[0024] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0025] As Figures 1-4 shown, a shrinkage rate measuring device for BMC materials includes a bottom plate 1. A support table 3 is fixedly installed at the center position of the upper end surface of the bottom plate 1. A plurality of measuring components are arranged on the upper end surface of the bottom plate 1 around the support table 3; The measuring component includes a fixed table 6. An electronic measuring instrument 5 is fixedly installed on the fixed table 6. A clamping structure is movably installed at the end of the electronic measuring instrument 5. An adjusting structure is arranged on the bottom surface of the fixed table 6. The adjusting structure includes an adjusting rail 4 slidably connected to the bottom plate 1. An adjusting groove is formed on the upper surface of the adjusting rail 4. A threaded rod 8 is rotatably installed inside the adjusting groove, and one end of the threaded rod 8 passes through the corresponding position at the end of the adjusting rail 4 and extends outside the adjusting rail 4. A sliding block 9 matched with the adjusting groove is fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixed table 6, and the sliding block 9 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 8;
[0026] Multiple sets of measuring components are distributed on the circumferential side of the object to be measured, enabling multiple measurements to be carried out simultaneously at different positions of the object to be measured, thereby improving the accuracy of the data during shrinkage rate measurement. Moreover, according to the different shapes of the object to be measured, the multiple sets of measuring components can be adjusted to slide on the upper surface of the bottom plate 1. Thus, the device can measure objects to be measured with regular shapes such as squares and circles, and can also measure objects to be measured with irregular shapes. Among them, the device can fix the central position of the object to be measured. Then, with the cooperation of multiple sets of measuring components, the circumferential side of the object to be measured after unfolding can be clamped and measured. Substitute the reading shown on the electronic measuring instrument 5 into the shrinkage rate calculation formula. The shrinkage rate calculation formula is usually expressed as (R before - R after) / R before multiplied by 100%, where R before and R after represent the original size and the final size of the material under specific conditions respectively. Then, the shrinkage rates of objects to be measured with different shapes can be obtained. According to the different shapes of the object to be measured, the user can not only adjust the orientation of the electronic measuring instrument 5, but also adjust the distance between the electronic measuring instrument 5 and the object to be measured by rotating the threaded rod 8 to adapt to the shape of the object to be measured. When the threaded rod 8 rotates, the position of the electronic measuring instrument 5 can be quickly adjusted and the electronic measuring instrument 5 can be limited, making the process of adjusting the position of the electronic measuring instrument 5 more convenient and fast.
[0027] As Figure 2 shown, the clamping structure includes a threaded sleeve threadedly connected to the end of the electronic measuring instrument 5. A connecting plate 7 is fixedly installed at the end of the threaded sleeve. Fixing plates 10 are fixedly installed at both ends of the connecting plate 7. Among them, a locking rod 12 is threadedly connected to the upper fixing plate 10. An extrusion block 11 is fixedly connected to the end of the locking rod 12. When the edge of the object to be measured is placed between the extrusion block 11 and the fixing plate 10, by rotating the locking rod 12, the extrusion block 11 can stably clamp the edge of the object to be measured. Then, when the object to be measured shrinks and deforms, its deformation amount can be reflected on the electronic measuring instrument 5 in real time.
[0028] As Figure 1 shown, a slide rail 2 is provided on the upper surface of the bottom plate 1. The slide rail 2 is arranged in a circular ring shape, and arc-shaped blocks 13 that cooperate with the slide rail 2 are fixedly installed on the bottom surfaces of multiple adjusting rails 4. According to the different shapes of the object to be measured, the multiple sets of measuring components can be adjusted to slide on the upper surface of the bottom plate 1 along the slide rail 2 through the arc-shaped blocks 13. Thus, the device can measure objects to be measured with regular shapes such as squares and circles, and can also measure objects to be measured with irregular shapes.
[0029] As Figure 3As shown, an electromagnet 14 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the support table 3, and an iron block 15 is magnetically connected to the upper part of the electromagnet 14. A plurality of extension rods 19 are rotatably connected to the circumference of the electromagnet 14, and the plurality of extension rods 19 are all arranged between two groups of measuring components; the connection force between the electromagnet 14 and the iron block 15 is adjustable, and the center position of the object to be measured with different thicknesses can be stably clamped, thereby facilitating multiple groups of measuring components to simultaneously measure the deformation of the object to be measured and then calculate its shrinkage rate.
[0030] like Figure 3 As shown, mounting grooves 17 are provided on the support platform 3 below the plurality of extension rods 19, and the interior of the mounting grooves 17 is rotatably connected with an electric telescopic rod 18, and the output end of the electric telescopic rod 18 is slidably connected to the bottom surface of the extension rod 19; during the extension or shortening process of the electric telescopic rod 18, the output end of the electric telescopic rod 18 can slide on the bottom surface of the extension rod 19, wherein the electric telescopic rod 18 can make the extension rod 19 unfold to a horizontal state, thereby widening the platform for placing the object to be measured in the device; when not in use, the extension rod 19 can be adjusted to be tilted downward and stored by contracting the electric telescopic rod 18, thereby preventing the extension rod 19 from being deformed or damaged by external force collision.
[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, a movable block is fixedly installed at the output end of the electric telescopic rod 18, and a slide groove 20 matching the movable block is opened on the bottom surface of the extension rod 19, and the movable block is slidably installed in the slide groove 20; according to the size of the unfolded area of the object to be measured, the electric telescopic rod 18 can be controlled to extend so that the movable block set at its end slides inside the slide groove 20, so that after the multiple extension rods 19 are opened, they can stably support the objects to be measured with different areas after unfolding.
[0032] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a lifting rod 16 is fixedly installed at the center position of the outer wall of the iron block 15, and a yield groove matching the lifting rod 16 is opened on the upper end surface of the electromagnet 14; the cross-section of the lifting rod 16 is T-shaped, so the setting of the lifting rod 16 is convenient for the user to pick up the iron block 15 to separate the iron block 15 from the electromagnet 14. When not in use, the iron block 15 is flipped over so that the lifting rod 16 can be locked downward and accommodated in the yield groove set at the upper end of the electromagnet 14.
[0033] Working principle of the utility model: When in use, the user places the object to be measured at the center position of the bottom plate 1. The support platform 3 and the electromagnet 14 arranged at the center position of the upper end surface of the bottom plate 1 can support the object to be measured. Among them, multiple extension rods 19 arranged on the periphery of the electromagnet 14 can be used to widen the entire placement platform. While lifting the object to be measured to the same horizontal height as the measurement assembly, it can reduce the influence of the deformation caused by the self-gravity of the object to be measured on the measurement result of its shrinkage rate. Among them, according to the size of the unfolded area of the object to be measured, the electric telescopic rod 18 can be controlled to extend, so that the movable block arranged at its end slides inside the chute 20, and then after multiple extension rods 19 are opened, they can stably support the object to be measured with different unfolded areas. Then, according to the different shapes of the object to be measured, multiple groups of measurement assemblies can be adjusted to slide on the upper surface of the bottom plate 1 along the slide rail 2 through the arc-shaped block 13. Then, the device can measure the object to be measured with regular shapes such as squares and circles, and can also measure the object to be measured with irregular shapes. Among them, through the cooperation of the iron block 15 and the electromagnet 14, the center position of the measurement object can be fixed. Then, with the cooperation of multiple groups of measurement assemblies, the periphery of the object to be measured after unfolding can be clamped and measured. Substituting the reading shown on the electronic measuring instrument 5 into the shrinkage rate calculation formula, the shrinkage rate of measurement objects with different shapes can be obtained. Among them, according to the different shapes of the object to be measured, the user can not only adjust the orientation of the electronic measuring instrument 5, but also adjust the distance between the electronic measuring instrument 5 and the object to be measured by rotating the threaded rod 8 to adapt to the shape of the object to be measured. When the threaded rod 8 rotates, the position of the electronic measuring instrument 5 can be quickly adjusted and the electronic measuring instrument 5 can be limited, making the position adjustment process of the electronic measuring instrument 5 more convenient and fast.
