Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of casting processing, specifically a fixture for placing castings for hardness testing. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, with the continuous development of my country's industry, the demand for castings is gradually increasing. The diverse structural forms of castings lead to ever-growing needs, and castings are widely used in fluid valve castings, aerospace, automotive, machinery, and other fields. As the applications of castings become more widespread, the quality requirements, such as dimensional accuracy, are also becoming increasingly stringent.

[0003] After castings are manufactured, they need to undergo mechanical property testing. Hardness testing is one of the important indicators for detecting material properties, and it can reflect the differences in chemical composition, microstructure, and processing technology. For some non-standard castings, if the casting is placed directly on the support plate of the hardness testing machine, it will be unstable and the flatness of the surface to be hardened cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, this application proposes a casting hardness testing fixture to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the existing problems, this utility model provides a fixture for testing the hardness of castings, which can effectively solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A fixture for testing the hardness of castings includes a base plate, with a first support block and a second support block on each side of the base plate. The first support block and the second support block are respectively provided with a first positioning groove and a second positioning groove. The two ends of the casting are placed in the first positioning groove and the second positioning groove respectively, and the upper surface of the casting to be tested is in a horizontal state.

[0007] As a further improvement of this utility model: both the first positioning groove and the second positioning groove are V-shaped grooves and are matched with both ends of the casting.

[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model: the bottom of the first positioning groove and the second positioning groove are provided with rectangular grooves, and the bottom ends of the casting are suspended in the rectangular grooves.

[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model, a stop bar is provided on one side of the first support block and / or the second support block that are opposite to each other.

[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model, magnets are embedded in the side walls of both the first positioning groove and the second positioning groove.

[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model: both the first support block and the second support block are embedded in the base plate and connected to the base plate by screws.

[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model, the base plate is fixedly connected to both sides with handles.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: This utility model supports both ends of the casting by the first support block and the second support block on the base plate, and uses the first positioning groove and the second positioning groove to position and support the ends of the irregular casting, ensuring the stability of the casting, ensuring that the pressure surface is in a horizontal state, facilitating the hard pressing of the casting on the hardness testing machine, improving the hardness testing accuracy of the casting, facilitating worker operation, and improving production efficiency.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] Combination Figures 1 to 4This embodiment provides a fixture for placing castings for hardness testing. It includes a base plate 1 with several through holes 2 to reduce its weight. Handles 3 are fixedly connected to both sides of the base plate 1 for easy handling. A first support block 4 and a second support block 5 are respectively provided on the top surfaces of both sides of the base plate 1. Both the first support block 4 and the second support block 5 are embedded in the base plate 1 and connected to it by screws. The first support block 4 and the second support block 5 are respectively provided with a first positioning groove 6 and a second positioning groove 7. Both ends of the casting 8 are placed in the first positioning groove 6 and the second positioning groove 7, and the upper surface of the casting 8 to be tested for hardness is horizontal.

[0021] In this example, both the first positioning groove 6 and the second positioning groove 7 are V-shaped grooves and are matched with the two ends of the casting, which can provide matching support for the V-shaped structure at both ends of the casting. Furthermore, the bottom of the first positioning groove 6 and the second positioning groove 7 is provided with rectangular grooves, and the bottom ends of the casting are suspended in the rectangular grooves 9. The rectangular grooves prevent the two ends of the casting from directly contacting each other and causing pressure damage.

[0022] A stop bar 10 is provided on one side of the first support block 4 and / or the second support block 5 that are opposite to each other. In this example, a stop bar 10 is provided on the side of the first support block 4 that is opposite to the second support block 5. The stop bar is positioned opposite the rectangular groove. The stop bar can be used to limit one side of the casting. Of course, a stop bar can also be provided on the second support block to achieve the purpose of limiting both sides of the casting. The setting of the stop bar depends on the specific situation.

[0023] Magnets 11 are embedded in the side walls of both the first positioning groove 6 and the second positioning groove 7. The magnets are used to attract the casting to improve the stability of the casting. The magnets are permanent magnets or electromagnets.

[0024] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: the first and second support blocks on the base plate support both ends of the casting, and the first and second positioning grooves are used to position and support the ends of the irregular casting, ensuring the stability of the casting and ensuring that the pressure surface is horizontal. This facilitates the hard pressing of the casting on the hardness testing machine, improves the hardness testing accuracy of the casting, facilitates worker operation, and improves production efficiency.
