Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of testing fixture technology, specifically an adjustable angle fixture for testing the bending of headphone cables. Background Technology

[0002] Headphone cables have become a very common portable accessory in people's lives. In order to ensure the quality of headphone cables, there are more and more testing devices. Among them, the bending test device is a mechanical force test device used to test the mechanical properties of metallic and non-metallic materials such as tension, compression, bending, shearing and peeling.

[0003] A search revealed that the invention patent with publication number CN112904121A discloses a test fixture for headphone jack cables. The test fixture includes a connector interface and a test motherboard. The connector interface is connected to one end of the headphone jack link connector of the headphone jack cable, and the other end is provided with a test motherboard for testing various test signals of the headphone jack connector. The power supply U1 on the test motherboard is connected to a voltage switch SW1.

[0004] However, existing headphone cable bending test fixtures only apply force to headphone cables in a single direction, which differs significantly from the bending patterns experienced by headphone cables in real-world situations, resulting in inaccurate test results. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an adjustable angle fixture for testing the bending of headphone cables. This solves the problem that existing headphone cable bending test fixtures have a relatively singular force direction on the headphone cable, which differs significantly from the bending patterns experienced by headphone cables in real-world situations, leading to inaccurate test results.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an adjustable angle fixture for testing the bending of headphone cables, comprising a frame, clamping mechanisms on both the left and right sides of the frame, a cylinder fixedly mounted on the top of the frame, the telescopic shaft of the cylinder passing through the frame and slidably connected to the frame, a connecting plate fixedly connected to the end of the telescopic shaft, a guide frame fixedly connected to the side of the connecting plate, the guide frame passing through the frame and slidably connected to the frame, a fixed shaft fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting plate, a bushing connected to the outer side of the fixed shaft via a bearing, a hollow disc fixedly connected to the end of the bushing, a locking disc fixedly connected to the fixed shaft, a locking pin slidably connected inside the bushing, the locking pin being inserted into the locking disc, and a spring provided inside the bushing.

[0007] Preferably, one end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the locking pin, and the other end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the bushing. By providing the first spring, the elastic force can be applied to the locking pin.

[0008] Preferably, a lever is fixedly connected to the pin body of the locking pin, and the lever is slidably connected to the bushing. The lever facilitates the pulling of the locking pin.

[0009] Preferably, the clamping mechanism includes a fixing frame fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame. A hollow sleeve is fixedly connected to the end of the fixing frame. An internally threaded sleeve is threadedly connected to the outer side of the hollow sleeve. A sliding pin is slidably connected inside the hollow sleeve, and the sliding pin passes through the hollow sleeve. One end of the sliding pin abuts against the internally threaded sleeve, and the other end of the sliding pin is fixedly connected to a clamping block. This clamping mechanism facilitates the clamping and fixing of headphone cables and is suitable for headphone cables of different diameters.

[0010] Preferably, a retaining ring is fixedly connected to the pin body of the sliding pin, and a second spring is sleeved on the outer side of the pin body. One end of the second spring is fixedly connected to the retaining ring, and the other end of the second spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hollow sleeve. The elastic force of the second spring can act on the sliding pin through the retaining ring, thus assisting in the pin's reset function.

[0011] Preferably, a guide rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hollow sleeve, the guide rod passing through the retaining ring and slidably connected to the retaining ring. Through the arrangement of the guide rod and its cooperation with the retaining ring, it guides the sliding movement of the sliding pin under force.

The through-hole facilitates the passage of any excess portion of the headphone cable through the frame.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. This utility model sets up a frame with two clamping mechanisms on the inner wall of the frame. After the headphone cable passes through the hollow sleeve in the clamping mechanism, the inner threaded sleeve can apply a pushing force to the sliding pin by rotating the inner threaded sleeve, so that the clamping block at the end of the sliding pin moves synchronously. Then, the headphone cable is clamped and fixed by the combination of the clamping blocks. Moreover, the adjustableness of the sliding pin and the clamping blocks makes it suitable for headphone cables of different diameters.

[0015] 2. This utility model features a hollow disc pushed by a cylinder at the top of the frame, through which the headphone cable can pass. By pushing the hollow disc with the cylinder, the headphone cable can be pushed and subjected to a bending test. In addition, a rotatable combination of a fixed shaft and a bushing is provided between the hollow disc and the connecting plate at the end of the cylinder. This allows adjustment of the rotation angle of the hollow disc, thereby applying different angles of torsional force to the headphone cable. Combined with the thrust, this improves the accuracy of the bending test. Attached Figure Description

[0025] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 The frame 1 has clamping mechanisms 2 on both its left and right sides. These clamping mechanisms facilitate the clamping and fixing of headphone cables and are suitable for headphone cables of different diameters. Each clamping mechanism 2 includes a fixing frame 21 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame 1. A hollow sleeve 22 is fixedly connected to the end of the fixing frame 21. An internally threaded sleeve 23 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the hollow sleeve 22. A sliding pin 24 is slidably connected inside the hollow sleeve 22, penetrating the hollow sleeve 22.

Then, the hollow disc 8 is rotated by the bushing 7, thereby applying a torsional force at different angles to the headphone cable. Combined with the thrust, the accuracy of the bending test can be improved.
