Abstract
Description
An auxiliary device for drilling composition samples from aluminum alloy ingot specimens. Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum alloy production technology, specifically to an auxiliary device for drilling component samples from aluminum alloy ingot specimens. Background Technology
[0002] Aluminum alloys, widely used in aerospace, automotive manufacturing, and machining, rely heavily on precise composition for product quality and performance. In the aluminum alloy production process, compositional testing of aluminum alloy ingots is a crucial step in quality control, and drilling compositional samples from these ingots is a fundamental operation for this purpose. Currently, the industry commonly uses a drilling machine with a vise to hold the aluminum alloy ingot sample for drilling. However, this traditional method has several drawbacks. Because most aluminum alloy ingot samples are large, the drilling process typically involves fixing the sample in the vise, selecting a drilling location, drilling away the oxide film on the sample surface, cleaning the sample, and continuing to drill to the maximum depth to collect the debris. During drilling, this debris is easily scattered, making collection difficult and contaminating samples that land elsewhere. Once contaminated, these samples cannot be used for accurate compositional analysis, severely impacting the reliability and efficiency of the test results. Furthermore, issues such as incomplete sample collection and contamination can easily lead to the need for resampling and testing, greatly increasing testing costs and time costs, and reducing production efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0003] This invention provides an auxiliary device for drilling component samples from aluminum alloy ingot specimens to solve the problems mentioned above.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] An auxiliary device for drilling component samples from aluminum alloy ingot specimens includes a belt, an automatic belt buckle is movably connected to one side of the belt, a sample sleeve is fixedly connected to the other side of the belt, and an adjustment tooth is provided on the side away from the sample sleeve.
[0006] Furthermore, a connecting buckle is provided on the belt between the sample sleeve and the automatic belt buckle, and a sample sleeve nut is provided between the connecting buckle and the automatic belt buckle.
[0007] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0008] This utility model provides an auxiliary device for drilling component samples from aluminum alloy ingot specimens. It consists of a long belt and a sample sleeve connected to the belt. The sample sleeve prevents sample splashing. The belt fixes the sample sleeve to the aluminum alloy ingot specimen. Adjustable teeth are fixed to the belt to secure the belt and the sample. Multiple sample sleeve nuts are connected to the belt via buckles. This device fixes the sample sleeve to the surface of the specimen, effectively preventing sample splashing and solving the problem of splashing during component sample drilling from aluminum alloy ingot specimens. It also ensures a high success rate for sample collection on the first attempt, thus avoiding cumbersome procedures such as resampling and testing. This device addresses the current problem of low component drilling efficiency in aluminum alloy ingot specimens due to the lack of a debris-blocking structure, which causes debris to splash everywhere, making collection difficult and resulting in insufficient sample collection.

[0012] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0013] As shown in Figure 1, an auxiliary device for drilling component samples of aluminum alloy ingots includes a belt 5, an automatic belt buckle 6 is movably connected to one side of the belt 5, a sample sleeve 2 is fixedly connected to the other side of the belt 5, and an adjustment tooth 1 is provided on the side away from the sample sleeve 2.
[0014] A connecting buckle 3 is provided on the belt 5 between the sample sleeve 2 and the automatic belt buckle 6, and a sample sleeve nut 4 is provided between the connecting buckle 3 and the automatic belt buckle 6.
[0015] This device consists of a long belt 5 and a sample sleeve 2 connected to the belt 5. The sample sleeve 2 serves to prevent sample splashing. The belt 5 fixes the sample sleeve 2 to the aluminum alloy ingot sample. One end of the belt 5 is an automatic belt buckle 6, and the other end is smooth. Adjusting teeth 2 are fixed on the belt 5 to securely fix the belt 5 to the sample. The middle of the belt 5 is connected to the sample sleeve nut 4 through a connecting buckle 3. The sample sleeve 2 is connected to the sample sleeve nut 4 through a nut. Since it is mainly used for sampling 535mm ingot sample pieces, five sample sleeve nuts 4 can be connected to the belt 5 through the connecting buckle 3. The sample sleeve 2 is cylindrical, made of steel, and is screwed onto the sample sleeve nut 4. The sample sleeve 2 is 80mm high and 75mm in diameter.
[0016] In practical applications, when drilling aluminum alloy ingot sample specimens, the specimen is clamped in a drilling machine vise. The oxide film on the surface of the specimen is removed by drilling, and the specimen is cleaned. The auxiliary device is then attached to the specimen, ensuring that the sample sleeve 2 covers the sampling hole. It is then secured by the automatic belt buckle 6 and the adjusting gear 1. The specimen is then drilled using the drilling machine. Due to the obstruction of the sample sleeve 2, most of the specimen is concentrated inside the sample sleeve 2. If another or multiple sample holes are needed for drilling, the automatic belt buckle 6 is used to move the sample sleeve 2 over the sampling hole, and the specimen is drilled. Alternatively, when starting to drill the specimen, the sample sleeve nut 4 is used to fix the sampling hole. After drilling one specimen, the sample sleeve 2 is simply unscrewed and tightened onto the next sample sleeve nut 4 to continue drilling. This process is repeated to complete the sampling. After drilling is completed, the auxiliary device is removed, and a clean brush is used to sweep the specimen into the sample bag, thus completing the sampling operation. The entire process effectively solves the problem of splashing during the drilling of aluminum alloy ingot sample specimens and ensures a high success rate for sample collection on the first attempt, thereby avoiding complicated procedures such as resampling and testing. Therefore, the device has good practicality.
