[0026] In order to make the utility model's purpose, technical scheme and beneficial effects more clear and obvious, the technical scheme in the utility model will be further explained below in combination with the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the utility model, and are not used to limit the utility model.
[0027] In the utility model embodiment, as shown in the figure, Figures 1-4 The locking mechanism of the pendulum includes a base 1, a support seat group and a limiting structure. The support seat group includes a first support seat 2 and a second support seat 3. The first support seat 2 and the second support seat 3 are arranged at intervals on the base 1. The second support seat 3 is arranged obliquely relative to the first support seat 2 and is configured to be located at the swing limit position. The limiting structure includes a limiting rod 4 and a matching surface 301. The limiting rod 4 and the matching surface 301 are arranged on the first support seat 2 and the second support seat 3 respectively. One end of the limiting rod 4 can rotate relative to the first support seat 2 so that the other end gradually approaches or gradually moves away from the matching surface 301. The limiting rod 4 is used to lock or release the pendulum located therebetween.
[0028] Specifically, in the utility model embodiment, the pendulum is driven by a forward-reverse motor so that it can swing clockwise and counterclockwise around the axis to impact the test piece during the swing. The swing path of the pendulum has two swing limit positions (a first swing limit position and a second swing limit position). Since the pendulum has a notch 201, the notch 201 needs to face the test piece during the impact. Therefore, the swing limit position away from the notch 201 is the first swing limit position, i.e., the initial position of the pendulum. The other swing limit position is the second swing limit position. Since the pendulum needs to be corrected to the first swing limit position for each test, the locking mechanism in the embodiment needs to be arranged at the first swing limit position.
[0029] In the embodiment of the utility model, support seat group includes first support seat 2 and second support seat 3, first support seat 2 and second support seat 3 are spaced apart, so that first support seat 2 is away from first swing limit position, and second support seat 3 is placed in first swing limit position, facilitating normal swing of pendulum, avoiding swing interference to it;Meanwhile, second support seat 3 is inclinedly arranged relative to first support seat 2, for adapting to first swing limit position, further avoiding interference to pendulum.
[0030] In the embodiment of the utility model, limit structure limiting rod 4 and cooperation face 301, one end of limiting rod 4 is rotatably arranged in first support seat 2, so that the other end can gradually approach or gradually move away from cooperation face 301 located in second support seat 3;In this way, when pendulum swings to first swing limit position, it is parked at cooperation face 301, and limiting rod 4 is driven to rotate under the action of external force, so that pendulum can be pressed at cooperation face 301, to realize the quick locking of pendulum.In this process, various components do not need too much mechanical cooperation and linkage action, so that the corresponding speed of limiting rod 4 is faster, so as to quickly lock pendulum.In addition, the mechanical structure is simplified to reduce maintenance cost, and the failure rate is lower, and the assembly precision requirement is lower.
[0031] The embodiment positions limiting rod 4 and cooperation face 301 by first support seat 2 and second support seat 3, so that pendulum between limiting rod 4 can be locked or released after being driven to rotate by external force, the locking mechanism is simplified, the corresponding speed is faster, and the requirement for installation precision is reduced.
[0032] As shown in Figure 2 , Figure 3 In an embodiment, the one end of the limiting rod 4 close to the first support seat 2 is defined as the first end, and the other end is the second end, the first end of the limiting rod 4 protrudes outward to form a protrusion 401, and the protrusion 401 is rotatably arranged on the first support seat 2. Specifically, in order to make the limiting rod 4 rotatably connected to the first support seat 2, the embodiment defines the limiting rod 4 to include the first end and the second end, the first end of the limiting rod 4 is integrally formed with the protrusion 401, the protrusion 401 is provided with a rotating shaft hole, and the rotating shaft is arranged in the rotating shaft hole to rotatably cooperate with the first support seat 2, so that the first end of the limiting rod 4 can rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft, and the second end of the limiting rod 4 is rotatable in the direction of approaching or moving away from the cooperation face 301. In addition, since the second support seat 3 is inclinedly arranged, in order to ensure that the second end of the limiting rod 4 rotates in place, as shown in Figure 3 , the protrusion 401 protrudes outward from the side of the limiting rod 4. Preferably, the first support seat 2 is provided with a notch 201 for avoiding the protrusion 401.
[0033] As shown in Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown in the embodiment, the first end of the limiting rod 4 is rotatably provided with a connecting rod 5, which is driven by a cylinder 6 provided on the base 1, and is used to rotate the limiting rod 4 through the connecting rod 5. Specifically, in order to drive the limiting rod 4 to rotate, the embodiment is hinged with a connecting rod 5 at the first end of the limiting rod 4, and the connecting rod 5 is connected with the cylinder 6. Thus, the cylinder 6 is fixed on the base 1, and the cylinder 6 can push or pull the connecting rod 5 to move, and the limiting rod 4 can be rotated under the cooperation of the protrusion 401 and the first support seat 2. At this time, the cylinder 6 as a driving member is directly connected to the limiting rod 4 through the connecting rod 5, and the cooperation of the gear and rack set in the traditional mechanism is omitted, so that the corresponding speed of each component can be improved.
[0034] As shown in the embodiment, Figure 2 , Figure 3 In an embodiment, the second end of the limiting rod 4 is provided with an elastic pad 7. Specifically, the elastic pad 7 can compensate for small errors that may occur during manufacturing and installation to a certain extent, and can adapt to the imperfectly matched contact surface through its own deformation to ensure that the limiting rod 4 and the cooperating surface 301 have more close and stable contact, thereby improving the accuracy of the locking position. When locking and releasing operations are performed, especially when the limiting rod 4 quickly approaches or leaves the pendulum, the direct collision between metals will produce a lot of noise, and the elastic pad 7 can effectively reduce such noise. In addition, since the elastic pad 7 can buffer the direct impact between mechanical components and reduce the degree of wear, it helps to prolong the service life of the related components and reduce the maintenance cost and time consumption caused by frequent replacement of parts.
[0035] In addition, as shown in the embodiment, Figure 2 , Figure 3 The second end of the limiting rod 4 is movably provided with a latch 8 for inserting or removing the second support seat 3. Specifically, in order to further lock the pendulum between the limiting rod 4 and the cooperating surface 301, the embodiment is provided with a latch 8 at the limiting rod 4, and the telescopic latch 8 can facilitate the insertion or removal of the second support seat 3 on the one hand, and can also avoid interference of the latch 8 with the pendulum. Preferably, the second support seat 3 is provided with a insertion hole 304, which cooperates with the latch 8 and is arranged close to the cooperating surface 301. Of course, in other embodiments, since the locking part of the pendulum is a rod-shaped structure, in order to increase the contact area with the locking part and firmly fix the pendulum at the corresponding position, the surface of the limiting rod 4 can be provided as an arc-shaped structure matched with the above rod-shaped structure.
[0036] As shown in the embodiment, Figure 4As shown in the embodiment, the matching surface 301 is a flat surface or an arc surface. Specifically, when the matching surface 301 is a flat surface, the contact uniformity can be improved and the surface can be protected from damage, and the adaptability can be improved. Conversely, when the matching surface 301 is an arc surface, the arc structure of the limiting rod 4 described above can be matched, and a cavity can be formed therebetween for fitting and accommodating the pendulum.
[0037] In addition, as Figure 4 As shown in the embodiment, the second support base 3 is provided with an inclined guide surface 302, and the high end of the guide surface 302 extends in the direction of the matching surface 301. Specifically, in order to avoid the pendulum directly impacting the second support base 3 and facilitate the pendulum to be placed at the matching surface 301, the embodiment is provided with a guide surface 302 at the second support base 3, and the guide surface 302 is arranged in an inclined manner, and the high end of the guide surface 302 is connected to the matching surface 301.
[0038] As Figure 4 As shown in the embodiment, the second support base 3 is provided with a stop surface 303, and the stop surface 303 is perpendicular to the matching surface 301 and is arranged close to the first support base 2. Specifically, in the embodiment, the matching surface 301 and the stop surface 303 are configured as an L-shaped structure, so that the stop surface 303 can block the pendulum, that is, when the pendulum abuts against the stop surface 303, the pendulum is at the first swing limit position.
[0039] The embodiment also provides an impact testing machine comprising the locking mechanism of the pendulum described above, and the specific structure of the locking mechanism is referred to the above-described embodiments. Since the impact testing machine adopts all the technical solutions of the above-described embodiments, at least all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above-described embodiments are possessed, and here is not repeated.
[0040] Finally, it should be pointed out that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the utility model and are not limited. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the utility model can be modified or replaced equivalently without departing from the purpose and scope of the technical solutions of the utility model, and all should be covered in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
