Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of hot-rolled spring pressure testing, and more particularly to a spring pressure testing apparatus. Background Technology
[0002] Locomotive bogie springs have a relatively large diameter and are generally produced using a hot-rolling process. After production, many samples need to be taken for pressure testing to confirm whether the batch of springs is qualified. The pressure test is generally conducted using a pneumatic spring pressure testing machine. In practice, the springs are manually loaded, then the position is adjusted, and then the spring pressure testing machine operates to perform the pressure test. Finally, the springs are removed and replaced with the next spring.
[0003] In the aforementioned related technologies, since the locomotive bogie springs themselves have a large mass and the number of test samples is large, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive to manually load and unload the springs and adjust their positions at the same time, which is not conducive to improving the efficiency of testing. At the same time, operators are also prone to accidental injury. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To reduce manual intervention and improve testing efficiency, this invention provides a spring pressure testing device.
[0005] The spring pressure testing device provided by this invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A spring pressure testing device includes a base plate, a pressure testing mechanism, and a loading / unloading mechanism. Both the pressure testing mechanism and the loading / unloading mechanism are disposed on the upper surface of the base plate. The pressure testing mechanism includes a bottom support assembly and an upper pressure application assembly. The bottom support assembly is fixed to the upper surface of the base plate. The upper pressure application assembly includes a pressure testing section horizontally movable on the upper surface of the base plate and a horizontal drive section for driving the pressure testing section. The loading / unloading mechanism includes a spring moving section vertically lifted on the upper surface of the base plate and a vertical drive section for driving the spring moving section. The spring moving section is located directly above the bottom support assembly. The spring moving section includes a moving bracket and a horizontal conveyor belt. The horizontal conveyor belt is disposed on the moving bracket and used for horizontally conveying springs. A plurality of evenly distributed spring clamping members are disposed on the conveyor belt body of the horizontal conveyor belt.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when loading and unloading are required, the horizontal drive unit moves the pressure test unit away from the bottom support component, and then the vertical drive unit moves the spring moving unit down towards the bottom support component. When the spring is being loaded, the spring clamp releases the spring on it so that the spring is placed on the bottom support component, thus ensuring accurate spring loading. When the spring is being unloaded, the spring clamp starts to grab the spring on the bottom support component. In this way, no manual intervention is required during loading and unloading, effectively improving the testing efficiency.
[0008] Optionally, the spring clamping member includes a pair of clamping electric cylinders and a pair of semi-circular clamping rings; the openings of the pair of clamping rings are opposite to each other; the clamping electric cylinders correspond one-to-one with the clamping rings and the pair of clamping electric cylinders drive the pair of clamping rings to move away from or towards each other synchronously.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the spring is gripped when a pair of clamping rings are close to each other, and the spring is released when a pair of clamping rings are far apart, which makes it convenient to pick up and put down the spring.
[0010] Optionally, the spring clamping member further includes a clamping base plate; the clamping base plate is fixed on the conveyor belt body; a pair of clamping electric cylinders and a pair of clamping rings are disposed on the end face of the clamping base plate away from the conveyor belt body.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, a pair of clamping rings grip the spring, with one end of the spring abutting against the clamping base plate, which makes the spring position stable and facilitates loading and unloading.
[0012] Optionally, the movable support includes a pair of downward-facing "U"-shaped support side plates; the clamping base plate and the conveyor belt body are located between the pair of support side plates; a pair of horizontally arranged cylindrical guide posts are respectively formed on a pair of end faces of the clamping base plate near the pair of support side plates; annular guide grooves are respectively formed on the end faces of the pair of support side plates that are close to each other, allowing the pair of guide posts on the corresponding sides to slide; the path of the guide grooves is the same as the conveying path of the horizontal conveyor belt.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, when the horizontal conveyor belt drives the spring clamping component to move, the two pairs of guide posts on the clamping base plate are slidably set in a pair of guide ring grooves. This makes the position of the clamping base plate more stable, and thus the position of the spring on the clamping base plate is also more stable, which is beneficial for loading and unloading materials.
[0014] Optionally, the pressure testing unit includes a pressure support frame, a pressure component, and a pressure seat; the pressure seat is vertically movably mounted on the pressure support frame; the pressure component is fixed on the pressure support frame and is used to drive the pressure seat; the pressure seat includes a circular plate-shaped pressure plate and several vertically arranged cylindrical upper limit rods evenly distributed on the pressure plate; the lower end of the upper limit rod is lower than the lower end face of the pressure plate.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the upper limit rod plays a limiting and blocking role, so that during the pressure test, the force direction of the spring is completely axial and the radial movement of the spring is prevented.
[0016] Optionally, the upper limit rod is vertically inserted through the pressure plate, and the height of the upper limit rod relative to the pressure plate is adjustable.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the upper and lower positions of the upper limit lever can be adjusted, so that the limiting and blocking functions of the upper limit lever can be adjusted to the optimal level.
[0018] Optionally, the bottom support assembly includes a support base and a lower spring support member disposed on the upper surface of the support base; the lower spring support member includes a lower support plate and a plurality of vertically arranged cylindrical lower limit rods evenly distributed on the lower support plate; when the pressure seat is located directly above the bottom support assembly, the upper limit rod and the lower limit rod correspond one-to-one.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the upper limit rod limits and blocks the upper end of the spring, and the lower limit rod limits and blocks the lower end of the spring, so that the position of the spring is more stable during pressure testing.
[0020] Optionally, it also includes a non-conforming discharge mechanism; the non-conforming discharge mechanism includes a pushing component and a horizontal discharge component; the pushing component and the horizontal discharge component are disposed on the upper surface of the base plate and located on both sides of the bottom support component; the pushing component and the horizontal discharge component are distributed along the moving direction of the pressure test section; the lower end support member of the spring also includes a lower end abutment plate fixed on the support base and a lifting drive component fixed on the upper surface of the lower end abutment plate; the lifting drive component drives the lower end support plate to move vertically up and down; the lower limit rod is fixed on the upper surface of the lower end abutment plate and passes vertically through the lower end support plate; the pushing component is used to push the non-conforming spring on the lower end support plate into the horizontal discharge component; the horizontal discharge component is used to discharge the non-conforming spring.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the lifting drive component drives the lower support plate to rise so that the upper surfaces of the lower support plate and the lower limit rod are flush. Then, the pushing component pushes the spring on the lower support plate into the horizontal discharge component. The horizontal discharge component discharges the unqualified springs, which makes it convenient to discharge the unqualified springs and effectively completes the classification of qualified and unqualified springs.
[0022] Optionally, the horizontal discharge assembly includes a discharge support frame and a horizontal discharge conveyor belt; the discharge support frame includes an inner support frame near the bottom support assembly and an outer support frame away from the bottom support assembly; the discharge conveyor belt body of the horizontal discharge conveyor belt is disposed between the inner support frame and the outer support frame; the inner support frame includes an inner support body; the outer support frame includes an outer support body; the upper end face of the inner support body, the upper end face of the outer support body, the upper surface of the discharge conveyor belt body, and the upper end face of the lower limit rod are on the same horizontal plane; the lower support plate is a cubic plate and the end faces of the lower support plate and the inner support body that are close to each other are vertically aligned.
[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, since the upper end face of the inner support body, the upper end face of the outer support body, the upper surface of the discharge conveyor belt body of the horizontal discharge conveyor belt, and the upper end face of the lower limit rod are on the same horizontal plane, and the lower support plate is a cubic plate with the lower support plate and the end faces of the inner support body that are close to each other vertically aligned, the lower end moves along the horizontal plane during the unqualified spring pushing process, which is beneficial to the unqualified spring pushing.
[0024] Optionally, an upper baffle is formed on the upper surface of the outer support body; the end face of the upper baffle near the discharge conveyor belt body is flush with the end face of the outer support body near the discharge conveyor belt body.
[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, the presence of the upper baffle can prevent the spring from exceeding the discharge conveyor belt body when it is pushed, and can also prevent the spring from accidentally tilting to the side of the outer support body.
[0026] In summary, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0027] 1. No manual intervention is required during loading and unloading, effectively improving testing efficiency.
[0028] 2. The unqualified springs are easy to unload, effectively classifying qualified and unqualified springs. Attached Figure Description

[0060] The working principle of a spring pressure testing device is as follows:
[0061] Initial state: The pressure test section is away from the bottom support assembly 30; during loading, the spring test sample is placed on the upper surface of the upper clamping base plate 541 and clamped by a pair of clamping rings 543. It is then intermittently conveyed by the horizontal conveyor belt 53 until the spring is directly above the bottom support assembly 30. Next, a pair of vertical drive cylinders 51 drive the moving bracket 52 to descend, so that the spring reaches the upper surface of the lower support plate 35 vertically. Then, the pair of clamping rings 543 move away from each other, so that the spring is placed on the upper surface of the lower support plate 35. Then, a pair of vertical drive cylinders 51 drive the moving bracket 52 to rise back to its original position. Then, the pressure test section moves horizontally to the bottom support assembly 30, and then performs a pressure test on the spring. Then, the pressure test section moves away from the bottom support assembly 30. If... If the spring passes the test, a pair of vertical drive cylinders 51 lower the moving bracket 52, and a pair of clamping rings 543 clamp the spring that has passed the test. Then, the pair of vertical drive cylinders 51 raise the moving bracket 52. If the spring fails the test, the lifting drive cylinder 34 raises the lower support plate 35 until the upper surfaces of the lower support plate 35 and the lower limit rod 33 are flush. Then, the pushing cylinder 61 moves the pushing plate 62 horizontally. The pushing plate 62 pushes the unqualified spring horizontally along the upper surface of the lower support plate 35 and the upper surface of the outer bracket body 7121 until it enters the discharge conveyor belt body 723. Finally, the discharge conveyor belt body 723 carries the unqualified spring to the next process. Then, according to the above principle, the loading and unloading mechanism 50 continues to load materials to the bottom support assembly 30.

Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of the present invention should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
