DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] The present invention is further described in conjunction with the following examples.

[0028] Depend on Figures 1 to 8 It can be seen that the adaptable resistance strain gauge described in this embodiment includes a circular base 1 and a circular housing 2 rotatably connected to the circular base 1; the circular housing 2 is fixed with a circular test plate 3; the circular base 1, the circular housing 2 and the circular test plate 3 are arranged concentrically; the circular test plate 3 is arranged above the base;

[0029] A longitudinal sensitive grid 4 and a transverse sensitive grid 5 are provided on the top of the circular test plate 3; the longitudinal sensitive grid 4 and the transverse sensitive grid 5 are arranged vertically;

[0030] The circular test plate 3 is penetrated by a test hole 31; the top of the circular base 1 is provided with a receiving groove 11; the longitudinal sensitive grid 4 and the transverse sensitive grid 5 are both provided with a floating pin 61; the floating pin 61 passes through the test hole 31 and is arranged in the receiving groove 11; the bottom of the circular test plate 3 is provided with a first adhesive layer 7.

[0031] Specifically, when the highly adaptable resistive strain gauge described in this embodiment is in use, the floating pin 61 passes through the test hole 31 and is disposed in the accommodating groove 11. At this time, there is a gap between the first adhesive layer 7 and the top surface of the circular base 1, and the first adhesive layer 7 does not contact the circular base 1.

[0032] First, the circular base 1 is fixed on the object to be tested. When the surface of the object to be tested is deformed, the circular base 1 transmits the strain force to the longitudinal sensitive grid 4 and the transverse sensitive grid 5 through the cooperation of the accommodating groove 11 and the floating pin 61. The longitudinal sensitive grid 4 and the transverse sensitive grid 5 respectively obtain the vertical component and the horizontal component of the strain force. According to the magnitude of the vertical component and the magnitude of the horizontal component, the actual direction of the strain force can be calculated.

[0033] Then the circular shell 2 is moved upward, so that the circular test plate 3, the longitudinal sensitive grid 4, the transverse sensitive grid 5, the first adhesive layer 7 and the floating pin 61 are all moved upward, so that the floating pin 61 withdraws from the accommodating groove 11; then the circular shell 2 is rotated according to the actual direction of the strain force, so that the longitudinal sensitive grid 4 is parallel to the direction of the strain force, or the transverse sensitive grid 5 is parallel to the direction of the strain force, and then the circular shell 2 is moved downward. At this time, the floating pin 61 abuts against the top surface of the circular base 1, that is, the floating pin 61 can be retracted into the longitudinal sensitive grid 4 and the transverse sensitive grid 5, so that the first adhesive layer 7 contacts the circular base 1, and the circular base 1 and the circular test plate 3 are firmly connected through the first adhesive layer 7, so that the strain force caused by the deformation of the surface of the object to be tested can be accurately transmitted to the circular test plate 3 through the circular base 1. At this time, the strain of the object to be tested can be measured through the sensitive grid parallel to the direction of the strain force.

[0034] This embodiment can accurately infer the force direction by obtaining strain data in the horizontal and vertical directions during the initial measurement process, and further adjust the installation direction of the strain gauge so that the measurement direction of one of the sensitive grids is consistent with the direction of the actual strain amount, thereby reducing the error caused by angle mismatch. This design can not only avoid the directional limitation of traditional strain gauges, but also improve the measurement accuracy, ensuring high accuracy even in a dynamically changing environment.

[0035] In the embodiment of the invention, a resistance strain gauge with strong adaptability is provided with a rotation groove 12 at the center of the top of the circular base 1; a rotation column 21 is provided at the center of the bottom of the circular housing 2; the rotation column 21 passes through the circular test plate 3 and is rotationally connected to the rotation groove 12. Specifically, the above arrangement enables the circular housing 2 to rotate stably.

[0036] In the embodiment of the invention, a highly adaptable resistance strain gauge is provided with a longitudinal lead 41 through the circular housing 2; the longitudinal lead 41 is connected to the longitudinal sensitive grid 4. The above arrangement facilitates receiving the sensing data of the longitudinal sensitive grid 4, and can effectively export the sensing data of the longitudinal sensitive grid 4 to the circular housing 2.

[0037] In the embodiment of the invention, a highly adaptable resistance strain gauge is provided with a transverse lead 51 through the circular housing 2, and the transverse lead 51 is connected to the transverse sensitive grid 5. The above arrangement facilitates receiving the sensing data of the transverse sensitive grid 5, and can effectively export the sensing data of the transverse sensitive grid 5 to the circular housing 2.

[0038] In the embodiment of the invention, a highly adaptable resistance strain gauge is provided with a floating groove 62 at the bottom of the longitudinal sensitive grid 4 and the bottom of the transverse sensitive grid 5; the floating pin 61 is telescopically arranged in the floating groove 62. In the embodiment of the invention, a highly adaptable resistance strain gauge is provided with a floating spring 63 between the inner wall of the floating groove 62 and the top of the floating pin 61.

[0039] Specifically, through the above-mentioned arrangement, when in use, due to the action of the floating spring 63, the bottom of the floating pin 61 extends out of the floating groove 62, passes through the test hole 31 and is set in the accommodating groove 11. At this time, there is a gap between the first adhesive layer 7 and the top surface of the circular base 1, and the first adhesive layer 7 does not contact the circular base 1.

[0040] When the floating pin 61 abuts against the top surface of the circular base 1, the circular shell 2 moves downward, allowing the floating pin 61 to retract into the floating groove 62, so that the first adhesive layer 7 contacts the circular base 1, and the circular base 1 and the circular test plate 3 are firmly connected through the first adhesive layer 7.

[0041] In the embodiment of the invention, a resistive strain gauge with strong adaptability is provided with a handle 32 on the side wall of the circular test plate 3. The above arrangement facilitates the movement and rotation of the circular housing 2. A calibration block 13 is provided on the side wall of the circular base 1. The calibration block 13 and the handle 32 are provided to facilitate the user to observe the rotation angle of the circular housing 2.

[0042] In the embodiment of the invention, a highly adaptable resistance strain gauge is provided with a second adhesive layer 8 at the bottom of the circular base 1. The above arrangement facilitates a stable connection between the circular base 1 and the object to be measured.

[0043] In the embodiment of the invention, the resistive strain gauge with strong adaptability is described, wherein the longitudinal sensitive grid 4 and the transverse sensitive grid 5 each include a long connecting rod 91 and a short connecting rod 92 which are alternately connected in sequence; and a floating pin 61 is provided in the middle of the short connecting rod 92. Specifically, through the above arrangement, the strain force generated by the deformation of the measured object can be effectively transmitted to the longitudinal sensitive grid 4 and the transverse sensitive grid 5 during the initial measurement.

[0044] In the embodiment of the invention, the first adhesive layer 7 is provided with a through hole 71, and the floating pin 61 is passed through the through hole 71. Specifically, the area of ​​the first adhesive layer 7 can be increased as much as possible through the above arrangement, thereby enhancing the stability of the connection between the circular base 1 and the circular test plate 3.

[0045] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, rather than to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solution of the present invention can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
