If the ambient temperature factor is considered, the mechanical loading test machine can be placed inside a temperature box to obtain the mechanical response of the solid propellant under the influence of the dual coupling of different temperature and strain rates. However, when the test involves confining pressure loads, the complexity of the problem of how to form an effective solid propellant mechanical properties test system will be greatly increased.

[0003] The development of the solid propellant confining pressure loading test system is mainly aimed at the extraordinary environment of solid motor ignition. Therefore, the design of the confining pressure test system needs to consider at least three factors: ambient pressure, ambient temperature and loading strain rate.

[0054] It should be noted that the bidirectional screw is arranged in the pressure tank through the bearing assemblies at both ends, and the rotation speed and direction of the bidirectional screw are controlled by the power loading part outside the pressure tank. Further, the pressure tank is formed into a closed cavity by the end cover sealing ring, sealing end cover and bearing sealing ring arranged on the bidirectional screw, thereby providing a stable simulation environment for the test.

[0055] Specifically, in the embodiment of the utility model, the pressure container part 2 further includes: an observation window 204 , and the observation window 204 is arranged on the pressure tank 201 .

[0056] Specifically, in the embodiment of the utility model, the power loading unit 1 includes: a base 103; a coupling 102; and a motor 101. The motor 101 is arranged on the base 103, and the motor 101 is transmission-connected to the bidirectional screw 301 through the coupling 102.

[0057] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present utility model, the monitoring unit 4 includes:

[0066] In an embodiment of the present invention, a further implementation method is adopted, namely: a vibration device is added to perform vibration simulation on an external sample, wherein, since the vibration device can perform vibration simulation on an external sample, the state of the external sample under different vibration environments can be obtained, and thus, compared with the prior art, the mechanical properties of the solid propellant under the actual environment of different vibrations of the external sample can be detected. Therefore, a further implementation scheme of the present invention can, on the basis of solving the problems raised by the background technology, also have the effect of performing detection under a variety of experimental environments, thereby solving the problems of a single detection environment state and incomplete data.

[0069] In the embodiment of the present invention, through a further implementation method, that is, adding a gas pressure agitation device, when the local or partial solid propellant has been consumed, the confining pressure of the remaining solid propellant is simulated for the external sample. Among them, since the gas pressure agitation device can simulate the instantaneous change of the confining pressure of the external sample, it is possible to obtain the external sample in different instantaneous confining pressure states, and then compared with the prior art, it is possible to detect the mechanical properties of the external sample under different instantaneous confining pressures. Therefore, the further implementation scheme of the present invention can, on the basis of solving the technical problems raised by the background technology, also have the effect of testing in a variety of experimental environments, solving the problems of a single environmental state and incomplete data on the inspection side.

[0070] The present invention also provides a technical solution of the test method based on the first embodiment. In this technical solution, the clamping part with the sample is first installed on the in-situ stretching part, and the actual use environment of the solid propellant is simulated by controlling the temperature and air pressure data in the adjustment pressure tank. Then, under the conditions of preset temperature, air pressure and high strain rate, the solid propellant (sample) is stretched, and the strain-time curve function and stress-time curve function are collected, and finally a strain-stress curve function with high reliability and high accuracy is obtained.
