[0029] The side of force bar 5 close to pressure sensor 3 is provided with avoiding slot 7. The expansion block 4 is provided with guide slot 402, and the guide direction of guide slot 402 extends obliquely to pressure sensor 3, and force bar 5 is provided with guide column 8 in paired connection with guide slot 402. Through the setting of guide slot 402, force bar 5 can move to pressure sensor 3 and extrude driving expansion block 4 to move towards avoiding mouth 203 under the driving of driving piece 6, and at the same time, pressure sensor 3 receives force and obtains force in the opposite direction, so that the clamping force value of grid spring can be obtained.

[0030] Specifically, two guide grooves 402 are arranged in the embodiment, two guide columns 8 are arranged and matched with the guide grooves 402 respectively, and the guide columns 8 are arranged at two ends of the stress rod 5.

[0031] The mounting hole 204 is arranged on the detection shell 2 and connected with the expansion block 4, and the connecting groove 403 is arranged on the expansion block 4 and matched with the mounting hole 204. The connecting groove 403 on the expansion block 4 is matched and connected with the mounting hole 204 of the detection shell 2, so that the expansion block 4 can move to the avoiding opening 203 under the extrusion of the stress rod 5, thereby forming the expansion and contraction action of the expansion block 4, improving the convenience and use effect of the connection.
