Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of artillery recoil mechanism testing tools, and in particular to a recoil mechanism piston protrusion testing tool. Background Technology

[0002] The recoil mechanism is an important component of the recoil system of artillery. Its function is to store energy when the gun recoils and release the energy to push the gun back to its original position after the gun has recoiled to the correct position.

[0003] refer to Figure 1 The recoil mechanism of a certain type of artillery includes a cylinder 1, a piston 2 housed within the cylinder 1, and a piston rod 3 connected to the piston 2. The distance between the front end of the piston 2 and the front end of the cylinder 1 is the piston protrusion. Checking the piston protrusion is a crucial part of the pre-firing technical inspection of the artillery, and the accuracy of the inspection results directly affects firing safety. Especially after the recoil mechanism has been disassembled and repaired, the piston protrusion needs to be checked and monitored multiple times. By comparing accurate data, it can be determined whether there are still leaks in the recoil mechanism. However, due to the confined and irregularly shaped measurement space at the front of the recoil mechanism, conventional tools are unusable, and only visual inspection is possible, making it difficult to obtain accurate data and hindering the analysis and assessment of the technical condition of this type of artillery recoil mechanism. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a tool for detecting the protrusion of the recoil mechanism piston. Its advantage is that the tool can be well adapted to the structural space of the front end of a certain type of artillery recoil mechanism and accurately measure the length of the protrusion of the front end piston of the recoil mechanism.

[0005] To achieve the above and other related objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A tool for detecting the protrusion of a reciprocating machine piston includes: a grip mechanism;

[0007] A magnetic collar, which is flexibly connected to the grip mechanism, is used to magnetically fix it to the piston rod;

[0008] A sliding ruler is slidably connected to a magnetic collar, and the grip mechanism is provided with a transmission component that is pulsatorically connected to the sliding ruler; the sliding ruler is provided with scale lines.

[0009] A vernier is slidably connected to a sliding ruler; in the initial state, one end of the vernier corresponds to the zero mark on the scale line of the sliding ruler.

[0010] In one embodiment of the present invention, the magnetic collar includes a housing and an electromagnet fixed inside the housing; one side wall of the housing is an arc-shaped structure that cooperates with the piston rod, and a sliding groove is provided on the side wall of the housing opposite to the arc-shaped structure.

[0011] In one embodiment of the present invention, the sliding ruler includes a sliding ruler that is slidably connected to a sliding groove and a first baffle that is integrally formed with the sliding ruler and located on one side of the housing; a strip-shaped hole is provided in the middle of the sliding ruler.

[0012] In one embodiment of this utility model, the scale lines are disposed on a sliding ruler.

[0013] In one embodiment of the present invention, the width of the first baffle is greater than the width of the groove.

[0014] In one embodiment of the present invention, the vernier includes a slide rod located in a strip hole, a second baffle integrally formed on one end of the slide rod and located on one side of the housing, a limiting sleeve sleeved on the other end of the slide rod, and a screw threadedly connected to the limiting sleeve and fixing the limiting sleeve and the slide rod together.

[0015] In one embodiment of the present invention, the grip mechanism includes a handle and a mounting cylinder fixed on the handle, wherein the mounting cylinder is provided with a sliding groove.

[0016] In one embodiment of the present invention, the transmission assembly includes a slider that is slidably connected to the sliding groove, a flexible shaft that is fixedly connected to the slider at one end and to the sliding ruler at the other end, and a flexible tube that is fixedly connected to the mounting cylinder at one end and to the magnetic collar at the other end, wherein the flexible tube sleeves the flexible shaft inside.

[0017] In one embodiment of this utility model, the handle includes a housing fixedly connected to the mounting cylinder, a PCB board fixed inside the housing, and a battery module installed inside the housing and electrically connected to the PCB board; the electromagnet is electrically connected to the PCB board.

[0018] In one embodiment of this utility model, a power button electrically connected to the PCB board is installed on the mounting cylinder.

[0019] As described above, the reciprocating machine piston protrusion detection tool of this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. The magnetic collar is flexibly connected to the grip mechanism, which can adapt to the narrow and irregular structural space of the front end of a certain type of artillery recoil mechanism; the magnetic collar is used to magnetically fix the piston rod for magnetic positioning, ensuring that the tool is more stable during use; the slider is manually pushed to move forward in the sliding groove, and the flexible shaft transmits the driving force to the sliding ruler. The sliding ruler drives the vernier to move forward. When the vernier abuts against the front end of the piston, it remains stationary. Continuing to push the slider drives the sliding ruler to move forward. The sliding ruler abuts against the front end of the cylinder and remains stationary; using the principle of relative motion to generate distance difference, that is, the vernier moves relative to the sliding ruler. The difference between the vernier and the sliding ruler when they stop abutting the front end of the piston and the front end of the cylinder is the piston protrusion amount;

[0021] Since the vernier is initially located at the origin of the scale, when both the vernier and the sliding scale are stopped, the scale value corresponding to the vernier is the piston protrusion amount; thus, the length of the piston protrusion at the front end of the reciprocating machine can be accurately measured.

[0022] 2. The magnetic collar includes a housing and an electromagnet. Based on the characteristic that the electromagnet generates electromagnetic waves when energized, the magnetic collar can be firmly attracted to the side wall of the piston rod when the tool is measuring. When the tool is measuring, the magnetic collar is de-energized and the magnetic force disappears, making it easy to remove the tool from the reciprocating machine.

[0023] 3. After long-term use, the vernier may become loose due to wear. The tightness of the limit sleeve and the slide can be readjusted by screws to ensure the accuracy of the measurement data. Attached Figure Description

After the first baffle 62 abuts against the front end of the cylinder 1 and remains stationary, the slider 71 is stopped. When both the vernier 8 and the sliding ruler 6 are stopped, the scale value corresponding to the front end face of the limiting sleeve 83 is the piston protrusion amount. After the measurement is completed, the electromagnetic switch is turned off, the magnetic collar 5 loses its magnetism, and the tool can be removed. The mechanical scale value can be read from the sliding ruler 6 at the front end of the magnetic collar 5.

[0046] In summary, this invention solves the problems of inaccurate data and difficulty in comparison caused by the lack of tools to measure the protrusion of the piston at the front end of the reciprocating machine, which can only be estimated by visual inspection. Therefore, this invention effectively overcomes the various shortcomings of the prior art and has high industrial application value.
