Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the invention. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0051] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0052] The following is combined Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a specimen fixing and mounting device for the Hopkinson bar test, comprising:

[0053] Protective box 1, with openings on the top and one of its side walls;

[0054] The first cover plate 5 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the protective box 1;

[0055] A connecting component is rotatably connected to the end of the first cover plate 5;

[0056] The second cover plate 6 is rotatably connected to the first cover plate 5 via a connecting assembly;

[0057] Two fixing components are respectively installed on the two inner side walls of the protective box 1. The two fixing components are used to fix the first cover plate 5 and the second cover plate 6.

[0058] Limiting ring 12, with a rubber ring provided on the inner side wall of the limiting ring 12;

[0059] Two second connecting blocks 13 are provided on the outer wall of the limiting ring 12;

[0060] Two connecting rods 20, one end of each connecting rod 20 is rotatably connected to two second connecting blocks 13 respectively, and the other end of each connecting rod 20 is rotatably connected to a first connecting block 11 respectively. The two first connecting blocks 11 are fixed to the first cover plate 5 and the second cover plate 6 respectively.

[0061] Two positioning components are fixed to two connecting rods 20 respectively.

[0062] The specimen is passed through the limiting ring 12, and the rubber ring on the limiting ring 12 is used to fix the specimen to the limiting ring 12. During the fixing of the first cover plate 5 and the second cover plate 6, under the action of gravity, the two connecting rods 20 on the limiting ring 12 are eventually in a horizontal and a vertical state, so that the limiting ring 12 is located between the transmission rod 4 and the incident rod 3, thus realizing the positioning of the specimen.

[0063] Furthermore, the positioning components include:

[0064] Mounting block 21, with connecting holes on its side wall;

[0065] Slide rod 23 is slidably disposed within the connecting hole;

[0066] Baffle 22 is disposed at one end of slide bar 23;

[0067] A connecting plate 24 is provided at the other end of the slide rod 23. A spring 25 is provided on the side wall of the connecting plate 24, and the spring 25 is fixed to the mounting block 21.

[0068] Pulling the baffle 22 causes the connecting plate 24 to move via the slide rod 23, stretching the spring 25. Through the action of the spring 25, in conjunction with the slide rod 23 and the two baffles 22, the specimen is positioned so that it is in the center of the limiting ring 12.

[0069] Furthermore, the connection components include:

[0070] Connecting shaft 18 is disposed on the side wall of the second cover plate 6;

[0071] Rubber sleeve 19 is disposed on the outer wall of the connecting shaft 18;

[0072] A through hole is provided on the side wall of the first cover plate 5, and the rubber sleeve 19 abuts against the inner wall of the through hole.

[0073] The friction between the rubber sleeve 19 and the first cover plate 5 makes it difficult for the first cover plate 5 and the second cover plate 6 to rotate, thus ensuring the stability of the specimen during movement.

[0074] Furthermore, the fixing components include:

[0075] Support frame 10 is installed on the inner side wall of protective box 1;

[0076] Two mounting holes 16 are provided on the two side walls of the support frame 10, and a first magnet 14 is provided in each mounting hole 16.

[0077] Two mounting slots 17 are respectively opened on the side walls of the first cover plate 5 and the second cover plate 6, and a second magnet 15 is provided in each mounting slot 17.

[0078] The first cover plate 5 and the second cover plate 6 are fixed by mutual attraction between the two first magnets 14 on the support frame 10 and the second magnets 15 on the first cover plate 5 and the second cover plate 6.

[0079] Furthermore, it also includes:

[0080] Two blocks 8 are installed on the two inner side walls of the protective box 1.

[0081] Furthermore, it also includes:

[0082] Two round holes 9 are respectively opened on the two side walls of the protective box 1;

[0083] Two connecting seats 2 are respectively set in two circular holes 9;

[0084] The incident rod 3 and the transmission rod 4 are slidably connected to the two connecting seats 2 respectively.

[0085] Furthermore, it also includes:

[0086] Handle 7 is located on the side wall of the second cover plate 6.

[0087] The specific working method is as follows: First, the specimen is passed through the limiting ring 12. The rubber ring on the limiting ring 12 secures the specimen to itself. Next, the baffle 22 is pulled. During this pulling, the sliding rod 23 moves the connecting plate 24, stretching the spring 25. The spring 25, in conjunction with the sliding rod 23 and the two baffles 22, positions the specimen, placing it in the center of the limiting ring 12. Then, the handle 7 rotates the first cover plate 5 and the second cover plate 6. The stop block 8 keeps the first cover plate 5 horizontal and fixed. The two first magnets 14 on the support frame 10 and the second magnets 15 on the first cover plate 5 and the second cover plate 6... The mutual adsorption between the rubber sleeve 19 and the first cover plate 5 and the second cover plate 6 is used to fix the first cover plate 5 and the second cover plate 6. The friction between the rubber sleeve 19 and the first cover plate 5 makes it difficult for the first cover plate 5 and the second cover plate 6 to rotate, thus ensuring the stability of the specimen during the movement. During the fixing of the first cover plate 5 and the second cover plate 6, under the action of gravity, the two connecting rods 20 on the limiting ring 12 are eventually in a horizontal and a vertical state, so that the limiting ring 12 is positioned between the transmission rod 4 and the incident rod 3, thus realizing the positioning of the specimen. During this process, when the connecting rod 20 rotates, the mounting block 21 on the connecting rod 20 rotates accordingly, so that the baffle 22 moves away from the limiting ring 12, thus avoiding the baffle 22 from affecting the normal operation of the test during the test.

[0088] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
