[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 5 The tensile fatigue testing device provided in this application includes a drive assembly and two clamping structures 300.
[0039] The drive component 120 is connected to the transmission component 140 through the first transmission structure, so that the transmission component 140 can perform linear reciprocating motion.
[0040] Of the two clamping structures 300, one clamping structure 300 is fixedly installed, and the other clamping structure 300 is installed at the end of the transmission member 140.
[0041] In use, the two ends of the test piece are clamped and fixed by the clamping structure 300, and the driving component 120 drives the transmission component 140 to perform linear reciprocating motion through the second transmission structure 130, applying an alternating force or displacement to the test piece, thereby enabling tensile fatigue testing.
[0042] In this embodiment, the driving component 120 is a motor, and the second transmission structure 130 is a lead screw structure. The motor is connected to the lead screw structure via a coupling or a synchronous pulley and belt structure, and the transmission component 140 is fixed to the lead screw nut of the lead screw structure. The rotation of the motor is converted into the linear reciprocating motion of the lead screw nut by the forward and reverse rotation of the motor and the lead screw structure.
[0043] In some embodiments, a force sensor is provided on the transmission component 140 to make the test more accurate so that the tensile force can be tested.
[0044] In some embodiments, the tensile fatigue testing structure of this application further includes a test chamber 100, a fixture structure 300 disposed in the test chamber 100, and the temperature and humidity of the test chamber 100 are adjustable.
[0045] In a specific embodiment, the test chamber 100 includes a refrigeration unit and a heater. The refrigeration unit and heater generate cold and hot air respectively, which are then delivered into the test chamber 100 through pipes and air inlets. The air outlet of the test chamber 100 discharges air from the chamber, creating air circulation within the chamber to maintain a stable and safe air pressure while meeting the requirements for temperature uniformity inside the chamber. The ambient temperature and humidity settings can be configured on the temperature and humidity setting interface, and temperature and humidity sensors can record the temperature and humidity inside the test chamber 100 in real time.
[0046] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 4 and 5, the tensile fatigue testing device of this application may further include a bending fatigue testing fixture 200, which may be disposed inside the test box 100. The bending fatigue testing fixture 200 includes a fixing member 210, a first clamping structure, and a second clamping structure.
[0047] The fixing member 210 is vertically arranged and located between the two clamping structures 300. The setting of the fixing member 210 does not affect the tensile fatigue test. The first clamping structure is set on the fixing member 210 with adjustable position. Specifically, the fixing member 210 is provided with several screw holes at intervals along the vertical direction. The first clamping structure is connected to the screw holes by bolts. The position adjustment of the first clamping structure is achieved by fixing the first clamping structure to different screw holes.
[0048] The first clamping mechanism includes a first connecting plate 221 and a second connecting member. The first connecting plate 221 is connected to a bolt hole, and the second connecting plate 222 is connected to the first connecting plate 221 by bolts, so that the test piece placed between the first connecting plate 221 and the second connecting plate 222 can be clamped.
[0049] The second clamping structure includes two third connecting plates 230, which are connected by bolts. When a bending fatigue test is required on the test piece, the clamping structure 300 on the transmission component 140 is removed, and the second clamping structure is fixed to the transmission component 140. The driving component 120 drives the transmission component 140 to perform linear reciprocating motion through the second transmission structure 130, applying an alternating force or displacement to the test piece, thereby achieving the bending fatigue test. It should be noted that the transmission component 140 is horizontally positioned.
[0050] In some embodiments, the tensile fatigue testing device of this application further includes a first housing 110 and a base frame 101, with the clamping structure 300 and the test box 100 both fixed to the base frame 101, and the first housing 110 used for dust protection of the drive components.
[0051] In some embodiments, the test chamber 100 also includes an openable door structure.
[0052] In some embodiments, such as Figures 6 to 9 As shown, the clamping structure 300 provided in this application includes a mounting base 310, two clamping members 350, and a driving structure.
[0053] The mounting base 310 is provided with a groove structure 311, and two clamping members 350 are symmetrically arranged in the groove structure 311. The two clamping members 350 can move in the groove structure 311. The movement here is not limited to moving closer or further away from each other, or the translation of the two clamping members 350.
[0054] The drive structure includes a first connector 330 and a second connector. The first connector 330 is rotatably mounted on the mounting base 310, and the second connector is mounted on the groove structure 311. The second connector can slide from one end of the groove structure 311 to the other end. The second connector is movably connected to the clamping member 350. The first connector 330 and the second connector are connected by a first transmission structure. The first transmission structure is used to convert the rotation of the first connector 330 into the linear motion of the second connector. During the movement of the two clamping members 350 following the second connector, the groove structure 311 can make the two clamping members 350 move closer to each other.
[0055] When the clamping structure 300 of this application is used for tensile fatigue testing of the test piece, rotating the first connecting member 330 causes the second connecting member to slide linearly under the action of the first transmission structure. Simultaneously, this causes the two clamping members 350 to disengage from the groove structure 311, creating space between them for the test piece to be placed. After the test piece is placed, rotating the first connecting member 330 in the opposite direction causes the second connecting member to move the two clamping members 350 until they abut against the groove wall of the groove structure 311. Guided by the groove structure 311, the two clamping members 350 move closer together to clamp the test piece placed between them. The entire clamping structure 300 is ergonomically designed and easy to operate; simply rotating the first connecting member 330 is sufficient to bring the two clamping members 350 closer together, achieving rapid clamping and fixation of the test piece.
[0056] In some embodiments, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the first transmission structure includes a meshing annular tooth 331 and a rack. The annular tooth 331 is disposed at the end of the first connecting member 330, and the rack is disposed at the second connecting member. The center of the annular tooth 331 is the rotation center of the first connecting member 330. By rotating the first connecting member 330, the annular tooth 331 is driven to rotate, and the rack is driven to perform linear motion through gear transmission.
[0057] In some embodiments, such as Figures 6 to 9 As shown, the second connector includes a pushing part 341. Both clamping parts 350 have a groove 351 on their opposite sides. At least a portion of the pushing part 341 is located in the groove 351. During the movement of the second connector, the pushing part abuts against the groove wall of the groove 351, thereby enabling the clamping parts 350 to move with the pushing part. In conjunction with the implementation of the groove structure 311, the two clamping parts 350 are controlled to move closer to each other and clamp the test piece.
[0058] In some embodiments, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the second connector also includes a rod 342. The end of the clamp 350 is provided with a notch for communicating with the groove 351. The rod 342 passes through the notch and connects to the push part 341. The notch is provided so that the rod 342 does not affect the two clamps 350 from approaching and fitting together.
[0059] like Figure 9 As shown, from one end of the groove structure 311 to the other end, the groove width of the groove structure 311 gradually increases and decreases. The second connector is close to the end of the groove structure 311 with a larger groove section. This groove structure 311 is designed so that during the tensile test, the linear reciprocating motion of the second connector can control the two clamping pieces 350 to move closer to each other and clamp the test piece.
[0060] In addition, during the tensile test, as the test piece is stretched, the friction causes the clamp 350 to move toward the end of the groove structure 311 with a smaller groove width, which allows the two clamps 350 to clamp the test piece more firmly, making the test smoother.
[0061] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, both clamping members 350 have a textured surface 352 or an array of protrusions on their opposite sides. The textured surface 352 or the protrusions can increase the friction with the workpiece under test, effectively improving the clamping capacity of the clamping members 350.
[0062] In some embodiments, such as Figure 9 As shown, a groove is formed on a portion of the end face of the mounting base 310, extending to the side of the mounting base 310, forming a groove structure 311. This groove structure 311 is easy to manufacture.
[0063] In some embodiments, a detachable limiting block 312 is provided at the opening of the channel. The limiting block 312 is used to restrict the clamp 350 from leaving the channel, effectively preventing the clamp 350 from leaving the test piece during the tensile fatigue test and thus affecting the test of the test piece.
[0064] In some specific embodiments, the clamp structure 300 is detachably connected to the transmission component 140, making disassembly and assembly more convenient.
[0065] Specifically, such as Figures 6 to 9As shown, the clamp structure 300 of this application also includes a connecting flange 320, which is fixed to the mounting base 310. The connecting flange 320 also has a mating part 321, on which a first through hole is provided. The end of the transmission member 140 is provided with a mating hole 141 in the axial direction, and the end of the transmission clamp 350 is provided with a second through hole 142 in the radial direction. The second through hole 142 communicates with the mating hole 141. After the mating part 321 is inserted into the mating hole 141, the first through hole can be rotated to face the second through hole 142. By providing a pin in the first through hole and the second through hole 142, the connecting flange 320 can be disengaged from the transmission member 140 in the directional direction.
[0066] The connection structure of the connecting flange 320 and the transmission component 140 makes it easy to assemble and disassemble the clamp structure 300 and the transmission component 140.
[0067] To make the connection between the transmission component 140 and the connecting flange 320 more secure, a flange portion 143 is provided at the end of the transmission component 140, and the flange portion 143 is connected to the connecting flange 320 by bolts.
[0068] The embodiments of this application have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this application is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this application.
