Description

An industrial CT stage Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of industrial CT technology, specifically an industrial CT stage. Background Technology

[0002] Industrial computed tomography (CT) technology, as an important non-destructive testing method, is widely used in aerospace, automotive manufacturing, and materials science, enabling high-precision imaging of the internal structure of objects. The industrial CT stage is the core component of the CT system, responsible for supporting and precisely positioning the sample to be tested, ensuring stability and accuracy during the scanning process.

[0003] Existing industrial CT stages are generally well-designed to accommodate samples with regular shapes and sizes, but they often exhibit significant shortcomings when dealing with irregular samples. Due to their unique shapes, irregular samples are difficult to stably support and fix on existing stages, making them prone to displacement or jitter during scanning, thus affecting the accuracy and reliability of the scan. Furthermore, the sample clamps on the top of existing stages are mostly made of traditional materials such as metal or plastic. While metal materials offer high strength, their weight increases the overall mass of the stage, affecting movement accuracy and increasing energy consumption. Plastic materials, although lighter, lack sufficient strength and wear resistance, and are prone to wear after prolonged use, affecting clamping stability and lifespan. More importantly, the thermal stability deficiencies of these traditional materials may lead to deformation at high temperatures, further impacting the quality of CT imaging.

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention provides an improved industrial CT stage. Through optimized design, this stage not only accommodates regular samples but also significantly enhances its support and fixation capabilities for irregular samples, ensuring the stability and detection accuracy of various samples during scanning. Furthermore, its top sample clamp is made of carbon fiber, fully utilizing the lightweight, high strength, and excellent thermal stability of carbon fiber to significantly improve the overall performance and lifespan of the stage. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the above problems, this utility model provides an industrial CT stage, which features lightweight, high strength and wear resistance, adaptability to unconventional samples, and thermal stability.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: an industrial CT stage includes a support base, a fixing rod, a first sample stage, a second sample stage, and multiple clamping blocks. The support base is fixedly connected to the first sample stage through the fixing rod. The first sample stage is slidably connected to the second sample stage through screws. The surfaces of the first sample stage and the second sample stage are evenly distributed with the same number of preset holes. One end of the screw is provided with a knob. Rotating the adjustment knob can make the screw rotate, so that the first sample stage and the second sample stage move closer or further apart. The clamping blocks can be inserted into the preset holes.

[0007] Furthermore, there are nine pre-set holes.

[0008] Furthermore, there are four clamping blocks.

[0009] Furthermore, multiple support rods run through the first and second sample stages.

[0010] Furthermore, the support rod is parallel to the screw.

[0011] Furthermore, there are two support rods, namely the first support rod and the second support rod.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] This invention, through its innovative design of a detachable adjustable stage and carbon fiber clamps, effectively solves the shortcomings of existing stages in supporting irregular samples and addressing the deficiencies of clamp materials in terms of weight, strength, wear resistance, and thermal stability. It enhances adaptability: the adjustable stage spacing and flexible clamp installation methods can accommodate various samples, especially irregularly shaped ones. It improves stability and accuracy: the rational support structure and lightweight design of the carbon fiber clamps ensure sample stability and imaging accuracy during scanning. It extends service life: the high strength and wear resistance of the clamp material, combined with thermal stability, optimizes the durability of the stage, making it suitable for various types of CT equipment. This industrial CT stage, through structural innovation and material optimization, significantly improves the practicality and performance of the stage, possessing broad application prospects and practical value.

[0019] It should be noted that in the description of this utility model, the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation.

[0020] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "setting," "installing," "connecting," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, "fixing" can mean a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; a connection can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; a joint can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, and can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0021] Support base 1 and fixing rod 2 are placed on the CT table to support the upper layout stage.

[0022] The first sample stage 3 and the adjustable second sample stage 7 each have nine preset holes 9 evenly distributed on them for placing sample clamp blocks 5. The preset holes 9 do not penetrate the sample stage.

[0023] Screw 6 is used to connect the first sample stage 3 and the second sample stage 7, and the second sample stage 7 is adjusted by screwing the adjusting knob 4 to accommodate samples of different sizes.

[0024] The first sample stage 3 and the second sample stage 7 have a total of four carbon fiber sample clamps 5 in the preset holes 9, which are used for more detailed adjustment to accommodate samples of different sizes.

[0025] The first sample stage 3 and the second sample stage 7 are further limited and supported by the first support rod 801 and the second support rod 802 to ensure that the sample stages are well supported.

[0026] The first support rod 801 and the second support rod 802 are parallel to the screw 6.

[0027] This industrial CT stage includes a bottom support base 1, a fixing rod 2, and a top-separated adjustable first sample stage 3 and a second sample stage 7. The support base 1 and fixing rod 2 are placed on the CT stage, serving as a stable foundation for the entire device and supporting the upper sample stage structure. The top-separated sample stage consists of the first sample stage 3 and the second sample stage 7, achieving flexible functionality through a specific connection and adjustment mechanism.

[0028] The first sample stage 3 and the second sample stage 7 are connected by screws 6, and are limited and provided with additional stability by first support rods 801 and second support rods 802. The user can adjust the screws 6 using knob 4 to change the distance between the first sample stage 3 and the second sample stage 7. This design allows the stage to adaptively adjust according to the size and shape of the sample to be scanned, making it particularly suitable for irregularly shaped samples and ensuring their stability during scanning.

[0029] The upper surfaces of the first sample stage 3 and the second sample stage 7 are each provided with nine pre-set holes 9 for mounting four carbon fiber sample clamping blocks 5. The positions of these clamping blocks 5 can be flexibly adjusted according to the specific shape and size of the sample to achieve precise clamping and fixation. The clamping blocks 5 are made of carbon fiber material, which has the following significant advantages:

[0030] Lightweight: Compared to traditional metal or plastic clamps, carbon fiber materials significantly reduce the overall weight of the stage and improve movement accuracy; High strength and wear resistance: The high strength and wear resistance of carbon fiber significantly extend the service life of the clamps; Thermal stability: Under high temperature environments, carbon fiber clamps can maintain shape and performance stability, avoiding image quality degradation caused by material deformation.

[0031] Rotating knob 4 clockwise decreases the spacing, while rotating it counterclockwise increases the spacing to accommodate samples of different sizes, especially irregularly shaped samples.

[0032] Clamping block 5 installation: Users can select the appropriate preset hole 9 position to install the clamping block according to the shape and size of the sample to be tested. Clamping block 5 adopts a detachable design for easy replacement and maintenance.

[0033] After installing clamp 5, the user can fine-tune the position of clamp 5 in the hole to ensure a tight fit between clamp 5 and the sample, achieving precise clamping. The lightweight nature of carbon fiber clamp 5 makes the adjustment process more convenient and does not place an excessive burden on the stage.

[0034] Sample placement: Place the sample to be tested between the first sample stage 3 and the second sample stage 7, and adjust the distance between the sample stages to a suitable position.

[0035] Clamping block fixation: Four carbon fiber clamping blocks 5 are used to clamp the sample from different directions to ensure that the sample will not be displaced or shaken during scanning.

[0036] Scanning Operation: After sample fixation, the industrial CT equipment is started for scanning. The stable structure of the stage and the precise fixation of the clamps ensure high-quality scanned images.

[0037] Carbon fiber clamps: The clamps are made of carbon fiber material, which has advantages such as lightweight, high strength, wear resistance, and thermal stability. These characteristics not only reduce the overall weight of the stage and improve the movement accuracy, but also extend the service life of the clamps, making them suitable for various working environments, especially for testing tasks under high-temperature conditions.
