Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0023] See Figures 1-6 As shown, it includes a shell assembly 1, a drive shell 2 is installed at one end of the shell assembly 1, a worm gear assembly 3 is installed in the drive shell 2, one end of the worm of the worm gear assembly 3 is connected to a rotating wheel 5, a drive screw 6 is provided in the shell assembly 1, one end of the drive screw 6 is arranged through the drive shell 2, and the worm wheel in the worm gear assembly 3 is provided with an internal thread, and is connected to the drive screw 6 through the thread; a booster lever 8 is rotatably installed at the other end of the shell assembly 1, the bottom end of the booster lever 8 is connected to the drive connector 7 through a rotating shaft, one end of the drive screw 6 is connected to the drive connector 7 through a thread, and the top of the booster lever 8 is connected to the mounting rod assembly through a movable rotating shaft, a standard sensor 12 and a sensor to be tested 14 are installed in series in the mounting rod assembly, a transversely arranged positioning rod 16 is connected to the front end of the mounting rod assembly, and positioning grooves 17 are respectively provided on the two side shells of the shell assembly 1, and the positioning rods 16 are respectively clamped in the positioning grooves 17;

[0024] The booster lever 8 is an L-shaped lever, which is rotatably connected to the housing assembly 1 via a rotating shaft 9. The booster lever 8 is an asymmetric lever, and the end connected to the drive connector 7 is a long arm, and the end connected to the mounting rod assembly is a short arm;

[0025] The mounting rod assembly includes a connector 11 rotatably connected to the booster lever 8 via a movable rotating shaft 10, a standard sensor 12 being connected to the front end of the connector 11, a connecting rod 13 being connected to the front end of the sensor to be tested 14, a connector 2 15 being connected to the front end of the sensor to be tested 14, and a positioning rod 16 being provided in the head of the front end of the connector 2 15; the standard sensor 12 and the sensor to be tested 14 are both on the same axis after installation;

[0026] The ends of the connector 2 15, the connecting rod 13 and the connector 1 11 connected to the standard sensor 12 and the sensor to be tested 14 are all threaded, and both ends of the standard sensor 12 and the sensor to be tested 14 are installed through threads;

[0027] A wrench connector 4 for quickly connecting a wrench is installed on the end of the worm in the worm gear assembly 3 opposite to the rotating wheel 5.

[0028] The principle and use process of this utility model:

[0029] During calibration, first lift the mounting rod assembly upwards and support it under the connecting rod 13 or the movable shaft 10 with a support to prevent it from falling. Then install the sensor 14 to be tested and install the second connector 15. Then remove the support and lower the mounting rod assembly so that the positioning rod 16 enters the positioning groove 17 for horizontal limit. Connect the standard sensor 12 and the sensor 14 to be tested respectively, and then rotate the wheel 5. The speed is proportionally reduced and the torque is increased through the worm gear assembly 3. Then the worm gear drives the driving screw 6 to move through the internal thread to further decelerate. While moving, the driving screw 6 pulls the driving connector 7, so that the lower end of the boosting lever 8 is pulled forward. The boosting lever 8 rotates around the rotating shaft 9, and the upper end begins to pull obliquely upward. Due to the different force arms, the pulling force transmitted to the movable shaft 10 is amplified again, and then the pulling force is applied to the sensor 14 to be tested and the standard sensor 12. At this time, the readings of the two sensors are compared, and it is determined whether the sensor 14 to be tested meets the requirements according to the calibration requirements.

[0030] In the case where a greater force needs to be applied to the sensor and it is difficult to rotate the wheel 5, an extended wrench can be used, connected to the wrench connector 4, and then the wrench can be rotated to ensure that sufficient force is applied to the sensor.

Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
