[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of testing the strength characteristics of solid materials by using mechanical stress, in particular to a clamp used for high-temperature pipe tensile testing. Background Art

[0002] As a key method for evaluating the mechanical properties of materials, tensile testing is widely used in the field of materials science. When conducting such tests, a secure grip of the specimen is essential to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the test results. However, traditional pipe clamp designs, such as wedge clamps and pliers, have drawbacks.

[0003] Among them, the operation process of the wedge-shaped clamp is cumbersome and inefficient, and the clamping process often causes plastic deformation of the specimen, affecting the accuracy of the test results; when the clamp-type clamp is performing a tensile test, due to the uneven distribution of clamping force, the pipe is prone to excessive deformation or even breakage at the clamping position, and the validity and reliability of the test data cannot be guaranteed.

[0004] In particular, in the high-temperature pipe tensile test environment, the clamp material softens due to high temperature, the clamping force of the wedge-shaped clamp and the pliers-type clamp is significantly weakened, and the specimen is very likely to slip, making the traditional clamp unable to meet the high-temperature test requirements. In addition, these traditional clamps are large in size and complex in structure, making it difficult to adapt to the limited space in the high-temperature furnace, which brings great inconvenience to the installation and use of the high-temperature tensile testing machine.

[0005] Therefore, a new type of fixture is needed to overcome the shortcomings of traditional fixtures in high temperature environments and ensure the accuracy and effectiveness of tensile tests. Utility Model Content

In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: including: a cylindrical shell, a cylindrical inner cavity, a conical plug and a three-petal wedge-shaped sleeve clamping component, wherein a testing machine connecting section is provided in the center of the top of the cylinder top in the cylindrical shell, and the outer periphery of the testing machine connecting section is provided with an external thread for connection with the testing machine; a plug installation threaded hole is provided in the center of the bottom of the cylinder top in the cylindrical shell, the cylinder wall of the cylindrical shell is arranged in the direction from the cylinder top to the bottom, and a thread for installing the cylindrical inner cavity is provided in the cylinder wall of the cylindrical shell; the cylindrical inner cavity is connected by threads It is installed in a cylindrical shell, and a coaxial truncated cone-shaped accommodation portion is provided in the center of the cylindrical shell, with the large mouth of the truncated cone-shaped accommodation portion facing the cylinder top, and a three-petal wedge-shaped sleeve clamping component is arranged in the truncated cone-shaped accommodation portion; one end of the conical plug is a threaded portion for threaded connection with the cylinder top of the cylindrical shell, and the other end of the conical plug is a conical contact portion, which presses against the end face of the pipe to be tested from the inside, and the three-petal wedge-shaped sleeve clamping component is pressed against the outer periphery of the pipe to be tested, and the outer side of the three-petal wedge-shaped sleeve clamping component is pressed against the wall surface of the truncated cone-shaped accommodation portion.

[0007] The three-petal wedge-shaped sleeve clamping component is composed of three identical wedge-shaped sleeve clamping components, and the inner side surface of each wedge-shaped sleeve clamping component is provided with anti-slip grooves.

[0008] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0009] 1. The fixture has a simple structure and is easy to operate.
