[0034] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 A cross-section of an atmosphere test chamber provided in one embodiment of the present invention Figure 1 . Figure 2 A cross-section of an atmosphere test chamber provided in one embodiment of the present invention Figure 2An embodiment of the present invention provides an atmosphere environment test chamber, comprising a chamber 100, a pull rod 210, a clamp 220 and an extensometer 230; the chamber 100 comprises a main body 110, a first box cover 120 and a second box cover 130, the main body 110 is provided with a test cavity 111 and an operation hole 112 which are interconnected, one side of the test cavity 111 has an opening, the test cavity 111 is used to be filled with a gas medium, and the second box cover 130 is provided with an installation cavity 131; the chamber 100 has a first state and a second state, when the chamber 100 is in the first state, the first box cover 120 is connected to the main body 110 to cover the opening; when the chamber 100 is in the second state, the second box cover 130 is connected to the main body 110 to cover the opening, and the installation cavity 131 is used to connect with the test cavity 111 One end of the pull rod 210 is used to be connected to the tensile member, and the other end of the pull rod 210 is passed through the operating hole 112 and extends into the test cavity 111. The pull rod 210 is used to move relative to the cabin body 100 along the extension direction of the operating hole 112 under the drive of the tensile member; the clamp 220 is accommodated in the test cavity 111, and the clamp 220 includes a first connecting member 221 and a second connecting member 222. The first connecting member 221 is connected to the main body 110, and the second connecting member 222 is connected to the pull rod 210. The first connecting member 221 and the second connecting member 222 are used to connect the two ends of the sample 600; the extensometer 230 is connected to the second box cover 130, and the extensometer 230 is partially accommodated in the installation cavity 131. The extensometer 230 is used to be connected to the sample 600 when the cabin body 100 is in the second state.
[0035] Specifically, in this application, the first connecting member 221 and the second connecting member 222 are connected to the sample 600, and the tensile member drives the second connecting member 222 to move along the extension direction of the operation hole 112 through the pull rod 210, so that the sample 600 can be stretched. Wherein, the sample 600 is metal.
[0036] When the cabin 100 is in the first state, Figure 2 For example, the first cover 120 is connected to the main body 110 to seal the test field, so that the sample 600 can be subjected to the tensile test in a full atmosphere environment. Figure 1 For example, the second cover 130 is connected to the main body 110 to seal the test site. Since the second cover 130 has a mounting cavity 131, it is convenient to install the extensometer 230 and measure the plane strain fracture toughness K of the sample 600. IC The value of , that is, the side-positioned compact design is adopted, which greatly reduces the size of the atmosphere environment test chamber, thereby greatly shortening the time for the temperature control, pressure maintenance and other parameter indicators in the test cavity 111 to reach a stable state, and thus can adapt to the tensile test and fracture test of the sample 600 under different temperature and pressure environments, thereby improving the adaptability of the atmosphere environment test chamber and saving costs.
[0037] It should be noted that the pull rod 210 is sealed to the operating hole 112, so that the test chamber 111 can be filled with gas for testing. In this embodiment, the gas medium is described as hydrogen, but it is not limited to this. It can also be nitrogen, natural gas, etc.
[0038] Furthermore, the atmosphere environment test chamber also includes a gas medium conveying component 240. The main body 110 is provided with a second gas supply hole 540 connected to the test chamber 111. The gas medium conveying component 240 inputs hydrogen medium into the test chamber 111 through the second gas supply hole 540, so that the sample 600 can be subjected to tensile tests and fracture tests at different gas pressures.
[0039] See Figure 1 In one embodiment, the auxiliary box cover includes a connecting plate 132 and a protrusion 133 that are connected to each other. The connecting plate 132 is detachably connected to the main body 110. The protrusion 133 protrudes relative to the connecting plate 132 toward the side away from the main body 110. The installation cavity 131 is set on the protrusion 133, thereby further reducing the volume of the atmosphere environment test chamber, greatly shortening the time for the temperature control, pressure maintenance and other parameter indicators in the test chamber 111 to reach a stable state, and improving the test work efficiency.
[0040] See Figure 1 In one embodiment, the atmosphere environment test chamber further includes a heating component 300, which includes a heating coil 310 and a power supply. The heating coil 310 is disposed in the test cavity 111, and a first channel 320 and a second channel 330 are provided on the main body 110. The two ends of the heating coil 310 are respectively connected to the power supply located outside the main body 110 through the first channel 320 and the second channel 330 for heating.
[0041] Specifically, in the present application, a heating coil 310 is provided in the test chamber 111 , and the heating coil 310 is connected to an external power source to generate heat, thereby achieving rapid and uniform heating in the test chamber 111 and improving test efficiency.
[0042] See Figure 1 To accelerate the material's performance degradation in an atmospheric environment and thus shorten experimental time, in one embodiment, a heating coil 310 is spirally wound along the extension direction of the operating hole 112. The heating coil 310 is then placed over the specimen 600. This rapidly heats the surface of the specimen 600 through the skin effect, resolving the issues of slow heating speed, long heating time, and uneven temperature in traditional experiments using resistance wire heating. Furthermore, for workpieces operating in high-temperature atmospheric environments, this system can accurately simulate the working conditions and realistically replicate the actual working conditions of the raw material during the process of forming.
[0043] See Figure 1 In one embodiment, a delivery hole is constructed on the heating coil 310, and the atmosphere environment test chamber also includes a cooling generator, which is located outside the main body 110. The cooling generator is connected to the heating coil 310 through a first channel 320 and a second channel 330. The cooling generator is used to deliver cooling medium to the delivery hole to achieve cooling of the atmosphere environment test chamber. Compared with the additional setting of the cooling component structure, the structure is simplified and the cost is reduced.
[0044] participate Figure 3 , Figure 3 A cross-section of an atmosphere test chamber provided in one embodiment of the present invention Figure 3 In one embodiment, the atmosphere environment test chamber also includes a temperature control component 400, which includes a temperature control generator and a temperature control tube 410. The temperature control tube 410 is used to be wound around the sample 600, and a temperature control channel is constructed in the temperature control tube 410. A third channel and a fourth channel are provided on the main body 110. The temperature control channel is connected to the temperature control generator located outside the main body 110 through the third channel and the fourth channel respectively. The temperature control generator is used to alternately transport cold medium and hot medium to the temperature control channel, so that the heat in the test cavity 111 can be cyclically and alternately taken away, meeting the test function requirements of cyclic and reciprocating temperature control, and simulating the sample 600 to form a stable service environment, thereby providing a stable and repeatable test environment guarantee for the test reproduction material service environment and the in-situ test of the various mechanical and mechanical properties of the material. Among them, the temperature control tube 410 is spirally wrapped and sleeved on the sample 600.
[0045] Furthermore, the third channel overlaps with the first channel 320 , and the fourth channel overlaps with the second channel 330 , thereby reducing the number of channels provided on the main body 110 .
[0046] participate Figure 3 In one embodiment, the two ends of the temperature control tube 410 respectively have an inlet 411 and an outlet 412 connected to the temperature control channel. There are two temperature control tubes 410. The outlet 412 of one of the two temperature control tubes 410 and the inlet 411 of the other are located on the same side, and the outlet 412 of the other of the two temperature control tubes 410 and the inlet 411 of one are located on the same side.
[0047] Specifically, the temperature control generator is used to alternately deliver cold medium and hot medium to the inlet 411 of the temperature control tube 410, and the cold medium and hot medium flow back to the temperature control generator through the outlet 412. By locating the inlets 411 and outlets 412 of the two temperature control tubes 410 on opposite sides, the temperature uniformity within the test chamber 111 can be improved, thereby improving the accuracy of the test results.
[0048] See Figure 4 , Figure 4A cross-section of an atmosphere test chamber provided in one embodiment of the present invention Figure 4 In one embodiment, the atmosphere environment test chamber further includes a pressure balance assembly 500 , which is connected to the pull rod 210 . The pressure balance assembly 500 is used to apply a force to the pull rod 210 so that the force applied by the tensile member to the pull rod 210 in the extension direction of the operating hole 112 is the same as the force applied by the pull rod 210 to the specimen 600 .
[0049] Specifically, in the present application, the pull rod 210 is partially located in the test chamber 111. Since the test chamber 111 is filled with hydrogen medium, the pull rod 210 will be subjected to the force of the air pressure in the test chamber. The pressure balance component 500 applies a force to the pull rod 210 to offset the force of the air pressure in the test chamber 111 on the pull rod 210, so that the pull rod 210 is subjected to force balance in a static state. When the component pulls the pull rod 210, the force applied by the tensile component on the pull rod 210 is equal to the force applied by the pull rod 210 on the sample 600, that is, no additional load will be added to the sample 600 under test, which can prevent the systematic error caused by the imbalance of pressure inside and outside the atmosphere test chamber, thereby improving the accuracy of testing the performance of the sample 600.
[0050] See Figure 4 In one embodiment, the pressure balancing assembly 500 includes a piston sleeve 510, the main body 110 includes a main tank cover 140, the main tank cover 140 is used to connect with the first tank cover 120 or the second tank cover 130, the operation hole 112 is provided on the main tank cover 140, the main tank cover 140 is provided with a matching cavity 141 communicating with the operation hole 112, the pull rod 210 is partially passed through the matching cavity 141, the piston sleeve 510 is accommodated in the matching cavity 141, the piston sleeve 510 is sleeved on the pull rod 210, and the piston sleeve 510 is accommodated in the matching cavity 141. It also abuts against the wall of the mating cavity 141 to separate the mating cavity 141 into a first cavity 145 and a second cavity 146. The second cavity 146 is connected to the outside and is located on the side of the piston sleeve 510 close to the fixture 220. In the extension direction of the operating hole 112, the product of the area difference between the end of the pull rod 210 close to the sample 600 and the sample 600 and the air pressure in the test cavity 111 is equal to the product of the area of the side of the piston sleeve 510 away from the fixture 220 in the extension direction of the operating hole 112 and the air pressure in the first cavity 145.
[0051] Specifically, in the extension direction of the operating hole 112, the radial dimensions of the pull rod 210 are the same, and the area of the end of the pull rod 210 close to the second connecting member 222 is larger than the area of the sample 600. The test chamber 111 is filled with hydrogen medium, and there is a certain air pressure in the test chamber 111, which will apply a first thrust F1 to the pull rod 210 away from the sample 600, so that the tension applied to the sample 600 is different from the force applied to the pull rod 210 by the tensile member. In the present application, the piston sleeve 510 is sleeved on the pull rod 210, so that in the extension direction of the operating hole 112, the side of the piston sleeve 510 facing away from the clamp 220 forms an area difference with the pull rod 210, and then the air pressure in the second cavity 146 applies a second thrust F2 toward the clamp 220 to the piston sleeve 510, that is, a second thrust F2 toward the clamp 220 is applied to the pull rod 210. When the first thrust F1 and the second thrust F2 are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, they can be offset and balanced, so that the tension applied to the sample 600 is the same as the force applied to the pull rod 210 by the tensile member, thereby preventing systematic errors caused by pressure imbalance inside and outside the atmosphere test chamber and improving the accuracy of the test results.
[0052] The main tank cover 140 is provided with an auxiliary hole 113 communicating with the second cavity 146 to communicate with the outside, thereby avoiding applying a force toward the first cavity 145 to the piston sleeve 510 .
[0053] It should be noted that the distance the pull rod 210 moves in the operating hole 112 is relatively small, so the effect on the change of the air pressure in the second cavity 146 is relatively small and can be ignored.
[0054] It should be noted that, in the process of the pull rod 210 moving along the extension direction of the operating hole 112, there is a downward friction force between the pull rod 210 and the hole wall of the operating hole 112, and there is a friction force between the piston sleeve 510 and the cavity wall of the mating cavity 141. The force applied to the pull rod 210 by the tensile member described in this embodiment is actually the actual force obtained by deducting the friction force exerted on the pull rod 210 from the theoretical force applied by the tensile member to the pull rod 210.
[0055] See Figure 4 In one embodiment, the pressure balancing assembly 500 further includes a gas delivery member 520. The main box cover 140 is provided with a first gas delivery hole 530 connected to the first cavity 145. The gas delivery member 520 is used to introduce gas into the first cavity 145 through the first gas delivery hole 530 to adjust the gas pressure in the first cavity 145.
[0056] Specifically, after installing the specimen 600, the first connector 221 needs to be connected to the pull rod 210. Due to the varying sizes of the specimens 600, the pull rod 210 will move in the direction of the operating hole 112, causing the position of the piston sleeve 510 relative to the mating cavity 141 to change, thereby changing the volume of the first cavity 145. Gas is introduced into the first cavity 145 through the first gas delivery hole 530 via the gas delivery member 520, thereby adjusting the air pressure within the first cavity 145 to ensure that the second thrust F2 is equal to the first thrust F1. This balances the pressure on both ends of the pull rod 210, improving the adaptability and reliability of the atmosphere test chamber.
[0057] See Figure 4 In one embodiment, in the extension direction of the operating hole 112, the area difference between the end of the pull rod 210 close to the sample 600 and the sample 600 is equal to the area of the side of the piston sleeve 510 away from the clamp 220. Therefore, it is only necessary to ensure that the air pressure in the first cavity 145 is equal to the air pressure in the test cavity 111, which simplifies the steps and improves reliability.
[0058] Furthermore, the gas delivery component 520 is constructed as a gas medium delivery component 240, that is, gas is delivered to the test chamber 111 and the first cavity 145 through the gas delivery component 520, thereby ensuring that the air pressure in the first cavity 145 is the same as that in the test chamber 111, avoiding the situation where the accuracy of the test results is affected by errors in the air pressure measurement value, and improving the reliability of the atmosphere environment test chamber.
[0059] See Figure 4 In one embodiment, the main case cover 140 includes an end cover 143 and a connecting tube 144. The end cover 143 is connected to the first case cover 120 or the second case cover 130. The operation hole 112 is provided on the end cover 143. The connecting tube 144 is connected to the end cover 143. The mating cavity 141 is provided on the connecting tube 144, and the connecting tube 144 is provided with a mating hole 142 that communicates with the mating cavity 141. The pull rod 210 passes through the operation hole 112, passes through the mating cavity 141, and extends outside the main body 110 through the mating hole 142, thereby connecting to a tensile member outside the main body 110. The pull rod 210 is sealed with the wall of the mating hole 142.
[0060] Furthermore, a protrusion is provided on one side of the end cover 143 facing the connecting tube 144 . The protrusion is received in the mating cavity 141 and connected to the cavity wall of the mating cavity 141 to ensure connection stability.
[0061] See Figure 5 , Figure 5A schematic diagram of an atmospheric environment test chamber according to one embodiment of the present invention is shown. In one embodiment, the main body 110 further includes an observation window 170 , which is made of high-pressure, high-strength glass. This facilitates observation of the specimen 600 within the test chamber 111 during loading, stress testing, and environmental testing.
[0062] Furthermore, the main body 110 also includes a third box cover 150 and a fourth box cover 160. One side of the third box cover 150 is connected to the fourth box cover 160, and the other side is connected to the main box cover 140. The third box cover 150 is arranged opposite to the first box cover 120 or the second box cover 130. There are two observation windows 170, which are connected to the main box cover 140, the third box cover 150 and the fourth box cover 160 to enclose a sample 600 cavity, and the two observation windows 170 are located on opposite sides to facilitate observation of the sample 600.
