Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of metal flexible shaft testing technology, and more specifically, to a metal flexible shaft torque measuring device. Background Technology

[0002] A flexible metal shaft is a bendable transmission component, particularly suitable for confined spaces, and is commonly used in marine water pumps, medical devices, machine tool transmissions, and automotive odometers. After machining, the torque of the flexible metal shaft needs to be measured using torque measuring equipment. Existing torque measuring equipment for flexible metal shafts mainly uses a first three-jaw chuck and a second three-jaw chuck to clamp both ends of the flexible metal shaft. A motor then drives the first three-jaw chuck to rotate, while the second three-jaw chuck rotates under the influence of the flexible metal shaft. A connecting rope is wound around the second three-jaw chuck, and the other end of the connecting rope is connected to a tension gauge, which is located above the second three-jaw chuck. The winding of the connecting rope applies tension to the tension gauge, thereby obtaining the torque of the flexible metal shaft.

[0003] However, in the above technology, the two three-jaw chucks are set on the same axis, which can only measure the torque when the two ends of the metal flexible shaft are concentric. In actual scenarios, the metal flexible shaft will be tilted or bent. The existing metal flexible shaft torque measurement equipment has a relatively simple measurement scenario and cannot meet the measurement of the torque value of the metal flexible shaft in different scenarios. Therefore, it is impossible to obtain a more accurate torque value of the metal flexible shaft in actual scenarios. Utility Model Content

[0021] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the following description is provided in conjunction with the appendix. Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0022] This utility model embodiment provides a metal flexible shaft torque measuring device, referencing... Figure 1 The metal flexible shaft torque measuring device includes a base 1, a clamping and rotating drive assembly 2 mounted on the base 1, a clamping member 3, and a bending adjustment assembly 4. The clamping and rotating drive assembly 2 clamps one end of the metal flexible shaft and drives it to rotate. The clamping member 3 clamps the other end of the metal flexible shaft and rotates synchronously with it. The clamping and rotating drive assembly 2 is slidably connected to the base 1 in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the metal flexible shaft and can be fixed at any position. The bending adjustment assembly 4 contacts the metal flexible shaft to drive it to achieve multi-directional bending adjustment, making the state of the metal flexible shaft more closely resemble the actual scenario, thereby obtaining a more accurate measurement of the torque of the metal flexible shaft in the actual scenario.

[0023] Reference Figure 1 The clamping rotation drive assembly 2 includes a drive motor 21, a motor base 22, and a first three-jaw chuck 23. Both the drive motor 21 and the first three-jaw chuck 23 are connected to the motor base 22. The first three-jaw chuck 23 is adapted to clamp a flexible metal shaft, and the drive motor 21 is adapted to drive the first three-jaw chuck 23 to rotate the flexible metal shaft. The drive motor 21, motor base 22, and first three-jaw chuck 23 move synchronously relative to the base 1. Assuming the axis of the first three-jaw chuck 23 is the left-right direction, then the clamping members 3 and the clamping rotation drive assembly 2 are arranged at intervals along the left-right direction. In another embodiment, the clamping cylinder can be replaced by the first three-jaw chuck 23.

[0024] The motor mount 22 has at least two bolt fixing holes spaced apart. The top of the base 1 has at least two oblong adjustment holes 11 communicating with the corresponding bolt fixing holes. The extension direction of the oblong adjustment holes 11 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the first three-jaw chuck 23; that is, the oblong adjustment holes 11 extend in the front-to-back direction and penetrate the base 1. The motor mount 22 is adapted to move and adjust along the extension direction of the oblong adjustment holes 11. After the bolts are inserted into the bolt fixing holes, they pass through the oblong adjustment holes 11 and are located at the bottom of the base 1, where they are threadedly connected to the corresponding nuts, thus fixing the motor mount 22 to the base 1. If it is necessary to move the motor mount 22, the bolts and nuts fixing the motor mount 22 can be loosened, thereby tilting the first three-jaw chuck 23 and the clamping member 3, and measuring the torque under the tilted condition of the metal flexible shaft.

[0025] Reference Figures 1 to 2In this embodiment, the preferred clamping component 3 is a second three-jaw chuck. In another embodiment, the clamping component 3 can be a rotary clamping cylinder. A support frame 12 is slidably mounted on the top of the base 1. The clamping component 3 is rotatably mounted on the support frame 12. A winding reel 31 is bolted to the side of the clamping component 3 away from the first three-jaw chuck 23. The winding reel 31 is concentrically arranged with the second three-jaw chuck and rotates synchronously. A steel wire rope is wound on the winding reel 31. A tension gauge 13 is provided on the support frame 12. The tension gauge 13 is located above the clamping component 3. One end of the tension gauge 13 is hung on the support frame 12 by a hook; the other end is connected to one end of the steel wire rope. When measuring the torque of the metal flexible shaft, first rotate the clamping member 3 to make the wire rope taut and record the value on the tension gauge 13 at this time. Then, manually fix the rotation of the clamping member 3, and then clamp one end of the metal flexible shaft with the clamping member 3 and the other end with the first three-jaw chuck 23. After the drive motor 21 drives the metal flexible shaft to rotate slowly, the metal flexible shaft will drive the clamping member 3 and the winding reel 31 to rotate, so that the wire rope is wound on the winding reel 31 and generates tension on the tension gauge 13. At this time, record the value on the tension gauge 13.

[0026] A linear guide rail 14 is bolted to the top of the base 1, and a slider 15 slides on the linear guide rail 14. A support frame 12 is bolted to the top of the slider 15, allowing the support frame 12, clamping member 3, tension gauge 13, and winding reel 31 to slide synchronously relative to the base 1. A stop block 16 is bolted to the top of the base 1, located at the end of the linear guide rail 14 away from the clamping rotation drive assembly 2. A threaded rod 17 is installed on the support frame 12. One end of the threaded rod 17 is inserted into the support frame 12 and clamped and fixed to the support frame 12 by two clamping nuts. The other end of the threaded rod 17 passes through the stop block 16. A stop ring 18 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 17. The stop ring 18 abuts against the side of the stop block 16 away from the support frame 12 to limit the movement of the support frame 12 toward the first three-jaw chuck 23, so that the metal flexible shaft is in a taut state during measurement. In addition, by adjusting the position of the stop ring 18, the distance between the first three-jaw chuck 23 and the second three-jaw chuck can be adjusted, thereby testing metal flexible shafts of different lengths.

[0027] Reference Figures 3 to 4 The curvature adjustment assembly 4 includes a magnetic universal base 41 (prior art) and a guide wheel 42. The magnetic universal base 41 is connected to the guide wheel 42 to drive the guide wheel 42 to rotate or move in multiple directions. The guide wheel 42 contacts a flexible metal shaft to cause the flexible metal shaft to bend. The guide wheel 42 is made of ceramic, which is more wear-resistant and its surface remains relatively smooth even after long-term use, effectively improving the service life of the entire curvature adjustment assembly 4.

[0028] Reference Figures 3 to 4The magnetic universal joint base 41 includes a magnetic base 43, a column 44, a clamping adjustment member 45, and an adjustment column 46. The base 1 is made of cast iron. The magnetic base 43 is equipped with a mechanism to control the generation or demagnetization of magnetic force, so that the magnetic base 43 and the base 1 can be attracted and fixed or released from the attraction and fixation relationship for movement. The column 44 and the adjustment column 46 are both cylinders. The column 44 is fixedly connected to the magnetic base 43 and extends vertically. The clamping adjustment member 45 is rotatably slidably sleeved on the column 44 and can be fixed at any position on the column 44. The adjustment column 46 is rotatably slidably sleeved on the clamping adjustment member 45 and can be locked or unlocked by the clamping adjustment member 45.

[0029] Reference Figures 3 to 4 The clamping adjustment component 45 includes a clamping block 451, a bolt post 452, a collar 453, and a hand-tightening nut 454. The clamping block 451 has a circular groove for the column 44 to be fitted and rotatably connected to the column 44. A deformation groove is formed on one side of the groove wall, and the deformation groove penetrates the clamping block 451 in both the opening direction and the vertical direction. A through hole is formed on the side of the clamping block 451 perpendicular to the axis of the column 44. The through hole communicates with the deformation groove. The bolt post 452 is inserted into the through hole, and both ends of the bolt post 452 protrude from the clamping block 451 in a cantilevered state. A first through hole is formed on the side wall of the bolt post 452 located outside the through hole. A collar 453 and a hand-tightening nut 454 are located on opposite sides of the clamping block 451. The collar 453 is fitted onto the end of the bolt post 452 with the first through hole, and the outer diameter of the collar 453 is larger than the diameter of the through hole. A second through hole is formed on the outer wall of the collar 453, which communicates with the first through hole. An adjusting post 46 is inserted into the first through hole and the second through hole. The hand-tightening nut 454 is threadedly connected to the bolt post 452. When the hand-tightening nut 454 is tightened, the collar 453 and the hand-tightening nut 454 can drive the clamping block 451 to deform into the deformation groove, so that the clamping block 451 is clamped and fixed on the column 44. At the same time, the bolt post 452 moves relative to the collar 453 towards the side closer to the hand-tightening nut 454, so that the first through hole and the second through hole are cross-aligned, thereby clamping and fixing the adjusting post 46. In this way, both the extension length and rotation angle of the adjustment can be adjusted.

[0030] A flat groove is formed on the side wall of one end of the adjusting column 46. A rotating plate 47 is rotatably connected to the groove wall. The rotating plate 47 is fixed to the adjusting column 46 by a locking bolt. When the locking bolt is not locked, the rotating plate 47 can rotate within a certain angle range around the locking bolt as the rotation axis. A movable adjustment hole is formed on the rotating plate 47. The locking bolt is inserted into the movable adjustment hole, so that the extension length of one end of the rotating plate 47 can be adjusted to adapt to various test scenarios. The locking bolt can also lock the movement of the rotating plate 47. Guide wheels 42 are rotatably mounted on the rotating plate 47 by bolts and nuts. At least two guide wheels are provided on the rotating plate 47 at intervals. In this embodiment, two guide wheels 42 are preferably provided.

[0031] The implementation principle of the metal flexible shaft torque measuring device in this application embodiment is as follows: the clamping rotation drive component 2 can be moved and adjusted in the direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the metal flexible shaft, so that the clamping rotation drive component 2 and the clamping member 3 are in an inclined state, thereby measuring the torque of the metal flexible shaft under the inclined state. At the same time, the magnetic universal base can drive the guide wheel 42 to achieve multi-directional adjustment, thereby adjusting the metal flexible shaft in multiple directions and multiple curvatures, so that the state of the metal flexible shaft can be closer to the actual scene, and thus measuring the torque of the metal flexible shaft in the actual scene more accurately.
