Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the field of inertial technology and the field of application research of photoelectric encoders, and particularly relates to a method for assembling and adjusting a dual-read head photoelectric encoder on a gyro accelerometer. BACKGROUND

[0002] A pendulous integral gyro accelerometer (hereinafter referred to as a gyro accelerometer) is installed on a platform with stable inertial space and is used for measuring the apparent acceleration of a carrier. It is still the highest-precision accelerometer in current engineering applications and is an irreplaceable core inertial instrument in an inertial navigation system. Since the performance and precision of the gyro accelerometer directly affect the navigation position precision of the carrier, it is of great significance to ensure the measurement precision of the gyro accelerometer for achieving high-precision navigation of the carrier.

[0003] According to the working principle of the gyro accelerometer, it is known that the outer ring rotation speed of the gyro accelerometer is in a linear proportional relationship with the apparent acceleration. The outer ring can be regarded as a general shaft system, and an angle sensor is used to measure the rotation angle (angular position) of the shaft system. The rotation angle in a certain time is divided by the time to obtain the rotation speed. The angle sensor has photoelectric, inductive, capacitive, rotary variable, and variable reluctance types, each having advantages and disadvantages. Generally, a variable reluctance sensor is used as an angle sensor in the gyro accelerometer. It outputs sine and cosine signals during precession of the gyro accelerometer, converts the sine and cosine signals into pulses with positive and negative polarities with reference to a magnetizing signal, and counts the pulses. The number of pulses in a unit time represents the size of the apparent acceleration. At present, a photoelectric encoder has broken through technical difficulties such as long-term stability of a light source and weak structural strength, and has good performance in harsh environments. It has been widely used in occasions with long-term stable operation and high-precision measurement. The patent “Gyro accelerometer output system based on photoelectric encoder” (application number CN202411385818) proposes a new technical solution of a gyro accelerometer outer ring output device in which a photoelectric encoder replaces a variable reluctance sensor, breaks through the limitation of the output precision of the original variable reluctance sensor, and improves the precision of the pendulous gyro accelerometer. The precision of the photoelectric encoder is affected by factors such as installation error, scale error, and electronic subdivision error. In particular, the first-order error caused by the installation eccentricity accounts for the largest proportion. It is difficult to compensate for these errors by using a single-read head technical solution, which limits the precision of the single-read head photoelectric encoder. In order to improve the angular measurement precision of the gyro accelerometer outer ring based on the photoelectric encoder, a gyro accelerometer outer ring angular measurement scheme based on a dual-read head photoelectric encoder is proposed. The dual-read head can compensate for the installation error in principle, so that the angular measurement of the gyro accelerometer outer ring is higher than that of the single-read head photoelectric encoder. However, in practice, high-precision installation is a prerequisite for high precision of the dual-read head and is also a sufficient and necessary condition for ensuring higher precision of the gyro accelerometer outer ring angular measurement device.

[0049] The light-emitting plate is mounted on the light-indicating base. Three infrared solid-state light-emitting diodes (SLEDs) corresponding to the sine, cosine, and zero-position signals are set on the light-emitting plate. The infrared SLEDs emit light under the power supply and provide the light source. The light-indicating base is the mounting reference for the light-emitting plate and the static grating.
