Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building construction technology, specifically to a structural adhesive compressive strength mold. Background Technology
[0002] Structural adhesives are high-strength, durable bonding agents widely used in construction and other fields. Before using structural adhesives, it is necessary to test whether their various properties meet the specifications, such as tensile strength, compressive strength, and shear strength.
[0003] According to relevant specifications, in compressive strength tests, the standard dimensions of Type I specimens are 10mm × 10mm × 25mm, while Type II specimens are cylinders with a diameter of Φ10mm and a height of 25mm. In practical engineering applications and testing practices, Type II specimens are more widely used.
[0004] Traditional structural adhesive molds are typically made of steel or silicone rubber and consist of two interlocking templates that combine to form multiple cylindrical casting grooves. After the structural adhesive is filled into these grooves, the molds are demolded and processed into standard parts that meet specifications once the required curing time has elapsed. The casting grooves in traditional molds are typically Φ10*25mm, which matches the dimensions of the specimen. However, structural adhesives undergo volume shrinkage during curing. If the shrinkage rate is significant, and the initial filling amount is just right or venting is insufficient, the surface of the structural adhesive may become concave, or even develop micro-defects or voids within. This can result in insufficient specimen height or localized defects, affecting test results. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a structural adhesive compressive strength mold.
[0006] A structural adhesive compressive strength mold includes two overlapping templates. Each template has a first sidewall and a second sidewall opposite to the first sidewall. Several cylindrical casting grooves are provided between the two templates. One end of each casting groove is closed, and the other end is open to form an opening. A funnel-shaped opening is provided at the opening, extending horizontally to the first sidewall. The diameter of the opening gradually decreases from the first sidewall towards the opening. The two templates are tightly connected by fastening components.
[0007] A further technical solution is to use a casting trough with a diameter of 10mm and a length of 120-220mm.
[0008] A further technical solution is: the two templates are the same size, and the casting trough includes a trough with a semi-circular cross section set on the mating surface of the two templates respectively.
[0009] A further technical solution is: the fastening assembly includes a first fastener disposed on both sides of the casting trough and a second fastener disposed in the extension direction of the closed end of the casting trough, wherein the first fastener and the second fastener are respectively connected through the two templates to one end near the first sidewall and one end near the second sidewall.
[0010] A further technical solution is: both the first fastener and the second fastener include screw holes provided on the corresponding two templates, bolts passing through the screw holes on the two templates, and nuts threaded to the ends of the bolts.
[0011] A further technical solution is that the nut is a wing nut.
[0012] A further technical solution is as follows: the template is made of steel plate with a length of 300mm, a width of 125mm, and a height of 25mm. Two symmetrically arranged pouring grooves are set between the two templates. The pouring grooves are 220mm long, the distance between the two pouring grooves is set to 40mm, and the maximum diameter of the opening is 35mm, the minimum diameter is 10mm, and the height is 5mm.
[0013] A further technical solution is: the distance between the closed end of the casting groove and the second sidewall is set to 70mm, the distance between the screw hole of the second fastener and the second sidewall is set to 40mm, and the distance between the screw hole of the first fastener and the first sidewall is set to 25mm.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] The structural adhesive compressive strength mold of this application allows for the pouring of reagents from an open opening into a casting tank. The reagent level is higher than the opening of the casting tank but lower than the top surface of the opening. This not only facilitates the pouring of the adhesive but also ensures that the adhesive completely fills the casting tank. Two structural adhesive particles with a diameter of 10 mm and a length of approximately 220 mm can be obtained at once. According to the required test dimensions, the parts of the adhesive without air bubbles or defects can be selected for cutting and processing into multiple Φ10*25 mm standard specimens. This allows for a large number of high-quality specimens to be obtained in one pour, thereby solving the problem of insufficient dimensional accuracy of specimens obtained by traditional molds and improving the accuracy of structural component specimen testing results.
[0016] This application provides a first fastener and a second fastener on both sides of the casting trough and in the direction of the casting trough extension. The first and second fasteners work together to make the connection between the two templates more compact, tighten the two templates from multiple directions, reduce the probability of air holes in the specimen, and assist in the positioning of the two templates to ensure accurate splicing of the casting trough.

Each template 1 has a first sidewall 10 and a second sidewall 11 opposite to the first sidewall. Several cylindrical casting grooves 2 are provided between the two templates 1. One end of the casting groove 2 is closed, and the other end is open to form an opening 3. A funnel-shaped opening 4 is provided at the opening 3, which extends horizontally to the first sidewall 10. The diameter of the opening 4 gradually decreases from the first sidewall 10 toward the opening 3. The two templates 1 are tightly connected by fastening components.
[0028] The diameter of the casting trough 2 is 10mm and the length is 120-220mm. The number of casting troughs 2 can be set to 1-3, and preferably there are 2 casting troughs 2.
[0029] The two templates 1 are the same size. The casting trough 2 includes a trough with a semi-circular cross section, which is respectively set on the mating surface of the two templates 1. The diameter of the semi-circle is 10mm.
[0030] The fastening assembly includes first fasteners 5 disposed on both sides of the casting groove 2, and second fasteners 6 disposed in the extension direction of the closed end of the casting groove 2. The first fasteners 5 and the second fasteners 6 are respectively connected through the two templates 1 to one end near the first sidewall 10 and one end near the second sidewall 11. When there are two or more casting grooves 2, only the same first fastener 5 needs to be used between two adjacent casting grooves 2.
[0031] Both the first fastener 5 and the second fastener 6 include screw holes 9 corresponding to those on the two templates 1, bolts 7 passing through the screw holes 9 on the two templates 1, and nuts 8 threaded to the ends of the bolts 7.

For ease of installation and disassembly, wing nuts 8 are preferred.
[0032] In one specific embodiment, the template 1 is made of steel plate with a length of 300mm, a width of 125mm, and a height of 25mm.

Structural adhesive is poured into the casting groove 2 through the opening 4 of the template 1, with the poured reagent level submerging the opening 3 but not exceeding the opening 4. After reaching the required curing period, the nuts 8 and bolts 7 are removed, the template 1 is opened, and demolding is performed to obtain two structural adhesive bodies with a diameter of 10mm and a length of 220mm. The obtained adhesive bodies are then cut at full, defect-free locations to obtain multiple standard specimens with a size of Φ10*25mm.
