Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of experimental equipment protection, and specifically to a protection device capable of preventing a Hopkinson pressure bar from collapsing and a use method thereof. Background Art
[0002] There are many problems of explosion vibration or impact load in various fields of scientific research, engineering technology, military technology, etc. The mechanical properties of materials under impact load are extremely complex. Therefore, the dynamic mechanical properties of materials have always been one of the key research directions of scholars. Among them, the Hopkinson pressure bar is considered to be the most commonly used experimental equipment for studying the dynamic mechanical properties of materials under high strain rates.
[0003] The commonly used split Hopkinson pressure bar requires that the incident bar, specimen, transmission bar and absorption bar are in contact with each other, and the end faces of the bars are required to be completely flat. However, during dynamic compression, shear and other experiments, although coupling agents (such as Vaseline and other coupling agents) have been applied to the end faces of the bars to avoid uneven local contact force caused by uneven end faces, it is unavoidable in the actual operation of the experiment that the bar state is extremely unstable due to excessive axial pressure. When the bar is subjected to impact loads, the bar is very likely to deviate from the ideal track, causing the bar to bounce up significantly and collapse, thereby causing safety accidents for laboratory personnel and equipment and property losses.
[0004] In addition, the current protection device of the split Hopkinson pressure bar only applies safety measures at the specimen position to prevent the specimen from impacting, breaking, and splashing, causing safety accidents, but there are obvious deficiencies in the protection against rod collapse. Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of the overall experimental environment, it is extremely necessary to set up corresponding protection devices to protect the rod part to constrain the deviation amplitude and range of the rod. Summary of the invention
[0005] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide a protective device and a method for using the Hopkinson pressure bar to prevent the rod from collapsing, so as to prevent the rod from deviating from the impact track and causing damage to the experimental device and the experimental operator.
[0006] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0007] A protective device capable of preventing a Hopkinson pressure bar from collapsing, the pressure bar comprising a semi-open fixed cover, an open circular protective cover, a telescopic pull rod, and a nut. Two semi-open fixed covers are tightly sleeved on the fixed pull rods on both sides of the Hopkinson pressure bar, the telescopic pull rod is connected to the screw hole of the semi-open fixed cover, the other end of the telescopic pull rod is connected to the open circular protective cover, the height of the protective cover in the horizontal direction can be adjusted by rotating the telescopic pull rod, and the devices are fixed and connected by nuts.
[0008] Furthermore, a hinge support is provided on one side of the semi-open fixed cover, and a nut is used to fix and close the other side, so as to facilitate installation and disassembly.
[0009] Furthermore, the semi-open fixed cover and the open circular protective cover both adopt a double-layer structure, and the order from outside to inside is: high-strength titanium alloy and high-elasticity rubber. The high-elasticity rubber can effectively buffer the force and prevent the titanium alloy shell from damaging the rod.
[0010] Furthermore, the telescopic pull rod adopts a telescopic pull rod in the form of a positioning cap, the exterior of which is made of titanium alloy. During installation, the telescopic length can be adjusted arbitrarily by twisting the positioning cap. The telescopic pull rod is convenient to extend and retract, the overall operation is simple, and the practicability is strong.
[0011] Furthermore, the diameter of the rubber sleeve in the semi-open fixed cover is equal to the diameter of the fixed rod, and the diameter of the rubber sleeve in the open circular protective cover is slightly larger than the diameter of the impacted rod (such as the incident rod, the transmission rod and the absorption rod), so that it can be suspended around the rod under the action of the supporting force.
[0012] A method for using a protective device capable of preventing a Hopkinson pressure bar from collapsing, the method comprising the following steps:
[0013] Step 1: Install the open circular guard on the impacted rod;
[0014] Step 2: Put two semi-open fixed covers tightly on the fixed pull rods on both sides of the Hopkinson pressure rod, with the hinge support facing outwards and the screw holes facing inwards, and connect them to one end of the two telescopic pull rods respectively;
[0015] Step 3: Connect the other ends of the two telescopic pull rods to the screw holes on both sides of the open circular protective cover (7) to form a whole to protect the rods.
[0016] Beneficial effects of the present invention:
[0017] The invention is a protective device with a simple structure and convenient operation, which can cleverly restrain the rod from deviating from the range of the impact track, ensure the safety of the test personnel, increase the safety factor of the experimental device, and effectively prevent the occurrence of safety accidents.
