Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of machinery, and in particular to a wave foil measuring fixture. Background Art
[0002] The corrugated foil type gas dynamic pressure bearing has the advantages of high speed, low friction power consumption, oil-free lubrication and good vibration reduction performance. It has been used in aerospace, automobile, micro motor, micro gas turbine and other fields. This type of bearing uses elastic flat foil as the surface for generating lubricating gas film, and elastic corrugated foil as damping support. The flexible support structure composed of flat foil and corrugated foil has a great influence on the bearing performance. Different bearing stiffness and damping can be obtained by changing the shape parameters of corrugated foil and flat foil. Among them, corrugated foil is usually obtained by cold stamping method. After processing and use, the corrugated foil will warp, which makes it difficult to accurately measure its shape parameters such as wave height and wave distance.
[0003] Therefore, a set of wave foil measuring fixture is needed to unfold and fix the wave foil flatly to achieve accurate measurement of its shape parameters such as wave height and wave distance. Summary of the invention

[0020] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0021] Example 1
[0022] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the present invention provides a bump foil measuring fixture, comprising a base 1, a pressing plate 2, and bolts 3; the bolts 3 fix the pressing plate 2 on the base 1 to form a complete bump foil measuring fixture.
[0023] The base 1 is provided with threaded holes for cooperating with the bolts 3 , and the pressing plate 2 is provided with three extended holes corresponding to the bolts 3 for adjusting the positions of the pressing plate 2 and the corrugated foil on the base 1 .
[0024] The pressing plate 2 is designed with a plurality of latching teeth arranged at equal distances, and the distance between the bottom of the latching teeth on the pressing plate 2 and the base 1 is 0.1 mm.
[0025] An embedded block 5 is provided at the bottom end of the base 1. The base 1 itself is made of transparent engineering plastic material. A camera 8 and a connecting line 9 extending from the camera 8 are installed at the rear end of the embedded block 5. A magnetic strip 7 is also provided on one side of the embedded block 5, and a scale line 6 is also provided on the top surface of the base 1.
[0026] The working steps are as follows:
[0027] First, fix the base 1, and use the bolts 3 to fix one of the pressure plates 2 on the base 1; use the latch teeth 20 on the fixed pressure plate 2 to cooperate with the straight section 41 of the bump foil, and the raised corrugations 40 of the bump foil are in the gap of the latch teeth 20 to fix one end of the bump foil 4 on the base 1; use the latch teeth on the other pressure plate 2 to contact and cooperate with the straight section 41 at the other end of the bump foil; tighten the bolts 3 on the pressure plate 2 to fix the pressure plate 2 on the base 1, so that the bump foil 4 is fixed straight in the fixture.
[0028] When performing digital recording, the scale lines 6 set on the transparent base 1 can be projected to the bottom side. Therefore, when the connecting line 9 is connected to other devices, the fisheye lens formed by the internal periscope camera 8 can directly shoot the length before and after the scale lines 6, and save it to the terminal for processing, or directly based on the main control module contained in the embedded block 5, such as the image recognition module carried by the MCU control unit, directly read the data of the captured image, and finally send the specific number to the terminal for recording; and the magnetic strip 7 on one side is used to fix the wave foil 4 on the upper side of the base 1 by absorption, and complete the preliminary adsorption and fixation before the pressure plate 2 is installed.
[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention.
