[0008] The second adjusting frame is slidably mounted on the second guide rail. The first adjusting frame and the second adjusting frame move in the same direction. The second adjusting frame is equipped with a second positioning device, which is used to fix the cylinder body tail end of the oil cylinder.

[0009] A drive assembly, which is connected to the second adjustment frame, is used to drive the second adjustment frame to move.

[0010] In the above-mentioned hydraulic cylinder testing fixture, a strip-shaped guide hole is provided on the first guide rail, and a number of fastening bolts are threadedly connected to the first adjusting frame.

[0012] In the aforementioned hydraulic cylinder testing fixture, the first adjusting frame has two spaced first connecting protrusions, each of which has a first limiting through hole. A first threaded hole is formed at the top of each first connecting protrusion. The first threaded hole communicates with the first limiting through hole. The first positioning device includes a first limiting rod and two first limiting bolts. The first limiting rod passes through the first limiting through holes of the two first connecting protrusions, and the two first limiting bolts are threaded into the first threaded holes. The bottom ends of the two first limiting bolts can contact the first limiting rod to lock the first limiting rod.

[0013] In the above-mentioned hydraulic cylinder testing fixture, the first limiting rod has two first positioning holes corresponding to the first screw hole, and the first limiting bolt can be inserted into the first positioning hole.

[0014] In the aforementioned hydraulic cylinder testing fixture, the second adjusting frame has two spaced second connecting protrusions, each of which has a second limiting through hole.

[0030] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, a testing fixture for a hydraulic cylinder 100 includes: a base 2, a first adjusting frame 3, a second adjusting frame 4, and a drive assembly 5. A first guide rail 21 and a second guide rail 22 are mounted on the base 2. The first adjusting frame 3 is slidably mounted on the first guide rail 21, and can slide relative to or be fixed to the first guide rail 21. A first positioning device 31 is mounted on the first adjusting frame 3 for fixing the piston rod 101 of the hydraulic cylinder 100. The second adjusting frame 4 is slidably disposed on the second guide rail 22. The first adjusting frame 3 and the second adjusting frame 4 move in the same direction. A second positioning device 41 is mounted on the second adjusting frame 4 for fixing to the tail end 102 of the cylinder body of the hydraulic cylinder 100. The drive assembly 5 is connected to the second adjusting frame 4 and is used to drive the second adjusting frame 4 to move.

[0032] In this application, based on the actual length of the hydraulic cylinder 100, the first adjusting bracket 3 is slidable and adjusted to a suitable position before being fixed. The piston rod 101 of the hydraulic cylinder 100 is then connected to the first adjusting bracket 3 via the first positioning device 31. The tail end 102 of the cylinder body is then connected to the second adjusting bracket 4 via the second positioning device 41, completing the assembly of the hydraulic cylinder 100 with the tooling and ensuring that the hydraulic cylinder 100 is in a stable state after installation. The drive assembly 5 is activated, causing the second adjusting bracket 4 to move along the second guide rail 22. Since the tail end 102 of the cylinder body is fixed to the second adjusting bracket 4, the cylinder body moves with the second adjusting bracket 4, while the piston rod 101 remains stationary. This achieves relative displacement between the piston rod 101 and the cylinder body, simulating the motion state of the hydraulic cylinder 100 during actual operation and providing conditions for testing the one-way throttle valve.

[0033] The first adjustment frame 3 can slide along the corresponding first guide rail 21, and can adjust the fixed position according to the different length specifications of the hydraulic cylinder 100, without the need to customize tooling for each type of hydraulic cylinder 100, thus reducing testing costs.

[0034] There is a mounting hole at the end of the piston rod 101 of the hydraulic cylinder 100, and there is also a mounting hole at the tail end 102 of the cylinder body of the hydraulic cylinder 100.

[0035] Specifically, a strip-shaped guide hole 211 is provided on the first guide rail 21, and a number of fastening bolts 32 are threadedly connected to the first adjusting frame 3. The fastening bolts 32 pass through the strip-shaped guide hole 211 and are used to fix the first adjusting frame 3 on the first guide rail 21.

[0036] The strip-shaped guide hole 211 provides continuous sliding space for the first adjustment frame 3. Compared with the discrete positioning hole design, it can achieve fine adjustment at any position according to the length of the hydraulic cylinder 100 without being restricted by the fixed hole position. It can more accurately match the clamping size of different hydraulic cylinders 100. The fastening bolt 32 is threadedly connected to the first adjustment frame 3. After tightening, the adjustment frame can be firmly locked on the guide rail by the clamping force between the bolt head and the guide rail surface. During adjustment, the adjustment frame can be slid by loosening the bolt. After it is in place, the bolt is tightened to complete the fixation. No additional tools or complex structures are required.

[0037] Specifically, there are two first guide rails 21, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the first adjustment frame 3.

[0038] Two guide rails support the two sides of the first adjustment frame 3 respectively, which can evenly distribute the weight of the first adjustment frame 3 and the piston rod 101 of the oil cylinder 100 and the test reaction force to the first guide rails 21 on both sides, preventing the first adjustment frame 3 from tilting due to excessive force on one side, thereby avoiding positional deviation of the oil cylinder 100 after clamping, and ensuring the accuracy of the test benchmark.

[0039] Specifically, the first adjusting frame 3 has two spaced first connecting protrusions 33, each of which has a first limiting through hole 331. A first screw hole 332 is provided at the top of the first connecting protrusion 33. The first screw hole 332 communicates with the first limiting through hole 331. The first positioning device 31 includes a first limiting rod 311 and two first limiting bolts 312. The first limiting rod 311 passes through the first limiting through hole 331 of the two first connecting protrusions 33, and the two first limiting bolts 312 are threadedly connected to the first screw hole 332, and the two first limiting bolts 312 can contact the first limiting rod 311 to lock the first limiting rod 311.

[0040] The piston rod 101 of the hydraulic cylinder 100 is placed between the two first connecting protrusions 33, and then the first limiting rod 311 is passed through the first limiting through hole 331 on the two protrusions. At this time, the first limiting rod 311 passes through the piston rod 101 at the same time, forming a preliminary limiting constraint to prevent the piston rod 101 from moving up, down, left, or right.

[0041] Specifically, the first limiting rod 311 has two first positioning holes 3111 corresponding to the first screw hole 332, and the first limiting bolt 312 can be inserted into the first positioning hole 3111.

[0042] After the first limiting bolt 312 is inserted into the first positioning hole 3111, it can completely lock the first limiting rod 311 so that it cannot move.

[0043] Specifically, the second adjusting frame 4 has two spaced second connecting protrusions 42, each of which has a second limiting through hole 421. A second screw hole 422 is provided at the top of the second connecting protrusion 42, and the second screw hole 422 communicates with the second limiting through hole 421. The second positioning device 41 includes a second limiting rod 411 and two second limiting bolts 412. The second limiting rod 411 passes through the second limiting through holes 421 of the two second connecting protrusions 42, and the two second limiting bolts 412 are threadedly connected to the second screw holes 422, and the two second limiting bolts 412 can contact the second limiting rod 411 to lock the second limiting rod 411.

[0044] Place the cylinder tail end 102 of the hydraulic cylinder 100 between the two second connecting protrusions 42, and then pass the second limiting rod 411 through the second limiting through hole 421 on the two second connecting protrusions 42. At this time, the second limiting rod 411 passes through the cylinder tail end 102 at the same time, forming a preliminary limiting constraint to prevent the cylinder tail end 102 from moving up, down, left, or right.

[0045] Specifically, the second limiting rod 411 has two second positioning holes 4111 corresponding to the second screw hole 422, and the second limiting bolt 412 can be inserted into the second positioning hole 4111.

[0046] After the second limiting bolt 412 is inserted into the second positioning hole 4111, it can completely lock the second limiting rod 411 so that it cannot move.

[0047] Specifically, the drive component 5 is a lead screw and nut assembly, which is connected to the second adjusting frame 4 and is used to drive the second adjusting frame 4 to move.

[0048] Furthermore, the lead screw of the lead screw and nut assembly is rotatably mounted on the base 2, and the nut of the lead screw and nut assembly is fixedly connected to the second adjusting frame 4. Rotation of the lead screw can drive the nut and the second adjusting frame 4 to move. The lead screw requires an external motor to drive its rotation.
