[0020] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , in the embodiment of the present utility model, a sample clamping device for special-shaped samples and small samples includes a cylinder 1. The center of the cylinder 1 is used to place the sample. A bottom plate 2 is provided at the bottom of the cylinder 1. The bottom plate 2 is used to support the sample. A ball groove 3 is opened at the center of the upper end of the bottom plate 2. The spherical design of the ball groove 3 can increase the contact area with the bottom of the sample and ensure its stability during processing.
[0021] Threaded holes 4 and positioning holes 5 are provided on the outer wall of the cylinder 1 in a vertical distribution. A fastening bolt 6 is screwed into the threaded hole 4, and a positioning rod 7 is embedded in the positioning hole 5. One end of the fastening bolt 6 located inside the cylinder 1 is rotatably connected to the chuck 8, and one end of the positioning rod 7 located inside the cylinder 1 is fixedly connected to the chuck 8. When the fastening bolt 6 is rotated along the threaded hole 4, the lateral movement of the chuck 8 can be realized. The positioning rod 7 plays a fixing role on the chuck 8, so that the chuck 8 will not rotate synchronously with the fastening bolt 6. Three chucks 8 are provided, and three different-direction forces will be applied to the sample during work, which can ensure that the sample will not shift during the grinding process.
[0022] One side of the chuck 8 close to the sample is designed as an arc surface, which can increase the contact surface with the sample to a certain extent, so that it can clamp the sample more firmly and ensure the stability during the grinding process.
[0023] A fixed base 9 is provided at the lower end of the bottom plate 2. The fixed base 9 can be directly fixed on the grinding station by screws. A circular groove 10 is opened at the center of the upper end of the fixed base 9. A telescopic rod 11 is fixedly connected inside the circular groove 10. The telescopic rod 11 is rotatably connected to the bottom plate 2, so that the bottom plate 2 and the cylinder 1 can rotate based on the fixed base 9, which is convenient for the staff to grind different parts of the sample.
[0024] A plurality of embedding plates 12 are provided at the upper end of the fixed base 9, and a plurality of embedding grooves 13 are opened at the lower end of the bottom plate 2. The embedding plates 12 can be inserted into the embedding grooves 13 to realize the fixation of the bottom plate 2 and the fixed base 9 at different angles, which is convenient for the grinding work.
[0025] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows: When it is necessary to grind a specimen, first place the specimen to be ground in the ball groove 3 of the bottom plate 2 and initially fix it by hand. Then rotate the fastening bolt 6. Under the limitation of the positioning rod 7, when the fastening bolt 6 rotates, it will push the chuck 8 towards the center of the cylinder 1. When the chuck 8 moves to contact the specimen, stop. Move the other two chucks 8 in the same way so that they also contact the specimen. In this way, the specimen can be clamped and fixed by the three chucks 8, facilitating the grinding work. When it is necessary to grind different parts of the specimen, at this time, the cylinder 1 can be lifted upward based on the fixed base 9, and the telescopic rod 11 moves, which will not affect the upward movement of the cylinder 1. Then rotate the cylinder 1 based on the telescopic rod 11 to adjust the angle of the specimen. After the adjustment is completed, put down the cylinder 1, and through the embedding plate 12 and the embedding groove 13, the fixed base 9 and the bottom plate 2 are fixed, facilitating the grinding of different direction parts of the specimen.
[0026] The above is only the preferred specific implementation mode of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model, according to the technical solution of the present utility model and its inventive concept, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and should be covered by the protection scope of the present utility model.
