Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of testing devices for refractory material production lines, and more particularly to a testing device for refractory material production lines. Background Technology
[0002] Refractory materials are used in various sectors of the national economy, including steel, non-ferrous metals, glass, cement, ceramics, petrochemicals, machinery, boilers, light industry, power, and military industry. They are essential basic materials for ensuring the production, operation, and technological development of these industries, playing an irreplaceable role in the development of high-temperature industrial production. After the refractory materials are produced and formed, they need to undergo flexural strength testing. By testing their flexural strength, the pass rate of the product can be further determined, effectively ensuring product quality. In traditional refractory material production lines, the refractory materials are pressed manually using tools. However, the pressure value that the refractory materials can withstand is inaccurate when judged manually, making it impossible to determine whether the product is qualified based on the correct pressure value, thus affecting the product pass rate. Moreover, this process is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and has low work efficiency.
[0003] In response, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN202122298994.8 discloses "a testing device for a refractory material production line, comprising a support platform, a material changing mechanism, a positioning mechanism, and a pressing mechanism. The material changing mechanism includes a motor and a shifting platform. The shifting platform is rotatably mounted on the upper part of the support platform, and its rotating shaft is connected to the motor located below the support platform. A central column is fixed in the center of the upper part of the shifting platform, and a universal pulley is provided at its bottom along the circumferential direction. The universal pulley slides along the circumference on the surface of the support platform. The positioning mechanism includes a clamping seat and a telescopic component. The clamping seats are evenly distributed around the periphery of the shifting platform along the circumference. The clamping seat includes a fixed seat fixed to the shifting platform and an adjustable seat that slides on the surface of the shifting platform. A telescopic component is fixed between the rear side of the adjustable seat and the central column."
[0004] This patent uses a cylinder output shaft to control a top pressure head to apply pressure to the refractory material. The pressure sensor is also under pressure. When the top pressure head outputs the set pressure value, the pressure sensor will transmit the top pressure information to the controller in the control box. However, after the previous refractory material is tested, the next refractory material cannot be automatically replaced. The motor needs to be manually operated to replace it, which cannot realize the automatic replacement of refractory materials, thus affecting the overall work efficiency. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation
[0025] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.
[0026] Example 1:
[0027] Reference Figure 1-2 A testing device for a refractory material production line includes a support platform 1, a mounting frame 2 fixedly installed at one end of the top of the support platform 1, a pressure testing mechanism 3 installed on the mounting frame 2, a positioning mechanism 4 installed on the top of the support platform 1 to position and fix the refractory material, the positioning mechanism 4 being located below the pressure testing mechanism 3, and a control box 6 fixedly installed on the outside of the mounting frame 2.
[0028] The pressure testing mechanism 3 includes a first internal threaded cylinder 31, a lead screw 32, a pressure sensor 33, a compression block 34, a limiting block 35, a first motor 36, a first gear 37, and a second gear 38. The first internal threaded cylinder 31 is rotatably mounted on the top of the mounting frame 2. The lead screw 32 passes through the first internal threaded cylinder 31 and the top wall of the mounting frame 2 and is threadedly connected to the first internal threaded cylinder 31. The pressure sensor 33 is fixedly mounted on the bottom end of the lead screw 32. The compression block 34 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the pressure sensor 33. The limiting block 35 is fixedly mounted on the top of the lead screw 32. The pressure sensor 33 is signal-connected to the control box 6. The first motor 36 is fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting frame 2. The first gear 37 is fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the first motor 36. The second gear 38 is fixedly mounted on the top end of the first internal threaded cylinder 31 and meshes with the first gear 37. A guide rod 38 is fixedly installed between the limiting block 35 and the pressure sensor 33. The guide rod 38 passes through the top wall of the mounting frame 2 and is slidably connected to the mounting frame 2.
[0029] Working principle: First, the refractory material is positioned and fixed on the positioning mechanism 4. Then, the first motor 36 is started to make the first gear 37 rotate, which causes the second gear 38 to drive the first internal threaded cylinder 31 to rotate synchronously. This allows the lead screw 32 to drive the extrusion block 34 to move downward, thus extruding the refractory material. At the same time, the pressure sensor 33 can detect the pressure and transmit the top pressure information to the controller in the control box. Finally, the state of the refractory material after extrusion is used to determine whether the refractory material is qualified.
[0030] Example 2:
[0031] Reference Figure 1-6 In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the difference from Embodiment 1 is that the positioning mechanism 4 includes a hollow shaft 41, a turntable 42, a plurality of guide balls 43, and a plurality of clamping members 46. The hollow shaft 41 passes through the support platform 1 and is rotatably connected to the support platform 1. The turntable 42 is fixedly installed on the top of the hollow shaft 41. The plurality of guide balls 43 are rotatably installed on the bottom of the turntable 42 and are evenly distributed around the turntable 42. The plurality of clamping members 46 are installed on the top of the turntable 42 and are evenly distributed around the turntable 42. A guide groove 11 matching the guide balls 43 is provided on the top surface of the support platform 1. The guide groove 11 has an annular structure, and the plurality of guide balls 43 can roll along the guide groove 11. The guide balls 43 can ensure that the turntable 42 can rotate smoothly, which greatly improves the overall stability of the positioning mechanism 4.
[0032] The clamping component 46 includes a fixed clamp 461, a slide rail 462, a movable clamp 463, a fixed plate 464, a second internal threaded cylinder 465, a screw 466, and a second bevel gear 467. The fixed clamp 461 is fixedly installed on the outer edge of the top of the turntable 42, the slide rail 462 is fixedly installed on the top of the turntable 42, the movable clamp 463 is slidably installed on the slide rail 462, the fixed plate 464 is fixedly installed on the top of the turntable 42, the second internal threaded cylinder 465 passes through the fixed plate 464 and is rotatably connected to the fixed plate 464, one end of the screw 466 is threadedly connected to the second internal threaded cylinder 465, and the other end of the screw 466 is fixedly connected to the movable clamp 463. The second bevel gear 467 is fixedly installed at the end of the second internal threaded cylinder 465. A through-rotating shaft 44 is rotatably installed inside the hollow shaft 41, and a first bevel gear 45 is fixedly installed on the top of the shaft 44. Several second bevel gears 467 mesh with the first bevel gear 45. The movable clamp 463 and the fixed clamp 461 can clamp the refractory material to ensure that the refractory material will not shift during the compression process.
[0033] A drive mechanism 5 is installed at the bottom of the support platform 1. The drive mechanism 5 includes a fixed frame 51, a rotating seat 52, a second motor 54, a rotating wheel 55, a connecting plate 56, a drive block 57, and a third motor 58. The fixed frame 51 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the support platform 1, and the rotating seat 52 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the hollow shaft 41. The rotating seat 52 has several mating slots 53 that correspond one-to-one with the clamping parts 46. The second motor 54 is fixedly installed on the fixed frame 51, and the rotating wheel 55 is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the second motor 54. One end of the connecting plate 56 is coaxially fixedly connected to the rotating wheel 55, and the other end of the connecting plate 56 is fixedly connected to the drive block 57. The drive block 57 can cooperate with any of the mating slots 53. The third motor 58 is fixedly installed on the fixed frame 51, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 44.
[0034] Working principle: First, multiple refractory materials are placed inside different clamping parts 46. Then, the third motor 58 is started to rotate the shaft 44, which causes the first bevel gear 45 to drive all the second bevel gears 467 to rotate. This causes all the second internal threaded cylinders 465 to rotate, which in turn causes all the screws 466 to drive the corresponding movable clamps 463 to slide towards the fixed clamp 461. This allows the movable clamps 463 and the fixed clamp 461 to clamp the refractory materials, effectively ensuring that the refractory materials do not shift during compression. In addition, this design can position refractory materials of different sizes, making it widely applicable.
[0035] During operation, starting the first motor 36 causes the first gear 37 to rotate, which in turn causes the second gear 38 to drive the first internal threaded cylinder 31 to rotate synchronously. This allows the lead screw 32 to drive the extrusion block 34 to move downward, thus extruding the refractory material. At the same time, the pressure sensor 33 can detect the pressure and transmit the top pressure information to the controller in the control box. Finally, the state of the refractory material after extrusion is used to determine whether the refractory material is qualified.
[0036] During operation, the second motor 54 is started simultaneously, causing the rotating wheel 55 to drive the connecting plate 56 to rotate. When the drive block 57 engages with one of the docking slots 53, the rotating seat 52 will drive the hollow shaft 41 to rotate a certain angle and then stop rotating. When the drive block 57 engages with the next docking slot 53, the rotating seat 52 will drive the hollow shaft 41 to rotate the same angle again. This cycle continues, and the hollow shaft 41 can drive the turntable 42 to rotate intermittently, which can realize the automatic switching of refractory materials and greatly improve the detection efficiency of refractory materials.

Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
