Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 shows a structural diagram of an embodiment of the umbilical cable lateral extrusion capability testing device of the present invention, which includes a loading mechanism, a contact panel 3 and a testing mechanism, specifically:
the loading mechanism comprises a tensile testing machine 1 and a tensile testing controller 6; the tensile test controller 6 is connected with the tensile testing machine 1 and is used for controlling the tensile testing machine 1; the tensile testing machine 1 is used for driving the contact panel 3 to apply lateral extrusion force to the umbilical cable sample 4.
The touch panel 3 includes an upper jig 31 and a lower jig 32 (see fig. 2) provided on the tensile testing machine 1, and the upper jig 31 and the lower jig 32 are provided to face each other; the lower clamp 32 is used for bearing the umbilical cable sample 4, the upper clamp 31 is arranged above the lower clamp 32, and the upper clamp 31 can move up and down under the driving of the tensile testing machine 1 and is matched with the lower clamp 32 to apply lateral extrusion force to the umbilical cable sample 4. It should be noted that the upper clamp 31 and the lower clamp 32 can contact the umbilical cord sample 4 and can effectively transmit the lateral pressing force, and preferably, the upper clamp 31 and the lower clamp 32 are made of hard rubber, so as to ensure that the tensioner pads used in the umbilical cord installation process of the upper clamp 31 and the lower clamp 32 are consistent.
The testing mechanism comprises a displacement-force tester 5 and a vernier caliper; the displacement-force tester 5 is used for acquiring lateral extrusion force and displacement of the umbilical cable sample 4 in real time to generate a displacement-force curve, so that the diameter deformation of the umbilical cable in the lateral pressure direction is automatically recorded; the vernier caliper is used for measuring the umbilical cable sample 4.
It should be noted that the tensile testing machine 1 adopts a hydraulic drive mode or a pneumatic drive mode to drive the contact panel 3, and specifically, the upper clamp 31 may be connected to a piston rod in the tensile testing machine 1, so as to realize the up-and-down movement of the upper clamp 31.
During work, the umbilical cable sample 4 can be placed on the lower clamp 32, then the tensile testing machine 1 is controlled by the tensile testing controller 6 so that the tensile testing machine 1 drives the upper clamp 31 to move downwards, and at the moment, the upper clamp 31 can be matched with the lower clamp 32 to apply lateral extrusion force to the umbilical cable sample 4 so as to realize the test of the lateral extrusion capacity of the umbilical cable; in the test process, the displacement-force tester 5 collects lateral extrusion force and displacement of the umbilical cable sample 4 in real time to generate a displacement-force curve; after the test is finished, the umbilical cable sample 4 is measured by the vernier caliper so as to further detect the deformation state and the performance state of the umbilical cable sample 4.
Therefore, the invention can apply lateral extrusion force to the umbilical cable sample 4 and collect the influence of the lateral extrusion force on the umbilical cable sample 4 in real time, thereby effectively simulating the mechanical response and the cross section deformation characteristics of the umbilical cable when bearing lateral extrusion in the installation process, realizing the effective test of the lateral extrusion capacity and further perfecting the test and evaluation system of the umbilical cable.
As shown in fig. 2 and 3, each of the upper and lower clamps 31 and 32 includes a left clamp 3a and a right clamp 3b (see fig. 3), and the left and right clamps 3a and 3b are connected to each other to form a "V" shaped structure. Specifically, the left clamp 3a and the right clamp 3b are steel plates with the thickness of 15-25mm, and the left clamp 3a and the right clamp 3b are manufactured in a welding mode, so that the processing is convenient. More preferably, the included angle between the left clamp 3a and the right clamp 3b is 120 °, 150 °, 130 °, 135 °, 140 °, etc.
It should be noted that, the groove side of the upper clamp 31 faces downward, and the groove side of the lower clamp 32 faces upward, so that the upper clamp 31 is matched with the lower clamp 32 to completely wrap and position the umbilical cable sample 4, thereby effectively applying lateral extrusion force to the umbilical cable sample 4 and preventing the umbilical cable sample 4 from rotating. Meanwhile, the V-shaped structure is adopted to laterally press the umbilical cable, so that the mechanical response and the section deformation characteristics of the umbilical cable when the umbilical cable bears transverse extrusion in the installation process can be effectively simulated.
As shown in fig. 3, the upper clamp 31 and the lower clamp 32 are both fixed to the loading mechanism by a positioning ring 2. That is, the upper clamp 31 can be fixed on the piston rod of the tensile testing machine 1 through the positioning ring 2, wherein the bottom of the piston rod is provided with the cross rod 7 arranged along the horizontal direction; the lower clamp 32 is fixed to the lower end of the tensile testing machine 1 through the positioning ring 2, wherein the lower end of the tensile testing machine 1 is also provided with a cross rod 7 arranged in the horizontal direction.
Specifically, the positioning rings 2 include at least a left positioning ring 2 and a right positioning ring 2. When the fixing is performed, the left end of the cross rod 7 and the left clamp 3a of the upper clamp 31 simultaneously penetrate through the annular hole of the left positioning ring 2, and the right end of the cross rod 7 and the right clamp 3b of the upper clamp 31 simultaneously penetrate through the annular hole of the right positioning ring 2, so that the cross rod 7 and the upper clamp 31 are fixed under the limiting effect of the annular hole; similarly, the left end of the cross rod 7 and the left clamp 3a of the lower clamp 32 simultaneously penetrate through the annular hole of the left positioning ring 2, and the right end of the cross rod 7 and the right clamp 3b of the lower clamp 32 simultaneously penetrate through the annular hole of the right positioning ring 2, so that the cross rod 7 and the lower clamp 32 are fixed under the limiting effect of the annular hole.
Therefore, the connection mode of the positioning ring 2, the cross bar 7, the upper clamp 31 and the lower clamp 32 is a non-fixed mode, so that the disassembly is easy and the flexibility is strong. In practical applications, the structure of the tensile testing machine 1 is not limited, and the upper clamp 31 and the lower clamp 32 can be fixed to the tensile testing machine 1 by the positioning ring 2.
Preferably, the positioning ring 2 is a rectangular ring, and four corners of the rectangular ring are in arc transition, so that the positioning ring 2 can be ensured to be more attached to the contact panel 3 and the cross rod 7, and the damage to an operator during installation can be avoided; meanwhile, the thickness of the annular wall of the positioning ring 2 is 2.5-3.5cm, preferably 3cm, so that the strength of the positioning ring 2 can be effectively ensured.
Further, upper portion anchor clamps 31 and lower part anchor clamps 32 with all be equipped with the foil gage on the contact surface of umbilical cable sample 4, the foil gage with tensile test controller 6 is connected, tensile test controller 6 gathers in real time lateral extrusion force on the foil gage to control tensile testing machine 1 effectively, realize the accurate of lateral extrusion force and apply.
