Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of machinery, in particular to a bracket used for steering wheel testing. Background Art
[0002] The steering system is a critical component in a vehicle. Testing its performance in a fully-assembled vehicle ensures a comfortable driving experience for the driver. When the test steering wheel is connected to the vehicle, the inner ring of the test steering wheel sensor must rotate synchronously with the vehicle, while the outer ring remains stationary to obtain test data.
[0003] During traditional testing, testers must manually hold the outer rim of the test steering wheel stationary while rotating the inner rim, all while operating a computer. Any rotation of the outer rim requires retesting, which not only fails to guarantee test accuracy but also reduces test efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to design a bracket for steering wheel testing to effectively fix the outer ring of the test steering wheel during the test, freeing up one hand of the tester to do other work, thereby ensuring the smooth progress of the steering wheel test and improving the test accuracy and efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a bracket for steering wheel testing to effectively fix the outer ring of the test steering wheel during the test, freeing up one hand of the tester to do other work, thereby ensuring the smooth progress of the steering wheel test and improving the test accuracy and efficiency.
[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model is a bracket for steering wheel testing, including a steering wheel fixing block, a connecting block, a fixing rod, an adjustment block, a fastener, a suction cup, and a base. A suction cup is installed on one side of the upper end of the base, and the other side of the upper end of the base is connected to one end of the fixing rod. An adjusting block is provided on the outer sleeve of the fixing rod. After the fastener passes through the adjusting block, it is connected to the adjusting block. The adjusting block is mounted on the outside of the fixing rod. A connecting block is embedded in the end of the fixing rod away from the base. The outer end of the connecting block is connected to the steering wheel fixing block by a rotating shaft, and the steering wheel fixing block is connected to the outer ring of the test steering wheel.
[0007] The suction cup is attached to the test vehicle.
[0008] The other end of the fixing rod 1 and the other end of the fixing rod 2 are installed with a limiting block.
[0009] Compared to existing technologies, this new device can secure the outer rim of the test steering wheel during testing, freeing up one hand for the tester to complete other tasks. This ensures smooth testing and improves test accuracy and efficiency. The bracket is retractable and rotatable to meet the testing requirements of steering wheels of different vehicle models. It is also disassembled for easy portability and universality. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0010] Figure 1 It is a structural diagram of the present utility model.
[0011] Figure 2 This is an exploded view of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0012] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0013] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 The utility model is a bracket for steering wheel testing, including a steering wheel fixing block, a connecting block, a fixing rod, an adjusting block, a fastener, a suction cup, and a base. A suction cup 1 is installed on one side of the upper end of the base 2, and the other side of the upper end of the base 2 is connected to one end of a fixing rod 31. An adjusting block 61 is provided on the outer sleeve of the fixing rod 31. After the fastener 4 passes through the adjusting block 61, it is connected to the adjusting block 62. The adjusting block 62 is sleeved on the outside of the fixing rod 32. A connecting block 7 is embedded in the end of the fixing rod 32 away from the base 2. The outer end of the connecting block 7 is connected to the steering wheel fixing block 8 by a rotating shaft. The steering wheel fixing block 8 is connected to the outer ring of the test steering wheel.
[0014] The suction cup 1 is adsorbed on the test vehicle. In order to ensure the effectiveness of fixation, the suction cup can be pressed to remove air and then adsorbed to achieve the effect of fixing the bracket and the test vehicle.
[0015] A limit block 5 is installed at the other end of the fixing rod 1 31 and the other end of the fixing rod 2 32 to limit the extreme positions of the adjustment block 1 61 and the adjustment block 2 62 on the fixing rod 1 31 and the fixing rod 2 32 respectively, to prevent the adjustment block 1 61 and the adjustment block 2 62 from falling off the fixing rod 1 31 or the fixing rod 2 32.
[0016] During operation, the present invention adjusts the angle between the steering wheel fixing block 8 and the connecting block 7 by rotating the steering wheel fixing block 8, adjusts the positions of the adjustment block 1 61 and the adjustment block 2 62 on the fixing rod 1 31 and the fixing rod 2 32 respectively, and after adjusting the angles of the adjustment block 1 61 and the adjustment block 2 62, the adjustment block 1 61 and the adjustment block 2 62 are locked with the fastener 4. Because there is a certain damping between the adjustment block 1 61 and the fixing rod 1 31, and between the adjustment block 2 62 and the fixing rod 2 32, no relative sliding will occur after the adjustment is completed and during the test process. Finally, the suction cup 1 is pressed to expel air and then adsorbed on the test vehicle, and the outer ring of the test steering wheel is fixed through the steering wheel fixing block 8, so that it does not rotate during the test.
[0017] This new device secures the outer rim of the test steering wheel during testing, freeing up one hand for the tester to complete other tasks, ensuring smooth testing and improving both accuracy and efficiency. The bracket is retractable and rotatable, meeting the testing requirements of steering wheels of different vehicle models. It is also detachable for portability and universality.
