34、ock or platen.C1716/C1716M 1424.7.2 The ball and the socket shall be designed so that thesteel in the contact area of the hemispherical bearing does notpermanently deform when loaded to the capacity of the testingmachine or the rated load of the testing head.4.7.3 The curved surfaces of the hemisphe

35、rical bearingsurface shall be kept clean and shall be lubricated withpetroleum-type oil such as conventional motor oil and not withgrease.NOTE 7After contacting the specimen and application of small initialload, further tilting of the spherically seated block is neither intended nordesirable. Spheri

36、cal bearing blocks that rotate under load may reducemeasured strengths.4.7.4 The upper bearing surface and its attachment to thespherical seat shall be such that the bearing face can be rotatedfreely at least 2 in any direction perpendicular to the axis ofloading.4.7.5 Close contact of the hemispher

37、ical bearing surfaces ispreferred.

38、notextend beyond the bearing face of the upper platen or bearingblock.4.7.7 Hemispherical bearings utilizing non-integral con-struction shall be designed to withstand lateral loads up to 7 %of the maximum rated capacity of the testing head. Non-integral construction for hemispherical bearings are th

39、osebearing heads with the convex hemispherical bearing sectionmechanically connected to the bearing block or upper platen,rather than those machined from a single piece of steel.4.7.8 If any portion of the upper platen is less than 50 mm2 in. thick, that portion shall be considered a spacer forcalcu

In a hemispherical headutilizing non-integral construction, the hemispherical bearingportion shall be exempt from this requirement.4.7.9 The bearing surface shall be designed to meet therequirements of 4.10 for deflection under load.4.8 Lower Platen Design:4.8.1 If

41、the lower platen is the primary bearing surface, thebearing surface shall be designed to meet the requirements of4.10 for deflection under load.4.8.2 If any portion of the lower platen is less than 50 mm2 in. thick, it shall be considered a spacer for calculations ofdeflection under load.4.9 Prescri

42、ptive Design Requirements for Blocks and Plat-ens:4.9.1 The working surfaces of blocks, plates and platensshall be finished to better than RMS (root mean square) 63.Bearing surfaces shall be finished to RMS 30 or better. Top andbottom surfaces must be parallel within 60.0005 mm/mm0.0005 in./in. on p

In addition, the entire surface excludingthe edges mu

45、st be flat within 60.025 mm 0.001 in. If abearing surface is rated to a maximum specimen size, theflatness tolerance applies to the rated working area and therated size must be clearly indicated on the front of the plate,block, or platen. The rated working area shall meet therequirements of 4.9.2.NO

46、TE 8Compliance with flatness tolerances can be determined usinga suitable straight edge and feeler gauge. A 0.025-mm 0.001-in. feelergage should be a no-go gage under a 150-mm 6-in. straight edge on anyportion of the working area. A 0.075-mm 0.003-in. feeler gauge shouldbe a no-go gauge under a stra

47、ight edge spanning any portion of the ratedworking area. The 0.075-mm 0.003-in. feeler gauge is slightly oversizedto allow for the accuracy of straight edges over 300 mm 12 in. in length.Other suitable methods may be used.4.9.6 All surfaces used in bearing must be hardened to aminimum of 55 HRC (HB

48、560). Surface treatments such asplating shall not be used to comply with the surface hardnessrequirements. Plates and blocks with one bearing surface shallhave that surface clearly indicated with permanent markings.NOTE 9 It is preferred that bearing plates and bearing blocks have allworking surface

49、s hardened. It is recommended that bearing surfaces behardened to a depth of 1.5 mm 0.06 in. to allow for resurfacing of thebearing face.4.9.7 Permanent markings designed to aid in positioning ofspecimen and spacers or to indicate rated size that aremachined shall not exceed 0.75 mm 0.03 in. wide by 1.0 mm0.04 in. deep. Permanent markings that are etched shall notexceed 2.5 mm 0.1 in. wide by 0.005 mm 0.0002 in. deep.NOTE 10Markings are allowed, but not required by thi
