[0002] As a key permanent magnet material, sintered NdFeB has been widely used in high-performance motors, generators, sensors and other fields due to its excellent magnetic properties, such as high remanence, high coercivity and high magnetic energy product. In the production process of sintered NdFeB, hardness is a crucial parameter, which directly affects the application scenario and performance of the final product. Therefore, accurate hardness testing of sintered NdFeB is of great significance to ensure product quality.

[0003] Existing sintered NdFeB hardness testing devices have some limitations in practical applications. On the one hand, these devices can usually only apply pressure to the material in a specific direction for single-point testing, which means that to fully evaluate the performance of the material, it is necessary to adjust its angle or position multiple times, which not only increases the complexity of the operation, but also increases the time cost. On the other hand, some testing devices lack built-in appearance inspection functions. After completing the hardness test, additional equipment and steps are required for appearance inspection, which undoubtedly increases the production cost and the complexity of the testing process.

The two clamping parts 7 are used to adapt and clamp NdFeB blanks 100 of different shapes. The clamping part 7 includes a mounting block 71, a first semicircular block 72, a second semicircular block 73 and a buffer pad 74. The mounting block 71 is fixed to the opposite side of the fixed block 42 and the sliding block. The mounting block 71 is rotatably mounted on the first semicircular block 72 through two semicircular grooves. The first semicircular block 72 is also provided with two semicircular grooves. The second semicircular block 73 is rotatably mounted in the semicircular groove of the first semicircular block 72 in a group of two. A buffer pad 74 is provided on the clamping surface of the second semicircular block 73; a hardness detection mechanism 8 is provided with four groups and circumferentially arranged on the four sides of the mounting frame 3 The hardness detection mechanism 8 includes: a sliding frame 81, which is slidably mounted inside the frame of the mounting frame 3; a detection switching disk 82, which is rotatably arranged on the side of the sliding frame 81 close to the NdFeB blank 100; a mounting cylinder 821, which is provided with a plurality of and circumferentially fixed on the side wall of the detection switching disk 82, and there is a certain interval between adjacent mounting cylinders 821; an extrusion contact 822, which is provided with a variety of specifications and is circumferentially arranged on the detection switching disk 82 through the mounting cylinder 821; a pressure sensor 823, which is arranged between the mounting cylinder 821 and the extrusion contact 822; a hydraulic cylinder 83, the number of which is the same as that of the sliding frame 81 and is respectively fixed on the side walls of the four sides of the mounting frame 3, and the telescopic rod of the hydraulic cylinder 83 passes through the mounting frame 3 After that, it is connected to the corresponding sliding frame 81; the driving member 9 is arranged on the sliding frame 81, and the driving member 9 is used to drive the detection switching disk 82 to switch the extrusion contacts 822 of different specifications. After the clamping member 7 stably clamps the NdFeB billet 100 to be detected, according to the current composition of the sintered NdFeB billet 100, the detection switching disk 82 is driven by the driving member 9 to switch the appropriate extrusion contact 822, and then the sliding frame 81 is synchronously moved inward by multiple hydraulic cylinders 83 circumferentially of the mounting frame 3, and synchronously squeezed on the NdFeB billet 100 from multiple directions, and the hydraulic cylinder 83 can be controlled to output different pressures to detect the hardness of the NdFeB billet 100, so as to evaluate whether the quality of the NdFeB billet 100 meets the standards.

[0035] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the extrusion end of the extrusion contact 822 is a pressure head of various shapes (circular or conical), and the extrusion contact 822 is detachably installed in the installation tube 821. The extrusion contact 822 can be replaced with different materials (diamond or alloy) according to the hardness test of the current NdFeB blank 100, so that the detection device can adapt to the detection of NdFeB blanks 100 with different hardnesses; microscopes 824 are installed between adjacent extrusion contacts 822 on the detection switching disk 82, and the extrusion contacts 822 and the microscopes 824 are evenly spaced. The microscope 824 is used to observe the size of the surface indentation of the NdFeB blank 100 after being compressed, so as to determine the hardness of the NdFeB blank 100. A parameter display screen 84 is installed on the bottom plate 1, and the parameter display screen 84 is used to display various parameters of the current NdFeB blank 100 after hardness testing.

[0036] like Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the driving member 9 includes: a worm wheel 91, which is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft of the detection switching disk 82; a first motor 92, which is fixedly installed on the sliding frame 81; and a worm 93, which is installed on the output shaft of the first motor 92 through a coupling 94. The worm wheel 91 and the worm 93 are meshed with each other. The first motor 92 drives the worm 93 to rotate through the coupling 94. The rotating worm 93 meshes with the worm wheel 91 and drives the detection switching disk 82 to rotate, so that the extrusion contact 822 on the detection switching disk 82 can be flexibly switched. At the same time, the worm wheel 91 is self-locked by the worm 93, so that the extrusion contact 822 with the detection angle adjusted cannot be easily rotated, thereby improving the stability of the device during hardness detection.

[0037] like Figure 6 As shown, a spline block 101 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft of the detection switching disk 82, and a circle of slots are arranged on the circumferential side wall of the spline block 101. The slots of the spline block 101 are pointed cone slots from outside to inside. An electric push rod 102 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the sliding frame 81, and a block 103 is installed on the telescopic rod of the electric push rod 102. The block 103 is a wedge-shaped block adapted to the slot of the spline block 101. The electric push rod 102 is inserted into the slot of the spline block 101 through the block 103, thereby locking the detection switching disk 82, thereby further improving the stability of the extruded contact 822 or the microscope 824 on the detection switching disk 82 after rotation switching.

[0038] When using the present device to perform hardness testing on sintered NdFeB blank 100, the operator first places the NdFeB blank 100 to be tested on the support plate 5, and then drives the movable block 6 on the guide seat 4 toward the fixed block 42 by twisting the adjusting screw 61, adjusting the screw 61 thread to fit the threaded seat 41, so that the two clamps 7 gradually approach the NdFeB blank 100. As the distance between the clamps 7 decreases, the first semicircular block 72 and the second semicircular block 73 will automatically adjust the angle according to the shape of the NdFeB blank 100, and fit the outer wall of the NdFeB blank 100 through the buffer pad 74 on the second semicircular block 73, and finally tightly wrap and limit the NdFeB blank 100, ensuring that the NdFeB blank 100 is firmly clamped while maximizing the limit In order to reduce the potential damage to the NdFeB blank 100, after the NdFeB blank 100 is stably limited by the clamping members 7 at two places, the mounting frame 3 is first driven to rise and fall by the cylinder 2, so that the hardness detection mechanism 8 on the mounting frame 3 is adjusted to a detection height suitable for the current NdFeB blank 100, and then the extrusion contact 822 of appropriate specifications and materials is selected according to the composition and shape size of the NdFeB blank 100, and the required extrusion contact 822 is stably installed inside the mounting cylinder 821 of the detection switching disk 82, and then the first motor 92 is activated, and the first motor 92 drives the worm 93 to rotate through the coupling 94, and the rotating worm 93 drives the detection switching disk 82 to rotate and switch different extrusion contacts 822 through the meshing worm wheel 91. When the detection switching disk 82 After switching to the appropriate extrusion contact 822, the first motor 92 is turned off and the electric push rod 102 is enabled at the same time. The electric push rod 102 drives the card block 103 to be inserted into the card slot on the side wall of the current spline block 101 through the telescopic rod, so that the card block 103 is locked on the spline block 101, and the self-locking function between the worm 93 and the worm wheel 91 is cooperated to prevent the selected extrusion contact 822 from accidentally rotating during operation. Then, the four hydraulic cylinders 83 on the installation frame 3 are synchronously enabled. The hydraulic cylinders 83 at various locations act synchronously and push the corresponding connecting frame toward the NdFeB blank 100 through the telescopic rod, so that the extrusion contact 822 on the detection switching disk 82 applies pressure to the NdFeB blank 100 from four directions at the same time. During this period, the pressure sensor in each installation cylinder 821 The sensor 823 is used to monitor the pressure value of the extrusion contact 822 on the NdFeB blank 100, and transmit the data to the parameter display screen 84, so that the operator can intuitively monitor the entire detection process of the NdFeB blank 100, and accurately control the hydraulic cylinder 83 to apply a suitable test pressure to the NdFeB blank 100. After the pressure is applied, the worm 93 is driven by the first motor 92 to rotate the meshing worm gear 91 again, so that the detection switching disk 82 switches to the nearest microscope 824, and the hydraulic cylinder 83 is used to adjust the distance between the microscope 824 and the NdFeB blank 100. The microscope 824 can be used to carefully observe the size of the indentation on the surface of the NdFeB blank 100 after the pressure is applied, so as to determine the hardness value of the NdFeB blank 100.At the same time, the microscopic observation mirror 824 can be used to observe the cracks and other minor defects that may appear on the surface of the NdFeB blank 100, so as to more accurately judge the performance of the NdFeB blank 100.

[0039] Embodiment 2: Based on embodiment 1, Figure 1 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, a flaw detector 11 is provided on one side of the inner wall of the mounting frame 3, and the flaw detector 11 is used to detect whether there are defects such as cracks inside the NdFeB blank 100 before and after the hardness test. The flaw detector 11 includes: an electric slide rail 111, which is fixedly connected to one side of the inner wall of the mounting frame 3; a slider 112, which is slidably mounted on the electric slide rail 111; a probe 113, which is mounted on the slider 112, and the probe 113 is used to emit ultrasonic waves for detection to the NdFeB blank 100; an ultrasonic signal display 114, which is mounted on the bottom plate 1, and the ultrasonic signal display 114 is electrically connected to the probe 113 through a wire 115, and the ultrasonic signal display 114 is used to intuitively display the ultrasonic image signal generated when the probe 113 detects the NdFeB blank 100, so that the operator can judge whether there are defects inside the NdFeB blank 100 and the location of the defects according to the image or data.

[0040] like Figure 7 and Fig. 9 As shown, a circular groove is provided inside the support plate 5, and a rotating member 12 is provided in the circular groove of the support plate 5. The rotating member 12 includes a disc 121, a guide rail 122 and a second motor 123. The disc 121 is rotatably installed in the circular groove of the support plate 5. The top surface of the disc 121 and the support plate 5 are flush. A guide rail 122 is provided at the bottom of the guide seat 4 on the bottom plate 1. The second motor 123 is slidably installed on the guide rail 122. The output shaft of the second motor 123 is connected to the rotation center of the disc 121. The second motor 123 is used to drive the disc 121 to rotate, so that the disc 121 can drive the NdFeB blank 100 placed on the support plate 5 to rotate, so that the NdFeB blank 100 can rotate to change different hardness detection points and surface defect observation points, thereby improving the detection efficiency of the NdFeB blank 100.

[0041] like Figure 7 and Fig. 9 As shown, an electric suction cup 13 is provided at the rotation center of the disc 121, and the suction cup surface of the electric suction cup 13 is flush with the supporting top surface of the disc 121, thereby improving the stability of the NdFeB blank 100 placed on the support plate 5 and the disc 121 and avoiding the risk of the NdFeB blank 100 tipping over during hardness testing.

[0042] When the NdFeB blank 100 is placed on the support plate 5, by activating the electric suction cup 13, the electric suction cup 13 can firmly adsorb the NdFeB blank 100 on the disc 121, ensuring that the NdFeB blank 100 will not be displaced or tipped over during the hardness detection operation. In order to further verify the quality condition inside the NdFeB blank 100, by activating the second motor 123 and the flaw detector 11, the output shaft of the second motor 123 drives the NdFeB blank 100 on the disc 121 to rotate, and at the same time controls the slider 112 on the electric slide rail 111 to move, thereby adjusting the detection distance between the probe 113 and the NdFeB blank 100, so that the probe 113 can cover a larger detection range. The probe 113 emits ultrasonic waves for detection to the NdFeB blank 100. These ultrasonic waves will penetrate the NdFeB blank 100 and be reflected back when encountering internal structural changes (such as cracks or other defects). The reflected ultrasonic signals are transmitted to the ultrasonic signal display 114 through the wire 115.
