Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of contact measurement technology, and more specifically to a method for measuring the upper and lower end faces of a rotating part based on a combination of geometric quantities and roundness. Background Technology
[0002] Existing contact measurement technologies for rotating parts fall into two categories: one is the geometric measurement method, the most representative of which is the coordinate measuring machine (CMM). This method acquires coordinate points in the X, Y, and Z dimensions to fit the shape of the workpiece and obtain its geometric information. The other is the roundness measurement method, the most representative of which is the roundness meter. This method acquires angle values and measurements on the surface of the rotating body and evaluates the cross-sectional data of the workpiece in polar coordinates.
[0003] Both geometric measurement methods (such as those using coordinate measuring machines, CMMs) and roundness measurement methods have their limitations when measuring rotating parts. While CMMs can meet the requirements for traditional part dimensional measurements, they are ineffective for measuring roundness-related shape parameters of multiple rotating cross-sections, such as roundness, runout, maximum runout, the angle corresponding to the maximum runout, minimum runout, and the angle corresponding to the minimum runout. The difficulty lies in the fact that CMMs can hardly collect the runout value of a complete circular cross-section. Even if they can, due to the working characteristics of CMMs, a reference circle needs to be defined first, and then several points need to be selected on the circle for measurement. If 360 or more points are selected, the measurement time will be very long. Therefore, traditional CMMs are not suitable for measuring accurate shape parameters related to the roundness of circular cross-sections of rotating parts in terms of accuracy and efficiency, and are therefore unsuitable for measuring engine blade tip clearance. On the other hand, roundness testers can collect data from a complete cross section, so they can accurately calculate the form and position errors of rotating parts, such as roundness, runout, maximum runout, the angle corresponding to the maximum runout, minimum runout, and the angle corresponding to the minimum runout. However, roundness testers do not have calibrable geometric data, so they cannot measure and calculate the geometric parameters of rotating parts, and therefore are not suitable for measuring the gap between engine rotor and stator blades.
[0004] Therefore, the inventors have provided a method for measuring the upper and lower end faces of a rotating part based on a combination of geometric quantities and roundness. Summary of the Invention
[0005] (1) Technical problems to be solved
[0006] This invention provides a method for measuring the upper and lower end faces of a rotating part based on a combination of geometric quantities and roundness, which solves the technical problem that traditional contact measurement of rotating parts cannot simultaneously perform accurate measurement of form and position errors and geometric parameters.
[0007] (2) Technical solution
[0008] This invention provides a method for measuring the upper and lower end faces of a rotating part based on a combination of geometric quantities and roundness, comprising the following steps:
[0009] Fix the probe's position and place it on the upper surface of the standard ring. Record the first value of the height sensor and the second value of the probe's inductance meter.
[0010] Maintaining the probe's position, place the probe on the lower end face of the standard ring, and record the third value of the height sensor and the fourth value of the probe inductance meter.
[0011] The end face error of the standard ring is calculated based on the height difference between the upper and lower end faces of the standard ring, the first value, the second value, the third value, and the fourth value.
[0012] Maintaining the probe's position, place the probe on the upper surface of the rotating part, and record the fifth value of the height sensor and the sixth value of the probe inductance meter.
[0013] Maintain the probe's position and place it on the lower end face of the rotating part. Record the seventh value of the height sensor and the eighth value of the probe inductance meter.
[0014] The distance between the upper and lower end faces of the rotating part is calculated based on the end face error, the fifth value, the sixth value, the seventh value, and the eighth value.
[0015] Furthermore, the end face error of the standard ring is positively correlated with the first value, the second value, and the fourth value, and the end face error of the standard ring is negatively correlated with the third value.
[0016] Furthermore, the formula for calculating the end face error of the standard ring is as follows:
[0017] e = (H TS +a TS )-(H BS -a BS )-E;
[0018] In the formula, e is the end face error of the standard ring, and H TS For the first value, a TS H is the first value. BS For the third value, a BS The fourth value is E, where E is the height difference between the upper and lower end faces of the standard ring.
[0019] Furthermore, the distance between the upper and lower end faces of the rotating part is positively correlated with the fifth, sixth, and eighth values, and the distance between the upper and lower end faces of the rotating part is negatively correlated with the seventh value.
[0020] Furthermore, the formula for calculating the distance between the upper and lower end faces of the rotating part is as follows:
[0021] d=(H TM +a TM )-(H BM -a BM )-e;
[0022] In the formula, d is the distance between the upper and lower end faces of the rotating part, and H is... TM For the first value, a TM H is the first value. BM For the third value, a BM The fourth value is denoted as 'e', where 'e' is the end face error of the standard ring.
[0023] Furthermore, the height difference between the upper and lower end faces of the standard ring is a known value.
[0024] Furthermore, the probe inductance meter is used to measure roundness.
[0025] Furthermore, the roundness is calculated by rotating the rotating part on an air-bearing turntable and reading the inductance meter reading pressed onto the rotating part.
[0026] (3) Beneficial effects
[0027] In summary, this invention achieves simultaneous measurement of the distance between the upper and lower end faces of a rotating part (e.g., the blade tip clearance between the rotor and stator blades of an engine) and shape parameters related to roundness (e.g., roundness, runout, maximum runout value, angle corresponding to the maximum runout value, minimum runout value, angle corresponding to the minimum runout value, etc.) by combining the measurement method of the radius and roundness of the rotating part.
