[0024] DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0026] At least one embodiment of the present application provides a water cutting tool for welding sample, which refers to Figures 2 to 9 ​The water cutting tool for welding sample includes a base 1, a sample clamping plate 2, a first inner hexagonal cylindrical head screw 4, a second inner hexagonal cylindrical head screw 5 and a pressing plate 6. Two U-shaped grooves are arranged at the two short sides of the base 1 respectively. The base 1 is fixed in the water cutting equipment through the four U-shaped grooves at the two short sides of the base 1. Two sample clamping plates 2 are installed at the middle positions of the two long sides of the base 1 respectively, and are used to tighten the metallographic sample and the corrosion sample needed to be cut on the welding sample through the second inner hexagonal cylindrical head screw 5. Two pressing plates 6 are installed at the middle positions of the two short sides of the base 1 respectively, and are used to fix the welding sample on the base 1 through the first inner hexagonal cylindrical head screw 4. The welding sample is a cuboid workpiece daily witness sample.

[0027] It should be noted that the water cutting equipment is used to cut the metallographic sample and the corrosion sample along the cutting path.

[0028] For example, the size of the first inner hexagonal cylindrical head screw 4 is M5 20. The size of the second inner hexagonal cylindrical head screw 5 is M4 10.

[0029] In the embodiment of the present application, the second inner hexagonal cylindrical head screw 5 on the sample clamping plate 2 is used to tighten the metallographic sample and the corrosion sample needed to be cut on the welding sample, which avoids the metallographic sample and the corrosion sample from flying out or being damaged during the cutting process, eliminates the risk of sample loss, and helps to enhance the cutting stability and improve the cutting quality. The sample clamping plate 2 is fixed on the base 1 through the inner hexagonal cylindrical head screw 4, and the water cutting equipment can cut the metallographic sample and the corrosion sample along the cutting path. After cutting, the metallographic sample and the corrosion sample can be taken out by removing the second inner hexagonal cylindrical head screw 5 on the sample clamping plate 2.

[0030] In addition, the water cutting tool for welding sample provided by the embodiment of the present application has a compact design structure and light weight, and is suitable for the fixation, water cutting and disassembly of the welding sample, improves the water cutting quality of the sample, eliminates the risk of loss of the metallographic sample and the corrosion sample, and timely sends the sample, which guarantees the orderly production of the cuboid workpiece welding and improves the production efficiency of the cuboid workpiece.

[0031] In at least one embodiment of the present application, the middle part of the base 1 is a boss structure, and the boss structure is used to support the welding sample. In this way, the base 1 can support the welding sample through the boss structure, which is easy to clamp and can also reduce the overall weight and ensure the cutting quality.

[0032] In at least one embodiment of the present application, the bottom height of the sample clamping plate 2 is consistent with the top height of the boss structure of the base 1. In this way, by setting the bottom height of the sample clamping plate 2 to be consistent with the top height of the boss structure of the base 1, the bottom of the welding sample is kept flush during cutting, which helps to improve the cutting stability.

[0033] In at least one embodiment of the present application, the sample clamping plate 2 is a single concave structure, and the inside is also a concave structure with a small groove structure for clamping the short boss of the welded sample. In this way, the water cutting can avoid bumping the short boss along the cutting path, and the metallographic sample and the corrosion sample can be easily cut and removed, avoiding the risk of loss of the metallographic sample and the corrosion sample and facilitating quick disassembly.

[0034] In at least one embodiment of the present application, two second inner hexagonal cylindrical head screws 5 are arranged on each sample clamping plate 2. Referring to Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the orthographic projection of the sample clamping plate 2 on the base 1 is U-shaped. The sample clamping plate 2 is divided into an arc-shaped part and straight line parts connected on both sides of the arc-shaped part. Two second inner hexagonal cylindrical head screws 5 are respectively arranged on the two straight line parts of the sample clamping plate 2.

[0035] In at least one embodiment of the present application, the water cutting tool for welded sampling further comprises a first set of positioning components. The first set of positioning components comprises three positioning pins. The three positioning pins are fixed on the base 1 through a clearance fit. The three positioning pins together form an X-Y positioning system for positioning the welded sample on the water cutting tool. In this way, the three positioning pins together form an X-Y positioning system, and three-point positioning is used to achieve quick positioning of the welded sample on the water cutting tool.

[0036] In at least one embodiment of the present application, the parallel lines where two of the three positioning pins are located are parallel to the long side of the base 1. The remaining one of the three positioning pins is arranged at a position outside the parallel lines where the two positioning pins are located.

[0037] In at least one embodiment of the present application, the water cutting tool for welded sampling further comprises a second set of positioning components. The second set of positioning components comprises four positioning pins. The four positioning pins are fixed on the base 1 through a clearance fit for guiding the sample clamping plate 2 to position the water cutting tool through a clearance fit.

[0038] In at least one embodiment of the present application, the height of the positioning pin 3 is higher than the top height of the boss structure of the base 1. In this way, it is more conducive to quick positioning of the welded sample.

[0039] For example, the height of the positioning pin 3 can be slightly higher than the top height of the boss structure of the base 1. Figure 2 The plane is the plane positioned by the X-Y positioning system. The height refers to the shortest straight line distance in the Z direction perpendicular to the plane positioned by the X-Y positioning system. The structure of the positioning pin is described with reference to Figure 5 .

Then the first inner hexagonal cylindrical head screws 4 of the two pressing plates 6 are tightened to press the welding sample. Finally, the second inner hexagonal cylindrical head screws 5 on the sample clamp plates 2 are tightened to clamp the metallographic sample and the corrosion sample.

[0045] After the clamping operation is completed through the above operation, the cutting is prepared, and the cutting operation is as follows: The above clamped tool is transported to the water cutting equipment, is fixed in the water cutting equipment through the U-shaped grooves on both sides, after the appropriate X, Y and Z zero points are found, the equipment is started, and the cutting is performed along the cutting path.
