[0028] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 4 The utility model discloses a gauge for measuring the length of an inner groove, comprising a micrometer 300 and:

[0030] The measuring assembly 200 comprises: a rotatable measuring rod 210, which is connected to the micrometer 300; a detection block 220 is provided on the peripheral wall of the measuring rod 210; rotating the measuring rod 210 can drive the detection block 220 to be screwed into the inner groove of the workpiece to be measured; the thickness of the detection block 220 gradually decreases along the direction in which it is screwed into the inner groove, so as to form an inclined abutment surface 221 on the top surface or bottom surface of the detection block 220; the detection block 220 is gradually screwed into the inner groove of the workpiece to be measured so that the abutment surface 221 abuts against the side wall of the inner groove, so as to drive the measuring rod 210 to slide along the axial direction of the workpiece to be measured.

[0031] The present application provides a rotatable measuring rod 210, and a detection block 220 is provided on the measuring rod 210, and the detection block 220 has an inclined abutment surface 221. Specifically, the measuring rod 210 is extended into the hole of the workpiece to be measured and the measuring rod 210 is rotated, which can drive the detection block 220 to rotate and make the abutment surface 221 abut against the side wall of the inner groove; due to the inclination of the abutment surface 221, the end of the detection block 220 with a smaller thickness first enters the inner groove and makes the abutment surface 221 abut against the side wall of the inner groove. With the continuous rotation of the measuring rod 210, the positions at different heights on the abutment surface 221 can abut against the side wall of the inner groove, so that the detection block 220 can drive the measuring rod 210 to move a short distance in the height direction, and the distance in the height direction is transmitted by the measuring rod 210 to the micrometer 300 connected thereto, and converted into the reading of the micrometer 300, and finally the distance from the inner groove to the end face of the workpiece is measured, that is, the length of the inner groove.

[0032] It can be seen that the present application converts the height position of the inner groove side wall into the movement of the measuring rod 210 along the height direction through the inclined setting of the abutment surface 221, and then transmits the movement to the micrometer 300. The value of the micrometer 300 can be read to measure the length of the inner groove, thereby replacing the original solution of measuring with a vernier caliper, solving the problem that the caliper cannot be inserted due to the small aperture of the workpiece to be measured, and the large measurement error of the caliper.

[0033] Furthermore, the abutting surface 221 is located at the bottom surface of the detection block 220 , and the abutting surface 221 gradually tilts upward along the direction in which the abutting surface 221 is screwed into the inner groove.

[0034] The abutting surface 221 is located at the bottom surface of the detection block 220 , and the abutting surface 221 abuts against a side wall of the inner groove with a lower height. As the measuring rod 210 rotates, the detection block 220 drives the measuring rod 210 to move upward, and finally transmits it to the micrometer 300 .

[0035] Furthermore, the measuring assembly 200 further includes a fixing sleeve 230, a side wall of the fixing sleeve 230 is provided with a notch 231, and a height of the notch 231 is greater than a maximum thickness of the detection block 220;

[0036] The measuring rod 210 is eccentrically disposed in the fixing sleeve 230 , and the measuring rod 210 rotates relative to the fixing sleeve 230 to drive the detection block 220 to rotate into or out of the notch 231 .

[0037] Specifically, the fixing sleeve 230 can be provided to constrain the measuring rod 210. An eccentric hole 232 is provided in the fixing sleeve 230, and the measuring rod 210 is placed in the eccentric hole 232, so that the measuring rod 210 can rotate and slide in the eccentric hole 232. At the same time, a notch 231 is provided in the side wall of the fixing sleeve 230, and the notch 231 is a 90° arc groove. By rotating the measuring rod 210, the detection block 220 can be driven to rotate into the notch 231 and abut against the side wall of the inner wall of the workpiece to be measured.

[0038] Furthermore, a positioning block 260 is provided at one end of the fixing sleeve 230 , and the positioning block 260 has a positioning surface that can fit with the end surface of the workpiece to be measured.

[0039] Specifically, the positioning block 260 is provided to position the end face of the workpiece to be measured, which can prevent the workpiece to be measured from tilting and can also lock the position of the workpiece to be measured. When the workpiece to be measured is placed on the positioning block 260, the height of the detection block 220 can be roughly equal to the height of the inner groove of the workpiece to be measured, so that the detection block 220 can be screwed into the inner groove and abut against the side wall of the inner groove.

[0040] Furthermore, a rubber column 240 is further disposed at one end of the fixing sleeve 230 away from the positioning block 260 .

[0041] Specifically, the rubber column 240 is provided to prevent the top of the fixing sleeve 230 from hitting the bottom of the hole of the workpiece to be measured, thereby protecting the workpiece to be measured and the fixing sleeve 230 .

[0042] Furthermore, a preload spring is provided between the fixing sleeve 230 and the measuring rod 210 .

[0043] A preload spring is provided to provide a preload force for the measuring rod 210 to move downward, so that the abutment surface 221 always abuts against the side wall of the inner groove during the measurement process, and can be reset downward to the initial height after the measurement.

[0044] Furthermore, a toggle rod 250 is fixedly connected to the measuring rod 210 .

[0045] A toggle rod 250 is provided, and after the test is completed, force can be applied to the toggle rod 250 to drive the measuring rod 210 to rotate to the initial position, so that the detection block 220 returns to the notch 231 to facilitate the next measurement.

[0046] Furthermore, it also includes a linkage component, which includes a linkage rod 400, and the linkage rod 400 has a rotating part, a first connecting part and a second connecting part. The rotating part is located between the first connecting part and the second connecting part. The linkage rod 400 can rotate around the rotating part, the first connecting part can be connected to the measuring rod 210, and the second connecting part can be connected to the micrometer 300.

[0047] Furthermore, the dial gauge 300 includes a dial 310 and a telescopic rod 320 connected to the dial 310 , and the second connecting portion can abut against the telescopic rod 320 .

[0048] Furthermore, it also includes a box body 100 , the linkage assembly is arranged in the box body 100 , and the detection block 220 and the dial 310 are both located at the upper end of the box body 100 .

[0049] Specifically, when the measuring rod 210 is rotated, the detection block 220 is driven to slide relative to the side wall of the inner groove, and the detection block 220 slides upward together with the measuring rod 210. At this time, the linkage rod 400 rotates instantaneously under the action of the elastic force or torsion spring of the micrometer 300 (a spring is provided between the telescopic rod 320 and the dial 310, or a torsion spring is provided on the rotating part), maintaining the abutment between the first connecting part and the measuring rod 210, and then the telescopic rod 320 on the micrometer 300 slides downward and maintains the abutment with the second connecting part, thereby converting the downward movement of the detection rod into the upward movement of the telescopic rod 320, and then the detection block 220 and the dial 310 can be set at the same height (that is, at the upper end of the box 100) to facilitate measurement and reading.
