[0027] Ball nut 403 is movably inserted in the inner wall of second cavity 3, and the upper end of ball nut 403 is movably sleeved on the outer end of sliding rod 404, and the end of two-way screw rod 402 away from motor 401 is rotatably connected with the inner wall of second cavity 3.
[0028] Measuring rod 408 is movably inserted in sliding slot 406, sliding sleeve 409 is movably sleeved on the outer wall of sliding rod 404, and sliding sleeve 409 is movably inserted in second cavity 3, and locking bolt 411 is threadedly inserted in the middle end of fixed block 410.
[0029] Driving assembly 5 further includes connecting shaft 53 fixedly arranged at one end of tooth gear 52 to be measured, connecting sleeve 54 is movably sleeved on the outer wall of connecting shaft 53, and the lower end of connecting sleeve 54 is fixedly connected with bottom plate 1, three-jaw chuck 55 is connected with the end of connecting shaft 53 away from tooth gear 52 to be measured, driving gear 56 is connected with the end of three-jaw chuck 55 away from connecting sleeve 54, driving gear 56 is provided with driving rack 57 at the lower end, and driving gear 56 and driving rack 57 are engaged with each other.
[0030] Fixed plate 58 is fixedly arranged on the outer wall of driving rack 57 at the upper end, and driving rack 57 is movably inserted in the middle end of two groups of fixed plates 58.

[0032] The measured rack 51 to be detected is placed between the two groups of fixed blocks 410, and the measured rack 51 is overlapped on the upper end of the sliding sleeve 409. Then the two groups of locking bolts 411 are turned to lock the measured rack 51 between the fixed blocks 410. Then the motor 401 is started to drive the bidirectional lead screw 402 to rotate, and the bidirectional lead screw 402 drives the ball bearing sleeve 403 to slide along the bidirectional lead screw 402. When one of the measuring plates 405 and the measured rack 51 touch, the measuring plate 405 pushes the measured rack 51 to drive the sliding sleeve 409 to slide along the sliding rod 404 until the other end of the measured rack 51 touches the second measuring plate 405. At this time, the measured rack 51 is located between the two measuring plates 405. Then the side in contact with the measured rack 51 of the measuring plate 405 is aligned with the second scale 7 arranged on the bottom plate 1 to measure the length of the measured rack 51. The lower end surface of the first scale 407 and the upper end surface of the sliding sleeve 409 are in the same horizontal plane, so that the width of the measured rack 51 can be measured through the sliding groove 406, so as to measure whether the length and width of the measured rack 51 meet the quality requirements.

Then the cylinder 59 is started to push the cylinder 59 forward, and the extension speed of the cylinder 59 is kept unchanged. The cylinder 59 drives the driving rack 57 to slide along the inner wall of the two fixed plates 58. Since the driving rack 57 and the driving gear 56 are meshed with each other, the driving gear 56 rotates. The driving gear 56 rotates to drive the measured gear 52 to rotate through the fixation of the three-jaw chuck 55. In the process of rotating the measured gear 52, the sliding sleeve 409 is driven to slide along the sliding rod 404 by the measured rack 51. The time required for the sliding sleeve 409 to slide to the maximum distance along the sliding rod 404 is measured by the second scale 7. The maximum distance is the length of the measured rack 51. Whether the gear ratio between the measured rack 51 and the measured gear 52 meets the requirements is measured. When the tooth distance needs to be measured, the measuring rod 408 is inserted between the sliding grooves 406, and the measuring plate 405 slides downward along the sliding groove 406 until the lower end of the measuring rod 408 contacts the upper end of the measured gear 52. The distance between the lower end surface of the measuring rod 408 and the upper end surface of the ball bearing sleeve 403 is measured by the first scale 407. Then the width of the measured rack 51, that is, the diameter of the measured gear 52, is subtracted. Then the width of the measured rack 51 is divided by two, and the length of the radius of the measured gear 52, that is, the tooth distance between the gear center line and the rack center line, is added.
