[0025] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the present invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the present invention.
[0026] like Figure 1-3 The dual-station fatigue testing machine shown has symmetrical slide rail structures on both sides of the frame frame 1. The slide rail structures are equipped with fatigue testing stations, forming a symmetrical structure. The two stations work simultaneously, improving testing efficiency.
[0027] The fatigue testing stations on both sides have an upper fixture 6 and a lower fixture 10, which are respectively installed on the slide rail structure and can move up and down along the slide rail. During operation, an air spring is installed between the upper fixture 6 and the lower fixture 10. The upper fixture 6 and the lower fixture 10 repeatedly compress the air spring to conduct fatigue testing.
[0028] The slide rail structure consists of an upper guide rail 5 and a lower guide rail 9, which correspond to the installation of the upper tooling table 6 and the lower tooling table 10, respectively.
[0029] The upper guide rail 5 has an upper limit block 3 and a lower limit block 4 spaced apart, and the upper tooling table 6 moves between the upper limit block 3 and the lower limit block 4.
[0030] The frame frame 1 is equipped with an upper tooling drive device. The output end of the upper tooling drive device is connected to the upper tooling tables 6 on both sides of the frame frame 1, driving the upper tooling tables 6 on both sides to move up and down.
[0031] The upper tooling drive device includes an upper tooling support frame, a worm gear mechanism 8, a first motor 7, and an upper tooling output component. The first motor 7 and the worm gear mechanism 8 are mounted on the upper tooling support frame. The first motor 7 drives the worm gear mechanism 8. An output screw 21 is provided at the lower end of the worm gear mechanism 8. The middle part of the upper tooling output component is screwed to the output screw 21, and the two ends of the upper tooling output component are respectively connected to the upper tooling tables 6 on both sides.
[0032] The upper tooling drive device also includes a pair of guide rods 2, which are longitudinally arranged on both sides of the output screw 21, pass through the upper tooling output component, and guide the upper tooling output component.
[0033] The output screw 21 rotates, enabling the upper tooling table 6 to move up and down.
[0034] The frame frame 1 is equipped with a lower tooling drive device. The output end of the lower tooling drive device is connected to the lower tooling tables 10 on both sides of the frame frame 1, driving the lower tooling tables 10 on both sides to move up and down.
[0035] The lower tooling drive device includes a lower tooling support frame, a lower tooling output shaft 13 mounted on the lower tooling support frame, a second motor 16, a pair of turntables 12, and a crank 11; one end of the crank 11 is eccentrically mounted on the turntable 12, and the other end is rotatably connected to the lower tooling table 10; the turntables 12 are located at both ends of the lower tooling output shaft 13, driving the turntables 12 to rotate; the lower tooling output shaft 13 is driven by the second motor 16.
[0036] In this embodiment, the second motor 16 is connected to the lower tooling output shaft 13 via a belt 20.
[0037] See Figure 2 In this embodiment, the conveying end of the second motor 16 is provided with a reduction gearbox 18, and the output shaft of the reduction gearbox 18 is connected to the drive pulley 18.
[0038] The lower tooling support frame has bearing seats 14 on both sides for mounting the lower tooling output shaft 13. The lower tooling output shaft 13 has a driven pulley 15 in the middle for connecting the belt 20 with the driving pulley 18.
[0039] The second motor 16 outputs torque and works with the reduction gearbox 17 to reduce speed and increase torque, thereby achieving power output.
[0040] The driving pulley 18 receives the torque output from the reduction gearbox 17 and outputs the power to the drive shaft after reduction via the belt 20 and driven pulley 15. The lower tooling output shaft 13 transmits the torque output from the pulley to the turntable 12 through the bearing housing 14. The bearing housing 14 contains rolling bearings, which reduce frictional losses during transmission, ensure the stability of power transmission in the system, and maintain smooth system operation.
