Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of precision detection of numerically controlled machine tools, and in particular to an optical path adjustment device for precision detection of numerically controlled machine tools and a detection method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the automotive and aerospace manufacturing industries, the demand for machining precision of parts is becoming increasingly stringent, and ensuring the geometric accuracy of CNC machine tools has become a hot topic in manufacturing research. Currently, ensuring geometric accuracy of machine tools is primarily accomplished through regular error detection and compensation to meet the machining precision requirements of parts.

[0003] The primary purpose of machine tool error detection and compensation is to improve the geometric accuracy of machine tools. Appropriate use of error detection tools and error identification methods can effectively improve the geometric accuracy of the translational axes of multi-axis CNC machine tools. Currently, laser interferometers are widely used as error detection tools. The entire detection system consists of a laser interferometer, a reflector, an interferometer, a mounting handle, a magnetic base, and a laser interferometer tripod. Existing error identification methods based on laser reflectometers, such as the 9-line method, the 12-line method, the 14-line method, and the 15-line method, exist domestically and internationally. While the 9-line method only requires single-axis error detection, all other detection methods require the detection of two- or three-axis linkage trajectory positioning errors. Whether detecting single-axis or multi-axis positioning errors, the laser interferometer's position and posture must be properly adjusted, coordinated with the interferometer and the reflector mounted on the spindle head to achieve machine tool error detection. Generally, laser interferometers can easily detect arbitrary lines within a horizontal plane. However, because the laser interferometer is connected to the tripod via a pan-tilt adjustment and threaded connections, the pan-tilt adjustment cannot precisely adjust the laser interferometer's offset angle. Whether detecting a straight line in the horizontal plane, such as a linear trajectory linked by the X and Y axes, or a straight line in the vertical plane, such as a linear trajectory linked by the XZ, YZ, or XYZ axes, the position and posture of the laser interferometer must be adjusted manually, resulting in low adjustment efficiency and accuracy, which is not conducive to industrial automation.

[0043] Example 1:

[0044] The main structure of this embodiment is as follows: Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, it includes a lifting platform 1 that can be lifted up and down, and a translation platform 2 that can be lifted and lowered with the lifting platform 1 is fixedly installed in the lifting platform 1. The lower part of the translation platform 2 is fixedly connected to a rotating platform 3, and the rotating platform 3 can perform left and right reciprocating translation movement under the action of the translation platform 2; the lower part of the rotating platform 3 is fixedly connected to the angular platform 5 through a connecting plate 4, and the upper part of one side of the connecting plate 4 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the rotating platform 3, and the lower part of the other side of the connecting plate 4 is fixedly connected to the angular platform 5; the connecting plate 4 can rotate under the action of the rotating platform 3 and drive the angular platform 5 The table 5 rotates on the lower side of the rotating table 3. A U-shaped clamping plate 6 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the angular table 5. A laser interferometer 7 is fixedly installed in the U-shaped groove on one side of the U-shaped clamping plate 6. The U-shaped clamping plate 6 can swing under the action of the angular table 5, and drive the laser interferometer 7 fixed in the U-shaped groove to swing; a mounting frame 8 is fixedly installed at the lower part of the U-shaped groove of the U-shaped clamping plate 6, and an interferometer group 9 matching the position of the laser interferometer 7 is installed on the mounting frame 8. The laser emitted by the laser interferometer 7 passes through the interferometer group 9.

[0045] The specific process of using the optical path adjustment device to detect the accuracy of CNC machine tools is as follows:

[0046] S1: Assemble the optical path adjustment device for precision detection of CNC machine tools;

[0047] S2: Place the lifting platform in the optical path adjustment device on the machine bed 10 of the CNC machine tool to be tested, install a reflector 17 on the head of the CNC machine tool to keep the laser interferometer 7 and the interferometer lens group 9 in the optical path adjustment device level, and then adjust the reflector 17 installed on the head of the CNC machine tool to be tested so that the reflector 17 can reflect the laser emitted by the laser interferometer 7 and the laser reflected by the reflector 17 can overlap with the laser reflected by the interferometer lens group 8; the laser interferometer 7 emits a laser beam, which is divided into three optical paths through the interferometer lens group 9 and the reflector 17, as shown in FIG. Figure 13As shown, optical path one is abcdef, optical path two is abghij, and optical path three is abghif; the relative geometric relationship between optical paths two and three is fixed, so photoelectric detectors can be set at three locations along the optical path to feed back position signals to the optical path adjustment device. The position of the laser interferometer 7 is adjusted by the lifting platform 1, translation platform 2, rotation platform 3, and angular platform 5 in the optical path adjustment device to ensure the initial position. The laser emitted by the laser interferometer can enter the incident port through the reflector 17, thereby ensuring the accuracy of subsequent detection.

[0048] S3: The CNC machine tool's head operates according to the instructions. The lifting platform 1, translation platform 2, rotation platform 3, and angular positioning platform 5 in the optical path adjustment device ensure that the laser interferometer 7 and the interferometer lens assembly 9 maintain the same operating trajectory as the head. If the laser interferometer's incident port f cannot receive the incident light or the position of the incident light changes, the CNC machine tool's operating accuracy needs to be adjusted. If the laser reflected by the reflector consistently coincides with the laser reflected by the interferometer lens assembly, the CNC machine tool's operating accuracy is high. If the laser reflected by the reflector deviates from the laser reflected by the interferometer lens assembly, the CNC machine tool's operating accuracy needs to be adjusted.

[0049] Example 2:

[0050] This embodiment takes the gantry CA swing head five-axis CNC machine tool as an example to perform accuracy test on it. The structure of the gantry CA swing head five-axis CNC machine tool is as follows: Figure 9 As shown, the machine tool includes a bed 10, an X-axis motion unit 11, a Y-axis motion unit 12, a Z-axis motion unit 13, a C-axis swing unit 14, and an A-axis swing unit 15. The head of the gantry CA swing head five-axis CNC machine tool is the A-axis swing unit 15. The A-axis swing unit 15 is mounted with a reflector 17 through an auxiliary fixture 16.

[0051] Carry out precision inspection on X axis of gantry CA swing head five-axis CNC machine tool, such as Figure 10 As shown, the specific process is as follows: the laser interferometer 7 and the interferometer lens group 9 are rotated around the Z axis by controlling the rotating table 2; the translation along the Y axis is achieved by the translation table 2; the rotation and translation movements ensure that the laser emitted by the laser interferometer 7 and the reflected laser are in the same straight line, so that the single-axis positioning accuracy detection of the machine tool X axis can be completed.

[0052] Carry out precision inspection on X axis of gantry CA swing head five-axis CNC machine tool, such as Figure 11 As shown, the specific process is as follows: when detecting the Y-axis positioning accuracy, the optical path adjustment device needs to be placed in a direction parallel to the Y-axis to ensure that the laser emitted by the laser interferometer 7 and the reflected laser are in the same straight line so that the Y-axis positioning accuracy can be detected.

[0053] Carry out precision inspection on X axis of gantry CA swing head five-axis CNC machine tool, such as Figure 12 As shown, the specific process is as follows: when detecting the Z-axis positioning accuracy, the quick adjustment device needs to be placed below the Z-axis, and the interferometer group 9 is placed on the mounting bracket 8 to ensure that the reflector 17 returns to the point where the light passes through the interferometer and is parallel to the emitted laser, and then the Z-axis positioning accuracy can be detected.

[0054] When testing the XY linkage, YZ linkage, XZ axis linkage, and XYZ linkage trajectory positioning accuracy of a gantry CA swing head five-axis CNC machine tool, the process is basically the same as the single-axis accuracy testing process. When testing the XY linkage, XZ linkage, and XYZ linkage trajectory positioning accuracy, the optical path adjustment device can be placed on the machine tool workbench, and the reflector 17 installed on the laser interferometer auxiliary fixture is adjusted to the angle required for testing (XY, XZ, or XYZ diagonal). Then, by controlling the angle table 5 to achieve the pitch movement of the laser interferometer 7 and its interferometer lens group 9 (within a range of ±45°), ensuring that the transmitted laser and the reflected laser are in the same straight line, the XY linkage, XZ linkage, and XYZ linkage trajectory positioning accuracy testing can be performed. Similarly, when testing the YZ linkage trajectory positioning accuracy, the optical path adjustment device can be placed on the machine tool workbench, and the reflector 17 installed on the laser interferometer auxiliary fixture 16 is adjusted to the angle required for testing (YZ diagonal), ensuring that the transmitted laser and the reflected laser are in the same straight line, and the YZ linkage trajectory positioning accuracy testing can be performed.
