DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0020] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with 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. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0021] An embodiment of the present invention is as follows Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, support feet 2 with the same height are connected below the workbench 1. A first slide rail 3 is installed on the midline of the top of the workbench 1 along the length direction. A second slide rail 4 symmetrically arranged with respect to the first slide rail 3 is installed on the right side of the first slide rail 3. A motor assembly 5 is installed on the first slide rail 3. The motor assembly 5 includes a trapezoidal lead screw 52 at the output end of the motor 51 and a processing nut 53 installed on the trapezoidal lead screw 52. A dial indicator 6 installed on the first slide rail 3 is arranged at the end of the trapezoidal lead screw 52. A thrust gauge 10 is installed on the second slide rail 4. A position adjustment mechanism 12 is connected below the thrust gauge 10. After the thrust gauge applies a force to the motor, the axial displacement generated between the processing nut and the trapezoidal lead screw is displayed on the dial indicator on the right side. The overall structure is simple, the production cost is low, the operation is convenient, and the detection efficiency is improved.

[0022] At least two groups of first sliders 31 are arranged on the first slide rail 3. A first bracket 7 and a third bracket 8 are respectively fixed to the tops of the first sliders 31. The motor 51 is installed on the top of the first bracket 7, and the dial indicator 6 is installed on the top of the third bracket 8, which is convenient for adjusting the positions of the motor 51 and the dial indicator 6 to meet the testing of lead screws of different specifications. A second bracket 9 fixed to the workbench 1 is arranged between the first bracket 7 and the third bracket 8.

[0023] A U-shaped groove is provided at the top of the second bracket 9 to position the processing nut 53, ensuring that the processing nut 53 will not shift during the test and affect the test results.

[0024] Second sliders 41 are symmetrically installed on the second slide rail 4. A support plate 11 is connected to the tops of the second sliders 41. The top of the support plate 11 is fixedly connected to the thrust gauge 10. A threaded push rod 101 is connected to the side of the thrust gauge 10 close to the motor 51. Specifically, the thrust gauge 10 adopts a digital display thrust gauge with a specification of SF2-500N, ensuring an error of ±0.5% and real-time displaying the magnitude of the force applied to the motor assembly 5.

[0025] A rectangular through-hole is formed on the workbench 1 between the second slide rails 4 for installing the position adjusting mechanism 12. The position adjusting mechanism 12 includes a lead screw assembly installed at the bottom of the support plate 11. The end of the lead screw assembly is connected to a hand crank 13 located on the side of the workbench 1. By manually rotating the hand crank 13 by the staff, the position adjusting mechanism 12 is displaced horizontally to drive the thrust gauge 10 to move on the second slide rail 4.

[0026] A positioning hole 54 is formed at one end of the motor 51 away from the trapezoidal lead screw 52. The push rod 101 of the thrust gauge 10 is coaxially installed with the positioning hole 54. During the movement of the thrust gauge 10, the push rod 101 abuts against the deep part of the positioning hole 54 on the motor 51, which is convenient for adapting to the testing of motor lead screws of different specifications and improving the testing response speed.

[0027] The working principle of this embodiment: Install the processing nut to be tested on the trapezoidal lead screw of the motor. The processing nut is clamped on the second bracket. Adjust the first bracket according to the position of the motor to meet the installation conditions. At the same time, make the detection head of the dial indicator contact the end of the trapezoidal lead screw and the reading shows 0. Manually rotate the hand crank to adjust the position of the thrust gauge, so that the push rod extends into the positioning hole and contacts the motor. The thrust gauge sets the magnitude of the applied force and acts on the motor. The axial displacement generated between the processing nut and the trapezoidal lead screw is displayed on the dial indicator to complete the test.
