Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of rotary joint testing, and in particular to a rotary joint torque testing device. Background Technology
[0002] In fields such as industrial robots, medical devices, automotive transmission systems, and aerospace components, rotary joints are core components that enable multi-angle movement of mechanical structures. To better test the torsional load-bearing capacity and fatigue resistance of rotary joints, torsional testing is required. Traditional testing fixtures often use clamping to hold the rotary joint and then drive the moving part of the joint through a drive component. However, this clamping method is prone to deformation damage to the rotary joint, leading to torsional deviation. Furthermore, the clamping method can slip, further increasing the risk of testing instability. Therefore, a rotary joint torsional testing device is needed to improve the fixation stability of the rotary joint and reduce damage during testing, thus solving the above problems.

[0017] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification.
[0018] Please see Figures 1 to 4 It should be understood that the structures, proportions, sizes, etc., illustrated in the accompanying drawings are merely for illustrative purposes to aid those skilled in the art and are not intended to limit the scope of this invention. Therefore, they have no substantial technical significance. Any modifications to the structure, changes in proportions, or adjustments to size, without affecting the effectiveness and purpose of this invention, should still fall within the scope of the technical content disclosed in this invention. Furthermore, the terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "middle," and "one" used in this specification are merely for clarity and are not intended to limit the scope of this invention. Changes or adjustments to their relative relationships, without substantially altering the technical content, should also be considered within the scope of this invention.
[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 4This utility model provides a rotary joint torque testing device, including a joint to be tested 1 comprising a positioning part 2 and a movable part 3. A test chamber 5 is provided on the upper side of the testing machine 4, and a limiting groove 6 is provided on the upper side of the test chamber 5 to support the positioning part 2 of the joint to be tested 1. A limiting pin seat 7 is arranged circumferentially within the limiting groove 6. A limiting base 8 is provided below the positioning part 2 of the joint to be tested 1. When a torque test is required on the rotary joint, the positioning part 2 of the rotary joint is placed on the limiting groove 6, so that the limiting base 8... The joint 1 is placed in the limiting groove 6, and then the limiting pin provided on the lower side of the limiting base 8 extends into the limiting pin seat 7, so that the positioning part 2 of the joint 1 under test can be stably placed in the limiting groove 6, thereby restricting the rotation of the positioning part 2 of the joint 1 under test in the circumferential direction. The test machine 4 is provided with a joint drive 9, and the output end of the joint drive 9 is provided with a drive shaft 10 connected to the movable part 3 of the joint 1 under test, so as to drive the movable part 3 of the joint 1 under test to rotate relative to the positioning part 2 of the joint 1 under test, thereby completing the torsion test.
[0020] The test chamber 5 is equipped with a joint drive frame 11. A joint drive seat 12 is provided between the upper side of the joint drive frame 11 and the movable part 3 of the joint to be tested 1. The joint drive frame 11 supports the joint drive seat 12. A rotatable auxiliary shaft 13 is provided inside the joint drive seat 12 to improve the driving stability of the auxiliary shaft 13, thereby ensuring the driving reliability of the movable part 3 of the test joint. A coupling 14 is provided between the lower side of the auxiliary shaft 13 and the drive shaft 10 to ensure the connection reliability between the auxiliary shaft 13 and the drive shaft 10.
[0021] An encoder 15 is installed in the test chamber 5 on the lower side of the joint drive frame 11. An encoder 16 is installed in the encoder 15. The drive shaft 10 passes through the encoder 16 and is connected to the auxiliary shaft 13. The encoder 16 is used to record the rotation information of the drive shaft 10, and then, in conjunction with the drive information of the joint drive component 9, torque test data is obtained.
[0022] The encoder base 15 is a U-shaped encoder base 15, and the open end of the encoder base 15 is set upward. The encoder 16 is located inside the open end of the encoder base 15. The U-shaped encoder base 15 can improve the support stability of the encoder 16 and the convenience of assembling the encoder 16.
[0023] The joint drive frame 11 is a U-shaped drive frame, and the open end of the joint drive frame 11 is arranged downward. The joint drive seat 12 is arranged on the upper side of the joint drive frame 11, which can ensure the reliability of the support for the joint drive seat 12.
[0024] Limiting clamps 17 are provided on the upper part of the test chamber 5 along both sides of the joint to be tested 1. The movable end of the limiting clamp 17 presses against the upper side of the positioning part 2 of the joint to be tested 1 to limit the displacement of the positioning part 2 of the joint to be tested 1 in the vertical direction. When the torsional force is too large, the positioning part 2 of the joint to be tested 1 will move upward. The limiting clamp 17 can effectively prevent the positioning part 2 of the joint to be tested 1 from moving in the axial direction, thereby ensuring the stability of the test process.
[0025] The upper side of the test machine 4 is provided with a limiting base 18, the limiting groove 6 is located in the limiting base 18, and the limiting base 18 is detachably connected to the test machine 4. When it is necessary to test different models of rotary joints, the limiting base 18 can be removed and replaced with other models of limiting base 18 to meet the testing requirements.
[0026] When performing a torque test on a rotary joint, this invention places the positioning part of the rotary joint on the limiting groove, allowing the limiting base to fall within the limiting groove. Then, a limiting pin located on the lower side of the limiting base extends into the limiting pin seat, ensuring that the positioning part of the joint under test can be stably positioned within the limiting groove, thus restricting the circumferential rotation of the positioning part. The movable end of the limiting clamp presses against the upper side of the positioning part of the joint under test, restricting its vertical displacement. When the torsional force is too large, the positioning part of the joint under test may move upwards, but the limiting clamp effectively prevents axial displacement of the positioning part, thereby ensuring the stability of the testing process.
[0027] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
