[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0028] like Figures 1-2 As shown, the first embodiment of this utility model provides a double push rod joint locking mechanism, including at least two joint arms 1, with adjacent joint arms 1 connected by a rotation locking structure 2.
[0029] A through mounting hole is provided at the connection of adjacent joint arms 1. The rotary locking structure 2 includes a screw structure 201 set in the mounting hole. A pair of locking blocks 202 are screwed onto the screw structure 201. The position of the locking blocks 202 corresponds one-to-one with the joint arms 1. Each locking block 202 has an inclined surface 203 on the side near the corresponding joint arm. A through hole is provided in each joint arm along its length. A push rod 204 is provided in the through hole. The push rod 204 has an inclined end head 205 that matches the inclined surface 203 of the locking block at one end near the corresponding locking block 202. A ball head 206 is movably connected to the other end away from the locking block 202. A retainer 207 is provided on the joint arm 1 at the end away from the locking block 202. The ball head 206 is set in the retainer 207.
[0030] One end of the screw structure 201 is provided with a knob 208 for adjusting the screw.
[0031] A positioning spring 209 is provided on the outer circumference of the end of the joint arm 1 away from the locking block 202, and the sleeve 207 is secured to the end of the joint arm 1 by the positioning spring 209.
[0032] The outer end of the sleeve 207 is provided with a relief groove 2071, and a connecting rod 210 extending out of the relief groove 2071 is fixedly connected to the ball head 206. The relief groove 2071 is formed by a through hole at the outer end of the sleeve 207 and a U-shaped groove on the outer circumference of the sleeve 207. This structure ensures that the connecting rod 210 has a certain rotation angle relative to the ball head, making it easier to adjust and install. The connecting rod 210 is used to fix the device on any equipment, or to install data acquisition equipment such as sensors and cameras.
[0033] Working principle and process of the device:
[0034] By adjusting the screw rotation using knob 208, the locking block 202 can be moved closer to or further away from the inclined end 205. When moved away, adjacent joint arms 1 can rotate relative to each other, thus adjusting the angle. When moved closer, the two locking blocks 202 press against the corresponding inclined end 205, causing the corresponding push rod 204 to simultaneously press against the ball head 206. Since the ball head 206 is limited by the retaining sleeve 207, adjacent joint arms 1 are thus compressed and positioned. Through the coordinated action of the two push rods 204, a fast, simple, and reliable locking effect is achieved.
[0035] This device can be used as an adjustment bracket, a test bracket, a mechanical locking mechanism, etc.
[0036] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the automotive glass limiting test device using the above-mentioned double push rod joint locking mechanism includes a test chamber 3 for performing limiting tests on the window glass of the test door 4. At least two double push rod joint locking mechanisms are provided on the test chamber 3. One end of one double push rod joint locking mechanism is close to the upper limit position of the window of the test door 4, and an upper position sensor 5 is fixedly connected to it. The other double push rod joint locking mechanism is close to the lower limit position of the window of the test door 4, and a lower position sensor 6 is fixedly connected to it.
[0037] The test chamber 3 includes a door fixing frame 301, which is a rectangular frame structure. The rectangular frame structure has a placement cavity for placing the door 4 to be tested. The door fixing frame 301 is equipped with a driving device 302 and a controller 303 for driving the glass limit test. The driving device 302, the upper position sensor 5, and the lower position sensor 6 are all connected to the controller 303 in a circuit.
[0038] Both the upper position sensor 5 and the lower position sensor 6 are infrared sensors, and the aluminum information feedback patch 7 is located at the upper position infrared sensor of the window of the car door 4 to be tested.
[0039] The driving device 302 is a drive motor.
[0040] The aluminum information feedback patch 7 is photosensitive aluminum paper.
[0041] Working principle and process of the device:
[0042] (1) Fix the test door 4 inside the placement cavity of the test chamber 3;
[0043] (2) Fix two double push rod joint locking mechanisms on the test chamber 3 and close to the door 4 to be tested using clamps or bolts. One end of one double push rod joint locking mechanism is close to the upper limit position of the window of the door 4 to be tested, and the other end of the double push rod joint locking mechanism is close to the lower limit position of the window of the door 4 to be tested.
[0044] (3) Install an upper position sensor 5 on the connecting rod of the corresponding double push rod joint locking mechanism near the upper limit position of the window of the door to be tested, and install a corresponding aluminum information feedback patch 7 on the upper limit position of the door glass; install a lower position sensor 6 on the connecting rod of the corresponding double push rod joint locking mechanism near the lower limit position of the window of the door to be tested.
[0045] (4) The controller 303 controls the drive motor to work, driving the window glass of the test door 4 to rise to a certain height. When the upper position sensor 5 senses the photosensitive aluminum foil light, it will light up and give a signal to stop the motor. After waiting for 5 seconds, the motor reverses and begins to descend. When the glass descends to a certain position, the lower position sensor 6 senses the photosensitive aluminum foil light and it will light up and give a signal to stop the motor. After waiting for 5 seconds, the motor reverses and begins to rise. This cycle repeats continuously, and the glass test can then begin.
[0046] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to restrict the present utility model in any way. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model and based on the technical essence of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
