Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of detection devices, in particular to a rail web grinding amount measuring instrument. Background Art

[0002] The steel rail is one of the most basic structures of a railway. The steel rail is integrally formed by a rail bottom, a rail web, and a rail head. The rail web belongs to the part with the smallest size in the cross-section of the steel rail. Due to different degrees of oxide layers and rusting conditions generated during the storage and transportation of the steel rail, during the construction process, according to the regulations of relevant technologies, it is necessary to grind the rail web of the steel rail. After grinding, it is necessary to monitor the thickness change of the rail web to ensure that the grinding amount does not exceed the specified range, thereby ensuring that the strength and other properties of the steel rail are not affected.

[0003] At present, a micrometer or a vernier caliper is mainly used to measure the thickness of the rail web at the end of the steel rail. For the measurement of the thickness of the rail web in the middle of a long steel rail and on the line, there are also some explorations in this regard. The Chinese patent with the patent number CN201621375146.5 discloses a steel rail web thickness measuring ruler. Although it can quickly and accurately measure the thickness of the in-service rail web on the line, the operation is cumbersome, the detection accuracy is poor, and it is difficult to detect the single-sided rail web grinding amount. Due to its measurement method and design structure, the upper surface of the steel rail is severely worn, and the fixed measurement distance is constantly changing. It is troublesome to accurately position the height of the measurement point and it is impossible to more accurately determine the grinding amount.

[0004] Based on the above defects and deficiencies, it is necessary to improve the existing technology and design a rail web grinding amount measuring instrument. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] The main technical problem solved by the utility model is to provide a rail web grinding amount measuring instrument that can efficiently, accurately and conveniently measure the grinding amount of the rail web of a steel rail.

A clamping groove matched with the rail bottom is arranged on the rail bottom block, and the rail bottom block is clamped on the rail bottom. An inclined surface matched with the rail head is arranged on the rail head inclined block.

[0015] Preferably, the fixed plate is installed on the support positioning plate through two linear sliding rails. The position of the digital display probe head is adjustable, and the wear amount at various positions above and below the rail web can be measured by taking points.

[0016] Preferably, the vernier scale is slidably clamped at the side end of the support positioning plate.

[0021] The clamping assembly, the rail bottom block and the rail head inclined block cooperate to assist in clamping and installing on the rail;

[0029] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , the embodiments of the present invention include:

[0030] A measuring instrument for the grinding amount of the rail waist, which includes a support positioning plate 1, a clamping assembly 2, a fixing plate 3, a digital display probe 4, a vernier scale 5, a rail bottom block 6 for the rail, a rail head inclined block 7, a linear slide rail 8, and a fixing screw 9.

[0031] The support positioning plate 1 is vertically magnetically clamped to the rail. On the side of the support positioning plate 1 close to the rail waist, a rail bottom block 6 for the rail and a rail head inclined block 7 are installed. The rail bottom block 6 for the rail is provided with a clamping groove 60 for mating with the rail bottom. The rail bottom block 6 for the rail is clamped on the rail bottom. The rail head inclined block 7 is provided with an inclined surface for mating with the rail head. The rail bottom block 6 for the rail and the rail head inclined block 7 are made of magnetic materials and are magnetically adsorbed to the rail. The rail bottom block 6 for the rail and the rail head inclined block 7 serve as the measurement and positioning reference, assisting the clamping assembly 2 to clamp, ensuring that the support positioning plate 1 is vertically arranged relative to the rail, thereby ensuring the stability of the overall structure, with simple operation and reliable use.

[0032] The clamping assembly 2 is rotatably installed on the upper part of the support positioning plate 1 and is fixed on the rail head by tightening a T-shaped clamping screw. The clamping assembly 2 includes a U-shaped plate 21, a hinge support 22, and a T-shaped clamping screw 23. One end of the U-shaped plate 21 is movably and rotatably connected to the support positioning plate 1 through the hinge support 22, and the other end of the U-shaped plate 21 is installed with a T-shaped clamping screw 23 that can be tightened and fixed on the rail head.

[0033] The fixed plate 3 is installed on the support positioning plate 1 through two linear slide rails 8, and its vertical position is adjustable, so that the wear amounts at various positions up and down the rail web can be measured by taking points.

[0034] The digital display probe 4 is installed on the fixed plate 3, and the digital display probe 4 points to the rail web. The digital display probe 4 is provided with a switch and an adjustment zeroing button for accurate measurement and reading before and after the rail web is polished.

[0035] The vernier scale 5 is installed at the side end of the fixed plate 3 and is movably clamped at the side end of the support positioning plate 1. The side end of the support positioning plate 1 is provided with a guiding chute 10, and the vernier scale 5 is provided with a guiding slider 51 that cooperates with it.
