[0029] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 1 is a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of a pendulum potential energy testing device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 2 yes Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the pendulum potential energy testing device 100 from another perspective. An embodiment of the utility model provides a pendulum potential energy testing device 100, which includes a base 10, a first bracket 20, a rotating shaft 30 and a first test assembly 40. The base 10 is used to be set on a support surface, and the first bracket 20 is set on the base 10. The rotating shaft 30 is rotatably connected to the first bracket 20 and is used to connect one end of the pendulum. The first test assembly 40 includes a sliding structure 41 and a sensing structure 42, the sliding structure 41 is slidably connected to the base 10, and the sensing structure 42 is installed on the sliding structure 41 and is used to abut against the other end of the pendulum to make the pendulum in a horizontal state.

[0030] Specifically, the support surface can be selected as the ground, a wall or the surface of other equipment. The axis of relative rotation between the rotating shaft 30 and the first bracket 20 is horizontal. It is understandable that when the pendulum is in a horizontal state, the sensing structure 42 can accurately obtain the gravity of the pendulum, and then accurately calculate the parameters such as the torque, initial potential energy, striking center distance and striking speed of the pendulum according to the length of the pendulum. In this embodiment, in order to improve the accuracy of the test, the abutment point of the sensing structure 42 and the pendulum and the connection position of the rotating shaft 30 and the pendulum are located in the same horizontal plane, thereby ensuring that the state of the pendulum when it is installed on the rotating shaft 30 and abuts against the sensing structure 42 is horizontal.

[0031] By setting a first bracket 20 and a rotating shaft 30 that are rotatably connected, the rotating shaft 30 is connected to one end of the pendulum, and a sensing structure 42 is set, and the sensing structure 42 is connected to the other end of the pendulum, the pendulum is in a horizontal state, so that the gravity of the pendulum can be obtained through the sensor, so as to further calculate parameters such as the torque, initial potential energy, striking center distance and striking speed of the pendulum. The test efficiency is high and the error is small. At the same time, a sliding structure 41 is set, and the sliding structure 41 can drive the sensing structure 42 to slide relative to the base 10, so as to adapt to the test of pendulums of different lengths, thereby improving the versatility of the test.

[0032] In one embodiment of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , Figure 3 yes Figure 1 The schematic diagram shows the structure of the base 10 and the first test assembly 40 in a disassembled state. The base 10 is provided with a slide groove 101, and the sliding structure 41 slidably engages with the slide groove 101. The slide groove 101 extends horizontally and perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the rotating shaft 30 relative to the first bracket 20. This arrangement ensures that the slide groove 101 extends parallel to the horizontal extension direction of the pendulum after it is mounted on the rotating shaft 30. This allows the sliding structure 41 to slide within the slide groove 101 to change the position of the sensing structure 42, positioning it at the bottom side of the pendulum away from the rotating shaft 30, thereby accommodating the testing of pendulums of varying lengths.

[0033] In one embodiment of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The sliding structure 41 includes a first slider 411, which abuts the top surface of the base 10 and extends into the slide groove 101. The sensing structure 42 is mounted on the first slider 411. Specifically, the top surface of the base 10 is horizontal. The first slider 411 abuts the top surface of the base 10 and extends into the slide groove 101. This not only enables relative sliding of the sensing structure 42 and the base 10, but also restricts the vertical movement of the sensing structure 42 relative to the base 10, causing the pendulum to be unable to maintain a horizontal state, thereby affecting the test results.

[0034] In one embodiment of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3The sliding structure 41 includes a second slider 412 and a locking member 413. The second slider 412 abuts the bottom surface of the base 10 and extends into the slide groove 101. The first slider 411 and the second slider 412 are opposite and separated by a distance. The locking member 413 connects the first slider 411 and the second slider 412. This configuration allows the locking member 413 to lock the first slider 411 and the second slider 412, limiting their vertical movement relative to the base 10, thereby ensuring test accuracy. Furthermore, the sliding structure 41 is relatively simple and easy to assemble and disassemble, which helps reduce costs.

[0035] In one embodiment of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The first slider 411 is provided with a through-hole 4111, and the second slider 412 is provided with a threaded hole 4121. The locking member 413 passes through the through-hole 4111 and is threadedly engaged with the threaded hole 4121. This arrangement facilitates adjustment of the tightening force between the first and second sliders 411, 412, and the base 10 via the locking member 413, thereby adjusting the friction and reducing the risk of loosening leading to inaccurate test results. Furthermore, the locking member 413 passes through the through-hole 4111 and is threadedly engaged with the threaded hole 4121, thereby mounting the first and second sliders 411, 412 on the base 10. Both the mounting method and structure are relatively simple.

[0036] In one embodiment of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The pendulum potential energy testing device 100 includes a ruler (not shown) mounted on the base 10, with the ruler extending in a direction parallel to the direction of the chute 101. By placing the ruler on the base 10, a worker can determine the length of the pendulum by reading the ruler, thereby facilitating the calculation of parameters such as the pendulum's torque, initial potential energy, striking center distance, and striking speed.

[0037] Specifically, the pendulum potential energy testing device 100 also includes a console 53, which houses a controller electrically connected to the sensor structure 42. A worker can read the scale and input the vertical value into the console 53. The controller then calculates parameters such as the hammer's torque, initial potential energy, striking center distance, and striking speed based on pre-set formulas. This arrangement effectively improves testing efficiency.

[0038] In one embodiment of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3The sensing structure 42 includes a force sensor 421 and a support rod 422. The force sensor 421 is fixed to the sliding structure 41. One end of the support rod 422 is connected to the force sensor 421, and the other end of the support rod 422 is used to abut the pendulum. With this arrangement, the weight of the pendulum can act on the force sensor 421 through the support rod 422, allowing the force sensor 421 to detect the weight of the pendulum.

[0039] In this embodiment, the fulcrum where the support rod 422 abuts against the pendulum is located on the same horizontal plane as the connection position where the pendulum is connected to the rotating shaft 30. In other embodiments, the support rod 422 can also be configured to be retractable to accommodate pendulums of different shapes.

[0040] In this embodiment, the contact surface 4221 between the support rod 422 and the pendulum is an arc surface, which can reduce the risk of the pendulum being damaged.

[0041] In one embodiment of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , Figure 4 yes Figure 1 The figure shows a cross-sectional view of the first bracket 20, the rotating shaft 30, and related components. The first bracket 20 defines a mounting hole 201. The pendulum potential energy testing device 100 includes a bearing 51, the outer ring of which is secured within the mounting hole 201, and the inner ring of which is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 30. This arrangement, connecting the rotating shaft 30 to the first bracket 20 via the bearing 51, reduces friction experienced during relative rotation between the rotating shaft 30 and the first bracket 20, thereby further improving test accuracy.

[0042] In one embodiment of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 The number of the bearings 51 is two, and the two bearings 51 are spaced apart and arranged in the mounting hole 201. Such an arrangement can improve the stability of the connection between the rotating shaft 30 and the first bracket 20, and can better bear the load of the pendulum.

[0043] In one embodiment of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The pendulum potential energy testing device 100 includes a second bracket 60 and a second test assembly 70. The second bracket 60 is disposed on the base 10. The second test assembly 70 includes an encoder 71, which is mounted on the second bracket 60 and electrically connected to the controller. The encoder 71 is provided with a relatively rotatable connecting shaft 711, which is used to connect to one end of the pendulum. When the pendulum swings relative to the encoder 71, the encoder 71 sends an electrical signal to the controller, and the controller determines the swing period of the pendulum based on the electrical signal.

[0044] Specifically, during the test, one end of the pendulum is first installed on the connecting shaft 711, and then the angle is set to zero through the console 53 in a stationary state. By observing the angle value on the console 53, the pendulum is manually pulled up to about 5 degrees and then released. The pendulum can swing around the connecting shaft 711 of the encoder 71. After the pendulum completes the set number of swings, the swing period of the pendulum can be calculated through the timing of the controller, thereby eliminating the need for manual timing and counting, avoiding errors caused by manual testing, and improving the test accuracy of the swing period.

[0045] In one embodiment of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the encoder 71 is fixed to one side of the second bracket 60 in the horizontal direction, and a reinforcing rib 61 is provided on the side of the second bracket 60 facing away from the encoder 71. It is understandable that, due to the need to reserve sufficient swing space for the pendulum, the second bracket 60 is usually set to have a higher height relative to the base 10, and the weight of the pendulum is generally large, which can easily lead to loosening between the second bracket 60 and the base 10, or deformation of the second bracket 60, or deformation of the connecting shaft 711 of the encoder 71, affecting the reliability of the test results of the pendulum's swing period. By providing a reinforcing rib 61 on the side of the second bracket 60 facing away from the encoder 71, the structural strength of the second bracket 60 can be improved, and the test reliability of the pendulum's swing period can be improved.

[0046] In one embodiment of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The reinforcing rib 61 extends from the top to the bottom of the second bracket 60 and is connected to the base 10. This arrangement can effectively improve the connection strength between the second bracket 60 and the base 10 and reduce the risk of loosening of the second bracket 60 and the base 10.

[0047] In one embodiment of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The pendulum potential energy testing device 100 includes a plurality of support legs 52 mounted on the base 10 and capable of vertical movement relative to the base 10. The plurality of support legs 52 are configured to abut against the support surface. This arrangement facilitates adjustment of the levelness of the base 10 to ensure accurate testing.

[0048] In one embodiment of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The pendulum potential energy testing device 100 includes a level (not shown) mounted on the base 10. This arrangement allows the user to determine the levelness of the base 10 by observing the level, thus avoiding the possibility of significant errors in the pendulum test results when the base 10 is not level. The user can adjust the height of the support legs 52 based on the level's display to level the base 10.

[0049] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various modifications can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by a person skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention. In addition, the embodiments of the present invention and the features of the embodiments can be combined with each other unless there is a conflict.
