Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of strength performance testing and inspection of components, and in particular to a dynamic and static torsion testing system. Background Technology

[0002] A torsion testing apparatus, also known as a torsion testing machine, is an experimental device used to measure the mechanical properties of materials or components under torsional loads. Its core function is to evaluate key parameters of materials, such as torsional strength, shear modulus, and yield strength, by applying torque and measuring the deformation response. It is widely used in materials research and development, quality control, and engineering structural design.

[0003] A search of Chinese patents revealed publication number CN217688357U, which discloses a rigid shaft torsion testing device. The device includes a torsion test stand and further comprises: a first mounting bracket, a supporting square tube mounted above the first mounting bracket, an elastic clamp mounted on the upper part of the supporting square tube, a second mounting bracket mounted in the middle of the elastic clamp, a driven shaft flange fixedly connected to the second mounting bracket, a first universal joint mounted at one end of the driven shaft flange, and a first mounting fixture mounted on the first universal joint; a mounting base is provided on the torsion test stand, a middle-layer bracket is mounted on the upper part of the mounting base, an upper pressure plate is connected to the middle-layer bracket, a torque drive assembly is fixedly connected to one end of the upper pressure plate, a drive shaft flange is fixedly connected to the upper pressure plate, a second universal joint is fixedly connected to the drive shaft flange, and a second mounting fixture is fixedly connected to the second universal joint.

[0004] Traditional torsion testing equipment is mostly static and cannot apply forward and reverse torque fatigue testing to components at a certain frequency. It can only test one component at a time, the fixture cannot accommodate more samples, the fixture has high maintenance costs, low frequency, and long testing time.

[0005] Other testing devices on the market use a single testing method, namely: directly twisting the component to break under static test conditions and observing the maximum torque value, or continuously under dynamic fatigue test conditions until the component is fatigued to fracture and observing the fatigue life curve. Such tests cannot simulate the actual service conditions of materials and thus cannot provide effective data support for the research and development of new materials. In order to solve the above problems, we propose a dynamic and static torsion testing system. Utility Model Content

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution and setting up a protective cover, it is possible to prevent the debris generated when parts break from splashing out and accidentally injuring the operator.

[0015] The present invention is further configured such that a triangular plate is bolted between the support plate and the base.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the stability of the support plate is improved by setting a triangular plate.

[0017] The present invention is further configured such that the surface of the protective cover is provided with a transparent glass window.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution and setting up a transparent glass window, the test status of the components can be observed in real time.

[0019] The present invention is further configured such that a mesh cover is installed on the surface of the torsion actuator.

[0035] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The dynamic and static torsion testing system includes a base 1, a torsion actuator 2 bolted to the top of the base 1, a coupling 3 fixedly connected to the output end of the torsion actuator 2, a rotating shaft 4 fixedly connected to the other end of the coupling 3, a first bearing seat 5 mounted on the surface of the rotating shaft 4 and bolted to the top of the base 1, a clamp 6 mounted on the rotating shaft 4, an adapter 7 bolted to the inner wall of the clamp 6, a T-slot 8 opened on the top of the base 1, a T-block 9 slidably connected to the inner wall of the T-slot 8, a tailstock 10 bolted to the top of the T-block 9, a drive mechanism 11 set at the bottom of the tailstock 10, and a torque sensor 12 mounted on the surface of the tailstock 10. Through the electro-hydraulic servo closed-loop control principle, the torsion actuator 2 adopts hydrostatic bearing technology, featuring fast response speed, high precision, wide bandwidth, and multiple waveform types. It can perform torque and torsion angle control tests, operates smoothly and reliably, and can apply regular waveform and arbitrary waveform tests to the specimen. Its torque and torsion angle states can be switched arbitrarily, improving practicality and applicability.

[0036] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3The drive mechanism 11 includes a motor 18, which is bolted to the surface of the base 1. A lead screw 19 is installed at the output end of the motor 18, and a second bearing seat 20 is installed at the other end of the lead screw 19. The second bearing seat 20 is bolted to the inner wall of the base 1. A nut 21 is threaded onto the surface of the lead screw 19, and the top of the nut 21 is bolted to the bottom of the tailstock 10. By setting up the drive mechanism 11, the rotation of the motor 18 causes the lead screw 19 to move the nut 21. The movement of the nut 21 causes the tailstock 10 to move the torque sensor 12. This can be adjusted according to the length of the parts, improving applicability.

[0037] refer to Figure 1 A protective cover 22 is bolted to the top of the base 1. By setting the protective cover 22, the debris generated when the parts are twisted off is prevented from splashing out and accidentally injuring the operator.

[0038] refer to Figure 1 The protective cover 22 has a transparent glass window 24 on its surface, which allows for real-time observation of the test status of the components.

[0039] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A mesh cover 25 is installed on the surface of the torsion actuator 2. By setting the mesh cover 25, the torsion actuator 2 is protected and the installation is improved.

[0040] Example 2:

[0041] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 A support plate 13 is bolted to the surface of the base 1. A threaded hole 14 is opened at the bottom of the support plate 13. A screw 15 is threaded to the inner wall of the threaded hole 14. A pad 16 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the screw 15. A first nut 17 is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the screw 15.

[0042] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A triangular plate 23 is bolted between the support plate 13 and the base 1. By setting the triangular plate 23, the stability of the support plate 13 is improved.

[0043] refer to Figure 6 The screw 15 is threaded with a second nut 26. By setting the second nut 26, the screw 15 is fixed and its stability is improved.

[0044] Brief description of the usage process: First, turn on the motor 18. The rotation of the motor 18 drives the lead screw 19, causing the lead screw nut 21 to move. The movement of the lead screw nut 21 drives the tailstock 10 to move, and the movement of the tailstock 10 drives the torque sensor 12 to move. Move the torque sensor 12 to the right to increase the distance between the torque sensor 12 and the clamp 6. Then, install one end of the component onto the torque sensor 12. Then, the motor 18 rotates in the opposite direction, causing the torque sensor 12 to drive the component to move, so that the spline part of the other end of the component is inserted into the spline inside the adapter 7, fixing the component. It can be matched according to different spline types. The adapter 7 is sufficient; there is no need to replace the entire fixture 6 body. Then, the torsion actuator 2 is opened and tested. During the test, the torque sensor 12 transmits the test results to the controller, which displays them on the screen. The torsion actuator 2 can provide forward and reverse torque fatigue tests to the parts. By adjusting the position of the tailstock 10, parts of different lengths can be tested. By loosening the second nut 26 and then rotating the first nut 17, the screw 15 rotates. The rotation of the screw 15 changes the height of the base 1, which can be adjusted according to the level of the device for convenient use.

[0045] It should be noted that parts have a lifespan and can be replaced during regular maintenance when they no longer meet performance requirements. Deterioration in performance due to prolonged use of parts is not a design defect of this application.
