Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of testing equipment technology, and in particular to a test chamber for simulating fogging of automobile taillights. Background Technology
[0002] The automotive headlight fogging test is an important test designed to verify the fogging state inside the headlights under full vehicle usage conditions. By simulating the use of the vehicle under different environmental conditions, it evaluates the sealing performance and anti-fogging performance of the vehicle's headlights to ensure driving safety and improve the driving experience.
[0003] Automotive sealing refers to the vehicle's ability to prevent external substances from entering the vehicle's interior when all components are closed. The taillight fogging test assesses whether fogging occurs during vehicle lighting, indirectly reflecting the vehicle's sealing performance. A well-sealed vehicle effectively prevents moisture and other dampness from entering the taillights, maintaining clear visibility and improving driving safety. While a temperature and humidity test chamber is needed to simulate the environment in which taillights operate, current temperature and humidity test chambers can only perform static tests on taillights and cannot simulate the impact of vibrations during vehicle operation on the taillight's sealing performance, thus limiting their practicality. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention provides a test chamber for simulating fogging of automotive taillights, which solves the problem that existing temperature and humidity test chambers can only conduct static tests on automotive taillights and cannot simulate the impact of bumps generated during vehicle operation on the sealing of automotive taillights, resulting in low practicality.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A test chamber for simulating fogging of automotive taillights includes a test chamber comprising an outer chamber, an inner chamber bolted to the outer chamber, and a partition bolted to the inner wall of the inner chamber. Humidifiers are bolted to both inner walls of the inner chamber. A heating mechanism is provided on the bottom inner wall of the outer chamber. The heating mechanism includes a support plate bolted to the bottom inner wall of the outer chamber, two mounting plates bolted to the outer walls of the support plates, several fans bolted to the bottom outer walls of the two mounting plates, and four connecting rods bolted to the outer walls of the support plates. The enclosure contains a block and several ceramic heating rods. The inner chamber is equipped with a vibration mechanism, which includes a servo motor bolted to one outer wall of the outer chamber, a connecting shaft connected to one end of the servo motor output shaft via a coupling, a cam connected to the outer wall of the connecting shaft via a pin, a slide plate abutting against the outer wall of the cam, and a connecting plate bolted to one outer wall of the slide plate. A reset mechanism is provided above the slide plate, which includes a mounting block bolted to one outer wall of the partition, several sliding rods that pass through and slide on the top outer wall of the mounting block, and several reset springs that are sleeved on the lower outer wall of the sliding rods.
[0007] Preferably, a baffle is bolted to one side of the inner wall of the outer box, and one side of the baffle abuts against one side of the outer wall of the inner box. Several ventilation holes are opened on the inner walls of the bottom of the inner box on both sides of the partition. A box door is hinged to one side of the outer wall of the outer box, and an observation window is embedded in the outer wall of the box door.
[0008] Preferably, the top of the support plate abuts against the bottom outer wall of the inner box, the bottom of the four connecting blocks are respectively bolted to the bottom inner wall of the outer box, and the four connecting blocks are respectively bolted to the outer walls on both sides of the two mounting plates. A number of ceramic heating rods are respectively located on both sides of the support plate, and the number of ceramic heating rods are respectively bolted to the outer wall on the opposite side of the four connecting blocks.
[0009] Preferably, exhaust pipes are fixedly installed on the inner walls of the top of the inner box on both sides of the partition, and the upper parts of the two exhaust pipes pass through and are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the top of the outer box, and pressure relief valves are embedded in the two exhaust pipes.
[0010] The above scheme uses two humidifiers to humidify the sealed space consisting of the inner chamber, partition, and door. At the same time, several ceramic heating rods on both sides of the mounting plate are connected to two PID temperature controllers. The operation of the ceramic heating rods generates heat, and multiple fans operate to deliver the heat to the sealed space on both sides of the partition of the inner chamber, thereby realizing temperature zone control inside the inner chamber to simulate the environment inside and outside the vehicle.
[0011] Preferably, one end of the connecting shaft passes through and is connected to the inner wall of the inner box via a bearing, and the other end of the connecting shaft is connected to the outer wall of the partition via a bearing. A slide is provided on the outer wall of the partition, and the slide plate is slidably installed in the slide. The connecting plate abuts against the outer wall of the partition.
[0012] Preferably, the bottom ends of several slide rods are respectively bolted to the top outer wall of the slide plate, and limit rings are screwed onto the upper outer wall of several slide rods.
[0013] The above method involves using bolts to mount the taillight mounting template onto the connecting plate, and then mounting the taillight onto the mounting template. Subsequently, the output shaft of the servo motor rotates, driving the connecting shaft and the cam to rotate. The cam drives the slide plate to move along the slide rail and squeezes multiple return springs. Then, under the tension of the return springs, the slide plate returns to its original position, thus simulating the bumps generated by the vehicle during driving.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0015] The taillight mounting template is installed on the connecting plate using bolts, and the taillight is then mounted on the mounting template. Subsequently, the output shaft of the servo motor rotates, driving the connecting shaft and cam to rotate. The cam drives the slide plate to move along the slide rail and compresses multiple return springs. Then, under the tension of the return springs, the slide plate returns to its original position, thus simulating the bumps generated during vehicle operation. This allows for the simulation of bumps generated during driving when testing the taillight for fogging, thereby detecting the impact of bumps on the sealing performance of the car taillight and improving its practicality.
