Definitions
- the present invention relates to a dynamometer rotary table which enables to rotate the dynamometer manually or automatically in order for the dynamometer to operate in different positions.
- a dynamometer is used for measuring the output force of a rotary machine.
- the dynamometer is used for measuring the horse power of an energy motor or an automobile engine. Multiplication of the momentum (torsion force) applied to the rotary member and the angular velocity gives the force.
- the most commonly used dynamometer measuring force is comprised of an elastic metal ring. When a force is loaded such that it will compress this ring, the ring is torsioned and the force is measured according to the amount of torsion. The greater the force applied by the object, the more the spring is stretched.
- NVH Noise, Vibration and Harshness
- NVH performance of engines is very important in terms of the customer and environment comfort. Particularly NVH performance of the engines used in automotive should be within the determined limit. When the vibration and noise generated by the engine exceeds a specific limit, it directly affects the driving comfort and environment. To this end, many studies and tests for improving NVH performance of engines are conducted intensely. In order to measure the noise and vibration levels during these tests, engines are located in acoustically insulated special test rooms. In these tests dynamometers are used in order to be able to apply load on the engines. Dynamometers should not be located in acoustic chambers.
- Dynamometers are located in the rooms which are adjacent to the acoustic chamber, in order to prevent the reflection of the sound waves generated by the engine from the outer surfaces of the dynamometer and to prevent the noise generated by the dynamometers.
- the dynamometers can only be used in NVH development tests.
- the dynamometer rooms are not designed as separate test cells. Even if the dynamometer rooms are designed as separate test cells, dynamometers should to be dismantled and repositioned after NVH tests are completed,and after repositioning is finished mechanical development test can be conducted. Dismantling and repositioning the dynamometers causes loss of time and labor; and furthermore, the test cells cannot be used during this period either.
- There is no structure or a system which enables the dynamometer to be automatically rotated according to the test that will be conducted and bringing it to a required position for the other test or wherein the base on which the dynamometer is seated moves automatically.
- JPS62197741 an application known in the state of the art, discloses about calculation of the noise and vibration tests according to the revolutions of the front and rear shafts.
- the said invention does not disclose that the dynamometer can be located on a rotary table and that its position can be changed automatically.

On the test arrangement, an input coupling is rotatable about an axis and connected to the engine. The said invention does not disclose that the dynamometer can be located on a rotary table and that its position can be changed automatically.
- An objective of the present invention is to provide a dynamometer rotary table which can manually or automatically bring the dynamometer to the required position according to the test that will be conducted.
- Another objective of the present invention is to provide a dynamometer rotary table which, when the NVH development tests are not conducted, brings the dynamometer to the required position for the mechanical development tests.
- a further objective of the present invention is to provide a dynamometer rotary table which automatically brings the dynamometer to the required configuration according to the test that will be conducted.
- Another objective of the present invention is to provide a dynamometer rotary table which can perform transitions between the configurations rapidly within the determined time range.
