Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of testing equipment, and more specifically relates to a measuring fixture for the sealing components of a flooded cable. Background Technology

[0002] In dimensional measurements of Seal for Drop Cable, the special nature of its silicone material—made of Shore 20° silicone—makes it too soft and lacks internal structural support, severely affecting the accuracy of the measurements.

[0003] Simply put, Shore 20° silicone has a hardness equivalent to chewing gum, making it extremely soft. When left to stand naturally, it deforms due to its own weight. This characteristic also makes it easy to deform when used as a sealant, as it fills gaps due to connection and compression, resulting in a good sealing effect.

[0004] like Figure 1 The image shows the shape of a seal for a downcomer cable, with connection holes on the side and mounting holes on the top. In actual measurement, the surface and side dimensions of the seal need to be measured. However, due to the properties of silicone, the seal is prone to deformation, leading to inaccurate measurements. Therefore, a suitable platform for measuring the dimensions of existing downcomer cable seals is lacking. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a measuring fixture for the sealing components of downhole cables that is low in manufacturing cost, simple to process, accurate in measurement, and has a wide range of applications.

[0006] According to one aspect of the present invention, a measuring fixture for the sealing element of a downhole cable includes: a base, a support portion, and a pad.

[0007] Base support and mounting supports and pads;

[0008] The support is fixed to the top center of the base with bolts, and the front end of the support is inserted into the seal to be inspected;

[0009] A pad is installed between the bottom of the rear end of the support and the upper surface of the support. The base provides a relatively flat platform for measuring the seal, while the support provides support for the soft and easily deformable seal, making the measurement results more accurate.

[0010] In some embodiments, the base is provided with a first mounting hole and a second mounting hole, through which bolts are detachably connected to the support. The first and second mounting holes facilitate quick connection or replacement of the support, thereby enabling measurement of seals of different specifications.

[0011] In some embodiments, the support includes a support plate, a connecting block, and a support block. The connecting block is fixedly disposed at the bottom of the support plate, and bolts connect it to the support block, which separates the support plate from the base. The connecting block is located in the middle of the bottom of the support plate, and several support blocks are provided, with each support block vertically fixed to the top of the support plate. The support plate and support blocks support the seal to be tested, preventing deformation and resulting in more accurate measurement data.

[0012] In some implementations, the support block is arranged parallel to the top of the support plate.

[0013] In some implementations, the transverse cross-section of the support block and the support plate coincides with the connection hole on the side of the seal to be inspected.

[0014] In some implementations, the height of the pad is the same as the height of the connecting block. The pad prevents the silicone component from tilting due to uneven weight distribution when placed on its side.

[0015] Compared with existing technologies, this utility model has the advantages of low manufacturing cost, simple processing, accurate measurement, and wide application range. This utility model provides a relatively flat platform for measuring the seal through the base, and supports the soft and easily deformable seal through the support part, making the measurement results more accurate; the first and second mounting holes facilitate quick connection or replacement of the support part, thus allowing measurement of seals of different specifications; the support plate and support block support the seal to be tested, preventing deformation and making the measurement data more accurate; the pad block prevents the silicone element from tilting due to uneven weight distribution when placed on the side.

[0021] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it should be noted that these embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention. Equivalent transformations or substitutions in function, method, or structure made by those skilled in the art based on these embodiments are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to mechanical or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components. They can be direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the terms according to the specific circumstances.

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, the sealing measuring fixture for the downhole cable of this utility model includes: a base 1, a support 2, and a pad 3;

[0024] The base 1 supports and mounts the support part 2 and the pad 3;

[0025] The support part 2 is fixed to the top center of the base 1 by bolts 4, and the front end of the support part 2 is inserted into the seal to be inspected;

[0026] A pad 3 is installed between the bottom of the rear end of the support part 2 and the upper surface of the support part 2. The base 1 provides a relatively flat platform for measuring the seal, and the support part 2 provides support for the soft and easily deformable seal, making the measurement results more accurate.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, the base 1 has a first mounting hole 11 and a second mounting hole 12. The bolt 4 passes through the first mounting hole 11 and the second mounting hole 12 and is detachably connected to the support part 2. The first mounting hole 11 and the second mounting hole 12 facilitate quick connection or replacement of the support part 2, thereby enabling the measurement of seals of different specifications.

[0028] like Figure 4 As shown, the support part 2 includes: a support plate 21, a connecting block 22, and a support block 23. The connecting block 22 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the support plate 21. Bolts 4 connect to the support block 23, and the support block 23 separates the support plate 21 from the base 1. The connecting block 22 is located in the middle of the bottom of the support plate 21. Several support blocks 23 are provided, and the support blocks 23 are vertically fixed to the top of the support plate 21. The support plate 21 and the support blocks 23 support the seal to be tested, preventing deformation of the seal and making the measurement data more accurate.

[0029] The support block 23 is arranged parallel to the top of the support plate 21.

[0030] The transverse cross-section of the support block 23 and the support plate 21 is consistent with the connection hole on the side of the seal to be inspected.

[0031] The height of the pad 3 is the same as the height of the connecting block 22. The pad 3 prevents the silicone component from tilting due to uneven weight distribution when placed on the side.

[0032] like Figure 5 As shown, during use, the bolt 4 is first used to connect the support part 2 through the first mounting hole 11 and the second mounting hole 12 from the bottom of the base 1, and then the pad 3 is placed between the support plate 21 and the base 1.

[0033] Placing base 1 stably ensures that the fixture and silicone component are not subject to unnecessary shaking or displacement due to external interference during the entire measurement process, thus avoiding measurement errors caused by such movement. Measurement: With base 1 stable, the corresponding dimensions of the silicone sealant can be measured according to standard measurement procedures. During measurement, it is crucial to adhere to the proper usage guidelines for the measuring tools to ensure the accuracy of the measurement data.

[0034] When measuring from the side, the seal is inserted into the support block 23 and the support plate 21 from one end of the principle pad 3. With the support of the support block 23 and the support plate 21, the seal will not deform, and the measurement result is accurate.

[0035] This utility model is made entirely of 45# steel. Compared to other measuring tools made of expensive special materials, 45# steel has a lower material cost, which allows for effective cost control during the manufacturing process. At the same time, the simple price structure and relatively simple processing technology reduce various expenses during processing, making the overall price of this fixture low. For enterprises or testing institutions that need to use this measuring fixture extensively, it can save considerable expenses in measurement costs.

[0036] From a processing technology perspective, 45# steel is easy to machine. Compared to some difficult-to-machine materials, using 45# steel to make measuring fixtures does not require complex processing procedures or special processing equipment. This reduces the difficulty of processing, decreases the technical requirements in the processing process, and the fixture has a simple structure, requiring no complex processing technology, thus greatly shortening the processing cycle.

[0037] The assembly design of each component is highly user-friendly, making operation simple and quick. Whether assembling the silicone components with the support fixture, assembling the assembled whole with the base 1, or assembling the pad 3 for side measurement, no complicated assembly steps or special tools are required; simple manual operation is all that's needed. This convenient assembly method improves work efficiency and reduces the time and effort spent assembling the fixture.

[0038] During the jig's service life, the stability of 45# steel makes it resistant to wear and deformation, eliminating the need for frequent repairs or parts replacements. Furthermore, its simple structure and manufacturing process make daily cleaning and maintenance relatively easy, requiring minimal investment of manpower, resources, and capital, resulting in very low maintenance costs.

[0039] The above descriptions are merely some embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make other modifications and improvements without departing from the inventive concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
