The target ball and the base are connected by magnetic attraction. There are usually multiple groups of circular holes in the measurement section as the measurement object to be detected. The target ball base needs to be disassembled and assembled repeatedly, and in order to meet the measurement accuracy requirements, the center of the measurement point needs to be concentric with the measurement circular hole; the measurement circular hole is generally drilled, and there are different degrees of burrs on the edge of the hole. It must be polished and cleaned to remove the burrs during measurement.

[0006] The middle portion of the inner diameter of the circular sleeve expands outwardly following the annular spherical surface.
[0007] The upper and lower sides of the annular spherical surface smoothly transition to the outer diameter of the circular sleeve through curved surfaces.
[0008] The bosses are evenly distributed on the conical surface, and the top surfaces of the bosses are conical surfaces with the same taper as the conical surface.
[0009] The outer diameter of the circular sleeve is smaller than the inner diameter of the measuring circular hole on the measuring bottom plate, and the diameter of the annular spherical surface is larger than the inner diameter of the measuring circular hole.

[0019] Figure 2-3 It is a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] The following is combined with Figure 1-3 The present invention is described in detail with specific embodiments.
[0021] A target ball support base with automatic centering and centering includes a support base 1 and a circular sleeve 2 coaxially arranged below the support base 1 and elastically deformable, wherein the support base 1 has a cylindrical blind hole 4 coaxially in the center of the upper end surface, the upper end of the cylindrical blind hole 4 expands outward to form a coaxial conical surface 3, and a magnet 5 is installed at the bottom of the cylindrical blind hole 4; the middle part of the circular sleeve 2 convexly forms a coaxial annular spherical surface 6, and the circular sleeve 2 has axially uniformly distributed strip-shaped shrinkage seams 7. The outer diameter of the circular sleeve 2 is smaller than the inner diameter of the measuring circular hole 11-1 on the measuring bottom plate 11, and the diameter of the annular spherical surface 6 is larger than the inner diameter of the measuring circular hole 11-1.
[0022] Furthermore, the middle portion of the inner diameter of the circular sleeve 2 expands outwards following the annular spherical surface 6 , so as to enhance the elastic deformation capability of the circular sleeve 2 .
[0023] Furthermore, the upper and lower sides of the annular spherical surface 6 smoothly transition with the outer diameter of the circular sleeve 2 through the curved surface 6-1, so that the annular spherical surface 6 can be smoothly pressed into the measuring circular hole 11-1.
[0024] Preferably, three or four strip-shaped shrinkage seams 7 are provided and open at the lower end of the circular sleeve 2. The circular sleeve 2 is divided into a three-petal or four-petal structure, and the deformation stiffness and elastic deformation amount of the circular sleeve 2 can be adjusted by different slot widths of the strip-shaped shrinkage seams 7.
[0025] In the above embodiment, the diameter of the annular spherical surface 6 is calculated by the diameter of the measuring circular hole 11-1 + the elastic deformation of the circular sleeve 2. The diameter of the annular spherical surface 6 can be adjusted to accommodate measuring circular holes 11-1 of different diameters.
[0026] In order to ensure and improve the measurement accuracy, bosses 8 are evenly distributed on the conical surface 3, and the top surface of the bosses 8 is a conical surface with the same taper as the conical surface 3. The conical bosses form point contact with the target ball, so that the target ball can be centered more accurately, ensuring the measurement accuracy. Preferably, three bosses 8 are provided.
[0027] In order to effectively avoid the influence of the flange burr on the top of the measuring circular hole on the installation of the present invention and avoid the measurement error caused by the interference of the hole edge, an annular groove 9 is coaxially provided on the lower end surface of the support seat 1.
[0028] Furthermore, three slots 10 are evenly distributed on the lower end surface of the support base 1 and are connected to the outer diameter thereof, so that the disassembly tool can be easily mounted in the slots 10 to achieve quick disassembly. The slots 10 are connected to the annular groove 9 to reduce the contact area between the lower end surface of the support base 1 and the upper end surface of the measuring base plate, thereby avoiding measurement errors caused by the non-vertical installation position of the support base 1.
[0029] The present invention is formed by integrally forming a highly elastic and wear-resistant material, and can be made of metal or non-metal materials. Metal materials such as spring steel can also be heat-treated to increase their surface wear resistance and corrosion resistance in order to ensure repeated use accuracy and prevent wear.
[0030] During specific use, the circular sleeve 2 is inserted into the measuring circular hole 11-1 on the measuring base plate 11, and is pressed hard so that the lower end surface of the support seat 1 is in close contact with the upper end surface of the measuring base plate 11, and the annular spherical surface 6 is compressed. At the same time, under the action of the elastic deformation of the circular sleeve 2 itself, the annular spherical surface 6 is in close contact with the inner diameter of the measuring circular hole 11-1, and the annular spherical surface 6 and the inner diameter of the measuring circular hole 11-1 achieve line contact. The center of the annular spherical surface 6 is automatically aligned and concentric with the center of the measuring circular hole 11-1, so that the support seat 1 and the measuring circular hole 11-1 are automatically concentric. Then, the target ball 12 is placed on the three bosses 8 to accurately center the target ball, and the target ball is adsorbed and fixed by the suction force of the magnet 5, and measurement can be carried out; after the measurement, the disassembly tool is mounted in the card slot 10 to achieve quick disassembly.
[0031] The above embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the contents described in the claims of the present invention should be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
