Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of eccentric compression component testing technology, and relates to a loading device for compression components with finely adjustable eccentricity direction and eccentricity distance. Background Technology
[0002] Cold-formed thin-walled channel steel is widely used in photovoltaic brackets, portal frames, and light steel structure workshops due to its lightweight and high strength. In order to meet the requirements of corrosion resistance or high strength, alloying elements need to be added to the steel itself. Therefore, it is very necessary to study the mechanical properties of these new types of steel.
[0003] When conducting eccentric compression tests on cold-formed thin-walled channel steel members, the specimen is typically welded to a specific location on an end plate before being mounted on a loading platform for loading. However, during the welding process, residual welding stress is generated due to localized heating and cooling. This stress may affect the specimen's compressive behavior, leading to inaccurate or non-repeatable test results. Furthermore, poor welding quality may result in insufficient strength at the connection, affecting the overall performance of the specimen and even causing localized failure at the connection. Welding fixation may also lead to eccentricity or misalignment of the specimen during installation. Finally, the requirement to weld end plates to each specimen before conducting the eccentric compression test increases the testing cost.
[0004] For example, Chinese patent CN117288578B provides a loading device for eccentrically compressed members with fine adjustment of eccentricity. It includes pads at both ends of a reinforced concrete column, an eccentricity calibration steel plate on the pads, a scissor plate, and a stiffening assembly on the scissor plate. The pads are fixedly connected to the longitudinal reinforcement bars in the reinforced concrete column. The pads have limiting screws for fixing the scissor plate. The eccentricity calibration steel plate has a slotted hole through which the limiting screws pass to fix the scissor plate. The stiffening assembly includes a loading end on the scissor plate and a loading plate on the loading end. The scissor plate has teeth to limit the sliding of the loading end when it forms an angle with the scissor plate during loading. The pads have a fixing assembly to limit the sliding of the scissor plate. However, this invention is only suitable for reinforced concrete columns and not for channel steel. Furthermore, it can only adjust the eccentricity in one direction, still failing to meet the fine adjustment requirements for channel steel specimens. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a precise and adjustable loading device for compression components with adjustable eccentricity direction and eccentricity distance. This device can effectively adjust the channel steel specimen to rotate around the weak axis or strong axis and the eccentricity distance, ensuring the accurate fixation of the load application position and solving problems such as unstable eccentric loading and high cost.
[0006] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A compression member loading device with fine adjustable eccentricity direction and eccentricity, comprising: An upper loading mechanism, including an upper knife绞板 (should be '绞板' replaced with '绞盘' perhaps, assume it as '绞盘' here) fixed on an actuator, an upper connecting plate located below the upper knife绞盘, an upper knife绞件 (should be '绞件' replaced with '绞合件' perhaps, assume it as '绞合件' here) provided between the upper knife绞盘 and the upper connecting plate, and an upper hoop assembly fixed on the lower surface of the upper connecting plate. The upper hoop assembly is used to fix the top of the channel steel specimen and can adjust the eccentric state of the channel steel specimen around the strong axis or the weak axis; A lower loading mechanism, including a lower knife绞盘 fixed on the reaction cross beam, a lower connecting plate located above the lower knife绞盘, a lower knife绞合件 provided between the lower knife绞盘 and the lower connecting plate, and a lower hoop assembly fixed on the upper surface of the lower connecting plate. The lower hoop assembly is used to fix the top of the channel steel specimen and can adjust the eccentric state of the channel steel specimen around the strong axis or the weak axis.
[0007] Furthermore, both the upper hoop assembly and the lower hoop assembly include a hoop base in the shape of a '回' character (should be '回' replaced with '回' is actually '口' character, assume it as '口' here), a slot unit for clamping and fixing the end of the channel steel specimen, and a hoop locking unit for adjusting and fixing the position of the slot unit on the hoop base. The middle area of the hoop base has a cavity in the shape of a '口' character, and the slot unit is located in the '口' - shaped cavity and its position is adjustable.
[0008] Even further, the slot unit includes a slot base, slot clamping blocks, and a slot locking rod. The slot base is provided with a strip - shaped slot into which the end of the channel steel specimen can be inserted. There are two slot clamping blocks, which are placed in the strip - shaped slot and can move within the strip - shaped slot. The slot locking rod can extend into the strip - shaped slot from outside the hoop base and抵住 (should be '抵住' replaced with 'abut against') the slot clamping blocks to clamp and fix the end of the channel steel specimen through the cooperation of the two slot clamping blocks and the strip - shaped slot.
[0009] More preferably, strip - shaped holes are processed on both sides of the hoop base for the slot locking rod to pass through; The hoop base is also provided with strip - shaped grooves parallel to the strip - shaped holes. The two ends of the slot base extend into the strip - shaped grooves and are restricted in their movement stroke by the strip - shaped grooves; The end of the slot clamping block is also provided with holes for the slot locking rod to match and extend into.
[0010] Even further, the hoop locking unit includes a hoop clamping block and a hoop locking rod. The hoop clamping block is placed in the '口' - shaped cavity and is located on both sides of the slot unit respectively. The hoop locking rod passes through the hoop base and抵住 (should be '抵住' replaced with 'abut against') the hoop clamping block to tightly lock the slot unit.
[0011] More preferably, there are at least two hoop locking rods on each side, and hoop through - holes for the hoop locking rods to pass through are processed on the side wall of the hoop base. It should be noted that there are some unclear or incorrect terms in the original Chinese text (such as '刀绞板', '刀绞件'), and the translation is adjusted as much as possible based on reasonable assumptions. If the original text can be further clarified, the translation will be more accurate.
[0012] Furthermore, the hoop base is installed on the upper or lower connecting plate by fixing bolts, and the installation direction of the hoop base on the upper or lower connecting plate is adjustable to selectively fix the transverse or longitudinal sides of the end of the channel steel specimen.
[0013] Furthermore, the upper surface of the upper connecting plate has an upper cutting edge that allows the upper cutting tool to be matched and entered, and the lower surface of the lower connecting plate has a lower cutting edge that allows the lower cutting tool to be matched and entered.
[0014] Furthermore, the upper blade plate and the upper connecting plate are provided with corresponding limiting through holes at their four corners. Before the load test, the distance between the upper connecting plate and the upper blade plate is fixed by limiting bolts that match the limiting through holes.
[0015] Furthermore, the upper blade plate and the upper connecting plate are also provided with corresponding safety bolts on both sides. During the loading test, after the limit bolts are removed, the safety bolts on each side are connected and fixed by safety steel cables.
[0016] In operation, this invention involves inserting both ends of the channel steel specimen into the slots of the upper and lower retaining ring bases. At this point, the channel steel specimen is in a preliminary, approximately centered position. The position of the retaining ring base is then adjusted using the retaining ring locking rod, and finally, the position of the channel steel specimen in another vertical direction is adjusted using the retaining ring locking rod to achieve eccentricity adjustment in both directions. If eccentricity around another axis is required, it can be achieved by changing the installation direction of the retaining ring base on the upper / lower connecting plates (rotating 90 degrees).
[0017] The compression member loading device provided by the present invention has significant improvements in the following aspects: 1. This invention employs a "separate design of the slot unit and the clamping unit." The slot unit is responsible for fixing and fine-tuning the position of the component in one direction, while the clamping unit is responsible for locking the position of the entire slot unit in another vertical direction. This functional separation makes the adjustment logic clear and the operations do not interfere with each other. It achieves "refined" eccentric adjustment. Each dimension can be adjusted and locked individually and precisely.
[0018] 2. This invention adopts a "rotatable hoop base installation method". Through simple reinstallation, it realizes the switching from "eccentricity around the weak axis" to "eccentricity around the strong axis" with the lowest cost and the highest efficiency, which greatly improves the versatility of the device and realizes "one machine for two purposes", thereby "saving costs".
[0019] 3. This invention employs a "non-welding mechanical clamping and fixing" method, using a mechanical method of clamping with slots and blocks and tightening with retaining ring blocks throughout the process, completely avoiding welding. This fundamentally eliminates the influence of welding residual stress on the mechanical properties of the specimen, while avoiding the strength weakening and misalignment problems caused by welding, significantly improving the accuracy and repeatability of the test.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: (1) The present invention will not generate residual welding stress due to welding the ends of the channel steel specimen.
[0021] (2) The present invention can adjust the channel steel specimen to be around the weak axis or strong axis and the eccentric distance during the test, so as to ensure the accurate fixation of the load application position.
[0022] (3) The present invention can be applied to channel steel specimens with the same flange length to perform eccentric compression tests around the weak axis or strong axis at different eccentric distances, which can save costs. If it is necessary to test channel steel specimens with other cross sections, the dimensions of the slot and the hoop can be designed to meet the requirements. Attached Figure Description

[0034] It should be noted that the term "绞板" in the original text may be a specific technical term in Chinese, and if there is a more accurate English equivalent, it can be further replaced for better understanding. Also, the text may contain some minor typos or unclear expressions in the original Chinese, which are translated as accurately as possible based on the context.In a more preferred embodiment, the two sides of the clamp base 5 are machined with strip-shaped holes 501 through which the locking rod 7 passes; the clamp base 5 is also provided with strip-shaped grooves 502 parallel to the strip-shaped holes 501, and the two ends of the slot base 6 extend into the strip-shaped grooves 502 and are restricted in their movement by the strip-shaped grooves 502; the end of the slot block 701 is also provided with a hole into which the locking rod 7 can be inserted.

[0036] More preferably, at least two of the clamp locking rods 8 are provided on each side, and the side wall of the clamp base 5 is machined with clamp through holes 504 through which the clamp locking rods 8 can pass. Specifically, the clamp through holes 504 are provided with internal threads, so that by engaging with the threads of the clamp locking rods 8, the position of the clamp block 801 can be effectively adjusted, thereby fixing the position of the slot unit and thus achieving the purpose of adjusting the eccentric distance in one direction. In addition, it should be noted that the extension and retraction adjustment direction of the clamp locking rods 8 is perpendicular to the adjustment direction of the slot locking rods 7 inside the slot unit, that is, one is horizontal and the other is vertical.
[0037] In a more specific embodiment, the hoop base 5 is installed on the upper connecting plate 2 or the lower connecting plate 9 by fixing bolts 503, and the installation direction of the hoop base 5 on the upper connecting plate 2 or the lower connecting plate 9 is adjustable to selectively fix the transverse sides or longitudinal sides of the end of the channel steel specimen 11.

During the loading test, when the limiting bolt 3 is removed, the safety bolts on each side are connected and fixed by a safety steel cable 4.
[0041] Each of the above embodiments can be implemented independently, or can be combined in any pair or in more combinations.
[0042] The above embodiments will be described in more detail below in conjunction with specific examples.
[0043] Example 1: To effectively adjust the channel steel specimen 11 to be eccentric about the weak axis or the strong axis and the eccentricity distance, ensure the precise fixation of the load application position, and solve problems such as unstable eccentric loading and high costs, this example provides a compression member loading device with a finely adjustable eccentric direction and eccentricity, as Figures 1 to 3 shown, including: An upper loading mechanism, including an upper knife plate 1 fixed on an actuator, an upper connecting plate 2 located below the upper knife plate 1, an upper knife member 101 provided between the upper knife plate 1 and the upper connecting plate 2, and an upper hoop assembly fixed on the lower surface of the upper connecting plate 2.

The slot locking rod 7 can extend from the outside of the hoop base 5 into the strip-shaped slot and abut against the slot block 701, so that the end of the channel steel specimen 11 is clamped and fixed by the two slot blocks 701 cooperating with the strip-shaped slot.
[0046] The hoop base 5 has strip-shaped holes 501 on both sides for the slot locking rod 7 to pass through. The hoop base 5 also has strip-shaped grooves 502 parallel to the strip-shaped holes 501. Both ends of the slot base 6 extend into the strip-shaped grooves 502 and are restricted in their movement by the grooves.

Furthermore, the slot base 6 has a slot through hole 601 with internal threads that thread-fit the slot locking rod 7. The slot locking rod 7 extends through the strip-shaped holes 501 and 601 into the strip-shaped slot, and then into the blind hole of the slot block 701, thus restricting the movement of the channel steel specimen 11 and adjusting the eccentricity in this direction.
[0047] The hoop locking unit includes a hoop clamping block 801 and a hoop locking rod 8. The hoop clamping block 801 is placed in the U-shaped cavity and is located on both sides of the channel steel specimen 11.

[0048] At least two locking rods 8 are provided on each side, and the side wall of the hoop base 5 is machined with hoop through holes 504 through which the locking rods 8 can pass. Specifically, the hoop through holes 504 are internally threaded, so that by engaging with the threads of the locking rods 8, the position of the hoop block 801 can be effectively adjusted, thereby fixing the position of the slot unit and adjusting the eccentricity in one direction. In addition, it should be noted that the extension and retraction adjustment direction of the hoop locking rods 8 is perpendicular to the adjustment direction of the slot locking rods 7 inside the slot unit, that is, one is horizontal and the other is vertical.
[0049] The hoop base 5 is mounted on the upper connecting plate 2 or the lower connecting plate 9 by fixing bolts 503, and the mounting direction of the hoop base 5 on the upper connecting plate 2 or the lower connecting plate 9 is adjustable to selectively fix the transverse or longitudinal sides of the end of the channel steel specimen 11. See Figure 3The lower connecting plate 9 can be equipped with two sets of bolt holes corresponding to horizontal and vertical installation methods, respectively. These, along with the fixing bolts 503, allow for installation along either the horizontal or vertical sides. The upper connecting plate 2 is configured similarly.

Before the load test, the distance between the upper connecting plate 2 and the upper blade plate 1 is fixed by limiting bolts 3 that match the limiting through holes.
[0052] The upper blade plate 1 and the upper connecting plate 2 are also provided with corresponding safety bolts on both sides. During the loading test, after the limit bolts 3 are removed, the safety bolts on each side are connected and fixed by the safety steel cable 4.
