[0027] Please see Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a non-contact component displacement testing circuit that uses test plates (composed of test plate 1 and test plate 2) to sense the displacement. The testing circuit includes: a reference source, a charging circuit, a sampling capacitor, an integrating circuit, a switching circuit, a discharging circuit, and a gain adjustment circuit.

[0028] The test circuit described in this embodiment uses two test plates to sense the displacement. The test circuit includes a reference source, a charging circuit, a sampling capacitor, an integrating circuit, a switching circuit, a discharging circuit, and a gain adjustment circuit. It uses two relatively moving metal objects as the sensing part of the test circuit. The test method of this test circuit ensures that the two relatively moving parts do not come into contact through the test sensor, does not apply external force to the test moving parts, does not need to consider the installation space or fixing method of the displacement test sensing part, and is not limited by whether the movement trajectory of the test parts is linear or multi-directional relative spatial movement. It can accurately test the linear displacement between the two parts. Furthermore, through coordinate determination and numerical calibration, it can separately test the displacement of the two parts on the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis.

[0029] Among them, pin 1 Vin of the reference source input is connected to the power supply VCC, pin 2 GND is connected to the power ground GND, and pin 3 Vout outputs the reference signal to provide a signal to the charging circuit, which is connected to channel X1 of pin 14 of U1 in the charging circuit.

[0030] In the charging circuit, pin 13 (common terminal X) of U1 is connected to test plate 1, and pin 3 (common terminal Y) of U1 is connected to test plate 2; pin 5 (channel Y1), pin 6 (control signal INH), and pin 9 (channel selection signal B) of U1 are connected to ground GND; channel selection signal A is connected to pin 7 (output terminal Q4) of U3 in the switching circuit; pin 12 (channel X0) and pin 1 (channel Y0) of U1 are connected to pin 3 (positive input terminal) and pin 2 (negative input terminal) of U5 in the integrating circuit; pin 12 (channel X0) of U1 is also connected to one end of integrating capacitor C2 and pin 14 (channel X1) of U2 in the discharging circuit; the other end of integrating capacitor C2 is connected to GND; VCC, GND, and VEE of U1 are connected to the power supply VCC, ground GND, and negative power supply VEE, respectively.

[0031] In the integrating circuit, the negative input pin 2 and output pin 6 of U5 are connected to form a follower. The output pin 6 is connected to one end of the filter resistor R3. The signal is filtered by R3 and C3. The output signal V3 is connected to the positive input pin 3 of U6 in the gain adjustment circuit. Pins 7 and 4 of U5 are connected to the power supply VCC and the negative power supply VEE, respectively.

[0032] In the discharge circuit, pin 13 (common terminal X) of U2 is connected to ground signal GND, pin 6 (control signal INH) and pin 9 (channel selection signal B) are connected to grounded GND, and channel selection signal A is connected to pin 7 (output terminal Q4) of U3 in the switching circuit; VCC, GND, and VEE of U2 are connected to the power supply VCC, ground GND, and negative power supply VEE, respectively.

[0033] In the switching circuit, pins 10, 9, and 11 of U3 are connected to one end of output resistor R1, charging capacitor C1, and input resistor R2, respectively. The other ends of R1, C1, and R2 are connected together to form an oscillation circuit. The reset pin RST of U3 is connected to GND. The output pin Q4 of U3 is connected to the channel selection signal A of U1 in the charging circuit and the channel selection signal A of U2 in the discharging circuit. The reset pin RST of U3 is connected to GND. VCC and GND of U3 are connected to the power supply VCC and ground GND, respectively.

[0034] The positive input terminal 3 of the gain adjustment circuit U6 is connected to the common terminal of the integrating circuit R3 and C3. The negative input terminal 2 and the output terminal 6 form a non-inverting amplifier circuit through the current limiting resistor R4, the feedback resistor R8, and the ground resistor R5. The voltage divider circuit is formed by the voltage divider resistor R6, the adjusting potentiometer W1, and the voltage divider resistor R7, and is connected to the negative input terminal 2 of the amplifier U6 through the input balancing resistor R9. The 7th and 4th terminals of U6 are connected to the power supply VCC and the negative power supply VEE, respectively.

[0035] like Figure 2 As shown, Q4 is the control waveform output by the switching circuit. t0~t1, t3~t4, and t6~t7 are the charging periods for the test plates; t1~t3, t4~t6, and t7~t9 are the sampling and holding periods for the sampling capacitor, where t1~t2, t4~t5, and t7~t8 are the sampling periods.

[0036] During the charging period t0 to t1, the channel selection signals B and A of the charging circuit are at levels 0 and 1, respectively. The common channels X and Y of U1 in the charging circuit are connected to the input channels X1 and Y1, respectively. Y is connected to signal ground, and X is connected to the reference source to charge the test plate. At time t01, the voltage V1 on the test plate reaches V11 and remains unchanged before t1. Simultaneously, during t0 to t1, the common channel X of U2 in the discharging circuit is connected to the input channel X1, and the charging capacitor C2 discharges to ground, completing the reset of signal V2 to zero, preparing for the next sampling. The dashed line represents the first state.

[0037] During the sampling and holding phase t1 to t3, the channel selection signals B and A of the charging circuit are at level 0 and 0, respectively. The common channels X and Y of U1 in the charging circuit are connected to the input channels X0 and Y0, respectively. Test plates 1 and 2 are connected to the positive and negative inputs of U5 in the integrating circuit, respectively. At the same time, the sampling capacitor C2 samples the signal on the plate.

[0038] The test plate capacitor and the sampling capacitor form a parallel capacitor, and the charge gradually balances out. At time t2, the charge reaches equilibrium, and the voltage signal on the test plate decreases from V11 to V12, while the signal on the sampling capacitor increases from 0 to V21. During the period t2 to t3, all signals are stable. The integrator circuit outputs signal V3 through the filter circuit, which stabilizes at V31. This stable voltage signal is proportional to the capacitance of the test plate, and the capacitance of the test plate is proportional to its relative position. Through data calibration and correction, the distance to the test plate can be calculated from the output signal V3 of the integrator circuit.

[0039] Similarly, after the next charging period t3~t4 and the sampling and holding period t4~t5, the voltage signal on the plates drops from V11 to V13, and the signal on the sampling capacitor rises from 0 to V22. During t5~t6, the integrator circuit outputs signal V3 through the filter circuit and stabilizes at V32; this stable voltage signal can also be used to calculate another distance between the test plates.

[0040] By using the two distance differences mentioned above, the relative displacement of the test plate, i.e. the relative displacement of the moving parts, can be calculated.

[0041] After the next charging period t6-t7 and the sampling and holding period t7-t9, the voltage signal on the plate decreases from V11 to V14, while the signal on the sampling capacitor increases from 0 to V23. During t8-t9, the integrator circuit outputs signal V3 through the filter circuit, which stabilizes at V33. This stable voltage signal represents a new distance of the test plate and can be used to calculate the relative displacement of the test plate.

[0042] Figure 2 In the diagram, t0~t1, t3~t4, and t6~t7 represent the different times it takes for the voltage to reach V11 during the charging period of the test plate, specifically t0~t01, t3~t34, and t6~t67 respectively. These durations are determined by the residual charge, i.e., the residual voltage, after the previous test of the test plate. Throughout the entire charging period, the charging parameters should be designed to ensure that the voltage on the test plate reaches V11. Simultaneously, this period must also ensure that the charge on the sampling capacitor is completely reset to zero through the discharge circuit.

[0043] The sampling times t1~t2, t4~t5, and t7~t8 are determined by the capacitance of the test plates, which is related to the relative position of the two test plates. The sampling and holding times t1~t3, t4~t6, and t7~t9 are designed to ensure that there is enough time to reach charge balance after the test plates and sampling capacitors are adjusted.

[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, in displacement testing, spatial coordinates of the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis are established. By calibrating the data from X1 to X2, Y1 to Y2, and Z1 to Z2 in the three directions, the displacement of the object in the three directions can be tested.

[0045] The booster circuit processes the signal V3 output from the integrator circuit and the signal on the voltage divider potentiometer W1 into a subtractor signal. The voltage output signal can be adjusted to different voltage ranges, such as 0.5V to 4.5V, 1V to 8V, etc., according to the requirements of the subsequent interface circuit.

[0046] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them.

Therefore, any omissions, modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the embodiments of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
