[0024] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-5The present invention will be described in further detail as follows:

[0025] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment discloses a concentric adjustment fixture for a dynamic and static universal testing machine, including a crossbeam 1, a pull rod 2, a load sensor 3, an upper fixture 4, and a concentric adjustment mechanism 5. The upper end of the pull rod 2 is engaged with the crossbeam 1, and the lower end is threaded to the internal thread hole of the load sensor 3. The middle part of the pull rod 2 passes through the center hole of the crossbeam 1 and the concentric adjustment mechanism 5 in sequence. The upper fixture 4 is installed below the load sensor 3 through a lead screw 6.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, the concentric adjustment mechanism 5 includes a base 51, an upper concentric adjustment block 52, a lower concentric adjustment block 53, and adjustment screws 54. The base 51 is disposed between the crossbeam 1 and the load sensor 3. The upper concentric adjustment block 52 and the lower concentric adjustment block 53 are respectively disposed at both ends of the base 51, and the upper concentric adjustment block 52 is in spherical contact with the base 51. The base 51 has multiple sets of threaded holes perpendicular to the axial direction. The adjustment screws 54 are threaded to the base 51 and respectively abut against the side walls of the upper concentric adjustment block 52 and the lower concentric adjustment block 53. The adjustment screws 54 are arranged in a circumferential array around the base 51.

[0027] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a tension ring 7 is pressed onto the upper end of the crossbeam 1, and the upper end of the pull rod 2 is threaded to the central threaded hole of the tension ring 7; the tension ring 7 is equipped with a washer 8 and a fastening screw 9, the washer 8 is placed between the tension ring 7 and the crossbeam 1, and in this embodiment there are 8 sets of fastening screws 9, arranged in a circumferential array and threaded to the tension ring 7, and the lower part of the fastening screw 9 abuts against the washer 8; the upper clamp body 4 and the load sensor 3 are locked together by a locking ring 10.

[0028] like Figures 3-4 As shown, the clamping body also includes a clamping base 11, a lifting cylinder 12, and a lower clamping body 13. The cylinder body of the lifting cylinder 12 is connected to the clamping base 11, and the piston part at the other end is connected to the crossbeam 1 via a floating joint. The lifting cylinder 12 is used to adjust the lifting height of the crossbeam 1. The lower clamping body 13 is threadedly connected to the actuator piston rod, which is fixedly connected to the clamping base 11. The upper clamping body 4 and the jaws of the lower clamping body 13 are arranged opposite to each other. Guide rods 15 are symmetrically installed between the clamping base 11 and the crossbeam 1.

[0029] The specific working principle of the concentric adjusting clamp for a dynamic and static universal testing machine of this utility model is as follows:

[0030] When the testing machine is used for testing, the sample is placed between the upper clamping body 4 and the lower clamping body 13. The clamping body is hydraulically driven for clamping. First, tighten the fastening screw 9 on the tension ring 7 to secure the crossbeam 1 to the upper clamping body 4. When the upper clamping body 4 and the lower clamping body 13 are not concentric, tighten the adjusting screw 54 on the upper layer of the base 51. Because the adjusting screw 54 is threaded to the base 51, when the end of the adjusting screw 54 touches the upper concentric adjusting block 52, it will generate a reaction force on the base 51. Also, because the upper end of the base 51 and the lower end of the upper concentric adjusting block 52 are in spherical contact, the upper concentric adjusting block 52 will generate a reaction force on the base 51. The upper end of block 52 is provided with a cylindrical boss, which is inserted into the stop at the lower end of the crossbeam 1 to ensure that the upper concentric adjustment block 52 will not move when subjected to lateral force, and the reaction force will force the base 51 to tilt. Then, tighten the fastening screw 9 in the lower layer of the base 51 that is opposite to the upper layer. Since the pull rod 2 is inserted into the inner hole of the lower concentric adjustment block 53, the lower concentric adjustment block 53 contacts the pull rod 2 and exerts a force on the pull rod 2, forcing the pull rod 2 to deform slightly, thereby achieving the effect of adjusting the clamp to be concentric.

[0031] The above are all preferred embodiments of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape and principle of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
