Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of precision measurement technology, and relates to a thread pitch diameter measuring device and its assembly and usage methods. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of the aerospace industry, the requirements for the machinery manufacturing industry are getting higher and higher, especially for threaded fasteners, which are widely used due to their simple structure, reliable connection, and convenient assembly and disassembly.

[0003] To address issues like loose or inaccurate threaded connections, precise thread measurement during manufacturing is essential. Currently, the accurate measurement of the pitch diameter of external threads generally employs the three-needle method, an indirect measurement method. During measurement, two measuring needles of the same diameter are placed in adjacent grooves on one side of the thread being measured, while a third needle is placed in the groove between the two needles on the opposite side. This position is the theoretical position. Measuring instruments for external dimensions include outside micrometers, lever micrometers, and length measuring machines. One end of the measuring instrument contacts two needles, and the other end contacts one needle, obtaining the distance between the two needles and the first needle. Then, based on the pitch, thread angle, and the diameters of the three needles, the thread pitch diameter is calculated.

[0004] Currently, when metrologists use the three-needle method to measure the pitch diameter of threads, they directly hold the three measuring needles by hand, without effectively fixing them in place. This introduces temperature errors, and the theoretical placement of the three needles requires repeated adjustments based on experience. The measurement is time-consuming and laborious, resulting in low work efficiency. In particular, the theoretical placement of the three needles requires a certain amount of training to ensure the accuracy of the measurement.

[0005] Therefore, improving the accuracy and efficiency of the three-needle method for measuring the pitch diameter of threads is an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0041] Step 3: According to the diameter D of the threaded part being tested, adjust the positions of the first, second, and third measuring needles so that the first, second, and third measuring needles are respectively embedded in the thread profile of the threaded part being tested. Measure and record the distance m between the far end of the first measuring needle and the plane containing the far ends of the second and third measuring needles.

[0042] Step 4: Based on m, calculate the mean diameter of the external thread of the threaded part being tested.

[0043] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0044] 1. This invention employs an indirect measurement method to achieve rapid and accurate measurement of the pitch diameter of external threads. By adjusting the first, second, and third positioning components, the first, second, and third measuring needles are moved to their theoretical positions, and precise readings can be obtained using the first and second positioning rulers.

[0046] 3. In this invention, the optimal position of different thread profile angles can be adjusted and measured by setting the base and the swing block (the so-called optimal position is to make the axis of the measuring needle coincide with the angle bisector of the thread profile angle, which can be achieved by the swing of the swing block for different thread profile angles).

[0047] 4. In this invention, the first bracket is provided to provide support, and the first connecting rope ensures that the first, second, and third measuring needles are always in a natural suspension state when using the three-needle bracket adjustment device, avoiding hand operation, reducing the influence of temperature error, and improving measurement accuracy.

[0048] 5. In this invention, a vernier caliper structure is formed by the first main scale and the first vernier scale, thereby improving measurement accuracy.

[0049] 6. In this invention, the first measuring needle is fixed by a first fixing rope and a first adjusting knob, which has a simple structure and ensures that the measuring needle is in a stable state.

[0050] 7. In this invention, the height of the measuring needle can be adjusted by the set slide groove and slider structure, so that the middle part of the working surface of the measuring needle can be embedded in the thread profile of the threaded part being measured.

[0051] 8. In this invention, the second positioning scale includes a second main scale and two second vernier scales. The distance between the second measuring needle and the third measuring needle can be positioned more accurately through the same second main scale, thereby improving the accuracy of the measurement.

[0052] 9. In this invention, by moving the bracket in the first positioning member, the second positioning member, and the third positioning member, the position formed by the first measuring needle, the second measuring needle, and the third measuring needle can be any shape including an isosceles triangle, which is applicable not only to ordinary thread measurement but also to other thread measurements.

[0053] 10. The device proposed in this invention solves the problem that the theoretical positions of the three measuring needles can only be adjusted based on experience without data reference. It is not only applicable to micrometers but also to length measuring instruments such as length measuring machines. Attached Figure Description

[0061] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0062] This invention proposes a thread pitch diameter measuring device, such as... Figures 1-5 As shown, it includes a first guide post 1, a support frame 2, a first connecting post 3, a second connecting post 4, a first positioning component 5, a second positioning component 6, a third positioning component 7, a first positioning ruler 8, a second positioning ruler 9, a first measuring needle 10, a second measuring needle 11, a third measuring needle 12, a base 13, a swing block 14, and fasteners for fixing the base 13 and the swing block 14, the fasteners being fastening screws.

[0068] The connection methods for each component are as follows:

[0069] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, the base 13 has an L-shaped structure with a semi-circular notch on one side. The swing block 14 has a semi-cylindrical structure on one side that matches the shape and size of the semi-circular notch, and a flat surface on the other side. The height of the swing block 14 is less than the distance between the lowest point of the semi-circular notch of the L-shaped structure and the other side of the L-shaped structure. One side of the swing block 14 is set inside the semi-circular notch and fixed by a fastening screw. The position of the swing block 14 can be adjusted by adjusting the tightness of the fastening screw. The other side of the swing block 14 is connected to the first guide post 1. The axis of the first guide post 1 is perpendicular to the axis of the semi-circular notch. The base 13 has a main engraving line 15 around its semi-circular notch. The minimum division value of the main engraving line 15 is 1°, and the engraving line is from -50° to +50°. An indicator line 16 is set in the middle of one side of the swing block 14.

[0070] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the upper end of the first guide post 1 is provided with a first planar notch along the axial direction. The first planar notch serves two purposes: firstly, to fix the position of the second mounting seat 23, and secondly, to limit the stroke of the second mounting seat 23. The second mounting seat 23 is sleeved on the upper end of the first guide post 1 and can slide along the axial direction of the first guide post 1. One end of the fastening screw is connected to the second mounting seat 23 and passes through the second mounting seat 23 to abut against the first planar notch of the first guide post 1, thereby fixing the position of the second mounting seat 23.

[0071] The second guide post 21 is mounted on the second mounting base 23 and is perpendicular to the first guide post 1. The end of the second guide post 21 away from the second mounting base 23 has a second planar notch along the axial direction. The second planar notch is used to fix the position of the first mounting base 22 and to limit the stroke of the first mounting base 22. The first mounting base 22 is sleeved on the end of the second guide post 21 away from the second mounting base 23 and can slide along the axial direction of the second guide post 21. One end of the fastening screw is connected to the first mounting base 22 and passes through the first mounting base 22 to abut against the second planar notch of the second guide post 21, thereby fixing the position of the first mounting base 22.

[0072] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the first connecting post 3 is mounted on the first mounting base 22, and the first connecting post 3 is perpendicular to the second guide post 21 and the first guide post 1. The side of the first connecting post 3 away from the second mounting base 23 is a plane. The first bracket 51 is sleeved on the first connecting post 3. The fastening screw is threaded to the first bracket 51 and passes through the first bracket 51 to abut against the plane side of the first connecting post 3. The upper end of the first bracket 51 is provided with a sliding groove with an open upper end. The first slider 17 is provided inside the sliding groove and is fixed by the corresponding fastening screw. The sliding direction of the first slider 17 is parallel to the sliding direction of the second mounting base 23. The first hook 53 is mounted on the upper end of the first slider 17 and can move with the movement of the first slider 17. The first measuring needle 10 is located on the first bracket 51 near the second mounting base 22. On one side, one end of the first connecting rope 52 passes through the needle hole of the first measuring needle 10, and the two ends are knotted to form a closed loop and hung on the first hook 53. The first adjusting knob 542 is installed on the side of the first bracket 51 away from the first measuring needle 10. The first adjusting knob 542 is provided with a winding groove. The first bracket 51 is provided with a wire hole. One end of the first fixing rope 541 is wound and fixed in the winding groove, and the other end passes through the wire hole and around the first measuring needle 10, and then passes through the wire hole again and is fixed on the first bracket 51. The first vernier scale 82 is set on the first bracket 51 and is located above the other end of the first fixing rope 541. One end of the first main scale 81 is installed on the first mounting base 22. The first main scale 81 is parallel to the first connecting post 3 and is located below the first vernier scale 82.

[0073] like Figure 3As shown, the second connecting post 4 is installed on the second mounting base 23 and is parallel to the first connecting post 3. The third positioning member 7 and the second positioning member 6 are installed on the second positioning post in the same manner as the first positioning member 5, in the direction away from the second mounting base 23. The second main scale 91 is installed on the second mounting base 23 and is parallel to the second connecting post 4. The two second vernier scales 92 are respectively installed at the corresponding positions of the second bracket 18 and the third bracket 20. The second measuring needle 11 and the third measuring needle 12 are respectively set on the corresponding second bracket 18 and the third bracket 20.

[0074] Based on the above-mentioned adjustment device, the present invention also proposes an assembly method for the above-mentioned adjustment device, comprising the following steps:

[0075] 1. For example Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, a semi-cylindrical swing block 14 is installed on the base 13. A main engraving line 15 is engraved on one side of the base 13. The minimum division value of the main engraving line 15 is 1°. The engraving line is from -50° to +50°. An indicator line 16 is engraved on one side of the swing block 14. The indicator line 16 can indicate the angle of swing of the swing block 14. The swing position can be fixed with fastening screws.

[0076] 2. The upper end of the swing block 14 is fixedly connected to the first guide post 1. The second mounting base 23 is fitted onto the first guide post 1 and fixed at any position by fastening screws. It is necessary to ensure that when the fastening screws are loosened, the second mounting base 23 can slide along the axial direction of the first guide post 1. The adjacent sides of the second mounting base 23 are respectively connected to the mutually perpendicular second connecting post 4 and the second guide post 21. The second connecting post 4 and the second guide post 21 are both perpendicular to the first guide post 1, so that the second connecting post 4, the second guide post 21 and the first guide post 1 form a three-dimensional structure (X, Y, Z axes) and can move along any axis.

[0077] 3. The first mounting base 22 is fitted onto the second guide post 21 and can slide on the second guide post 21. The first mounting base 22 is fixed at any position on the second guide post 21 by fastening screws. The first main scale 81 is fixed onto the first mounting base 22 by fastening screws. The first connecting post 3 is directly fixed onto the first mounting base 22. The first main scale 81 is parallel to the first connecting post 3.

[0078] 4. For example Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, one end of the first bracket 51 is fitted onto the first connecting post 3 and can slide on the first connecting post 3, and is positioned by a fastening screw; the other end is provided with a first vernier scale 82 above the first main scale 81, and a groove is opened above the first vernier scale 82. The first slider 17 is set in the groove and can slide along the groove. The first slider 17 can be fixed at any position in the groove by a fastening screw. The upper end of the first slider 17 is fixedly connected to the first hook 53; the first connecting rope 52 passes through the needle hole of the first measuring needle 10, is knotted and hung on the first hook 53, and at the same time, the first fixing rope 541 is looped on the first measuring needle 10. One end of the rope 541 is fixed to the first bracket 51 through the wire hole, and the other end of the first fixing rope 541 is wound around the winding groove of the first adjusting knob 542 through the wire hole, and the first adjusting knob 542 is fixed to the first bracket 51. The tension of the first fixing rope 541 is adjusted by the first adjusting knob 542. The size of the first fixing rope 541 should be slightly larger than the diameter of the first measuring needle 10. The height of the first measuring needle 10 can be adjusted by sliding the first slider 17 on the groove. The height position can be fixed by the fastening screw. The first bracket 51 can be moved to the theoretical position by pushing and pulling the first bracket 51 and reading the value on the first main scale 81.

[0079] 5. For example Figure 3 As shown, the second main scale 91 is fixed to the second mounting base 23 by fastening screws, and the second main scale 91 is parallel to the second connecting post 4; one end of the second bracket 18 and the third bracket 20 are sequentially fitted onto the second connecting post 4 and can slide on the second connecting post 4, and the positions of the second bracket 18 and the third bracket 20 are fixed by fastening screws respectively; the other end is provided with a second vernier scale 92 above the second main scale 91. The structure of the second bracket 18 and the third bracket 20 is exactly the same as that of the first bracket 51, and the second measuring needle 11 and the third measuring needle 12 are installed and fixed in the same way. By pushing and pulling the second bracket 18 and the third bracket 20 and reading on the second main scale 91, the second measuring needle 11 and the third measuring needle 12 can be moved to the theoretical position.

[0080] Based on the above-described adjustment device and its assembly method, the present invention also proposes a method for applying the above-described device, comprising the following steps:

[0081] 1. First, hang the first measuring needle 10, the second measuring needle 11, and the third measuring needle 12. Move the first mounting base 22 and the first bracket 51 so that the plane containing the axis of the first measuring needle 10 and the axis of the second measuring needle 11 is perpendicular to the first connecting post 3. Secure the first bracket 51 and the second bracket 18. Read the initial position X of the first measuring needle 10 on the first vernier 82 and the initial position Y of the second measuring needle 11 on the second vernier 92.

[0082] 2. Assuming the pitch of the threaded part being tested is P, first loosen the third bracket 20 on the second connecting post 4, move the third bracket 20 to the (Y+P) position and then tighten it. Move the first bracket 51 on the first connecting post 3 to the (X+P / 2) position and then tighten it. At this time, the first measuring needle 10, the second measuring needle 11 and the third measuring needle 12 are all in the theoretical position.

[0083] 3. Based on the diameter of the threaded part being measured, move the second mounting base 23 to coarsely adjust the vertical positions of the first measuring needle 10, the second measuring needle 11, and the third measuring needle 12 so that the center of the working surface of the measuring needle coincides as much as possible with the center of the threaded part being measured.

Use a micrometer, length measuring machine, or other length measuring instruments to measure the distance m between the plane containing the distal end of the first measuring needle 10 and the distal ends of the second and third measuring needles 11. Calculate the pitch diameter of the external thread of the threaded part being measured using the following formula:

[0084]

[0085] Where m represents the measurement value given by the micrometer or instrument, and d D The values ​​represent the diameter of the measuring needle, α is the tooth profile angle, P is the pitch, A1 is the helix angle correction value, and A2 is the measuring force correction value.

[0086] In this invention, different thread diameters can be measured by adjusting the distance between the first mounting base 22 and the second mounting base 23.

[0087] Different pitch sizes can be measured by adjusting the distance between the first bracket 51, the second bracket 18 and the third bracket 20.

[0088] The optimal position for different thread profile angles can be adjusted and measured by the tilting of the tilting block 14.
