Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of aircraft assembly technology, specifically to the research and application of an automatic transfer technology for aircraft components in confined spaces. Background Technology

[0002] During aircraft assembly, components need to be transported to the aircraft compartment for installation. For open areas or lightweight components, manual handling is feasible. However, for heavier components located in confined spaces, manual handling is inefficient, requires a high level of operator skill and physical strength, and carries the risk of damage to components or the aircraft due to instability caused by manual handling. With the continuous upgrading and iteration of military and civilian aircraft, and the pursuit of lightweight design and improved space utilization, aircraft assembly space is becoming increasingly limited. Therefore, the automated transportation of components within confined aircraft spaces urgently needs to be addressed.

[0003] With the development of science and technology, the application of automated equipment in various mechanical industries is becoming increasingly widespread, and the degree of automation of mechanical equipment is also getting higher and higher. However, robotic arms are commonly used in the automotive industry and are not suitable for aircraft assembly processes. This is because in the automotive manufacturing field, robots or other manipulators must be equipped with gripper mechanisms or gripper tools to perform certain operations or manufacturing tasks. These grippers are similar to the fingers of a human hand. When the grippers work, the corresponding clamping process is equivalent to clamping the object to be clamped between at least two grippers. The grippers can move relative to each other. In order to perform this clamping process, a pushing or pulling force is usually required to bring the grippers closer or further apart. In current automotive manufacturing technology, because robotic arms are used for the assembly of large components such as car doors and roofs, the synchronization of the grippers is not a high requirement for grasping functions. However, aircraft system components are small in size, have high requirements for installation position accuracy, and are located in confined spaces. Therefore, the robotic arms commonly available on the market cannot meet the requirements for aircraft use. Specifically, the synchronization of the two grippers is poor, the grasping effect of the object is poor, and the grippers are prone to not extending properly or the grasped parts are misaligned.

[0004] Meanwhile, after aircraft components are transported to their installation locations in the cabin area, since they are typically fixed to the fuselage at four mounting points using a hole-shaft fit, the mounting holes on the component must be aligned with the mounting holes on the fuselage before the shaft can be used for installation. Currently, the only way to align the mounting holes is to manually move the component visually and manually after it has been manually transported to its approximate location using tools such as a flashlight. However, this method is extremely inefficient, unable to quickly align the four pairs of holes (eight in total), and manually moving the component causes friction between the component and the fuselage, damaging both surfaces and affecting product quality. Therefore, technological innovation is needed. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a research and application of an automatic transfer technology for aircraft components in confined spaces, combining a two-degree-of-freedom synchronous mechanical gripper with a synchronous gripper assembly featuring two grippers that exhibit good linkage with each gripper, and a position calibration method.

[0006] The technical solution of this invention:

[0007] The method for automatic transfer of aircraft parts in confined spaces specifically employs a position calibration method to achieve precise and automated position calibration between the mounting holes of the parts and the mounting holes of the fuselage, thereby enabling automatic transport in conjunction with a two-degree-of-freedom synchronous mechanical gripper.

[0008] The specific position calibration method is as follows: using laser emission and reception technology, laser emission and reception devices are placed in the assembly holes of the component itself and the assembly holes of the mounting bracket of the machine body. During the transportation of the component, a total of 8 laser emission and reception devices, or 4 pairs, are used to perform position calibration in real time. The two-degree-of-freedom synchronous mechanical gripper moves according to the calibration results and performs position alignment in the three dimensions of X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis until the 4 pairs of mounting holes are completely aligned, and then the work stops.

[0009] Furthermore, the two-degree-of-freedom synchronous mechanical gripper serves as the execution structure for the position calibration method, enabling precise and automated alignment of the component mounting holes with the machine body mounting holes, thereby achieving automatic transportation. The two-degree-of-freedom synchronous mechanical gripper includes a base 1, an X-axis moving module 2, a Y-axis moving module 3, and a gripper module 4. The X-axis moving module 2 is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the base 1, the Y-axis moving module 3 is movably mounted on the X-axis moving module 2 in a mutually perpendicular manner, and the gripper module 4 is mounted on the Y-axis moving module 3. Under the drive of the X-axis moving module 2 and the Y-axis moving module 3, a two-degree-of-freedom gripping motion is achieved.

[0010] Furthermore, the establishment and analysis process of the fixed-point position calibration algorithm model in the aforementioned position calibration method is as follows:

[0011] 1) Set the fixed point position model as

[0012] S G ={(x,y,z)}

[0013] Where x is the horizontal coordinate; y is the vertical coordinate; z = h(x,y) represents the height.

[0014] 2) The model of the fixed point position of the body support in the first pair of fixed points is as follows:

[0015] S G1 ={(x1,y1,z1)}

[0016] Where x1 is the horizontal coordinate; y1 is the vertical coordinate; z1 = h(x1, y1), representing the height.

[0017] 3) The model of the fixed point position of the component in the first pair of fixed points is as follows:

[0018] S′ G1 ={(x′1,y′1,z′1)}

[0019] Where x′1 is the horizontal coordinate; y′1 is the vertical coordinate; z′1 = h(x′1, y′1), which represents the height.

[0020] 4) The formula for calculating the positional deviation of the first pair of fixed points is:

[0021] F G1 =S′ G1 -S G1

[0022] To ensure precise alignment, the position deviation should be set to 0.

[0023] 5) The formula for calculating the overall positional deviation of all fixed points is as follows:

[0024] F G =F G1 +F G2 +F G3 +F G4

[0025] =|S′ G1 -S G1 |+|S′ G2 -S G2 |+|S′ G3 -S G3 |+|S′ G4 -S G4 |

[0026] To ensure accurate alignment, the position deviation is set to 0. Before the position deviation reaches 0, the system performs a loop judgment until the value is 0, at which point the comparison calculation stops.

[0027] Furthermore, the two-degree-of-freedom synchronous mechanical gripper is specifically as follows:

The Y-axis drive motor 11 and the limit block 13 are installed on the upper end of the Y-axis base plate 12. Two Y-axis slide rails 14 of the same specification are set on the left and right ends along the Y-axis direction. The Y-axis slider 15 is slidably connected to the Y-axis slide rail 14. The lead screw 17 is set between the two Y-axis slide rails 14. One end of the lead screw 17 is rotatably connected to the bearing seat 16, and the other end drives the other bearing seat 16 and is fixedly connected to the output end of the Y-axis drive motor 11 through a coupling. The middle part of the Y-axis slider 15 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 17 and can slide along the Y-axis slide rail 14 under the drive of the lead screw 17. One end of the connecting plate 18 is fixedly installed on the Y-axis slider 15, and the other end is connected to the gripper module 4.

[0031] The gripper module 4 includes a gripper drive motor 19, a base plate 20, a drive pulley A21, a drive pulley 22, a drive belt 23, a tension pulley 24, a reversing synchronous pulley 25, a drive gear 26, a tension pulley adjusting nut 27, a left gripper 28, a left gripper spring 29, a right gripper 30, and a right gripper spring 31.

The output shaft of the gripper drive motor 19 passes through the front side of the base plate 20 and is mounted on the drive pulley A21. The drive pulley 22 is rotatably mounted on the left front end of the base plate 20.

[0032] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0033] (1) This invention provides a new idea and design.

[0045] The specific implementation methods and steps of this invention are as follows:

[0046] (1) Installation of laser transmitting and receiving device

[0047] When in use, place the laser emission and receiving devices into the bolt holes at the fixed points, ensuring that the devices are flush with the contact surfaces of the bracket and the finished product, and prepare for automatic transportation.

[0048] (2) Laser alignment determines the position of the grasped component.

[0049] When using a two-degree-of-freedom synchronous mechanical gripper (hereinafter referred to as mechanical gripper) with a good linkage effect between two grippers, the base 1 is fixedly installed around the installation area. The position of the part to be gripped is determined by the laser emission and reception of the laser emission and reception device using the position calibration method.

[0050] (3) Autonomous movement of the mechanical gripper along the X-axis

[0051] After the position is determined, the mechanical gripper automatically controls the X-axis drive motor 6 to rotate, which drives the X-axis pulley 7 to rotate. The rotation of the X-axis pulley 7 drives the X-axis transmission belt 8 to move. The movement of the X-axis transmission belt 8 drives the X-axis slider 10, which is fixedly connected to the X-axis transmission belt 8, to move along the X-axis slide rail 9, which in turn drives the Y-axis moving module 3 to move, thereby driving the gripper module 4 to move along the X-axis direction.

[0052] (4) Autonomous movement of the mechanical gripper along the Y-axis

[0053] The mechanical gripper automatically controls the rotation of the Y-axis drive motor 11, which drives the lead screw 17 to rotate. Since the middle part of the Y-axis slider 15 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 17, the rotation of the lead screw 17 will drive the Y-axis slider 15 to move along the Y-axis slide rail 14, thereby driving the gripper module 4 to move along the Y-axis direction.

[0054] (5) Autonomous movement of the gripper

[0055] After the above steps, the gripper module 4 is driven by the X-axis moving module 2 and the Y-axis moving module 3 to achieve two degrees of freedom of movement. The gripper drive motor 19 is controlled to drive the drive pulley A21 to rotate clockwise. Under the transmission of the drive belt 23, the drive pulley 22 and the reversing synchronous pulley 25 are driven to rotate clockwise, thereby driving the drive gear 26, which meshes with the reversing gear of the reversing synchronous pulley 25, to rotate counterclockwise, thereby realizing the opening of the left gripper 28 and the right gripper 30.

[0056] (6) Automatic gripping component

[0057] When the mechanical gripper automatically reaches the position of the part to be gripped, the gripper drive motor 19 automatically controls the drive pulley A21 to rotate counterclockwise. Under the transmission of the drive belt 23, the drive pulley 22 and the reversing synchronous pulley 25 rotate counterclockwise. Through the reversing action of the reversing gear of the reversing synchronous pulley 25, the drive gear 26 meshing with the reversing gear of the reversing synchronous pulley 25 rotates counterclockwise, thereby driving the left gripper 28 and the right gripper 30 to close, thus realizing the gripping of the part.

[0058] (7) Grab synchronization guarantee

[0059] The left gripper 28 and right gripper 30 are respectively equipped with left gripper spring 29 and right gripper spring 31 on their gripping side surfaces. The gripper springs are made of elastic material, and their shape can be set according to the shape of the part to be gripped, which can improve the stability and safety of gripping. The tension wheel 24 is in contact with the drive belt 23 and can move up and down in the mounting hole. The tension wheel 24 is adjusted to a suitable position and locked with the tension wheel adjusting nut 27 to ensure that the drive belt 23 is in the optimal state, thereby ensuring the synchronous movement of multiple pulleys.

[0060] (8) Position calibration

[0061] During the movement of the robotic gripper, eight laser emission and receiving devices (four pairs) are positioned in real time for position calibration using laser emission and receiving technology. The robotic gripper moves synchronously based on the calibration results, aligning itself in the X, Y, and Z axes. (Press F...) G =F G1 +F G2 +F G3 +F G4 The calculation is performed, and to ensure accurate alignment, the position deviation is set to 0. Before the position deviation reaches 0, the system performs a loop judgment until the value is 0 and then stops the comparison calculation. At this point, the mechanical gripper stops working after the 4 pairs of mounting holes are completely aligned.
