[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Example 1: This example provides a stand for a simulator, such as... Figures 1-5As shown, the device includes a housing 1, a connecting plate 3, and a connector. The inner wall of the housing 1 is provided with a first connecting hole 2. The surface of the connecting plate 3 is provided with a receiving groove 4 and a second connecting hole 5. The receiving groove 4 is used to accommodate a power module. The second connecting hole 5 is arranged around the receiving groove 4 and corresponds to the first connecting hole 2. The connector is connected to the first connecting hole 2 and the second connecting hole 5.

[0025] For example, in implementation, the housing 1 may include a top plate, a bottom plate, and side plates. The top plate is connected to the upper surface of the side plates by welding, screwing, or integral molding. The bottom plate is connected to the lower surface of the side plates by welding, screwing, or integral molding. There are four side plates arranged side-by-side, connected end-to-end. This forms a housing 1 with an internal cavity, consisting of the top plate, bottom plate, and side plates. Several first connecting holes 2 are evenly distributed on the inner wall of the housing 1.

[0026] The connecting plate 3 can be made of metal materials such as stainless steel or iron. The connecting plate 3 is disposed inside the housing 1, and a receiving groove 4 is formed on one surface of the connecting plate 3 for accommodating the power module. A second connecting hole 5 is also formed on one surface of the connecting plate 3. The number of second connecting holes 5 is the same as the number of first connecting holes 2, and the second connecting holes 5 are evenly distributed around the opening of the receiving groove 4, with the positions of the second connecting holes 5 corresponding to the positions of the first connecting holes 2.

[0027] The connectors can be fasteners such as screws and rivets. The number of connectors corresponds to the number of first connecting holes 2, and the connectors are used to connect within the first connecting holes 2 and the second connecting holes 5 to fix the connecting plate 3 and the housing 1 together via the connectors, the first connecting holes 2, and the second connecting holes 5. The connectors are not shown in the figures.

[0028] During use, first place the power module in the receiving slot 4 on the connecting plate 3, with the opening of the receiving slot 4 facing the inner wall of the housing 1, and then fasten the connecting plate 3 onto the inner wall of the housing 1. Next, adjust the position of the connecting plate 3 so that the second connecting hole 5 on the connecting plate 3 aligns with the first connecting hole 2 on the housing 1. Then, connect the connectors into the first connecting hole 2 and the second connecting hole 5. Compared to traditional cable ties, this bracket can more firmly fix the power module and is less affected by the heat generated by the power module. This aims to reduce the risk of the power module shifting or falling off due to vibration or impact.

[0029] Example 2: Based on Example 1 above, in this example, as follows... Figure 3 As shown, the bracket also includes a handheld rod 6; the handheld rod 6 is disposed on the lower surface of the housing 1.

[0030] For example, in implementation, the aforementioned bracket also includes a handheld rod 6. The handheld rod 6 is disposed below the housing 1 and is connected to the lower surface of the housing 1 by means of welding, screwing, or integral molding.

[0031] During use, operators can easily carry the simulator using the handheld lever 6. In field testing, the stand can be held with one hand for angle adjustments or movement tests. This aims to facilitate rapid deployment and relocation of the simulator, thereby improving operational efficiency.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, the handheld lever 6 is mounted at the center of the lower surface of the base plate of the housing 1. This is intended to ensure the simulator's center of gravity remains balanced during operator handling, thereby reducing the risk of the simulator tilting, slipping, and causing damage.

[0033] Example 3: Based on Example 2 above, in this example, as follows... Figure 3 As shown, the handheld lever 6 has a button mounting hole 7 on its side wall; the handheld lever 6 has a wire channel 8 inside; the two ends of the wire channel 8 are respectively connected to the button mounting hole 7 and the receiving groove 4.

[0034] For example, during implementation, the side wall of the handheld lever 6 is provided with a button mounting hole 7, which is used to reserve a mounting position for the test start button. The aim is to facilitate the tester to start the simulator test from the test start button on the handheld lever 6 when holding the simulator, after the test start button is installed in the button mounting hole 7.

[0035] A wiring channel 8 is provided inside the handheld lever 6. One end of the wiring channel 8 connects to the button mounting hole 7, allowing the wire for the test start button to pass through. The other end of the wiring channel 8 extends into the housing 1 and connects to the receiving groove 4 on the connecting plate 3. This provides a concealed wiring path for the connection wire between the test start button and the power module.

[0036] Example 4: Based on Example 3 above, in this example, as... Figure 3 Combination Figure 4 As shown, the housing 1 has a first mounting hole 9 on the side near the button mounting hole 7; the first mounting hole 9 is used to reserve a mounting position for the laser light source.

[0037] For example, during implementation, a first mounting hole 9 is provided on the outer wall of the housing 1, which is used to reserve a mounting position for the laser source. This is intended to facilitate fixing the laser source to the housing 1. The first mounting hole 9 is located on the side of the housing 1 near the button mounting hole 7. This is intended to ensure that when the operator holds the simulator and tests the start button on the handheld lever 6 to activate the simulator, the laser source can emit a laser signal in the operator's line of sight, thereby reducing the risk of the laser signal being emitted towards the operator. The laser source is the core component in the laser / ultraviolet simulator that generates simulated threat signals; it can emit laser signals of specific wavelengths and intensities.

[0038] Example 5: During the use of the simulator, laser light sources of different frequencies may be used. Therefore, to facilitate the mounting of laser light sources of different frequencies on housing 1, based on Example 4 above, in this example, as... Figure 4 As shown, there are several first mounting holes 9; these several first mounting holes 9 are distributed on the side of the housing 1 near the button mounting hole.

[0039] For example, during implementation, the number of the aforementioned first mounting holes 9 is set to a certain extent as needed, and these first mounting holes 9 are arranged according to the required installation spacing between two adjacent laser light sources. This is intended to facilitate the installation of laser light sources of different frequencies on the housing 1, thereby allowing operators to select the corresponding frequency laser light source as needed.

[0040] Example 6: Based on Example 4 or Example 5 above, in this example, as follows... Figure 1 As shown, a second mounting hole 10 is provided on the side of the housing 1 away from the button mounting hole 7; the second mounting hole 10 is used to reserve the installation position of the display screen.

[0041] For example, in implementation, a second mounting hole 10 is provided on the outer wall of the housing 1, which is used to reserve a mounting position for the display screen. This is intended to facilitate fixing the display screen to the housing 1, thereby facilitating the operator's observation of the laser light source's operating status. The second mounting hole 10 is located on the side of the housing 1 away from the button mounting hole 7. That is, the second mounting hole 10 is located on the opposite side of the first mounting hole 9. When the operator holds the simulator and tests the start button on the handheld lever 6 to start the simulator, the laser light source emits a laser signal in the operator's line of sight. At this time, the display screen can be observed in the operator's line of sight. This is intended to further facilitate the operator in reading the laser light source's operating status from the display screen.

[0042] Example 7: During simulator use, there is an operation that requires selecting the laser source using a frequency selection switch. Therefore, to facilitate the mounting of the frequency selection switch on housing 1, based on Example 6 above, in this example, as... Figure 1 As shown, there are several second mounting holes 10; these several second mounting holes 10 are distributed on the side of the housing 1 away from the button mounting hole 7.

[0043] For example, during implementation, the number of the aforementioned second mounting holes 10 is set to a certain extent as needed, and these second mounting holes 10 are arranged according to the required installation spacing between the display screen, frequency selection switch, etc. This is intended to facilitate the installation of the display screen, frequency selection switch, etc., on the housing 1, thereby enabling the operator to select the corresponding frequency laser light source using the frequency selection switch as needed.

[0044] In an alternative implementation, components such as a power switch and a charging interface can be mounted on the housing 1 via the second mounting hole 10. This is intended to facilitate the operator's switching of the simulator on and off, as well as the charging of the internal power module of the simulator.

[0045] Example 8: To improve the heat dissipation of the power module within the accommodating slot 4 on the connecting board 3, based on Example 1 above, in this example, as... Figure 5 As shown, the wall of the receiving groove 4 is provided with a heat dissipation groove 11.

[0046] For example, in the implementation process, heat dissipation grooves 11 are formed on the groove wall of the aforementioned receiving groove 4. The heat dissipation grooves 11 can be in the form of linear strip-shaped slotted grid distribution or honeycomb through-hole structure, etc. The heat dissipation grooves 11 can be through grooves (communicating with the interior of the housing 1) or shallow grooves limited to the surface of the groove wall, used to enhance the thermal contact area. The aim is to effectively alleviate the temperature rise of the power module caused by long-term operation, thereby reducing the risk of overheating damage to the power module.

[0047] Although the present invention has been described herein with reference to several illustrative embodiments, it should be understood that many other modifications and implementations can be devised by those skilled in the art, which will fall within the scope and spirit of the principles disclosed herein. More specifically, various variations and modifications can be made to the components and / or layout of the subject matter combination within the scope of the disclosure, drawings, and claims. Besides variations and modifications to the components and / or layout, other uses will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
