Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of artillery testing, in particular to a device for testing the recoil of artillery. Background Art
[0002] When a cannon is fired, the barrel and its attached parts generate a force opposite to the projectile's direction of motion, known as recoil. In a rigid mount, recoil acts directly on the mount through the trunnions. In a flexible mount, the barrel and mount are connected by a recoil mechanism, which dissipates and stores recoil energy and returns the recoiled parts to their original position, mitigating the impact of recoil on the mount. Recoil is a critical design parameter for artillery weapon systems. Existing recoil measurement methods typically involve installing pressure and displacement sensors on the recoil brake and then calculating them using formulas. However, the accuracy of the results cannot be verified. For compact guns, the space for sensor installation is limited. Given these issues, a device for measuring recoil is needed.

[0024] In order to better understand the purpose, structure and function of the present invention, the present invention is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] like Figures 1-9 As shown, a device for testing recoil force of the present invention includes: a test bench 1; a strain gauge 2; a support frame 3; a trunnion-like device 4; a connecting frame 5; a screw 6; a pressure cap 7; a pressure plate 8; a square steel bracket 9; a pressure seat 10; a left arc plate 11; a right arc plate 12; and a pressure sensor 13. Among them, the test bench 1 is the bench used when the artillery is fired; the strain gauge 2 is attached to the maximum stress point of the test bench 1; the support frame 3 is a welded structure, which is welded into a frame with sufficient rigidity according to the stress characteristics of the artillery. The front end of the support frame 3 is provided with a round hole for convenient insertion of the screw 6, and the rear end is provided with a thread that cooperates with the screw 6. The round hole at the front end and the threaded hole at the rear end need to be processed after welding to ensure the coaxiality of the two, so as to ensure that the screw 6 can be smoothly screwed in from the front end to the rear end; the front end of the screw 6 is hexagonal, which is convenient for tools to grab, the middle part is a threaded rod, and the rear end has an internal thread, which cooperates with the pressure cap 7; the end of the pressure cap is flat, and contacts with the pressure sensor 13 when force is applied, increasing the contact area to prevent the pressure sensor 13 from being crushed; the tail is an external thread, which cooperates with the screw 6.
[0026] The pressure plate 8 is a square sheet with a circular hole in the center for inserting the pressure seat 10. The square steel bracket 9 is a standard part. The pressure seat 10 is a stepped column with a hole drilled at the rear end to reduce weight. Two pressure plates 8 are placed one behind the other, with four square steel brackets 9 welded around them. The pressure seat 10 is inserted into the circular holes of the two pressure plates 8, and then welded around the holes to form the connecting frame 5.
[0027] Since only the rear semicircle of the left and right trunnions bears the recoil during actual shooting, the left and right circular arc plates 11 and 12 used in the trunnion-like structure are semicircular structures. The left and right circular arc plates 11 and 12 are welded to both sides of the connecting frame 5. After welding, to ensure the coaxiality of the left and right circular arc plates 11 and 12, they need to be processed under the same reference after welding, and threaded holes are provided on the periphery for connection to the test bench 1. The processed left and right circular arc plates are guaranteed to be completely consistent with the left and right trunnions in terms of size, hardness, surface roughness and precision. The small cylindrical surface of the pressure seat 10 is processed into an external thread to facilitate cooperation with the pressure sensor 13. To ensure that the applied force is evenly distributed on the left and right circular arc plates 11 and 12, the external thread on the pressure seat 10 must be ensured to be in the center of the device after processing, and the axis is perpendicular to the end faces of the left and right circular arc plates 11 and 12. The above constitutes the trunnion-like device 4.
[0028] The basic implementation process is as follows:
[0029] Working process:
[0030] Step 1: The left arc plate 11 and the right arc plate 12 on the trunnion-like shaft 4 replace the trunnion and are threadedly connected to the left and right sides of the test bench 1;
[0031] Step 2: Fix the support frame 3 with sufficient rigidity to both sides of the test bench 1 through screws to ensure that the loading force is consistent with the recoil force of the gun;
[0032] Step 3: Attach the strain gauge 2 to the left and right sides of the test bench 1, screw the screw 6 into the support frame 3, and connect the pressure cap 7 to the tail of the screw 6 with a thread. Continue to screw the screw 6 to make the pressure cap 7 and the pressure sensor 13 in close contact, simulating the recoil force, and obtaining the relationship between the recoil force and the strain.
[0033] Step 4: During the actual shooting process, the test bench 1, strain gauge 2, and the position of the strain gauge remain unchanged. According to the strain size, the corresponding recoil value is read on the curve in the above step 3. At this point, the recoil can be simply obtained.
[0034] The recoil test device proposed in this embodiment can derive the recoil from the curve according to the strain value; the correctness of the theoretical calculation can also be verified based on this curve, providing a strong guarantee for the design and shooting reliability.
[0035] Although the embodiments of the present invention are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art may make several modifications and improvements without departing from the principles of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements should also be considered to fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
