[0002] With the development of economy and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, cars have become an important means of travel for people. During the use of cars, their motors are their main core power. Therefore, the detection of the housing of new energy vehicle drive motors is very important and necessary.

[0003] During the processing of the motor casing, it is necessary to machine the upper and lower stoppers on the inner wall of the motor casing. Due to the wear of the tool, there are differences in the inner diameter sizes of the same batch of motor casings. If the inner diameter of the casing is too large, the electric iron core will fall off. If the inner diameter of the casing is too small, the iron core will touch the casing, affecting the normal operation of the iron core.

[0004] The error of the inner diameter of traditional motor housings is within 0.5 mm, and the requirements for detection agencies are not high. With the development of new energy vehicles, the error of the inner diameter of existing motor housings needs to be within 0.06 mm, and the requirements for detection agencies are also increased accordingly; and traditional detection agencies are unable to detect the produced motor housings in real time, and therefore cannot make corrections in time.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] Please refer to the instruction manual Figure 1 To Attachment Figure 6 As shown, the horizontal direction is a and the vertical direction is b. The present invention is a detection mechanism and a detection method for a motor housing. The motor housing 1 is in an elliptical cylindrical shape. An upper stop 11 is provided on the inner wall of the upper end of the motor housing 1, and a lower stop 12 is provided on the inner wall of the lower end of the motor housing 1. The detection mechanism includes a frame 2 and a base 21 slidably connected to the frame 2 in a transverse direction. The base 21 passes through a turntable 22, a lower elastic measuring claw mechanism 3, a plug probe 43 mechanism 4, an upper elastic measuring claw mechanism 5 and a height measuring mechanism 6 longitudinally installed on the frame 2 in sequence. In this embodiment, the lower elastic measuring claw mechanism 3 corresponds to the plug probe 43 mechanism 4, and the upper elastic measuring claw mechanism 5 corresponds to the height measuring mechanism 6. The detection mechanism can feed back the data of the inner diameter of the motor housing 1 to the production mechanism of the motor housing in real time. The production mechanism of the motor housing adjusts the position of the processing tool according to the data in real time, thereby processing a motor housing 1 that meets the standards.

[0028] The turntable 22 moves up and down through the telescopic mechanism 221, and the telescopic mechanism 221 is installed on the frame 2. In this embodiment, the turntable 22 is cross-shaped and includes two layers. The top layer of the turntable 22 is smaller than the inner diameter of the motor housing 1, and the bottom layer of the turntable 22 is larger than the inner diameter of the motor housing 1. When in use, the motor housing 1 can be mounted on the turntable 22.

[0029] The base 21 is provided with a through slot 23 for the turntable 22 to move up and down. The turntable 22 can pass through the base 21. A plurality of positioning blocks 231 are installed on the side wall of the through slot 23. The plurality of positioning blocks 231 can move away from or close to the center point of the through slot 23. When in use, the turntable 22 extends out of the base 21 through the through slot 23, the motor housing 1 is placed on the turntable 22, the height of the turntable 22 is lowered until the motor housing 1 is installed on the turntable 22, and the positioning blocks 231 are moved away from the center point of the through slot 23 until the motor housing 1 is fixed on the base 21. In this embodiment, the base 21 is moved laterally by the servo motor 211. Two sensors 222 are also installed on the frame 2. The two sensors 222 are located on both sides of the turntable 22. When the turntable 22 drives the motor housing 1 to move onto the base 21, the sensor 222 receives a signal and starts the positioning blocks 231 to clamp the motor housing 1, which has a high degree of automation.

[0030] The lower elastic measuring claw mechanism 3 includes two lower inner diameter measuring heads 31, which are laterally moved on the frame 2 by the lower transverse cylinder 32. The two lower transverse cylinders 32 are fixedly connected to the lower mounting plate 33, and the lower mounting plate 33 is lifted and lowered by the lower lifting cylinder 1 35. A lower abutment block 34 is fixedly connected to the lower mounting plate 33, and a movable groove for the lower inner diameter measuring head 31 to move is provided on the lower abutment block 34. The lower abutment block 34 is used to protect the lower inner diameter measuring head 31 to prevent the lower inner diameter measuring head 31 from touching the motor housing 1 when the lower inner diameter measuring head 31 is raised, causing damage to the lower inner diameter measuring head 31. The lower inner diameter measuring head 31 is used to measure the inner diameter of the lower stop 12 of the motor housing 1.

[0031] The plug probe mechanism 4 includes a support plate 41 fixed to the top of the frame 2, and a plug probe 43 is slidably connected to the support plate 41. The plug probe 43 is driven in the vertical direction by the plug cylinder 42. A sensing point (not shown in the figure) is installed on each end of the plug probe 43. The two sensing points are used to measure the inner diameter of the motor housing 1. The sliding path of the plug probe 43 corresponds to the sliding path of the lower inner diameter probe 31, and can simultaneously detect the inner diameter of the motor housing 1 and the inner diameter of the lower stop 12. The plug probe 43 can slide up and down to obtain two inner diameters of the motor housing 1 in the vertical direction, thereby avoiding excessive error of the inner diameter of the motor housing 1 in the vertical direction.

[0032] The upper elastic measuring claw mechanism 5 includes two upper inner diameter measuring heads 51, which are longitudinally moved on the frame 2 by the upper longitudinal cylinder 52. The two upper longitudinal cylinders 52 are fixedly connected to the upper mounting plate 53, and the upper mounting plate 53 is lifted and lowered by the upper lifting cylinder 55. An upper abutment block 54 is fixedly connected to the upper mounting plate 53, and a movable groove for the upper inner diameter measuring head 51 to move is provided on the upper abutment block 54. The upper abutment block 54 is used to protect the upper inner diameter measuring head 51 to prevent the upper inner diameter measuring head 51 from touching the motor housing 1 when the upper inner diameter measuring head 51 is raised, thereby causing damage to the upper inner diameter measuring head 51. The upper inner diameter measuring head 51 is used to measure the inner diameter of the upper stop 12 of the motor housing 1.

[0033] The height measuring mechanism 6 includes an upper dial gauge block 61 and a lower dial gauge block 62. The upper dial gauge block 61 is lifted and lowered by an upper height cylinder 611, and the lower dial gauge block 62 is lifted and lowered by a lower height cylinder 621. A sensor fixing plate 63 is installed below the upper dial gauge block 61. In this embodiment, the sensor fixing plate 63 is arc-shaped, and sensors 2 64 are installed at both ends of the sensor fixing plate 63. When the motor housing 1 moves toward the upper dial gauge block 61, the sensor 2 64 can sense the position of the motor housing 1 to prevent the motor housing 1 from colliding with the upper dial gauge block 61 when moving.

[0034] The working principle of the detection mechanism of the motor housing 1 of the present invention is as follows: first, the motor housing 1 is placed on the turntable 22, the height of the turntable 22 is lowered until the motor housing 1 is placed on the base 21, the positioning block 231 is started, and the plurality of positioning blocks 231 are moved away from the center of the through slot 23 until the plurality of positioning blocks 231 fix the motor housing 1, the base 21 is moved, the motor housing 1 is moved downward to the elastic measuring claw mechanism 3, the lifting cylinder 1 is started, and the two lower inner diameter measuring heads 31 are linked to move to the lower stop 12 of the motor housing 1 , start the lower horizontal cylinder 32, move the lower inner diameter probe 31 to the side wall of the lower stop 12 of the motor housing 1, and obtain the inner diameter of the lower stop 12, move the plug probe 43 into the motor housing 1, and obtain the inner diameter of the motor housing 1 through the sensing point on the plug probe 43, and lift the plug probe 43 again to obtain another inner diameter of the motor housing 1 through the sensing point. After detecting the inner wall of the motor housing 1 and the inner diameter of the lower stop 12, move the base 21 to move the motor housing 1 to the upper elastic measuring claw mechanism 5, and start the lifting cylinder 2. The two upper inner diameter measuring heads 51 are linked to move toward the side wall of the upper stop 11 of the motor to obtain the inner diameter of the upper stop 11, and the upper dial gauge measuring block 61 and the lower dial gauge measuring block 62 are moved to the motor housing 1 to measure the height of the motor housing 1. After detecting the height of the motor housing 1 and the inner diameter of the upper stop 11, the base 21 drives the motor housing 1 to move above the turntable 22, releases the connection between the positioning block 231 and the motor housing 1, raises the turntable 22, lifts the motor housing 1, rotates 90 degrees, and fixes the motor housing 1 again. On the base 21, the mobile base 21 detects the inner diameter, the lower stop 12, the upper stop 11 and the height of the inner wall of the motor housing 1 in turn to obtain a second set of data, and takes the average of the two sets of data and compares them with the standard size. If the value is within 0.06mm of the standard, production is carried out. Otherwise, the tool is readjusted to process a new motor housing 1 until the processing meets the standard motor housing 1. The motor housings 1 to be produced are inspected by the inspection mechanism in turn. If an unqualified motor housing 1 is found, the above-mentioned tool adjustment steps are repeated to realize the inspection of the motor housing 1.

[0035] The above specific implementation methods are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
