[0043] Please see Figure 1-3 This embodiment provides a Hall encoder angle calibration device, which includes: a wheel limiting mechanism 1, the wheel limiting mechanism 1 including a housing 11, an axial limiting member 12, and a wheel 13. The housing 11 has an accommodating space inside, and the wheel 13 is located in the accommodating space. The upper and lower ends of the wheel 13 are rotatably connected to the housing 11 through a first bearing 14. A limiting post 131 is provided on the upper surface of the wheel 13. The axial limiting member 12 includes a mounting plate 121 and a baffle 122. The mounting plate 121 is connected to the housing 11, and the baffle 122 is disposed on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 121 and located in the accommodating space. Both 21 and baffle 122 are located above the wheel 13; calibration component 2, which includes a fixing frame 21, a magnetic induction circuit board 22 and a magnetic encoding adapter rod 23, the fixing frame 21 is installed on the top surface of the housing 11; the magnetic induction circuit board 22 is connected to the top surface of the fixing frame 21 through several support columns 24, and the magnetic induction circuit board 22 and the top surface of the fixing frame 21 together form an induction area; one end of the magnetic encoding adapter rod 23 is connected to the wheel 13, a connecting channel is opened through the middle of the fixing frame 21, and the other end of the magnetic encoding adapter rod 23 passes through the connecting channel and is located in the induction area, and is electrically connected to the magnetic induction circuit board 22.

[0044] Specifically, this utility model provides a Hall encoder angle calibration device, which includes: a rotary wheel limiting mechanism 1, comprising a housing 11, an axial limiting member 12, and a wheel 13. The housing 11 has an internal accommodating space, and the wheel 13 is located within this space. The upper and lower ends of the wheel 13 are rotatably connected to the housing 11 via a first bearing 14. The wheel 13 can be configured to have a scale or pointer indicating the angle. A limiting post 131 is provided on the upper surface of the wheel 13, which abuts against the baffle 122 in the axial limiting member 12 to limit the rotation of the wheel 13. Component 12 includes a mounting plate 121 and a baffle 122. The mounting plate 121 is connected to the housing 11, and the baffle 122 is disposed on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 121 and located within the accommodating space. Both the mounting plate 121 and the baffle 122 are located above the wheel 13. By setting the baffle 122, it can abut against the limiting post 131 set on the wheel 13 during rotation, thereby limiting the maximum rotation range of the wheel. The calibration component 2 includes a fixing frame 21, a magnetic induction circuit board 22, and a magnetic encoding adapter rod 23. One end of the magnetic encoding adapter rod 23 is connected to the wheel 13. When the wheel 13 rotates, it can drive the magnetic encoding adapter rod 23 to rotate. The other end of the magnetic encoder adapter 23 passes through the fixing frame 21 and is located within the sensing area, electrically connected to the magnetic induction circuit board 22. During angle calibration testing, the wheel 13 is manually rotated until the limiting post 131 on the wheel 13 is blocked by the baffle 122 on the axial limiting member 12. At this point, the actual angle of the wheel 13 is strictly limited by the mechanical structure. Simultaneously, as the magnetic encoder adapter 23 rotates with the wheel 13, the Hall encoder is synchronously calibrated based on the angle of rotation limited by the axial limiting member 12. The magnetic induction circuit board 22 receives electromagnetic induction, reads the current output value (such as voltage or digital quantity), and... By binding with a known limiting angle (e.g., 90°), the rotation angle calibration is completed. In this application, only a single baffle 122 is set to achieve unidirectional rotation 90° blocking. If there are other requirements during the test, the baffle 122 can be installed at other positions on the axial limiting component 12 to adapt to encoders with different ranges and support manual adjustment. In this way, a device for quickly calibrating the angle of a Hall encoder is constructed to ensure that the encoder output angle is consistent with the actual physical position. The Hall encoder can be quickly calibrated on-site without the use of complex instruments. It is suitable for batch calibration or maintenance scenarios and improves the efficiency and speed of angle calibration.

[0045] In some possible implementations, a rotating groove 111 is provided on the side of the housing 11, the rotating groove 111 is connected to the accommodating space, and the side of the wheel 13 passes through the rotating groove 111 and is located outside the housing 11.

[0046] Specifically, the rotating slot 111 provides an operating area for manually rotating the wheel 13.

[0047] In some possible implementations, the top surface of the housing 11 is provided with a groove 112, and the mounting plate 121 is detachably installed in the groove 112; the bottom of the groove 112 is provided with a through hole 113, and the baffle 122 is located in the accommodating space through the through hole 113.

[0048] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the mounting plate 121 can be detachably installed in the groove 112 by the groove 112, which facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the axial limiting member 12.

[0049] In some possible implementations, the limiting post 131 is arranged perpendicularly to the upper surface of the wheel 13, and the baffle 122 is arranged perpendicularly to the mounting plate 121; the baffle 122 is arranged close to the upper surface of the wheel 13 so that the limiting post 131 and the baffle 122 come into contact and abut when the wheel 13 rotates.

[0050] Specifically, by setting the baffle 122 and the limiting post 131, the baffle 122 and the limiting post 131 are arranged relatively parallel to each other, so as to achieve the function of angle positioning.

[0051] In some possible implementations, an observation window 114 is also provided on the side of the housing 11, and the opening surface of the observation window 114 is the side of the housing 11 closest to the baffle 122.

[0052] Specifically, the observation window 114 facilitates real-time observation of the internal condition of the housing 11.

[0053] In some possible implementations, the middle part of the magnetic encoder adapter rod 23 is rotatably connected to the housing 11 via a second bearing 25; the other end of the magnetic encoder adapter rod 23 is fitted with a magnet fixing sleeve 26; and the support column 24 is a hexagonal copper column.

[0054] Specifically, the magnet fixing sleeve 26 is fitted onto the end of the magnetic encoder adapter rod 23 to ensure that the magnet at the end of the magnetic encoder adapter rod 23 and the magnetic induction circuit board 22 remain coaxial. At the same time, it can prevent the magnet from falling off due to vibration or centrifugal force during rotation. The support column 24 is made of hexagonal copper. Copper has good conductivity and can form an electromagnetic shielding layer to suppress external noise interference with the Hall signal. At the same time, it is easy to tighten with a wrench or socket tool to ensure the firmness of the connection between the magnetic induction circuit board 22 and the fixing frame 21 and prevent loosening due to vibration.
