[0032] Please refer to Figs. 1 to 3 , an automatic escalator skirt board protection switch test tool is provided, comprising: a base assembly 10, a top rod assembly 20 and a power assembly 30.
[0033] The top rod assembly 20 is provided with a pressing part 21 for pressing the skirt board 41, and the top rod assembly 20 is movably arranged on the base assembly 10;
[0034] The power assembly 30 is arranged on the base assembly 10 and is drivingly connected with the top rod assembly 20, and the top rod assembly 20 is configured to move towards the test direction relative to the base assembly 10 under the driving of the power assembly 30.
[0035] When testing, the base is placed on the escalator 40, the power assembly 30 drives the top rod assembly 20 to move towards the testing direction, so that the pressing part 21 of the top rod assembly 20 abuts against the skirt plate 41, the pressing part 21 simulates the extrusion of the foreign matter to the skirt plate 41, and the pressing part 21 extrudes the skirt plate 41 to make the skirt plate 41 deform to test whether the safety switch of the skirt plate 41 works.
[0036] The specific structure of the power assembly 30 can be selected according to actual needs, for example, in some optional embodiments, the power assembly 30 comprises a telescopic module 31 and a reset elastic member 32, the telescopic module 31 is drivingly connected with the top rod assembly 20 to drive the top rod assembly 20 to move along the testing direction relative to the base, and the telescopic module 31 extends to drive the top rod assembly 20 to move along the testing direction to perform the test.
[0037] The specific structure of the telescopic module 31 can be selected according to actual needs, for example, the telescopic module 31 can adopt a hydraulic pump, a pneumatic cylinder and the like, which are not limited to this example. In this embodiment, the telescopic module 31 adopts a manual hydraulic pump, which is arranged on the base and has an output end connected with the top rod assembly 20.
[0038] The reset elastic member 32 is connected with the base assembly 10 and the top rod assembly 20 respectively, and when the top rod assembly 20 moves towards the testing direction relative to the base assembly 10, the top rod assembly 20 drives the reset elastic member 32 to elastically deform. After the test is completed and the telescopic module 31 is retracted, the elastic force of the reset elastic member 32 drives the top rod assembly 20 to move along the reverse direction of the testing direction, so as to realize the automatic reset of the top rod assembly 20.
[0039] In addition, it should be noted that the power assembly 30 can also adopt an electric cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder and the like, and the automatic reset of the electric cylinder, the pneumatic cylinder or the hydraulic cylinder can eliminate the design of the reset elastic member 32.
[0040] In some optional embodiments, the base assembly 10 is provided with a guide 11 extending along the testing direction, and the top rod assembly 20 is slidingly matched with the guide 11, so as to improve the stability of the movement of the top rod assembly 20. In this embodiment, the inside of the top rod assembly 20 is further provided with a sliding channel extending along the testing direction, and part of the base extends into the sliding channel. Of course, the matching mode of the top rod assembly 20 and the base assembly 10 is not limited to this, and those skilled in the art can also select other appropriate structures according to the teaching of the present application,

Since the reset spring and the first limiting piece 12 are arranged on the first guide rod 111, and the second limiting piece 13 is arranged on the second guide rod 112, the position of the reset spring and the position of the second limiting piece 13 will not be limited by each other, avoiding the situation that the reset elastic piece 32 will be excessively squeezed when the first limiting piece 12, the second limiting piece 13 and the reset elastic piece 32 are arranged on the same guide rod at the same time.
[0044] In some optional embodiments, the first limiting piece 12 is movably connected with the first guide rod 111 and can move relative to the extension direction of the first guide rod 111, and the second limiting piece 13 is movably connected with the second guide rod 112 and can move relative to the extension direction of the second guide rod 112.

[0046] In some optional embodiments, the base assembly 10 is provided with a detector 14 and a prompter 15, the detector 14 is signal connected with the prompter 15, when the top rod assembly 20 moves to the protection position along the test direction, the top rod assembly 20 triggers the detector 14, after the detector 14 is triggered, the detector 14 will send a signal to the prompter 15, and the prompter 15 sends a prompt signal to remind the staff that the top rod assembly 20 is over-displaced and the skirt plate 41 is over-pressed. In the present embodiment, the first limiting member 12, the detector 14 and the second limiting member 13 are arranged in sequence along the test direction, the detector 14 and the prompter 15 are used as the first level protection measure, and the limiting of the second limiting member 13 is used as the second level protection measure, so that the damage of the skirt plate 41 caused by the over-pressing of the skirt plate 41 by the pressing part 21 is effectively avoided.
[0047] The specific structure of the detector 14 can be selected according to actual needs, for example, the detector 14 can be an infrared sensor, a photoelectric switch, a limit switch or a proximity switch, etc. In the present embodiment, the detector 14 is a limit switch.
