Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of automobile suspension performance testing, and in particular relates to a six-degree-of-freedom displacement measuring device and method for a suspension characteristic test wheel. Background technique [0002] Because most of the suspension components are connected to the body through rubber bushings and move relative to the body, the characteristics of the suspension are usually described in the vehicle coordinate system to study the influence of body motion and tire force on the wheel alignment parameters. The traditional automobile suspension characteristics test bench adopts the quasi-static loading method to simulate the force and displacement movement of the vehicle when driving on the road on the test bench. Usually, the vehicle body is fixed on the test bench to load the wheels. The six-degree-of-freedom displacement measuring device and method measure the changes of some wheel positioning parame...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] This method needs to identify the relative position of the end axis of the measuring arm and the axis of rotation of the wheel, and correct the model parameters of the measuring arm to ensure the accuracy of the six-degree-of-freedom displacement calculation of the wheel. Moreover, the measuring arm mechanism is connected in series, and there is a cumulative error; the coordinates of the measuring arm are required during the test. Each coordinate axis of the vehicle coordinate system is parallel to each coordinate axis of the automobile coordinate system, which requires high installation accuracy of the measuring arm; one end of the measuring device is fixed with the fixture, and the impact, flexibility and gravity of the mechanism will affect the dynamic feedback of the joint corner; the other part of the measuring device One end is fixed with the test bench, a
