Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of measurement technology, specifically providing an internal thread diameter measuring device, which is particularly useful for convenient, fast and high-precision measurement of the mean diameter of large-sized internal thread workpieces with internal threads ranging from 300mm to 500mm. Background Technology
[0002] Existing thread scanners can be used for inspection, but they can only calibrate the pitch diameter of internal threads from 0 to 150 mm, and cannot measure the pitch diameter of large-sized internal threads. If a horizontal length measuring instrument is used, it can only measure up to 300 mm, and issues such as workpiece weight and inspection methods make the process inconvenient, inefficient, difficult to operate, and risky of damaging the machine. Using a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) requires a matching dedicated probe and measurement program, which is expensive and inefficient. To overcome these shortcomings, a measuring device is designed to inspect large-sized internal thread workpieces, achieving convenient, fast, and high-precision measurement of the pitch diameter of (300-500) mm internal thread workpieces. This measuring device is low in manufacturing cost, simple to operate, and achieves the required measurement accuracy. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings and deficiencies of existing technologies by providing a simple, rationally designed, and easy-to-use measuring device for large-size internal thread workpieces. It employs a comparative measurement method, using a length measuring machine to adjust the distance between the measuring heads on both sides of the device to the nominal value of the mean diameter of the threaded workpiece being measured. The measuring device is then placed within the internal threaded workpiece for data analysis and comparison. This design is simple in structure, easy to install, and convenient to store.

[0007] The rear end of the main housing 6 is provided with a mounting base. One end of the adapter is adapted and fixedly connected to the mounting base, and the other end of the adapter can be connected and fixed or disassembled and separated from the detachable probe 10.
[0008] When the sliding probe 7 is pushed inward and slides, it will cause the L-shaped lever to swing, which will cause the connecting rod to move in tandem and drive the extension rod to move vertically, thus causing the dial indicator probe to move. The dial indicator outputs the displacement amount, which can be used to characterize the displacement amount of the sliding probe 7. The measurement value can be obtained by combining the distance between the sliding probe 7 and the detachable probe 10.
[0009] Furthermore, the lower end of the extension rod housing 3 is threadedly connected to the upper end of the main housing 6.
[0010] Furthermore, the rear end of the main housing 6 is integrally formed with the mounting base.
[0011] Furthermore, the mounting base and the adapter base are connected by a thread.
[0012] Furthermore, the detachable probe is a component comprising multiple detachable probes of different lengths, adaptable to thread inspection of different diameters.
[0013] Furthermore, the spring is a helical spring and is sleeved on the sliding probe.
[0014] Furthermore, the connecting rod and the extension rod are threaded together, and the total length of the connecting rod and the extension rod can be adjusted by rotating the extension rod.
[0015] Furthermore, the dial indicator is a digital dial indicator.
[0016] Adjust the distance between the probes on both sides of the measuring device to the nominal value of the pitch diameter of the internal thread workpiece being measured using a length measuring machine. Adjust the reading of the dial indicator to "zero". Then place the measuring device on the pitch diameter of the internal thread being measured and use the dial indicator to obtain a measurement value. This actual measurement value can characterize or, through calibration, the pitch diameter value of the internal thread workpiece can be obtained.
[0017] The advantages of this utility model are: the structure is simple and reasonable, it changes the traditional measurement concept, and uses a comparative measurement method to measure the mean diameter of large-sized internal thread workpieces. It can be adjusted to any range, and the operation is simple, convenient, fast and high-precision. Attached Figure Description
