Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical testing equipment technology, specifically a Hopkinson-based triaxial impact test loading control device. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of dynamic mechanical property research of materials, the Hopkinson bar (SHPB) technique is a classic method for determining the mechanical behavior of materials under high strain rates. However, traditional devices often apply multi-directional loads through manual adjustment or step-by-step loading, making it difficult to ensure the synchronicity and dynamic coordination of axial and radial loads, resulting in significant deviations between experimental results and actual working conditions. The clamping and load adjustment of the specimen after installation rely on manual operation, which poses high operational risks (such as high-pressure gas leakage, accidental injury from impact loads), poor test repeatability (requiring frequent machine opening when adjusting the specimen), and potential safety hazards due to manual intervention.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-3 The present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0023] A Hopkinson-based triaxial impact test loading control device includes a housing 1, which is equipped with a gas container 2, a test chamber 6, and a tail chamber 7.
[0024] Gas container 2 is located on the left side of test chamber 6. Gas container 2 contains a pressurized gas cylinder and a jet pump. Gas container 2 is installed on the right side of the gas container 2. A launch tube 3 is installed inside the launch tube 3. A punch 4 is installed inside the launch tube 3.

[0026] The transmitting tube 3 is inserted into the inner cavity of the test chamber 6 to the right; the inner cavity of the test chamber 6 is equipped with a track and a test assembly, which includes an abutment sensing rod 9, a clamping seat 10, an input rod 12, a three-jaw chuck 14, a chuck 17, and a sample piece 19; the test assembly is located above the track;
[0027] The middle clamp of the three-jaw chuck 14 holds the input rod 12, and the left end of the input rod 12 corresponds to the transmitter tube 3; the middle of the clamping seat 10 is equipped with a sample piece 19, and the left end of the sample piece 19 abuts against the right end of the input rod 12; the abutment sensing rod 9 abuts against the right end of the sample piece 19; a stress sensor is installed on the abutment sensing rod 9.
[0028] The three-jaw chuck 14 has a chuck seat 13 installed on its left side, and the chuck seat 13 is fixedly set at the left end of the track.
[0029] A movable seat 8 is provided on the right side of the abutting sensing rod 9. The movable seat 8 is slidably installed on the right side of the track, and a drive vehicle is installed inside the movable seat 8. The drive vehicle provides displacement power for the movable seat 8. Telescopic rods 18 are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the movable seat 8. The telescopic rods 18 are connected to the clamping seat 10 to the left. When the telescopic rods 18 extend or retract, they drive the clamping seat 10 to move, changing the relative position of the clamping seat 10.
[0030] The clamping seat 10 is disposed between the chuck seat 13 and the movable seat 8, and the bottom of the clamping seat 10 is slidably sleeved on the track; and clamping seat locking clips 11 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the clamping seat 10, and the clamping seat locking clips 11 clamp and fix the sample piece 19 inward.
[0031] A side slide bar is provided on the front side of the track, and a sliding seat 15 is slidably installed on the side slide bar. A hydraulic rod is provided on the sliding seat 15, and the sliding seat 15 is driven to move through the hydraulic rod.
[0032] An outwardly extending extension rod 16 is provided on the side of the sliding seat 15 near the sample piece 19. A chuck 17 is installed at the end of the extension rod 16. A sensing plate is installed on the chuck 17. The chuck 17 is a hydraulic chuck. When it retracts, it clamps the sensing plate on the sample piece 19 and changes the clamping position by the displacement of the sliding seat 15.
[0033] After installing the sample piece 19, all subsequent adjustments are performed mechanically, eliminating the risks associated with manual operation.
[0034] Working principle:
[0035] The pressurized gas cylinder and jet pump in the gas container 2 release high-pressure gas into the launch tube 3, which pushes the punch 4 to move at high speed to the right along the launch tube 3.
[0036] The speed measuring instrument 5 on the back of the transparent emission tube 3 monitors the speed of the punch 4 in real time and adjusts the gas pressure through feedback to ensure that the punch 4 hits the left end of the input rod 12 at a preset speed, generating a one-dimensional stress wave.
[0037] After the punch impacts the input rod 12, the stress wave is transmitted through the input rod 12 to the left end of the specimen 19, applying an axial impact load to the specimen 19.
[0038] The right end of the specimen 19 abuts against the sensing rod 9. The sensing rod 9 monitors the stress response on the right side of the specimen 19 through the stress sensor. At the same time, the moving seat 8 pushes the clamping seat 10 through the telescopic rod 18 to adjust the axial preload or constraint displacement of the specimen 19.
[0039] The locking clamps 11 on both sides of the clamping seat 10 clamp the sample 19 inward and provide radial clamping force; the sliding seat 15 moves along the side slide bar through the hydraulic rod, which drives the hydraulic chuck 17 at the end of the extension rod 16 to clamp the surface of the sample 19, and monitors the stress change of the sample 19 through the induction plate.
[0040] The drive vehicle inside the movable seat 8 drives it to slide along the track and can move the clamping seat 10 through the telescopic rod 18 to adjust the relative position between the sample piece 19 and the input rod 12 and the abutting sensing rod 9, so as to facilitate clamping sample pieces 19 of different lengths and realize axial preloading or impact gap control; after the hydraulic chuck 17 retracts to clamp the sensing plate, the hydraulic rod of the sliding seat 15 drives its displacement to apply a dynamic load to the sample piece 19 radially, and realize triaxial loading in conjunction with axial impact;
[0041] After the sample piece 19 is installed, all loading and adjustment processes are remotely operated by mechanical structures such as the drive vehicle and hydraulic rods, avoiding the risks of human operation, ensuring the safety and repeatability of the test, and achieving adjustment flexibility.
