The horizontal adjustment plate 430 and the base plate are fastened by bolts and nuts passing through the strip-shaped hole and the through hole.

[0041] Furthermore, the displacement detection assembly 500 includes a connection block 510. The connection block 510 is connected above the air bearing of the main shaft 100. The connection block 510 is connected to a mounting plate 520 located on its side. The mounting plate 520 is connected to the connection block 510 in a height-adjustable manner, and the structure of its height adjustment can refer to the horizontal adjustment plate 430, which will not be elaborated here. A distance measuring sensor 530 located below the carrier plate 310 is provided on the side of the mounting plate 520 facing the pressure application and pressure detection assembly 400.

The gas circuit system includes a foot valve 620 for controlling the on-off of the pipeline 610 of the gas circuit system. The foot valve 620 is arranged on the ground. At the same time, in order to facilitate the control of the pressure applied during the test, a manual pressure regulating valve 630 is also provided on the pipeline 610 of the gas circuit system. Further, the weighing sensor of the pressure application and pressure detection assembly 400 and the distance measuring sensor 530 of the displacement detection assembly 500 are connected to the display device 700.
