Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of spark plug testing technology. More specifically, this utility model relates to a spark plug calibration device. Background Technology

[0002] Aircraft spark plugs (ignition sources) are primarily used in piston-engine aircraft. Their function is to generate an electric spark at the appropriate time within the engine's combustion chamber to ignite the air-fuel mixture. The performance of the spark plug directly affects the engine's operating condition. Accurately determining whether the spark plug is functioning correctly is crucial to ensuring the stable operation of the aircraft engine. Spark plug testing instruments can detect whether a spark is being generated by the spark plug. This is achieved by applying a high voltage to the spark plug and observing whether a spark jumps between the electrodes, thus determining whether the spark plug's ignition function is normal.

[0003] The utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN214754683U discloses an ignition testing device, which includes a testing port, a positioning sleeve, a high-voltage indicator light, a power indicator light, a testing body, a control switch, a power interface, a protective cover, and a docking port. The device directly observes the spark plug under test through an observation lens to observe the spark condition of the spark plug.

[0004] However, the protective cover of this device is transparent and the spark plug is observed directly through the lens. The observation effect is greatly affected by the environment. If there is strong light interference in the test environment, the test effect will be greatly affected, resulting in misjudgment and hindering the smooth progress of the test. Furthermore, observing the spark directly through the lens is more suitable for testing devices with a small body and only one or two test ports. For testing devices with a large body and many test ports, it is not convenient to directly observe the spark by corresponding to the best observation position through the lens. Utility Model Content

[0005] One object of this invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems and / or defects, and to provide the advantages that will be described later.

[0006] To achieve these objectives and other advantages of this utility model, an electric nozzle calibration device is provided, comprising: a calibration chamber with an observation window, a calibration mechanism disposed within the calibration chamber for calibrating the electric nozzle, and an air supply assembly connected to the calibration mechanism to provide compressed air. The calibration mechanism includes: a sealed chamber connected to the air supply assembly, multiple detection probes connected to the electric nozzle, and a power supply assembly for providing ignition voltage to the electric nozzle. The sealed chamber and the observation window are not positioned opposite each other.

[0012] The pipeline connecting the four-way connector to the pressure gauge I is equipped with a three-way connector I, and the other connector of the three-way connector I is connected to the pressure reducing valve through the air conditioning valve I;

[0013] The output end of the pressure reducing valve is connected to the sealed chamber through a three-way connector II, and the other end of the three-way connector II is connected to the pressure gauge II through a three-way connector III.

[0014] The other connector of the three-way connector III is connected to a cooling valve II, and the other end of the cooling valve II is connected to the outside atmosphere.

[0015] Preferably, a support frame is provided below the verification box to support it;

[0016] The support frame is equipped with rollers at its lower part;

[0017] The calibration box has a handle on its side.

[0018] Preferably, the top of the calibration box is provided with a cover that is rotatably connected by a hinge.

[0019] This utility model has at least the following beneficial effects: by setting a reflector, the spark light from the electrical nozzle is reflected to the observation window for observation, avoiding the observation window and the position of the electrical nozzle spark being opposite each other, avoiding light interference from the test environment, and facilitating the smooth progress of the test; and for devices with multiple test probes on the calibration box to test the electrical nozzle, the reflector allows the operator to observe the electrical nozzle spark situation from the optimal observation position without changing the operator's position, which is convenient for the operator to operate and observe, and reduces the workload.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] An electric nozzle calibration device, the structure of which is as follows: Figure 1-3 As shown, it includes: a calibration box 1 with an observation window 13, a calibration mechanism 2 set inside the calibration box 1 to calibrate the electric nozzle 5, and an air supply assembly 3 connected to the calibration mechanism 2 to provide compressed air. The calibration mechanism 2 includes: a sealed chamber 21 connected to the air supply assembly 3, multiple detection probes connected to the electric nozzle 5, and a power supply assembly 22 that provides ignition voltage to the electric nozzle 5. The sealed chamber 21 and the observation window 13 are not positioned opposite each other.

[0034] A reflector 4 is inclinedly arranged between the observation window 13 and the calibration mechanism 2 to reflect the spark light from the electric nozzle 5 to the observation window 13.

[0035] In practical applications, the installation positions are configured to be nine; the side wall of the calibration box 1 is provided with a connection port 14 for connecting to an external air-conditioned vehicle and a socket 15 for connecting to an external ground power supply vehicle.

[0036] Working principle: When using the calibration equipment, first install all 9 electrical outlets 5 on the calibration equipment and tighten them, and check that all switches and valves are in the closed position;

[0037] Then, connect the gas supply assembly 3 to the external air conditioning vehicle and fill it with air until the pressure in the sealed chamber 21 of the gas supply assembly 3 reaches the requirements of the working environment of the simulated electric nozzle 5. Then, close the valve in the sealed chamber 21. Connect the power supply assembly 22 to the external ground power vehicle and insert one end of the high-voltage wire 2231 of the power supply assembly 22 into the holes of each electric nozzle 5 in sequence. The spark light generated by each electric nozzle 5 after being energized is reflected by the reflector 4 to the observation window 13 for observation. By observing the electric spark generated by the electric nozzle 5 and the change of the ammeter 227 of the power supply assembly 22, the working condition of the electric nozzle 5 can be judged. After the calibration work is completed, first close all switches and valves, remove the air conditioning vehicle and unplug the ground power vehicle, and then open the corresponding valve of the gas supply assembly 3 to release the gas in the calibrator into the atmosphere.

[0038] This calibration equipment provides the necessary conditions for a stable electric spark to be generated by the electric nozzle 5, including gas pressure and rectified voltage. This allows for visual inspection of the nozzle 5's operation. A reflector 4 is used to reflect the spark light from the nozzle 5 to the observation window 13 for observation. This avoids the observation window 13 being positioned opposite the spark generation point of the nozzle 5, preventing light interference from the testing environment and facilitating smooth testing. Furthermore, for devices with multiple probes on the calibration chamber 1 that test the nozzle 5, the reflector 4 allows for observation of the nozzle 5's spark from the optimal viewing position without requiring operators to change positions, simplifying operation and observation and reducing workload.

[0048] The igniter 223 is equipped with an ignition coil and is connected to the electric nozzle 5 via a high-voltage wire 2231.

Perform the test.
