[0047] During measurement, one end of the pipe rod to be measured is pressed against the positioning block 4 and the other end is contacted with the measuring rod of the micrometer 5-1 in the measuring mechanism 5 by moving the positioning block 4 and the measuring mechanism 5.

[0048] In the embodiment, the chassis 1 comprises a support leg 1-1 at the bottom and a frame 1-2 arranged above the support leg 1-1, the frame 1-2 is formed by welding a steel I-beam and fixing plates arranged at two ends of the steel I-beam, and the frame 1-2 is welded and fixed above the support leg 1-1 or is fixed above the support leg 1-1 by bolts and nuts; wherein the bottom of the support leg 1-1 is provided with a roller with a locking function, and the measuring device can be moved to a specified position and locked according to actual requirements, and then the pipe rod to be measured is measured.

[0049] Further, the detection platform 2 is fixedly arranged on the frame 1-2 (cross section in the shape of a steel I-beam) by fasteners; preferably, the fasteners can be fastening screws, or other fasteners capable of achieving fastening effect such as bolts and nuts.

[0050] In the embodiment, the opening groove is a V-shaped groove, the included angle of the V-shaped groove is 60°-90°, and preferably 90°, and the positioning block 4 is a V-shaped positioning block.

[0051] Further, the V-shaped positioning block comprises a stopper body 4-1, the stopper body 4-1 can move along the length direction of the V-shaped groove, and the lower end of the stopper body 4-1 is provided with a V-shaped protrusion 4-2 matched with the V-shaped groove; a second adjusting nut 4-3 is arranged on the side wall of the stopper body 4-1, and the relative fixing of the V-shaped positioning block on the V-shaped groove is realized by rotating the second adjusting nut 4-3.

[0052] It is to be further explained that, in order to protect the to-be-measured pipe rod from being damaged during the measurement, a supporting soft pad for protection is arranged on the supporting surface of the inner wall of the V-shaped groove. In the embodiment, the length of the V-shaped groove is about 4600mm, the material of the V-shaped groove is carbon tool steel, the flatness of the V-shaped groove is 0.02mm / m, the straightness of the V-shaped groove is 0.03mm / m, and the surface roughness of the V-shaped groove is 0.32μm.

That is, when the motor rotates, power is transmitted to the screw rod 5-2-3 through the coupling, and when the screw rod 5-2-3 rotates, based on the screw rod nut transmission principle, the screw rod nut sliding block 5-2-4 installed on the screw rod 5-2-3 is pushed to move axially along the screw rod 5-2-3 due to the friction force, thereby driving the second mounting plate 5-3-1 and the micrometer 5-1 to move in the first direction (a direction parallel to the length direction of the detection platform 2, i.e., an axial direction).

[0055] Further, the second moving assembly 5-3 comprises a second mounting plate 5-3-1 for mounting the micrometer 5-1, the second mounting plate 5-3-1 being fixedly connected to the top of the screw rod nut sliding block 5-2-4.

[0059] In summary, the specific measurement process of the pipe or bar length measuring device is as follows:

[0060] First, a length standard sample after measurement is placed on the open slot 3, the position of the positioning block 4 is adjusted so that the other end of the length standard sample is within the extension range (0-10 mm) of the measuring rod of the dial gauge 5-1; the positioning block 4 and the measuring mechanism 5 are fixed, which can be realized by locking the handle 8; the transverse position of the dial gauge 5-1 is adjusted so that the measuring rod thereof contacts the end of the length standard sample, the "0" button of the dial gauge is clicked, and the length standard sample is removed.

[0061] Then, the pipe or bar to be measured is placed on the open slot 3, one end of the pipe or bar to be measured abuts against the positioning block 4, the measuring rod of the dial gauge 5-1 is pulled to make it contact the end of the pipe or bar, and the display value of the dial gauge 5-1 is read; the length value of the pipe or bar to be measured is equal to the algebraic sum of the display value of the dial gauge 5-1 and the length standard sample.

[0068] It should be noted that when the hand wheel is rotated, the encoder can collect the number of rotations of the hand wheel in real time, so as to facilitate the resetting of the measuring structure after the measurement is completed. Moreover, the shape of the opening groove 3 in the embodiment is not specifically limited, for example, it can be a ladder-shaped groove, a concave arc groove or other shapes of opening grooves 3, in principle, as long as it can provide stable support for the pipe bar to be measured, which will not be described here.
