TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of liquid floated gyro assembling and adjusting, and particularly relates to a vacuum balance process method for liquid floated gyro. BACKGROUND
[0002] Static balance of the gyro float assembly is one of the key procedures in the assembly process of the liquid floated gyro, and the static drift error, position error and acceleration sensitivity coefficient of the gyro are directly dependent on the static balance precision of the float. Therefore, for many years, many gyro manufacturers have been exploring the balance method of the gyro float assembly.
[0003] The traditional static balance process method of the gyro float assembly is to support the gyro float assembly by using a knife-edge or bearing type balance support, to perform initial balance on the float in air, and then to perform fine balance in the working temperature liquid. This balance method has different balance precisions due to different design of the balance fixture, different friction of the knife-edge balance fixture, and different flexibility of the bearing type balance fixture. It can be seen that the traditional static balance process method of the gyro float assembly has the disadvantages of large friction, low sensitivity and poor balance precision, and can only be used for products with low static balance requirement or as initial balance; and the balance process excessively depends on the skill level of the assembly worker, and requires the assembly worker to have years of static balance experience, and the static balance precisions of the float assemblies balanced by different workers also have large differences.
[0004] From the traditional static balance method and detection method of the gyro float assembly, the current balance and detection method both belong to open loop working mode, i.e. no feedback loop mode.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to explore a closed loop working balance process method. SUMMARY
[0006] The present application aims to solve the problems of large friction, low sensitivity, poor balance precision and excessive dependence on the skill level of the assembly worker in the existing balance method, and provides a vacuum balance process method for liquid floated gyro in oil.
[0007] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution provided by the present application is as follows:
[0008] A vacuum balance process method for liquid floated gyro in oil, which is characterized by comprising the following steps:
[0009] 1) Initial balance
[0010] The static balance fixture is used to perform initial balance on the float assembly in air without power supply, so as to remove the larger unbalance;
[0011] 2) Static balance
[0012] 2.1) After the float assembly is assembled to the liquid-floated force feedback gyroscope, it is cleaned and installed on the oil balance fixture in the oil tank, and the input shaft of the liquid-floated force feedback gyroscope is vertically upward; clean floating liquid is injected into the oil tank, so that the liquid-floated force feedback gyroscope is immersed in the floating liquid;
[0013] 2.2) The oil tank is placed in a sealed tank, and the sealed tank is vacuumed to remove air bubbles in the floating liquid during the oil vacuum balancing process;
[0014] 2.3) Slowly release the vacuum (avoid shaking), so that the liquid-floated force feedback gyroscope is always immersed in the floating liquid, and the input shaft (IRA shaft) of the liquid-floated force feedback gyroscope is kept vertically upward, that is, the graduation line of the liquid-floated force feedback gyroscope is vertically upward, at this time the angle between the IRA shaft of the gyroscope and the vertical direction is 0°, and the floating liquid balance is started;
[0015] 2.4) The liquid-floated force feedback gyroscope is powered on, the zero voltage values of the input shaft at four different positions are measured, and the difference between the zero voltages at the four different positions is ensured to be not more than 3mV through adjustment.
[0016] The four different positions are positions where the input shaft has an angle of 0°, 90°, 180° and 270° with the vertical direction.
[0017] That is, after the initial balance is completed, the float assembly is installed in the shell and fixed to the oil balance fixture, so that it is completely immersed in the floating liquid, and the liquid-floated force feedback gyroscope float assembly is in a closed loop working state under power on, and the oil balance fixture performs fine balance on the float assembly. During fine balance, first measure the zero voltage of the IRA shaft of the liquid-floated force feedback gyroscope at four different positions with a digital multimeter DC scale, and increase or decrease the balance screw to make the difference between the zero voltages of the IRA shaft of the liquid-floated force feedback gyroscope at the four different positions tend to 0, so as to ensure the static balance of the float assembly.
[0018] Further, in step 2.1), the oil balance fixture is installed on the oil tank wall, which includes a rotating disc, a rotating shaft, a first bearing, a second bearing, a bearing sleeve, a bearing cover and a fastening assembly;

[0020] One end of the rotating shaft passes through the mounting hole and is installed in the bearing sleeve through the first bearing and the second bearing, and is perpendicular to the oil tank wall;
[0021] The rotating disc comprises an inner rotating disc and an outer rotating disc arranged concentrically; the inner rotating disc is provided with a through hole arranged concentrically; the 12 o'clock position of the disc surface of the outer rotating disc is 0°, the 3 o'clock position is 90°, the 6 o'clock position is 180°, and the 9 o'clock position is 270°; wherein the outer rotating disc is fixed on the tank wall, and the inner rotating disc is installed on the other end of the rotating shaft through the through hole and can rotate relative to the outer rotating disc under the cooperation of the rotating shaft.
[0022] The fastening assembly is arranged on the inner rotating disc, and an installation position coaxial with the rotating disc for fastening and installing the liquid buoyancy feedback gyroscope is formed on the inner rotating disc, and a 0° mark line is arranged on the end face of the installation position (the graduation line of the liquid buoyancy feedback gyroscope is vertically upward, that is, the graduation line of the gyroscope is aligned with the 0° mark line).
[0023] Further, in step 2.2), when vacuumizing, the vacuum degree is less than or equal to 1.33 pa, and after visual inspection without bubbles, the vacuumizing is maintained for at least 1 h.
[0024] Further, in step 2.3), the liquid level of the liquid is at least 10 mm higher than the liquid buoyancy feedback gyroscope.
[0025] Further, in step 2.4), the zero output voltage values of the gyroscope at four different positions around the IRA axis are measured at least twice by a digital multimeter DC file, and the difference between the zero voltage values at the four different positions is not greater than 3 mV. Those skilled in the art are clear about how to design a force feedback circuit according to the basic knowledge in the art.
[0026] Further, in step 2.4), the difference between the zero voltage values at the four different positions is ensured to be not greater than 3 mV by increasing or decreasing the balance screws on the float assembly balance ring or by reducing the lead ring on the balance weight assembly.
[0027] Further, in step 1), the static balance clamp is a bearing type static balance clamp.
[0028] Further, step 3) is further included: after balancing, the gyroscope is cleaned with filtered gasoline and dried at room temperature.

The oil vacuum balancing process of the liquid floating force feedback gyroscope improves the traditional float assembly static balancing process, reduces the high dependence of the float assembly static balancing on the skill level of the operator, adjusts the traditional visual detection method to the zero voltage data size of the gyroscope IRA shaft at four different positions to judge whether the float assembly static balancing meets the design requirements, and improves the static balancing accuracy of the float assembly.
[0033] 2. The balancing and debugging process for simulating the position error change state of the liquid floating gyroscope in the working state solves the problem of large position error change of the liquid floating gyroscope before and after oil filling.
[0034] 3.

Detailed Implementation
[0044] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0045] The principle of this invention:
[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, when the liquid buoyancy feedback gyroscope has an angular rate ω input around its input axis (IRA axis), the gyroscope's float assembly rotates around its output axis (ORA axis) and exhibits a rotation angle β (the appearance of rotation angle β is instantaneous, and the magnitude of β is related to the design parameters in the control loop (mainly referring to the design parameters of the torque converter in the gyroscope and the design parameters of the circuit board in the matching test equipment (force feedback circuit). The liquid buoyancy feedback gyroscope must work together with the matching force feedback circuit board and cannot work independently). The signal device will then generate a voltage U1 = K proportional to the rotation angle β. u β(K u The signal gradient, after being converted and amplified by the current amplification circuit of the control loop (the circuit in the matching test equipment), outputs a current I = K, which is proportional to the voltage U1. I U1(K I (For the amplifier gain), this current, after passing through the feedback loop (the circuit in the accompanying test equipment), is fed back to the torque converter of the liquid buoyancy feedback gyroscope. The torque converter then generates a torque M = K proportional to the current I. m I(K m (This is the torque scale factor), and the magnitude of this torque is equal to and opposite in direction to the gyro torque M = Hω (where H is the angular momentum of the liquid buoyancy feedback gyroscope), i.e., M = K. m If I = Hω, then I = Hω / K m By connecting a sampling resistor R in series with the torque converter coil. s (The sampling resistor in the accompanying test equipment; the output of the gyroscope is the DC voltage signal across the sampling resistor), from the sampling resistor R s The DC voltage signal U2, which is proportional to the input angular velocity ω, is obtained, i.e., U2 = R. s I = R s Hω / K m .
[0047] The final output of the liquid floated force feedback gyro to the system (i.e. the system with which the gyro is used, such as inertial navigation, attitude heading, flight control system, etc.) is voltage, and the size of the interference torque M d is directly represented and measured by the size of the gyro zero voltage. Since the output voltage U2 of the gyro is R s I, it can be known from Hω+M d =K m I that I=(Hω+M d ) / K m =(Hω+Hω d ) / K m ; in the formula, K m is the scale factor of the torque device, ω is the input angular rate of the gyro, and ω d is the drift angular rate of the gyro. When ω=0, it is the zero output voltage U0 of the gyro, i.e. U0=R s M d / K m =R s Hω d / K m .
[0048] From the working principle of the above liquid floated force feedback gyro, when the sampling resistance R s and the scale factor K m of the torque device are constant, the size of the zero output voltage U0 of the gyro represents the size of the interference torque M d , and the static unbalance of the gyro float assembly is in the form of the interference torque, so the static unbalance of the float assembly can be measured by the difference of the zero output voltage U 0i of the gyro IRA axis at four different positions (the angle between the IRA axis and the vertical direction is 0°, 90°, 180°, and 270°), i.e. the static unbalance of the float assembly is directly measured by the difference of the zero output voltage at different positions. It can be known from U0=R s M d / K m that ΔU0=R s ΔM d / K m . When the zero output voltage of the gyro IRA axis at four different positions is equal, i.e. ΔU0=0, the static unbalance of the float assembly is 0. According to this principle, the above gyro closed loop working balance method is used for the float assembly of the liquid floated force feedback gyro.
[0049] The present application does not carry out vacuumizing in the early stage of exploring new process, and the oil balance clamp is completely immersed in the clean liquid, and the gyroscope is clamped on the oil balance clamp. At this time, the liquid completely immerses the gyroscope. Then the gyroscope is normally powered, and the IRA axis is measured in four different position zero voltage to measure the float assembly static balance. But it is found in the implementation process that during the position turning process, bubbles are constantly coming out from the liquid, resulting in that the zero voltage collected by the gyroscope is different when the gyroscope is turned to the same position each time, and the float assembly static balance cannot be accurately carried out.
[0050] The research team of the present application analyzes that the bubbles in the liquid adhere to the float assembly, and the buoyancy of the bubbles acts on the float assembly, resulting in that the zero voltage error collected by the gyroscope is large, so the whole process is carried out in a vacuumizing way to eliminate the influence of the buoyancy of the bubbles on the zero error of the gyroscope.
