Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of drag chain detection, in particular to a drag chain tensile test device. Background Art
[0002] Drag chains are suitable for use in situations with reciprocating motion. They can pull and protect built-in cables, oil pipes, air pipes, water pipes, etc., to extend the service life of wires, cables, liquid and gas hoses and reduce consumption. Therefore, during the production process of drag chains, it is necessary to test the performance of the drag chains after production. When checking the strength of drag chains, existing drag chain testing devices mainly fix one end of the drag chain on the instrument, and then start the power device to stretch the drag chain, thereby judging the bearing capacity and strength of the drag chain.
[0003] However, when the power device pulls the drag chain during the tensile test, the extension and compression processes of the drag chain cannot be switched smoothly. When the drag chain moves to the end position in the extension or compression direction, the drag chain has an end speed along the corresponding extension or compression direction. When the power device switches to the process of being able to drive the drag chain to move along the compression or extension direction, the tensile test process of the drag chain is stagnant, resulting in the drag chain not undergoing an effective tensile test. The tensile test data of the drag chain is not accurate and comprehensive, which is not convenient for continuous tensile testing and affects the tensile efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] In response to the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides a drag chain tensile testing device, in which the drag chain to be tested can switch smoothly and continuously between extension and compression, eliminating the possibility of the drag chain to be tested being stuck during the tensile test. The tensile test data of the drag chain to be tested is accurate and comprehensive, facilitating continuous tensile testing and improving tensile efficiency.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] The utility model provides a drag chain tensile test device, comprising a base plate connected to one end of the drag chain to be tested, a moving part connected to the other end of the drag chain to be tested, a rotating shaft connected to the moving part, and a driving mechanism for driving the rotating shaft to rotate;
[0007] When a tensile test is performed, the driving mechanism drives the rotating shaft to rotate in one direction, so that the moving member continuously moves back and forth along the tensile direction of the drag chain to be tested.
[0008] Among them, the rotating shaft is provided with a guide channel, one end of the moving part cooperates with the guide channel, and when the rotating shaft rotates unidirectionally, it drives one end of the moving part to slide synchronously in the guide channel, driving the moving part to continuously move back and forth along the stretching direction of the drag chain to be tested.
[0009] Wherein, the bottom plate is installed with a guide rail, the moving part is slidably matched with the guide rail, and when the driving mechanism drives the rotating shaft to rotate, the moving part slides on the guide rail.
[0010] The guide channel includes a first guide portion and a second guide portion, two ends of the first guide portion and the second guide portion are correspondingly connected, and one end of the moving member cooperates with the first guide portion and the second guide portion;
[0011] When one end of the moving member slides in the first guide portion, the two ends of the towline to be tested are brought closer to each other to test the compression process of the towline to be tested;
[0012] When one end of the moving member slides in the second guide portion, the two ends of the towline to be tested move away from each other, so as to test the elongation process of the towline to be tested.
[0013] Wherein, the bottom plate is installed with a push-pull force sensor, and the push-pull force sensor is connected to the other end of the drag chain to be tested;
[0014] When the moving member continuously moves back and forth along the stretching direction of the towline to be measured, the push-pull force sensor obtains the push force or the pull force from the towline to be measured.
[0015] The bottom plate is provided with a protective cover, the drag chain to be tested, the moving parts, the rotating shaft and the driving mechanism are all located inside the protective cover, and the bottom plate is also provided with a heater and a temperature sensor located inside the protective cover;
[0016] The heater is used to adjust the ambient temperature inside the shield; the temperature sensor is used to detect the ambient temperature inside the shield, so as to facilitate the tensile test of the towline to be tested under different ambient temperatures.
[0017] Beneficial effects of the utility model:
[0018] In actual application, when conducting a tensile test, the driving mechanism drives the rotating shaft to rotate unidirectionally, so that the moving part continuously moves back and forth along the tensile direction of the drag chain to be tested. The drag chain to be tested can switch between extension and compression smoothly and continuously, eliminating the possibility of the drag chain to be tested being stagnant during the tensile test. The tensile test data of the drag chain to be tested is accurate and comprehensive, which facilitates continuous tensile testing and improves tensile efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
