They convert various operating conditions of the vehicle, such as vehicle speed, temperature of various media, and engine operating conditions, into electrical signals and transmit them to the computer so that the engine can operate at its optimal state. There are many types of automotive sensors, and when diagnosing a sensor fault, one should not only consider the sensor itself, but also the entire circuitry involved. Therefore, in troubleshooting, in addition to checking the sensor, one should also check the wiring harness, connectors, and the related circuitry between the sensor and the electronic control unit (ECU).

[0003] When performing vehicle maintenance or repair, various sensors inside the vehicle are tested. When testing the sensors, an automotive sensor testing device is required, typically a Pico automotive oscilloscope.

[0004] When using an automotive sensor detection device to test a vehicle's sensors, it is necessary to connect the device to its various ports via connecting cables. Some detection devices use a damped plug connection. During the testing process, some movement is inevitable. If the connection between the cable and the port is not secure enough, the cable may come loose and the device will malfunction, requiring reconnection and reducing testing efficiency.

[0034] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of this utility model. However, this utility model may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0036] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of this utility model. The phrase "in a preferred embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that mutually excludes other embodiments.

[0037] Secondly, this utility model is described in detail with reference to the schematic diagrams. When detailing the embodiments of this utility model, for ease of explanation, the cross-sectional views illustrating the device structure may be partially enlarged, not according to the usual scale. Furthermore, the schematic diagrams are merely examples and should not limit the scope of protection of this utility model. In addition, actual manufacturing should include the three-dimensional spatial dimensions of length, width, and depth.

[0038] Please see the appendix Figures 1 to 9 As shown, this utility model provides an automotive sensor detection device, including a body 1. Multiple receiving slots 2 are evenly spaced on the front of the body 1. A protective tube 3 is fixedly installed inside the receiving slot 2. A plug-in port 4 is located inside the receiving slot 2 and on the inner side of the protective tube 3. A through groove 6, communicating with the receiving slot 2, is opened inside the body 1 at a position corresponding to the receiving slot 2. A connecting piece 9 is located at the middle position inside the through groove 6. An adjustment component is installed inside the connecting piece 9. Pressing rods 10 are fixedly installed on both sides of the connecting piece 9 near the top and bottom. The pressing rods 10 extend through the through groove 6 and the inside of the receiving slot 2 to the top and bottom of the protective tube 3. Positioning components are located at the top and bottom of the protective tube 3 and at positions corresponding to the pressing rods 10.

[0039] The above structure, through the action of the adjustment component, can adjust the position of the connecting piece 9 and the through hole 11, so that the through hole 11 moves away from the plug-in port 4, and the bottom of the through hole 11 gradually contacts the positioning component. At the same time, the positioning component is pressed, so that the positioning component enters the interior of the plug-in port 4 to clamp and fix the plug end of the connecting wire. This makes the plug wire more securely plugged into the outside of the plug-in port 4, reduces the probability of the plug wire falling off the plug-in port 4 during the testing process, ensures the normal operation of the testing device, and thus ensures the continuous operation of the testing work, thereby improving the efficiency of the testing.

[0040] In a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4The adjusting assembly includes an internally threaded sleeve 16, which is fixedly connected to the inside of the connecting piece 9, and both ends of the internally threaded sleeve 16 extend to the outside of the connecting piece 9. An adjusting screw 8 is threadedly connected to the inside of the internally threaded sleeve 16. One end of the adjusting screw 8 away from the protective tube 3 is rotatably connected to the receiving groove 2, and the other end of the adjusting screw 8 extends to the outside of the receiving groove 2.

[0041] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to position the plug end of the connecting wire, the adjusting screw 8 can be rotated to move the internal threaded sleeve 16 and the connecting piece 9 away from the plug port 4. This causes the connecting piece 9 to move the through hole 11 away from the plug port 4. During the movement of the through hole 11, the pressing rod 10 gradually presses the positioning component, causing the positioning component to gradually enter the interior of the protective tube 3 to clamp and position the plug end of the connecting wire. This makes the plugging of the connecting wire more stable and reduces the probability of the connecting wire falling off during the testing process.

[0042] In a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 9 The positioning component includes a positioning post 12 slidably connected to the top and bottom of the protective tube 3. Through holes 11 are provided at the top and bottom of the protective tube 3 and at positions corresponding to the positioning post 12. The positioning post 12 is slidably connected to the inside of the through hole 11, and the end of the positioning post 12 away from the insertion port 4 extends to the outside of the through hole 11. A pressing ball 13 is fixedly provided at the end of the through hole 11 away from the insertion port 4. A spring 14 for resetting is provided on the outer wall of the positioning post 12. The maximum distance by which the pressing ball 13 protrudes from the positioning post 12 is greater than the vertical distance between the bottom of the pressing rod 10 and the top of the positioning post 12. The inner wall of the spring 14 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the positioning post 12 on the side close to the insertion port 4, and the outer wall of the spring 14 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the through hole 11 on the side away from the insertion port 4.

[0043] In the above structure, as the pressing rod 10 moves away from the insertion port 4, the pressing rod 10 gradually comes into contact with the pressing ball 13 on the top of the positioning post 12 and gradually presses the pressing ball 13, causing the pressing ball 13 to drive the positioning post 12 to gradually pass through the interior of the through hole 11 and move closer to the insertion port 4. During this process, the spring 14 is gradually compressed, and the bottom end of the positioning post 12 clamps and fixes the insertion interface of the connecting wire, thereby making the insertion of the connecting wire on the outside of the insertion port 4 more secure, reducing the probability of the connecting wire falling off the insertion port 4 during the detection process, ensuring the normal operation of the detection device, and thus ensuring the continuous operation of the detection work, thereby improving the efficiency of the detection.

[0044] Meanwhile, by using the above method, multiple connectors can be secured simultaneously by simply rotating one adjusting screw 8, making the securing operation of the connectors more convenient and faster, and improving the efficiency of securing.

[0045] Secondly, please refer to it again. Figure 2 and Figure 4 A knob 7 is fixedly installed at one end of the adjusting screw 8 that extends to the outside of the receiving groove 2.

[0046] With the above structure, when it is necessary to rotate the adjusting screw 8, the knob 7 can be rotated, and the adjusting screw 8 will be rotated by the knob 7, which makes it easier to rotate the adjusting screw 8.

[0047] In a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 Rubber protective sleeves 5 are symmetrically fitted on the outer side of the body 1 near the front and back, with the outer side of the rubber protective sleeves 5 protruding from the outer side of the body 1.

[0048] In this embodiment, when the detection device falls off during the detection process, since the rubber protective sleeve 5 protrudes from the surface of the body 1, the rubber protective sleeve 5 contacts the ground first during the fall, thereby cushioning the detection device and protecting it.

[0049] Secondly, please refer to it again. Figure 4 A fluorescent strip is provided on the front of the outer side of the protective tube 3.

[0050] In this embodiment, when testing inside the vehicle, the position of the protective tube 3 and the plug-in port 4 can be quickly determined by the fluorescent strip, which makes it easier to plug in the connecting wire.

[0051] Secondly, please refer to the following as well. Figure 4 A limiting plate 15 is fixedly installed at the top of multiple protective tubes 3 on the back of the positioning post 12. The limiting plate 15 is located inside the through groove 6 and the receiving groove 2.

[0052] In the above structure, when the pressing rod 10 moves away from the insertion port 4, the pressing rod 10 gradually approaches the limiting plate 15. When the pressing rod 10 moves to a certain distance, the limiting plate 15 contacts the pressing rod 10, thereby limiting the pressing rod 10 through the limiting plate 15. When the pressing rod 10 is in complete contact with the limiting plate 15, the pressing rod 10 is located directly above the pressing ball 13.

[0053] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Before using the detection device, the connecting wire is inserted into the outside of the insertion port 4 and the inside of the protective tube 3. After insertion, the knob 7 can be rotated to drive the adjusting screw 8 to rotate. During the rotation, the internal threaded sleeve 16 drives the connecting piece 9 and the pressing rod 10 to move away from the insertion port 4 inside the through groove 6 and the receiving groove 2. During the movement of the pressing rod 10, the pressing rod 10 gradually contacts the pressing ball 13 on the positioning post 12. As the pressing rod 10 continues to move, the pressing rod 10 gradually presses the pressing ball 13, thereby causing the pressing ball 13 to push the positioning post 12 through the through hole 11 and move into the inside of the protective tube 3. At this time, the end of the positioning post 12 close to the insertion port 4 clamps and positions the connector of the connecting wire inserted into the outside of the insertion port 4, so that the connecting wire can be inserted more securely on the outside of the insertion port 4.

[0054] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model shall be implemented according to conventional methods in the art unless otherwise specified or limited.
