Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] Three-dimensional scanning probe is a key component of precision measuring instrument, especially indispensable in three-coordinate measuring machine. It mainly uses the superposition of double mechanical elastic spring sheets to record signals by the movement of spring sheets to produce relative displacement of sensors and display the displacement separation in X, Y and Z directions, and can perform scanning measurement. Three-dimensional probe is provided with a square parallel spring sheet in X, Y and Z directions. Currently, three-dimensional scanning probe of series-parallel composite type is generally used in three-coordinate measuring machines at home and abroad. For example, the patent US6131300 applied by MIES GEORG of Germany unifies the movement of X and Y directions into a planar movement, and combines the movement of Z direction to form three-dimensional measurement, which has relatively simple structure, but has coupling error and square spring sheet movement error. The patent CN109373878 applied by Xi'an University of Technology uses circular spring sheets to measure through three groups of mutually perpendicular spring sheets constituting guiding mechanism, which avoids square spring sheet movement error and has compact mechanism, but Y and Z axes have un-restrained suspended state when moving.
