[0002] For the straightness detection of long cylindrical products, commonly used measurement methods include busbar measurement method, axis measurement method, etc., but these conventional methods all take points on the outer circle of the cylinder and use the axis of the outer cylindrical surface to evaluate the straightness of the cylinder. When the coaxiality between the outer circle and the inner hole of the cylinder is not ideal, the axis straightness of the outer circle cannot represent the straightness of the cylinder, and the straightness of the inner cavity needs to be detected and evaluated. The present invention provides a three-coordinate measurement device and method for the straightness of the inner cavity of long cylindrical parts, which can detect the straightness of the inner cavity of a cylinder whose length is greater than the three-coordinate measurement range, and provides a point element fitting and evaluation method to achieve accurate detection of the straightness of the inner cavity of long cylindrical workpieces.

[0007] Step 2: After the long cylindrical part is positioned with its outer circle, it is placed on the V-shaped support frame of the auxiliary device, and the auxiliary device is pushed to one end of the linear guide rail. The three-dimensional probe enters the inner cavity of the long cylindrical part, and collects several cross-sectional circles from the end surface inward in sequence, and constructs a two-dimensional straight line with the center of the circle;

[0014] In the above technical solution, the hole spacing of the guide rail through holes is equal to the hole spacing of the three-coordinate plate screw holes, which can improve the assembly precision of the auxiliary device and the three-coordinate measuring machine.

[0015] In the above technical solution, the probe system is a step probe system.

[0016] In the above technical solution, the measuring rod of the step probe system is a step rod, the end of the measuring rod is equipped with a hemispherical measuring head, and the diameter of the hemispherical measuring head is larger than the maximum diameter of the measuring rod.

[0023] 2. The method of the present invention is mainly used to measure the straightness of the inner cavity of a cylinder when the length is greater than the measuring range of a three-coordinate measuring machine. It provides an over-range geometric quantity detection method. The method makes full use of the coordinate measurement characteristics of the three-coordinate measuring machine, designs a slidable positioning mechanism, and uses the coordinate system of the three-coordinate to calibrate its positioning accuracy.

[0024] 3. The segmented point sampling method is used to obtain the straightness of the cylinder through two-dimensional and three-dimensional fitting. Three cross-sectional circles are measured at both ends, and a 2D straight line is constructed with the center of the cross-sectional circle, which is then fitted into a 3D straight line as the inner axis of the cylinder. This method can realize the precise detection of the geometric quantity and form and position tolerance of the over-range cylinder under the condition of limited range of precision measuring instruments.
