[0031] This invention proposes a glass drop ball testing device, which aims to form a sealed space by covering the placement shell with a cover, thereby effectively preventing glass fragments from splashing out when a steel ball hits a glass sample.
[0032] Please see Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment of this utility model, the glass ball dropping test device 10 includes:
[0033] Ball dropper 1, the ball dropper 1 being used to drop a steel ball;
[0034] Placement housing 2 is located below the ball dropper 1. Placement housing 2 forms a placement cavity 21 with an opening 211, and glass is placed in the placement cavity 21.
[0035] Cover 3, one side of which is movably connected to one side wall of the housing 2;
[0036] A driving component 4 is installed inside the outer wall of the housing 2 and is driven to the cover 3 so that the cover 3 can be opened or closed at the opening 211.
[0037] In this embodiment, the glass drop ball testing device 10 includes a drop ball component 1 and a placement housing 2. The drop ball component 1 is provided with a steel ball, and the placement housing 2 is located below the drop ball component 1. The glass is placed inside the placement housing 2. When the steel ball falls, it can hit the glass. It should be noted that the drop ball component 1 is prior art, and this application does not limit it here.
[0038] Specifically, the housing 2 forms a placement cavity 21 with an opening 211. The glass is placed inside the placement cavity 21. One side of the cover 3 is movably connected to one side wall of the housing 2, and the drive member 4 is driven to connect to the cover 3. Thus, under the drive of the drive member 4, the cover 3 can open or close the opening 211. When the cover 3 opens the opening 211, the glass is placed inside the housing 2. When the steel ball falls, it can fall into the housing 2 through the opening 211. Subsequently, under the drive of the drive member 4, the cover 3 closes onto the housing 2, thus forming a sealed space, which can effectively prevent glass fragments from splashing out when the steel ball hits the glass sample.
[0039] In one implementation, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The cover 3 has a first hinge seat 31 and two first rotating shafts 5 on its two side walls. The two outer side walls of the placement shell 2 have a second hinge seat 22. Each first hinge seat 31 is located on one side of each second hinge seat 22. One side of each first rotating shaft 5 is fixedly connected to the first hinge seat 31, and the other side of each first rotating shaft 5 is rotatably connected to the second hinge seat 22. Thus, under the drive of the drive member 4, the first hinge seat 31 can rotate relative to the second hinge seat 22, thereby realizing the flipping of the cover 3 relative to the placement shell 2, so that it can be smoothly placed on the placement shell 2 or opened. The structure is simple and practical.
[0040] In one implementation, please refer to Figure 4 The two first rotating shafts 5 are also provided with a connecting shaft 5a on the side that passes through the second hinge seat 22. This arrangement is to ensure the stable connection between the two first rotating shafts 5 so that the cover 3 can be smoothly flipped relative to the shell. It should be noted that the two first rotating shafts 5 and the connecting shaft 5a can be an integrally formed structure.
[0041] In one implementation, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The glass ball dropping test device 10 also includes a mounting platform 6, which is located on an outer side wall of the housing 2 along its width. The driving component 4 is mounted on the mounting platform 6 and is driven to the side of the cover 3 opposite to the opening 211. By setting the mounting platform 6, the connection between the driving component 4 and the cover 3 is ensured, so that the driving component 4 can smoothly and stably flip the cover 3. It should be noted that the driving component 4 is driven to the side of the cover 3 opposite to the opening 211, and the driving component 4 can be a motor, cylinder, or other driving component, which is not limited in this application.
[0042] In one implementation, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The glass ball dropping test device 10 also includes two elastic elements 7. One side of each elastic element 7 is connected to the two opposite outer walls of the cover 3, and the other side of each elastic element 7 is connected to the two opposite outer walls of the placement housing 2. By setting two elastic elements 7, it is ensured that the cover 3 can be stably placed on the placement housing 2, so as to further ensure that glass fragments will not fly out.
[0043] In this embodiment, the glass drop ball testing device 10 further includes two elastic elements 7. One side of each elastic element 7 is connected to the two opposite outer walls of the cover 3, and the other side of each elastic element 7 is connected to the two opposite outer walls of the placement housing 2. It should be noted that protrusions connected to the elastic elements 7 are provided on both the two outer walls of the placement housing 2 and the two outer walls of the cover 3, thereby improving the stability of the elastic elements 7 installed on the placement housing 2 and the cover 3. When the cover 3 needs to be closed on the placement housing 2, the driving member 4 drives the cover 3 to move towards the placement housing 2, and under the tension of the two elastic elements 7, the cover 3 can be smoothly and stably closed on the placement housing 2, and glass fragments cannot be splashed out from the placement housing 2.
[0044] In one implementation, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The elastic element 7 is a tension spring, which ensures that the cover 3 can be stably placed on the housing 2, and further ensures that glass fragments will not fly out.
[0045] In one implementation, please refer to Figure 2 The driving component 4 is installed on an outer side wall of the placement housing 2 along its length direction. The driving component 4 is driven to the side of the cover 3 facing the opening 211. That is, under the drive of the driving component 4, the cover 3 can be stably closed on the placement housing 2.
[0046] In one implementation, please refer to Figure 2 The glass ball dropping test device 10 also includes a connecting rod 8 and two second rotating shafts 9. One end of the driving member 4 is driven to one side of the connecting rod 8. One side of each second rotating shaft 9 is connected to each first hinge seat 31, and the other side of each second rotating shaft 9 is rotatably connected to each second hinge seat 22. The connecting rod 8 is connected to one of the second rotating shafts 9 on the side that extends out of the first hinge seat 31. Under the drive of the driving member 4 and the connecting rod 8, the cover 3 can stably cover the placement housing 2, thereby ensuring that glass fragments will not fly out.
[0047] In this embodiment, the glass ball dropping test device 10 also includes a connecting rod 8 and a second rotating shaft 9. The driving member 4 is installed on an outer side wall of the housing 2 along its length, and one end of the driving member 4 drives one side of the connecting rod 8. One side of each second rotating shaft 9 is connected to each first hinge seat 31, and the other side of each second rotating shaft 9 is rotatably connected to each second hinge seat 22. A connecting rod 8 is connected to one side of a second rotating shaft 9 that extends out of the first hinge seat 31. That is, when the connecting rod 8 is driven by the driving member 4, it rotates and also drives the second rotating shaft 9 to rotate, thereby driving the first hinge seat 31 to rotate relative to the second hinge seat 22, thereby driving the cover 3 to rotate.
[0048] In one implementation, please refer to Figure 2 Two drive components 4 and two connecting rods 8 are provided. Each drive component 4 is installed on the two outer side walls along the length of the housing 2. Each drive component 4 is driven to one side of each connecting rod 8. The other side of each connecting rod 8 is connected to each second rotating shaft 9. By providing two drive components 4 and two connecting rods 8, it is ensured that the cover 3 can be opened smoothly and that the cover 3 can be stably closed on the housing 2, thereby ensuring that glass fragments will not fly out.
[0049] In one implementation, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The glass ball dropping test device 10 also includes a control component and a sensor. The sensor is located in the placement cavity 21 to sense the steel ball. The control component is electrically connected to the sensor, the ball dropping component 1 and the drive component 4. Through the sensor and the control component, it is ensured that the cover 3 can be smoothly and quickly closed on the placement housing 2.
[0050] In this embodiment, the glass ball dropping test device 10 also includes a control component and a sensor. The sensor is located in the placement cavity 21 to sense the steel ball. That is, when the steel ball falls from the ball dropping component 1, the sensor in the placement housing 2 detects the steel ball and transmits a signal to the control component. The control component then controls the drive component 4 to move, thereby ensuring that the cover 3 can quickly close onto the placement housing 2, so that the glass fragments can be completely blocked inside the placement housing 2.
