Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of joint actuator detection, and particularly relates to a joint actuator offline detection method. BACKGROUND

[0002] The robot joint actuator is a core power component of a robot system, which integrates a servo motor, a high-precision reducer, a brake, a sensor and the like, and undertakes the key task of converting electric energy into accurate mechanical movement. Performance parameters of the joint actuator, such as output torque, rotation angle accuracy, backlash, efficiency and brake holding capacity, directly determine the motion accuracy, dynamic response, load capacity and overall reliability of the robot. In the high-end field of industrial robots, service robots and even humanoid robots, the performance consistency and long-term durability of the joint actuator are key indicators for evaluating the quality and reliability thereof.

[0003] With the rapid development of humanoid robots, collaborative robots and the like, more stringent technical requirements, such as light weight, high power density, low backlash, high reverse drive efficiency and the like, are put forward for the joint actuator. The traditional industrial planetary reducer is difficult to fully meet the special needs of these frontier applications in terms of weight and backlash control. This trend makes the End of Line (EOL) test of the joint actuator before leaving the factory very important. Through comprehensive and accurate EOL testing, unqualified products can be screened out, the performance consistency of the products leaving the factory can be ensured, and reliable data support can be provided for the iterative optimization of the products.

[0004] However, the offline detection of the joint actuator in the industry currently has the following problems: (1) Low degree of automation: many detection stations still rely on manual clamping, interfacing and testing operations, which not only is low in efficiency, but also is prone to errors caused by human factors, resulting in poor consistency of test results; (2) Single detection item: some detection devices have only single function, and can only test a specific performance (such as torque or rotation speed), and cannot complete comprehensive performance tests including load performance, angle accuracy, brake holding and the like in one station, resulting in complicated detection process and large occupation of production line space; (3) Inaccurate load simulation: when a load needs to be applied for testing, the traditional loading method may not accurately and stably simulate the real working conditions of the joint actuator, affecting the accuracy of torque and angle detection data; (4) Insufficient interfacing accuracy and safety: if there is deviation between the mechanical interfacing between the detection device and the output shaft of the actuator, the test results will be affected, and the product may be damaged; meanwhile, there is insufficient safety protection during the testing process, and there is a certain risk.

[0035] The other specific embodiments of the embodiment are the same as or equivalent to those of the embodiment 1, and will not be described in detail.

[0036] Embodiment 3 The joint actuator 1 offline detection method of the embodiment is realized by using the joint actuator 1 offline detection device as described in the embodiment 1 or the embodiment 2. Specifically, as shown in Figure 9 the joint actuator 1 offline detection method of the embodiment comprises the following steps.

[0037] Step one: installation and information input. The operator installs the joint actuator 1 on the workpiece positioning and clamping tool 25, clamps and fixes it by using the workpiece moving and clamping tool 26, and completes the electrical connection through the power connection assembly 27. Then, the code scanning gun 38 is taken from the code scanning gun placing station 39, and the identity (such as a bar code or a two-dimensional code) of the joint actuator 1 is scanned. The host computer obtains the product information accordingly, and automatically loads the test item sequence and the qualification standard corresponding to the joint actuator 1 of the same type.

[0038] Step two: system initialization and sensor readiness. Start the detection program, turn on the external signal sensor switch, enable the host computer to communicate with the torque detection mechanism 35 (torque sensor) and the angle detection mechanism 36 (grating encoder), and ensure that the torque and angle data can be read in real time.

[0039] Step three: communication establishment and pre-test verification. The host computer establishes communication with the joint actuator 1 through the CANOpen communication protocol and reads its internal parameters such as firmware version, reducer speed ratio, motor pole pair number, etc. The system performs matching verification on the information and the preset test items, i.e. confirms the matching of the joint actuator 1 and the test items, confirms whether the joint actuator 1 and the test items are correct, whether the firmware written by the front-end process is correct, and ensures that the test conditions and product specifications are consistent. If there is no problem in detection, the test can be performed.

[0040] Step four: execute the preset performance test sequence. According to the preset test item sequence, one or more performance tests are performed, including friction resistance test, starting torque test, torque constant test, angle transmission error test, return error test, repeated positioning accuracy test, hysteresis curve and backlash test, efficiency test and reverse drag torque test.

[0041] (1) Friction resistance test: collect the output speed and torque of the joint actuator 1 at different speeds, draw the speed-torque curve and fit it by the least square method.

[0042] The driving sliding platform 21 moves along the first linear guide rail 22 to separate the docking shaft 30 from the docking end 33, and the output end of the joint actuator 1 is in an empty load state (before docking). The host computer controls the joint actuator 1 to run stably at different speeds (output shaft speed 1 rad / s, 2 rad / s, 3 rad / s, 4 rad / s, 5 rad / s) through CAN instructions, collects the output speed and torque of the joint actuator 1 through CAN, draws the speed-torque curve, and fits the curve with a slope of k according to the least square method. Specifically, in this embodiment, the friction resistance test includes the following contents: controlling the joint actuator 1 to run stably at different output speeds in the empty load state of the output end; collecting the output speed and torque data of the joint actuator 1 through the CAN bus; drawing the speed-torque curve, and using the least square method to fit the formula representing the friction resistance: Wherein: is the empty load friction torque; is the output speed of the joint actuator 1; and are constants.

[0043] (2) Start torque test: slowly increase the torque from 0 until the output shaft starts to rotate, record the torque value at this point.

[0044] Specifically, the driving sliding platform 21 moves along the first linear guide rail 22 to separate the docking shaft 30 from the docking end 33. The start torque includes a forward start torque and a reverse start torque test. Both the forward start torque test and the reverse start torque test need to select 5 electric potentials at the output end of the joint actuator 1. The torque test is performed at these points, and then the maximum start torque value is taken as the result of the start torque test.

[0045] In this embodiment, the start torque test includes forward and reverse start torque tests.
