Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of testing equipment technology, specifically an adjustable hardness testing device. Background Technology
[0002] In fields such as materials science, manufacturing, and quality inspection, accurate testing of material hardness is crucial. Adjustable hardness testing devices, as equipment that can flexibly adapt to different testing needs, play an important role in various hardness testing scenarios due to their adjustability and versatility.
[0003] For example, an adjustable hardness testing device for building materials, disclosed in publication number CN113607544A, specifically relates to the field of building material testing equipment. It includes a fixed frame with a placement platform at its bottom. Clamping plates are located on both sides of the inner wall of the placement platform. A mounting gear is located on the inner wall of the top of the fixed frame, with an adjusting rod at its bottom and a pressure plate at its bottom. A telescopic rod is located on the inner wall of the bottom of the fixed frame, with a square block at its top. A slot is formed at the bottom of the rotating shaft. This invention uses a servo motor to drive the rotating gear, thereby adjusting the distance between the two clamping plates. This allows the testing device to adapt to the testing of building materials of different sizes. Simultaneously, the rotation of the mounting gear adjusts the position of the pressure plate, enabling the pressure plate to perform hardness testing on different locations of the building material, resulting in more accurate test data.
[0004] However, based on the working principle proposed in the aforementioned patent, the applicant believes that the device clamps and fixes the sample to be tested by means of clamping plates on both sides. However, for irregularly shaped building materials, it is difficult to achieve stable and accurate fixation by means of clamping plates on both sides alone, and it is impossible to accurately control the centering of the sample to be tested, thereby affecting the accuracy of subsequent testing.
[0005] Therefore, an adjustable hardness testing device is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0008] Preferably, a second drive motor is fixedly installed in the middle part of the bottom of the workbench, and the output ends on both sides of the second drive motor are set as threaded shafts, which are threadedly engaged with the U-shaped connecting arm.
[0009] Preferably, the workbench has a first T-shaped groove at each of the four corners of the top, and T-shaped sliders are fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom of the assembly plate, with the T-shaped sliders matching the first T-shaped grooves.
[0010] Preferably, an L-shaped support arm is fixedly installed on one side of the workbench, and a hydraulic cylinder is fixedly installed on one side of the top of the L-shaped support arm and perpendicular to the middle part of the workbench.

[0024] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.
[0025] This application discloses an adjustable hardness testing device, including a worktable 1. U-shaped connecting arms 2 are movably mounted on both sides of the worktable 1. Assembly plates 3 are movably mounted on both sides of the top of the worktable 1. A connecting seat 4 is fixedly mounted in the middle of the top of the assembly plate 3.

A first dual-axis motor 6 is fixedly mounted in the middle of the top of the limit frame 5. A drive gear 7 is fixedly mounted at the end of the output end of the first dual-axis motor 6. Threaded rods 8 are rotatably mounted in the inner cavities on both sides of the limit frame 5. Clamping blocks 9 are threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded rods 8. A transmission gear 10 is fixedly mounted on one side of the surface of the threaded rods 8. The transmission gear 10 is meshed with the drive gear 7.
[0026] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 Through the structural design of U-shaped connecting arm 2, assembly plate 3, connecting seat 4, first dual-axis motor 6, drive gear 7, threaded rod 8, clamping block 9, and transmission gear 10, and through the mutual cooperation between the structures, the function of improving detection accuracy is realized. Thus, the sample to be tested can be clamped in the center from four sides in the horizontal direction, thereby ensuring the stability of the sample during the detection process. At the same time, multi-face clamping meets the usage requirements of different sample shapes and sizes.
[0027] A second drive motor 11 is fixedly installed in the middle part of the bottom of the workbench 1. The output ends on both sides of the second drive motor 11 are set as threaded shafts 12, and the threaded shafts 12 are threadedly engaged with the U-shaped connecting arm 2.
[0028] Reference Figure 2 The second drive motor 11 and the threaded shaft 12 work together to generate driving force to push the U-shaped connecting arm 2 to move in the opposite direction, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the working position of the two side limit frames 5.
[0029] The top of the workbench 1 has four corners with first T-shaped grooves 13, and the bottom of the assembly plate 3 has two sides with T-shaped sliders 14 fixedly installed. The T-shaped sliders 14 are adapted to the first T-shaped grooves 13.
[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first T-shaped slide 13 and the T-shaped slider 14 work together to guide and limit the movement of the assembly plate 3 on the worktable 1, prevent the assembly plate 3 from deviating during the movement, ensure that it always moves in the specified direction, and further improve the accuracy of position adjustment.
[0031] An L-shaped support arm 15 is fixedly installed on one side of the workbench 1, and a hydraulic cylinder 16 is fixedly installed on one side of the top of the L-shaped support arm 15 and perpendicular to the middle part of the workbench 1.
[0032] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The L-shaped support arm 15 facilitates the provision of installation space for the hydraulic cylinder 16, ensuring that the pressure plate 18 applies pressure to the workpiece in the correct direction.
[0033] A flange 17 is fixedly installed at the end of the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 16, and a pressure plate 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the flange 17.
[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 The flange 17 facilitates the connection between the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 16 and the pressure plate 18, and also facilitates the subsequent installation, disassembly and replacement of the pressure plate 18. The pressure plate 18 facilitates contact with the workpiece and transmits the pressure applied to the sample by the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 16.
[0035] Several second T-shaped grooves 19 are provided on the outer side of the pressure plate 18. T-shaped slide bars 20 are movably installed inside the second T-shaped grooves 19. Several threaded holes 21 are provided on the top of the T-shaped slide bars 20.
[0036] Reference Figure 4 The second T-shaped groove 19 and the T-shaped slide bar 20 work together to increase the pressure area by horizontal extension, which makes it easy to adjust according to different sample shapes and further increases the accuracy of subsequent detection.
[0037] Several connecting ears 22 are fixedly installed on the outside of the pressure plate 18. Bolts 23 are provided inside the connecting ears 22, and the bolts 23 are adapted to the threaded holes 21.

[0039] Working principle: When using this device, firstly, according to the size of the workpiece to be inspected, the second drive motor 11 is started. The second drive motor 11 drives the threaded shafts 12 on both sides to rotate. Since the threaded shafts 12 are threadedly connected to the U-shaped connecting arms 2, the rotation of the threaded shafts 12 will cause the U-shaped connecting arms 2 to move linearly on the worktable 1. The U-shaped connecting arms 2 are connected to the assembly plate 3 through the connecting seat 4, which in turn drives the assembly plate 3 to move along the guide structure composed of the first T-shaped slide groove 13 and the T-shaped slider 14. After the limiting frame 5 is attached to the surface of the workpiece, the two output ends of the first dual-axis motor 6 simultaneously drive the drive gear 7 to rotate. The drive gear 7 meshes with the transmission gear 10, thereby driving the threaded rod 8 to rotate. Since the threaded rod 8 is threadedly connected to the clamping block 9, the rotation of the threaded rod 8 is converted into the linear motion of the clamping block 9. The clamping blocks 9 on both sides move towards the workpiece at the same time until the workpiece is clamped and fixed. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 16 extends downward, driving the pressure plate 18 to move towards the workpiece. After the pressure plate 18 contacts the surface of the workpiece, the hydraulic cylinder 16 continues to apply the specified pressure.
