[0002] In subway maintenance operations, a huge amount of wheels are replaced. During the wheel withdrawal process, scratches on the axles are often found. If the scratches at different positions on the axles exceed a certain depth, the axles need to be scrapped and replaced with new ones. Therefore, during maintenance operations, it is also necessary to measure the scratch depth of the axles.

[0003] The existing technology generally uses depth gauges or steel plate rulers for measurement, and the numerical errors measured by the above methods are large; due to the low measurement accuracy, the above methods cannot measure small defects with accumulated scratches around the defects.

[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the utility model provides a tool for measuring the depth of axle scratches, including a digital depth gauge 1 and a positioning assembly, the positioning assembly includes a base 2, a first tool seat 3 and a second tool seat 4, the first tool seat 3 and the second tool seat 4 are respectively fixedly connected to the two ends of the lower wall of the base 2, and a probe groove 5 is provided on the upper wall of the base 2, the probe groove 5 is arranged to penetrate the base 2 in the vertical direction, and the digital depth gauge 1 is extended into the probe groove 5; the positioning assembly is made of nylon.

[0027] The digital depth gauge 1 includes a head 11, a probe 12 and a base 13. The head 11 is connected to the upper end of the base 13. One end of the probe 12 is inserted into the head 11. The probe 12 is slidably connected to the head 11. The other end of the probe 12 is passed through the base 13. The lower end of the probe 12 extends out of the base 13. The probe 12 is a probe-type displacement sensor. A processor is provided inside the head 11. The processor is used to receive and process the displacement signal transmitted by the probe 12. A display screen is provided on the head 11. The processor displays the displacement signal processed by the probe 12 on the display screen. The circuits electrically connecting the processor, the probe 12 and the display screen are all prior arts and will not be repeated here. The lower wall of the base 13 is a plane. The diameter of the probe 12 is 5 mm. The width of the base 13 is smaller than the width of the base 2.

[0028] The first tooling seat 3 and the second tooling seat 4 are vertically connected to the base 2. The base 2, the first tooling seat 3, and the second tooling seat 4 are all rectangular structures, that is, the upper wall of the base 2, the lower wall of the first tooling seat 3, and the lower wall of the second tooling seat 4 are all flat; the first tooling seat 3 and the second tooling seat 4 have the same size; the rear end of the base 2 is flush with the rear end of the first tooling seat 3 and the rear end of the second tooling seat 4, or the front end of the base 2 is flush with the front end of the first tooling seat 3 and the front end of the second tooling seat 4; the left end of the base 2 is flush with the left end of the first tooling seat 3, and the right end of the base 2 is flush with the right end of the second tooling seat 4.

[0029] When the rear wall of the base 2 is flush with the rear end of the first fixture seat 3 and the rear end of the second fixture seat 4, the front end of the base 2 extends out of the first fixture seat 3 and the second fixture seat 4 by a set distance; when the front end of the base 2 is flush with the front end of the first fixture seat 3 and the front end of the second fixture seat 4, the rear end of the base 2 extends out of the first fixture seat 3 and the second fixture seat 4 by a set distance, and the set distance is preferably 5 mm. Figure 3 What is shown is that the rear end of the base 2 is flush with the rear end of the first tooling seat 3 and the rear end of the second tooling seat 4 .

[0030] The probe groove 5 includes a connected semicircular groove 51 and a rectangular groove 52, one end of the rectangular groove 52 is connected to the semicircular groove 51, and the other end of the rectangular groove 52 is connected to the outside, the radius of the cross section of the semicircular groove 51 is 3mm, the radial length of the rectangular groove 52 along the semicircular groove 51 is 8mm, and the 5mm length portion of the rectangular groove 52 away from the semicircular groove 51 is set on the portion of the base 2 extending out of the first tooling seat 3 and the second tooling seat 4.

[0031] The diameter range of the axle acted on by the utility model is 120-185mm. When in use, the lower wall of the base 2 does not contact the axle, and the lower walls of the first tooling seat 3 and the second tooling seat 4 contact the axle, so the radius, chord length and arch height of the axle need to satisfy the following formula:

[0032]

[0033] In the above formula, A represents the arch height, which is the height of the first tooling seat 3 and the second tooling seat 4, r represents the radius of the axle, and x represents the chord length, which is the distance between the first tooling seat 3 and the second tooling seat 4.

[0034] When the length of the base 2 is set to 100 mm, the length of the first tooling seat 3 and the second tooling seat 4 is set to 10 mm, the chord length is 80 mm. Substituting the chord length into the above formula, the arch height is 15.3 mm when the axle diameter is minimum, and the arch height is 9.1 mm when the axle diameter is maximum. Considering the need to observe the position of the probe 12, the arch height is set to 18 mm.

[0035] Therefore, the dimensions of the base 2 are: 100 mm in length, 20 mm in width, and 10 mm in height; the dimensions of the first tooling seat 3 and the second tooling seat 4 are: 10 mm in length, 15 mm in width, and 18 mm in height.

[0036] In some restricted measuring positions, in order to ensure that the first fixture seat 3 and the second fixture seat 4 are in contact with the undamaged part of the axle and measure the deepest scratch point, the base 2 is arranged to extend out of the first fixture seat 3 and the second fixture seat 4 by a set distance, and the rectangular groove 52 is partially arranged on the extended part of the base 2, so that the digital depth gauge 1 can be fine-tuned forward and backward to ensure the accuracy of the depth measurement.

[0037] The utility model provides a tool for measuring the depth of axle scratches according to the working principle: a first tool seat 3 and a second tool seat 4 are set at an undamaged position of the axle, a probe 12 of a digital depth gauge 1 is inserted into a probe slot 5, a lower wall of a base 13 contacts an upper wall of a base 2, the digital depth gauge 1 is stably placed, the position of the digital depth gauge 1 in the probe slot 5 is adjusted, the probe 12 is aligned with the deepest point of the axle scratch, and the scratch depth at that position is measured by the digital depth gauge 1.

[0038] The positioning assembly of the utility model is made of nylon material, and the detection is easy; the first fixture seat 3 and the second fixture seat 4 are in parallel linear contact with the axle. When the positioning assembly is mounted on the axle, it can ensure that the positioning assembly is parallel to the axis of the axle, so as to achieve accurate detection; in order to avoid the interference of scratch accumulation, the base 2 extends out of the first fixture seat 3 and the second fixture seat 4 to set a distance, so that the digital depth gauge 1 can slide in the probe groove 5, so that the probe 12 is aligned with the deepest point of the scratch, and at the same time ensures that the first fixture seat 3 and the second fixture seat 4 are in contact with the undamaged position of the axle. Compared with the existing equipment, the utility model has a simple structure, low manufacturing cost, convenient use, high stability, and low maintenance cost, which greatly shortens the timeliness of the axle scratch depth measurement, achieves accurate measurement, provides a basis for the axle scrapping, and greatly saves the factory repair cost.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above content is only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, rather than to limit the protection scope of the utility model. Simple modifications or equivalent substitutions of the technical solution of the utility model by ordinary technicians in this field do not deviate from the essence and scope of the technical solution of the utility model.
