[0031] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The preferred embodiments of the present utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0032] Example 1: A durability testing fixture for a tailgate limiter, such as Figures 2-8 As shown, the system includes a base plate 1, a sliding mechanism 2, a tailgate side limiter mounting assembly 3, and a vehicle body side limiter mounting assembly 4. The sliding mechanism 2 includes two mounting seats 21, a hollow tube 22, two guide rods 23, a slider 24, and a cylindrical drive magnet 210 with strong magnetic properties to drive the slider. The mounting seats 21 are mounted on the base plate 1. The hollow tube 22 and the guide rods 23 are mounted between the two mounting seats 21. The two guide rods are located on both sides of the hollow tube. The cylindrical drive magnet 210 is placed inside the hollow tube 22. Ventilation ports 26 are installed at both ends of the hollow tube 22. The slider 24 is movably mounted on the hollow tube and the guide rods through bearings 212. The cylindrical drive magnet 210 can move inside the hollow tube 22 by the push of gas, thereby driving the slider 24 to move on the hollow tube 22 and the guide rods 23.

[0033] The vehicle side limiter mounting assembly 4 includes two L-shaped mounting brackets 41 and two vehicle side limiter mounting plates 42. The L-shaped mounting brackets 41 are provided with two transverse elongated mounting holes 411 and two longitudinal elongated mounting holes 412. The L-shaped mounting brackets 41 are mounted on the base plate 1 by screws and the transverse elongated mounting holes 411. The vehicle side limiter mounting plates 42 are mounted on the L-shaped mounting brackets 41 by screws and the longitudinal elongated mounting holes 412. The purpose of providing transverse elongated mounting holes 411 and longitudinal elongated mounting holes 412 on the L-shaped mounting brackets 41 is to facilitate the adjustment of the mounting position of the L-shaped mounting brackets 41 on the base plate 1 and the mounting position of the vehicle side limiter mounting plates 42 on the L-shaped mounting brackets 41. With minor modifications, this tooling can be used to conduct durability tests on tailgate limiters of various vehicle models.

[0034] The tailgate side limiter mounting assembly 3 includes a connecting plate 31 and two tailgate side limiter mounting plates 33 connected to both sides of the connecting plate via connecting rods 32. The connecting plate 31 is mounted on the slider 24 and moves synchronously with the slider. The function of the tailgate side limiter mounting assembly 3 is to drive the tailgate limiter components fixed on the tailgate side limiter mounting plates 33 to move. When the slider 24 is located on the mounting seat 21 side near the L-shaped mounting bracket 41, the tailgate limiter component (tailgate side limiter P1) mounted on the tailgate side limiter mounting plate 33 contacts the tailgate limiter component (body side limiter P2) mounted on the body side limiter mounting plate 42.

[0035] In this embodiment, two installation grooves 101 are further arranged on the bottom plate, and the two mounting seats 21 of the sliding mechanism are installed in the installation grooves 101, which is more conducive to positioning. As a variation, the installation grooves 101 can also not be arranged.

[0036] In this embodiment, rubber limiting blocks 29 and spring buffer pins 28 are further arranged on the mounting seat 21 of the sliding mechanism 2, which are used for buffering and limiting the sliding block 24, preventing the sliding block from colliding and damaging the mounting seat 21. Steel cylinders 27 are arranged on the sliding block 24 at positions opposite to the rubber limiting blocks and the spring buffer pins, that is, two steel cylinders 27 are arranged at the front end and the rear end of the sliding block respectively, and there are a total of four steel cylinders 27, so that the sliding block is more durable when colliding. An anti-rotation pin 211 is further arranged between the sliding block 24 and the bearing 212, mainly to reduce the friction when the sliding block slides. The sliding block is made of aluminum material, and the bearing is made of steel material. The cylindrical drive magnet 210 moves the sliding block 24 by attracting the bearing 212. The side surfaces of the two mounting seats are further provided with connecting side plates 25, which play a role in protecting and reinforcing the structure. As a variation, when the sliding block can be precisely controlled and will not collide with the mounting seat, the rubber limiting blocks 29, the spring buffer pins 28 and the steel cylinders 27 can also not be arranged.

[0037] In this embodiment, according to the needs of product installation height and product installation hole position of different vehicle tail door limiters, tail door side limiter mounting plates 33 and vehicle body side limiter mounting plates 42 of different sizes and shapes can be configured to improve applicability.

[0038] In this embodiment, the main mounting plate and the connecting plate can be made of light and durable aluminum material, with a service life of more than 10 years, and will not have problems such as damage to tooling precision or inability to use due to rust. The durable test tooling can meet the test in a high and low temperature environment of -30℃ to 80℃.

[0039] In this embodiment, a control box 6 is further included, and an air source is arranged in the control box. The air source is connected with the air passage interfaces 26 at both ends of the hollow pipe through the air pipes 5. A control module (this part is a purchased part) is further arranged in the control box. Switch buttons 61, emergency stop buttons 62, pressure maintaining time displays 63, test speed displays 64 and counting displays 65 are further arranged on the control box.

[0040] According to the durability test requirements of BT / SGMWJ 08227-2016, the limiter assembly (tail door side and vehicle body side cooperation) simulates the real vehicle installation state, and the bench durability test is 40000 times, without deformation, falling off phenomenon, and normal function.

[0041] Test speed: (1.8±0.1) m / s, and the test is placed at room temperature for 0.5 h. The positioner is moved from the starting position to the fit position for 3 s, and then from the fit position to the starting position for 5 s, which is one cycle.

[0042] Experimental process: open the switch, install the tail door side positioner P1 on the tail door side positioner mounting plate 33, install the vehicle body side positioner P2 on the vehicle body side positioner mounting plate 42, and set the constant running speed according to the requirements. In the temperature box, the tail door side positioner P1 is moved from the starting position (as shown in Figure 2 , Figure 3 ) to the fit position (as shown in Figure 8 ) for 3 s, and the interference between the vehicle body side positioner P2 and the tail door side positioner P1 is about 1 mm. Then, it is moved from the fit position to the starting position for 5 s, which is one cycle. After several stable trial runs, the counter is reset to start moving. When the required number of experiments is reached, the temperature box is opened and the switch is turned off, and the experiment at a certain temperature requirement is completed.

[0043] The entire durability test needs to be conducted at normal temperature, high temperature, high humidity, low temperature, and normal temperature for N cycles. The principle of each movement is the same, except that the set parameters are different. The specific requirements are based on the experimental requirements of each project.

[0044] The tail door positioner (tail door side and vehicle body side) bench durability test is N times, without deformation or falling off, and the function is normal. At this time, it can be determined that the product durability test is passed.
