Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of metal corrosion fatigue tests, and particularly relates to a corrosion fatigue test fixture. Background Art
[0002] In various engineering applications, the fatigue performance of materials plays a crucial role in the safety of the overall project. According to statistics, component failures caused by metal material fatigue account for about 80% of all component failures. The fatigue fracture of components often has the characteristics of suddenness, high locality, and disaster.
[0003] With the rapid development of industry, the working conditions of metal components have become increasingly complex. In addition to serving in the conventional atmospheric environment, more and more metal components are applied in corrosive environments. Due to the particularity of the service conditions, once a metal component undergoes fatigue fracture, it will cause huge safety accidents and incalculable economic losses. Therefore, it is particularly important to carry out fatigue tests on metal components in corrosive environments.
[0004] In the corrosion high-cycle fatigue test, for the requirement that the specimen needs to be immersed in the corrosive solution, the traditional solution is relatively simple. First, the lower clamping end of the specimen is lengthened, and a round hole is machined in the center of the bottom plate of the corrosive solution container. Then, the lower clamping end of the specimen is passed through the round hole, and then the lower clamping end of the specimen is adhesively bonded and sealed to the bottom plate of the corrosive solution container at the round hole using an adhesive. During the test, the upper and lower clamping ends of the specimen are respectively clamped between the upper and lower chucks of the fatigue testing machine, and the middle reduced diameter section of the specimen is located inside the corrosive solution container.
[0005] However, the above solution has obvious drawbacks. First, during the curing process of the adhesive, the positions of the corrosive solution container and the specimen are likely to shift, which may result in insecure bonding, liquid leakage, etc. During the test, there is a risk that the corrosive solution container leaks liquid or even falls off from the lower clamping end of the specimen, which will not only cause the fatigue test data to be unusable, but also the spilled corrosive solution will harm the test personnel and the fatigue testing machine.
[0006] In addition, after the lower clamping end of the specimen is bonded to the bottom plate of the corrosion liquid container, it needs to be left standing for a period of time to ensure that the bonding between the lower clamping end of the specimen and the bottom plate of the corrosion liquid container is as firm as possible. However, in high-cycle fatigue tests, the high-stress part of the test progresses very quickly. To ensure the test efficiency, a large number of corrosion liquid containers need to be prepared. Moreover, after the test, the separation of the specimen from the corrosion liquid container is also very troublesome, and it is easy to damage the surface and fracture of the specimen during the removal of the binder, thus causing great trouble to the subsequent research work. In addition, most of the corrosion liquid containers are made of acrylic materials and are easily damaged under stress. Therefore, in terms of test efficiency and test economy, the traditional solutions are difficult to meet the requirements of corrosion fatigue tests. Summary of the Invention

[0037] Pick up the support plate 6 and the clamping rod 7 assembly, and insert the sealing gasket 8 on the clamping rod 7 of the assembly, then move the clamping rod 7 toward the container mouth of the corrosive liquid container 2 and move the assembly until the clamping rod 7 passes through the clamping rod insertion hole 10 at the center of the bottom plate of the corrosive liquid container 2 to the outside of the container.
[0038] Pick up the first locking nut 9, insert the first locking nut 9 into the clamping rod 7 and screw it into the external thread of the outer surface of the upper half of the rod body until the first locking nut 9 contacts the lower surface of the bottom plate of the corrosive liquid container 2, then tighten the first locking nut 9, the support plate 6 and the clamping rod 7 assembly is fixed to the corrosive liquid container 2, at this time, the sealing gasket 8 is firmly pressed between the support plate 6 and the bottom plate of the corrosive liquid container 2, and the clamping rod through hole 10 is sealed.

[0039] Transfer the assembled and fixed support plate 6 and clamping rod 7 combination and the corrosive liquid container 2 as a whole into the fatigue testing machine, and fix the lower half of the clamping rod 7 and the lower chuck of the fatigue testing machine together; then pick up the sample 1, and insert the positioning protrusion 11 at the lower end of the sample 1 downward into the positioning groove 12 at the center of the support plate 6; then pick up the clamping sleeve 3, and insert the large-diameter cylindrical section 13 of the clamping sleeve 3 downward into the sample 1 until the large-diameter cylindrical section 13 is in contact with the positioning protrusion 11; then pick up the clamping plate 4, and insert the large-diameter cylindrical hole 15 on the clamping plate 4 downward into the clamping sleeve 3 until the clamping plate 4 is completely placed on the clamping sleeve 3.
[0040] Pick up four clamping bolts 5, and put the four clamping bolts 5 into the four bolt passage holes 17 of the clamping plate 4 respectively, so that the lower end of the screw rod of the clamping bolt 5 enters the threaded blind hole 18 of the support plate 6, and tighten the clamping bolt 5 to move the clamping bolt 5 downward until the nut of the clamping bolt 5 contacts the upper surface of the clamping plate 4, and then tighten the clamping bolt 5 to complete the clamping and fixing of the clamping plate 4.
