CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201810706009.2, filed on Jul. 2, 2018, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present application relates to a touch gauge, and more particularly to a touch gauge which may measure a height difference between a high and a low surfaces on a bottom surface of a work piece.

BACKGROUND ART

In the field of machining automotive parts, on the bottom surface of some large work pieces, it is often required to measure the height difference between the high and low surfaces on the bottom surface. Measurements are usually made by a coordinate measuring machine (CMM), but this measurement is very inefficient and not suitable for mass production.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

It is an object of the present application to provide a tapered hole position gauge which may measure the tapered hole position of a wheel bolt hole.

In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present application: Right-angle touch gauge, includes a fixing block, a floating column, an upper screw, an upper spring, a measuring column, a lower spring, a measuring sleeve and a lower screw. The lower cylindrical portion of the floating column is matched with a vertical hole in the fixing block. The upper screw is fixed to the left side of the fixing block, and the top end of the upper screw is matched with a slot in the floating column. The upper spring is sleeved on the outer side of the cylinder of the floating column, and is placed above the fixing block. The left cylinder of the measuring column is matched with a transverse hole of the fixing block. The lower screw is fixed in the lower portion of the fixing block, and the top end of the lower screw is matched with a slot in the measuring column. The measuring sleeve is fixed to the right side of the fixing block and is matched with the right cylinder of the measuring column. The lower spring is sleeved on the right cylinder of the measuring column, and is placed on the left side of the measuring sleeve. The top end of the floating column is a round head and the bottom end thereof is a degree cone.

The left side of the measuring column is a degree cone, and the edge of the right side is kept at a sharp angle. The cone of the lower end of the floating column is matched with the left cone of the measuring column. The edge of an inner hole of the measuring sleeve is kept at a sharp angle.

During the operation, top end round head of the floating column is in contact with the bottom surface of the work piece. The floating column is compressed downward when it contacts the high surface of the bottom surface of the work piece, the measuring column is compressed to the right by matching the lower cone of the floating column with the left cone of the measuring column, and it may be found whether the height difference between the high surface and the low surface of the bottom surface of the work piece is qualified by observing whether the end edge of the right cylinder of the measuring column is placed between the steps of the right end surface of the measuring sleeve.

The invention may measure the height difference between the high surface and low surface on the bottom surface of the work piece in use, and has the characteristics of simple structure, convenient use, high measurement efficiency and low production cost.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The details and operation of a specific device according to the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The device includes a fixing block 1, a floating column 2, an upper screw 3, an upper spring 4, a measuring column 5, a lower spring 6, a measuring sleeve 7 and a lower screw 8. The lower cylindrical portion of the floating column 2 is matched with a vertical hole in the fixing block 1. The upper screw 3 is fixed to the left side of the fixing block 1, and the top end of the upper screw 3 is matched with a slot in the floating column 2. The upper spring 4 is sleeved on outer side of the cylinder of the floating column 2, and is placed above the fixing block 1. The left cylinder of the measuring column 5 is matched with a transverse hole of the fixing block 1. The lower screw 8 is fixed in the lower portion of the fixing block 1, and the top end thereof is matched with a slot in the measuring column 5. The measuring sleeve 7 is fixed to the right side of the fixing block 1 and is matched with the right cylinder of the measuring column 5. The lower spring 6 is sleeved on the right cylinder of the measuring column 5, and is placed on the left side of the measuring sleeve 7. The top end of the floating column 2 is a round head and the bottom end of the floating column 2 is a 45 degree cone.

The left side of the measuring column 5 is a 45 degree cone, and the edge of the right side is kept at a sharp angle. The cone of the lower end of the floating column 2 is matched with the left cone of the measuring column 5. The edge of an inner hole of the measuring sleeve 7 is kept at a sharp angle.

During the operation, the round head of the top end of the floating column 2 is in contact with the bottom surface of the work piece. The floating column 2 is compressed downward when it contacts the high surface of the bottom surface of the work piece, the measuring column 5 is compressed to the right by matching the lower cone of the floating column 2 with the left cone of the measuring column 5. It can be found whether the height difference between the high surface and the low surface of the bottom surface of the work piece is qualified by observing whether the end edge of the right cylinder of the measuring column 5 is placed between the steps of the right end surface of the measuring sleeve 7. The present application may improve measurement efficiency and meet the requirements for process monitoring in mass production.
