Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of measuring tool technology, and in particular relates to a precision measuring instrument for internal and external diameters. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the typical small-size measuring range of outside micrometers is 25mm, such as (200mm - 225mm locking lever, 225mm - 250mm locking lever). The measuring range of large-size outside micrometers is 100mm (e.g., 300mm-400mm, 500mm-600mm). When multiple measuring ranges need to be measured, multiple devices are required, resulting in high measurement costs.

[0003] The common method for using an inside micrometer is as follows: First, align the outside micrometer. Then, retract the locking device of the outside micrometer and calibrate the inside micrometer. Because the outside micrometer's state differs between locked and unlocked states, practical experience shows that the actual size of the inside micrometer calibrated using this common method often deviates from the size measured by the measuring machine. The specific deviation is unstable and is primarily determined by the measuring force of the outside micrometer.

[0004] Because of its cylindrical structure, the inside micrometer often cannot be used to measure small steps if the step being measured is smaller than the radius of the inside micrometer. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model embodiment is to provide a precision measuring instrument for inner and outer diameters, which aims to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] This utility model embodiment is implemented as follows: a precision measuring instrument for inner and outer diameters includes two fixed tubes arranged side by side, with each end of the two fixed tubes connected by a fixing block; it also includes:

[0025] like Figures 1-6 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a precision measuring instrument for inner and outer diameters, comprising two fixed tubes 1 arranged side by side, the two ends of the two fixed tubes 1 being connected by a fixing block 11; and further comprising:

[0026] Adjustment module 2, wherein two sets of adjustment module 2 are provided, and the two sets of adjustment module 2 are respectively slidably installed at both ends of the fixed tube 1 along the axial direction of the fixed tube 1, for adjusting the height of the fixed tube 1. The adjustment module 2 includes a first sliding seat 21 slidably installed on the fixed tube 1 along the axial direction of the fixed tube 1. The first sliding seat 21 is composed of two symmetrical locking blocks, and the two locking blocks are connected to each other by a locking rod 22. A support screw 23 is provided at the bottom of the first sliding seat 21, and an adjusting nut 24 for adjusting the support screw 23 is also provided at the bottom of the first sliding seat 21.

[0027] The spring fixing assembly 3 is disposed on one side of a set of adjustment modules 2, including a second sliding seat 31 slidably mounted on the fixed tube 1, and a first locking member 32 for fixing the second sliding seat 31 to the fixed tube 1 is provided on the side wall of the second sliding seat 31, and a spring fixing rod 33 is provided on the top of the second sliding seat 31.

[0028] The measuring block assembly 4 is located on the side of the spring fixing assembly 3 away from the adjustment module 2 (the distance between the adjustment module 2 and the spring fixing assembly 3 is small). It includes a third sliding seat 41 that is slidably mounted on the fixing tube 1. The side wall of the third sliding seat 41 is provided with a second locking member 42 for fixing the third sliding seat 41 to the fixing tube 1.

The bottom of the third sliding seat 41 is also provided with a first spring connector 44.

[0029] The display module 5 is located on the side of the measuring block assembly 4 away from the spring fixing assembly 3. It includes a fourth sliding seat 51 that is slidably mounted on the fixing tube 1. The side wall of the fourth sliding seat 51 is provided with a third locking member 52 for fixing the fourth sliding seat 51 to the fixing tube 1. The top of the fourth sliding seat 51 is provided with a measuring gauge 53 and a second spring connector 54.

[0030] The probe adjustment assembly 6 is located on one side of another set of adjustment modules 2. It includes a fifth sliding seat 61 that is slidably mounted on the fixed tube 1.
