[0002] The existing bolt fasteners are widely used in connecting and fastening various structural components, and these structures need to bear various loads such as tensile force, shear force, vibration, etc. during use. The clamping force of the bolt fastener is directly related to the reliability of the connection and the safety of the structure. If the clamping force of the bolt fastener is insufficient, the connecting part may loosen, slip or even fall off under the action of load, thereby causing serious safety accidents.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The following will be described in detail in combination with the accompanying drawings Figure 1 - the accompanying drawings Figure 3 The application will be further described in detail.

[0032] The embodiment of the application discloses a bolt fastener clamping force test tool.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 A bolt fastener clamping force test tool, comprising a support seat 1, a pressure detection unit 2 and a pressure plate 3 are arranged on the support seat 1, the pressure detection unit 2 is detachably arranged between the pressure plate 3 and the support seat 1, and the pressure plate 3 abuts against the pressure detection unit 2.

[0034] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3The support base 1 comprises a center column 11, a base plate 12 and a limiting structure 13. The base plate 12 is provided with a sliding hole 121 which is in sliding cooperation with the center column 11. The base plate 12 is slidably arranged on the outer side of the center column 11 from top to bottom. The base plate 12 is prevented from being separated from the lower end of the center column 11 by the limiting structure 13. The upper surface of the center column 11 is in the same horizontal plane as the upper surface of the pressure detection unit 2 during use.

[0035] With reference to Figure 2 The upper end of the center column 11 is in abutting cooperation with the pressure plate 3. The pressure plate 3 is provided with a through hole 31. The center column 11 is provided with a connecting hole 111 at the axial center for threadedly connecting a bolt fastener to be tested. During use, the bolt fastener is screwed into the connecting hole 111 of the center column 11 after being arranged through the through hole 31, so that the pressure plate 3 is in abutting cooperation with the pressure detection unit 2.

[0036] With reference to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the embodiment, the pressure detection unit 2 is a pressure sensor. The pressure sensor is in the shape of a rectangular body. The pressure sensor is provided with a plug-in hole 21. The plug-in hole 21 of the pressure sensor is in plug-in cooperation with the upper end of the center column 11. The upper surface of the base plate 12 is fixed by a bolt, so that the base plate 12 is in close abutting cooperation with the lower surface of the pressure sensor. At the same time, the base plate 12 can stably support the pressure sensor in cooperation with the pressure plate 3, so as to ensure the stability of the position of the pressure sensor.

[0037] With reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2 When the bolt fastener is tightened, the pressure sensor is pressed by the pressure plate 3 and the base plate 12. The pressure sensor detects the pressure signal and outputs the pressure signal in the form of an electric signal, so as to accurately quantify the axial clamping force generated by the bolt fastener during the tightening process.

[0038] With reference to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The limiting structure 13 comprises two center-symmetrically arranged supporting rods 131. The center column 11 is provided with a clamping groove 112 which penetrates through the two sides of the center column 11. The penetration direction of any clamping groove 112 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the center column 11. Any supporting rod 131 is in clamping cooperation with the clamping groove 112. The upper surface of any supporting rod 131 is in abutting cooperation with the lower surface of the base plate 12.

[0039] With reference to Figure 2 and Figure 3When installing, the two support rods 131 are respectively inserted into the clamping grooves 112 transversely, so that the support rods 131 are clamped on the inner walls of the clamping grooves 112, and the end portions of the support rods 131 extend outward from the outer peripheral edge of the pressure plate 3, and the extension directions of the two support rods 131 are opposite, thereby forming symmetrical support to the base plate 12, ensuring the stability of the base plate 12 during the test, and reducing the possibility of test interruption or data deviation caused by the falling of the base plate 12.

[0040] With reference to Figure 2 and Figure 3 When it is necessary to disassemble the support rods 131, the worker knocks the extension part of the support rod 131 along the opening direction of the clamping groove 112, so that the support rod 131 in the clamping groove 112 can be easily taken out, improving the convenience of operation.

[0041] With reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2 Since the bolt fastener is detachably connected with the pressure plate 3 and the center column 11, after the test is completed, the whole disassembly process becomes simple and convenient, which is convenient for the worker to disassemble, and the bolt fastener will not be damaged, so that the bolt fastener can be completely disassembled and recycled.

[0042] With reference to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In order to reduce the overall weight of the tooling, a weight reduction hole 113 is formed at one end of the center column 11 close to the base plate 12, and the weight reduction hole 113 is coaxially communicated with the connecting hole 111, which not only ensures the connection function of the bolt fastener on the center column 11, but also reduces material consumption, so that the test tooling is more flexible and convenient during transportation and use.

[0043] With reference to Figure 3 The outer wall of any support rod 131 is processed with dense friction lines 1311, which increase the friction between the support rod 131 and the groove wall of the clamping groove 112, so that the worker can better operate the force during the installation, adjustment and disassembly of the support rod 131.

[0044] With reference to Figure 2 The four corners of the pressure sensor are processed with anti-scratch surfaces 22, which effectively prevent the sharp corners of the pressure sensor from scratching the worker during the use, transportation and storage of the test tooling, thereby improving the safety during the test.

[0045] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the application is as follows: in actual operation, the staff first inserts two supporting rods 131 into the clamping grooves 112 of the center column 11 transversely, so that the supporting rods 131 are clamped on the inner walls of the clamping grooves 112 and the end portions of the supporting rods 131 extend outward from the outer peripheral edges of the pressure plate 3, and the extending directions of the two supporting rods 131 are opposite.

[0046] Then, the base plate 12 is slid onto the center column 11, so that the lower surface of the base plate 12 abuts against the supporting rods 131, ensuring the stability of the base plate 12 on the supporting rods 131. Then, the pressure sensor is inserted into the center column 11 and fixed to the upper surface of the base plate 12 by bolts, and the pressure plate 3 is placed on the pressure sensor. The staff then inserts the bolt fastener to be tested through the through hole 31 of the pressure plate 3 and screws it into the connecting hole 111, until the head of the bolt fastener to be tested abuts against the upper surface of the pressure plate 3.

[0047] Finally, the torque wrench is used to tighten the bolt fastener to be tested to a preset value, so that the pressure sensor is pressed by the pressure plate 3 and the base plate 12 at the same time, so that the pressure sensor can record the pressure in real time and transmit it to the external device through the data line to generate a clamping force curve.

[0048] After the test is completed, the staff can remove the bolt fastener by rotating it in the opposite direction, and then easily remove the pressure plate 3, the pressure sensor and the base plate 12. Finally, the staff can knock the extending portions of the supporting rods 131 to remove the supporting rods 131 in the clamping grooves 112.

[0049] The above are preferred embodiments of the application, and do not limit the protection scope of the application, so that: any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, principle of the application should be covered within the protection scope of the application.
