Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of industrial CT scanning equipment, and particularly relates to a standard tensile specimen testing fixture for industrial CT. Background Art
[0002] Industrial CT (X-ray three-dimensional dimension measurement system) is a non-destructive testing device that uses the principle that the energy of X-rays is weakened when penetrating an object to detect detailed information inside the object. Industrial CT systems are generally composed of a ray source, a mechanical scanning motion system, a scanning and imaging system, and a computer. The mechanical scanning motion system is controlled by a computer, and during the detection process, the stage or fixture loaded with the sample to be tested is rotated through a turntable.
[0003] Standard tensile specimens are a common type of industrial CT test specimens. Due to standards and customer requirements, it is usually necessary to use industrial CT to check whether the internal defect content, size and volume of the specimen are qualified before the mechanical tensile test. Standard tensile specimens have a variety of specifications and shapes. The commonly used industrial CT stages and fixtures can only carry the specimens. Larger specimens cannot be placed stably, and there is a shaking problem during the sample rotation test, resulting in a decrease in test accuracy. Therefore, a fixture that can both carry and effectively fix the sample is needed to help complete the industrial CT test of tensile specimens of various specifications. Utility Model Content

[0010] The number of support rings of the positioning support system is greater than 2.

[0049] In an optional embodiment, according to the requirements of the standard tensile specimen, the number of support rings of the positioning support system is greater than 2, so as to increase the stability of the standard tensile specimen test fixture for industrial CT disclosed by the utility model.
[0050] The positioning bolts are threadedly matched with the through threaded holes of the support ring and the through threaded holes of the positioning support column in sequence from outside to inside; the bottom support ring 21 and the top support ring 22 are detachably and vertically fixedly connected to the positioning support column by the positioning bolts;

[0052] In this embodiment, the top support ring 22 can be disassembled and adjusted by screwing the bolts, and the top support ring 22 is installed at the corresponding threaded hole position of the positioning support column through the positioning bolts according to the sample height;
[0053] A gasket is installed at the inner end of the positioning bolt through a rotation connection; the inner surface of the gasket is in direct contact with the standard tensile specimen;
[0054] In this embodiment, the positioning support column is connected to the bottom support ring 21 by positioning bolts, the standard tensile specimen is placed in the center of the bottom supporting plate, and a gasket is put on the end of the positioning bolt; according to the shape of the specimen, the positioning bolt connected to the bottom support ring is first tightened until the gasket contacts the surface of the specimen and has a certain pressure, and after ensuring that the bottom of the specimen is effectively fixed, the appropriate threaded hole position on the positioning support column is selected according to the height of the specimen, the top support ring 22 is aligned with the selected threaded hole height and connected by positioning bolts, and a gasket is also put on the end of the positioning bolt, and the bolt is continuously tightened until the gasket contacts the side surface of the specimen and has a certain pressure.
[0055] In this embodiment, all the positioning bolts have the same hole diameter and thread diameter as the through threaded holes of the support ring and the through threaded holes of the positioning support column.

[0057] The gasket is a thin sheet with a certain geometric shape, and the material of the gasket is a material with low absorption of X-rays.
[0058] In this embodiment, the gasket is a thin sheet with a certain geometric shape, and the thin sheet must be made of a material with low X-ray absorption, such as high-strength plastic; the size and shape of the gasket can be changed according to the shape and type of the sample; the gasket has a threaded barrel that can cooperate with the positioning bolt, and is sleeved on the end of the positioning bolt through threaded cooperation.

[0060] In an optional embodiment, for a plate-shaped tensile specimen, the shape of the gasket may be changed to a flat thin plate, that is, a thin plate without curvature, so that the specimen can be clamped only in the radial direction.
[0061] In an optional embodiment, foam is inserted between the gasket and the standard tensile specimen to reduce the pressure of bolt tightening and reduce the influence of the bolt and gasket on the accuracy of the CT scanning test result.
[0062] In an optional embodiment, the shape and size of the gasket are adjusted accordingly according to the shape and size of the standard tensile specimen.
[0063] In an optional embodiment, considering that the fixture may absorb X-rays during the rotation test or block the sample to a certain extent, materials with low X-ray absorption, such as high-strength plastic, should be selected when manufacturing the fixture. For long and heavy specimens, the combination of bolts and gaskets alone is not enough to support the specimen without shaking during rotation. At this time, it can be considered to cut out a corresponding space in the cylindrical or prismatic solid foam according to the shape of the specimen, and the specimen can be fixed in the foam, and the foam can be squeezed tightly with a gasket to achieve the purpose of effective fixation. Since the foam absorbs almost no energy during CT scanning, this part can be easily filtered when processing data, and the foam can be filled as much as possible in the cylindrical space inside the fixture to shorten the depth of the bolts, which can also effectively reduce the impact of the fixture on the accuracy of the scanning results.
[0064] In summary, if Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, a fixture for detecting standard tensile samples for industrial CT disclosed in the utility model is used to perform CT scanning tests on rod-shaped standard tensile samples. The gaskets should be clamped at both ends of the sample as much as possible so that the sample has a larger scannable range. By adjusting the position of the top support ring, selecting the threaded hole that matches the size of the sample, adjusting the screw-in depth of the bolt, and changing the shape of the gasket, the positioning support system can be used to clamp various standard tensile samples of different shapes and sizes. The fixture for clamping the sample is connected to the industrial CT turntable through the raised cylinder on the lower surface of the bottom carrier plate 1 to test the sample to be tested.
