[0029] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0030] A touchscreen function test box for a multi-H-bridge controlled electric valve, such as Figures 1 to 17 As shown, it includes a multi-channel test box 1, which is connected to an electric valve 2. A touch screen 3 is installed on the multi-channel test box 11. The multi-channel test box 1 is connected to a power adapter 4 and also to a CAN transceiver 5.
[0031] In this embodiment, there are six electric valves 2, and the number of electric valves can be set according to actual needs.
[0032] The multi-channel test box 1 consists of a front panel 6, a rear panel 7, a left side panel 8, and a right side panel 12. The front panel 6, rear panel 7, left side panel 8, and right side panel 12 are all made of aluminum to ensure the durability of the test box.
[0033] The touch screen 3 is mounted on the front panel 6 of the test box, and the left side panel 8 of the test box is equipped with an aviation plug 9 that connects to the electric valve 2.
[0034] The right side panel 12 of the test box is equipped with a main switch 13, an adapter plug 14, a power indicator light 15, an RS232 interface 16, a mode indicator light 17, a mode selection button 18, and a mode confirmation button 19.
[0035] The power adapter 4 is connected to the multi-function test box 1 via the adapter plug 14 and supplies power to the multi-function test box 1, the power indicator light 15, and the mode indicator light 17.
[0036] The CAN transceiver 5 is connected to the multi-function test box 1 via the RS232 interface 16.
[0037] The touch screen 3 includes a touch screen front panel 10, a touch screen back panel 11, and a T5L main control chip, which can display test information in real time and facilitate the selection and control of operation modes.
[0038] The front panel 10 of the touch screen is equipped with a display screen, which has corresponding selection buttons for PWM mode, opening control mode, voltage control mode, random control mode and one-key detection mode.
[0039] The touchscreen back panel 11 is equipped with an SD card interface, a PGT05 interface, an extended FLASH interface, an RTC module, a buzzer interface, and a touchscreen interface.
[0040] Test box 1 contains a control circuit board based on the S32K144 main control chip, a current detection chip, a power control chip, and an SD card.
[0041] The S32K144 main control chip, as the core of the overall computing and control, ensures the efficient operation and precise control of the test box.
[0042] The control circuit board includes a power control circuit, an H-bridge motor drive circuit, a current detection circuit, a main control chip (MCU) circuit, a voltage detection circuit, a power indicator circuit, a mode indicator circuit, an SD card storage circuit, a touch screen interface circuit, and a CAN chip circuit.
[0043] The H-bridge motor drive circuit is connected to the aviation plug 9. By setting up six sets of H-bridge motor drive circuits to control the electric valve 2 respectively, simultaneous multi-channel control can be achieved.
[0044] The current detection circuit is connected to the current detection chip, and the voltage detection circuit is connected to the voltage detection chip. The current detection chip and the power control chip can modify the motor current and power supply status in real time for monitoring and control, ensuring the stable operation of the equipment.
[0045] The CAN chip circuit is connected to the CAN transceiver 5.
[0046] The mode indicator circuit is mainly used to display the current working mode, making it convenient for users to operate and monitor intuitively.
[0047] The SD card storage circuit is used to store test data and results, facilitating subsequent data analysis and processing by users.
[0048] In use, first, connect the power adapter 4 to the adapter interface 14 of the multi-functional test box 1 to provide power to the test box. Then, connect the six sets of aviation plugs 9 one by one to the electric valve 2 under test. The test box can then establish communication with these six electric valves at the same time, preparing for subsequent tests.
[0049] Then, press the main switch 13. The test box will start, and the power indicator light 15 will turn green, indicating that the test box is functioning normally. At the same time, the touch screen 3 will also light up, displaying an intuitive graphical interface.
[0050] The type of electric valve 2 can be selected by pressing the mode selection button 18 on the test box. At the same time, the mode indicator light 17 will change accordingly. The red light represents a PWM type valve, the green light corresponds to a CAN type valve, and the blue light represents a non-intelligent valve. After selecting the valve type, press the mode confirmation button 19, and the test box will automatically lock the mode to ensure consistency in subsequent operations.
[0051] Taking a non-intelligent valve as an example, after selecting the valve type as a non-intelligent valve, a series of control mode buttons will be displayed on the touch screen 3, including PWM mode, opening control mode, voltage control mode, random control mode and one-key detection mode.
[0052] In PWM mode, the duty cycle can be adjusted in real time via a slider or a digital input box to achieve precise control of valve action.
[0053] In the opening control mode, the target opening value can be set directly by the touch screen, and the system provides real-time feedback on the current opening.
[0054] In voltage control mode, the target voltage can be adjusted by inputting values on the touch screen 3, and the system displays and controls the valve voltage in real time.
[0055] The random control mode sets a random rate of change in valve opening, which can simulate complex working conditions in real-world applications.
[0056] The one-click detection mode can automatically operate the valve to the maximum and minimum positions, and the system collects and displays key voltage values to facilitate troubleshooting.
[0057] The touchscreen allows for simultaneous application of the above modes to six sets of electric valves, enabling parallel control. Simply set the parameters for each valve individually on the touchscreen, and the test box will execute synchronously, greatly improving testing efficiency.
[0058] After the test is completed, turn off the main switch of the test box, disconnect the connection between the aviation plug 9 and the electric valve 2, and unplug the power adapter 4 to ensure that the equipment is in a safe state.
[0059] This utility model provides a touch screen functional test box for multi-H-bridge controlled electric valves. It features simple operation, precise control, stable operation, and diverse functions, making it suitable for testing and controlling various electric valves. By installing a touch screen on the test box and introducing touch display control technology, the operation process is simplified and the operation difficulty is reduced. It can also control multiple electric valves simultaneously for precise control testing, greatly improving work efficiency and accuracy. This meets the various needs of actual production inspection, testing, and experimentation. Furthermore, the use of a robust and durable aluminum metal shell and the design of the internal circuitry ensure the long-term stable operation and reliability of the equipment.
