The invention discloses a rod type convergence gauge and a using method of the rod type convergence gauge. The rod type convergence gauge is mainly formed by connecting a
light metal measuring rod, a main measuring and reading rod, a fixing anchor head, a measuring point fixing anchor head and the like. The
light metal measuring rod and the main measuring and reading rod are seamlessly connected in a butted mode through a connecting bolt and a connecting nut, and the main measuring and reading rod is mainly composed of a hollow rod body, an internal hidden steel measuring tape, a spring, a
metal pressing rod, a locking device, a
micrometer caliper, a force measuring spring and a
reference window. After the components of the convergence gauge are connected, the measuring tape hidden in the main measuring and reading rod is drawn out, the internal hidden spring is pressed in the process of drawing out the measuring tape, the convergence gauge is tensioned at the same time, then, a measuring tape locking ring is screwed down, and a rough read number is recorded; next, the
micrometer caliper connected to one end of the main measuring and reading rod is rotated and meanwhile the force measuring spring is pressed, when the scale mark on a guide rod of the force measuring spring coincides with the scale mark on the
reference window arranged on the measuring rod, it is shown that the tensile force is regulated to be accurate, the mantissa is accurately measured and read, and the measuring value can be obtained by adding the mantissa to the rough read number. The rod type convergence gauge has the advantages of being simple in structure, convenient to operate, high and stable in measuring accuracy and high in applicability.
