Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ring forging testing technology, specifically a hardness tester for testing ring forgings. Background Technology

[0002] Ring forgings are a product of the forging industry and a type of forging. They are made by applying external force to metal billets (excluding plates) and shaping them into ring-shaped objects with appropriate compressive force through plastic deformation. This force is typically achieved by using a hammer or pressure. The forging process creates a fine granular structure and improves the physical properties of the metal. As an industrial product, to ensure the quality of ring forgings, it is necessary to test their hardness, yield strength, tensile strength, impact resistance, etc.

[0004] Existing testing equipment is inconvenient for assisting in the positioning of materials during operation, which makes the materials prone to displacement. This causes the testing probe to fail to ensure that the force is applied vertically to the arc surface of the ring forging, thus affecting the test results. In addition, it does not have an auxiliary cleaning function, and the adhering impurities will also affect the accuracy of the test. Utility Model Content
