Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of compression testing technology, and in particular relates to a compression testing fixture for carbon fiber pultruded whole plate in carbon fiber material testing. Background Technology

[0002] Carbon fiber material testing refers to the scientific and systematic testing and evaluation of the properties of carbon fibers and their composites to ensure they meet specific application requirements. Carbon fiber material testing includes mechanical property testing, thermal property testing, and chemical property testing. Mechanical property testing includes tensile strength, compressive strength, flexural strength, shear strength, and impact strength, used to evaluate the load-bearing capacity and deformation capacity of carbon fiber materials. When testing compressive strength, reinforcing sheets are attached to the top and bottom sides of the carbon fiber pultruded sheet to form a specimen, and then a compression test is performed on the specimen. Compression testing fixtures are required for the compression test.

[0003] Current compression testing fixtures are difficult to position the specimen stably, and specimen slippage is likely to occur, thus affecting the experimental data. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a compression test fixture for carbon fiber pultrusion molding whole plate in carbon fiber material testing, so as to solve the problem that the current compression test fixture is difficult to stably position the specimen and is prone to specimen slippage, which affects the experimental data.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a carbon fiber pultrusion molding whole plate compression test fixture for carbon fiber material testing, comprising an upper connecting assembly, an upper clamping assembly, and a lower clamping assembly. The upper side of the upper connecting assembly is connected to the testing machine, and the lower side of the upper connecting assembly is connected to the upper clamping assembly. The upper connecting assembly can drive the upper clamping assembly to move closer to or away from the lower clamping assembly. The upper clamping assembly and the lower clamping assembly are directly opposite each other. Each of the upper clamping assembly and the lower clamping assembly includes a base, a driving component, a movable clamp, and a fixed clamp. The movable clamp and the fixed clamp are arranged horizontally. The driving component is mounted on the base, and the fixed clamp is fixed on the base. The driving component is used to drive the movable clamp to move closer to or away from the fixed clamp. The fixed clamp and the movable clamp are used to clamp both sides of the specimen.

[0006] Furthermore, a positioning plate is provided on the side of the fixed chuck near the movable chuck, and a positioning pin is threadedly connected to the positioning plate. The moving direction of the positioning pin is perpendicular to the moving direction of the movable chuck. The thickness of the positioning plate in the clamping direction of the fixed chuck and the movable chuck is less than the thickness of the specimen. The positioning pin is used to position the specimen in the front-back direction.

[0007] Furthermore, the base of the lower clamping assembly is provided with a guide rod, and the base of the upper clamping assembly is provided with a vertical guide hole, and the guide rod is slidably connected in the guide hole.

[0008] Furthermore, the upper connecting assembly includes a top plate and a connecting structure. The top plate is fixed on the base of the upper clamping assembly, and the connecting structure is used to connect the top plate and the crossbeam of the testing machine. The bottom of the top plate can abut against the top of the specimen.

[0009] Furthermore, the connecting structure includes a connecting rod and a pressure plate, the lower side of the pressure plate being connected to the upper side of the top plate; the upper side of the connecting rod being connected to the crossbeam of the testing machine, the lower side of the connecting rod being provided with a spherical pressure head, and the upper side of the pressure plate being provided with a groove matching the spherical pressure head.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a first gasket, a second gasket, and a third gasket, wherein multiple sets of the first gasket, the second gasket, and the third gasket are provided and have different thicknesses; the first gasket is used to be installed on the side of the movable chuck near the fixed chuck, the second gasket is used to be installed on the side of the fixed chuck near the movable chuck, and the third gasket is used to be installed at the lower end of the base of the upper clamping assembly.

[0011] Furthermore, the connecting structure is located at the center of the top plate.

[0012] Furthermore, the driving component is a hydraulic cylinder, which is connected to a hydraulic pump, and a pressure gauge is connected to the hydraulic pump.

[0013] The working principle of this technical solution is as follows: The specimen is placed vertically between the fixed chuck and the movable chuck, and the positioning pin is adjusted according to the width of the specimen, with the rear side of the specimen abutting against the positioning pin, so that the specimen is on the axis of the testing machine in the front-back direction. Different thicknesses of the first and second shims can be selected according to the thickness of the specimen, thus ensuring that the specimen is on the axis of the testing machine in the left-right direction. Different thicknesses of the third shim can be selected according to the length of the specimen, thus ensuring that the movable and fixed chucks can clamp the specimen to the maximum extent on both sides. First, the drive mechanism of the lower clamping assembly is activated, causing the drive mechanism to move the movable chuck towards the fixed chuck until the lower side of the specimen is clamped. Then, the testing machine is started, and the testing machine drives the pressure plate and top plate downwards via the connecting rod. The top plate drives the base of the upper clamping assembly downwards, and the base drives the movable and fixed chucks of the upper clamping assembly downwards until the top plate abuts against the upper side of the specimen. Then, the drive mechanism of the upper clamping assembly is activated, causing the drive mechanism to move the movable chuck towards the fixed chuck until the specimen is clamped.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this technical solution are as follows:

[0015] ① This technical solution avoids slippage of the specimen during the experiment by clamping it on both sides.

[0016] ②This technical solution, by setting first and second shims of different thicknesses, can adapt to specimens of different thicknesses and ensure that the center of the specimen is on the axis.

[0017] ③ This technical solution ensures that the movable clamp and the fixed clamp can clamp the specimen to the maximum extent by setting third shims of different thicknesses.

[0018] ④ This technical solution ensures that the pressure can automatically press down along the axis of the testing machine during the compression process by setting a spherical pressure head on the connecting rod and a groove on the pressure plate.

[0019] ⑤ This technical solution allows for real-time monitoring of pressure by setting a pressure gauge, thereby ensuring consistent pressure application each time.

[0020] ⑥ This technical solution, by setting guide rods and guide holes, can ensure the accuracy of the vertical movement of the upper clamping component.

[0021] ⑦ This technical solution, by setting a positioning pin, can adjust the position of the specimen in the front-back direction, ensuring that the specimen is on the axis of the testing machine in the front-back direction, and can adapt to specimens of different widths.
