Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of coating testing, and in particular to a sheet metal coating adhesion tester. Background Technology
[0002] A coating is a solid, continuous film formed by one or more layers applied to a substrate. The coating usually consists of multiple layers, the number of which depends on the requirements of the object being coated. Generally, it includes a primer layer, an intermediate layer, and a topcoat layer. To ensure the quality of the coating, it is necessary to test the adhesion of the coating. Common adhesion testing methods include the circle test, the grid test, and the pull test.
[0003] Existing coating adhesion testers, such as the one disclosed in utility model patent application number 202320674780.2, mainly include a measuring frame and a testing platform. The testing platform is located on the lower right side of the measuring frame, and a reinforcing side plate is located on the lower left side inside the measuring frame. An instrument display panel is embedded in the upper left end of the measuring frame. A glass testing bottle is placed on the upper surface of the testing platform. An internally threaded sleeve is embedded in the upper support of the measuring frame, and a screw is threaded to the axis of the internally threaded sleeve. In use, the lower surface of the first rubber layer is first coated with a coating... The first rubber layer inside the glass test bottle is coated with a coating. The turntable is then manually rotated to move the screw downwards along the internal threaded sleeve, causing the adhesion detection probe to move downwards and adhere the first rubber layer to the second rubber layer. The turntable is then rotated in the opposite direction to move the screw upwards along the internal threaded sleeve, causing the coating between the first and second rubber layers to slowly separate. The internal movement is observed through the glass test bottle. The adhesion detection probe transmits the adhesion strength information as an electrical signal to the instrument display panel and displays the adhesion strength data.
[0004] However, most existing testing instruments use transparent tape to connect the probe to the sheet metal parts. The test can only begin after the tape dries, resulting in low testing efficiency. Moreover, the tape is applied manually, which can easily lead to uneven application and affect the test results.
