[0002] The plunger assembly is widely applied in the field of hydraulic pumps and is a key component of the products. After the plunger assembly is processed, the axial gap between the plunger seat and the ball head of the plunger rod needs to be measured. At present, the measurement of the inner hole of the plunger assembly generally adopts a horizontal measurement method. The plunger rod in the plunger assembly needs to be fixed, and then an axial pulling force is applied to the sliding shoe. The value is read through a dial gauge. The disadvantage of this method is that the pulling force cannot be quantified. Whether the force is along the axial direction cannot be guaranteed. The strength of a larger plunger assembly is large. The method can measure a certain gap value under the premise of avoiding damage to the plunger assembly, but for smaller plunger assemblies, especially micro motor plunger assemblies, the product appearance will be damaged.
