[0032] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 6 , an embodiment of the present application discloses a torque wrench testing device 100 .
[0033] In one embodiment, if Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the torque wrench testing device 100 includes a workbench 10 , a linear guide rail 11 , a pressure detector 20 , a displacement detector 30 , a rotating member 40 and a driving mechanism 50 .
[0034] The workbench 10 is a carrier of the entire device. The workbench 10 has a hollow cavity 101 , so that some parts can be arranged in the hollow cavity 101 , so that the torque wrench testing device 100 has a compact structure and a small volume.
[0035] The linear guide 11 is fixed on the workbench 10 along the length direction of the workbench 10. The pressure detector 20 not only measures the reaction force of the torque wrench 200, but also carries the handle 202 of the torque wrench 200, and the central area of the handle 202 of the torque wrench 200 abuts against the pressure detector 20, so that the pressure detector 20 can measure the reaction force of the torque wrench 200. The pressure detector 20 can be slidably arranged on the linear guide 11, that is, the pressure detector 20 can slide on the linear guide 11, and then the position of the pressure detector 20 can be specifically adjusted according to the actual force arm length r of the torque wrench 200, so that the torque wrench testing device 100 can achieve a large test range by adjusting the position of the pressure detector 20.
[0036] Exemplarily, the pressure detector 20 can be a pressure sensor, and the output of the pressure sensor is generally an analog signal. The analog signal refers to an information parameter that is expressed as a continuous signal within a given range. Or within a continuous time interval, the characteristic quantity representing the information can be presented as a signal of any numerical value at any moment. The pressure sensors we usually use are mainly made using the piezoelectric effect, and such sensors are also called piezoelectric sensors. The displacement detector 30 can be a displacement sensor. The measurement of displacement is generally divided into two types: measuring the physical size and mechanical displacement, and the mechanical displacement measurement method is preferred.
[0037] The displacement detector 30 is used to detect the arm length r of the torque wrench 200. The arm length r refers to the distance from the contact point between the handle 202 and the pressure sensor to the center of the rotating part 40. The displacement detector 30 includes a main body 301 and a brush head 302. The main body 301 is fixed on the workbench 10, and the brush head 302 is fixed on the pressure detector 20. The brush head 302 is slidably connected to the main body 301, that is, the brush head 302 can slide on the main body 301, so that the brush head 302 follows the pressure detector 20 to move on the main body 301, so that the main body 301 can sense the displacement value of the brush head 302.
[0038] The rotating member 40 can be rotatably penetrated on the workbench 10. Specifically, the rotating member 40 is a rotating shaft. The torque wrench testing device 100 also includes a first bearing seat 92 and a second bearing seat 93. The first bearing seat 92 is fixed on the surface of the workbench 10, and the second bearing seat 93 is fixed at a position of the hollow cavity 101 corresponding to the first bearing seat 92. A through hole is opened on the workbench 10, and the through hole is respectively connected with the axial hole of the first bearing seat 92 and the axial hole of the second bearing seat 93, so that the transmission member 502 can pass through the axial hole of the first bearing seat 92, the through hole and the axial hole of the second bearing seat 93 in sequence, and the transmission member 502 is respectively connected with the first bearing seat 92 and the second bearing seat 93 by interference fit, so that the rotating member 40 can rotate.
[0039] The driving mechanism 50 is fixed in the hollow cavity 101, so that the structure of the torque wrench testing device 100 is more compact and small in size. The driving mechanism 50 is connected to the other end of the rotating member 40, and the working end 201 of the torque wrench 200 is connected to one end of the rotating member 40 by snapping, so that the driving mechanism 50 drives the rotating member 40 to rotate, and the rotation of the rotating member 40 drives the torque wrench to rotate. During the rotation process, the torque wrench 200 exerts a reaction force on the pressure detector 20, so that the pressure detector 20 detects the magnitude of the reaction force, that is, the driving mechanism 50 is used to drive the rotating member 40 to rotate, so that the rotating member 40 drives the torque wrench 200 to rotate and generates a reaction force on the pressure detector 20. Therefore, according to the fact that the torque T is equal to the product of the force F and the arm length r, the international unit is Newton meter N·ms, the magnitude of the torque can be calculated, wherein the force F is the reaction force, and the arm length r is the distance from the contact point between the handle 202 and the pressure sensor to the center of the rotating member 40.
[0040] In this embodiment, by setting the driving mechanism 50 in the hollow cavity 101 of the workbench 10, and then connecting the driving mechanism 50 and the torque wrench 200 respectively through the rotating member 40, the driving mechanism 50 drives the rotating member 40 to rotate, so that the rotating member 40 drives the torque wrench 200 to rotate, and the torque wrench 200 is rotated because the handle 202 abuts against the pressure detector 20 during the rotation process, so that the handle 202 gives the pressure detector 20 a reaction force, and the pressure detector 20 detects the magnitude of the reaction force, and the displacement detector 30 is fixed on the pressure detector 20, so that the displacement detector 30 moves with the pressure detector 20, and then the displacement detector 30 detects the distance moved, and the torque value can be calculated according to the torque T being equal to the product of the force F and the arm length r. It is achieved to reduce the number of torque sensors of the torque wrench test device 100, make the structure of the torque wrench test device 100 more compact and simple, reduce production costs, improve equipment stability, and there is only one torque wrench 200 clamping end, avoiding the risk of damage to the torque wrench test device 100 caused by the staff clamping wrongly. By sliding the pressure detector 20 on the linear guide rail 11, the fixed position of the handle 202 can be adjusted according to the arm length r of the torque wrench 200, so that only one displacement detector 30 and one pressure detector 20 are needed to achieve a large test range.
[0041] In one embodiment, the torque wrench testing device 100 also includes a slide 60 and a locking member 70. The slide 60 is slidably connected to the slide rail so that the slide 60 can slide on the slide rail. The locking member 70 is arranged on the slide 60, and the locking member 70 is used to lock the slide 60. When the pressure detector 20 is adjusted into place, the slide 60 is locked by tightening the locking member 70, so that during the test, the pressure detector 20 will not be offset when subjected to force.
[0042] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the torque wrench testing device 100 also includes a clamp 90 and an origin sensor 80, one end of the clamp 90 is arranged on the displacement detector 30, the origin sensor 80 is fixed on the workbench 10, one end of the clamp 90 is fixed on the displacement detector 30, and the other end of the clamp 90 is clamped into the origin sensor 80.
[0043] The pressure sensor needs to return to the origin position each time the power is turned off and then turned on again, and then the position of the pressure sensor is adjusted according to the force arm length r of the torque wrench 200. When aligning the origin, the pressure detection device slides and drives the card 90 to slide toward the origin sensor 80 until the card 90 is stuck in the origin sensor 80, and the card 90 blocks the laser emitted by the origin sensor 80, and then slowly withdraws from the origin sensor 80 in the opposite direction. When the card 90 completely withdraws from the sensing groove of the origin sensor 80, the position at this time is the origin position, and the origin alignment is completed.
[0044] In one embodiment, the torque wrench 200 test device also includes a touch screen computer 91, which is fixed on the workbench 10, and the touch screen computer 91 is electrically connected to the pressure detector 20, the displacement detector 30 and the origin sensor 80, respectively, so that the pressure detector 20, the displacement detector 30 and the origin sensor 80 can send data to the touch screen computer 91. After receiving the data, the touch screen computer 91 analyzes and calculates the data according to a preset program to obtain the torque, and can also store the received data for the staff to view later.
[0045] In one embodiment, if Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the driving mechanism 50 includes a driving member 501, a transmission member 502, a connecting member 503, a slider 504, and a synchronous transmission assembly. The driving member 501, the transmission member 502, the connecting member 503, the slider 504, and the synchronous transmission assembly are all arranged in the hollow cavity 101 of the workbench 10, so that the structure of the torque wrench testing device 100 is more compact. The output end of the driving member 501 is connected to one end of the synchronous transmission assembly, and the other end of the synchronous transmission assembly is connected to one end of the driving member 502. The driving member 502 and the driving member 501 are arranged in parallel along the longitudinal direction, so that the structure of the torque wrench testing device 100 is more compact and the volume is reduced. The other end of the transmission member 502 is connected to the first end of the connecting member 503. The second end of the connecting member 503 is connected to one end of the rotating member 40, and the working end 201 of the torque wrench 200 is engaged with the other end of the rotating member 40, and the handle 202 of the torque wrench 200 abuts against the pressure detector 20, so that the driving member 501 drives the synchronous component to rotate, and the synchronous rotating component 506 transmits the transmission force output by the driving member 501 to the transmission member 502 synchronously through its own synchronization characteristics, so that the transmission member 502 rotates and drives the connecting member 503 to move, and the movement of the connecting member 503 causes the rotating member 40 to rotate, and the rotating member 40 drives the handle 202 of the torque wrench 200 to rotate around the working end 201, so that the pressure detector 20 is subjected to a reaction force.
[0046] Exemplarily, the driving member 501 may be a stepping motor or a servo motor, and the transmission member 502 may be a lead screw.
[0047] Furthermore, the driving mechanism 50 also includes a slider 504, which can be slidably arranged on the transmission member 502, that is, the slider 504 can slide along the transmission member 502, the first end of the connecting member 503 is fixed on the slider 504, and the second end of the connecting member 503 is fixed on the rotating member 40, so that the connecting member 503 can slide along the transmission member 502.
[0048] The connecting member 503 is a long strip structure, and the width of the connecting member 503 gradually increases from the first end to the second end. Therefore, the width of the first end of the connecting member 503 is smaller than the width of the second end of the connecting member 503.
[0049] Furthermore, the synchronous transmission assembly includes a synchronous belt 507, a first synchronous gear 508 and a second synchronous gear 509. The first synchronous gear 508 is sleeved on one end of the transmission member 502, and the second synchronous gear 509 is sleeved on the output end of the driving member 501. The synchronous belt 507 is respectively meshed and connected with the first synchronous gear 508 and the second synchronous gear 509, so that when the transmission member 502 and the driving member 501 are arranged in parallel, the synchronous transmission assembly can ensure a strict transmission ratio.
[0050] Synchronous belt 507 transmission is meshing type belt transmission. It transmits motion through the meshing of the equidistantly distributed transverse teeth on the inner surface of the transmission belt and the corresponding tooth grooves on the pulley, which can ensure a strict transmission ratio.
[0051] In summary, the present application measures the arm length r of the torque wrench 200 through the displacement detector 30, and measures the magnitude of the reaction force through the pressure detector 20, and then calculates the torque by the torque T being equal to the product of the force F and the arm length r, and then cooperates with the mobile pressure detector 20 to adapt to different arm lengths r of the torque wrench 200. The structure is compact and simple. A detection channel is established by a displacement detector 30 and a pressure detector 20, and a detection channel is established; the risk of damage to the torque wrench testing device 100 caused by staff errors is avoided, and the torque sensor is reduced, thereby reducing costs; and the detection channel can test torque wrenches 200 of various sizes, so that the test range of the torque wrench testing device 100 is large and the operation is simple, and then the obtained torque is compared with the preset value through the touch screen computer 91 to determine whether the torque of the torque wrench 200 is within the error range. This is different from the prior art, in which a torque sensor is provided to directly measure the torque value. However, due to the range limitation of the torque sensor, a specific torque sensor must be provided according to the lever arm length r of the torque wrench 200. This results in the need to provide multiple torque sensors on the test bench to meet the lever arm lengths r of different torque wrenches 200, resulting in a complicated structure. In addition, multiple torque sensors make it easy for staff to misplace the torque wrench 200, which makes the operation cumbersome.

Under the concept of the present application, the technical features in the above embodiments or different embodiments may also be combined, the steps may be implemented in any order, and there are many other changes in different aspects of the present application as described above, which are not provided in detail for the sake of simplicity. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, a person of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments may still be modified, or some of the technical features may be replaced by equivalents. These modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
