In many production processes, the accurate detection of the height difference of objects is a crucial task, and the detection results are directly related to the performance, safety and service life of the product. For example, in the manufacturing of electronic components, the height consistency of chip pins is crucial for the stable connection of circuits. In the production of automotive parts, the precise control of the height difference between brake discs and brake pads is related to driving safety. In the machining industry, the height difference of the assembly surfaces of parts affects the operating accuracy and reliability of the entire mechanical system.

[0003] In industrial production and various scenarios involving the detection of height differences between objects, there is a need for an accurate, efficient, and adaptable detection mechanism. Traditional detection methods suffer from insufficient accuracy and poor adaptability to objects with different shapes and surface conditions. For example, when detecting the height difference of objects with irregular surfaces or certain positional deviations, traditional mechanisms may not be able to obtain accurate data or may require a complex adjustment process.

[0004] To address this issue, we designed a free-floating height difference detection mechanism. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a free-floating height difference detection mechanism to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a free-floating height difference detection mechanism, including a bottom base, a vertical support seat installed above the bottom base, a floating connection assembly installed above the bottom base, a detection head body disposed above the floating connection assembly, the floating connection assembly including a mounting flange, a guide post installed above the mounting flange, a guide sleeve slidably fitted on the guide post, a spring fixedly installed at the bottom end of the guide post, the bottom end of the spring being fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the guide sleeve, and the top end of the guide post penetrating to the top of the guide sleeve and fixedly connected to the detection head body.

[0007] Furthermore, the mounting flange is equipped with a long-stroke chain.

[0008] Furthermore, a rotating base is installed above the bottom base, and the bottom end of the floating connection assembly is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the rotating base.

[0010] Furthermore, a buffer pad is provided on the top of the detection head body.

[0011] Furthermore, the links of the long-stroke chain are provided with a wear-resistant coating, which is made of tungsten carbide.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the detection head body is slidably connected to the guide post and the guide sleeve through the guide post, and there is a spring at the bottom of the guide post. During the detection, the detection head body is subjected to forces in different directions, and the guide post can slide up and down in the guide sleeve. The spring is compressed or stretched, so that the detection head body can float freely, which can adapt to the detection requirements of different height differences, and ensure accurate contact with the object being detected and complete the detection.

[0013] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The long-stroke chain provides additional connection and stability for the entire mechanism, limiting excessive displacement of the floating connection components and the main body of the detection head in complex testing scenarios, ensuring stable testing. A buffer pad is installed on the top of the detection head, effectively absorbing and buffering impact forces during floating, protecting internal precision components from damage, and extending the service life of the detection head. Several mounting holes are provided around the bottom base, facilitating stable installation of the mechanism onto the required work platform, ensuring operational stability, and preventing shaking from affecting testing accuracy. The long-stroke chain links are coated with a tungsten carbide wear-resistant coating, greatly improving chain wear resistance, reducing wear caused by friction during long-term use, lowering the risk of chain breakage or damage, extending chain life, reducing replacement frequency, lowering maintenance costs, ensuring continuous and stable operation of the mechanism, and improving testing efficiency and reliability.

[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] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a free-floating height difference detection mechanism, including a bottom base 1, a vertical support seat 2 installed above the bottom base 1, a floating connection assembly 9 installed above the bottom base 1, a detection head body 7 arranged above the floating connection assembly 9, the floating connection assembly 9 including a mounting flange 4, a guide post 10 installed above the mounting flange 4, a guide sleeve 5 slidably sleeved on the guide post 10, a spring 6 fixedly installed at the bottom end of the guide post 10, the bottom end of the spring 6 fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the guide sleeve 5, and the top end of the guide post 10 extending through to the top of the guide sleeve 5 and fixedly connected to the detection head body 7.

[0021] In practice, during the detection operation, the detection head body 7 is subjected to forces in different directions. Since the guide post 10 is slidably sleeved inside the guide sleeve 5, and the bottom end of the guide post 10 is connected to the inner bottom wall of the guide sleeve 5 through the spring 6, under the action of force, the guide post 10 will slide up and down inside the guide sleeve 5, and the spring 6 will be compressed or stretched, thereby allowing the detection head body 7 to float freely to adapt to the detection requirements of different height differences, ensuring that the detection head body 7 can accurately contact the object being detected and complete the detection work.

[0022] See Figure 1-4 The mounting flange 4 is equipped with a long-stroke chain 3, and a rotating base 11 is installed above the bottom base 1. The bottom end of the floating connection component 9 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the rotating base 11. Several mounting holes 8 are opened around the bottom base 1. A buffer pad is provided on the top of the detection head body 7. The surface of the chain links of the long-stroke chain 3 is provided with a wear-resistant coating, and the material of the wear-resistant coating is tungsten carbide coating.

[0023] In practical implementation, based on the above, the long-stroke chain 3 provides additional connection and stability for the entire floating detection height difference mechanism. In some complex detection scenarios, the long-stroke chain 3 can limit excessive displacement of the floating connection component 9 and the detection head body 7, ensuring the stability of the detection process. When the detection head body 7 is subjected to a large external impact during floating, the buffer pad set on its top can effectively absorb and buffer the impact force, protecting the precision components inside the detection head body 7 from damage and extending the service life of the detection head body 7. Several mounting holes 8 opened around the bottom base 1 facilitate the stable installation of the free-floating detection height difference mechanism onto the required work platform, ensuring the stability of the mechanism during operation and avoiding the impact of shaking on detection accuracy. The tungsten carbide wear-resistant coating on the surface of the chain links of the long-stroke chain 3 greatly improves the wear resistance of the chain. During long-term use, the chain will continuously rub against surrounding components. The tungsten carbide coating can effectively resist this wear, reduce the degree of chain wear, and reduce the risk of chain breakage or damage due to wear. This extends the service life of the long-stroke chain 3, reduces the frequency of chain replacement, lowers maintenance costs, and ensures that the entire free-floating height difference detection mechanism can operate continuously and stably, improving the efficiency and reliability of detection work.

[0024] Working principle: When the detection head body 7 is subjected to forces in different directions, the guide post 10 slides up and down within the guide sleeve 5, and its bottom end is connected to the inner bottom wall of the guide sleeve 5 via a spring 6. The spring 6 is compressed or stretched, allowing the detection head body 7 to float freely, adapting to different height difference detection requirements, ensuring accurate contact with the object being detected and completing the detection, providing additional connection and stability assurance, limiting excessive offset of the floating connection component 9 and the detection head body 7 in complex detection scenarios, ensuring stable detection process. The top of the detection head body 7 is designed to effectively absorb and buffer impact forces when subjected to large external forces during floating, protecting internal precision components and extending service life. The bottom base 1 has openings on all four sides, facilitating stable installation of the mechanism onto the work platform, ensuring operational stability, and preventing shaking from affecting detection accuracy. The long-stroke chain 3 has a surface finish on the chain links, improving chain wear resistance, resisting wear caused by friction with surrounding components during long-term use, reducing the risk of chain breakage or damage, extending service life, reducing replacement frequency, reducing maintenance costs, ensuring continuous and stable operation of the mechanism, and improving detection efficiency and reliability.
