[0026] Example 1

[0027] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a mold machining allowance inspection device includes a mounting rod 1 for connecting to a machine tool spindle and a measuring part installed on the mounting rod 1, the measuring part includes a connecting rod 2 connected to the mounting rod 1 and a fixing nut 3 sleeved on the connecting rod 2, a coaxial spring 4 is installed on the connecting rod 2, a measuring rod 5 is installed at one end of the spring 4 away from the connecting rod 2, the spring 4 and the measuring rod 5 are coaxial and are both located in the fixing nut 3, the measuring rod 5 passes through the end of the fixing nut 3 and is slidably connected to the fixing nut 3, and a scale 6 is provided on the outer surface of the measuring rod 5 along its length direction, and the initial value of the scale 6 is flush with the end of the fixing nut 3.

[0028] Among them, a connecting hole 7 penetrating the mounting rod 1 is provided on the side of the mounting rod 1, and a plug hole 8 for inserting the end of the mounting rod 1 is provided on the connecting rod 2. The axes of the connecting rod 2 and the mounting rod 1 are perpendicular. A through hole 9 penetrating the connecting rod 2 is provided on the outer surface of the connecting rod 2. The through hole 9 is connected to the plug hole 8. A fixing bolt that can pass through the through hole 9 and the connecting hole 7 is installed on the connecting rod 2; after the end of the mounting rod 1 is inserted into the plug hole 8, the connecting rod 2 can be fixed to the mounting rod 1 by passing the fixing bolt through the through hole 9 and the connecting hole 7; (because the through hole 9 is to be shown in the figure, the fixing bolt is not shown in the figure. The fixing bolt is a combination of a bolt and a nut in this embodiment)

[0029] The end of the connecting rod 2 adjacent to the spring 4 is provided with a groove 11 for accommodating the spring 4, and the end of the measuring rod 5 adjacent to the spring 4 is located in the groove 11; the opening of the groove 11 can prevent the spring 4 from tilting when it is compressed and deformed; the setting of the groove 11 can also guide the movement of the measuring rod 5;

[0030] In order to facilitate the installation of the spring 4 and the measuring rod 5, the connecting rod 2, the spring 4 and the measuring rod 5 are not fixedly connected. However, in order to facilitate the installation, in order to prevent the spring 4 and the measuring rod 5 from slipping out of the outer end of the fixing nut 3, a coaxial limiting ring 12 is installed on the outer end of the fixing nut 3, and a coaxial abutting ring 13 is installed on the measuring rod 5.

[0032] The working principle is that when in use, first install the mounting rod 1 on the spindle, and then program according to the theoretical position. When the measuring rod 5 reaches the specified position, the contact of the measuring rod 5 contacts the workpiece.

[0036] Example 3

[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, the structure of this embodiment is roughly the same as that of embodiment 2. This embodiment is further optimized on the basis of embodiment 2.
