[0024] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a faucet testing device, including a base plate 1 and a faucet 5. A vertical plate 2 is fixed to the rear end of the base plate 1, and a testing mechanism 3 is provided on the vertical plate 2 for testing the button fatigue of the faucet 5. The testing mechanism 3 includes:

[0025] The drive assembly 31 includes a bearing 311 fixed to the upper end of the front surface of the vertical plate 2, an eccentric wheel 312 rotatably mounted inside the bearing 311, a crank 313 rotatably mounted on the outer edge of the eccentric wheel 312, an actuator 314 mounted on the lower end of the crank 313, and a limit seat 316 fixed to the front surface of the vertical plate 2.

[0026] The fixing assembly 32 includes a cylinder seat 321 fixed to the top of the base plate 1, a cylinder frame 322 fixed to the top of the cylinder seat 321, a plurality of shaft grooves 323 opened on the upper outer edge of the cylinder frame 322, a clamping arm 324 rotatably mounted inside the shaft grooves 323, a clamp 325 fixed to the upper end of the clamping arm 324, a protrusion 326 fixed to the inner end of the clamping arm 324, a cylinder 327 installed inside the cylinder seat 321, a guide plate 328 fixed to the output end of the cylinder 327, and the protrusion 326 is located inside the outer wall of the guide plate 328.

[0027] In this embodiment, by placing the faucet 5 on top of the cylinder 322, and then driving the guide plate 328 downward through the output end of the cylinder 327, the guide plate 328 drives the upper end of the clamping arm 324 to flip inward through the protrusion 326, so that the clamp 325 at the upper end of the clamping arm 324 fixes the base of the faucet 5, thereby quickly fixing the faucet 5 on the fixing component 32. Similarly, by driving the guide plate 328 downward through the output end of the cylinder 327, the fixing of the faucet 5 can be released.

[0028] Specifically, the actuator 314 includes a connecting cylinder 3141 pivotally connected to the lower end of the crank 313, and the connecting cylinder 3141 is slidably installed inside the limiting seat 316. A threaded rod 3142 is threadedly installed at the lower end of the connecting cylinder 3141, and a pressure head 3143 is installed at the bottom of the threaded rod 3142.

[0029] In this embodiment, the length of the connecting cylinder 3141 extended from the threaded rod 3142 can be adjusted by rotating the threaded rod 3142, so that it can be adapted and adjusted to faucets 5 of different specifications and heights.

[0030] Specifically, the actuator 314 also includes a buffer pad 3144 installed at the bottom of the pressure head 3143, and a bolt 3145 threaded at the lower end of the threaded rod 3142 for fixing the pressure head 3143 and the buffer pad 3144.

[0031] In this embodiment, the pressure head 3143 can be disassembled and installed from the threaded rod 3142, making it easy to replace the pressure head 3143 with the button of the faucet 5.

[0032] Specifically, the drive assembly 31 also includes a motor 315 mounted on the outer wall of the bearing 311, and the output end of the motor 315 is fixed to the center of the eccentric wheel 312.

[0033] In this embodiment, after the faucet 5 is fixed by the fixing component 32, the output end of the motor 315 drives the eccentric wheel 312 to rotate. The motor 315 drives the actuator 314 to move up and down in a reciprocating motion along the inside of the limit seat 316 through the crank 313, so that the pressure head 3143 in the actuator 314 presses the button of the faucet 5 repeatedly, thereby realizing the fatigue test of the button of the faucet 5.

[0036] Specifically, reinforcing ribs 4 are fixed on both sides of the top of the base plate 1, and the reinforcing ribs 4 are fixed between the common vertical plane of the base plate 1 and the upright plate 2.

[0037] In this embodiment, the strength of the joint surface between the base plate 1 and the vertical plate 2 can be improved by the reinforcing rib 4, so as to avoid easy bending and deformation when subjected to force.

[0038] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: First, the faucet 5 is placed on the top of the barrel frame 322, and then the guide plate 328 is driven to move downward through the output end of the cylinder 327. The guide plate 328 drives the upper end of the clamping arm 324 to flip inward through the protrusion 326, so that the clamp 325 at the upper end of the clamping arm 324 fixes the base of the faucet 5, thereby quickly fixing the faucet 5 on the fixing component 32.

[0039] Then, the eccentric wheel 312 is driven to rotate by the output end of the motor 315. The motor 315 drives the actuator 314 to move up and down in a reciprocating motion along the inside of the limit seat 316 through the crank 313, so that the pressure head 3143 in the actuator 314 presses the button of the faucet 5 repeatedly, thereby realizing the fatigue test of the button of the faucet 5.
