可以理解,所述预设距离可根据实际情况进行设定,预设距离的设置是为了防止安装梁在移动的过程中触碰地面或底座。
本发明提供的一种车辆测量设备,既可以实现对车辆的标定,也可以测量所述车辆的轮状态,通过配置支撑架,支撑架可绕转动轴线相对于所述立架转动,且安装梁连接于所述支撑架远离所述转动轴线的一端,可以使安装梁处于两个不同的高度,以分别满足标定设备和四轮定位仪设备对安装梁高度需求,方便快捷,且车辆测量设备占地面积小,测量精度高。
另外,在安装梁可沿竖直方向相对立架移动时,安装梁连接于所述支撑架远离所述转动轴线的一端,可以减小丝杆长度,节约成本。
本申请的车辆测量设备可以很好的满足ADAS标定设备的安装梁高度和轮状态测量的安装梁高度。
最后应说明的是:以上实施例仅用以说明本发明的技术方案,而非对其限制;在本发明的思路下,以上实施例或者不同实施例中的技术特征之间也可以进行组合,步骤可以以任意顺序实现,并存在如上所述的本发明的不同方面的许多其它变化,为了简明,它们没有在细节中提供;尽管参照前述实施例对本发明进行了详细的说明,本领域的普通技术人员应当理解:其依然可以对前述各实施例所记载的技术方案进行修改,或者对其中部分技术特征进行等同替换;而这些修改或者替换,并不使相应技术方案的本质脱离本发明各实施例技术方案的范围。
