[0024] In use: Place the workpiece to be tested on the rubber block 5 above the placement plate 4, drive the second electric push rod 20 to drive the second column 8 to descend. As the second column 8 descends, the second connecting plate 10 falls down, and the rubber block 5 below the second connecting plate 10 contacts the upper end of the workpiece, applying pressure to the workpiece to achieve workpiece clamping. The placement plate 4 and the support base 3 are connected by the guide rod 22 and the compression spring 23, so that the placement plate 4 has a buffering effect.

[0027] Working principle: The workpiece to be tested is first placed on the rubber block 5 above the placement plate 4. The second electric push rod 20 drives the second column 8 to descend. As the second column 8 descends, the second connecting plate 10 falls down, and the rubber block 5 below the second connecting plate 10 contacts the upper end of the workpiece, applying pressure to the workpiece to achieve workpiece clamping. The rubber block 5 changes accordingly when it comes into contact with the workpiece and is pressed, fully adhering to the surface of the clamped workpiece. The placement plate 4 and the support base 3 are connected by the guide rod 22 and the compression spring 23, so that the placement plate 4 has a buffering effect. The pressure sensor 18 measures the pressure applied to the workpiece, which facilitates the control of the clamping force and protects the clamped workpiece from deformation due to excessive clamping. The motor 12 drives the lead screw 13 to rotate. As the lead screw 13 rotates, it drives the first column 7 to slide along the slide groove 6, translating the clamping mechanism. The first electric push rod 15 drives the second connecting plate 10 to extend and retract, changing the extension length of the second connecting plate 10, which can meet the clamping requirements of workpieces of different sizes.
