Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of PET plate testing, in particular to a clamp for shear testing of PET foam plates. Background Art

[0002] PET foam sheets have good heat resistance, mechanical strength and environmental protection performance, so they are widely used in construction, vehicles, roof insulation materials, sports equipment, wind energy and other fields. During the production and processing of PET foam sheets, it is necessary to sample and conduct mechanical property tests in terms of tension, compression, shear, etc.

[0003] During the shear force test, PET special adhesive glue is usually applied on the front and back sides of the PET foam sheet, and two special metal plates for testing are clamped on the front and back sides of the PET foam sheet respectively, and then two F clamps are used to clamp it manually. After the glue is completely dry, the positioning ends of the two special metal plates for testing are fixed on the universal stretching machine for testing. Although the F clamp is simple and easy to operate, it is impossible to ensure that the clamping force of each F clamp is the same during the clamping operation, and it is also impossible to ensure that the clamping force of each F clamp is the same, which makes the bonding between the PET foam sheet and the special metal plate for testing uneven, resulting in great volatility in the test data; at the same time, torque will be generated during the locking process of the F clamp, which will cause relative displacement and skew between the PET foam sheet and the special metal plate for testing, and will also affect the test data. In addition, the travel of the F clamp is limited, and it can only clamp one set of PET foam sheet and special metal plate for testing at a time, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive and inefficient. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to provide a fixture for shearing test of PET foam board, so as to solve the problems of large error in shearing force test result of existing PET foam board and low detection efficiency.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve its technical problems is: a clamp for shearing test of PET foam board, including a base, one end of the base is provided with a left fixed vertical plate, and the other end is provided with a right fixed vertical plate, a group of support rods and a clamping plate that moves back and forth are provided between the left fixed vertical plate and the right fixed vertical plate, and the right fixed vertical plate is also provided with a locking device for driving the clamping plate to move toward the left fixed vertical plate and lock it.

[0006] Specifically, the locking device includes a locking screw, and the right fixed vertical plate is provided with a locking screw hole matched with the locking screw; one end of the locking screw is also provided with a rotating handle.

[0007] In order to collect the excess glue squeezed out due to the force, a glue collecting groove is arranged on the base.

[0008] Preferably, the longitudinal cross-section of the support rod is a diamond-shaped structure with the vertex facing upward.

[0009] For the convenience of operation, a group of guide holes adapted to the support rods are arranged on the clamping plate, and the support rods are inserted into the guide holes.

[0010] In order to facilitate the control of the clamping force, a pressure sensor is arranged on the side of the left fixed vertical plate facing the clamping plate, and the pressure sensor is connected to a pressure display.

[0011] To facilitate movement, handles are provided on the left fixed vertical plate and the right fixed vertical plate.

[0012] To facilitate recycling of the glue in the glue collecting trough, the bottom of the glue collecting trough is a V-shaped structure with a low middle and high sides. A glue discharge outlet is also provided on the side wall of the glue collecting trough, and the glue discharge outlet is arranged close to the bottom of the V-shaped structure.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: the utility model drives the clamping plate to act on the component to be tested through the locking device, which can ensure that the force between each special metal plate for detection and the PET foam plate is uniform, so that the glue is evenly distributed between the two, so that each area is subjected to the same bonding force, and the pressure sensor can also be used to accurately control the clamping force of each batch of components to be tested to be the same. The above structure can ensure the uniformity of the components to be tested, thereby ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the test data. At the same time, the utility model can clamp multiple groups of components to be tested at one time, saving time and effort and improving work efficiency. In addition, by placing the component to be tested on the edge of the support rod with the top facing upward, the excess glue drips into the glue collection groove along the diamond-shaped slope, which is conducive to discharging the excess glue downward; and, through the cooperation of the V-shaped structure bottom of the glue collection groove and the glue discharge port, it is convenient to recycle and reuse the glue, avoid wasting glue, and thus save costs.

[0022] Examples, such as Figure 1-7 As shown, a fixture for shear test of PET foam sheet comprises a base 1, a left fixed vertical plate 2 arranged at one end of the base 1, and a right fixed vertical plate 3 arranged at the other end of the base 1, and two support rods 7 and a clamping plate 4 that moves back and forth are arranged between the left fixed vertical plate 2 and the right fixed vertical plate 3. In actual operation, firstly, the front and back sides of the PET foam sheet 102 are coated with PET special adhesive glue, and then two special metal plates 101 for testing are clamped on the front and back sides of the PET foam sheet 102, and then placed horizontally on the support rod 7. The above two special metal plates 101 for testing and the PET foam sheet 102 sandwiched in the middle constitute a group of components to be tested, and multiple groups of components to be tested can be placed on the support rod 7 at one time and clamped together.

[0023] In order to facilitate the clamping of the component to be tested, the support rod 7 is provided with a clamping plate 4 that can move back and forth for clamping the component to be tested. In order to ensure that the clamping plate 4 maintains horizontal movement, the clamping plate 4 is provided with a group of guide holes 41 that are adapted to the support rod 7, and the support rod 7 is inserted into the guide holes 41. The right fixed vertical plate 3 is provided with a locking device 5 for pushing the clamping plate 4 to move toward the left fixed vertical plate 2 and locking it. The locking device 5 includes a locking screw 51, and the right fixed vertical plate 3 is provided with a locking screw hole 31 that is adapted to the locking screw 51, and one end of the locking screw 51 is also provided with a rotating handle 52. During actual operation, the handle 52 is rotated clockwise to drive the locking screw 51 to move toward the clamp plate 4, and the end of the locking screw 51 acts on the clamp plate 4, thereby driving the clamp plate 4 to clamp the component to be tested on the support rod 7. After the glue is dried, the handle 52 is rotated counterclockwise to loosen the clamp plate 4, and then the component to be tested is removed and installed on the shear force testing machine for testing.
