[0003] In existing technologies, the most basic tests such as tension, compression and torsion are generally used. There is a lack of equipment for rapid and effective testing of the radial strength of these workpieces, which makes it impossible to study the mechanical properties of these workpieces in real application scenarios. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a radial strength testing device for cylindrical structures, thereby solving the technical problem that the lack of equipment for rapid and effective testing of the radial strength of these hollow cylindrical workpieces in the prior art makes it impossible to study the mechanical properties of these workpieces in real application scenarios.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solution: A radial strength testing device for a cylindrical structure includes a support mechanism, a positioning mechanism located on the support mechanism, and a compression mechanism cooperating with the positioning mechanism. The positioning mechanism includes a plurality of wedge-shaped clamps arranged in a ring array on the support mechanism and a disc spring sleeved on the plurality of wedge-shaped clamps. Each wedge-shaped clamp is combined to form an expansion sleeve. The inner cylindrical surface of the cylindrical structure is sleeved on the outer surface of the plurality of wedge-shaped clamps. The compression mechanism includes a conical mandrel located on the side of the wedge-shaped clamps away from the support mechanism, a driving component for driving the conical mandrel to move toward the wedge-shaped clamps, and a pressure sensor connected to the conical mandrel.
[0006] According to one aspect of the above technical solution, the support mechanism includes a workbench, a clamping plate located on the workbench, a base plate located on the clamping plate, and a base plate sleeve fixed to the base plate. The clamping plate and the base plate are connected by a first bolt, and the base plate and the base plate sleeve are connected by a second bolt.
[0007] According to one aspect of the above technical solution, the wedge-shaped clamp includes a wedge-shaped portion and an extension portion extending from the wedge-shaped portion in a direction away from the other wedge-shaped clamps. The extension portion is located at the upper end of the wedge-shaped portion, and the outer surface of the wedge-shaped portion is recessed to form a placement groove. The disc spring is disposed in the placement groove of each of the wedge-shaped portions.
[0008] According to one aspect of the above technical solution, the driving assembly includes a press located above the positioning mechanism, a punch fixed to the side of the press near the positioning mechanism, a displacement sensor connecting the press and the clamping plate, a guide post disposed on the side of the press near the clamping plate, and a guide sleeve disposed on the side of the clamping plate near the press. The guide post is slidably disposed on the guide sleeve, and the pressure sensor is connected to the punch.
[0009] According to one aspect of the above technical solution, the conical mandrel includes an integrally formed cylindrical part and a conical part. The cylindrical part is fixedly connected to the pressure sensor by a third bolt. A plurality of wedge-shaped parts surround a receiving space, and the conical part is used to extend into the receiving space.
[0010] According to one aspect of the above technical solution, the extrusion mechanism further includes a bushing surrounding the outer cylindrical surface of the cylindrical portion, a base body surrounding the outer cylindrical surface of the bushing, a pressure cap fixed to the side of the base body near the wedge-shaped clamp, and a return spring connecting the bushing and the cylindrical portion. The cylindrical portion is slidably connected to the bushing, the side of the bushing near the extension portion is used to extrude the extension portion, and the pressure cap surrounds the side of the extension portion.
[0011] The present invention also provides a method for testing the radial strength of a cylindrical structure, which is based on the radial strength testing device for a cylindrical structure as described above, and includes the following steps: The cylindrical structure is placed on the outer surface of each of the wedge-shaped clamps; The drive assembly drives the tapered mandrel to move toward the wedge-shaped clamp, causing the wedge-shaped clamp to open under force, and the pressure sensor records the pressure value Faxial. Let N be the normal force of the conical mandrel acting on a single wedge-shaped clamp, f = μN be the frictional force, Faxial force be Faxial / φ be the axial force, and θ be the wedge angle of the wedge-shaped clamp; where φ represents the number of wedge-shaped clamps. Construct the axial force balance equation and the radial force balance equation between the wedge-shaped clamp and the tapered mandrel; By combining the axial force balance equation and the radial force balance equation, the solution to the equation is obtained; Substituting the solution of the equation into the radial force balance equation of a single wedge-shaped clamp, the radial force of a single wedge-shaped clamp is obtained, and then the total radial expansion force of the wedge-shaped clamp is obtained. The radial pressure of the wedge-shaped clamp is calculated based on the total radial expansion force of the wedge-shaped clamp.
[0012] According to one aspect of the above technical solution, the axial force balance equation is: ; The radial force balance equation is: ; The solution to the equation is: ; The formula for the total radial expansion force is: ; The formula for the radial pressure is: ;in, This indicates the area of the cylindrical structure.
[0013] According to one aspect of the above technical solution, after the step of calculating the radial pressure of the wedge-shaped clamp based on the total radial expansion force of the wedge-shaped clamp, the method further includes: The axial force Faxial collected by the pressure sensor is recorded in real time and converted into radial pressure Pradial. Verify whether the radial pressure Pradial satisfies the judgment formula; if so, the test is passed. ; Where S represents the safety factor and Pe represents the ultimate pressure under actual working conditions; After the experiment, check whether the cylinder structure has surface defects; otherwise, the test ends.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: By setting a positioning mechanism on the support structure and a compression mechanism that cooperates with the positioning mechanism, when it is necessary to test the radial strength of the cylindrical structure, the cylindrical structure is fitted onto the outer surface of each wedge-shaped clamp, so that the inner wall of the cylindrical structure is in close contact with the outer wall of the wedge-shaped clamp. Then, the conical mandrel is driven by the drive assembly to extend between multiple wedge-shaped clamps, causing the multiple wedge-shaped clamps to be compressed and deformed outward. Because the inner wall of the cylindrical structure is in close contact with the outer wall of the wedge-shaped clamp, the cylindrical structure will produce the same deformation, thus enabling the cylindrical structure to achieve the deformation effect required in actual use scenarios. The disc spring can fix multiple wedge-shaped clamps, ensuring that each wedge-shaped clamp is subjected to uniform force and deformation when compressed by the conical mandrel. This achieves stable clamping of the cylindrical structure. The axial force transmitted by the conical mandrel is collected in real time by a pressure sensor. Then, the radial force borne by the cylindrical structure can be calculated based on the axial force through a conversion algorithm. By continuously loading the conical mandrel to increase the axial force, the radial force reaches the target value. Under the action of the target value of radial force, the integrity of the cylindrical structure's appearance is verified. The radial strength of the cylindrical structure is tested in sequence to obtain the displacement strength curve. Then, the mechanical performance curve of the cylindrical structure is obtained based on the radial strength, and the elastic, yield, and tensile strength parameters of the cylindrical structure are obtained. According to different types of cylindrical structures, the actual working conditions of the cylindrical structure are determined, and then the strength parameters used to verify the strength of the cylindrical structure in actual application are determined.

Several embodiments of the invention are illustrated in the drawings. However, the invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete.
[0018] It should be noted that when a component is said to be "fixed to" another component, it can be directly on the other component or there may be an intervening component. When a component is said to be "connected to" another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or there may be an intervening component. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this document are for illustrative purposes only.
[0019] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein in the description of the invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0020] Please see Figures 1 to 7 The image shows a radial strength testing device for a cylindrical structure according to an embodiment of the present invention. It includes a support mechanism 30, a positioning mechanism 40 located on the support mechanism 30, and a pressing mechanism 50 that cooperates with the positioning mechanism 40. The positioning mechanism 40 includes a plurality of wedge-shaped clamps 23 arranged in a ring array on the support mechanism 30, and a disc spring 13 sleeved on the plurality of wedge-shaped clamps 23. Each wedge-shaped clamp 23 is combined to form an expansion sleeve 11. The inner cylindrical surface of the cylindrical structure 12 is sleeved on the outer surface of the plurality of wedge-shaped clamps 23. The pressing mechanism 50 includes a conical mandrel 21 located on the side of the wedge-shaped clamps 23 away from the support mechanism 30, a driving component for driving the conical mandrel 21 to move toward the wedge-shaped clamps 23, and a pressure sensor 19 connected to the conical mandrel 21.
[0021] Understandably, this invention, by setting a positioning mechanism 40 on the support mechanism 30 and a compression mechanism 50 that cooperates with the positioning mechanism 40, allows the cylindrical structure 12 to be fitted onto the outer surface of each wedge-shaped clamp 23 when the radial strength of the cylindrical structure 12 needs to be tested. This ensures that the inner wall of the cylindrical structure 12 is tightly fitted to the outer wall of the wedge-shaped clamp 23. Then, the conical mandrel 21 is driven by the drive assembly to extend between the multiple wedge-shaped clamps 23, causing the multiple wedge-shaped clamps 23 to be compressed and deformed outward. Because the inner wall of the cylindrical structure 12 is tightly fitted to the outer wall of the wedge-shaped clamp 23, the cylindrical structure 12 will produce the same deformation, thus enabling the cylindrical structure 12 to achieve the deformation effect required in actual use scenarios. The disc spring 13 can fix multiple wedge-shaped clamps 23, ensuring that each wedge-shaped clamp 23 is subjected to the conical mandrel. The pressure of the conical mandrel 21 is uniform during compression, allowing for uniform deformation and thus achieving stable clamping of the cylindrical structure 12. The axial force transmitted by the conical mandrel 21 is collected in real time by the pressure sensor 19. Then, the radial force borne by the cylindrical structure 12 can be calculated based on the axial force through a conversion algorithm. By continuously loading the conical mandrel 21 to increase the axial force, the radial force reaches the target value. Under the action of the target value of the radial force, the integrity of the appearance of the cylinder is verified. The radial strength of the cylindrical structure 12 is tested in sequence to obtain the displacement strength curve. Then, the mechanical performance curve of the cylindrical structure is obtained based on the radial strength, and the elastic, yield, and tensile strength parameters of the cylindrical structure are obtained. According to the different types of cylindrical structures, the actual working conditions of the cylindrical structure are determined, and then the strength parameters used to verify the strength of the cylindrical structure in actual application are determined.
[0022] Specifically, in this embodiment, the support mechanism 30 includes a workbench 8, a clamping plate 7 located on the workbench 8, a base plate 4 located on the clamping plate 7, and a base plate sleeve 10 fixed to the base plate 4. The clamping plate 7 and the base plate 4 are connected by a first bolt 5, and the base plate 4 and the base plate sleeve 10 are connected by a second bolt 9.
[0023] Understandably, the base plate sleeve 10 is annular, and a ring array of multiple wedge-shaped clamps 23 is arranged on the bottom of the base plate sleeve 10.
[0024] Furthermore, the wedge-shaped clamp 23 includes a wedge-shaped portion 232 and an extension portion 231 extending from the wedge-shaped portion 232 in a direction away from the other wedge-shaped clamps 23. The extension portion 231 is located at the upper end of the wedge-shaped portion 232. The outer surface of the wedge-shaped portion 232 is recessed to form a placement groove 233. The disc spring 13 is disposed in the placement groove 233 of each wedge-shaped portion 232. The conical mandrel 21 includes an integrally formed cylindrical portion 211 and a conical portion 212. The cylindrical portion 211 is fixedly connected to the pressure sensor 19 by a third bolt 18. The plurality of wedge-shaped portions 232 form a receiving space. The conical portion 212 is used to extend into the receiving space.
[0025] Understandably, the inner surfaces of multiple wedge-shaped portions 232 enclose each other to form a conical receiving space, which is for the conical portion 212 to enter. Since multiple wedge-shaped clamps 23 are spaced apart on the bottom plate sleeve 10, when the wedge-shaped portion 232 is squeezed, the wedge-shaped portion 232 will expand outward from the bottom end to drive the cylindrical structure 12 to expand outward. The purpose of setting the placement groove 233 in the recess on the outer surface of the wedge-shaped portion 232 is to make the disc spring 13 located in the placement groove 233, so as to avoid the cylindrical structure 12 not being able to fit tightly with the outer surface of the wedge-shaped portion 232.
[0026] Furthermore, the driving assembly includes a press 1 located above the positioning mechanism 40, a punch 20 fixed to the side of the press 1 near the positioning mechanism 40, a displacement sensor 2 connecting the press 1 and the clamping plate 7, a guide post 3 disposed on the side of the press near the clamping plate, and a guide sleeve 6 disposed on the side of the clamping plate near the press. The pressure sensor 19 is connected to the punch 20. The extrusion mechanism 50 also includes a bushing 15 surrounding the outer cylindrical surface of the cylindrical portion 211, a base body 16 surrounding the outer cylindrical surface of the bushing 15, a pressure cap 14 fixed to the side of the base body 16 near the wedge-shaped clamping plate 23, and a return spring 17 connecting the bushing 15 and the cylindrical portion 211. The cylindrical portion 211 is slidably connected to the bushing 15. The side of the bushing 15 near the extension portion 231 is used to extrude the extension portion 231. The pressure cap 14 surrounds the side of the extension portion 231.
[0027] Understandably, the press 1 and punch 20 drive the tapered mandrel 21 downwards, and the displacement sensor 2 records the descent distance in real time. When the bushing 15 contacts the extension 231 of each wedge-shaped clamp 23, the pressure cap 14 just surrounds the side of the extension 231, and the tapered mandrel 21 continues to slide down along the bushing 15 (at this time, the bushing 15 is blocked and cannot descend), causing each wedge-shaped clamp 23 to expand outwards. At this time, the return spring 17 is compressed. When the tapered mandrel 21 rises, the return spring 17 resets the tapered mandrel 21 back to its original position. Then, the bushing 15 no longer contacts the extension 231 of the wedge-shaped clamp 23, and the test ends. The function of the bushing 15 is to cooperate with the tapered mandrel 21 for positioning, ensuring that the tapered mandrel 21 can accurately and stably transmit force when subjected to force, and push the expansion sleeve 11 composed of each wedge-shaped clamp 23 to move synchronously in a straight line. The function of the pressure cap 14 is to limit the expansion sleeve 11 composed of each wedge-shaped clamp 23, prevent the expansion sleeve 11 from being excessively deformed or falling off during the stress process, and ensure the overall stability and safety of the expansion sleeve 11.
[0028] Furthermore, the bottom plate sleeve 10 has a recessed groove 101 on the side near the tapered mandrel 21 to allow the tapered portion 212 to enter.
[0029] Understandably, in order for each surface of the inner wall of the wedge-shaped portion 232 to fit tightly against the conical portion 212, the conical portion 212 must extend downward as much as possible. To avoid the apex of the conical portion 212 from colliding with the base plate sleeve 10, a relief groove 101 is provided on the base plate sleeve 10 to accommodate the apex of the conical portion 212.
[0030] In summary, the radial strength testing device for cylindrical structures in the above embodiments of the present invention can quickly test the radial strength of cylindrical structures in industry.
[0031] The second embodiment of the present invention provides a method for testing the radial strength of a cylindrical structure. This method is based on the radial strength testing device for cylindrical structures described in the first embodiment and includes the following steps (this embodiment uses a sleeve workpiece in an automobile as an example): The cylindrical structure (sleeve) is placed on the outer surface of each of the wedge-shaped clamps; this step is to ensure that the inner surface of the cylindrical structure fits tightly against the outer surface of the wedge-shaped clamps; The drive assembly drives the tapered mandrel to move toward the wedge-shaped clamp, causing the wedge-shaped clamp to open under force, and the pressure sensor records the pressure value Faxial. Let the normal force on a single wedge-shaped clamp be N, the frictional force be f=μN, the axial force be Faxial / φ, and the wedge angle of the wedge-shaped clamp be θ; where φ represents the number of wedge-shaped clamps; in this embodiment, there are 6 wedge-shaped clamps, so φ is taken as 6.
[0032] Construct the axial force balance equation and the radial force balance equation between the wedge-shaped clamp and the tapered mandrel; By combining the axial force balance equation and the radial force balance equation, the solution to the equation is obtained; Substituting the solution of the equation into the radial force balance equation of a single wedge-shaped clamp, the radial force of a single wedge-shaped clamp is obtained, and then the total radial expansion force of the wedge-shaped clamp is obtained. The radial pressure of the wedge-shaped clamp is calculated based on the total radial expansion force of the wedge-shaped clamp.
[0033] Specifically, the axial force balance equation is as follows: ; Substituting f=μN into the axial force balance equation, we get: ; The radial force balance equation is: ; The solution to the equation is: ; Substituting the solution into the radial force equilibrium equation, we get: ; The formula for the total radial expansion force is: ; Fradial represents the radial force on a single wedge plate, and FradialS represents the total radial expansion force on all wedge plates. The formula for the radial pressure is: ; in, This indicates the area of the cylindrical structure.
[0034] The radial pressure of the automotive bushing was thus determined.
[0035] The third embodiment of the present invention provides a method for testing the radial strength of a cylindrical structure, which differs from the second embodiment in that: The cylinder structure is illustrated using a fireworks launcher as an example. The axial length of the fireworks launcher sample is set to 40mm. By changing multiple wedge clamps, launchers with different inner diameters and wall thicknesses can be quickly measured, meeting the requirements for flexible measurement on the test bench. The mechanical properties of four common fireworks launcher materials—paper tubes, molded tubes, antistatic plastics, and stainless steel—are measured and statistically analyzed, covering the mechanical properties of common consumer-grade (0.8-inch, 1.0-inch, 1.2-inch) and professional-grade (1.5-inch, 2.0-inch) tube specifications. Detailed dimensional specifications are listed in the table below; this provides theoretical support for the selection of materials and structural design of launchers for different combinations of fireworks and small fireworks.
[0036] Dimensions (inner diameter, outer diameter, height) of fireworks launch tubes of different specifications
[0037] Analysis of the direction of motion and friction force during testing: The tapered mandrel moves downwards along the press, pushing the tapered mandrel downwards (axial direction). As the tapered mandrel moves downwards, the six wedge-shaped clamps expand outwards (radially) along the 10° conical surface of the tapered mandrel, while simultaneously exhibiting an upward sliding tendency relative to the tapered mandrel (opposite to the direction of motion relative to the tapered mandrel). Friction force 𝑓 hinders this relative sliding; therefore, the direction of the friction force acting on the expansion sleeve composed of each wedge-shaped clamp is downwards along the conical surface (opposite to the direction of motion of the expansion sleeve relative to the mandrel).
[0038] The specific testing steps are the same as in the second embodiment, and will not be repeated here.
[0039] In this embodiment, after the step of calculating the radial pressure of the wedge-shaped clamp based on the total radial expansion force of the wedge-shaped clamp, the method further includes: The axial force Faxial collected by the pressure sensor is recorded in real time and converted into radial pressure Pradial. Verify whether the radial pressure Pradial satisfies the judgment formula; if so, the test is passed. ; Where S represents the safety factor, which is usually taken as S=1.5 to 2.0 (adjusted according to the safety level of fireworks display), and Pe represents the ultimate pressure under actual working conditions. In this embodiment, it represents the maximum combustion and explosion pressure of black powder. After the experiment, check whether the cylinder structure has surface defects; otherwise, the test ends.
[0040] This embodiment compares the measured radial strength parameter with the maximum combustion and explosion pressure of black powder under actual application conditions of the fireworks launcher. If the measured radial strength parameter is greater than the maximum combustion and explosion pressure of black powder under actual application conditions of the fireworks launcher, it indicates that the fireworks launcher has passed the test and meets the application scenario. This embodiment provides theoretical and data support for the structural safety and quality of the fireworks launcher.
[0041] The overall testing method is based on the idea of converting the axial force and displacement of the conical mandrel test into radial force and displacement using a wedge clamp. Pressure and displacement are applied using a quasi-static, slow pressurization method, with a force application rate ≤100 N / s. This restricts the axial relative movement between the tested cylinder structure and the expansion sleeve formed by the wedge clamp, eliminating the influence of friction. The applied force and displacement in the axial direction are acquired in real time, with a pressure angle designed to be 10°. The force and displacement sensors have accuracies of 10 N and 0.01 mm, respectively. The variation law of radial displacement is depicted through synchronous acquisition of force and displacement, and the yield and fracture strength of the launch tube are calculated based on the variation curve. The sampling rate of the acquisition system is ≥200 Hz.
