Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of core clamps, in particular to an improved core clamping device. Background Art

[0002] The core holder is a device used to clamp, protect rock samples and seal the cylinder or end surface when measuring the seepage characteristics of rock samples or conducting displacement tests in the laboratory. It is an indispensable and important auxiliary component in the development of experimental instruments. The shell of the core holder is usually a cylindrical structure, so the use of the core holder in the laboratory requires a bracket to support and fix it.

[0003] For example, the utility model patent with the publication number CN214097438U provides a core clamp, in which a bottom plate is fixedly installed at the bottom of the core clamp body, a base is movably sleeved on the outer side of the base plate, a support plate is movably sleeved on the bottom of the base through an axis, a slot is provided on the front side of the inner cavity of the support plate, and a card is movably sleeved on the inner cavity of the slot. The core clamp is movably connected to the base and the support plate by an axis, and the two support plates are connected by a card plate, a telescopic rod and a first spring, so that the two support plates can be opened. The limit plate is provided on the outer side of the support plate to limit the opening angle of the two support plates, so as to support the core clamp body. At the same time, when the core clamp body needs to be transported, the card plate, the telescopic rod and the first spring between the two support plates can be removed, so as to facilitate the transportation of the core clamp body. There is also a similar utility model patent with the publication number CN218098782U, which discloses a core clamp. The core clamp utilizes a movable sleeve to rotate multiple rotating plates through a linkage, thereby storing the rotating plates, and then rotating the support rod to reduce the space occupied by the support rod, and limiting the rotation angle of the support rod through a locking piece, thereby facilitating the subsequent transportation of the core clamp body. The above two core clamps are cleverly designed, and both solve the problem that the fixed frame on the core clamp occupies a large space and is inconvenient to transport. However, since the core clamp is a cylindrical structure, it is easy to roll and bump during transportation, and the core clamp is a precision test instrument. Once it is damaged by a bump, it may affect the accuracy of the experiment.

[0004] Based on the above reasons, it is necessary to introduce a core clamping device with a folding bracket, and the folding bracket can play a certain protective role on the core clamping body. Utility Model Content

[0026] See also Figure 1-8The utility model provides a technical solution: an improved core clamping device, comprising a core clamping body 1, and also comprising a pair of upper guard plates 2, a pair of support seats 4 are provided at the lower part of the core clamping body 1, a pair of folding grooves 4-1 are provided at the lower ends of the pair of support seats 4, support legs 5 are rotatably installed in the folding grooves 4-1, one end of the support legs 5 is connected to a lower guard plate 6, a pair of the lower guard plates 6 and a pair of the upper guard plates 2 are provided with semicircular openings corresponding to the core clamping body 1, four pins 8 are provided at the lower end of the upper guard plate 2, pin holes 7 corresponding to the pins 8 are provided on the support seat 4 and the lower guard plate 6, a locking mechanism is provided on the pin hole 7, a plug 15 is provided on one side of the upper guard plate 2, and a plug hole 16 corresponding to the plug 15 is provided on one side of the lower guard plate 6;

[0027] The device is in a folded state when being transported or stored. In the folded state, a pair of upper guard plates 2 are buckled together with the lower guard plate 6 and the support seat 4, and the pin 8 of the upper guard plate 2 is inserted into the pin hole 7 of the lower guard plate 6 and the support seat 4. The locking mechanism fixes the pin 8 and the pin hole 7. The core clamp body 1 is located in the semicircular opening of the upper guard plate 2 and the lower guard plate 6. The upper guard plate 2, the lower guard plate 6 and the support seat 4 jointly play the role of protecting the core clamp body 1. When the core clamp body 1 is used for testing, the device is in an unfolded state. When unfolding, open the locking mechanism to remove the upper guard plate 2, rotate the support leg 5 90 degrees, and then connect the upper guard plate 2 with the lower guard plate 6 through the plug 15 and the jack 16. At this time, the support seat 4, the support leg 5, the lower guard plate 6 and the upper guard plate 2 jointly play the role of supporting the core clamp body 1.

[0028] Further, the locking mechanism includes a lock pin 12, and a through hole perpendicular to and through the pin hole 7 is provided on the support seat 5 and the lower guard plate 6. The lock pin 12 is slidably installed in the through hole and one end extends into the pin hole 7. The other end of the lock pin 12 extends out of the through hole and is connected to a handle 9 with a diameter larger than the through hole. The outer wall of the lock pin 12 is connected to a spring 10, and one end of the spring 10 is connected to the side wall of the through hole. The latch 8 is provided with a slot 8-1 corresponding to the lock pin 12;

[0029] Furthermore, a pair of secondary pins 11 are provided on one side of the handle 9 connected to the lock pin 12, and secondary pin holes corresponding to the pair of secondary pins 11 are provided on both sides of the through hole;

[0030] When the latch 8 is connected to the pin hole 7, one end of the lock pin 12 is inserted into the slot 8-1 of the latch 8. The spring 10 is a compression spring, so that one end of the lock pin 12 contacts the slot 8-1. When the latch 8 needs to be separated from the pin hole 7, the handle 9 is pulled to make one end of the lock pin 12 disengage from the slot 8-1. At the same time, a pair of sub-pins 11 disengage from the sub-pin holes. The spring 10 is compressed, and the handle 9 is rotated at an angle to make the pair of sub-pins 11 press against the side wall of the support seat 4 or the lower guard plate 6, thereby temporarily preventing the lock pin 12 from being reset. At this time, the latch 8 can be separated from the pin hole 7.

[0031] Furthermore, a rotating shaft 4-2 is installed in the folding groove 4-1, and the supporting leg 5 is rotatably connected to the supporting seat 4 through the rotating shaft 4-2. A torsion spring 13 is connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 4-2, and one end of the torsion spring 13 is connected to the supporting leg 5. A limiting pad 14 is provided in the folding groove 4-1;

[0032] When the latch pin 8 of the upper guard plate 2 is separated from the pin hole 7 of the lower guard plate 6, the support leg 5 together with the lower guard plate 6 is unfolded under the action of the torsion spring 13, and the torsion spring 13 can make the support leg 5 press against the limit pad 14, thereby keeping the support leg 5 in a vertical state.

[0033] Furthermore, the plug 15 is made of steel, and a magnet sheet 17 is provided in the socket 16;

[0034] The attraction of the magnet sheet 17 to the plug 15 can improve the stability of the connection between the plug 15 and the socket 16.

[0035] Furthermore, a pair of connecting rods 3 are hingedly connected between the pair of upper guard plates;

[0036] The connecting rod 3 is used to increase the stability of the device in the unfolded state.

[0037] By those skilled in the art, the components in this case are connected in sequence. The specific connection and operation sequence should refer to the following working principle. The detailed connection means are well-known technologies in the field. The following mainly introduces the working principle and process.

[0038] Embodiment: The device is in a folded state when being carried or stored. In the folded state, a pair of upper guard plates 2 are buckled together with the lower guard plate 6 and the support seat 4. The latch 8 of the upper guard plate 2 is inserted into the pin hole 7 of the lower guard plate 6 and the support seat 4. One end of the lock pin 12 is inserted into the slot 8-1 of the latch 8. One end of the spring 10 lock pin 12 contacts the slot 8-1. The core clamp body 1 is located in the semicircular opening of the upper guard plate 2 and the lower guard plate 6. The upper guard plate 2, the lower guard plate 6 and the support seat 4 jointly play a role in protecting the core clamp body 1. When the core clamp body 1 is used for testing, the device needs to be unfolded, and the handle 9 is pulled to disengage one end of the lock pin 12 from the slot 8. -1, rotating the handle 9 by an angle can make a pair of auxiliary pins 11 press against the side wall of the support seat 4 or the lower guard plate 6, so that the lock pin 12 cannot be reset temporarily. At this time, separate the pin 8 from the pin hole 7 and remove the upper guard plate 2. Under the action of the torsion spring 13, the support leg 5 and the lower guard plate 6 are unfolded. The torsion spring 13 can make the support leg 5 press against the limit pad 14 to keep the support leg 5 in a vertical state. Rotate the upper guard plate 2 90° along the connection with the connecting rod 3, and then connect the upper guard plate 2 to the lower guard plate 6 through the plug 15 and the socket 16. At this time, the support seat 4, the support leg 5, the lower guard plate 6 and the upper guard plate 2 jointly support the core clamp body 1.
