In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for distinction in description and have no special meaning.

[0034] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, this embodiment provides a clamping tooling for clamping a lumbar fusion cage sample 100 so that the sample 100 can complete a shear force test. In some embodiments, the clamping tooling includes a first clamping member 1 and a second clamping member 3. The first clamping member 1 is provided with a first stop assembly 2; the second clamping member 3 is provided with a second stop assembly 4. The sample 100 can be clamped between the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 3. The first stop assembly 2 is used to stop the sample 100 along the first direction X, and the second stop assembly 4 is used to stop the sample 100 along the opposite direction of the first direction X.

[0035] Specifically, the materials of both the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 3 are polyoxymethylene, and polyoxymethylene has characteristics such as fatigue resistance and wear resistance. In other embodiments, the materials of the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 3 can also be polyacetal, but it is not limited thereto.

[0036] The settings of the first stop assembly 2 and the second stop assembly 4 enable the sample 100 in the clamping tooling to be stopped in the first direction X and the opposite direction of the first direction X when a shear force is applied to the clamping tooling during the shear force test, preventing the sample 100 from slipping out of the clamping tooling, ensuring that the test result is not affected, improving the test success rate, and avoiding the problems of time-consuming, laborious and low test efficiency caused by the need to retest when the sample 100 falls off.

[0037] To make the sample 100 more stable when clamped, the first clamping member 1 is provided with a first groove 11, and the second clamping member 3 is provided with a second groove 31. The first groove 11 and the second groove 31 are arranged opposite to each other, and the two opposite side surfaces of the sample 100 can respectively abut against the first groove 11 and the second groove 31. The provision of the first groove 11 and the second groove 31 enables at least a part of the sample 100 to be placed in the first groove 11 and the second groove 31. Specifically, the shapes of the first groove 11 and the second groove 31 are respectively consistent with the shapes of the corresponding side surfaces of the sample 100.

[0038] To prevent the sample 100 from falling off the clamping tooling along the first direction X, the first stop assembly 2 includes a first protrusion 21, and the first protrusion 21 is used to abut against the sample 100 to stop the sample 100 in the first direction X. In this embodiment, in order to enable the first protrusion 21 to have a certain strength, the height of the first protrusion 21 is 2 mm - 5 mm.

[0039] Furthermore, in order to increase the friction between the first protrusion 21 and the sample 100 and further prevent the sample 100 from falling off the clamping tooling along the first direction X, the side surface of the first protrusion 21 for abutting against the sample 100 is provided with first anti-slip teeth 22.

[0040] Preferably, the first stop assembly 2 further includes a first reinforcing member 23, and the first reinforcing member 23 is arranged on the side of the first protrusion 21 away from the first anti-slip teeth 22. Since the first protrusion 21 serves to stop the sample 100 in the first direction X, the provision of the first reinforcing member 23 increases the strength of the first protrusion 21, preventing the problem that the first protrusion 21 breaks during the process of applying force to the clamping tooling during the shear test, resulting in the sample 100 falling off the clamping tooling. At the same time, the provision of the first reinforcing member 23 improves the service life of the clamping tooling.

[0041] To prevent the sample 100 from falling off the clamping tooling along the opposite direction of the first direction X, the second stop assembly 4 includes a second protrusion 41, and the second protrusion 41 is used to abut against the sample 100 to stop the sample 100 in the opposite direction of the first direction X. In order to enable the second protrusion 41 to have a certain strength, the height of the second protrusion 41 is 2 mm - 5 mm.

[0042] Furthermore, in order to increase the friction between the second protrusion 41 and the sample 100 and further prevent the sample 100 from falling off the clamping tooling along the opposite direction of the first direction X, the side surface of the second protrusion 41 for abutting against the sample 100 is provided with second anti-slip teeth 42.

[0043] Preferably, the second stop assembly 4 further includes a second reinforcing member 43 disposed on a side of the second protrusion 41 away from the second anti-slip teeth 42. Since the second protrusion 41 serves to stop the sample 100 in the opposite direction of the first direction X, the provision of the second reinforcing member 43 increases the strength of the second protrusion 41, preventing the problem that the second protrusion 41 breaks during the application of force to the clamping tooling during the shear test, resulting in the sample 100 falling off the clamping tooling. At the same time, the provision of the second reinforcing member 43 improves the service life of the clamping tooling.

[0044] The first clamping member 1 is provided with a first anti-rotation surface 12, and the second clamping member 3 is provided with a second anti-rotation surface 32. The first anti-rotation surface 12 and the second anti-rotation surface 32 are arranged in parallel. During the shear test, the sample 100 needs to be placed in the clamping tooling, and the clamping tooling needs to be placed in the housing of the shear test equipment. The provision of the first anti-rotation surface 12 and the second anti-rotation surface 32 enables the clamping tooling to be placed more stably in the housing, preventing the clamping tooling from rotating or moving during the shear test after being placed in the housing, thereby affecting the result of the shear test.

[0045] This embodiment also provides a shear test device, including a housing, a testing machine, and a clamping tooling. The clamping tooling can be placed in the housing, and the output end of the testing machine can abut against the housing to apply force to the sample 100 through the housing and the clamping tooling.

[0046] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly explaining the present invention, rather than limiting the implementation manners of the present invention. For those of ordinary skill in the art, various obvious changes, re-adjustments, and substitutions can be made without departing from the protection scope of the present invention. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all the implementation manners here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
