Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of material testing, and in particular to a portable metallographic and micro-Vickers hardness integrated machine. Background Art
[0002] Vickers hardness tester can be used to measure the hardness of materials. The principle is that the diamond indenter presses the surface of the material for a specified time, and then the diagonal length of the indentation is measured, and the hardness is calculated according to the formula. Its test measurement range is wide and it can measure almost all metal materials currently used in industry. It is a common hardness measuring instrument.
[0003] Metallography: refers to the chemical composition of a metal or alloy and the physical and chemical states of the various components within the alloy. When a Vickers hardness tester is used to measure the hardness of a material, an indentation will be created on the metallographic structure after the Vickers hardness tester is pressed.
[0004] The existing Vickers hardness tester is only a desktop Vickers hardness tester, which needs to be placed indoors and installed horizontally on a stable foundation. It is very bulky and cannot be used on site. It can only be cut and taken to the laboratory for use. However, in reality, many objects that need to be tested cannot be cut, and the metallographic structure cannot be seen. That is, when it is necessary to perform Vickers hardness testing on materials outdoors, the existing Vickers hardness tester is inconvenient to use. Utility Model Content

[0014] The pressing head comprises a pressure sensor and a Vickers indenter. The pressure sensor is installed at the upper end of the Vickers indenter to measure the pressure of the Vickers indenter.
[0015] By placing the pressure sensor at the upper end of the Vickers indenter, the pressure applied by the Vickers indenter can be measured more accurately, making the measurement result more accurate.
[0016] The converter includes a fixed part and a rotating part, the fixed part is fixed on the slider, the rotating part is rotatably mounted on the fixed part, different objective lenses are mounted on the rotating part, and the rotating part has an objective lens hole, one side of the objective lens hole is opposite to the eyepiece, and the other side is opposite to the objective lens or a pressing head.
