Description

Rim load testing device and method of steering wheel assembly
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of mechanical property detection of automobile driving control parts. More particularly, the present invention relates to a rim load testing apparatus of a steering wheel assembly. In addition, the invention also relates to a test method of the test device.
Background
The automobile becomes a daily required vehicle, and with the continuous gradual improvement of various safety technical levels of the automobile, the structural form of a steering wheel and the rigidity of the edge of a wheel have the important influence on the injury degree of the body of a driver in an automobile collision traffic accident. The lower rim of the steering wheel with the larger rigidity of the steering wheel assembly has small deformation in collision, which is not beneficial to the absorption of the most collision energy, and similarly, the lower rim with the smaller rigidity deforms too fast in collision, which cannot play a good role in absorbing collision energy.
In a head-on collision test, injury indexes of the head, neck, chest, thigh, calf and other parts of an occupant are generally evaluated; in general, the head is easily contacted with the steering wheel and the airbag to cause injury, and the injury of the head is often fatal, so that the structure of the steering wheel skeleton needs to be optimized to reduce the injury to the head in a frontal collision.
The steering wheel is typically splined to the steering shaft and functions to convert the force applied by the driver to the rim of the steering wheel into a torque that is transmitted to the steering shaft. When steering with a larger diameter steering wheel, the driver's hand force on the steering wheel may be smaller. The steering transmission shaft is used as a connecting piece between the steering gear and the steering shaft, so that the universality of the steering gear is facilitated, errors generated during manufacturing and installation are compensated, and the installation of the steering gear and the steering wheel on the whole vehicle is more reasonable.
Although related host computer factories at home and abroad have different technical standards, in the prior art, a technical scheme for realizing the rim side load test function of the steering wheel assembly by relatively mature and perfect electric control test and mechanical device linkage does not exist.
