Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of force measuring machines, in particular to a force standard machine with a sensor centering device. Background Art

[0002] A large number of domestic metrology and testing institutions use force standard machines to test force sensors. The centering of sensors is mostly achieved by manual measurement of deviations, manual calculations, and manual adjustments. However, this method itself has human errors and certain safety hazards, especially for high-precision sensors, which are mostly heavy. When adjusting the position, most testers use methods such as pushing, pulling, and lifting. This adjustment method not only takes a long time to center and is inefficient, but may also cause the line of action of the force to not completely coincide with the axis of the sensor (the force can be decomposed into the axial force through the force sensor and the lateral force perpendicular to the axis. The lateral force causes the force sensor to be subjected to an additional bending moment). In this way, the high-precision sensor cannot accurately measure the magnitude of the applied external force, and the test results have certain deviations. Moreover, the poor coaxiality between the force sensor and the force standard machine will have an irreversible impact on the mechanical structure of the force standard machine in the long run, and will seriously damage the performance of the force standard machine.
