The test method of the McPherson front suspension assembly braking test device is proposed under various conditions as follows:
the first working condition is to simulate the steering working condition in the driving process
The invention also provides a test method of the McPherson type front suspension assembly braking test device, which adopts the McPherson type front suspension assembly braking test device, when the test method evaluates the fatigue strength of the McPherson type front suspension braking angle assembly under the steering working condition, the braking test table only rotates at a constant speed and does not work as the braking working condition, the electric cylinder simulates the steering working condition, and constant amplitude alternating cyclic load with a fixed amplitude or random load simulating a road load spectrum is loaded.
And a specific step S 1, collecting a strain signal of the transverse pull rod through a strain gauge in a real vehicle test field road test.
In step S 2, in the fatigue strength test of the McPherson type front suspension and brake angle assembly, the road spectrum signal transmitted to the McPherson type front suspension and brake angle assembly, namely the road analog signal, is considered, and the signal is generally a force signal. And (3) converting the strain signal in the step (1) into a force signal through bench test calibration.
And step S 3, after equivalent damage calculation is carried out on the force signals, the force signals are converted into constant-amplitude alternating cyclic loads with fixed amplitude, or random loads simulating road load spectrums are formed after the signals are subjected to filtering, compression, splicing and other processes.

step S 4 is to synchronize step S 3, and the collected signals such as rotating speed, acceleration, temperature and brake pressure are used as target signals of the brake test stand. The test execution was performed on the inertia table spindle 20 in the macpherson front suspension angle assembly brake test apparatus.
The output method and process of the target signal of the electric cylinder 31 are the same as those of the first working condition, and the output method and process of the target signal used in the test of the main shaft 20 of the inertia platform are the same as those of the second working condition, except that the characteristics of the signal collected by the real vehicle are different, and the components used for loading are different.
The McPherson front suspension assembly braking test device and the test method thereof are designed and combined with a 1/4 front suspension braking assembly to cooperate with a tie rod test, and are closer to the real vehicle state assessment system-level braking performance. The invention simulates the state of a real vehicle, plans to test the performance test method of the brake test under various working conditions, and is realized by matching with a proper tool.
