Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of torque calibration, and in particular to a calibration device and a calibration method for a torque measurement system. Background Art

[0002] Gearbox is the core component and key failure component in the transmission field. It is composed of multi-stage gear shaft system, which transmits both speed and torque in the power transmission process. In most cases, the working environment of gearbox is relatively harsh, especially the main gearbox of wind power, whose operating load is variable and often encounters extreme load conditions. Monitoring its input and output torque is of great significance for the health monitoring of gearbox.

[0003] At present, due to the small torque of high-speed shaft systems, it is easy to purchase mature torque meter products for accurate measurement. However, it is difficult to accurately measure and monitor the torque of several thousand kilonewton meters of the main shaft of a heavy-duty gearbox. The main reason is that it is difficult to accurately calibrate the torque measurement system. Because the bearings of large megawatt motors are sliding bearings, it is impossible to lock one motor in a stationary state and the other motor applies a large torque according to the load step, so it is impossible to accurately calibrate the torque measurement system. If the calibration of the torque measurement system is inaccurate, the torque measurement system will also measure the torque of the heavy-duty gearbox main shaft inaccurately, and it will not be able to effectively monitor the main shaft torque state.

[0004] Therefore, a new type of calibration device for torque measurement system is urgently needed to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the invention
