The two ends of the second conical tooth 23 are rotatably connected to the first rotating seat 200 through a rotating shaft.

[0040] In this invention, the first rotating seat 200 facilitates the limitation of the rotation position of the second conical tooth 23, and the second rotating seat 201 facilitates the limitation of the rotation position of the worm gear 22, thereby increasing the stability of the assembly without affecting the rotational engagement.

[0041] It should be noted that a worm wheel 21 is provided above the worm 22 and is rotatably connected to the support column 11. The worm wheel 21 meshes with the worm 22. The worm wheel 21 is rotatably connected to one of the support columns 11 through a rotating shaft. A retainer 210 is provided at the center of the rotating shaft of the worm wheel 21. A retainer groove 211 is provided on the top of the retainer 210. A through hole 212 is provided on the outer wall of the retainer 210. A retainer 210 is also provided at the top of the other support column 11 corresponding to the rotating column 51.

[0042] In this invention, the worm 22 meshes with the worm wheel 21 to achieve synchronous rotation, and with the cooperation of the rotating shaft, the rotation of the worm wheel 21 drives one of the card holders 210 to rotate and cooperate.

[0044] In this invention, the crank handle provides a point of force, which facilitates the rotation of the turntable 24 to enable the second conical tooth 23 to drive the first conical tooth 220 to rotate, thereby enabling the worm gear 22 to rotate and drive the worm wheel 21 to rotate, thus achieving the corresponding rotation of the oil tank 5.

[0045] Specifically, a detachable oil tank 5 is provided between the two support columns 11, and an installation groove 10 is provided on the upper surface of the frame 1 near both ends, with an oil collection tray 3 provided in the installation groove 10.

[0046] Secondly, the width of the inner wall of the mounting groove 10 is adapted to the width of the outer wall of the oil collection tray 3, and the top of the oil collection tray 3 is symmetrically provided with handles 30.

[0047] In this utility model, the handle 30 provides a point of leverage, making it convenient to remove, replace or clean the oil collection tray 3. The oil collection tray 3 is inserted into the mounting groove 10 to increase the stability of the assembly.

[0048] It is worth adding that a rotating column 51 is provided at the middle of both sides of the oil tank 5, corresponding to the worm gear 21. A level gauge 50 is also provided on the front side of the oil tank 5 near the side. An oil pump 52 is installed on the top of the oil tank 5, and a regulating valve pipe is provided on the bottom surface of the oil tank 5.

[0049] The level gauge 50, in conjunction with the oil level gauge 50, helps to observe the oil content inside the oil tank 5 in real time, and in conjunction with the oil pump 52, enables the pumping and delivery of oil, thus facilitating the testing of large-flow oil transfer.

[0050] Furthermore, the rotating column 51 and the oil tank 5 are integrally formed. The width of the outer wall of the rotating column 51 is adapted to the width of the inner wall of the slot 211. A screw hole 510 is provided on the outer wall of the rotating column 51 at the position corresponding to the through hole 212, and a fixing bolt 511 is provided in the screw hole 510.

[0051] In this utility model, the rotating column 51 is inserted into the corresponding slot 211 on the corresponding card seat 210, and the fixing bolt 511 passes through the through hole 212 and is threadedly connected to the screw hole 510 to realize the stable insertion and installation of the oil tank 5. The fixing bolt 511 can be disassembled to facilitate the quick disassembly and assembly of the oil tank 5.

[0052] In this embodiment, when the high-flow fuel pump test bench is in use, the support column 11 is first assembled with the frame 1 with the self-locking caster wheel 4. The worm gear 21 is rotatably connected to the second rotating seat 201. The second conical tooth 23 is rotatably connected to the first rotating seat 200 through the rotating shaft. The worm gear 21 with the card seat 210 is rotatably connected to one of the support columns 11. The worm gear 21 meshes with the worm 22. The first conical tooth 220 on the worm 22 meshes with the second conical tooth 23. The turntable 24 with the crank handle is connected to the second conical tooth 23. Then, the rotating shaft with the card seat 210 is rotatably connected to the top of another support column 11. Then, the oil tank 5 with the oil pump 52 and the level gauge 50 is inserted and engaged with the slot 211 on the card seat 210 through the rotating column 51. The fixing bolt 511 passes through the through hole 212 and is threadedly connected to the screw hole 510 to realize the quick installation and engagement of the oil tank 5.

[0053] When the overall position needs to be moved, the pedal on the self-locking caster 4 moves up to release the wheel hub lock and achieve flexible movement. When the position needs to be fixed, the pedal on the self-locking caster 4 moves down to lock the wheel hub and achieve position fixation. When the oil tank 5 needs to be flipped, the crank on the turntable 24 is turned, the second conical tooth 23 rotates and drives the first conical tooth 220 to rotate, which in turn drives the worm gear 22 to rotate the worm wheel 21, thereby flipping the installed oil tank 5 and performing an oil delivery test. The oil pump 52 is started to realize the internal oil delivery. The second conical tooth 23 and the first conical tooth 220, and the worm gear 22 and the worm wheel 21 mesh, and the teeth have self-locking properties. Without external force, the oil tank 5 will not rotate. When the oil tank 5 needs to be disassembled, the fixing bolt 511 is removed, and the rotating column 51 is taken out of the slot 211, which facilitates the quick disassembly and removal or installation of the oil tank 5.
