Patent attributes
The disclosure relates to a vertical Hopkinson pressure bar test device and a test method. The device comprises a guide cylinder, an incident bar, a transmission bar, a buffer bar and a striker, and further comprises a base; side support plates arranged vertically and upwards are provided symmetrically on two sides of the base, a horizontal first lateral support plate is provided at the top between the side support plates on the two sides, three groups of horizontal second lateral support plates are provided below the first lateral support plate sequentially between the side support plates on the two sides, and each group is provided with a clamping mechanism clamping a corresponding incident bar, transmission bar or buffer bar; the surfaces of the incident bar is pasted with a first strain gauge pad and the transmission bar is pasted with a second strain gauge pad. According to the disclosure, the striking velocity is accurately controlled to render a medium or low velocity for analyzing the dynamic mechanical properties of low-wave impedance materials such as coal and light concrete, satisfying the requirements of dynamic tests on high, medium and low velocities.
