[0025] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a compressive strength testing mechanism for building blocks includes a base plate 1 and a positioning component 2 and a testing component 3 disposed on the top of the base plate 1 and cooperating with each other.
[0026] The positioning assembly 2 includes an extension frame 21, a positioning frame 22, an adjusting cylinder 23, and a swing rod 24. The extension frame 21 is fixed on the base plate 1. The positioning frame 22 is located above the extension frame 21. The bottom left edge of the positioning frame 22 is rotatably connected to the top of the extension frame 21. The adjusting cylinder 23 is located to the right of the positioning frame 22. The fixed end of the adjusting cylinder 23 is rotatably connected to the positioning frame 22. One end of the swing rod 24 is rotatably connected to the telescopic end of the adjusting cylinder 23, and the other end of the swing rod 24 is rotatably connected to the right outer wall of the positioning frame 22.
[0027] The test assembly 3 includes two support frames 31 fixed on the base plate 1 and symmetrically arranged on the front and rear sides of the heightening frame 21, two clamping units 33 arranged between the support frames 31 and both located above the positioning frame 22 and respectively on the left and right, and a test unit 34 arranged between the support frames 31, between the two clamping units 33 and above the positioning frame 22.
[0028] The positioning frame 22 includes two vertically arranged and symmetrically distributed end plates 221, two vertically fixed between the two end plates 221 and symmetrically arranged front and back, and at least one anti-fall beam 223 horizontally fixed between the two end plates 221 and located between the two side plates 222. The lower edge of the left end plate 221 is rotatably connected to the top of the heightening frame 21, and the other end of the swing rod 24 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the right end plate 221.
[0029] Each side plate 222 has multiple stepped grooves 2222 that are continuously arranged from the inside out and whose height increases sequentially on the upper edge.
[0030] The clamping unit 33 includes a first crossbeam 331 that is horizontally fixed between the support frames 31, a clamping cylinder 332 fixed on the first crossbeam 331, and a clamping block 333 fixed on the telescopic end of the clamping cylinder 332. The telescopic end of the clamping cylinder 332 is set vertically downward.
[0031] The end of the clamping block 333 has an arc surface 3331, and multiple anti-slip protrusions 3332 are formed on the arc surface 3331 outwardly, arranged sequentially along the circumferential direction and parallel to the central axis of the arc surface 3331.
[0032] The test unit 34 includes a second crossbeam 341 that is horizontally fixed between the support frames 31, a test cylinder 342 fixed on the second crossbeam 341, a stress sensor 343 fixed on the telescopic end of the test cylinder 342, and a conical test head 344 that is vertically fixed on the sensing end of the stress sensor 343. The telescopic end of the test cylinder 342 is set vertically downward.
[0033] Each stepped groove 2222 has a slope 2223 formed on its bottom surface, with the outer edge of the slope 2223 being lower than its inner edge.
[0034] Each stepped groove 2222 has a horizontally arranged support beam 224 fixed on its outer wall, and the two ends of each support beam 224 are fixed on two end plates 221 respectively.
[0035] Each end plate 221 has a downwardly inclined extension plate 2211 formed on its lower edge toward the other end plate 221. The front and rear sides of each extension plate 2211 are fixed to the two side plates 222 respectively.
[0036] The top of the seat plate 1 is also fixed with a guide trough 4 that is inclined inside the lifting frame 21. The higher end of the guide trough 4 is fixed to the lower edge of one of the side plates 222 and located below the two extension plates 2211.
[0037] Working principle:
[0038] A positioning layer with different front and rear widths is formed between the inner walls of two stepped grooves 2222 of the same height located on the two side plates 222. A positioning layer of appropriate height is selected according to the shape and size of the building block to be tested, and the building block is placed flat in the selected positioning layer. The front and rear sides of the bottom of the building block are respectively attached to the bottom surface of the two stepped grooves 2222 where the positioning layer is located. If the shape of the building block is rectangular, the two short sides of the rectangular building block should be attached to the bottom surface of the two stepped grooves 2222 where the positioning layer is located. The two long sides of the rectangular building block are spaced a certain distance from the two end plates 221.
[0039] Subsequently, the telescopic ends of the clamping cylinders 332 in each clamping unit 33 are driven to extend outward to drive each clamping block 333 to move downward until the ends of each clamping block 333 are pressed against the top outer wall of the building block, thereby completing the positioning of the building block and preventing the building block from shifting during testing; then, the telescopic ends of the test cylinders 342 in the test unit 34 are driven to extend outward to drive the conical test head 344 to move downward with the help of the stress sensor 343, thereby causing the end of the conical test head 344 to continuously press the building block. When the building block is crushed, the pressure value sensed by the stress sensor 343 is the compressive yield strength of the building block (existing technology).
[0040] After being crushed, the building blocks break into multiple small pieces and fall into the guide chute 4, where they are automatically discharged without the need for manual cleaning or collection. Furthermore, since each stepped chute 2222 has a slope 2223 on its bottom surface, the debris generated during the crushing of the building blocks does not remain on the bottom surface of the stepped chute 2222, but falls into the guide chute 4 along the slope 2223, thus eliminating the need to clean the stepped chute 2222 and allowing for immediate testing.
[0041] Meanwhile, this utility model can also detect the compressive strength of the conical test head 344 when it is not in perpendicular contact with the building block. Before the test, the telescopic end of the drive adjustment cylinder 23 retracts inward or extends outward to drive one end of the swing rod 24 to rotate. Since the bottom left edge of the positioning frame 22 is rotatably connected to the top of the heightening frame 21, the other end of the swing rod 24 drives the right side of the positioning frame 22 to gradually move upward so that the positioning frame 22 gradually tilts.
[0042] Then, the telescopic ends of the pressing cylinders 332 in each pressing unit 33 are still driven to extend outward to drive each pressing block 333 to move downward. Since the end of the pressing block 333 is set as an arc surface 3331, even if the building block in the positioning frame 22 is tilted, a part of the arc surface 3331 can still press the top outer wall of the building block. The setting of the anti-slip ridge 3332 increases the friction between the arc surface 3331 and the building block.
[0043] This invention can test building blocks of various sizes. Simply select the appropriate positioning layer and rotate the building block as needed. Even if the size of the building block to be tested exceeds the standard, there is no need to cut the building block, thus simplifying the testing steps and expanding the scope of application. At the same time, it can automatically discharge the building block fragments that are broken during testing, avoiding debris residue and eliminating the cleaning step, thus making it convenient to use and achieving the effect of saving time and effort, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0044] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it; although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
