Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automated measurement, and particularly to a thin-walled part surface measurement system and a measurement method that take into account both economy and speed. Background Art

[0002] Thin-walled parts have characteristics such as light weight and compact structure. There are many types of them, including T-shaped structures, L-shaped structures, and arc-shaped structures, etc., and they are widely used in industries such as aerospace and automotive. The surface topography and geometric dimensions of thin-walled parts after processing are important links for evaluating processing quality, and have a key impact on important indicators such as the service life and safety performance of products. At present, there are mainly three ways to measure the surface of thin-walled parts: one is a coordinate measuring machine. Although the coordinate measuring machine has high measurement accuracy, its measurement speed is slow. In addition, the equipment cost of high-precision coordinate measuring machines is relatively high, which further limits its application in mass production; the second is a laser scanner. The laser scanner requires the surface of the workpiece to be measured to have good reflectivity, and a specific label needs to be pasted on the surface of the workpiece. The measurement results are greatly affected by the environment; the third is the structured light surface measurement method, represented by fringe projection profilometry, which can quickly obtain three-dimensional topography data by extracting fringe phases. Compared with the coordinate measuring machine and the laser scanner, the structured light method has significant advantages such as fast measurement speed, high accuracy, and simple system structure, and is gradually favored in industrial applications.

[0003] Existing multi-view structured light workpiece measurement systems mainly have two working modes: one is to fix the camera and projector, and realize multi-view measurement by rotating the turntable; the other is to fix the position of the thin-walled part, and use the movement of the six-axis robotic arm equipped with a camera and a projector to complete multi-view measurement. However, both of these modes have inevitable mechanical errors, such as the rotation error of the turntable mode or the movement error of the robotic arm mode, resulting in an increase in multi-view fitting error. In addition, whether it is a high-precision turntable or a six-axis robot, their high equipment costs also increase the overall investment in thin-walled part detection, limiting their large-scale application.

[0036] As a preferred technical solution, the stitching of the forward-view morphology data and the reverse-view morphology data to obtain the three-dimensional reconstructed morphology of the thin-walled part to be measured includes:

[0037] Fix the thin-walled part to be measured at the center of the measurement field of view.

[0042] Precisely register the front point cloud data and the back point cloud data through a point cloud registration algorithm to reconstruct a complete three-dimensional topography.

[0043] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0044] First, high measurement accuracy: The thin-walled part surface measurement system provided by the present invention adopts a multi-view and multi-device layout for both the front and back, avoiding the use of auxiliary devices such as high-precision turntables and robotic arms, and eliminating the multi-view fitting error caused by the mechanical errors of the turntable or robotic arm;

[0056] Referring to "embodiments" herein means that the specific features, structures or characteristics described in connection with the embodiments can be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The phrase appears in various places in the specification and does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. Those skilled in the art explicitly and implicitly understand that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0057] A thin-walled part refers to a part or component with a wall structure having a relatively small thickness, and its thickness is usually much smaller than its length and width dimensions. Such parts are very common in the fields of aerospace, automotive, electronics, mechanical manufacturing, etc. Because of their advantages such as light weight, compact structure, and high material utilization rate, they are widely used in various structural and functional components.

[0058] A profile refers to the external shape or contour surface of an object, especially those with complex geometric shapes. Profiles are usually used to describe the external shape characteristics of parts or components, including their two-dimensional contours and three-dimensional surfaces.

[0059] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the embodiments of this application provide a thin-walled part profile measurement system, and the system includes:

[0060] A workpiece table for placing the thin-walled part 1 to be measured;

[0061] A front-view data acquisition subsystem A is installed at the front-view of the thin-walled workpiece 1 to be measured, and is used to acquire the front-view topography data of the thin-walled workpiece 1 to be measured;

[0062] The reverse viewing angle data acquisition subsystem B is installed at the reverse viewing angle of the thin-walled workpiece 1 to be measured, and is used to collect the reverse viewing angle morphology data of the thin-walled workpiece 1 to be measured;

[0063] A stereo calibration plate is used to calibrate the relative positions of the positive-view data acquisition subsystem and the reverse-view data acquisition subsystem to obtain calibration parameters;

[0064] The first background plate D1 is installed on the side of the workpiece table away from the front-view data acquisition subsystem A, and is used to provide a background when the front-view data acquisition subsystem A collects front-view topography data;

[0065] The second background plate D2 is installed on the side of the workpiece table away from the reverse-view data acquisition subsystem B, and is used to provide a background when the reverse-view data acquisition subsystem B collects reverse-view topography data;

[0066] The host computer 2 is connected to the positive-view data acquisition subsystem A and the reverse-view data acquisition subsystem B, respectively, and is used to control the time-sharing triggering of the positive-view data acquisition subsystem A and the reverse-view data acquisition subsystem B to obtain the positive-view morphology data and the reverse-view morphology data, splice the positive-view morphology data and the reverse-view morphology data, and obtain the three-dimensional reconstructed morphology of the thin-walled part 1 to be measured.

[0067] The first background plate D1 and the second background plate D2 can reduce the interference of ambient light and provide uniform background brightness during the profile measurement process.

[0068] Optionally, the orthographic data acquisition subsystem A includes: a first camera C1, a second camera C2, and a first high-speed projector P1, and a baseline distance between the first camera C1 and the first high-speed projector P1 is greater than a baseline distance between the second camera C2 and the first high-speed projector P1;

[0069] The reverse viewing angle data acquisition subsystem includes: a third camera C3, a fourth camera C4 and a second high-speed projector P2, and the baseline distance between the third camera C3 and the second high-speed projector P2 is smaller than the baseline distance between the fourth camera C4 and the second high-speed projector P2.

[0070] It can be understood that the camera with a relatively large baseline distance from the above-mentioned high-speed projector can be called a long-baseline camera, while the camera with a relatively small baseline distance from the high-speed projector can be called a short-baseline camera. The thin-walled parts machined by a milling cutter usually have complex three-dimensional shape features, including curved surfaces, sharp edges, and fine grooves left during milling. The short-baseline camera has a closer view to the projector, which can effectively reduce data loss caused by occlusion or surface reflection and accurately capture the details of the thin-walled parts, such as edge contours and local minute deformations. The long-baseline camera, on the other hand, improves the resolution of the overall shape and depth changes of the thin-walled parts through more significant parallax. Especially when measuring the airfoil surface or large-span areas of the thin-walled parts, it can provide higher depth accuracy. The fusion of the two baseline data can not only cover the complex geometric shapes of the full size of the thin-walled parts but also ensure the comprehensiveness and reliability of the measurement results.

[0071] Optionally, the host computer 2 is further configured to:

[0072] Fuse the first data and the second data to obtain the front-view morphology data of the thin-walled part 1 to be measured; wherein, the first data is the data collected by the first camera C1, and the second data is the data collected by the second camera C2;

[0073] Fuse the third data and the fourth data to obtain the reverse-view morphology data of the thin-walled part 1 to be measured; wherein, the third data is the data collected by the third camera C3, and the fourth data is the data collected by the fourth camera C4.

[0074] Optionally, the host computer 2 is further configured to:

[0075] Control the first camera C1, the second camera C2, and the first high-speed projector P1 in the front-view data acquisition system A to be synchronously triggered;

[0076] And control the third camera C3, the fourth camera C4, and the second high-speed projector P2 in the reverse-view data acquisition system B to be synchronously triggered.

[0077] It can be understood that in addition to using binocular structured light for data acquisition, the above-mentioned front-view data acquisition subsystem A and reverse-view data acquisition subsystem B can also be extended to other structures, such as:

[0078] The front-view data acquisition subsystem A can be a data acquisition subsystem based on N (N≥1)-eye structured light;

[0079] The reverse-view data acquisition subsystem B can be a data acquisition subsystem based on M (M≥1)-eye structured light.

[0080] Optionally, the host computer 2 splices the front-view morphology data and the reverse-view morphology data to obtain the three-dimensional reconstructed morphology of the thin-walled part 1 to be measured, including:

[0081] The phase unwrapping is performed on the positive-view data and the negative-view data by using a deep learning neural network to obtain the true phase; the true phase is converted into height data by using the phase-height model parameters; the positive and negative-view height data are unified in the same world coordinate system by using the space transfer matrix of the positive and negative-view data acquisition subsystem; and the point cloud registration algorithm is used to accurately align the positive and negative-view height data to generate a complete three-dimensional reconstructed topography.

[0082] It can be understood that the phase data collected by the camera is usually wrapped phase. The wrapped phase refers to the phase value after folding due to phase overrun (usually 2π). In structured light measurement, the modulation of the structured light by each point on the object surface will cause the phase of the light to change. When obtaining the phase information by calculating the change in light intensity before and after phase shift, due to the periodicity of the arctangent function, its value range is usually limited to -π to π. These wrapped phases cannot directly provide the complete three-dimensional information of the object surface, and the true phase value needs to be restored through the unwrapping process.

[0083] Optionally, the above thin-walled part surface measurement system further includes: a first electric slide rail, a first background plate, a second electric slide rail, and a second background plate, and the first electric slide rail and the second electric slide rail are respectively connected to the host computer;

[0084] The first electric slide rail is installed on one side of the workpiece table away from the positive-view data acquisition subsystem A; the first background plate D1 is installed on the first electric slide rail and is used to provide a background when the positive-view data acquisition subsystem A acquires positive-view topography data;

[0085] The second electric slide rail is installed on one side of the workpiece table away from the negative-view data acquisition subsystem B; the second background plate D2 is installed on the second electric slide rail and is used to provide a background when the negative-view data acquisition subsystem B acquires negative-view topography data;

[0086] Both the first background plate and the second background plate are made of black acrylic PMMA material.

[0087] The host computer is further configured to: when the positive-view data acquisition subsystem A is triggered, control the first electric slide rail to drive the first background plate D1 to move to the working position, and control the second electric slide rail to drive the second background plate D2 to move to the non-working position. The background plate moving to the working position means rising to serve as the background of the thin-walled part to be measured, and moving to the non-working position means descending below the platform where the thin-walled part to be measured is located; and when the negative-view data acquisition subsystem B is triggered, control the electric slide rail to drive the second background plate D2 to move to the working position, and control the electric slide rail to drive the first background plate D1 to move to the non-working position.

[0088] The system calibration process of the above thin-walled part surface measurement system is introduced as follows: First, the principle of the global calibration process is introduced:

[0089] Binocular camera calibration is to further determine the specific positional relationship between the left and right cameras relative to the world coordinate system based on the results of monocular camera calibration, that is, by using the rotation matrices R l 、R r and translation matrices T l 、T r . Assuming there is a point P in the world coordinate system, the following relationship can be obtained, where P l and P r are the coordinates of point P in the left camera coordinate system and the right camera coordinate system respectively in the world coordinate system.

[0090] P l =R l P+T l

[0091] P r =R r P+T r

[0092] P r =RP l +T

[0093] From the above three equations, the rotation matrix R and translation matrix T for converting the left camera to the right camera can be obtained.

[0094]

[0095] T=T r -RT l

[0096] Projector calibration is completed by regarding the projector as a reverse camera. By projecting a calibration pattern onto the plane where the calibration board is located and collecting it with the camera, the three-dimensional coordinates of the projection feature points in the calibration board coordinate system can be solved using the camera calibration parameters, and then the calibration parameters of the projector can be calculated using the camera imaging model.

[0097] The relative position of the cameras in the forward and reverse views is determined based on the double-sided calibration pattern of the stereo calibration board. As Figure 3 shown, the following conversion relationship can be obtained, where [R E T E is the conversion matrix from the third camera coordinate system in the reverse view to the first camera coordinate system in the forward view:

[0098]

[0099] Secondly, the global calibration process of the above thin-walled part surface measurement system is introduced, including:

[0100] First, with the help of a three-dimensional calibration board with calibration patterns on both sides, the side photographed by camera C1 is set as the front of the calibration board, and the side photographed by camera C3 is set as the back of the calibration board. The projector-binocular camera system calibration for the front and back is carried out respectively to obtain their internal and external parameters. Then, according to the binocular camera calibration principle, the relative positions of the two cameras on the same side are determined. Next, according to the rotation matrix R0 and translation matrix T0 of the calibration patterns on the front and back sides of the three-dimensional calibration board, the relative positions of the first camera coordinate system and the third camera coordinate system are determined. Finally, the global calibration of the front and back multi-view projector-binocular camera system is realized.

[0101] Taking the T-shaped curved thin-walled part as an example, the working principle of the above-mentioned thin-walled part surface measurement system is introduced as follows:

[0102] 1. According to the required measurement accuracy and measurement field of view of the T-shaped curved thin-walled part, calculate the baseline distance, working distance, deflection angle, etc. of each group of cameras and projectors, and use the three-dimensional calibration board to perform the global calibration of the front and back multi-view projector-binocular camera system;

[0103] 2. Fix the position of the T-shaped curved thin-walled part, install the first background board D1 using the first electric slide rail, and lower the second background board D2. The host computer 2 controls the positive-view data acquisition subsystem A to trigger synchronously to collect the positive-view topography data of the thin-walled part;

[0104] 3. Keep the position of the T-shaped curved thin-walled part unchanged, install the second background board D2 using the second electric slide rail, and lower the first background board D1. The host computer 2 controls the negative-view data acquisition subsystem B to trigger synchronously to collect the negative-view topography data of the thin-walled part;

[0105] 4. The host computer 2 fuses the surface data collected by the two cameras in the positive view to obtain the point cloud of the positive-view topography data of the thin-walled part, and then fuses the surface data collected by the two cameras in the negative view to obtain the point cloud of the negative-view topography data of the thin-walled part;

[0106] 5.
