Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a butt joint fastening mechanism of a middle detachable trolley, in particular to a fastening mechanism when the front and rear two parts of the trolley butt joint. BACKGROUND
[0002] The flaw detection trolley is widely applicable to detecting the steel rails used in the existing ordinary railway, high-speed railway, urban subway or light rail. At present, the most widely used flaw detection trolley is an ultrasonic flaw detection trolley. The principle of ultrasonic detection is that when the ultrasonic probe (piezoelectric chip) in the probe is excited by the ultrasonic emission signal (i.e. "high-voltage pulse") emitted by the system, it will vibrate according to its inherent vibration frequency. Ultrasonic waves propagate in the steel rail, and when they encounter cracks, defects or cavities in the steel rail, part of the ultrasonic wave energy will be reflected back. The energy reflected back is received by the chip and becomes a return wave. The return waves obtained by various ultrasonic probes are converted into electrical signals in the ultrasonic transducer, and then subjected to analog processing, digital processing, spatial conversion, damage identification, and finally displayed in the form of an image on the display control computer, completing the detection process of the different parts and different forms of damage of the steel rail.
[0003] The current detachable flaw detection trolley is fixed and tightened by ordinary round bakelite hand screws after the front and rear trolley bodies are butt jointed, and the screws have the risk of falling off. However, solid objects such as metals are strictly prohibited from falling in the track area during railway operation, which is a high risk. Moreover, the round bakelite hand screws have the risk of slipping and not being tightened. SUMMARY
[0004] In view of the problem that the fastening screws of the current detachable flaw detection trolley front and rear trolley body butt joint mechanism are prone to falling off and not being tightened, the utility model provides a hand screw butt joint fastening mechanism.
[0005] The specific technical scheme of the utility model is as follows:
[0006] A hand screw butt joint fastening mechanism for a detachable steel rail flaw detection trolley, comprising a hand screw, a spring, an elastic card and a hand seat, which can be used to fix the front and rear trolley bodies when they are butt jointed.
[0007] Preferably, before butt joint installation, the spring ensures that the hand screw cannot freely fall on the base in the vertical direction, and the spring supports the hand screw, so that the threaded segment of the hand screw is hidden in the base and does not affect the translation and cross butt joint of the front and rear trolley bodies.
[0008] Preferably, the elastic card clamps the threaded segment of the hand screw and is embedded in the groove of the base at the same time, preventing the spring from ejecting and falling off the hand screw from the base.
[0009] Preferably, the handle of the screw is butterfly-shaped, which does not have the problem of slipping, and can also be tightened using a movable wrench or other tools.
[0010] Preferably, the base has three cylindrical cavities with diameters Ra, Rb and Rc respectively; the spring has an inner diameter C1 and an outer diameter C2; the elastic clamp has an inner diameter C3 and an outer diameter C4; the hand screw consists of a hand screw seat, a light shaft section and a threaded section, the hand screw seat has an outer diameter D1, the light shaft section has an outer diameter D2, and the threaded section has an outer diameter D3; in the above dimensions, D1>Ra>C2>C1>Rb>D3>D2, Rc>C4>D3>C3>D2, and C4>Rb.
[0011] The beneficial effects of the present application
[0012] The hand screw butt joint fastening mechanism improves the problem of traditional fastening mode that the hand screw is easy to fall off and not tightened. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
