Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle controller technology, specifically to a testing device for vehicle controllers. Background Technology

[0002] The vehicle body controller, also known as the vehicle computer, is an electronic control unit used in automotive engineering to control the vehicle's electrical systems. It is an important component of a car. During the production process of the vehicle controller, testing equipment is required to test its performance.

[0003] Current vehicle controller testing equipment, such as the vehicle body controller testing equipment proposed in publication number CN222145426U, includes a testing platform and a tester. The testing platform is equipped with a positioning mechanism for fixing the vehicle body controller. Movable slots are provided on both the front and rear sides of the testing platform. A reciprocating mechanism is installed on the testing platform, comprising a lead screw, an L-shaped lead screw block, a servo motor, a movable frame, and two mounting seats. A data plug is installed in each mounting seat, and a data cable connected to the tester is installed at one end of the data plug. This device can quickly restrict and fix the position of the vehicle body controller through the positioning mechanism, placing the data port of the vehicle body controller in the corresponding position. Then, the reciprocating mechanism moves the data plug left and right, allowing the data plug to be quickly inserted and removed from the data port of the vehicle body controller, rapidly completing subsequent testing work without manual insertion and removal, saving time and effort, and improving the testing efficiency of the vehicle body controller.

[0004] Existing vehicle controller testing equipment, while saving time and effort by eliminating the need for manual plugging and unplugging before and after testing and improving the testing efficiency of vehicle controllers, has been found to require repeated disassembly and reassembly of the controller during the production and testing process because the controller needs to be clamped before testing. This makes it impossible to perform continuous assembly-line testing of the controller and is inconvenient to use. Therefore, we have proposed a vehicle controller testing device to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a testing device for a vehicle controller to solve the problems currently existing in the market as described in the background.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a testing device for a vehicle controller, comprising a frame, a conveyor belt disposed on the inner side of the frame, and supports equidistantly mounted on the conveyor belt, wherein...

[0007] The bracket is equipped with a controller body, and elastic clamping mechanisms for pre-fixing the controller body are provided on both sides of the bracket. A support frame is installed at the top center of the frame. A support plate is fixedly connected to the inner side of the support frame near the bottom. A testing machine is installed on the outer side of the support frame near the top. An electric telescopic rod is installed on the outer side of the support frame corresponding to the controller body. A plug is installed at one end of the electric telescopic rod located on the inner side of the support frame.

[0008] The plug is electrically connected to the testing mechanism. The support plate has symmetrical sliding grooves on both sides, and a sliding block is set in the sliding groove. The top and bottom ends of the sliding block are respectively fixedly connected to a top frame and a bottom frame. The bottom of the bottom frame is symmetrically fixedly connected to a clamping rod. A motor is installed on the top inner side of the support frame. A turntable is installed on the shaft end of the motor. The turntable has symmetrical transmission grooves running through both sides. The top frame is fixedly connected to the top of the corresponding transmission groove.

[0009] Preferably, the elastic clamping mechanism includes a fixed frame, with fixed frames symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of both sides of the support, a clamping frame provided on the inner side of the fixed frame, guide rod grooves symmetrically passing through the fixed frame, a guide rod fixedly connected to the clamping frame on the side corresponding to the guide rod groove, a spring sleeved on the guide rod between the clamping frame and the fixed frame, a sliding rod groove passing through the support corresponding to the position of the clamping frame, a sliding rod fixedly connected to the bottom end of the clamping frame corresponding to the sliding rod groove, a gear rotatably connected to the middle of the support near the conveyor belt, racks symmetrically arranged on both sides of the gear, and the ends of the racks fixedly connected to the corresponding sliding rods.

[0010] Preferably, the guide rod is a cylinder, and the outer diameter of the guide rod matches the inner diameter of the guide rod groove.

[0011] Preferably, the gears mesh with racks on both sides respectively.

[0012] Preferably, the clamping direction of the clamping rod is perpendicular to the clamping direction of the clamping frame.

[0013] Preferably, the transmission groove is arc-shaped, and the inner width of the transmission groove matches the outer diameter of the transmission rod.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] This invention, when testing a controller, features robotic arms at both ends of the frame. These arms place the controller to be tested onto a support, where an elastic clamping mechanism pre-fixes the controller body. A conveyor belt moves the controller body, and as it moves inside the support frame, a motor drives a turntable to rotate. The turntable, through a transmission groove and transmission rod, moves the base frame closer together, causing the base frame to clamp and fix the controller body. An electric telescopic rod then inserts a plug into a slot on the controller body. After testing, the conveyor belt moves the controller body out of the support frame, and the robotic arms remove the controller body. This vehicle controller testing equipment allows for continuous testing of the controller without the need for repeated manual disassembly and reassembly, effectively improving testing efficiency.

[0016] In this invention, after the controller body is placed on the bracket, the clamping frame elastically clamps the controller body with springs. Simultaneously, through the cooperation of gears and racks, the clamping frames on both sides can clamp the controller body in the middle position of the bracket. When clamping and fixing the controller body, the motor drives the turntable to rotate. The turntable drives the top and bottom frames on both sides to move closer together through the arc-shaped transmission groove and transmission rod. The bottom frame drives the clamping rod to fix the other two sides of the controller body. Since the controller body is pre-fixed in the middle position of the bracket, when the clamping rod clamps the other two sides of the controller body, it can fix the controller body in the exact center position of the bracket. Thus, through this clamping structure, the controller body can be positioned and fixed so that the electric telescopic rod can drive the plug to insert into the slot of the controller body.

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a testing device for a vehicle controller, including a frame 1, a conveyor belt 2 disposed on the inner side of the frame 1, and brackets 3 equidistantly mounted on the conveyor belt 2, wherein...

[0025] The bracket 3 is equipped with a controller body 4. The bracket 3 has elastic clamping mechanisms on both sides for pre-fixing the controller body 4. The top center of the frame 1 is equipped with a support frame 14. The support plate 15 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the support frame 14 near the bottom. The testing machine 16 is installed on the outer side of the support frame 14 near the top. The support frame 14 is equipped with an electric telescopic rod 17 corresponding to the outer side of the controller body 4. The electric telescopic rod 17 is equipped with a plug 18 at one end of the inner side of the support frame 14.

[0026] The plug 18 is electrically connected to the testing machine 16. The support plate 15 has symmetrical sliding grooves 19 on both sides. The sliding grooves 19 are equipped with sliding blocks 20. The top and bottom ends of the sliding blocks 20 are respectively fixedly connected to the top frame 21 and the bottom frame 22. The bottom of the bottom frame 22 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the clamping rods 23. The inner top of the support frame 14 is equipped with a motor 24. The shaft end of the motor 24 is equipped with a turntable 25. The turntable 25 has symmetrical transmission grooves 26 on both sides. The top frame 21 is fixedly connected to the top of the corresponding transmission groove 26 with a transmission rod 27.

[0027] When the controller needs to be tested, robotic arms are installed at both ends of the frame 1. The robotic arms place the controller to be tested on the support 3 and pre-fix the controller body 4 through the elastic clamping mechanism. The controller body 4 is moved by the conveyor belt 2. When the controller body 4 moves to the inside of the support frame 14, the motor 24 drives the turntable 25 to rotate. The turntable 25 drives the base frame 22 to move closer to each other through the transmission groove 26 and the transmission rod 27. The base frame 22 drives the clamping rod 23 to clamp and fix the controller body 4. Then, the electric telescopic rod 17 inserts the plug 18 into the slot on the controller body 4. After the test is completed by the testing machine 16, the conveyor belt 2 moves the controller body 4 out of the support frame 14. Then, the robotic arms remove the controller body 4. The testing equipment for this vehicle controller can perform continuous testing of the controller without the need for manual disassembly and reassembly of the controller, which effectively improves the testing efficiency of the controller.

[0028] Please see Figures 1 to 5 The elastic clamping mechanism includes a fixed frame 5. Fixed frames 5 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of both sides of the support 3. A clamping frame 6 is provided on the inner side of the fixed frame 5. A guide rod groove 7 is symmetrically passed through the fixed frame 5. A guide rod 8 is fixedly connected to the side of the clamping frame 6 corresponding to the guide rod groove 7. A spring 9 is sleeved on the guide rod 8 between the clamping frame 6 and the fixed frame 5. A sliding rod groove 10 is passed through the support 3 corresponding to the position of the clamping frame 6. A sliding rod 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the clamping frame 6 corresponding to the sliding rod groove 10. A gear 12 is rotatably connected to the middle of the support 3 near the conveyor belt 2. A rack 13 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the gear 12. The end of the rack 13 is fixedly connected to the corresponding sliding rod 11. The guide rod 8 is a cylinder, and the outer diameter of the guide rod 8 matches the inner diameter of the guide rod groove 7. The gear 12 meshes with the rack 13 on both sides respectively.

[0029] Please see Figures 1 to 5The clamping direction of the clamping rod 23 is perpendicular to the clamping direction of the clamping frame 6. The transmission groove 26 is arc-shaped, and the inner width of the transmission groove 26 matches the outer diameter of the transmission rod 27. After the controller body 4 is placed on the bracket 3, the clamping frame 6 uses the spring 9 to elastically clamp the controller body 4. At the same time, through the cooperation of the gear 12 and the rack 13, the two clamping frames 6 can clamp the controller body 4 in the middle position of the bracket 3. When clamping and fixing the controller body 4, the motor 24 drives the turntable 25 to rotate. The turntable 25 passes through... The arc-shaped transmission groove 26 and transmission rod 27 drive the top frame 21 and bottom frame 22 on both sides to move closer to each other, so that the bottom frame 22 drives the clamping rod 23 to fix the other two sides of the controller body 4. Since the controller body 4 is pre-fixed in the middle position of the bracket 3, when the clamping rod 23 clamps the other two sides of the controller body 4, it can fix the controller body 4 in the center position of the bracket 3. Thus, through this clamping structure, the controller body 4 can be positioned and fixed so that the electric telescopic rod 17 drives the plug 18 to be inserted into the slot of the controller body 4.

[0030] Working Principle: This vehicle controller testing equipment, when testing the controller, has robotic arms at both ends of the frame 1. The robotic arms place the controller to be tested onto the support 3, and the controller body 4 is pre-fixed by an elastic clamping mechanism. The conveyor belt 2 moves the controller body 4. When the controller body 4 moves to the inside of the support frame 14, the motor 24 drives the turntable 25 to rotate. The turntable 25, through the transmission groove 26 and transmission rod 27, moves the base frame 22 closer together, causing the base frame 22 to drive the clamping rod 23 to clamp and fix the controller body 4. Then, the electric telescopic rod 17 inserts the plug 18 into the slot on the controller body 4. After the test is completed by the testing machine 16, the conveyor belt 2 moves the controller body 4 out of the support frame 14, and then the robotic arms remove the controller body 4. This vehicle controller testing equipment allows for continuous testing of the controller without the need for repeated manual disassembly and reassembly, effectively improving efficiency. To improve the detection efficiency of the controller, after the controller body 4 is placed on the bracket 3, the clamping frame 6 uses spring 9 to elastically clamp the controller body 4. At the same time, through the cooperation of gear 12 and rack 13, the clamping frames on both sides 6 can clamp the controller body 4 in the middle position of the bracket 3. When clamping and fixing the controller body 4, the motor 24 drives the turntable 25 to rotate. The turntable 25 drives the top frame 21 and bottom frame 22 on both sides to move closer to each other through the arc-shaped transmission groove 26 and transmission rod 27. The bottom frame 22 drives the clamping rod 23 to fix the other two sides of the controller body 4. Since the controller body 4 is pre-fixed in the middle position of the bracket 3, when the clamping rod 23 clamps the other two sides of the controller body 4, it can fix the controller body 4 in the center position of the bracket 3. Thus, through this clamping structure, the controller body 4 can be positioned and fixed so that the electric telescopic rod 17 can drive the plug 18 to be inserted into the slot of the controller body 4.

[0031] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
