Machine for applying low velocity impacts to mechanical structures.

摘要

Machine for applying low velocity impacts to mechanical structures.; Apply with high precision the low speed impacts, providing a wide range of energies, internal or external application, from any angle of incidence and measuring the energy delivered and returned.; Includes an impactor element (1) coaxially joined to a launcher element (11) and both in turn to a base structure (27). In the armed position this assembly is linked by a pivoting latch (24) and actuators (43), governed by the control system of the machine. The impactor (1) has in its central body (2) a flange (7) which is retained in the pivoting latch (24) and at its rear end includes the valve assembly (4) propulsion. The launcher element (11) includes the tube (10) of the pneumatic propulsion cylinder, with two side windows (12) through which the valve retainer (13), others with two side windows (19) through which the yoke (20) retention emergency energy absorber (39).
