Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of material mechanics, in particular to an auxiliary device for an ultrasonic hardness tester. Background Art
[0002] Hardness is a very important index in the mechanical properties of materials. Like strength, it is to consider the relationship between the force and deformation of materials. Traditional hardness measurement methods include Brinell, Rockwell, Vickers, Leeb, etc. Among them, Brinell and Rockwell cause greater damage to the surface of the measured object, the Vickers method has a higher cost, and both cannot measure large workpieces. The Leeb hardness tester belongs to indirect measurement and has a large measurement deviation.
[0003] With the development of microprocessor technology, ultrasonic hardness testers have begun to be widely used. The principle of an ultrasonic hardness tester is to make the diamond indenter of the hardness tester contact the surface of the measured workpiece. Under a uniform contact pressure, the resonant frequency of the probe changes with hardness, and the hardness is measured by measuring the change of this frequency. This method causes minimal damage to the measured workpiece and has great superiority compared with other methods.
[0004] However, when measuring the hardness of a pipeline on-site, it is found that the measured values of the ultrasonic hardness tester deviate too much, affecting the judgment of the mechanical properties of the pipeline. Through experiments, the reason for the deviation is that when the ultrasonic hardness tester measures the hardness of the pipeline, the indenter is not vertically placed with the contact surface, resulting in uneven contact pressure, and the measured values are unstable and inaccurate. When the indenter is perpendicular to the contact surface, the measured values are stable and accurate. Summary of the Utility Model
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to ensure that the indenter of the ultrasonic hardness tester is vertically placed with the contact surface when measuring the hardness of a pipeline, and to provide an auxiliary device for an ultrasonic hardness tester.

Above the through hole 2, it is welded to the fixing device 4, and the inner diameter of the fixing device 4 is the same as the diameter of the through hole 2. Four corners of the base 1 are distributed with adjusting oblong holes 3 for the movement and fixed installation of the adjusting screw 55 on the magnetic device 5. There is an n-shaped handle 6 on the upper surface of the base 1, which can facilitate the movement of the whole device.
[0033] The fixing cylinder 41 is a cylinder, and a vertical long hole 42 is distributed at intervals of 90° in the circumferential direction of the fixing cylinder 41. The clamping rod 44 passes through the vertical long hole 42 on the fixing cylinder 41, and a clamping plate 45 is provided at the inner end of the clamping rod 44.
