[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0021] References herein to "embodiments" mean that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiments may be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The appearance of this phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor does it constitute an independent or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive of other embodiments. It is understood, both explicitly and implicitly, by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0022] The following describes in detail the inlay auxiliary clamp and the inlay device provided by the present invention in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0023] See also Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of an embodiment of the inlay auxiliary clip of the present application; Figure 2 yes Figure 1 Schematic top view of Figure 3 yes Figure 1 A partial top view schematic diagram of a mounting auxiliary clamp. The present application provides a mounting auxiliary clamp. The mounting auxiliary clamp includes a main body 1 and a plurality of elastic jaws 2. Each elastic jaw 2 is connected to the main body 1. The elastic jaws 2 are used to clamp the specimen. The number of elastic jaws 2 corresponds to the number of specimens clamped by the mounting auxiliary clamp. For example, when the number of elastic jaws 2 is 5, the mounting auxiliary clamp can clamp 5 specimens at the same time. When the number of elastic jaws 2 is 7, the mounting auxiliary clamp can clamp 7 specimens at the same time.

[0024] Each elastic clamping jaw 2 includes a first clamping portion 21 and a second clamping portion 22 disposed opposite to each other. The sample is located between the first clamping portion 21 and the second clamping portion 22. The first clamping portion 21 and the second clamping portion 22 move relative to each other to drive the elastic clamping jaw 2 to open or close.

[0025] The first clamping portion 21 and the corresponding second clamping portion 22 are both provided with an arc-shaped abutting surface 203. The arc-shaped abutting surface 203 of the first clamping portion 21 and the arc-shaped abutting surface 203 of the second clamping portion 22 are in contact with the two ends of the sample respectively, so that the first clamping portion 21 and the second clamping portion 22 clamp the sample. Compared with other shapes, the arc-shaped abutting surface 203 is provided to contact the sample, which is less likely to damage the surface of the sample. The corresponding arc-shaped abutting surfaces 203 elastically abut against each other. That is, the first clamping portion 21 and the second clamping portion 22 have elastic force. The first clamping portion 21 and the second clamping portion 22 can use elastic force to open the elastic clamping jaws 2, and can also use rebound force to close the elastic clamping jaws 2. It can be understood that the material of the first clamping portion 21 and the second clamping portion 22 is an elastic material, such as spring steel, nickel-titanium alloy, rubber, elastic plastic, etc., which is not limited here.

[0026] When using the inlay auxiliary clamp, the arcuate abutting surface 203 of the first clamping part 21 is separated from the arcuate abutting surface 203 of the second clamping part 22, and the sample is placed between the first clamping part 21 and the second clamping part 22. The first clamping part 21 and the second clamping part 22 are closed and clamp the sample. The rebound force of the first clamping part 21 and the second clamping part 22 can make the arcuate abutting surface 203 of the first clamping part 21 and the arcuate abutting surface 203 of the second clamping part 22 further clamp the sample, so that the sample can be fixed.

[0027] When the inlay auxiliary clamp is applied to the inlay device, the inlay auxiliary clamp is placed in the inlay device. In this application, by arranging a plurality of elastic clamps 2 on the main body 1, the inlay auxiliary clamp can clamp multiple samples at the same time, so that multiple samples can stand stably in the inlay device at the same time, thereby being able to inlay multiple samples at the same time, improving the inlay efficiency, reducing material consumption, and saving costs. In addition, the first clamping portion 21 and the second clamping portion 22 of the elastic clamp 2 have elastic force that can further clamp the sample, so that the sample can be fixed vertically, reducing the possibility of the sample tilting or tipping over, reducing the impact of the sample on subsequent tests, and thus improving work efficiency. At the same time, an arc-shaped abutting surface 203 is provided to contact the sample, which is not easy to cause damage to the surface of the sample.

[0028] The connection method between the plurality of elastic clamping jaws 2 and the main body 1 can be set according to actual conditions and is not limited here. In one embodiment, the plurality of elastic clamping jaws 2 and the main body 1 are integrally formed. In another embodiment, the plurality of elastic clamping jaws 2 are fixed to the main body 1 by methods including, but not limited to, welding, bonding, clamping, screwing, etc.

[0029] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 2Each of the first clamping part 21 and the second clamping part 22 includes a connecting arm 201 and a chuck 202. One end of each connecting arm 201 is connected to the main body 1. The other end of each connecting arm 201 is connected to the corresponding chuck 202. The chuck 202 of the first clamping part 21 and the chuck 202 of the second clamping part 22 respectively contact the two ends of the sample, so that the first clamping part 21 and the second clamping part 22 clamp the sample. An arc-shaped abutting surface 203 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of each chuck 202. That is, the side of each chuck 202 that contacts the sample is the arc-shaped abutting surface 203, which is not easy to damage the surface of the sample.

[0030] The corresponding connecting arm 201 is extended along the tangent direction a of the corresponding arc-shaped abutting surface 203, wherein the tangent direction a is as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown. The connection method of the connecting arm 201 and the chuck 202 can be set according to actual conditions and is not limited here. In one specific embodiment, the connecting arm 201 and the chuck 202 are an integrally formed structure. For example, the chuck 202 may extend to the main body 1 along the tangent direction a of the arc-shaped abutting top surface 203 and be connected to the main body 1, thereby forming the connecting arm 201. Alternatively, the connecting arm 201 may be bent on one side away from the main body 1 to form the chuck 202. In another specific embodiment, the connecting arm 201 is fixedly connected to the chuck 202, and the fixed connection method includes but is not limited to welding, bonding, clamping, screwing, etc.

[0031] The first clamping portion 21 and the corresponding second clamping portion 22 are symmetrical along the outer common tangent line b of the corresponding arc-shaped abutting surface 203 abutting against each other, wherein the outer common tangent line b is as follows: Figure 3 The clamping actions of the first clamping portion 21 and the second clamping portion 22 are relative, so that a balanced force can be applied when clamping the sample, thereby reducing the possibility of deformation of the sample during the clamping process.

[0032] In this way, the first clamping part 21 and the second clamping part 22 are symmetrically arranged, so that the force applied to the sample when the first clamping part 21 and the second clamping part 22 are clamped is evenly distributed, thereby improving the stability and reliability of clamping and improving production efficiency.

[0033] In one embodiment, each chuck 202 is cylindrical. That is, each chuck 202 has a smooth, circular outer circumference. Each arcuate abutment surface 203 corresponds to the circular outer circumference of the corresponding chuck 202. When the chuck 202 applies a clamping force to the specimen, the arcuate abutment surface 203 contacts the specimen, evenly distributing the clamping force across the contact surface. This reduces local deformation or damage to the specimen caused by concentrated clamping force and improves clamping stability.

[0034] The shape of the body 1 can be set according to actual conditions and is not limited here.

[0035] In one embodiment, the cross-section of the body 1 can be triangular, quadrilateral, polygonal, or other irregular shapes. The body 1 includes a mounting surface 12. The side of the body 1 facing the resilient clamping jaws 2 is the mounting surface 12. One end of each connecting arm 201 is connected to the mounting surface 12. The other end of each connecting arm 201 is connected to the corresponding clamping head 202.

[0036] When the mounting surface 12 is a plane, the angle between the direction in which each connecting arm 201 is extended and the mounting surface 12 is less than 60°. In other words, the connecting arm 201 is arranged at an angle to the mounting surface 12. Examples of the angle between the direction in which each connecting arm 201 is extended and the mounting surface 12 include, but are not limited to, 15°, 25°, 30°, 34°, 40°, 45°, 50°, 56°, and the like.

[0037] This arrangement allows the elastic clamping jaws 2 to more effectively resist external interference during use, improving the stability of the overall structure of the mounting aid clamp. Furthermore, the angle between the direction in which the connecting arm 201 is extended and the mounting surface 12 makes the overall structure of the mounting aid clamp more compact. By adjusting the angle between the direction in which the connecting arm 201 is extended and the mounting surface 12, the mounting aid clamp can be adapted to different usage requirements.

[0038] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The annular body 1 is provided with a receiving cavity 11, which provides stable support for the installation of the elastic clamp 2. The elastic clamp 2 is evenly arranged within the receiving cavity 11, providing a uniform clamping force. This arrangement ensures that the specimen is subjected to a balanced force during the clamping process, reducing deviation or damage caused by uneven clamping force, and improving the stability and reliability of the mounting auxiliary clamp.

[0039] Furthermore, since the body 1 is annular, the mounting surface 12 is the inner wall surface of the body 1 facing the accommodating cavity 11. Therefore, the mounting surface 12 is a circular surface. At this time, the angle between the tangent line c at the connection between each connecting arm 201 and the mounting surface 12 and the direction of the corresponding connecting arm 201 is less than 60 degrees, wherein the tangent line c is as follows: Figure 3 The angle between the tangent line c at the connection between each connecting arm 201 and the mounting surface 12 and the extending direction of the corresponding connecting arm 201 includes, but is not limited to, 15°, 25°, 30°, 34°, 40°, 45°, 50°, 56°, etc.

[0040] This arrangement allows the elastic clamping jaw 2 to more effectively resist external interference during use, improving the stability of the overall structure of the mounting aid clamp. Furthermore, the angle between the tangent line c at the connection between the connecting arm 201 and the mounting surface 12 and the direction in which the connecting arm 201 is extended makes the overall structure of the mounting aid clamp more compact. By adjusting the angle between the tangent line c at the connection between the connecting arm 201 and the mounting surface 12 and the direction in which the connecting arm 201 is extended, the clamp can be adapted to different usage requirements.

[0041] In one embodiment, each chuck 202 is a hollow cylinder. That is, each chuck 202 has a smooth, circular outer circumference. Each curved abutment surface 203 corresponds to the circular outer circumference of the corresponding chuck 202. When the chuck 202 applies a clamping force to the specimen, the curved abutment surface 203 contacts the specimen, evenly distributing the clamping force across the contact surface. This reduces local deformation or damage to the specimen caused by concentrated clamping force and improves clamping stability.

[0042] Each hollow cylinder includes a central axis hole 2021 extending therethrough. The inner diameter of the central axis hole 2021 is less than 0.6 mm. The inner diameter of the central axis hole 2021 includes, but is not limited to, 0.1 mm, 0.2 mm, 0.25 mm, 0.3 mm, 0.355 mm, 0.4 mm, 0.45 mm, 0.5 mm, 0.55 mm, 0.5 mm, etc.

[0043] The chuck 202 is provided with a hollow cylinder, so that the shape of the chuck 202 can be set as needed in actual use, thereby being easy to use. The inner diameter of the central axis hole 2021 is set within a reasonable range so that the chuck 202 has sufficient strength and anti-deformation ability.

[0044] In one specific embodiment, the inlay auxiliary clamp includes a main body 1 and five elastic jaws 2. The main body 1 is annular. The main body 1 is provided with a receiving cavity 11. The five elastic jaws 2 are spaced and evenly distributed in the receiving cavity 11. The outer ring diameter of the main body 1 is 30 mm, the height is less than or equal to 15 mm, and the thickness is 0.5 mm. Each elastic jaw 2 includes a connecting arm 201 and a chuck 202. One end of each connecting arm 201 is connected to the main body 1, and the other end of each connecting arm 201 is connected to the corresponding chuck 202. The length of each connecting arm 201 is 5 mm. Each chuck 202 is a hollow cylinder. Each hollow cylinder includes a central axis hole 2021 extending therethrough. The inner diameter of the central axis hole 2021 is 0.5 mm. The thickness of each connecting arm 201 and the corresponding chuck 202 is 0.3 mm.

[0045] Another aspect of the present application provides a setting device, which includes the setting auxiliary clamp according to any of the above embodiments.

[0046] In one embodiment, the mounting device includes a mounting box having a receiving cavity and a mounting auxiliary clamp disposed in the receiving cavity.

[0047] The working principle of the inlay device is to first clamp the sample with an inlay auxiliary clamp, place the inlay auxiliary clamp and the sample together in the accommodating cavity of the inlay box, introduce the inlay powder into the inlay box, use a heating tool to heat the inlay box, and melt the inlay powder after heating. After the inlay powder cools down, the inlay powder, the inlay auxiliary clamp and the sample are solidified into one, so that the sample can be ground and polished, and subsequent metallographic structure and hardness tests can be carried out.

[0048] The terms "first", "second" and "third" in this application are only used for descriptive purposes and should not be understood as indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined as "first", "second" and "third" can explicitly or implicitly include at least one of these features. In the embodiments of the present application, all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back ...) are only used to explain the relative positional relationship, movement, etc. between the various components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication also changes accordingly.
