It is easy to understand that any end of the connecting rod with the same or similar test requirement is applicable to the present application.
[0031] At present, it is necessary to further develop the test device of the connecting rod to simulate the load fatigue and wear of the connecting rod under actual working conditions.
[0032] The inventor has conducted in-depth research and proposed a connecting rod fatigue test device 200.
[0033] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 , comprising a bottom plate 210, a vertical plate 211, a small end fixing part 220 and a loading part 230; wherein the vertical plate 211 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 210 and comprises a first side wall 212 and a second side wall 213, and is provided with a first through hole 214; the small end fixing part 220 comprises a limiting shell 221 and a first cover plate 222; the limiting shell 221 is fixedly connected to the first side wall 212 and is provided with an arc-shaped through port 223 for accommodating the small end 110 of the connecting rod, and is provided with a clearance port 224 for avoiding the rod body 130 of the connecting rod at the arc opening side of the arc-shaped through port 223; the arc-shaped through port 223 is through the first through hole 214; the first cover plate 222 is connected to the limiting shell 221 in an openable and closable manner, such as being connected by bolts 225, or being connected by hinging, sliding (not shown) and the like.
