[0015] Further, the test positioning device for the base metal thermocouple verification furnace further includes an electrical measuring instrument, and the electrical measuring instrument is used for electrically connecting with the fixed standard couple and the movable standard couple.

[0016] On the other hand, the present application also provides a test positioning method for a base metal thermocouple verification furnace. The test positioning method for the base metal thermocouple verification furnace is performed by using the above-mentioned test positioning device, and the test positioning method includes:

[0017] Step S1: Test the axial temperature field of the base metal thermocouple verification furnace in accordance with the Technical Specification for Temperature Field Test of Thermocouple Verification Furnace JJF 1184-2007;

[0040] The following further describes the present invention in detail with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments. According to the following description and the claims, the advantages and features of the present invention will be more clear. It should be noted that the drawings are all in a very simplified form and are all applicable to non-precise scales, only for conveniently and clearly assisting in explaining the purpose of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0041] It should be noted that, in order to clearly illustrate the content of the present invention, the present invention specifically gives multiple embodiments to further illustrate different implementation manners of the present invention. Among them, the multiple embodiments are listed rather than exhaustive. In addition, for the sake of brevity of description, the content already mentioned in the previous embodiments is often omitted in the subsequent embodiments. Therefore, the content not mentioned in the subsequent embodiments can be correspondingly referred to the previous embodiments.

[0042] See Figures 1 to 4 As shown, according to an embodiment of the present application, a test positioning device for a base metal thermocouple calibration furnace is provided, hereinafter referred to as the test positioning device. The test positioning device is used to position the movable standard couple 100 and the fixed standard couple 110 during the test of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10. The base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10 in this embodiment includes a temperature measurement hole 11, and the temperature measurement hole 11 is disposed through the axial direction of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10. During the actual test process, both the movable standard couple 100 and the fixed standard couple 110 are positioned in the temperature measurement hole 11 through the test positioning device.

[0043] Specifically, the test positioning device in this embodiment includes a positioning main body 20, movable chucks, and a driving arm 80. Among them, the positioning main body 20 is rotatably installed in the temperature measuring hole 11, and a positioning cavity 21 is provided in the axial direction of the positioning main body 20; there are two movable chucks, and the two movable chucks are detachably installed side by side in the positioning cavity 21 to form a first positioning hole 50, a second positioning hole 60, and a third positioning hole 70 in the positioning cavity 21 by surrounding. The axis of the first positioning hole 50 is consistent with the axis of the temperature measuring hole 11. The second positioning hole 60 and the third positioning hole 70 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the first positioning hole 50, and the axial directions of the second positioning hole 60 and the third positioning hole 70 are both parallel to the axial direction of the first positioning hole 50. During the actual test, the first positioning hole 50, the second positioning hole 60, and the third positioning hole 70 are used to position the fixed standard couple 110 or the movable standard couple 100; the driving arm 80 is connected to the positioning main body 20, and the driving arm 80 drives the positioning main body 20 to rotate in the temperature measuring hole 11 under the action of an external force.

[0044] When it is necessary to test the base metal thermocouple verification furnace 10, first install the test positioning device in the temperature measuring hole 11 of the base metal thermocouple verification furnace 10. Thereafter, the axial temperature field and the radial temperature field of the base metal thermocouple verification furnace 10 can be tested in accordance with the JJF 1184-2007 Technical Specification for Temperature Field Testing of Thermocouple Verification Furnaces.

[0045] When testing the axial temperature field of the base metal thermocouple verification furnace 10, only need to install the fixed standard couple 110 in the first positioning hole 50 and make the fixed standard couple 110 located at the geometric center of the base metal thermocouple verification furnace 10, then install the movable standard couple 100 in the second positioning hole 60. Thereafter, move the movable standard couple 100 in the second positioning hole 60 and calculate the potential difference and convert it into temperature in accordance with the JJF 1184-2007 Technical Specification for Temperature Field Testing of Thermocouple Verification Furnaces, and then the test of the axial temperature field of the base metal thermocouple verification furnace 10 can be completed.

[0046] Thereafter, the radial temperature field of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10 can be tested. At this time, the measuring ends of the fixed standard thermocouple 110 and the moving standard thermocouple 100 are both located on the axial center cross-section of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10. Then, an external force is applied to the driving arm 80 to make the positioning main body 20 rotate within the temperature measurement hole 11 of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10, thereby driving the moving standard thermocouple 100 within the second positioning hole 60 to move to four positions, namely, the upper, right, lower, and left positions of the axial center cross-section of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10. The thermoelectric potential differences between the fixed standard thermocouple 110 and the moving standard thermocouple 100 at each position are respectively tested and measured. Thereafter, the positions of the moving standard thermocouple 100 and the fixed standard thermocouple 110 are interchanged, and the driving arm 80 is applied with force again to make the fixed standard thermocouple 110 move to the above-mentioned four positions of the axial center cross-section, and the thermoelectric potential differences between the fixed standard thermocouple 110 and the moving standard thermocouple 100 at each position are respectively measured and recorded. Finally, after calculating the potential difference according to the JJF1184-2007 Technical Specification for Testing the Temperature Field of Thermocouple Calibration Furnaces and converting it into temperature, the test of the radial temperature field of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10 can be completed.

[0047] It can be understood that the meaning of interchanging the positions of the moving standard thermocouple 100 and the fixed standard thermocouple 110 in this embodiment is to make the moving standard thermocouple 100 located within the first positioning hole 50 and the fixed standard thermocouple 110 located outside the first positioning hole 50. Specifically, the fixed standard thermocouple 110 can be located within the second positioning hole 60 or within the third positioning hole 70. Since two movable plugs are provided in this embodiment, during the process of interchanging the fixed standard thermocouple 110 and the moving standard thermocouple 100, only one of the two movable plugs needs to be removed, and then the other movable plug, the fixed standard thermocouple 110, and the moving standard thermocouple 100 are pushed to move within the positioning cavity 21, and then the removed movable plug is inserted into the positioning cavity 21. That is to say, when it is necessary to interchange the positions of the fixed standard thermocouple 110 and the moving standard thermocouple 100, only the positions of the two movable slots need to be interchanged, and at the same time, the fixed standard thermocouple 110 and the moving standard thermocouple 100 are moved within the positioning cavity 21.

[0048] According to the above structure, it can be known that since the test positioning device in this embodiment is provided with two movable chucks, the above two movable chucks are detachably installed in the positioning cavity 21, and can form a first positioning hole 50, a second positioning hole 60 and a third positioning hole 70 in the positioning cavity 21 for positioning the fixed standard couple 110 and the movable standard couple 100. During the actual radial temperature field test of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10, by changing the positions of the two movable chucks, the positions of the fixed standard couple 110 and the movable standard couple 100 can be quickly interchanged, which can well meet the test requirements of the axial temperature field and the radial temperature field of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10, greatly improving the test efficiency of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace and saving the test time.

[0049] Specifically, the cross-section of the positioning cavity 21 in this embodiment is a long strip cross-section, and both ends of the long strip cross-section are arc surfaces. For the convenience of distinction, in this embodiment, the two movable chucks include a first movable chuck 30 and a second movable chuck 40 respectively marked. Among them, a first semi-circular groove 31 is provided on the first side of the first movable chuck 30, and a second semi-circular groove 32 is provided on the second side of the first movable chuck 30 opposite to the first side. The first semi-circular groove 31 is buckled on the inner wall of the positioning cavity 21 and forms the second positioning hole 60 with the inner wall of the positioning cavity 21. Specifically, the first semi-circular groove 31 is buckled on the first end of the long strip cross-section and forms the above second positioning hole 60 with the arc surface at the end of the long strip cross-section; a third semi-circular groove 41 is provided on the first side of the second movable chuck 40, and the third semi-circular groove 41 and the second semi-circular groove 32 form the first positioning hole 50. A fourth semi-circular groove 42 is provided on the second side of the second movable chuck 40 opposite to the first side, and the fourth semi-circular groove 42 is buckled on the inner wall of the positioning cavity 21 and forms the above third positioning hole 70 with the inner wall of the positioning cavity 21. Specifically, the fourth semi-circular groove 42 is buckled on the second end of the long strip cross-section and forms the above third positioning hole 70 with the arc surface at the end of the long strip cross-section. With such a setting, when it is necessary to interchange the positions of the fixed standard couple 110 and the movable standard couple 100, only one of the first movable chuck 30 or the second movable chuck 40 needs to be removed, and the other movable chuck, the fixed standard couple 110 and the movable standard couple 100 located in the positioning cavity 21 are pushed along the length direction of the long strip cross-section, and then the removed movable chuck groove is reinstalled into the positioning cavity 21 and the fixed standard couple 110 and the movable standard couple 100 are fixed. The operation is simple and easy to implement.

[0050] Further, the test positioning device in this embodiment further includes a locking assembly 120, which has a locking position for locking the movable plug and an unlocking position for unlocking the movable plug. Through the action of the locking assembly 120, the movable plug can be locked in the positioning cavity 21, which can improve the use stability and reliability of the test positioning device in this embodiment.

[0051] Exemplarily, the locking assembly 120 in this embodiment includes a telescopic mechanism, which is arranged on the positioning main body 20 and telescopically extends along the radial direction of the positioning cavity 21 to switch between the locking position and the unlocking position. Optionally, the telescopic mechanism in this embodiment can be a telescopic cylinder, which is installed on the positioning main body 20. During actual operation, a control button 121 can be arranged on the positioning main body 20, and the control button 121 can control the telescopic cylinder. When the telescopic cylinder extends towards the inside of the positioning cavity 21, the movable plug can be pushed and fixed in the positioning cavity 21, with a simple structure and easy to implement.

[0052] In addition, in other embodiments of the application, the telescopic mechanism can also be a combined structure of a jacking post and a spring. During actual installation, both ends of the spring are respectively connected to the jacking post and the positioning main body 20, and the length direction of the jacking post is perpendicular to the axis direction of the positioning cavity 21. Correspondingly, a positioning hole adapted to the jacking post can be arranged on the movable plug. After the movable plug is inserted into the positioning cavity 21, the jacking post can bounce up under the action of the spring and be inserted into the positioning hole on the movable plug, thereby locking the movable plug in the positioning cavity 21, with a simple structure and easy to implement.

[0053] The above-mentioned telescopic mechanisms are only examples. As long as they are other deformation methods under the concept of this application, they are all within the protection scope of this application.

[0054] Further, a pushing member (not shown in the figure) can also be arranged in the positioning cavity 21 in this embodiment. The pushing member can be a structure such as a pushing cylinder. Through the action of the pushing member, the movable plug can be pushed out of the positioning cavity 21, with a simple structure and convenient for use and operation.

[0055] Further, the driving arm 80 in this embodiment includes a straight segment 81, the length direction of the straight segment 81 is parallel to the length direction of the temperature measuring hole 11, and a scale 82 is arranged on the straight segment 81. With such a setting, during the axial temperature field test of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10, the tester can quickly move the moving standard thermocouple 100 with reference to the scale 82 on the straight segment 81, which can further improve the test efficiency of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10.

[0056] Meanwhile, through the action of the driving arm 80, when it is necessary to drive the positioning main body 20 to rotate in the temperature measuring hole 11, the force-applying part of the tester can be at a certain distance from the positioning main body 20, which can avoid the safety hazard of scalding the tester during the test.

[0057] Furthermore, the test positioning device in this embodiment further includes an electrical measuring instrument 90, which is used to be electrically connected to the fixed standard couple 110 and the moving standard couple 100, and can read or calculate the detection values of the fixed standard couple 110 and the moving standard couple 100, which can improve the test efficiency of the test positioning device in this embodiment. Optionally, a changeover switch or the like can still be provided on the electrical measuring instrument 90 to select whether to read the data of the fixed standard couple 110 or the moving standard couple 100.

[0058] Combined with Figures 1 to 5 As shown, on the other hand, the embodiment of the present application also provides a test positioning method for a base metal thermocouple calibration furnace, and the test positioning method for the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace is executed by using the above-mentioned test positioning device.

[0059] Specifically, the test positioning method includes the following steps:

[0060] Step S1: Test the axial temperature field of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10 in accordance with the temperature field test technical specification of JJF 1184-2007 for thermocouple calibration furnaces.

[0061] In this step, first, set the furnace temperature of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10 at the test temperature point. After the furnace temperature stability meets the requirements of the regulations, install the fixed standard couple 110 in the first positioning hole 50 and make the fixed standard couple 110 fixed at the geometric center of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10; then install the moving standard couple 100 in the second positioning hole 60, and make the moving standard couple 100 take the geometric center as the 0 cm position and move successively between -5 cm and +5 cm along the length direction of the first positioning hole 50. During this process, the tester can quickly move the moving standard couple 100 through the scale 82 on the driving arm 80; then record the thermoelectric potential differences between the fixed standard couple 110 and the moving standard couple 100 at -5 cm, -4 cm, -3 cm, -2 cm, -1 cm, 0 cm, +1 cm, +2 cm, +3 cm, +4 cm, and +5 cm and the thermoelectric potential difference at the "0" point. Make a round trip. Subtract the arithmetic mean of the two thermoelectric potential differences measured at the "0" point from the arithmetic mean of the two thermoelectric potential differences measured at any point between the moving standard couple 100 and the fixed standard couple 110 to obtain the thermoelectric potential value difference of the moving standard couple 100 relative to the "0" point at any point and convert it into temperature, which is the axial temperature field distribution.

[0062] Step S2: Test the radial temperature field of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10 in accordance with the Technical Specification for Temperature Field Test of Thermocouple Calibration Furnace JJF 1184-2007.

[0063] After completing Step S1, proceed to Step S2. In this step, first place the measurement ends of both the fixed standard thermocouple 110 and the moving standard thermocouple 100 on the axial center cross-section of the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10. Then apply a force to the drive arm 80 to rotate the positioning body 20 within the temperature measurement hole 11, thereby causing the moving standard thermocouple 100 to move to the four positions of up, right, down, and left on the axial center cross-section. Measure and record the thermoelectric potential differences between the fixed standard thermocouple 110 and the moving standard thermocouple 100 at each position. Next, swap the positions of the moving standard thermocouple 100 and the fixed standard thermocouple 110, and again apply a force to the drive arm 80 to cause the fixed standard thermocouple 110 to move to the four positions of up, right, down, and left on the axial center cross-section. Measure and record the thermoelectric potential differences between the fixed standard thermocouple 110 and the moving standard thermocouple 100 at each position. Finally, subtract the arithmetic mean of the two thermoelectric potential differences measured at the "0" point from the arithmetic mean of the two thermoelectric potential differences measured at any point by the moving standard thermocouple 100 with respect to the fixed standard thermocouple 110, and convert the result into temperature. This value is the radial temperature field distribution of the axial center cross-section.

[0064] Specifically, the step of swapping the positions of the moving standard thermocouple 100 and the fixed standard thermocouple 110 includes: removing the second movable plug 40 from the positioning cavity 21, moving the first movable plug 30 within the positioning cavity 21 so that the fixed standard thermocouple 110 enters the position of the third positioning hole 70; and inserting the second movable plug 40 into the positioning cavity 21 so that the moving standard thermocouple 100 enters the position of the first positioning hole 50.

[0065] Finally, mark the center position and the test end of the temperature field on the base metal thermocouple calibration furnace 10 to complete the test.

[0066] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0067] (1) By using a drive arm with scales, it is possible to visually determine and monitor the moving distance of the moving standard thermocouple during the axial temperature field test, avoiding many problems such as repeated marking and inaccurate scribing during the test of different base metal thermocouple calibration furnaces.

[0068] (2) Move the movable plug on the test positioning device and make the movable plug form a first positioning hole, a second positioning hole and a third positioning hole around the positioning cavity, which can conveniently and quickly change the position during the radial temperature field test of the base metal thermocouple verification furnace, meet the test requirements of the radial temperature field in the specification.

[0069] For ease of description, spatial relative terms, such as "above", "on top of", "on the upper surface", "above-mentioned", etc., may be used herein to describe the spatial positional relationship of one device or feature to another device or feature as shown in the figures. It should be understood that the spatial relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures is inverted, the device described as "above" or "on top of" another device or structure will then be positioned "below" or "beneath" the other device or structure. Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both the orientations of "above" and "below". The device may also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the corresponding explanations for the spatial relative descriptions used herein will be made accordingly.

[0070] In addition, it should be noted that the use of words such as "first" and "second" to limit components is only for the convenience of distinguishing the corresponding components. Without further statement, the above words have no special meaning, and thus should not be construed as limiting the protection scope of the present application.

[0071] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present application and are not used to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, various changes and modifications can be made to the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
