[0045] Embodiment:

[0046] Refer to Figures 1 to 6 , an embodiment of the present utility model discloses a stretching caliper device for vulcanized rubber or thermoplastic rubber, which includes a workbench 100, a fixture 200, a guide post 300, a stretching structure 400 and a caliper 500. The fixture 200 and the guide post 300 are both installed on the workbench 100. The stretching structure 400 includes a stretching clamp 420 that can move up and down along the guide post 300 and a threaded rod 410 for controlling the position of the stretching clamp 420. The stretching clamp and the fixture 200 respectively clamp both ends of the workpiece 600, and when the stretching clamp 420 moves up and down, it can stretch the workpiece 600. The caliper 500 is arranged on the moving path of the stretching clamp 420, and the caliper 500 is used to limit the maximum stretching distance of the stretching clamp 420.

[0047] The stretching caliper device for vulcanized rubber or thermoplastic rubber disclosed in this embodiment can limit the position of the stretching clamp 420 by using the caliper 500, so as to control the longest distance that the workpiece 600 is stretched, and test the workpiece 600 without damaging the workpiece 600.

[0048] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2, the workbench 100 includes a base 110, a support rod 130, and a top plate 120. The base 110 and the top plate 120 are respectively installed at both ends of the support rod 130. The top plate 120 is connected to the support rod 130 by bolts 150, and positioning holes 140 are respectively provided on the base 110 and the top plate 120. The cross-section of the positioning hole 140 is rectangular or hexagonal. Of course, setting the positioning hole 140 to the above shape is only one implementation manner in this embodiment. In other implementation manners, setting the shape of the positioning hole 140 to a triangle or other non-circular shapes is also possible. The positioning hole 140 is used to restrict the guide post 300 to prevent the guide post 300 from rotating along its axis.

[0049] Both ends of the guide post 300 are respectively inserted into the positioning holes 140 on the base 110 and the top plate 120. The detachable cooperation between the top plate 120 and the support rod 130 makes the disassembly of the guide post 300 more convenient.

[0050] Refer to Figure 3 , the stretching structure 400 includes a threaded rod 410 and a stretching clamp 420 for clamping the workpiece 600. The position of the stretching clamp 420 corresponds to the position of the fixture 200, and the stretching clamp 420 is slidably connected to the guide post 300. The threaded rod 410 is rotatably connected to the stretching clamp 420 and is threadedly connected to the workbench 100. In this way, when the threaded rod 410 is rotated, the stretching clamp 420 can be driven to move up and down, so as to stretch the workpiece 600 located between the stretching clamp 420 and the fixture 200.

[0051] Among them, a guide groove is provided on the guide post 300, and the guide groove extends along the height direction of the guide post 300. A clamping block is provided on the stretching clamp 420, and the clamping block is slidably engaged with the guide groove. The guide groove can be set as a T-shaped groove or a dovetail groove or other shapes.

[0052] Of course, the above connection manner between the threaded rod 410 and the stretching clamp 420 is not the only connection manner. In other embodiments, it is also possible to make the threaded rod 410 rotatably connected to the top plate 120 and threadedly connected to the stretching clamp 420.

[0053] The caliper 500 is used to control the stretching distance of the stretching structure 400. Specifically, the caliper 500 is arranged above the stretching clamp 420. When the stretching clamp 420 moves upward and abuts against the caliper 500, the stretching clamp 420 cannot continue to move upward, that is, the stretching length of the workpiece 600 is restricted.

[0054] Refer to Figures 4 to 6, a plurality of teeth 310 are provided on the guide rod. The teeth 310 are located on the side of the guide rod away from the guide groove to prevent the control of the caliper 500 from conflicting or colliding with the movement of the stretching pliers 420. The plurality of teeth 310 are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the guide rod. The teeth 310 include a contact surface and an inclined surface. The contact surface is located below the teeth 310 and is perpendicular to the guide post 300, and the inclined surface is located above the teeth 310.

[0055] Referring to FIG. 6, the caliper 500 includes a movable ring 510 and a retaining bar 520. A retaining strip 512, an elastic member 513, a control knob 514 and a connecting rope 515 are provided on the movable ring 510. The movable ring 510 is slidably engaged with the guide post 300, and the movable ring 510 is located above the stretching pliers 420. The retaining bar 520 is provided on the side of the movable ring 510 facing the stretching pliers 420.

[0056] A relief groove 511 is provided at a position of the movable ring 510 corresponding to the teeth 310. A retaining strip 512 and an elastic member 513 are provided on the movable ring 510. The retaining strip 512 is arranged in the relief groove 511 and is rotatably connected to the movable ring 510.

[0057] Both ends of the elastic member 513 are respectively connected to the movable ring 510 and the retaining strip 512. The elastic member 513 causes the retaining strip 512 to have a tendency to rotate towards the teeth 310. Among them, the elastic member 513 can be a spring or a torsion spring or other elastic materials or structures that can cause the retaining strip 512 to have a rotational tendency.

[0058] When the retaining strip 512 abuts against the teeth 310, the movable ring 510 can only move upward along the guide post 300. The position of the control knob corresponds to the position of the retaining strip 512, and the control knob is rotatably connected to the movable ring 510. Both ends of the connecting rope 515 are respectively connected to the retaining strip 512 and the control knob. Rotate the control knob to pull the retaining strip 512 away from the teeth 310 against the elastic force of the elastic member 513 through the connecting rope 515. During use, first reverse-rotate the control knob 514 to separate the retaining strip 512 from the teeth 310. At this time, the caliper 500 can be controlled to move upward; after the caliper 500 moves to the uppermost position, release the control knob 514, and then slowly push the caliper 500 downward until the caliper 500 moves to the designated position. At this time, after releasing the caliper 500, the caliper 500 remains in this position (utilizing the abutting friction force between the retaining strip 512 and the teeth 310). When the stretching pliers 420 move upward, the stretching pliers 420 cannot continue to move upward after abutting against the caliper 500 (the retaining strip 512 abuts against the teeth 310, making the stretching pliers 420 and the caliper 500 unable to move upward).

[0059] A plurality of jigs 200 may be provided, and the plurality of jigs 200 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the workbench 100. A plurality of clamping portions 421 are provided on the stretching tongs 420, and the plurality of clamping portions 421 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of jigs 200. The cooperation between the plurality of clamping portions 421 and the plurality of jigs 200 can simultaneously test a plurality of workpieces 600, thereby improving the test efficiency.

[0060] The vulcanized rubber or thermoplastic rubber stretching caliper device disclosed in this embodiment can be driven by a motor. Specifically, the motor is installed on the top of the workbench 100, and the motor is in transmission connection with the threaded rod 410. The contact switch is installed on the caliper 500. When the stretching tongs 420 abut against the caliper 500, the stretching tongs 420 trigger the contact switch and the motor stops working.

[0061] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present application and are not used to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, various changes and modifications can be made to the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
