TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of diesel engine quality detection, and particularly relates to a perpendicularity detection method for cylinder holes and main shaft holes of a marine diesel engine. BACKGROUND

[0002] The diesel engine body is used for bearing and connecting diesel engine parts such as a crankshaft, a cylinder cover, a cylinder sleeve, a camshaft and the like, has a large number of machining procedures, a large number of hole systems, and high detection requirements. As the backbone and foundation of the diesel engine, the quality of the diesel engine body is a basic guarantee for reliable operation of the diesel engine. Since the marine diesel engine body has a large size, complex hole systems and high precision requirements, the most commonly used method for accurate measurement of the form and position tolerances between the hole systems of the body is three-coordinate measurement. When the three-coordinate measurement is used for the hole systems of the diesel engine body with a large space size, the measurement error is increased, the three-coordinate measurement has high requirements, and the large body workpiece is inconvenient to move, thereby causing low detection efficiency and high work intensity. Therefore, it is necessary to make improvements. SUMMARY

[0007] Step 2): The perpendicularity detection tool is integrally fixed and installed in the measured cylinder hole, the perpendicularity detection tool support surface is tightly attached to the inner wall surface of the cylinder hole, the perpendicularity detection tool center line is overlapped with the actual center line of the cylinder hole, and the reference ring at the lower part of the perpendicularity detection tool is adjusted to be coaxial with the main shaft hole;

[0008] Step 3): The distance between the upper plane of the cylinder hole and the center line of the main shaft hole is L; the laser receiver is placed in front of the reference ring of the verticality detection tool to measure the height value h1 in the vertical direction; the laser receiver is continuously moved to the rear end of the reference ring of the verticality detection tool to measure the height value h2 in the vertical direction, the height difference is Δh, that is, Δh = |h1-h2|, the moving distance of the laser receiver is a; the verticality deviation angle between the actual cylinder hole center line and the main shaft hole center line is α, and the vertical deviation between the actual cylinder hole top center and the ideal cylinder hole top center is ΔH, then through the similar triangle principle, the following can be obtained:

[0009]

[0010] Further, the vertical deviation ΔH between the actual cylinder hole top center and the ideal cylinder hole top center can be calculated as:

[0011]

[0012] The verticality deviation angle α between the actual cylinder hole center line and the main shaft hole center line can be obtained through the trigonometric formula.

[0013] In the above step 1), the laser source of the laser collimator is fixed at one end of the main shaft hole of the diesel engine body, and the laser collimator aiming target is placed in the front and rear holes, and the light source is adjusted so that the light source received by the receiving target is parallel to the main shaft hole axis, that is, an ideal main shaft hole center line C-C' is found.

[0015] Further, the up-down adjustable connection structure between the reference ring and the connecting rod includes a quick locking device, the tube sleeve at the upper end of the reference ring is locked through the quick locking device after being adjusted to the position at the lower end of the connecting rod, and the quick locking device can be a positioning pin or an elastic sleeve.

[0016] Further, the lower support and the upper support are both three-leaf structures with the same radius and circumferentially distributed, the outer edge of the three-leaf structure is a circular arc surface for abutting the inner surface of the cylinder hole, and the lower support and the upper support are positioned and fixed through the upper and lower support positioning pins after being sleeved on the connecting rod and being adjusted to the position.
