Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of hardness testing, and more specifically, to a tool for testing the Leeb hardness of a workpiece curved surface. Background Art
[0002] Hardness, as an important means of characterizing the performance of metal materials currently in service, has a wide range of applications in the fields of energy, electricity, chemical industry, etc.
[0003] Portable hardness testing methods provide great convenience for the detection of in-service metal material properties. The most typical ones are portable Brinell hardness tester and portable Leeb hardness tester. Among them, Leeb hardness tester is widely used in on-site inspection and testing due to its small size, easy operation and intuitive reading.
[0004] Taking thermal power plants as an example, there are many high-temperature metal materials that need to be tested for hardness, such as high-temperature fastening bolts, boiler heating surface tubes and the four major boiler pipes. They all have a common feature, that is, the testing working surfaces are all curved surfaces, while the end support ring of the Leeb hardness tester is a flat surface.
[0005] The principle of the Leeb hardness test method is that an impact body with a certain mass impacts the sample surface under a certain test force, and the impact velocity and rebound velocity of the impact body at 1mm from the sample surface are measured. Using the electromagnetic principle, a voltage proportional to the velocity is induced. The Leeb hardness value is expressed as the ratio of the impact body rebound velocity to the impact velocity. Therefore, this test method requires that when measuring curved workpieces, the probe must be perpendicular to the workpiece surface. Therefore, when using a portable Leeb hardness tester to test curved workpieces, due to the influence of factors such as human operation and inspection and detection position, the verticality between it and the workpiece detection surface has a great influence on the accuracy of the hardness test results.
[0006] In view of this, how to design a workpiece curved surface Leeb hardness testing fixture that can ensure the verticality between the Leeb hardness tester and the testing working surface of the tested workpiece is a technical problem that technical personnel in this field urgently need to solve.

[0045] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The present application provides a workpiece curved surface Leeb hardness testing tool, which mainly includes: a support plate 1, a sliding assembly 2, a support column assembly 3 and a positive plate 4.
[0046] The support plate 1 is provided with a sliding assembly mounting portion 11 (such as Figure 4 As shown in FIG. 1 , the sliding assembly 2 is fixedly connected to the sliding assembly mounting portion 11, and the sliding assembly 2 can slide vertically relative to the sliding assembly mounting portion 11 under the action of external force. The support column assembly 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 1 to support the curved surface to be measured.
[0047] Specifically, the sliding assembly mounting portion 11 is a square stepped hole arranged at the center of the support plate 1, and two threaded holes (such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown), the sliding component 2 is fastened and installed in the threaded hole by means of locking members such as bolts, so that the sliding component 2 is fixedly installed in the square step hole of the support plate 1.
[0048] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown. The positive plate 4 is a steel flat plate, and the material is preferably alloy steel or stainless steel, which has good strength and rigidity and is not prone to elastic and plastic deformation. The positive plate 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding assembly 2, and the positive plate 4 can be pressed against the curved surface to be measured under the drive of the sliding assembly 2. In addition, the positive plate 4 is provided with a hardness tester mounting portion 41, and the Leeb hardness tester is mounted on the hardness tester mounting portion 41.
[0049] When in use, the detection tool is placed on the outer arc surface of the workpiece to be inspected, the support column assembly 3 is in contact with the curved surface of the workpiece without shaking, the height of the sliding assembly 2 is adjusted so that the lower surface of the positive plate 4 is in contact with the circular arc surface of the cylindrical workpiece, and the portable Leeb hardness tester is placed on the hardness tester mounting portion 41, the end of the hardness tester contact ring is in contact with the detection working surface, and under the action of the positive plate 4, it remains perpendicular to the detection working surface. After that, the inspection can be carried out according to the inspection steps.

It can be quickly disassembled and assembled at the construction site, which greatly improves the accuracy and detection precision of the Leeb hardness test results of the cylindrical workpiece curved surface.
[0050] refer to Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 . In a specific embodiment, the sliding assembly 2 includes: four sliders 21, four slide rods 22 and four limiters. The four sliders 21 are fixedly connected to the sliding assembly mounting portion 11 and are circumferentially distributed in the sliding assembly mounting portion 11. The four side walls in the square sliding assembly mounting portion 11 of the support plate 1 are each provided with two threaded holes. One side of the slider 21 is a plane, and two through holes are provided thereon, which can be matched with the threaded holes on the step hole of the support plate 1 and are fastened by bolts. The slide rod 22 vertically passes through the slider 21, and the limiter is arranged at the connection part between the slider 21 and the slide rod 22. The vertical sliding position of the slide rod 22 is controlled by the limiter. The slide rod 22 slides vertically relative to the slider 21, thereby driving the positive plate 4 to press against the curved surface to be measured. It should be noted that the limiter in this application is a standard part. For the specific structure and working principle of the limiter, please refer to the prior art, which will not be expanded in this article.
[0051] The hardness tester mounting portion 41 is specifically a circular through hole provided on the positive plate 4, and the circular through hole is preferably, but not limited to, provided at the center of the positive plate 4. A clearance fit is adopted between the front end cylinder of the hardness tester and the circular through hole, and the diameter of the circular through hole is +0.01 to 0.02 mm of the nominal diameter of the front end cylinder of the hardness tester. An annular boss is provided on one side of the circular through hole. In order to facilitate the insertion of the front end cylinder of the hardness tester into the circular through hole, a chamfer is provided on the inner side of the annular boss 42, and at the same time, it can ensure that the circular through hole and the front end cylinder of the hardness tester cooperate smoothly without large shaking.
[0052] The bottom of the slide bar 22 is connected to the positive plate 4 by fastening bolts. Specifically, four step holes 42 (such as Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown), the step hole 42 on the positive plate 4 matches with the slide rod threaded hole 221 on the slide rod 22, and the positive plate 4 is installed on the slide rod 22 by tightening bolts, so that the positive plate 4 is rigidly connected to the slide rod 22.
[0053] It should be noted that there are various ways to connect the positive plate 4 and the sliding rod 22, for example, threaded connection or welding.

[0055] It is understandable that in order to improve the accuracy of the tooling, the four support columns 31 are preferably obtained by high-precision machining to ensure that the stud sections, cylindrical sections, concentricity, length and other dimensions of the four support columns 31 are exactly the same.
[0056] In the above embodiments, in order to reduce the probability of collision between the retrieval plate 4 and surrounding objects or operators during the lifting and lowering movement, chamfers can be set at the four corners of the retrieval plate 4. The chamfer structure can be a right angle or a rounded angle. At the same time, the chamfer setting can reduce the weight of the retrieval plate 4, making the movement of the retrieval plate 4 easier.
