[0043] See also Figures 1 to 3 The workpiece clamping auxiliary device of the embodiment of the present application includes a first potting chuck 3, a second potting chuck 4, a centering frame 8, a first retainer 5 and a second retainer 6 which are separately arranged.

[0044] like Figure 4As shown, one end of the first potting chuck 3 is provided with a first clamping groove 32 and a first centering groove 31. In this embodiment, the first potting chuck 3 is cylindrical as a whole, and a concave first clamping groove 32 is provided on the surface of one end of the first potting chuck 3, and an annular centering groove is provided on the periphery of the first clamping groove 32.

[0045] like Figure 5 As shown, the centering frame 8 includes a mounting portion 81 and a supporting portion 82 that are connected and arranged, the mounting portion 81 is used to be detachably connected to the workpiece 7, and the supporting portion 82 is used to be inserted into the first centering groove 31. The centering groove and the supporting portion 82 are adapted in size and are clearance-matched so that one end of the workpiece 7 is located in the first clamping groove 32. The centering frame 8 in this embodiment has a mounting portion 81 in the shape of a circular plate, and a concave mounting groove 811 is provided on the inner side surface of the mounting portion 81. The diameter of the mounting groove 811 can be slightly larger than the outer diameter of the workpiece 7. The mounting groove 811 forms a clearance fit with the workpiece 7 in the radial direction, which is convenient for the installation of the workpiece 7. For example, the workpiece 7 can be attached to the mounting groove 811 by double-sided tape, which is convenient for the disassembly and assembly of the workpiece 7 and the centering frame 8. The supporting parts 82 are connected to the circumferential edges of the mounting part 81, respectively. The supporting parts 82 are cylindrical, and the supporting parts 82 and the mounting part 81 are arranged vertically. A hollow part 821 is provided on the side wall of the supporting part 82, and the hollow part 821 is used to connect the first clamping groove 32 with the external space of the centering frame 8. The number of the hollow parts 821 can be one or more, and the provision of the hollow parts 821 can facilitate the injection of the adhesive 9 into the first clamping groove 32. The hollow part 821 of this embodiment extends from the end of the supporting part 82 to the mounting part 81.

[0046] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first clamping groove 32 is used to pour the adhesive 9 to fix one end of the workpiece 7 to the first potting chuck 3. The radial dimension of the notch of the first clamping groove 32 is smaller than the radial dimension of the groove bottom. For example, a certain taper can be set near one end of the notch to form a trumpet structure with a larger inner part and a smaller outer part for the first clamping groove 32. This design can prevent the adhesive 9 in the first clamping groove 32 from detaching when subjected to tension, thereby ensuring the reliability of clamping.

[0047] like Figure 4As shown, a second clamping groove 42 is provided at one end of the second potting chuck 4, and the second clamping groove 42 is used to pour adhesive 9 to fix the other end of the workpiece 7 to the second potting chuck 4. In this embodiment, the structure of the second potting chuck 4 is the same as that of the first potting chuck 3, and a second centering groove 41 is provided on the periphery of the second clamping groove 42. Designing the first potting chuck 3 and the second potting chuck 4 to have the same structure can be convenient for use. When in use, the first potting chuck 3 and the second potting chuck 4 do not need to be distinguished and can be used at will. That is, the second potting chuck 4 can be used interchangeably with the first potting chuck 3. When the second potting chuck 4 is used as the first potting chuck 3, the support portion 82 of the centering frame 8 can be inserted into the second centering groove 41. The structure of the second clamping groove 42 is the same as that of the first clamping groove 32, and will not be repeated.

[0048] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the first holder 5 and the second holder 6 are used to keep the first potting chuck 3 and the second potting chuck 4 coaxial and form a space for accommodating the workpiece 7 .

[0049] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the first retainer 5 and the second retainer 6 have the same structure, and respectively include an abutment portion 61 and a step portion 62. The abutment portion 61 is an arc-shaped plate-like structure, and the inner diameter of the abutment portion 61 is consistent with the outer diameter of the first potting chuck 3 and the second potting chuck 4. The step portion 62 is provided in the middle of the inner surface of the abutment portion 61. When in use, the step portion 62 is placed between the first potting chuck 3 and the second potting chuck 4, so that the first potting chuck 3 and the second potting chuck 4 maintain a certain distance, forming a space for accommodating the workpiece 7.

[0050] like Figure 6 As shown, in other embodiments, the first retainer 5 and the second retainer 6 may also be other structures, for example, the first retainer 5 and the second retainer 6 have the same structure, and each includes a support rod 51 and at least two clamping blocks 52 arranged on the support rod 51. The outer walls of the first potting chuck 3 and the second potting chuck 4 are respectively provided with clamping grooves 33, and the clamping grooves 33 are used to insert the clamping blocks 52. The inner surface of the support rod 51 can be set to an arc-shaped surface that matches the outer diameter of the first potting chuck 3 and the second potting chuck 4. A block 52 on the support rod 51 is inserted into the slot 33 of the first potting chuck 3, and the other block 52 is inserted into the slot 33 of the second potting chuck 4. The support rods 51 of the two retainers (the first retainer 5 and the second retainer 6) are respectively abutted against the first potting chuck 3 and the second potting chuck 4, so that the first potting chuck 3 and the second potting chuck 4 remain coaxial, and form a space for accommodating the workpiece 7, and axially limit the first potting chuck 3 and the second potting chuck 4.

[0051] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in order to further improve the clamping convenience of the workpiece clamping auxiliary device, a first clamping head 1 and a second clamping head 2 can also be provided. In this embodiment, the first clamping head 1 and the second clamping head 2 are also arranged in the same structure and can be used interchangeably. The first clamping head 1 includes a first connecting portion 11 and a first clamping portion 12 connected and arranged, and the first connecting portion 11 is used to be detachably connected to the first potting chuck 3; the second clamping head 2 includes a second connecting portion 21 and a second clamping portion 22 connected and arranged, and the second connecting portion 21 is used to be detachably connected to the second potting chuck 4. The first connecting portion 11 and the second connecting portion 21 are cylindrical structures, respectively, and concave threaded holes are respectively provided on the end faces of the two connecting portions (the first connecting portion 11 and the second connecting portion 21), and the first potting chuck 3 and the second potting chuck 4 are respectively provided with external threads at one end away from the clamping groove (the first clamping groove 32 and the second clamping groove 42), and the first potting chuck 3 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole of the first connecting portion 11, and the second potting chuck 4 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole of the second connecting portion 21. The first clamping part 12 and the second clamping part 22 are respectively plate-shaped, and fixing holes 121 are respectively provided on the first clamping part 12 and the second clamping part 22. The plate-shaped clamping part (the first clamping part 12 and the second clamping part 22) structure can be easily clamped, and the fixing holes 121 penetrating through the clamping part can be easily adapted to the universal testing machine, so that the traditional universal testing machine can fix and clamp the workpiece clamping auxiliary device through the round rod-shaped pin.

[0052] The method of using the workpiece clamping auxiliary device of the embodiment of the present application is as follows: Figure 7As shown, one end of the workpiece 7 is pasted in the mounting groove 811 of the centering frame 8 by double-sided tape. Then the support portion 82 of the centering frame 8 is inserted into the centering groove of the first potting chuck 3, so that the workpiece 7 is suspended in the first clamping groove 32. At this time, the adhesive 9 is poured into the first clamping groove 32. The adhesive 9 can be, for example, a potting resin. After the adhesive 9 is cured, the centering frame 8 connected to the workpiece 7 is removed. An appropriate amount of adhesive 9 is poured into the second clamping groove 42 so that the end of the workpiece 7 is immersed in the adhesive 9. The end of the workpiece 7 connected to the centering frame 8 is inserted into the second clamping groove 42. Then the step portion 62 of the first retainer 5 and the second retainer 6 (only the embodiment with this structure is described) is placed between the first potting chuck 3 and the second potting chuck 4, and the two retainers are closed so that the abutment portion 61 abuts against the outer walls of the first potting chuck 3 and the second potting chuck 4 to ensure the longitudinal coaxiality of the two potting chucks. After the adhesive 9 in the second clamping groove 42 is cured, the workpiece 7 is firmly fixed by the two potting chucks. At this time, the two retainers can be removed, and the first potting chuck 3 and the first clamping head 1 are fixedly connected, and the second potting chuck 4 and the second clamping head 2 are fixedly connected to complete the installation and fixation of the workpiece 7. If a tensile test is required for the workpiece 7, the workpiece 7 can be clamped on the universal testing machine by inserting two round bar-shaped pins into the fixing holes 121 of the two clamping heads respectively.

[0053] The workpiece clamping auxiliary device of the embodiment of the present application can expand the radial dimension of the workpiece into a dimension suitable for clamping, such as a clamping dimension compatible with a universal testing machine. It can be used as an auxiliary clamping tool for small-sized specimens, such as an auxiliary clamping tool for tensile tests of thin glass specimens. By appropriately increasing the radial dimension of the clamping groove notch, workpiece clamping of various specifications can be met. For the workpiece to be clamped, there is no need to limit the cross-sectional size and shape of the workpiece. After the clamping work is completed, the corresponding debonding agent (such as a resin debonding agent) or high-temperature heating and other measures can be used to remove the adhesive to achieve the reuse of the workpiece clamping auxiliary device.

[0054] It should be noted that, in this article, the terms "include", "comprises" or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. In the absence of further restrictions, an element defined by the sentence "comprises a ..." does not exclude the existence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the element.

[0055] The above is only a specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art who is familiar with the present technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present application, which should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
