They are characterized by light weight, high strength, electrical conductivity, low cost, and good performance for large-scale mass production, and have a wide range of applications.

[0003] To ensure the quality of sheet metal parts, their dimensions need to be measured after forming. Existing measuring devices often require repeated assembly and disassembly of the sheet metal parts to adjust their orientation and position in order to measure their length and thickness, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and reduces measurement efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a multifunctional sheet metal part size measuring device that can conveniently measure the overall length and thickness of various parts of a sheet metal part.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A multifunctional sheet metal part dimension measuring device includes a base, which is cylindrical. A gate-shaped frame is rotatably connected to the top of the base. The rotation axis of the gate-shaped frame is coaxial with the central axis of the base. A sliding frame is slidably connected to the horizontal part of the gate-shaped frame. The sliding frame has a fixed groove along the vertical direction. A vertical plate is slidably connected to the fixed groove. A height scale is provided on the vertical plate. A straight slide rail is provided at the top of the base. A pair of pressure plates are slidably connected to the slide rail. An adjustment assembly connected to the pressure plates is provided on the base. A length scale parallel to the slide rail is provided at the top of the base. The opposing surfaces of the two pressure plates are perpendicular to the length scale.

[0007] Preferably, the adjusting assembly includes a throttle, a bidirectional screw, and a threaded sleeve. The bidirectional screw is rotatably connected to the slide along its length. A pair of symmetrical threaded sleeves are threaded onto the bidirectional screw. The threaded sleeves are slidably connected to the slide. The top of the threaded sleeve is connected to the bottom of the pressure plate. One end of the bidirectional screw extends out of the base and is connected to the throttle.

[0008] Preferably, the midpoint of the slide rail coincides with the center of the circle at the top of the base.

[0009] Preferably, the slide rail has parallel grooves on both sides, and a slider is slidably connected in the groove, the slider being connected to the bottom of the pressure plate.

[0010] Preferably, the length scale is located at the outer end of the pressure plate.

[0011] Preferably, the top of the base is provided with an annular groove concentric with it, and the bottom of the gate frame is provided with a sliding piece that is slidably connected to the annular groove.

[0012] Preferably, the gate frame is provided with a locking component A to restrict its rotation capability, the sliding frame is provided with a locking component B to restrict its sliding capability, and the fixing groove is provided with a locking component C to restrict the sliding capability of the vertical plate.

[0013] Preferably, locking components A, B, and C each include a lever, a spring, and a toothed block. The gate frame, sliding frame, and fixing groove each have a through hole that is slidably connected to the lever. A spring connects the outer end of the through hole to the outer end of the lever. The inner end of the lever has a toothed block. The through hole of the gate frame leads to the side of the base. The side of the base has an annular toothed groove that mates with the toothed block. The through hole of the sliding frame leads to the gate frame. The gate frame has a straight toothed groove A that mates with the toothed block.

[0014] The beneficial technical effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] By using the adjustable distance component and pressure plate together, the sheet metal part to be measured can be firmly fixed. By using the height scale and length scale together, the thickness and length of the sheet metal part can be measured at the same time, improving measurement efficiency. By using the gate frame and sliding frame together, it is convenient to measure the thickness of different parts of the sheet metal part.

[0016] The distance between the two pressure plates is adjusted by using the adjustable spacing component, so that the closed pressure plates clamp the sheet metal part placed on the base and fix it firmly. The distance between the two pressure plates is judged by the length scale, so as to obtain the length of the sheet metal part. By rotating the gate frame and moving the sliding frame on the gate frame, the landing point of the vertical plate is moved to the part of the sheet metal part where the thickness needs to be measured, so that the bottom of the vertical plate is against the top of the sheet metal part.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0025] Example:

[0026] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a multifunctional sheet metal part size measuring device, including a base 1, which is cylindrical. A gate-shaped frame 2 is rotatably connected to the top of the base 1. The rotation axis of the gate-shaped frame 2 is coaxial with the central axis of the base 1. A sliding frame 3 is slidably connected to the horizontal part of the gate-shaped frame 2. A fixed groove 4 along the vertical direction is provided on the sliding frame 3. A vertical plate 5 is slidably connected to the fixed groove 4. A height scale 6 is provided on the vertical plate 5. A straight slide 7 is provided at the top of the base 1. A pair of pressure plates 8 are slidably connected to the slide 7. An adjustment component 9 connected to the pressure plates 8 is provided on the base 1. A length scale 10 parallel to the slide 7 is provided at the top of the base 1. The opposite surfaces of the two pressure plates 8 are perpendicular to the length scale 10.

[0027] The combination of the adjustable distance component 9 and the pressure plate 8 securely fixes the sheet metal part to be measured. The combination of the height scale 6 and the length scale 10 allows for simultaneous measurement of the thickness and length of the sheet metal part, improving measurement efficiency. The combination of the gate frame 2 and the sliding frame 3 facilitates the measurement of the thickness of different parts of the sheet metal part. The adjustable distance component 9 adjusts the distance between the two pressure plates 8, allowing the closed pressure plates 8 to clamp the sheet metal part placed on the base 1, securing it firmly. The length scale 10 is used to determine the distance between the two pressure plates 8, thus determining the length of the sheet metal part. By rotating the gate frame 2 and moving the sliding frame 3 on the gate frame 2, the landing point of the vertical plate 5 is moved to the part of the sheet metal part where the thickness needs to be measured, so that the bottom of the vertical plate 5 touches the top of the sheet metal part. The height scale 6 is used to determine the distance between the bottom of the vertical plate 5 and the top of the base 1, thus determining the thickness of the sheet metal part.

[0028] Specifically, the zero point of the height scale 6 is usually set at the top of the vertical plate 5. When the bottom of the vertical plate 5 rests on the top of the base 1, the zero point of the height scale 6 is aligned with the fixing groove 4. In this way, when the bottom of the vertical plate 5 touches the top of the sheet metal part, the thickness of the sheet metal part at this point can be obtained by reading the degree of the height scale 6 aligned with the fixing groove 4, which is convenient for the staff to measure.

[0029] Furthermore, the adjustable torque assembly 9 includes a throttle 11, a bidirectional screw 12, and a threaded sleeve 13. The bidirectional screw 12 is rotatably connected in the slide rail 7 along the length direction. A pair of symmetrical threaded sleeves 13 are threadedly connected to the bidirectional screw 12. The threaded sleeves 13 are slidably connected to the slide rail 7. The top of the threaded sleeve 13 is connected to the bottom of the pressure plate 8. One end of the bidirectional screw 12 passes through the base 1 and is connected to the throttle 11.

[0030] The rotation of the threaded sleeve 13 is restricted by the slide rail 7. When the operator turns the handle 11 to drive the bidirectional screw 12, the rotating bidirectional screw 12 drives the two threaded sleeves 13 to move in opposite directions, thereby adjusting the distance between the pressure plates 8 connected to the threaded sleeves 13, so as to achieve the effect of clamping the sheet metal parts with the two pressure plates 8.

[0031] Furthermore, the midpoint of the slide 7 coincides with the center of the top of the base 1.

[0032] The sheet metal part clamped by the two pressure plates 8 is generally located in the center of the top of the base 1, which facilitates the subsequent measurement of the thickness of various parts of the sheet metal part.

[0033] Furthermore, the slide 7 has parallel grooves 14 on both sides, and a slider 15 is slidably connected in the groove 14. The slider 15 is connected to the bottom of the pressure plate 8.

[0034] The stability of the translational movement of the pressure plate 8 is improved by using the combination of the slide groove 14 and the slider 15.

[0035] Furthermore, the length scale 10 is located at the outer end of the pressure plate 8.

[0036] This allows workers to accurately position the scale of the length ruler 10 aligned with the pressure plate 8, improving the accuracy of length measurement of sheet metal parts. The length ruler 10 is located at the outer end of the pressure plate 8 to prevent sheet metal parts from obstructing the length ruler 10 and hindering workers from reading the scale.

[0037] Specifically, the top of the base 1 is equipped with two length scales 10 that are respectively aligned with the two outer ends of the upper pressure plate 8. When the sheet metal part is large enough to block one of the length scales 10, the staff can still see the other unobstructed length scale 10 without affecting the length measurement of the sheet metal part.

[0038] Furthermore, the top of the base 1 is provided with an annular groove 16 concentric with it, and the bottom of the door frame 2 is provided with a sliding piece 17 that is slidably connected to the annular groove 16.

[0039] The combination of the annular groove 16 and the slider 17 enables a rotatable connection between the gate frame 2 and the top of the base 1.

[0040] Furthermore, the door frame 2 is provided with a locking component A18 to restrict its rotation ability, the sliding frame 3 is provided with a locking component B19 to restrict its sliding ability, and the fixing groove 4 is provided with a locking component C20 to restrict the sliding ability of the vertical plate 5.

[0041] Locking components A18, B19, and C20 are used to fix the door frame 2, sliding frame 3, and vertical plate 5 respectively, to prevent the latter three from becoming loose and affecting the measurement accuracy of the sheet metal parts.

[0042] Furthermore, locking components A18, B19, and C20 each include a lever 21, a spring 22, and a toothed block 23. The portal frame 2, the sliding frame 3, and the fixing groove 4 each have a through hole 24 that is slidably connected to the lever 21. A spring 22 is connected between the outer end of the through hole 24 and the outer end of the lever 21. The inner end of the lever 21 has a toothed block 23. The through hole 24 of the portal frame 2 leads to the side of the base 1. The side of the base 1 has an annular toothed groove 25 that mates with the toothed block 23. The through hole 24 of the sliding frame 3 leads to the portal frame 2. The portal frame 2 has a straight toothed groove A26 that mates with the toothed block 23. The through hole 24 of the fixing groove 4 leads to the vertical plate 5. The vertical plate 5 has a straight toothed groove B27 that mates with the toothed block 23.

[0043] The spring 22 provides a pulling force to pull the lever 21 into the through hole 24, thereby keeping the toothed block 23 on the lever 21 pressed against the annular toothed groove 25, the straight toothed groove A26 and the straight toothed groove B27 that it matches. Through the combined use of the toothed block 23, the annular toothed groove 25, the straight toothed groove A26 and the straight toothed groove B27, the door frame 2, the sliding frame 3 and the vertical plate 5 are fixed. When it is necessary to move or rotate the portal frame 2, sliding frame 3, and vertical plate 5, the operator pulls the lever 21 outward and holds it in place. The toothed block 23 disengages from the annular toothed groove 25, linear toothed groove A26, and linear toothed groove B27 that it is paired with. At this time, the operator can smoothly rotate the portal frame 2, move the sliding frame 3, and vertical plate 5. When it is necessary to fix the portal frame 2, sliding frame 3, and vertical plate 5, the operator releases the lever 21, the spring 22 returns to its original state, and the lever 21 is inserted back into the through hole 24 under the action of the spring 22. The toothed block 23 presses back onto the annular toothed groove 25, linear toothed groove A26, and linear toothed groove B27 that it is paired with. The operation is convenient.

[0044] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:

[0045] The operator places the sheet metal part to be measured on the top of the base 1, manipulates the distance adjustment component 9 to make the two pressure plates 8 clamp the sheet metal part, reads the length scale 10 to obtain the length data of the sheet metal part, then rotates the gate frame 2 and moves the sliding frame 3 to make the landing point of the vertical plate 5 align with the part of the sheet metal part whose thickness needs to be measured, then makes the bottom end of the vertical plate 5 touch the top of the sheet metal part, reads the height scale 6 to obtain the thickness data of the sheet metal part, and repeats the above operation to obtain the thickness data of various parts of the sheet metal part.

[0046] The above are merely specific application examples of this utility model and do not constitute any limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model. All technical solutions formed by equivalent transformations or equivalent substitutions fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
