Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of surface ship electronic information system testing, and in particular relates to a testing method for integrated launch of soft and hard equipment. Background Art

[0002] Soft equipment is primarily used to interfere with and decoy incoming torpedoes. Due to the low accuracy requirements for landing points, the design requirements for projectile structure and flight characteristics are relatively low. Soft equipment deployed on surface ships is mostly small-caliber, often with a diameter of 172mm, and is launched using a canted launcher. The launch test of soft equipment primarily uses an oscilloscope to measure the ignition signal characteristics (amplitude, pulse width, period, etc.) sent by the launcher, and simulates messages to communicate with the soft equipment's communication module to perform a single-unit launch test of the soft equipment. Due to the significant differences between the simulation method and actual installation conditions, there is a high probability of problems in subsequent live-fire tests, and the state adjustment technology is complex and difficult.

[0003] The main function of hard equipment is to inflict explosive damage to incoming torpedoes. Due to the high precision required for the impact point, the overall design of the projectile body must meet high requirements for flight characteristics, charge space, and many other factors. Therefore, a larger projectile diameter of approximately 252mm is often used, and it is launched using a dedicated launcher. The launch test of hard equipment generally first uses an oscilloscope to measure the ignition signal characteristics sent by the launcher. Then, during the land flight test phase, the interaction between the hard equipment and the launcher, the matching of the timing logic, and the corresponding launch function and process are tested by firing sand bullets. When problems are discovered during the land flight test phase, the technical status adjustment requires rework, which involves a wide range of issues and is very difficult.

[0004] The method of testing ignition signal characteristics using an oscilloscope is relatively outdated, complex, and subject to significant human influence. On the one hand, differences between the launch test conditions of soft equipment and those of actual equipment can affect test results. For example, the compatibility between the communication module and the ignition module can affect test results. While two modules may test normally independently, this does not necessarily guarantee the correct logical relationship between them. On the other hand, by the time hard equipment undergoes flight testing, its development process is nearing completion, making state adjustments difficult and complex. This not only hinders technical risk control in equipment development, but also impacts the equipment's development progress.

[0005] At present, a unified design has been made for the launch of soft and hard equipment. Through optimization, the diameter of the hard equipment is reduced while ensuring the explosive power, so that it can be launched on the same frame with the soft equipment. That is, both soft and hard equipment are launched using an inclined frame launcher. The development progress of the two needs to match the development progress of the launcher while keeping them as synchronized as possible. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a test method based on actual installation characteristics and compatible with the launch of soft and hard equipment. During the prototype development stage, launch tests can be carried out quickly and effectively to fully resolve technical risks and support equipment development. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a test method for the integrated launch of soft and hard equipment, which supports the inspection of the launch process and function of soft and hard equipment, and supports the test of the matching of interactive information between soft and hard equipment and the launch device during the equipment launch process.

[0007] The technical solutions of the present invention are as follows:

[0008] A method for testing the integrated emission of soft and hard equipment, comprising:

[0009] (1) Determine the launch core module

[0010] The launch test is used to test the ignition of soft and hard equipment and the interaction and adaptation between soft and hard equipment and the launch device, including equipment type identification test, launch ignition signal reception test, launch communication test and launch ignition test; the core module for the launch of the corresponding equipment is determined according to the relevant content of the launch test, including the self-test module, type identification module, communication module, ignition signal receiving module and ignition device response module; among them, the self-test module is used to check the status of soft and hard equipment; the type identification module is used to identify the type of equipment; the communication module is used to realize the information interaction between soft and hard equipment and the launch device, including status self-test, equipment type identification and the sending of related instructions for setting the timing parameters of the fuze and information feedback; the ignition signal receiving module is used to receive the launch ignition signal, and the ignition device response module is used to control the ignition device to respond to ignition according to the received launch ignition signal;

The launcher control device exchanges information with the soft and hard equipment through the launcher to send status self-test, equipment type identification and fuze timing parameter setting instructions. The test component feedbacks the self-test results, equipment type and fuze timing parameter setting results.

[0017] When the communication content and timing between the transmitter and the equipment are normal, the transmitter outputs a transmission ignition signal; the ignition signal receiving module receives the transmission ignition signal, and the ignition device response module controls the ignition device to respond to ignition according to the received transmission ignition signal;

[0018] Observe the response status of the ignition device response module of the test assembly in the test bottom tube to check whether the ignition device has been ignited;

[0019] (4) Result evaluation

[0020] The information exchange content and timing between the launch device and the soft and hard equipment are consistent with the actual installation requirements, and the ignition device ignites normally, which means that the soft or hard equipment launch test meets the requirements; if the intermediate links cannot operate according to the design process, the problems will be identified and located, the mechanism will be analyzed, rectification and optimization will be carried out, and then the launch test will be carried out until the requirements are met.

[0021] Furthermore, the equipment type identification test is used to test the identification of the equipment type.

[0022] Furthermore, the transmission ignition signal reception test is used to test the reception of a transmission ignition pulse signal with a certain amplitude voltage and current.

[0023] Furthermore, the launch communication test is used to test the communication input and output between the launch device and the equipment loaded inside during the launch process, including status self-check, equipment type identification, and the sending of relevant instructions for setting the fuze timing parameters and information feedback to determine whether the launch conditions are met.

[0024] Furthermore, the transmission ignition test is used to test whether the ignition device ignites after receiving the transmission ignition pulse signal.

[0025] Furthermore, the self-test module, type identification module, communication module, ignition signal receiving module and ignition device response module are integrated into an integrated circuit board, and their related functions are realized by the integrated circuit board.

[0028] Furthermore, when the communication content and timing between the launch device and the equipment are normal, the launch device prompts that it is ready, and the corresponding launch button is selected on the launch device according to the type of soft or hard equipment to output an ignition signal.

[0033] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only intended to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. In addition, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0034] The present invention proposes a test method for the integrated launch of soft and hard equipment. By assembling and embedding the core modules for launching soft and hard equipment into a test bottom tube, the launch process inspection between the launch device and the soft and hard equipment is completed in the actual installation technical state, and the launch information interaction function between the launch device and the soft and hard equipment and the ignition response function of the soft and hard equipment during the launch process are inspected. The test work is advanced from the land flight test stage to the prototype trial production stage, thereby resolving the technical risks of equipment and device development in advance.

[0035] Previously, the soft and hard equipment had their own independent transmitters, with different interfaces and processes. Now, the transmitters of the hard and soft equipment have been unified and used as a common device. The transmitter function and output ignition signal characteristics have been tested individually and the status has been basically solidified. The status of the soft and hard equipment transmitter modules has been basically solidified, and prototype production has been completed. Figure 1 As shown, the specific steps of this method are as follows:

[0036] (1) Determine the launch core module

[0037] The launch test primarily examines hardware and software equipment, and the interaction and adaptation between the launch device and these equipment. This includes equipment type identification, launch ignition signal reception, launch communication, and launch ignition testing. The core modules for the corresponding equipment launch are determined based on the launch test content. These modules primarily include the self-test module, type identification module, communication module, ignition signal reception module, and ignition device response module.

[0038] (2) Test assembly of core modules

[0039] The functions of the self-test module, type identification module, communication module, ignition signal receiving module, and ignition device response module are implemented by integrated circuit boards, which are difficult to be assembled separately into the launcher for testing. Based on the diameter requirements of the live ammunition, a test bottom tube made of strong rigidity metal is designed and manufactured. The corresponding modules are assembled to form a test assembly, which is fixed into the test bottom tube. The connection interface is designed according to the external interface requirements of the live ammunition. The test bottom tube design is shown below. Figure 2 As shown, the diameter of the test bottom tube is consistent with that of the live ammunition, and the buckle belt is fixed on the test bottom tube. It is mainly used to fix the integrated circuit or functional module and can be adjusted appropriately as needed to ensure firmness.

[0040] (3) Test methods and result evaluation

[0041] The test method and process are as follows:

[0042] 1) Fix the test assembly onto the test bottom tube using a snap tape, install the test bottom tube into the launch tube, and connect the test assembly to the launch device using the reserved interface.

[0043] 2) The launch control device controls the launcher according to the actual launch process to prepare for launch. The launch control device exchanges information with the hardware and software equipment, including self-checks, status checks, equipment type identification, and timing parameter binding. When normal and launch conditions are met, the corresponding launch button is pressed.

[0044] 3) Observe the response status of the ignition device response module of the test assembly in the test bottom tube to check whether the ignition device has been ignited.

[0045] (4) Result evaluation

[0046] If the content and timing of information exchange between the launcher and the hardware and software components are consistent with actual installation requirements and the ignition device ignites normally, the hardware or software component launch test can be determined to have met the requirements. If intermediate links do not operate according to the designed process, the problem can be identified and located, the mechanism analyzed, and rectification and optimization can be carried out. The launch test can then be repeated until the requirements are met.

[0047] The present invention is further described below by taking a system integration debugging test as an example:

[0048] (1) Determine the launch core module

[0049] Soft equipment: self-test module, type identification module, communication module, ignition module (including ignition receiving and response module)

[0050] Hardware: type identification module, communication module, ignition module (including ignition receiving and response module).

[0051] (2) Core module test assembly

[0052] Make several test bottom tubes made of stainless steel (no less than 17: 1 each of soft and hard individually, and 5 soft and 10 hard in batches), assemble the launch core modules of the soft and hard equipment according to the actual installation requirements to form a test assembly, reserve the bomb rack connecting lines, and fix them in the buckle straps of different test bottom tubes respectively.

[0053] (3) Test methods and result evaluation

[0054] 1) Load the prepared test base tube into the launch tube of the launch device from the bottom end according to the live ammunition loading method. Press the launch tube stopper in the launch device to lock it. Connect the bomb rack connection line reserved in the test base tube to the launch tube connector corresponding to the launch device. Note the launch tube number.

[0055] 2) Turn on the launch device control equipment, perform self-test on the device, send self-test, ammunition type identification, fuze timing setting and other parameter setting commands to the soft or hard equipment, control the launch device and soft or hard equipment to set parameters, and exchange information such as status self-test, fuze timing setting, and ammunition type identification.

[0056] 3) The test component in the test bottom tube responds according to the instructions sent by the launch device, and feeds back information such as the tube number, bullet type code and self-test result report.

[0057] 4) When the communication content and timing between the launcher and the equipment are normal, the launcher prompts "Ready". At this time, you can select the corresponding launch button on the launcher according to the type of soft or hard equipment to output the ignition signal.

[0058] 5) After receiving the ignition signal, the soft and hard equipment will respond and the corresponding ignition device will ignite.

[0059] 6) Assemble 10 sets of hard equipment test components and 5 sets of soft equipment test components, equipped with 15 test base tubes; secure the 15 test components, including both hard and soft equipment, into each of the 15 test base tubes. Then, according to the actual installation requirements and the method in "1"), install the 15 test base tubes into the different launch tubes of the launcher. Perform the interaction according to the methods in "2") and "3"), and perform continuous launch according to the methods in "4") and "5") to complete the continuous launch test of the launcher and hard and soft equipment.

[0060] During the testing process, problem analysis and rectification are carried out based on the problems that occur.

[0061] For example, because the hardware equipment lacked the "timer setting" and "self-test result reporting" response functions, the launcher failed to respond to the launch command according to the normal process. After analysis and coordination, it was determined that since the launcher is a shared device and needs to be compatible with multiple types of other equipment, the process adjustment would have a large impact, while adding some response functions to the hardware equipment would be less difficult and labor-intensive. Therefore, it was ultimately agreed that the hardware equipment would add the "timer setting" and "self-test result reporting" response functions according to the functional process format requirements of the software equipment, and maintain the same timing as the software equipment.

[0062] Ultimately, the hardware was able to interact with the launcher according to the interaction content and timing requirements, and successfully ignited the ignition device. The test confirmed the normal independent launch functionality of the hardware and software, the normal combined launch functionality of the hardware and software, and the proper compatibility between the hardware and launcher.

[0063] Multiple groups of tests can be conducted as needed to increase the test sample size, further clarify the emission test differences caused by individual differences in modules, and support subsequent optimization design.

[0064] The above description is merely a typical theoretical implementation example of the present invention and does not limit the present invention in any form or application conditions. Persons skilled in the art may make slight modifications to the test bottom tube design, quantity changes, or split soft and hard equipment test methods using the above technical content. Equivalent changes or modifications are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.
