Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of alternating stress creep test, in particular to a fixture used for a three-point bending test and a test device containing the fixture. Background Art

[0002] Creep mainly refers to the phenomenon that the strain of a solid material increases over time while the stress remains unchanged. Many engineering problems involve creep. As an important component of a pumped storage unit, the rotor wire rod is related to a series of safety issues, so the detection of the mechanical and electrical performance indicators of the wire rod is also particularly important. The three-point bending creep test is one of the basic methods for testing the mechanical properties of materials.

However, since the effective test span and effective test width of the current three-point bending test device are relatively small, and the fracture space of the sample is also limited, it only stays at the measurement stage of the sample. Therefore, in order to simulate the centrifugal force on the rotor wire rod of a variable speed pumped storage unit during operation, a technician in this field provides a three-point bending test device, which uses an experimental method of applying weights to simulate the three-point bending force of the wire rod to solve the above-mentioned problems.

The handle 17 is connected to the base 1 and is used to move the fixture. The base 1 and the support plate 2 are both made of steel structures, and an inverted T-shaped groove 5 is horizontally provided at the top center of the base 1.

[0049] Each support plate 2 is connected to a slide seat 3. Specifically, the support plate 2 and the slide seat 3 are an integrated structure, the slide seat 3 is in an inverted T shape, and the bottom and side walls of the support plate 2 are connected to the slide seat 3 at the same time.

Therefore, the span can be changed by fixing the nut on the top of the threaded column, that is, the spacing between the two support plates 2 can be adjusted.

[0050] In this embodiment, the base 1 may be 500 mm long and 410 mm wide. The left and right support plates 2 may be located at any position within the range of the groove 5, and the position is not fixed, so the applicability is wider, and the adjustable span range is 50-300 mm.

[0051] Furthermore, the support plate 2 presents a trapezoidal shape that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. A limiter is provided on the top of the support plate 2, and the limiter can be a round roller. The minimum spacing between the two limiters is greater than the minimum spacing between the two support plates 2. Among them, the minimum spacing between the two limiters specifically refers to: the distance between the surfaces of the opposite sides of the two round rollers, and the minimum spacing between the two support plates 2 specifically refers to: the distance between the sides of the opposite sides of the two support plates 2. The limiter and the top of the support plate 2 enclose a placement space, and 1-5 samples 18 can be randomly added as needed.

[0052] Furthermore, a rectangular lifting hole 4 is opened in the middle of each of the support plates 2 .

[0053] Furthermore, the present embodiment also includes a test device for a three-point bending test, including the above-mentioned fixture and a pressurizing device. The pressurizing device can be freely selected according to the size of the stress to be applied.

[0054] When the stress to be added is small, the pressurizing device may include a support roller 7 and weights 8 suspended at both ends of the support roller 7, and stress aging is completed by placing the support roller 7 in the middle of the sample 18 and suspending the weights 8 at both ends of the support roller 7. When the stress to be added is large, the pressurizing device may include a connecting plate 9, four columns 10, a linear bearing 11, two support columns 12 and a weight tray 16.

[0055] Specifically, the support column 12 is detachably connected to both sides of the lower surface of the connecting plate 9. A pressure head 13 is also installed at the center of the lower surface of the connecting plate 9, and a pressure roller 14 is also provided at the end of the pressure head 13 to fit with the pressure head 13. The pressure roller 14 is cylindrical in shape, with a diameter of 20 mm and a length of 40 cm. It is located in the middle of the left and right support plates 2 and serves as a medium for applying stress. The height from the outer circle of the pressure roller 14 to the weight tray 16 is 60 mm.

[0056] The weight tray 16 is arranged on the upper surface of the connecting plate 9 and is used to place the weights 8. After the test equipment is installed, according to the breaking load of the sample 18, a suitable number of weights 8 are added. The weights 8 are cylinders with a diameter of 380 mm and a single weight of 20 kg. In this embodiment, the limit of the number of weights 8 added is 49 pieces. When all the weights 8 are placed on the weight tray 16, the total height of the device is about 1530 mm.

[0057] A linear bearing 11 matching the column 10 is disposed in the connecting plate 9 , and the linear bearing 11 is sleeved on the column 10 , so that the connecting plate 9 drives the pressure roller 14 to apply pressure to the sample 18 under the gravity of the weight 8 .

[0058] Furthermore, the column 10 is provided with a limit screw 15 to prevent the connection plate 9 from colliding with the clamp.

[0059] The test is carried out using the above test equipment, including the following steps:

[0060] (1) According to the actual conditions, the rotor wire rods of the variable speed pumped storage unit were selected as experimental materials and cut into test lengths that meet national standards.

[0061] (2) Install the fixture on the base plate, ensure that the fixture is parallel and stable to the pressure device, and use the cooperation of the four columns 10 and the linear bearing 11 to achieve guidance, ensure that the pressure head 13 is vertically downward, and is responsible for providing static force loading in the vertical direction.

[0062] (3) Since the support columns 12 on both sides support the pressure head 13, a certain space is left between the pressure head 13 and the support plate 2, which is convenient for installing the sample 18. When in use, the spacing between the support plates 2 is changed by screwing the nut on the top of the threaded column of the support plate 2 and moving the slide 3. The appropriate span is selected according to the length of the rotor bar. After moving to the required position for the test, the nut is tightened to fix the two support plates 2 connected to the slide 3 on the support base 1, and then the rotor bar is placed on the top of the two support plates 2. After the sample 18 is installed, the support columns 12 on both sides are taken out.

[0063] (4) At this time, a suitable number of weights 8 can be placed in the weight tray 16 above the pressure head 13, and the connecting plate 9 can be moved up and down to make the pressure roller 14 contact with the sample 18, so as to apply stress to the middle position of the sample 18, thereby performing a three-point bending creep test on the rotor bar.

[0064] To sum up, after reading the utility model document, ordinary technicians in this field can make various other corresponding transformation schemes based on the technical scheme and technical concept of the utility model without creative mental labor, which all fall within the scope of protection of the utility model.
