Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of thread inspection technology, specifically to a thread inspection machine. Background Technology

[0002] A thread inspection machine is a device specifically designed to inspect the quality and precision of threads. It is widely used in fields such as machinery manufacturing, automotive industry, and aerospace. Its main function is to ensure that the dimensions, shape, precision, and surface quality of the threads meet the design requirements, thereby guaranteeing the performance and safety of the threads in practical applications.

[0003] CN216745777U discloses a thread inspection machine, including a support base. A first motor and a second motor are mounted on the upper side of the support base. A first main pulley is located in front of the first motor, with one end of a first belt fitted onto the outer side of the first main pulley. A first driven pulley is fitted onto the other end of the first belt. A second main pulley is located behind the second motor. This invention uses a friction plate to rub against the rotating first driven pulley, causing the thread ring gauge to rotate with the friction plate. The rotation depth is visually determined to reach the root of the workpiece thread. Then, by holding the workpiece and gently pulling it back, the friction plate also retracts, rubbing against the rotating second driven pulley. Simultaneously, the thread ring gauge rotates in the opposite direction with the second driven pulley, causing the workpiece to be reversed and ejected. This completes the inspection of one workpiece. For batch inspections, this significantly improves the work efficiency of operators and saves a considerable amount of time.

[0004] The aforementioned patent addresses the shortcomings of the conventional inspection method in the prior art, which involves operators manually monitoring threaded workpieces, resulting in high workload and poor inspection accuracy. However, the patent's technical solution makes it inconvenient to replace the thread ring gauge and does not include a thread plug gauge, making it impossible to inspect workpieces with different thread specifications and different threads, thus resulting in poor adaptability of the thread inspection machine.

[0015] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that it makes it easier to insert the triangular limiting post into the triangular limiting groove.

[0016] Furthermore, four guide rods are fixedly installed on the inner side of the C-shaped frame, and every two guide rods form a through connecting plate.

[0017] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solution are: the guide rod can limit the movement of the motor and increase the stability of the motor during operation.
