[0017] Example 1
[0018] Please see the appendix Figure 1 The present invention provides a pitch angle device for a wind tunnel experimental platform, comprising a base 8, an electric cylinder 1 and a stepper motor 2. The electric cylinder 1 is mounted on the upper end of the base 8. One side of the electric cylinder 1 is connected to the stepper motor 2 for transmission, and the other side is provided with a support rod 5. The support rod 5 and the top of the electric cylinder 1 are connected to a rotating rod 6. One end of the rotating rod 6 is provided with a quick-connect sleeve 4.
[0019] In this embodiment, the support rod 5 is fixedly connected to or hinged to the base 8.
[0020] In this embodiment, the electric cylinder 1 is fixedly connected to or hinged to the base 8.
[0021] In this embodiment, the support rod 5 is hinged to the rotating rod 6.
[0022] In this embodiment, the rotating rod 6 is hinged to the rod of the electric cylinder 1.
[0023] In this embodiment, one end of the rotating rod 6 is provided with an experimental workpiece mounting plate 3 and an experimental workpiece 7, which are connected to the rotating rod 6 via a quick-connect sleeve 4.
[0024] In this embodiment, the electric cylinder 1 is an electric telescopic reciprocating cylinder, the base 8 is connected by a flange, and the material of the base 8 is 6063 aluminum.
[0025] Working principle and usage: In this embodiment, the pitch angle device of the wind tunnel experimental platform works by sending pulses to the stepper motor 2 via a controller, controlling the forward and reverse rotation and the step angle of the stepper motor 2. The stepper motor 2 controls the rod of the electric cylinder 1 to rise, fall, and move up and down (motor forward rotation raises the rod, motor reverse rotation lowers the rod). The rising and falling of the electric cylinder rod drives the rotating rod 6 to rotate clockwise and counterclockwise with its connection point with the support rod 5 as the origin, thereby creating a pitch angle between the experimental workpiece mounting plate and the horizontal, and thus controlling the pitch angle of the experimental workpiece 7.
[0026] The electric cylinder rod rises, driving the rotating rod 6 to rotate counterclockwise around the support rod 5 and its connection point, causing the experimental workpiece mounting plate 3 to form a pitch angle with the horizontal, thereby controlling the pitch angle of the experimental workpiece 7. The electric cylinder rod descends, driving the rotating rod 6 to rotate clockwise around the support rod 5 and its connection point, causing the experimental workpiece mounting plate 3 to form a pitch angle with the horizontal, thereby controlling the pitch angle of the experimental workpiece 7.

It consists of a drive unit, a transmission unit, and a control unit. The drive unit is the power source for the pitch angle adjustment mechanism. The transmission unit transmits the power from the drive unit, converting motion into force or torque, enabling the mechanism to adjust the pitch angle. The control unit monitors and controls the motion state of the pitch angle adjustment mechanism. It acquires the pitch angle of the object through a position sensor and controls the mechanism to reach the predetermined pitch angle based on set values and feedback signals.
