Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of friction testing, and in particular to a constant line contact friction and wear testing machine. Background Art
[0002] As we all know, when two objects are in contact with each other and there is relative motion between the contact surfaces, friction will occur between the two, which will lead to different degrees of friction and wear. This friction and wear phenomenon has both benefits and disadvantages. In industrial production, it can be used to improve the surface roughness of objects, but it may also greatly weaken the performance and service life of production machines. Therefore, if we can correctly understand the friction and wear mechanism between objects in contact with each other, we can use it as a basis to guide social production practice, reduce unnecessary resource loss problems, and improve equipment efficiency. At the same time, it can also provide an important reference for the research of tribology and related fields.
[0003] At present, the scientific community has not yet formed a complete theoretical system for the friction and wear phenomenon between solids, and the research on its deep mechanism is not yet mature. Therefore, it is difficult to determine the various properties of the friction pair through theoretical analysis. However, in the industrial production process, in order to correctly design the matching relationship between friction parts, it is necessary to correctly and effectively evaluate the friction characteristics of the friction pair. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain the friction coefficient, wear characteristics, etc. between the corresponding materials by designing a suitable friction and wear machine.
[0004] In the prior art, the friction and wear testing machine used for line contact friction and wear testing has the problem that the line contact friction pairs cannot accurately maintain balance and stable line contact, because the vibration is inevitably generated during the rotation of the main shaft and the friction sensor measurement process will destroy the contact state between the friction pairs. This problem may cause uneven load loading and inaccurate results. In addition, some studies need to consider the friction characteristics of the friction pairs under stable lubrication conditions, but most friction and wear machines often cannot provide a continuous and stable lubrication environment. Summary of the invention
[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a constant line contact friction and wear testing machine, which can ensure the constant line contact friction of the friction pair by releasing the degree of freedom, and can ensure a continuous and stable lubrication environment, thereby improving the accuracy of the test results.

[0050] Beneficial effects:
[0051] (1) The constant line contact friction and wear testing machine of the present invention supports a main shaft and a driving transmission mechanism for driving the main shaft to rotate on a base. The line contact friction pair includes a friction ring installed on the end of the main shaft and a friction plate installed in a lubricating oil groove. The friction ring is driven to rotate by the main shaft so that the friction ring and the friction plate are in line contact friction. The loading mechanism is used to adjust the positive pressure between the friction plate and the friction ring, and friction tests under different pressure conditions are achieved through the loading mechanism. The lubricating oil groove can ensure a continuous and stable lubrication environment for the line contact friction pair, and the friction plate can always maintain a constant line contact friction state with the friction ring through the swing of the lubricating oil groove around the axis center line and the longitudinal axis of the main shaft that intersect vertically in a horizontal plane, and the lubricating oil groove can also be used to adjust the positive pressure between the friction plate and the friction ring. The friction ring and the friction plate can always have good lubrication conditions; the detection mechanism is used to detect the positive pressure and friction force between the friction plate and the friction ring; therefore, when the above-mentioned constant line contact friction and wear testing machine is conducting a friction and wear test, the constant line contact of the line contact friction pair can be ensured by releasing the degree of freedom, thereby avoiding the defect that the existing friction ring and the friction plate cannot reach the stable line contact condition due to the formation of point contact; when the loading mechanism has a swinging degree of freedom, the loading force of the friction plate and the reaction force of the friction ring will form a restoring torque, so that the loading mechanism swings in the direction of reducing the angle, and the friction plate will get closer to the friction ring until the friction pair reaches a stable line contact, thereby improving the accuracy of the friction and wear test.
[0052] (2) In the constant line contact friction and wear testing machine of the present invention, the shaft sleeve of the driving transmission mechanism is fixedly installed on the base through the support plate, and the main shaft is installed in the shaft sleeve through the bearing. The rotational installation of the main shaft is realized by the shaft sleeve and the support plate. Since the accessory frame is a hollow block structure, it can be swingably installed on one end of the shaft sleeve close to the friction ring to support the loading mechanism. By swinging the accessory frame installed on the shaft sleeve, the loading mechanism can have the freedom of swinging around the axis of the main shaft, so that the loading mechanism can swing with the friction plate, thereby avoiding the deformation of the sensitive element of the friction sensor causing the friction plate to swing around the axis of the main shaft, causing the loading force to be not perpendicular to the contact surface, thereby overcoming the principle defect that the friction sensor will affect the contact state of the friction pair during the friction measurement process, ensuring that the positive pressure is always perpendicular to the contact surface during the friction measurement process, and improving the accuracy and repeatability of the test results.
[0053] (3) The constant line contact friction and wear testing machine of the present invention has a loading mechanism composed of two adjustable outer rails, a loading outer frame, a loading base plate, a loading platform, a guide force component frame, an upper slide rail, a fulcrum frame, a lever, a guide seat, a weight, a guide rope and a loading rope, which ensures that the loading mechanism can swing synchronously with the accessory frame around the axis of the main shaft, and can also swing synchronously with the loading outer frame around the longitudinal axis during the loading process, so that the line contact friction pair moves synchronously with the loading mechanism, so that the force applied by the loading mechanism just passes through the friction contact position between the friction ring and the friction plate, further improving the accuracy of the test results.
[0054] (4) Since the detection mechanism includes a friction sensor and a positive pressure sensor, the friction sensor is fixedly installed between the sensor support and the accessory frame, and the positive pressure sensor is fixedly installed on the top surface of the loading base plate, the friction force between the friction ring and the friction plate can be detected by the friction sensor, and at the same time, the positive pressure applied by the loading mechanism can be detected by the positive pressure sensor.
[0055] (5) In the constant line contact friction and wear testing machine of the present invention, since the friction plate is an annular plate provided with a central through hole and is installed in the lubricating oil tank by means of a second locking bolt passing through the central through hole, after a single friction and wear test is completed, the friction plate can be rotated around the axis of its central through hole and then fixed, and the surface portion of the friction plate that does not participate in the friction is used as the friction pair contact surface of the next test, so that the friction plate can be repeatedly used by rotation, which can greatly improve the utilization rate of the test materials and reduce unnecessary waste.
[0056] (6) Since a rubber gasket is sandwiched between the drive motor and the base, the vibration of the drive motor can be isolated by the rubber gasket, thereby weakening the test error caused by the vibration of the drive motor itself when it is working. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0068] The control mechanism is connected with the drive transmission mechanism and the detection mechanism signal, and is used to obtain the detection signal of the detection mechanism.
[0069] The above-mentioned constant line contact friction and wear testing machine supports a main shaft 6 and a driving transmission mechanism for driving the main shaft 6 to rotate on the base 1. The line contact friction pair includes a friction ring 19 installed at the end of the main shaft 6 and a friction plate 25 installed in the lubricating oil groove 18. The friction ring 19 is driven to rotate by the main shaft 6, so that the friction ring 19 and the friction plate 25 are in line contact friction; the loading mechanism is used to adjust the positive pressure between the friction plate 25 and the friction ring 19.

The middle part of the guide rope 17 is controlled to extend in the horizontal direction through the two fixed pulleys; the central axes of the two fixed pulleys installed inside the guide seat 15 are arranged in parallel and can be arranged in parallel with the longitudinal axis, so that the guide rope 17 bypasses the part between the two fixed pulleys in the guide seat 15 and is parallel to the axis line of the main shaft 6; the loading force generated by the gravity of the weight 16 is transmitted to the lever 14 through the guide rope 17.
[0090] The loading mechanism of the above-mentioned constant line contact friction and wear testing machine is composed of two adjustable outer rails 8, a loading outer frame 9, a loading base plate 10, a loading platform 11, a guide force component frame 12, an upper slide rail 26, a fulcrum frame 13, a lever 14, a guide seat 15, a weight 16, a guide rope 17 and a loading rope 27, which ensures that the loading mechanism can swing synchronously with the accessory frame 7 around the axis of the main shaft 6, and can also swing synchronously with the loading outer frame 9 around the longitudinal axis during the loading process, so that the line contact friction pair moves synchronously with the loading mechanism, so that the force applied by the loading mechanism just passes through the friction contact position between the friction ring 19 and the friction plate 25, further improving the accuracy of the test results.
[0091] Specifically, the detection mechanism also includes a sensor support 20 and a friction sensor 21; the sensor support 20 is fixedly mounted on the base 1; the sensor support 20 can be an L-shaped structure, with a small hole for mounting the friction sensor 21 on the top; the friction sensor 21 is fixedly mounted on the top of the sensor support 20 and connected to the accessory frame 7 to detect the friction transmitted by the accessory frame 7; the friction sensor 21 can be connected to the accessory frame 7 through a T-shaped plate, and when the accessory frame 7 is subjected to the friction transmitted by the friction plate 25, the friction sensor 21 Due to the tensile force, a corresponding deformation signal will be generated; the positive pressure sensor 22 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the loading base plate 10, and is used to detect the positive pressure applied by the loading base plate 10 to the loading platform 11; when the loading base plate 10 is subjected to the loading force, the loading base plate 10 will slide upward under the action of the loading force, so that the positive pressure sensor 22 contacts the loading platform 11; when the loading process is completed, the positive pressure sensor 22 is squeezed and deformed accordingly by the loading force, and a deformation signal is generated; the control mechanism is connected to the friction force sensor 21 and the positive pressure sensor 22 signal.
[0092] Since the detection mechanism includes a friction sensor 21 and a positive pressure sensor 22, the friction sensor 21 is fixedly installed between the sensor support 20 and the accessory frame 7, and the positive pressure sensor 22 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the loading base plate 10. Therefore, the friction force between the friction ring 19 and the friction plate 25 can be detected by the friction sensor 21, and at the same time, the positive pressure applied by the loading mechanism can be detected by the positive pressure sensor 22.
[0093] On the basis of the above various embodiments, the above constant line contact friction and wear testing machine further includes a display device connected to the control mechanism signal and a speed sensor installed on the drive motor 4; the display device and the control mechanism can be an integral structure; according to the signal obtained by the control mechanism, the display device is used to display the working state information of the drive motor 4, the values collected by the friction force sensor 21 and the positive pressure sensor 22. The speed sensor is connected to the control mechanism signal and is used to detect the speed of the drive motor 4.
[0094] The display device can be used to conveniently display various working parameters and collected parameters of the testing machine; the speed sensor can be used to conveniently detect the speed of the driving motor 4, and the speed sensor and the control mechanism can monitor and adjust the relative speed between the friction plate 25 and the friction ring 19.
[0095] When the above-mentioned constant line contact friction and wear tester is used for testing, the loading force is transmitted to the loading base plate 10 through the loading rope 27. The loading base plate 10 moves upward along the sliding guide rail due to the restriction of the sliding guide rail of the loading outer frame 9. The positive pressure sensor 22 moves with the loading base plate 10, thereby pushing the loading platform 11 to move upward. The lubricating oil groove 18 is fixed on the loading platform 11 and moves upward with the loading platform 11. Since the friction plate 25 is located at the inner bottom of the lubricating oil groove 18, the friction plate 25 moves upward with the lubricating oil groove 18. After the end face of the friction plate 25 is tangent to the outer peripheral surface of the friction ring 19 and is completely fitted, the loading base plate 10 can no longer move upward, the friction pair is subjected to the corresponding loading force, the friction pair is in a line contact state, and the loading process is completed. When the outer surface of the friction ring 19 and the end surface of the friction plate 25 are not tangent due to external factors, the friction pair is out of line contact, and a certain angle appears on the corresponding contact surface, and a rotation torque is generated between the two planes; since the friction ring 19 is a fixed structure, the rotation torque finally acts on the loading mechanism, causing the loading outer frame to swing around its rotation axis in the direction of reducing the angle of the contact surface, and the end surface of the friction plate 25 swings accordingly with the loading outer frame; when the outer surface of the friction ring 19 and the end surface of the friction plate 25 are tangent again, the rotation torque acting between the two planes disappears, and the friction pair resumes the line contact state. When the drive motor 4 is running, the friction ring 19 rotates with the main shaft 6, and the outer surface of the friction ring 19 and the end surface of the friction plate 25 will always be tangent under the action of the above-mentioned restoring torque, so that the friction ring 19 and the friction plate 25 are always in a stable line contact state.
[0096] The above-mentioned constant line contact friction and wear tester can realize constant line contact friction between the friction ring 19 and the friction plate 25. On this basis, the rotation speed of the friction ring 19 is controlled by adjusting the rotation speed of the driving motor 4, and the magnitude of the positive pressure is controlled by controlling the mass of the weight 16 of the loading mechanism, thereby realizing the detection of the friction and wear conditions of the line contact friction pair under different rotation speeds and different positive pressure conditions, and improving the accuracy of the test results.
[0097] In summary, the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
