Description

Automobile front axle steering test device and durability and strength test method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to an automobile front axle steering test device and a durability and strength test method thereof, which are particularly suitable for testing the steering function of an automobile front axle.
Background
With the continuous increase of the total economic quantity of China in recent years, the demand of commercial vehicles is increased year by year. As a production tool, a commercial vehicle has higher and higher requirements on the reliability of the vehicle, and a user hopes to buy the vehicle which is safe, comfortable and good in reliability. The automobile front axle is an important assembly component of a commercial vehicle, is a bearing part and a steering function part, and the reliability of the automobile front axle relates to the running safety of the whole vehicle. How to more efficiently and comprehensively verify the reliability and strength of the front axle steering system on the indoor gantry becomes a subject of intensive research.
At present, the test verification aiming at the durability of the front axle of the automobile mainly focuses on part/assembly verification and whole automobile road test. In the current bench test standard of the front axle of the automobile, all manufacturers examine the bearing aspect and pay attention to the examination of the vertical strength and rigidity of the front axle, and the examination is shown in QC/T494-1999 test method of rigidity of the front axle of the automobile and QC/T513-1999 test method of fatigue life of the front axle of the automobile. The whole vehicle road test standard refers to GB/T12534-1990 (the front axle steering verification needs to be carried out on 1500km mountain roads, 3500km bad roads and 1000km flat roads) and relevant enterprise standards. The part test only examines the reliability of a single part or assembly and cannot well relate the service life of the part to the whole vehicle; the whole vehicle road test has long period, high cost, less sample amount and relatively poor consistency of test results influenced by subjective and objective factors.
As the steering knuckle and the kingpin are continuously worn during the driving process of the vehicle, the resulting faults account for a large portion of the after-market fault statistics of the vehicle. The bench verification as the automobile front axle steering function is not mentioned in the current domestic literature and technical standard, and is a blank area in the current automobile part and system bench test.
At present, the examination test of a domestic host machine factory on a steering knuckle is mainly carried out on a whole vehicle road test. The whole vehicle road test has high road requirement, the test consumes long time, and the steering force during steering cannot be controlled. In addition, in a road test, frequent steering causes great hidden danger to the safety of personnel in the test process. The existing testing device can only be suitable for a small part of axles, and the stress of a steering axle is difficult to keep horizontal, thereby causing interference to the test result.
