Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of nondestructive testing, and in particular to the field of electrical infrared thermal imaging testing of resistance strain gauges. Background Art
[0002] Resistance strain gauges are commonly used to measure the parameters of sensors such as force sensors, displacement sensors, strain sensors, velocity sensors, and acceleration sensors. They have the advantages of small structural size, high detection accuracy, stable and reliable performance, etc. They play an important role in precision measurement fields such as aerospace, ships, bridges, and scales. Common resistance strain gauges are thin-film substrate resistance strain gauges, which are often composed of a covering layer, a metal sensitive grid, an insulating adhesion layer, a substrate, and other parts. Under harsh and extreme working environments, the insulating adhesion layer of the resistance strain gauge fails in some parts, resulting in adhesion defects, causing changes in the insulation resistance or sensitive grid resistance, seriously affecting the static and dynamic characteristics of the resistance strain gauge, and even causing the strain gauge to fail. Therefore, the detection of adhesion defects in resistance strain gauges has important application value for monitoring the overall health and performance of strain gauges.
[0003] At present, the impedance analysis method is often used for strain gauge defect detection at home and abroad to perform impedance analysis on the insulation resistance and sensitive grid resistance of the strain gauge. The impedance analysis method performs impedance spectrum analysis on the resistance strain gauge. By comparing it with the impedance spectrum of the normal strain gauge, it can be qualitatively determined whether the strain gauge has defects, but the location of micro-adhesion defects cannot be obtained through impedance spectrum analysis.
[0004] Since the width of the sensitive grid line is often in the micron range, an optical microscope is usually used to detect the entire strain gauge area by area. The optical microscope can detect the shape and position of the surface sensitive grid, but the adhesion micro-defect is below the sensitive grid, and the optical microscope method cannot detect this type of defect. At the same time, the optical microscope is based on optical detection, which can detect transparent materials, but it is difficult to achieve non-destructive testing inside the material. Moreover, since the adhesion defect occurs in the local position of the insulating adhesion layer, the optical microscope often confuses the cover layer defect with the adhesion defect, so the misjudgment rate is high.
[0005] Prior art CN108416778A discloses a phase-locked thermal imaging tomography characterization system for integrated circuit micro-defects, which uses electrical excitation to realize integrated circuit excitation using sinusoidal currents of different frequencies, obtains phase information through a phase-locked algorithm, and determines defect depth information based on the intrinsic relationship between the defect and the phase. However, it is not applicable to resistance strain gauges because the adhesion micro-defects unique to strain gauges are at the micron level, and based on the unique characteristics of the resistance strain gauge grid line, it is also impossible to directly determine the defect location.
[0006] Currently, there is a lack of a reliable and fast imaging detection method to detect and identify adhesion micro-defects of resistance strain gauges. Summary of the invention

[0045] The present invention is beneficial in that:
[0046] The invention solves the problem of detecting and identifying adhesion micro-defects of resistance strain gauges.
[0047] (1) The prior art uses an impedance analysis method to analyze the impedance spectrum of the resistance strain gauge. By comparing it with the impedance spectrum of the normal strain gauge, it can qualitatively determine whether the strain gauge has defects, but the location of the micro-adhesion defect cannot be obtained through impedance spectrum analysis. The present invention uses electro-infrared thermal imaging detection technology to reliably and quickly detect the adhesion micro-defects of the resistance strain gauge: when the sensitive grid of the thin film substrate resistance strain gauge and the substrate have adhesion micro-defects, contact resistance is formed. Under the action of current, a heat source will be formed at the contact resistance. The detection and positioning of adhesion micro-defects are realized by combining infrared detection technology with relevant image processing algorithms. The physical process is clearer and the method is more reliable, which greatly improves the location of the sample and the determination of the cause of the defect, and improves the detection efficiency.
[0048] (2) The prior art uses an optical microscope for detection, which confuses coating defects with adhesion defects, resulting in a high misjudgment rate. At the same time, optical microscopes are based on optical detection and can detect transparent materials, but it is difficult to achieve non-destructive testing of the interior of materials. The present invention overcomes the bias of the prior art, adopts a high spatial resolution microscope lens, and uses an infrared thermal imaging detection method to use electric current to excite the sample, so that the sensitive grid and defect of the sample generate heat and emit infrared thermal radiation information. This method can detect surface and internal defects of the sample without being affected by the light transmittance of the material, avoids confusion between coating defects and adhesion defects, and can intuitively distinguish adhesion defects. It provides a powerful means for reliable and rapid non-destructive testing of resistance strain gauges, can replace traditional optical microscopic imaging detection methods, and has broad application prospects in the field of precision measurement.
[0049] (3) The present invention utilizes a non-contact imaging detection method to avoid the inability to distinguish other defects caused by contact from adhesion micro-defects; the non-contact imaging of the present invention improves the accuracy of detection.
[0050] (4) This application proposes an electric infrared thermal imaging detection method and system for micron-level adhesion micro-defects unique to strain gauges, and uses relays to achieve phase-locked or long pulse modulation. Compared with the direct use of DC power modulation in the prior art CN108416778A, it achieves higher frequency modulation. Since the modulation frequency is proportional to the infrared thermal resolution, the use of relay modulation can provide higher resolution and provide conditions for accurate resolution of micro-adhesion defects; secondly, based on the unique characteristics of the strain gauge grid line, an equivalent circuit diagram of defects at different positions is established. The effective sensitive grid area and defect separation and defect plane position information determination are achieved through the equivalent circuit diagram combined with the infrared characteristic image (including the amplitude and phase image obtained by the phase-locked algorithm, and other algorithms such as long pulse amplitude and phase image) instead of obtaining defect depth information through phase information.
[0051] (5) The present invention combines Ohm's law and the law of thermal radiation, and increases the thermal radiation at the adhesion micro-defects of the electroresistance strain gauge. It is not only suitable for the detection of adhesion micro-defects of the resistance strain gauge, but also suitable for the detection of defects such as sensitive grid size and spacing, broken grid, and terminals.
[0052] The invention is applicable to the field of nondestructive testing of sensors. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0079] Example 5, see Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The present embodiment is described in detail. The resistance strain gauge adhesion micro-defect detection method described in the present embodiment is implemented according to the infrared thermal imaging detection system described in the second embodiment, and the detection method includes:
[0080] S1: Fix the resistance strain gauge 10 to be tested on the upper surface of the X-axis sample moving track 7, and complete the collection of test data for the resistance strain gauge 10 to be tested through steps S2 to S7;
[0081] S2: Connect the positive probe station 5 to the a terminal of the resistance strain gauge to be measured, and connect the negative probe station 6 to the b terminal of the resistance strain gauge 10 to be measured;
[0082] S3: Turn on the DC power switch, adjust the focal length of the medium-wave infrared thermal imager 2, the rotary motion stage 1, the Y-axis moving platform 9 and the Z-axis moving stage 25, so that the medium-wave infrared thermal imager 2 acquires the first grid line area of the resistance strain gauge 10 to be measured;
[0083] S4: Turn off the DC power switch, adjust the connection between the negative electrode probe station 6 and the A terminal of the resistance strain gauge 10 to be measured, and turn on the DC power switch;

[0085] S6: According to the size of the resistance strain gauge 10 to be measured, by adjusting the Y-moving stage 8 and the X-direction sample moving track 7, imaging other positions of the resistance strain gauge 10 to be measured, repeating step S5 until all the grid line areas of the resistance strain gauge 10 to be measured are collected, and disconnecting the DC power switch;
[0086] S7: respectively adjust the connection between the positive electrode probe station 5 and the terminals a, b, c and d of the resistance strain gauge to be measured, and after each adjustment, turn on the DC power switch, repeat steps S5 and S6, and complete the detection of the strain gauge 10 to be measured when the positive electrode probe station 5 is connected to each terminal a, b, c and d of the resistance strain gauge 10 to be measured;
[0087] S8: The computer processes all the infrared thermal images obtained through a feature enhancement image processing algorithm to obtain infrared feature images, and determines and locates the adhesion micro-defects of the resistance strain gauge based on the infrared feature images combined with the equivalent circuit structure.
[0088] like Figure 2 As shown, take the resistance strain gauge to be measured as an example with four sensitive grids: Figure 2 (a), where pad1~pad4 represent the sensitive gate access terminals, i.e. Figure 4 Each terminal a to d in the resistance strain gauge to be measured is equivalent, and A is the base terminal; Figure 2 (b) is the equivalent circuit structure under the micro-defect state near the sensitive gate resistor R1; Figure 2 (c) is the equivalent circuit structure when there is a micro defect on the sensitive gate resistor R1; Figure 2 (d) is the equivalent circuit structure under the micro-defect state at the connection between the sensitive gate resistor R1 and the sensitive gate resistor R2; Figure 2 (e) is the equivalent circuit structure when there is a micro defect on the sensitive gate resistor R2; Figure 2(f) is the equivalent circuit structure of the micro-defect state at the connection between the sensitive gate resistor R2 and the sensitive gate resistor R3. According to the infrared detection principle, any resistance (such as the sensitive gate resistor) can generate heat under the action of current. In the infrared image display, the above equivalent circuit structure can effectively screen the abnormal adhesion defect area.

Figure 2 (f) It can be seen that the sensitive gate resistors R1 and R2 are normal, and the defect should occur between the sensitive gate resistors R2 and R3. According to the actual position, it can be determined that the defect is the damage of terminal c.

[0103] This embodiment is explained in conjunction with the fifth embodiment. Figure 2 This is the equivalent circuit diagram of the adhesion micro-defect distribution of four sensitive gate resistor strain gauges. The four sensitive gate resistors are represented by R1, R2, R3, and R4 respectively, and at this time, the positive pole of the external power supply is connected to the sensitive gate access terminal Pad1, and the negative pole is connected to the substrate. According to the definition of adhesion micro-defects, it means that there is adhesion between the sensitive gate resistor and the substrate material, which in turn generates a contact resistance Rc, and the order of magnitude of the contact resistance Rc is much smaller than that of the sensitive gate resistors R1, R2, R3, and R4. Assuming that the strain gauge does not have an adhesion defect, that is, the contact resistance Rc between the sensitive gate and the substrate material is infinite, current cannot be injected at this time, it is in an open circuit state, and no additional heat radiation is generated.
[0104] In practical applications, the following situations may exist:
[0105] 1) When the adhesion micro-defect is close to the sensitive gate access terminal Pad1, the contact resistance Rc generated by the adhesion micro-defect will be shunted, resulting in the contact resistance Rc being connected in series with the four sensitive gate resistors R1, R2, R3, and R4, forming an equivalent structure of structure 1. The equivalent structure diagram is shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown in (b), the corresponding infrared characteristic image at this time is that the micro-defect and the four sensitive gates will have thermal responses, but the thermal responses of the four sensitive gates are caused by the shunt of the micro-defect, and the sensitive gate area is not a defect area.
[0106] 2) When the adhesion micro-defect occurs in the sensitive gate resistor R1, the adhesion micro-defect will significantly reduce the original resistance of the sensitive gate resistor R1, thereby causing the sensitive gate resistor R1 to shunt seriously, forming an equivalent structure of structure 2. The equivalent structure diagram is shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown in (c), the corresponding infrared characteristic image at this time shows that the sensitive gate resistor R1 and the micro-defect area have different thermal responses, thereby locating the position of the micro-defect.
[0107] 3) When the adhesion micro-defect occurs at the connection line between the sensitive gate resistor R1 and the sensitive gate resistor R2, the adhesion micro-defect will cause the shunt of the sensitive gate resistor R1 to increase, forming an equivalent structure of structure three. The equivalent structure diagram is shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown in (d), the corresponding infrared characteristic image at this time shows that the sensitive gate resistor R1 is seriously heated, while the other three sensitive gates are heated normally. At the same time, there is also a thermal response at the adhesion micro-defect, which can locate the position of the micro-defect.
[0108] 4) When the adhesion micro-defect occurs at the sensitive gate resistor R2, the adhesion micro-defect will significantly reduce the original resistance of the sensitive gate resistor 2, thereby causing the partial current shunting of the sensitive gate resistor R2 to be serious, forming an equivalent structure of structure 4. The equivalent structure diagram is shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown in (e), the corresponding infrared characteristic image at this time shows that there is a difference in thermal response in the sensitive gate resistor R2 area, especially at the adhesion micro-defect, thereby realizing the positioning of the adhesion defect.
[0109] 5) When the adhesion micro defect occurs at the connection line between the sensitive gate resistor R2 and the sensitive gate resistor R3, an equivalent structure of structure 5 is formed. The equivalent structure diagram is as follows: Figure 2 As shown in (f), if the adhesion micro-defect is close to the sensitive gate resistor R2, it will cause the sensitive gate resistors R1 and R2 to shunt and increase at the adhesion micro-defect. At this time, the corresponding infrared characteristic image is that the heat generated by the sensitive gate resistors R1 and R2 and the adhesion micro-defect is higher than that of the sensitive gate resistors R3 and R4; conversely, it will cause the sensitive gate resistors R3 and R4 to shunt and increase at the adhesion micro-defect. At this time, the corresponding infrared characteristic image is that the heat generated by the sensitive gate resistors R3 and R4 and the adhesion micro-defect is higher than that of the sensitive gate resistors R1 and R2, thereby locating the position of the micro-defect.
