Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of adjustable coating wet film thickness measuring ruler, specifically to an adjustable coating wet film thickness measuring ruler. Background Technology
[0002] For steel structures and marine engineering equipment, anti-corrosion coating is a crucial method, and film thickness is one of the key factors affecting its anti-corrosion performance. A thicker coating generally provides stronger corrosion resistance, but excessively thick coatings can also lead to a series of quality problems. Therefore, strict requirements are placed on the film thickness during coating application. Currently, there are two main methods for measuring coating thickness: dry film thickness measurement and wet film thickness measurement. Dry film thickness measurement must be performed after the coating has dried, which is considered a post-construction measurement. Wet film thickness measurement, on the other hand, is performed during application while the coating is still wet to correct for any deviations that may have occurred during the application process. This ensures that the coating thickness is within a reasonable range, effectively reducing paint consumption and production costs, and also preventing a series of quality problems.
[0003] CN217132046U discloses a novel coating wet film thickness measuring instrument. Made of aluminum alloy, it is lightweight, compact, easy to carry, corrosion-resistant, and reusable. All measuring teeth are integrated onto a single measuring surface, allowing for a single measurement to determine the coating's wet film thickness. The small size of the measuring teeth and zero-position tooth ensures that the wet coating self-levels after measurement, causing minimal damage to its appearance.
[0004] However, since all the measuring teeth of this measuring instrument are fixed as one piece and their length cannot be changed, its applicable range is small and it cannot measure wet films of coatings that are beyond its measurement range. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an adjustable wet film thickness measuring ruler to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] This utility model discloses an adjustable wet film thickness measuring ruler, comprising a positive ruler plate and a negative ruler plate. The positive ruler plate and the negative ruler plate are fixed together by several bolts. Zero teeth are provided at both ends of one long side of the positive ruler plate and the negative ruler plate. The negative ruler plate is provided with a row of several tooth grooves. Measuring teeth are provided in the tooth grooves. The tooth section of the measuring teeth is narrower than the rear section. The tooth section extends out of the tooth groove towards the zero tooth. The positive ruler plate presses down on the measuring teeth.
[0008] As an improvement, there are four bolts.
[0009] As an improvement, the edges of the positive and negative rulers are completely aligned.
[0010] The advantages of this invention compared to existing technologies are as follows: the positive and negative ruler plates are detachable, and the measuring teeth in the tooth groove can be replaced according to measurement needs. The length of the tooth segments in a row of measuring teeth gradually decreases. Then, the positive ruler plate is covered and tightened with bolts. The measuring teeth are replaceable and adjustable, thus this measuring ruler has a wide range of applications. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] In the description of the embodiments of this utility model, it should be noted that if terms such as "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer" appear, the indicated orientation or positional relationship is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship that the utility model product is usually placed in during use. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0024] This embodiment is combined with the appendix Figures 1 to 5 This paper provides a detailed description of an adjustable wet film thickness measuring ruler.
[0025] This embodiment discloses an adjustable wet film thickness measuring ruler made of aluminum alloy, 1 mm thick, comprising a positive ruler plate 1 and a negative ruler plate 2. The positive ruler plate 1 and the negative ruler plate 2 are fixed together by several bolts 3. Zero-position teeth 4 are provided at both ends of one length side of the positive ruler plate 1 and the negative ruler plate 2. The negative ruler plate 2 has a row of several toothed grooves 5, and measuring teeth 6 are provided in the toothed grooves 5. The tooth segment 61 of the measuring tooth 6 is narrower than the rear segment 62, and the tooth segment 61 extends towards the toothed groove 5. The positive ruler plate 1 presses down on the measuring tooth 6. The zero-position tooth 4 displays its length value, such as 300 μm. The tooth segments 61 of the multiple measuring teeth 6 display their length values decreasing sequentially, such as 250 μm, 200 μm, 150 μm, and 100 μm. There are four bolts 3.
[0026] The edges of the positive ruler 1 and the negative ruler 2 are completely aligned.
[0027] In practice, the positive ruler 1 and the negative ruler 2 can be separated. As needed for measurement, the measuring teeth 6 in the tooth groove 5 can be replaced. The length of the tooth segments 61 in a row of measuring teeth 6 gradually decreases, such as... Figure 2 Then cover with the measuring plate 1 and tighten with bolt 3. When measuring the paint thickness, hold the measuring plate 1 and the measuring plate 2, press the lower ends of the two zero-position teeth 4 onto the paint, and then remove them. At least one measuring tooth 6 will have paint on it. The difference between the value of the tooth segment 61 with the least paint and the value of the zero-position tooth 4 is the paint thickness. After taking the reading, wipe the tooth segment 61 and the zero-position tooth 4 clean. The wet coating will level itself after measurement, with minimal damage to the appearance of the coating.
