Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of measurement technology, and in particular to a thickness measuring device and a thickness measuring method. Background Art

[0002] In daily life and production, it is often necessary to accurately measure the thickness of objects. For example, in the fields of textiles, molds, etc., it is often necessary to measure the thickness of samples such as textiles or molds. Usually, a caliper is used for measurement. The measuring jaws of the caliper are used to press the object to be measured. When the measurer feels that the pressure has reached the maximum and the thickness of the object to be measured no longer changes, the thickness of the object to be measured is read. However, for objects to be measured that vary significantly in thickness due to squeezing, it is difficult to manually control the force because different testers apply different forces at different times. Therefore, the data measured each time will also be different, making it difficult to accurately measure the thickness of the object to be measured and to unify the thickness measurement standards.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a thickness measuring device and a thickness measuring method that can apply a specific pressure to the object to be measured and measure the thickness of the object to be measured under the specific pressure, so as to achieve accurate measurement and standardized effects. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a thickness measuring device, which can apply a specific pressure to the object to be measured and measure the thickness of the object to be measured under the specific pressure, thereby achieving accurate measurement and standardization.

[0005] Another object of the present invention is to provide a thickness measurement method, by which a specific pressure can be applied to the object to be measured and the thickness of the object to be measured under the specific pressure can be measured, thereby achieving accurate measurement and achieving standardization.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention provides a thickness measuring device, comprising a torque tester and a thickness measuring instrument. The torque tester and the adjustment portion of the thickness measuring instrument are detachably connected by a docking engagement. The rotation of the torque tester synchronously drives the adjustment portion of the thickness measuring instrument to rotate. The rotation of the adjustment portion causes the clamping gap of the clamping portion of the thickness measuring instrument to gradually change.

[0007] Compared to the prior art, the thickness measuring device of the present invention includes a torque tester and a thickness measuring instrument. The torque tester and the thickness measuring instrument's adjustment portion are detachably connected by a docking engagement. The rotation of the torque tester synchronously drives the thickness measuring instrument's adjustment portion to rotate, and the rotation of the adjustment portion gradually changes the clamping gap of the thickness measuring instrument's clamping portion. The rotation of the torque tester synchronously drives the adjustment portion of the thickness measuring instrument to rotate, thereby gradually reducing the clamping gap of the thickness measuring instrument's clamping portion, thereby gradually clamping the object being measured. As the torque tester continues to rotate, the pressure applied by the thickness measuring instrument's clamping portion on the object being measured gradually increases, and the torque tester synchronously measures the pressure applied to the object being measured. When the torque measured by the torque tester reaches a set specific value, the thickness of the object being measured is obtained by reading the reading of the thickness measuring instrument. Therefore, a unified standard for applying pressure can be formulated for the same type of objects being measured to ensure that different testers at different times use the same test standard and apply the same force to the objects being measured, thereby reducing measurement errors, achieving accurate measurement and standardization, and improving measurement efficiency and increasing the stability of each measurement.

[0008] Preferably, the thickness measuring device further includes a connector, the ends of which are detachably connected to the adjustment portions of the torque tester and the thickness gauge. The connector stably connects the torque tester and the thickness gauge, thereby ensuring that the torque tester stably drives the thickness gauge to rotate, thereby accurately measuring the rotational torque.

[0009] Preferably, the first end of the connecting member is detachably plugged into the torque tester, and the second end of the connecting member is detachably plugged into the adjusting portion of the thickness measuring instrument.

[0010] Preferably, the outer diameter of the first end of the connecting member is smaller than that of the second end of the connecting member.

[0011] Preferably, the second end of the connecting piece is provided with a slot for connecting with the adjusting portion of the thickness measuring instrument.

[0012] Preferably, the torque tester is a digital torque meter or a pointer torque meter.

[0013] Preferably, the thickness measuring instrument is a micrometer.

[0014] The present invention provides a thickness measurement method, comprising the following steps: (1) providing the thickness measuring device described above; (2) connecting a torque tester and a thickness measuring instrument via a connecting member; (3) placing an object to be measured into a clamping gap of a clamping portion; (4) rotating the torque tester so that the object to be measured is gradually clamped by the clamping portion until the torque of the torque tester reaches a specific value and the torque tester is stopped from rotating; and (5) reading the reading of the thickness measuring instrument to obtain the thickness of the object to be measured.

[0015] Compared to the prior art, the thickness measurement method of the present invention synchronously drives the rotation of the thickness gauge by rotating the torque tester, causing the object to be measured to be gradually clamped by the clamping part, thereby causing the clamping part to gradually apply pressure to the object to be measured until the torque of the torque tester reaches a specific value and the torque tester stops rotating. When the torque tester stops rotating after reaching the set specific value, the gap between the clamping parts of the thickness gauge stops changing. At this time, the thickness of the object to be measured is obtained by reading the thickness gauge. Therefore, a unified pressure application standard can be established for the same type of object to be measured, ensuring that the test standards used by different testers at different times are the same and the force applied to the object to be measured is the same, thereby reducing measurement errors, achieving accurate measurement and achieving standardized effects, and can also improve measurement efficiency and increase the stability of each measurement.

[0016] Preferably, before step (2), the method further includes the step of returning the torque tester and the thickness gauge to zero.

[0017] Preferably, in step (4), the torque tester reaches a measurement value in the range of 2.0 kgf.cm-5.0 kgf.cm. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0022] In order to explain the technical content and structural features of the present invention in detail, the following is a further description in conjunction with the embodiments and the accompanying drawings.

[0023] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The thickness measuring device 100 of the present invention is mainly used to measure the thickness of the object 30 to be measured, and includes a torque tester 10 and a thickness measuring instrument 20. The torque tester 10 and the adjustment portion 22 of the thickness measuring instrument 20 are detachably connected by docking engagement. The rotation of the torque tester 10 synchronously drives the adjustment portion 22 of the thickness measuring instrument 20 to rotate. The rotation of the adjustment portion 22 causes the clamping gap 21 of the clamping portion 23 of the thickness measuring instrument 20 to gradually change.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the thickness measuring device 100 further includes a connecting member 40, the two ends of which are detachably connected to the adjusting portion 22 of the torque tester 10 and the thickness measuring instrument 20. Figure 3 As shown, the outer diameter of the first end 41 of the connector 40 is smaller than that of the second end 42 of the connector 40. The first end 41 of the connector 40 is removably plugged into the torque tester 10, while the second end 42 of the connector 40 is removably plugged into the adjustment portion 22 of the thickness gauge 20. Specifically, the first end 41 of the connector 40 is clamped and connected by the fixing member 12 of the torque tester 10, and the second end 42 of the connector 40 defines a slot 43 that connects to the adjustment portion 22 of the thickness gauge 20. More specifically, the adjustment portion 22 of the thickness gauge 20 is threadedly connected to the slot 43 of the second end 42 of the connector 40, or a clamp is provided within the slot 43 to clamp the adjustment portion 22 of the thickness gauge 20. Of course, the method of fixing the torque tester 10 and the thickness gauge 20 at both ends of the connector 40 is not limited to this method; any method can be used as long as it can stably connect the torque tester 10 and the thickness gauge 20. The torque tester 10 and the thickness gauge 20 are stably connected by the connecting member 40 , thereby ensuring that the torque tester 10 stably drives the thickness gauge 20 to rotate, and accurately measures the rotational torque.

[0025] Preferably, the torque tester 10 is a digital torque meter or a pointer torque meter, and the thickness gauge 20 is a micrometer screw, which can be a mechanical micrometer screw or an electronic micrometer screw. Specifically, by twisting the operating portion 11 to rotate the torque tester 10, the adjustment portion 22 of the thickness gauge 20 is synchronously rotated, thereby gradually reducing the clamping gap 21 of the thickness gauge 20, thereby gradually clamping the object 30 under test. As the torque tester 10 continues to rotate, the pressure applied by the clamping portion 23 of the thickness gauge 20 on the object 30 under test will gradually increase. The torque tester 10 will synchronously measure the pressure applied to the object under test. When the torque measured by the torque tester 10 reaches a specific set value, the reading of the thickness gauge 20 is read to obtain the thickness of the object 30 under test.

[0026] The thickness measurement method provided by the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0027] (1) Providing a thickness measuring device 100;

[0028] (2) Connect the torque tester 10 and the thickness measuring instrument 20 via the connector 40;

[0029] (3) placing the object 30 to be measured into the clamping gap 21 of the clamping portion 23;

[0030] (4) rotating the torque tester 10 so that the object 30 to be tested is gradually clamped by the clamping portion 23 until the torque of the torque tester 10 reaches a specific value and then stopping the rotation of the torque tester 10;

[0031] (5) Read the reading of the thickness measuring instrument 20 to obtain the thickness of the object 30 to be measured.

[0032] Preferably, the torque tester 10 and the thickness gauge 20 are reset to zero before the thickness test is performed. The torque tester 10 is a digital torque meter or a pointer torque meter, and the thickness gauge 20 is a micrometer. Specifically, in step (2), as Figure 4 As shown, the fixing member 12 of the torque tester 10 is plugged into the first end 41 of the connecting member 40, and the adjusting portion 22 of the thickness gauge 20 is plugged into the slot 43 of the second end 42 of the connecting member 40, thereby connecting the torque tester 10 and the thickness gauge 20. Specifically, in step (4), the adjusting portion 22 of the thickness gauge 20 is synchronously driven to rotate by the operating portion 11 of the torque tester 10, so that the clamping gap 21 of the clamping portion 23 of the thickness gauge 20 gradually becomes smaller, thereby gradually achieving a clamping process on the object 30 to be measured. As the torque tester 10 continues to rotate, the pressure applied by the clamping portion 23 of the thickness gauge 20 to the object 30 to be measured will gradually increase, and the torque tester 10 will synchronously test the pressure applied to the object 30 to be measured. When the torque measured by the torque tester 10 reaches a set specific value, the reading of the thickness gauge 20 is read to obtain the thickness of the object 30 to be measured. Specifically, the measurement value range achieved by the torque tester 10 is 2.0kgf.cm-5.0kgf.cm, specifically 2.0kgf.cm, 3.0kgf.cm, 4.0kgf.cm, and 5.0kgf.cm. Of course, the measurement value is not limited to this. According to the material of the object 30 to be measured, such as cloth, a specific torque value that can show the true thickness of the object 30 to be measured is determined through multiple experiments. Therefore, for the same object 30 to be measured, each time the thickness is measured, the torque tester 10 is twisted so that the torque reaches the same specific value according to the specific value obtained from the experiment, and the micrometer screw reading is started to reduce measurement errors.

[0033] In summary, in the thickness measurement device and thickness measurement method of the present invention, the rotation of the torque tester synchronously drives the adjustment portion of the thickness tester to rotate, and the rotation of the adjustment portion causes the clamping gap of the clamping portion of the thickness tester to gradually change. The rotation of the torque tester synchronously drives the adjustment portion of the thickness tester to rotate, thereby gradually reducing the clamping gap of the clamping portion of the thickness tester, thereby gradually clamping the object being measured. As the torque tester continues to rotate, the pressure applied by the clamping portion of the thickness tester on the object being measured will gradually increase. The torque tester will synchronously measure the pressure applied to the object being measured. When the torque measured by the torque tester reaches a set specific value, the thickness of the object being measured is obtained by reading the reading of the thickness tester. Therefore, a unified pressure application standard can be established for the same type of object being measured, ensuring that the test standards used by different testers at different times are the same and the force applied to the object being measured is the same, thereby reducing measurement errors, achieving accurate measurement and achieving standardized effects, and can also improve measurement efficiency and increase the stability of each measurement.

[0034] It is worth noting that the specific torque values ​​set in this application for different objects under test may be different. The setting of the specific torque values ​​is based on industry standards and is well known to those skilled in the art, and will not be repeated here.

[0035] The above disclosure is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the scope of the present invention. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present invention are within the scope of the present invention.
