[0022] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 2 As shown:
[0023] This utility model provides a detection structure for the curvature of automotive leaf springs, including a detection base 1, a chord length positioning plate 2, a chord height positioning plate 3, a slide groove 4, a center fixing head 5, a chord length fixing plate 6, a chord length scale 7, a chord height fixing plate 8, a chord height scale 9, and a chord height auxiliary scale 10. The chord length positioning plate 2, the chord height positioning plate 3, and the chord height auxiliary scale 10 are fixedly installed on the detection base 1. The inner surfaces of the chord length positioning plate 2 and the chord height positioning plate 3 are provided with slide grooves 4. The center fixing head 5 and the chord length fixing plate 6 are slidably installed on the chord length positioning plate 2 through the slide grooves 4. The chord length scale 7 is provided on the upper surface of the chord length positioning plate 2. The chord height fixing plate 8 is slidably installed on the chord height positioning plate 3 through the slide grooves 4. The chord height scale 9 is provided on the upper surface of the chord height positioning plate 3.
[0024] Furthermore, both the chord length positioning plate 2 and the chord height positioning plate 3 are made of metal materials such as aluminum alloy or stainless steel, and are installed on adjacent sides of the detection base 1 by bolting or welding. They are set in a mutually perpendicular orientation, forming an "L"-shaped layout: the chord length positioning plate 2 extends along the length direction of the detection base 1, and the chord height positioning plate 3 extends along the width direction of the detection base 1. Its vertical edge is tightly fitted with the side edge of the chord length positioning plate 2, ensuring that their axes are orthogonal within the plane of the detection base 1, providing a basis for subsequent cross-measurement of the chord length and chord height.
[0025] Furthermore, the upper surface of the detection base 1 is laser-etched with multiple chord height auxiliary scales 10. These scales are located in the area between the chord length positioning plate 2 and the chord height positioning plate 3, and are equidistantly arranged along the axial direction of the chord length positioning plate 2 (i.e., the length direction of the detection base 1). The scale lines are parallel to the axial direction of the chord height positioning plate 3 (i.e., the width direction of the detection base 1). The minimum graduation of the chord height auxiliary scales 10 is 1 mm, the scale line length is 5 mm, and the depth is 0.1 mm. The surface is blackened to improve readability.
[0026] Furthermore, a transverse T-shaped groove 4 is formed on the inner surface of the chord length positioning plate 2. Two sliders (not shown in the figure) are installed in the groove 4. One slider is fixedly connected to the center positioning head 5, and the other slider is fixedly connected to the chord length positioning plate 6. The center positioning head 5 is a cone made of hard plastic, with its tip pointing downwards and facing the upper surface of the detection base 1. It is used to indicate the specific value of the chord height auxiliary scale 10. The chord length positioning plate 6 is a rectangular metal plate with a thickness of 5mm. Its inner surface is polished to form a smooth contact surface, which can make close contact with the end plane or arc surface of the leaf spring. Its position can be adjusted by sliding the slider laterally left and right along the groove 4. The outer surface of the chord length positioning plate 6 is aligned with the chord length scale 7 of the chord length positioning plate 2 for directly reading the chord length dimension of the leaf spring. The graduation value of the chord length scale 7 is 1mm.
[0027] Furthermore, a T-shaped groove 4 is formed on the inner surface of the chord height positioning plate 3. A slider (not shown in the figure) is installed in the groove 4 and is fixedly connected to the chord height positioning plate 8. The chord height positioning plate 8 is an L-shaped metal plate with a thickness of 5mm. Its inner side is polished to form a smooth contact surface, which can make close contact with the outer arc surface of the leaf spring. The chord height positioning plate 8 is allowed to slide longitudinally back and forth along the axial direction of the chord height positioning plate 3, that is, in the vertical direction. Its outer surface is aligned with the chord height scale 9 of the chord height positioning plate 3 for directly reading the chord height dimension of the leaf spring. The graduation value of the chord height scale 9 is 1mm.
[0028] Furthermore, the movement path of the chord length positioning plate 6 is along the transverse straight line X-axis direction of the slide groove 4 of the chord length positioning plate 2, and the movement path of the chord height positioning plate 8 is along the longitudinal straight line Y-axis direction of the slide groove 4 of the chord height positioning plate 3. The two paths intersect perpendicularly in the plane of the detection base 1 at the "L"-shaped corner of the chord length positioning plate 2 and the chord height positioning plate 3. Since the slide grooves 4 of the chord length positioning plate 2 and the chord height positioning plate 3 are respectively arranged on their inner surfaces and do not overlap, and the sliders only move within their respective slide grooves 4, the sliding processes of the chord length positioning plate 6 and the chord height positioning plate 8 do not interfere with each other, and their positions can be independently adjusted to adapt to the detection requirements of leaf springs of different sizes.
[0029] The working principle is as follows: First, place the leaf spring to be tested flat on the testing base 1, with one end of the leaf spring facing the chord length positioning plate 2 and the outer arc surface facing the chord height positioning plate 3.
[0030] Next, slide the chord length positioning plate 6 along the transverse T-shaped groove 4 of the chord length positioning plate 2 until its inner polished contact surface is in close contact with the end plane (or arc surface) of the leaf spring. At this time, the outer surface of the chord length positioning plate 6 is aligned with the chord length scale 7 of the chord length positioning plate 2, and the chord length value L is read directly. At the same time, the center positioning head 5, which shares the groove 4 with the chord length positioning plate 6, slides synchronously with the slider. Its hard plastic cone tip will point to the chord height auxiliary scale 10 on the detection base 1. By observing the scale value aligned with the tip, the center point of the chord length can be calibrated, and the chord height auxiliary scale 10 located at the chord height position can be determined. The value read by the chord height auxiliary scale 10 is compared with the chord height length measured by the subsequent chord height scale 9 to ensure the accuracy of the value.
[0031] Subsequently, the chord height positioning plate 8 is slid along the longitudinal T-shaped groove 4 of the chord height positioning plate 3, so that its inner polished contact surface is in close contact with the highest point (or designated measurement point) of the outer arc surface of the leaf spring; at this time, the outer surface of the chord height positioning plate 8 is aligned with the chord height scale 9 of the chord height positioning plate 3, and the chord height value H is read directly. Since the movement paths of the chord length positioning plate 6 and the chord height positioning plate 8 are perpendicular and do not interfere with each other, their positions can be adjusted independently to adapt to leaf springs of different sizes.
[0032] Finally, by measuring the chord length L and chord height H, the radius R of the leaf spring is calculated using the radian calculation formula, and then the radian value of the central angle is obtained, thus completing the accurate detection of the leaf spring's radian.
[0033] Any technical solution that achieves the above-mentioned technical effects by utilizing the technical solution described in this utility model, or by designing a similar technical solution inspired by the technical solution described in this utility model, falls within the protection scope of this utility model.
