Abstract

Provided is a weight balancing type dynamic yawing simulator, and more particularly, a weight balancing type dynamic yawing simulator capable of reproducing real crash situations and preventing a weight from leaning to one side by providing a simulator capable of reproducing crash results of a side direction and yawing to the existing simulator capable of reproducing crash results of a front direction, pitching, and a vertical direction of a vehicle, by providing a dynamic yawing simulator of a pitching and yawing composite safety apparatus type capable of reproducing crash results due to a side direction and yawing in a crash simulator for a vehicle, thereby preventing the simulator apparatus from being separated and broken.

Claims

1. A weight balancing type dynamic yawing simulator, comprising:

a basic part formed at a lower portion thereof; and

a body formed at an upper portion of the basic part and moving and rotating by an external shock,

wherein the body includes;

a rotation center part configured to be formed on a lower surface of the body and spaced apart from one side in a length direction of the body at a predetermined distance;

a rotating part spaced apart from the rotation center part toward the other side in the length direction of the body at a predetermined distance; and

a moving part configured to be formed at one side of the body and move on the basic part, and

wherein the basic part includes;

a rotation center servo actuator configured to be formed at one side of the upper portion of the basic part and apply an accelerating force to the rotation center part in a width direction of the body; and

a rotation servo actuator configured to be spaced apart from the rotation center servo actuator toward the other side in a length direction of the basic part at a predetermined distance and apply an accelerating force to the rotating part in the width direction of the body.

2. The weight balancing type dynamic yawing simulator of claim 1, wherein the basic part further includes:

a pair of rails configured to be formed on an upper surface of the basic part to be parallel with a direction in which the rotation servo actuator applies the accelerating force and have the rotating part moving therealong.

3. The weight balancing type dynamic yawing simulator of claim 2, wherein the rotating part includes:

a rotating part body configured to be applied with the accelerating force from the rotation servo actuator and move along the rail;

a rotating part body rail configured to be formed at both ends of an upper portion of the rotating part body;

rotation moving parts configured to be formed on the rotating part body in a half ring shape while being curved to face each other and to be movable in a circumferential direction by a predetermined distance while being fixed to the rotating part body rail; and

a rotation moving cover part configured to be formed on an upper surface of the rotation moving part and be connected to the body.

4. The weight balancing type dynamic yawing simulator of claim 3, wherein the rotation moving part includes rotation moving limiting parts provided at both ends thereof to limit a movement in the circumferential direction.

5. The weight balancing type dynamic yawing simulator of claim 1, wherein the basic part further includes a weight balancing part configured to be formed on the other side of the basic part to be movable in the width direction of the body.

6. The weight balancing type dynamic yawing simulator of claim 5, wherein the weight balancing part includes:

a weight balancing fixed part configured to be fixed on an upper surface of the basic part;

a weight balancing fixed shaft configured to include a weight balancing rod formed to be connected to the weight balancing fixed part in the width direction of the body and a weight balancing piston formed to be connected to the weight balancing rod; and

a weight balancing body configured to enclose the weight balancing fixed shaft, and

the weight balancing body is formed to be stroke-driven in the width direction of the body by an air pressure.

7. The weight balancing type dynamic yawing simulator of claim 6, wherein the basic part further includes a weight balancing rail configured to be formed on the upper portion of the basic part in the width direction of the body and have the weight balancing body moving therealong.

8. The weight balancing type dynamic yawing simulator of claim 5, further comprising:

a weight balancing pneumatic supplier configured to be formed on an upper surface of the basic part and supply an air pressure to the weight balancing part.

9. The weight balancing type dynamic yawing simulator of claim 1, wherein the basic part further includes a buffer member configured to be formed on an upper surface of the basic part in the width direction of the body and formed to contact the rotating part.

10. The weight balancing type dynamic yawing simulator of claim 1, further comprising:

an actuator pneumatic supplier configured to be formed on an upper surface of the basic part and supply an air pressure to the rotation center servo actuator and the rotation servo actuator.
