A gauge block 1 is installed on one side directly above the measuring body 16, which is leaned against by the side of the blade. The left positioning block 3 and the right positioning block 5 form a groove to clamp the blade, and a side block 4 for blocking the blade is provided at one end of the groove; the middle of the measuring body 16 is a hollow cylinder that crosses each other horizontally and vertically, and the horizontal and vertical spaces in the hollow cylinder are respectively installed with a propulsion shaft and a push rod 11, the push rod is pressed on the inclined plane on the surface of the propulsion shaft, and the inclined push rod is in direct contact with the propulsion shaft; when the propulsion shaft moves horizontally, the push rod moves up and down.

[0005] Furthermore, the measuring body 16 is used as the main structure, and a gauge block 1 is installed on one side just above the measuring body 16, which is fixed on the measuring body 16 by a cylindrical pin of a screw, and the top block 6 and the top rod 11 are connected together by a cylindrical pin 7 to tighten the blade 2. There is a gap between the upper part of the top rod 11 and the measuring body 16 for placing the spring 8, and there is a groove on the left side to prevent the top rod 11 from rotating with a limit screw 9. The up and down movement of the top rod 11 depends on the upward force of the conversion part when the propulsion shaft 13 moves horizontally below.

[0006] Further, the left and right movement of the propulsion shaft 13 is controlled by the self-made screw 14 on the right side. The tail cover 10 and the end cover 15 are fixed with screws on both sides of the cross-sectional hollow cylindrical part of the measuring body 16, and the lowest angle block 17 is used to adjust the angle of the blade tip.

[0012] Furthermore, a spring 8 is placed in the gap between the push rod 11 and the measuring body 6 to play the role of rebounding the push block when the blade is loosened, so as to facilitate the rapid replacement of the clamped blade.

[0013] Furthermore, the push rod 11, the propulsion shaft 13 and the limit block 12 can convert the lateral force into a vertical force by using the combination of inclined surfaces with appropriate angles. When the propulsion shaft 13 moves horizontally, it drives the limit block 12 and the push rod 11 to move upward. It is required that the contact inclined surfaces are as smooth as possible to reduce friction.

[0014] Furthermore, there is a transition structure stopper 12 between the push rod 11 and the propulsion shaft 13. The semi-cylindrical shape is embedded inside the push rod 11, and the inclined surface is in direct contact with the propulsion shaft 13. Without this structure, the push rod 11 and the propulsion shaft 13 are in direct contact, which may cause an error in the angle of the two contact inclined surfaces, resulting in the two surfaces not being completely aligned and only being in linear contact. The stopper 12 can solve this problem and automatically adjust the direction of force when subjected to force.

There are horizontal and vertical hollow cylinders in the middle of the measuring body, and the top block and the top rod are connected together by a cylindrical pin to tighten the blade. There is a gap between the upper part of the top rod and the measuring body for placing a spring, and there is a groove on the left side with a limit screw to prevent the top rod from rotating. The up and down movement of the top rod depends on the upward force of the conversion part when the propulsion shaft below moves horizontally, and there is a transition structure limit block between the top rod and the propulsion shaft. The left and right movement of the propulsion shaft is controlled by the self-made screw on the right side. The tail cover and the end cover are fixed to the two sides of the measuring body with screws, and the self-made screws are screwed in the middle of the end cover. The angle of the blade tip is adjusted by the lowest angle block.

[0036] according to Figure 1 As shown in , install the whole set of measuring tools in the following order, with the measuring body 16 as the main body, and install the internal parts. First, connect the top block 6 and the top rod 11 together through the cylindrical pin 7. The extra parts of the cylindrical pin 7 at both ends should be as identical as possible, and the length should be able to fit into the hole on the upper side of the side body 16. Then, the spring 8 is sleeved on the upper half of the top rod 11. Finally, the limit block 12 is inserted into the semi-cylindrical hole reserved under the top rod 11, and the whole assembly is placed aside. Screw the homemade screw 14 into the thread of the end cover 15, and the small head of the homemade screw 14 matches the reserved square hole of the propulsion shaft 13. After the internal parts are assembled, turn over the measuring body 16, with the side with the tail cover 10 facing down, and insert the combined part of the top rod 11 horizontally into the interior of the measuring body 16, and the grooved part of the top rod 11 faces down and aligns with the reserved limit screw 9 hole. Continue to install the propulsion shaft 13, vertically place the propulsion shaft 13 as a whole into the measuring body 16, with the inclined surface of the propulsion shaft 13 facing the direction of the push rod 11, and fit with the inclined surface of the limit block 12, and fix the end cover 15 on the measuring body 16 with screws. After completion, return the measuring body 16 to the right side with the groove facing up. Tighten the limit screw 9 at one end of the left tail cover 10.

Finally, install the tail cover 10 and tighten it with screws.

[0037] After the internal structure of the measuring body 16 is installed, continue to install the part just above the measuring body 16. Since the measuring tool assembly accuracy requirements are high, it is necessary to add some assembly requirements during assembly. First, install the gauge block 1, fix it with screws and cylindrical pins, and the N surface of the gauge block 1 is flush with the N surface of the measuring body 16, and the P surface of the gauge block 1 is parallel to the M of the measuring body 16.

Continue to install the side block 4, fix it with screws, and ensure that the M surface of the side block 4 is flush with the M surface of the left and right positioning blocks. Finally, the angle block 17 is fastened to the bottom surface of the measuring body 16 to level the two measuring surfaces of the gauge block 1, so as to facilitate the final micrometer dragging measurement. The Q surface of the angle block 17 is flush with the Q surface of the measuring body 16.

When measuring a specific blade, install the blade, drag the micrometer on the blade tip, and compare it with the two measuring surfaces of gauge block 1. If it is between the two values, the blade tip tolerance meets the drawing requirements and is qualified. Loosen the blade by turning the self-made screw 14, replace the next one and tighten it, and repeat the above operation.

First, connect the top block 6 and the top rod 11 together through the cylindrical pin 7. The extra parts of the cylindrical pin 7 at both ends should be as identical as possible, and the length should be able to fit into the hole on the upper side of the side body 16. Then, the spring 8 is sleeved on the upper half of the top rod 11. Finally, the limit block 12 is inserted into the semi-cylindrical hole reserved under the top rod 11, and the whole assembly is placed aside. Screw the homemade screw 14 into the thread of the end cover 15, and the small head of the homemade screw 14 matches the reserved square hole of the propulsion shaft 13.
