Description

Technical Field

[0002] In the automotive manufacturing industry, the optical performance and structural stability of automotive lighting fixtures directly affect driving safety and vehicle quality. Therefore, accurate testing of lighting fixture samples has become a crucial aspect of product development and quality control. Currently, most mainstream automotive lighting fixture testing devices on the market adopt a fixed clamping and single-angle testing mode. Traditional devices typically use rigid clamps to directly fix the lighting fixtures. This method is prone to problems such as scratches on the surface of the lighting fixture and damage to the internal structure due to uneven clamping force or excessive force during the clamping process, affecting the accuracy of the optical performance and lifespan assessment of the lighting fixture. In addition, most existing equipment relies on manual adjustment of the testing instrument position, which is not only inefficient but also makes it difficult to achieve accurate testing of the lighting fixture from all directions and multiple angles. It is easy to miss optical parameters in the edge areas or specific angles of the lighting fixture, failing to meet the increasingly stringent optical standards for automotive lighting fixtures.

[0022] Reference Figures 1-4 A device for testing automotive lighting samples includes a base plate 1. Support rods 2 are fixedly connected to the four opposite corners of the top of the base plate 1. A top plate 3 is fixedly connected to the top of each of the four support rods 2, forming a stable frame structure. A servo motor 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the top plate 3, with its output end extending vertically downwards. A threaded rod 5 is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 4, penetrating the top plate 3. A single movable plate 6 is connected to the outer walls of the four support rods 2. The movable plate 6 is connected to the threaded rod 5. A threaded opening 12 is provided at the center of the movable plate 6. The outer wall of the threaded rod 5 has external threads, and the inner wall of the threaded opening 12 has internal threads adapted to the external threads. The inner wall of the threaded opening 12 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded rod 5. Sliding openings 19 are provided at the four opposite corners of the movable plate 6. The inner walls of the four sliding openings 19 are slidably connected to the outer walls of the support rods 2, ensuring the vertical lifting stability of the movable plate 6 while limiting its horizontal displacement.

[0023] The two support rods 2 located on the same side are slidably connected to the same lifting block 7 on their outer side walls. The outer side walls of the support rods 2 are fitted with a return spring 13. The two ends of the return spring 13 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting block 7 and the top of the base plate 1, respectively. This design allows the lifting block 7 to remain in its initial position by relying on the elastic restoring force of the return spring 13 when there is no external force.

[0024] Both lifting blocks 7 are connected to movable plates 8 via a connecting mechanism. The connecting mechanism includes a first connecting block 14 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the lifting block 7, and a second connecting block 15 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the movable plate 8. The first connecting block 14 and the second connecting block 15 are connected by a connecting rod 16. Both the first connecting block 14 and the second connecting block 15 are provided with mounting holes, and the inner wall of each mounting hole is provided with a mounting shaft. Both ends of the connecting rod 16 are provided with rotating holes, and the inner wall of the rotating hole is rotatably sleeved with the outer wall of the mounting shaft, thereby realizing the flexible rotation of the movable plate 8 relative to the lifting block 7.

[0025] The movable plate 8 is connected to the clamping plate 9 through a buffer mechanism. The buffer mechanism includes two sets of telescopic rods 17 fixedly connected between the movable plate 8 and the clamping plate 9. A buffer spring 18 is sleeved on the outer wall of the telescopic rod 17. The two ends of the buffer spring 18 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the movable plate 8 and the clamping plate 9, respectively. This buffer structure can effectively reduce the impact force on the lamp sample during the clamping process, avoid damage, and also increase the buffer for clamping the lamp.

[0026] A turntable 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the threaded rod 5. A distribution photometer body 11 is fixedly connected to the outer edge of the turntable 10. The distribution photometer body 11 is used to measure key optical parameters of the lamp, such as light intensity distribution, beam angle, center light intensity, and luminous flux.

[0027] The specific working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0028] In the initial state, the lamp sample is placed on the surface of the base plate 1. When the servo motor 4 is started, the motor drives the threaded rod 5 to rotate. Due to the threaded transmission relationship between the threaded opening 12 and the threaded rod 5, the moving plate 6 will move vertically up and down along the support rod 2. When the moving plate 6 descends, it will push the lifting blocks 7 on both sides to slide down along the support rod 2. During this process, the return spring 13 is compressed. The lifting blocks 7 drive the two movable plates 8 to move relative to each other through the connecting mechanism, so that the clamping plate 9 moves closer to the lamp sample until the lamp sample is clamped and fixed, and the lamp is fixed on the rotating table.

[0029] After the lamp sample is clamped and fixed, the servo motor 4 drives the threaded rod 5 to rotate, so that the turntable 10 and the spectral photometer body 11 rotate to a suitable detection position. The spectral photometer body 11 rotates around the lamp sample at multiple angles, and performs horizontal and vertical rotation scanning around the lamp, measuring the light intensity value at different angles point by point. The optical performance parameters such as the luminous intensity and light distribution of the lamp are detected in all directions. After the detection is completed, the servo motor 4 rotates in the opposite direction, the moving plate 6 rises, and under the elastic action of the reset spring 13, the lifting block 7 drives the clamping plate 9 to reset, and the lamp sample can be taken out.

[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
