Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of anchor chain processing, and more specifically, to an end-limiting device for anchor chain processing. Background Technology
[0002] Anchor chains are specialized chains that connect anchors to the hull and transmit anchor holding force. During their production and processing, tensile testing is a necessary step to ensure stable performance. Tensile testing is used to ensure the strength and safety of anchor chains. Through tensile testing, key parameters such as tensile strength, yield point, breaking point, and elongation of anchor chains can be obtained. These parameters can evaluate the strength and durability of anchor chain materials, thereby ensuring the reliability and safety of anchor chains in actual use.
[0003] Currently, the tensile testing equipment used in existing technologies often performs tensile tests on only one end of the anchor chain. During the testing process, it is not possible to directly test both ends of any area of the anchor chain, which limits the test data and affects the accuracy of the measurement data.
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this application proposes an end-limiting device for anchor chain processing. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an end-limiting device for anchor chain processing to solve the problems in the prior art.
[0006] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0007] An end-limiting device for anchor chain processing includes a main body and an anchor chain body. The upper end of the main body has an adapter seat for clamping and limiting the end of the anchor chain body. One side of the adapter seat has a limiting seat for supporting the outward extension of the anchor chain body. Both sides of the adapter seat have protruding retainers. The retainer on one side of the adapter seat is used to fix the limiting seat. The lower end of the retainer on the other side of the adapter seat has a balance block for applying gravity to keep the adapter seat balanced. The lower end of the adapter seat also has a connecting plate located on one side of the anchor chain body at the fixed end. The inner side of the connecting plate has a first clamp for clamping one side of the anchor chain body at the fixed end. One side of the lower end of the adapter seat also has a second clamp for clamping the outer side of an adjacent section of the anchor chain body at the fixed end. The lower end of the adapter seat has a top seat for pressing against the inner surface of the fixed end of the anchor chain body. The top seat can arbitrarily press against the inner surface of one section of the anchor chain body.
[0008] Furthermore, a protruding boss is provided on the outer side of the second jacket, and elastic telescopic columns are provided on the inner sides of both ends of the connecting plate for connecting with the boss and applying support force to the second jacket and the anchor chain body it holds. The elastic telescopic columns are also used to drive the second jacket to automatically adapt to the spacing between adjacent anchor chain bodies.
[0009] Furthermore, the top seat has side plates on both outer sides for use with the adapter seat, and the bottom of the top seat has a positioning plate for abutting against the upper surface of the anchor chain body in the lateral state.
[0010] Furthermore, the lower end of the top seat is provided with a spring post for automatically pressing down the positioning plate, and the lower end of the top seat is also provided with a positioning plate placed on the upper end of the crossbar.
[0011] Furthermore, the top seat has protruding bosses at both ends, and the side plate has a protruding hook plate on one side of its upper end.
[0012] Furthermore, the adapter seat is internally provided with a bidirectional transmission screw for driving adjacent side plates to move in opposite directions simultaneously, and the lower end of the adapter seat is internally provided with a sliding groove for mounting a hook plate.
[0013] Furthermore, a positioning post for cooperating with the boss is provided on the inner side of the lower end of the side plate, and a positioning groove for engaging the positioning post is provided on the inner side of the boss.
[0014] Furthermore, protruding rotating blocks are provided at both ends and the middle position of the bidirectional transmission screw. The rotating block on the outer side of the middle position of the bidirectional transmission screw is used to separate the two reverse threads at both ends of the bidirectional transmission screw.
[0015] Furthermore, the adapter has limiting grooves inside both ends for rotating connection of the positioning groove, and the limiting grooves are connected to the sliding groove.
[0016] Furthermore, the adapter has limiting grooves inside both ends for rotating connection of the positioning groove, and the limiting grooves are connected to the sliding groove.
[0017] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0018] 1. This invention allows the top seat to be inserted into one end of the anchor chain body. The spring pin can then drive the positioning plate to squeeze and limit the end of the other anchor chain body. Furthermore, the bidirectional transmission screw drives the adjacent side plates to move inward simultaneously, so that the positioning pin slides into the positioning groove to form a limit. The operation is simple and convenient, and the two ends of the middle area of the anchor chain body can be clamped and fixed in this way. After production, different areas of the anchor chain body can be selected for testing, which effectively improves the accuracy of the test data and ensures the performance of subsequent use.
[0019] 2. The present invention, by fitting a first sleeve on one side of the anchor chain body after it has been fixed, uses an elastic telescopic column to drive a second sleeve to be fitted on both sides of the anchor chain body in the transverse state to form a clamping, limiting and supporting effect. At this time, it can effectively prevent the part of the anchor chain body that is not limited from shaking around during the inspection operation, ensuring the normal operation and stability of the inspection operation, and making it easier for the staff to operate and use.
[0020] 3. By setting retainers at both ends of the adapter, the limiting seat and the balance block can be fixed on both sides respectively. At this time, the anchor chain body that is not limited can be placed directly on the upper end of the limiting seat facing outward. Thus, the movable end can be conveniently stored during the stretching operation for actual operation and use, and the balance block is used to maintain the balance and avoid tilting.

[0042] It is understood that the present invention utilizes a detachable clamping mechanism and its components to limit the two ends of any section of the anchor chain body 2 on the outside of the device, and then assembles it inside the device. In this way, any area of the product can be selected for testing, improving the accuracy of data detection. At the same time, the outwardly extending part of the anchor chain body 2 can be automatically limited and stored during the testing process to prevent it from shaking and affecting the normal testing operation.
[0043] The working principle of this invention is as follows:
[0044] This invention, by inserting the top seat 13, located at the lower end of the adapter 3, into one end of the anchor chain body 2, allows the spring post 15 at the bottom of the top seat 13 to drive the positioning plate 14 to squeeze and limit the end of another section of the anchor chain body 2 inside the anchor chain body 2. Furthermore, by utilizing the bidirectional transmission screw 17 located inside the upper end of the adapter 3, it can engage with the hook plate 19 at the upper end of the side plate 12 during rotation, causing the adjacent side plate 12 to move inward simultaneously. This allows the positioning post 20 located on the lower inner side of the side plate 12 to slide into the positioning grooves 21 at both ends of the top seat 13 to form a limit. The operation is simple and convenient, allowing the two ends of the middle area of the anchor chain body 2 to be clamped and fixed. After production, different areas of the anchor chain body 2 can be selected for testing, effectively improving the accuracy of the test data to ensure subsequent performance.
[0045] This invention, by fitting a first sleeve 8 onto one side of the anchor chain body 2 after it has been fixed, utilizes the elastic telescopic columns 11 located on the inner sides of both ends of the connecting plate 7 to drive the second sleeve 9 to be fitted onto both sides of the anchor chain body 2 that is not restricted in the lateral state, forming a clamping, limiting, and supporting effect. Using its supporting force, the unrestricted anchor chain body 2 can be fixed to one side of the already restricted anchor chain body 2, forming a stable rest. At this time, it can effectively prevent the unrestricted part of the anchor chain body 2 from shaking around during the inspection operation, ensuring the normal operation and stability of the inspection operation, and facilitating the operation and use of the staff.
[0046] By setting retainers 5 at both ends of the adapter 3, the present invention can fix the limiting seat 4 and the balance block 6 on both sides of the upper position of the adapter 3. At this time, the outward-extending and unrestricted anchor chain body 2 can be placed directly on the upper end of the limiting seat 4 facing outward. Thus, the movable end can be conveniently stored during the stretching operation, which is convenient for actual operation and use. At the same time, the balance block 6 can be used to apply gravity to keep the top seat 13 in a balanced state and avoid tilting.
