Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of testing equipment, and in particular to a test fixture structure for multi-specification pressure sensors for fuel cells. Background Technology
[0002] Hydrogen fuel cell engine systems offer advantages such as zero emissions and rapid refueling, effectively solving problems like long charging times and short driving range associated with lithium batteries. They represent a promising new energy vehicle power system. The working principle of a hydrogen fuel cell engine system is to convert chemical energy into electrical energy. This process involves the electrolysis of hydrogen gas fed into the fuel cell system, which then passes through an electrolyte membrane and reacts with an oxidant and air. Precise control of the hydrogen and air pressures is crucial for ensuring the stable performance of the hydrogen fuel cell engine system. Therefore, pressure sensors are needed to monitor the pressure of the gases entering the system. The accuracy of the pressure sensors themselves determines the accuracy of the gas pressure monitoring. A single engine system often employs multiple pressure sensors of various specifications to monitor the hydrogen system, air system, and thermal management system.
[0003] Existing pressure sensor testing fixtures typically install pressure sensors directly into the hydrogen fuel cell engine system to directly monitor the pressure in various parts of the system. This results in an excessive number of sensors in the system, which are directly installed and used, making it impossible to prevent problems beforehand. Utility Model Content

By integrating test holes for eight different sensor specifications, eight sets of sensors can be tested simultaneously, effectively solving the problem of measurement accuracy of pressure sensors in hydrogen fuel cell engine systems. By testing the accuracy and performance of pressure sensors before installation into the system, and simultaneously measuring pressure sensor products from various manufacturers, the development cycle is effectively shortened, and project milestones are met. Sensors measured by this structure can be selected based on their quality and performance for use in the hydrogen fuel cell engine system.
[0005] This utility model proposes a test fixture structure for multi-specification pressure sensors for fuel cells, including a housing, which is hollow inside and has an air inlet, an air outlet, and multiple sets of test holes of different specifications on its peripheral wall; the sensor groups corresponding to the test holes are mounted on the test holes by a pressure plate group.

[0008] Preferably, the pressure plate assembly includes a pressure plate; multiple sets of test holes include a hole located at the upper end of the housing; the pressure plate is used to mount the corresponding sensor onto the hole via bolts.
[0009] Preferably, the pressure plate assembly includes a second pressure plate; the multiple sets of test holes include a second hole located on the housing and opposite to the air inlet; the second pressure plate is used to mount the corresponding second sensor on the second hole by a second bolt.
[0010] Preferably, the pressure plate assembly includes pressure plate three; multiple sets of test holes include holes three located on both sides of the housing; the pressure plate three is used to mount the corresponding sensor three onto the holes three via bolts three.
[0011] Preferably, the three holes are arranged in six groups, with three groups located on one side of the housing and the other three groups located on the other side of the housing.
[0012] Preferably, six groups of sensors are set in total.
[0013] Preferably, the eight sets of sensors acquire sensor data through a computer, and a hub serves as the connection medium between the sensors and the computer.
[0014] Compared with existing technologies, this invention has the following beneficial technical effects: This patent, through the integration of test holes for eight different sensor specifications, can test eight groups of sensors at once, efficiently solving the problem of accuracy in pressure sensor measurements within hydrogen fuel cell engine systems. By testing the accuracy and performance of pressure sensors before installation into the system, and simultaneously measuring pressure sensor products from various manufacturers, the development cycle is effectively shortened, ensuring project milestones are met.
