[0023] As Figure 1 The marine engine electronic control unit function verification device shown in the figure, including power unit, power switch S1, T15 switch, starting switch T50, neutral switch S2, electronic control unit connector J1, instrument connector J2, OBD connector J3, prompting unit, water in oil connector J4 and oil drain switch S3, power unit is used to provide working voltage, electronic control unit connector J1 is used to be electrically connected with the electronic control unit to be tested, instrument connector J2 is used to be electrically connected with the instrument, OBD connector J3 is used to be electrically connected with the on-board diagnostic system.
[0024] As Figure 1 The output end of the power unit is electrically connected with one end of the power switch S1, and the other end of the power switch S1 is respectively electrically connected with one end of the T15 switch, one end of the starting switch T50, the power end of the electronic control unit connector J1, the power end of the instrument connector J2 and the power end of the OBD connector J3, wherein the power end specifically includes +24V pin and GND pin, and the power switch S1 is used to control the power switch S1 of the whole device.
[0025] The power unit in the embodiment includes a transformer and a power plug, the primary side of the transformer is electrically connected with the power plug, the positive electrode of the secondary side of the transformer is electrically connected with one end of the power switch S1, the negative electrode of the secondary side of the transformer is grounded GND, and the power plug is externally connected with 220V mains. Wherein the transformer is used for voltage transformation, to ensure that the utility model can operate normally, the transformer is used for converting 220V alternating current into 24V direct current, the transformer shell is insulated and non-conductive, and the reliability is high.
[0026] As Figure 1 The other end of the T15 switch is electrically connected with the T15 pin of the electronic control unit connector J1, and the other end of the T15 switch is also electrically connected with the T15 pin of the instrument connector J2 in the embodiment. The other end of the starting switch T50 is electrically connected with the starting pin (T50 pin) of the electronic control unit connector J1, and the other end of the starting switch T50 is also electrically connected with the starting pin (T50 pin) of the instrument connector J2 in the embodiment. One end of the neutral switch S2 is electrically connected with the neutral pin of the electronic control unit connector J1, and the other end of the neutral switch S2 is grounded GND.
[0027] AsFigure 1 As shown, the communication terminals of the electronic control unit (ECU) connector J1 are electrically connected to the communication terminals of the instrument connector J2 and the OBD connector J3, respectively; the communication terminals include a CANH pin and a CANL pin. After the instrument connector J2 is connected to the instrument, the ECU can communicate with the instrument through the ECU connector J1 and the instrument connector J2 to transmit CAN messages.
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the writing terminal of the electronic control unit (ECU) connector J1 is electrically connected to the writing terminal of the OBD connector J3; the writing terminal includes writing CANH pins and writing CANL pins. After the OBD connector J3 is connected to the on-board diagnostic system (OBD), the ECU can communicate with the OBD system through the ECU connector J1 and the OBD connector J3, transmitting CAN messages. The OBD system can calibrate and write data to the ECU through the writing terminal.
[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the indicator unit is electrically connected to the start pin and pre-lubrication pin of the electronic control unit connector J1, respectively. In this embodiment, the indicator unit includes a red indicator LED_R and a green indicator LED_G. One end of the red indicator LED_R is electrically connected to the start pin of the electronic control unit connector J1, and one end of the green indicator LED_G is electrically connected to the pre-lubrication pin of the electronic control unit connector J1. The other end of the red indicator LED_R is grounded to GND, and the other end of the green indicator LED_G is grounded to GND.
[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the water-in-oil connector J4 is electrically connected to the electronic control unit connector J1 and the water-in-oil sensor, respectively. Specifically, the water-in-oil connector J4 is electrically connected to the +24V pin, GND pin, and water-in-oil pin of the electronic control unit connector J1. When the water-in-oil sensor comes into contact with water, the water-in-oil connector J4 inputs a low level of no more than 1.41V to the water-in-oil pin, meaning the electronic control unit connector J1 inputs a low level to the electronic control unit. When the water-in-oil sensor comes into contact with air or oil, the water-in-oil connector J4 inputs a high level of greater than 4.6V to the water-in-oil pin, meaning the electronic control unit connector J1 inputs a high level to the electronic control unit. The internal logic of the electronic control unit is that a low level triggers an alarm, and a high level does not trigger an alarm. The electronic control unit transmits this logic in the form of a CAN message to the instrument connector J2 through the communication CANH pin and communication CANL pin. The instrument connector J2 then transmits it to the instrument, and the instrument triggers an alarm, thus verifying the water-in-oil detection alarm function of the electronic control unit.
[0031] like Figure 1As shown, one end of the oil drain switch S3 is electrically connected to the oil drain pin of the electronic control unit connector J1, and the other end of the oil drain switch S3 is grounded to GND. This utility model can verify whether the function of the oil drain switch of the electronic control unit is normal. In addition, the working principle of engine oil drain is to utilize the function of the oil pre-supply pump, and through the three-way valve, rotate the three-way valve to the drain opening side to drain the dirty engine oil from the engine oil pan.
[0032] The specific verification steps are as follows: close the power switch S1, close the T15 switch, open the T50 switch, close the oil drain switch S3, and the green indicator light LED_G will light up, indicating that the oil drain switch S3 is functioning normally; however, it should be noted that the T50 switch and the oil drain switch cannot be opened at the same time.
[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, when using the marine engine electronic control unit function verification equipment of this utility model, connect the electronic control unit connector J1 to the electronic control unit, connect the instrument connector J2 to the instrument, connect the OBD connector J3 to the vehicle diagnostic system, and plug in the power plug.
[0034] When the power switch S1 is closed, the power supply terminal of the control unit connector J1 is energized, and all pins of the control unit connector J1 work normally. When the power switch S1 and switch T15 are closed at the same time, 24V is input to pin T15 of the control unit connector J1.
[0035] When the power switch S1, switch T15, start switch T50, and neutral switch S2 (assuming the neutral switch S2 and pre-fuel function of the electronic control unit are enabled) are closed simultaneously, if the green indicator light LED_G illuminates for 35 seconds and then the red indicator light LED_R illuminates, and the neutral switch S2 is turned off, neither the green indicator light LED_G nor the red indicator light LED_R will illuminate. This indicates that the pre-fuel function, neutral switch S2, and start function of the engine electronic control unit are normal. Otherwise, one of them is not normal.
[0036] Because the start pin of instrument connector J2 is connected in parallel after the start switch T50, and the T15 pin of instrument connector J2 is connected in parallel after switch T15 via a wire, instrument connector J2 is connected to the corresponding marine engine instrument, which can also verify whether the power button and start function of this instrument are normal. Specifically: the instrument power button and the T15 pin of instrument connector J2 are connected internally to the instrument, and the instrument start button and the start pin of instrument connector J2 are connected. When the power switch S1 and the instrument power switch S1 are pressed, the instrument is powered on. At the same time, the instrument start button and the neutral switch S2 are pressed. If the green indicator light LED_G lights up for 35 seconds and then the red indicator light LED_R lights up, it indicates that the start function of the instrument is normal. Of course, it is understandable that the number of pins on instrument connector J2 can be changed according to the specific instrument type.
[0037] The power unit of the utility model is not limited to the above, the power unit can also include a rechargeable battery and a power plug, the rechargeable battery is electrically connected to one end of the power plug. After using the rechargeable battery, the utility model can be conveniently carried, and use is more convenient.
[0038] The prompt unit in the utility model is not limited to the above, the prompt unit includes a first speaker and a second speaker, the first speaker is electrically connected to the start pin of the electric control unit connector J1, and the second speaker is electrically connected to the pre-oil supply pin of the electric control unit connector J1. The first speaker and the second speaker can be set to produce different sounds, and the verification result can be prompted from the perspective of hearing.
[0039] The marine engine electric control unit function verification equipment of the utility model further includes a shell, the power unit, the power switch S1, the T15 switch, the start switch T50, the neutral switch S2, the electric control unit connector J1, the instrument connector J2, the OBD connector J3 and the prompt unit are arranged on the shell. In a preferred scheme, the shell is made of insulating material, which improves the safety of operation. The utility model is provided with a shell, and use can be conveniently managed.
[0040] In summary, the utility model can test and verify the pre-oil supply function and the start function of the electric control unit, simulate the pre-oil supply and start function through the on-off of different color indicator lights, and the specific implementation is as follows: when the start switch T50 is turned off, the electric control unit has a pre-oil supply function and the pre-oil supply logic is calibrated in advance (assuming that the logic is that, in order to protect the engine, 30s of pre-oil supply is performed before starting, and then the start pin outputs voltage), the electric control unit pre-oil supply control pin has voltage output, the on-off of the green indicator light LED_G simulates whether the electric control unit pre-oil supply function is normal, after 30s of pre-oil supply, the electric control unit start control pin has voltage output, and the on-off of the red indicator light LED_R simulates whether the electric control unit start function is normal; data of the electric control unit is written and calibrated; whether the instrument and the electric control unit can normally communicate and whether the start button of the instrument is normal are verified; other functions of the electric control unit can be verified by using the same principle.
[0041] The above only describes the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and does not limit the utility model, and any modification, equivalent improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
