[0042] In this embodiment, the robot joint to be calibrated is the arm 3 of a six-degree-of-freedom vertical multi-joint industrial robot 1, and the internal transmission of the arm 3 is a three-stage gear reduction box configuration.

[0044] The present invention provides a large-load robot transmission stiffness calibration device, and its working principle is:

[0045] During bending moment loading, multiple discus with center holes are placed on the test rod 501 at one end of the test torque beam 5, or water is released or pumped out of the counterweight cylinder 7 to achieve positive loading or unloading, reverse loading or unloading of the output shaft of the forearm 3, and calibrate the required torque test dimension Nm.

If the third-stage large gear 302 and the third-stage small gear 303 are in different relative positions to the ground, some are close to the tooth root, and some are close to the tooth top, that is, the tooth top meshes 306. Therefore, the meshing phase is different, and the meshing stiffness is also different. Therefore, the present invention has the ability to calibrate the stiffness curve of the gear of the fifth-axis gearbox configuration of the large-load robot at different meshing phases, thereby improving the optimization strategy database of the control stiffness model and the vibration model.
