Technical Field

[0002] Fixed-wing UAVs are important aircraft, and the performance of their wings directly affects flight safety and stability. In actual production, due to differences in manufacturing processes and material properties, even wings produced in the same batch may have different strength characteristics. Especially for left-right symmetrical wings, if the strength characteristics of the wings on both sides are inconsistent, it will lead to asymmetric deformation during flight, affecting flight performance.
[0003] At present, the measurement of wing strength characteristics is mainly carried out through static loading test, setting several measurement points on the wing surface, and using displacement sensors to measure the deformation under different loads. This method is simple to operate, but the measurement points are limited and it is difficult to fully reflect the deformation characteristics of the wing. At present, some wing strength detection devices have been developed and used. For example, the Chinese utility model patent with patent number CN 219890958 U discloses a wing compression detection device for UAV production, which includes a frame, a lower clamping plate, an upper clamping plate and a rotating rod mechanism. By setting a fixed lower clamping plate on the inner wall of the frame and driving the upper clamping plate through a rotating rod threaded at the upper end of the frame, the wing can be clamped and detected. Although the device can complete the basic compression detection function, it still has the following shortcomings: 1. The measurement method is single and can only perform simple compressive strength tests, but cannot obtain the comprehensive deformation characteristics of the wing under actual stress conditions; 2. The device has a simple structure and lacks accurate means of measuring the deformation of the wing surface, making it difficult to achieve matching and screening of the left and right wings; 3. The measurement process requires a lot of manual operation, which is inefficient and the repeatability of the measurement results is poor. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] The following will be combined Figure 1-Figure 9 The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail. It should be noted that the following description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, rather than a limitation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention shall be subject to the attached claims.
[0023] Example 1: Basic measurement and matching screening method This embodiment provides a basic measurement and matching screening method for the strength characteristics of a fixed-wing UAV wing. The method is used to detect the characteristic changes of the material surface shape (such as curvature, stiffness and strength) in the segmented area of wing 02 (wing 02 refers to the mutually symmetrical left wing or right wing) under the same mechanical stress. The method includes the following steps: 1. Wing installation and measurement preparation 1.1 Wing 02 fixing steps: (1) Pretreatment of Wing 02: Check the appearance of Wing 02 to ensure there are no obvious defects; clean the surface of Wing 02 to remove impurities that may affect the measurement; mark reference points in the predetermined measurement area.
[0024] (2) Positioning of wing 02: Select a suitable fixing point on the wing handle 021 according to the structural characteristics of wing 02; ensure that the fixing point does not affect the natural deformation of wing 02; ensure that the left and right wings use the same positioning method; and confirm that the fixing device does not interfere with the measurement.
[0025] 1.2 Measurement system initialization: Before the measurement begins, first check the measurement environment to ensure that the ambient temperature and humidity are within the standard range, that there is no vibration or strong electromagnetic interference at the measurement site, and that the lighting conditions are appropriate. Establish the coordinate origin based on the fixed end of wing 02 to determine the reference position and boundary range of the measurement area. Calibrate all measurement sensors, including zero point calibration of the displacement measurement system, accuracy verification of the angle measurement system, and metrological inspection of the load application device.
[0026] 2. Measurement point arrangement and stress loading 2.1 Determination of measuring points: To ensure the accuracy and representativeness of the measurement results, the measurement area is first divided on the surface of wing 02, and the key measurement points are determined from the wing handle 021 to the wing tip according to the structural characteristics of wing 02. The arrangement of the measurement points needs to take into account the change law of the airfoil, and the measurement points should be appropriately encrypted in areas where the airfoil changes greatly. For the left and right wings 02, the positions of the measurement points must be strictly corresponding to ensure the accuracy of the subsequent symmetry comparison. The measurement benchmark is marked at each determined measurement point. The measurement benchmark should include displacement measurement points, angle measurement points, and stress application points, and the benchmark mark must not affect the deformation characteristics of wing 02.
[0027] 2.2 Hierarchical loading process: According to the structural characteristics and strength requirements of wing 02, a graded loading plan is formulated. At each measuring point, the load is gradually applied according to the preset loading level, and the loading process of each level of load should be kept uniform and stable. During the load application process, the deformation of wing 02 needs to be observed in real time to ensure that the deformation of wing 02 under each level of load is within the preset range. After each level of load is applied, a certain stabilization time is maintained, and relevant data is collected after the deformation of wing 02 is stabilized. During the entire loading process, the load values at each level should be recorded synchronously, and the direction of the load should be monitored to ensure that the load is always perpendicular to the surface of wing 02.
[0028] 3. Data collection process (see Figure 2 and Figure 3 ) 3.1 Angle data collection: Under the action of various levels of load, a systematic angle measurement method is used to collect angle change data of each measuring point of wing 02 in the order from wing handle to wing tip. Figure 2As shown, the wing 02 is divided into three characteristic areas L1, L2, and L3 along the span direction, and multiple measurement points are set in each area to form a measurement network distributed in sequence from the wing handle 021 to the wing tip. The angle sensor collects angle sequence data such as ∠A, ∠B, ∠C at each measurement point. This continuous angle change sequence not only reflects the bending deformation degree of the wing 02 at different positions, but also reflects the gradual and continuous characteristics of the deformation.
[0029] To ensure the measurement accuracy, repeated measurements are used at the measurement points in each area. The statistical average is obtained through multiple acquisitions to effectively reduce the impact of random errors. At the same time, the system also records the angle increment relationship between adjacent measurement points. This relative angle change measurement method can accurately reflect the local characteristics of the deformation of wing 02. During the data acquisition process, the load sensor monitors and records the size of the applied load in real time to ensure that the load remains stable during the angle measurement.
[0030] An important feature of the measurement system is the establishment of a complete angle-load response curve. In each measurement area, the system records the angle changes under different load levels. By analyzing these response curves, the stiffness distribution characteristics of Wing 02 can be evaluated. In particular, after completing a round of angle data collection, a system unloading test is performed to record the angle recovery state of Wing 02 to ensure the reliability and integrity of the measurement data.
[0031] For the left and right wings 02, the same measurement area division, measurement point layout, data collection process and sampling frequency are used, and time synchronization control is used to ensure that the measurement data of the two wings have a strict correspondence, providing a reliable data basis for subsequent symmetry analysis. This systematic angle measurement method, combined with the technical features of multi-point layout, repeated measurement and synchronous collection, can comprehensively and accurately obtain the deformation characteristic data of wing 02.
[0032] 3.2 Displacement data collection: While collecting angle data, measure the displacement changes of wing 02 under different loads. Use a displacement measuring device to record the displacement value of the wing tip of wing 02 under each level of load. During the displacement measurement process, the stability of the measurement reference should be ensured to avoid displacement of the fixed end of wing 02. For each level of load, multiple displacement measurements are performed to improve data reliability, and the real-time curve of displacement changing with load is recorded. At the same time, monitor the overall deformation trend of wing 02 under load to ensure the continuity and stability of the deformation process. After completing the loading measurement, record the displacement recovery data during the unloading process to evaluate the deformation recovery characteristics of wing 02. Use the same displacement measurement scheme for the left and right wings 02 to ensure the comparability of the measurement data.
[0033] 4. Data Processing and Analysis 4.1 Data preprocessing: The collected angle and displacement data are preprocessed, including data screening, outlier processing and data smoothing. First, the original data is screened to remove obviously abnormal data points. For data that are repeatedly measured, statistical methods are used to determine their effective values. Necessary corrections are made to the measured data to eliminate the influence of measurement system errors and environmental factors.
[0034] 4.2 Characteristic Analysis: Based on the processed data, the strength characteristics of wing 02 at each measurement point are analyzed. The stiffness characteristics under different loads are calculated to evaluate the deformation uniformity of wing 02. By analyzing the load-deformation relationship curve, the linear deformation range of wing 02 is determined. The angle change law of each measurement point is compared to evaluate the strength distribution characteristics of wing 02 along the span direction.
[0035] 4.3 Matching evaluation: For the left and right wings 02, the angle difference and displacement difference of the corresponding measurement points are calculated to evaluate their symmetry. The deformation consistency of the wings 02 on both sides under the same load is analyzed, and the discrete degree of key parameters is calculated. Based on multiple evaluation indicators, a comprehensive scoring mechanism is established to quantify the matching degree of the wings 02 on both sides.
[0036] 5. Screening Decisions 5.1 Eligibility determination: According to the preset technical standards, the test results of Wing 02 are qualified. The judgment content includes key indicators such as maximum deformation, deformation uniformity, and residual deformation. For Wing 02 that does not meet the requirements, the reasons for failure are analyzed to provide a basis for subsequent process improvements.
[0037] 5.2 Matching screening: Perform matching analysis on the wing 02 that has passed the qualification judgment. Sort all possible wing 02 combinations based on the comprehensive scoring results. Select the wing 02 combination with the highest matching degree as the optimal matching pair. At the same time, record the suboptimal matching combination to provide alternative solutions for practical application.
[0038] Embodiment 2: This embodiment provides a device for measuring the strength characteristics of fixed-wing UAV wings and for symmetry matching and screening. The device is mainly used to detect the characteristic changes of the surface shape (such as curvature, stiffness and strength) of the material in the segmented area of wing 02 (wing 02 refers to the mutually symmetrical left wing or right wing) under the same mechanical stress. For some UAVs with higher requirements for wing 02, it is necessary to further accurately measure and compare the surface deformation of the wing-body partition.
[0039] The test device is mainly composed of a support frame 10 with horizontal adjustment, a graded stress generating counterweight module 20, an XY measurement platform positioning mechanism 30, a wingtip height measuring ruler 40, a wing-body partition angle measurement component, a wing-body partition deformation measurement component 50 and a computer processing system.
[0040] The support frame 10 is used as the basic support structure of the whole device, and a mounting seat 03 for mounting the wing 02 is provided on one side of the upper part thereof. The graded stress generating counterweight module 20 is used to apply a test load on the wing 02.
[0041] The XY-axis measuring platform positioning mechanism 30 includes an X-axis moving structure 31 and a Y-axis moving structure 32. The X-axis moving structure 31 includes a horizontal X-axis guide rail 311, a slider 312, a drive motor 313 and a crossbeam frame 314. The horizontal X-axis guide rail 311 is fixed to the support frame 10, and the slider 312 is slidably connected to the horizontal X-axis guide rail 311 through a rolling bearing. The drive motor 313 drives the slider 312 to reciprocate on the horizontal X-axis guide rail 311 through a synchronous belt transmission mechanism. The crossbeam frame 314 is fixed to the slider 312 and is used to support the Y-axis moving structure 32.
[0042] The Y-direction moving structure 32 includes a horizontal Y-direction guide rail 321, a moving seat 322 and a driving device (not shown in the figure). The horizontal Y-direction guide rail 321 is fixed on the crossbeam frame 314, perpendicular to the direction of the horizontal X-direction guide rail 311. The moving seat 322 is slidably connected to the horizontal Y-direction guide rail 321 through a linear bearing. The driving device can adopt a prior art, such as a lead screw nut pair structure, to drive the moving seat 322 to move on the horizontal Y-direction guide rail 321.
[0043] The wing-body partition deformation measurement assembly 50 is connected to the moving seat 322 of the Y-axis moving structure 32, and is used to measure the deformation of the wing 02 surface. Its main body is a lattice frame 51, which is made of lightweight and high-strength material. A plurality of regular vertical through holes are arranged in the lattice frame 51, and these through holes are evenly distributed in a matrix. A cross-connected and interconnected airbag system is arranged around each through hole. The airbag system is made of a wear-resistant and airtight rubber material, and the hole wall diameter of the through hole can be accurately adjusted by inflation and deflation: when inflated, the airbag expands to reduce the hole wall diameter, and when deflated, the airbag contracts to restore the hole wall diameter.
[0044] A deformation measurement component rod 52 is inserted in each through hole, and a marking point is provided on the top thereof for position tracking. The side wall of the lattice frame 51 is provided with an air inlet 53 and an air outlet 54, both of which are connected to the internal airbag system. One-way valves are respectively provided at the air inlet 53 and the air outlet 54 to prevent accidental air leakage from affecting the measurement accuracy. When the airbag is filled with gas, the expansion of the airbag will evenly squeeze the deformation measurement component rod 52, so that it can stably hover in the through hole; when the gas in the airbag is discharged, the airbag shrinks, and an appropriate gap is generated between the airbag and the deformation measurement component rod 52, so that the deformation measurement component rod 52 can fall freely along the through hole. The inflation pressure of the airbag can be adjusted according to the measurement requirements.
[0045] The measurement process specifically includes the following steps: first, the wing 02 is fixedly mounted on the support frame 10, and then the preset stress is applied through the graded stress generating counterweight module 20 and basic data is collected. Then, through the coordinated movement of the X-direction moving structure 31 and the Y-direction moving structure 32, the wing-body partition deformation measurement assembly 50 is accurately positioned directly above the sub-area to be measured of the wing 02. During measurement, the deformation measurement component rods 52 are sequentially dropped to the surface of the wing 02 by controlling the airbag system, and the end points of the multiple measurement component rods 52 jointly form a three-dimensional curved surface shape reflecting the bending of the wing 02.
[0046] To ensure measurement accuracy, the wing-body partition deformation measurement assembly 50 is equipped with a height adjustment structure 55. The structure adopts a cylinder design, which can drive the entire assembly to perform precise up and down position adjustment. A retraction plate 80 is set on the support frame 10, which is used to reliably reset the deformation measurement component rods 52 at different heights back to the initial state. The system uses a high-definition camera device to record the spatial position of the top mark point of the deformation measurement component rod 52 in real time. Combined with computer image processing technology, it can accurately obtain the three-dimensional deformation data of the surface of the wing 02. Finally, this data is fused and analyzed with the data collected by the angle sensing element, and the overall reliability of the measurement results is improved through data complementarity. All measurement data are transmitted to the computer processing system in real time for analysis and processing.
[0047] Furthermore, in the deformation measurement of fixed-wing wings, the wing root area has particularity. Compared with the large deformation of the wing body under load, the wing root area has a smaller deformation due to its structural characteristics and force distribution, usually within 8 mm at most. However, as the connection between the wing and the fuselage, the wing root area not only has the largest area, but is also the key node for force transmission of the entire wing. Its slight deformation has a decisive influence on the overall strength characteristics and flight safety of the wing. Considering that the wing-body partition deformation measurement component needs to maintain a large movement space (including mechanical avoidance in linear motion, steering switching when measuring the left and right wings, etc.) to achieve measurement coverage of the entire wing, this embodiment sets a set of conductive fiber network measurement systems specifically for the wing root area on the bottom surface of the lattice frame 51. The system adopts highly sensitive flexible conductive fibers and dense sensor network layout, and cooperates with high-precision strain sensing units to accurately capture the slight deformation of the wing root area under various levels of load, providing more comprehensive data support for evaluating the strength characteristics of the wing and screening the optimal match.
[0048] Specifically, a foldable lightweight support ring 60 is provided at the bottom edge of the lattice frame, and the support ring 60 can be expanded and retracted by a micro motor drive. A conductive fiber network 61 is arranged on the support ring 60, and the network adopts flexible conductive fibers 611 made of graphene / silver nanowire composite materials, which have good ductility and conductive properties. The conductive fibers 611 are arranged in a warp and weft interlaced manner to form a regular sensing grid. A micro strain sensing unit is provided at the intersection of each grid, which is connected to the signal acquisition module through a flexible wire. The diameter of the support ring 60 in the retracted state is equivalent to the bottom surface of the lattice frame, and the diameter in the expanded state is 20% larger than the bottom surface of the lattice frame, ensuring that the complete measurement area can be covered.
[0049] During operation, first, according to the method of Example 2, the position data of the key measurement points in the wing-body area are obtained through the deformation measurement component rod 52. When measuring to the wing root area, the support ring 60 is controlled to unfold so that the conductive fiber network 61 is evenly attached to the wing surface. The counterweight module applies various levels of load to the wing, and the conductive fiber network 61 deforms along the wing surface. The deformation data of each grid node is collected in real time through the strain sensing unit. After these data are processed by the signal acquisition module, a high-precision deformation distribution cloud map of the wing root area can be obtained.
[0050] This measurement scheme ensures the measurement accuracy of large-scale deformation of the wing body and can accurately capture the subtle deformation characteristics of the wing root area through the coordinated work of the rigid measurement component and the flexible conductive network. Since the conductive fiber 611 has moderate elasticity, as long as the contact part of the deformation measurement component rod 52 is designed to be a smooth arc and the gravity is greater than the elastic force of the conductive fiber 611, the two measurement systems can work together without interfering with each other. Especially when matching the symmetry of the left and right wings, the accurate deformation data of the wing root area provides a key basis for selecting the optimal matching combination.
[0051] Example 3: Wing strength characteristics measurement method based on three-dimensional surface reconstruction This embodiment provides a wing strength characteristic measurement method based on three-dimensional surface reconstruction based on the measurement device described in Example 2. The method realizes accurate measurement and matching screening of the strength characteristics of wing 02 by automatically controlling the operation of the measurement device. The specific implementation steps are as follows: The measurement system first performs self-test and initialization, including checking the airtightness of the airbag system, the reset state of the deformation measurement component rod 52, the motion control system of the X-axis moving structure 31 and the Y-axis moving structure 32, and the working state of the high-definition camera device. After confirming that all systems are normal, the wing 02 is installed on the mounting seat 03 of the support frame 10, and the measurement area is divided on the surface of the wing 02 to determine the location of the key measurement points.
[0052] During the measurement process, the system controls the graded stress generating counterweight module 20 to apply loads step by step according to a preset program. For each level of load, the wing-body partition deformation measurement assembly 50 is accurately positioned above each area to be measured on the wing 02 through the coordinated movement of the X-axis moving structure 31 and the Y-axis moving structure 32. During the positioning process, the control system accurately adjusts the height adjustment structure 55 according to the position characteristics of the area to be measured, so that the lattice frame 51 is maintained at the optimal measurement height. During measurement, the system controls the inflation and deflation of the airbag according to a predetermined sequence, so that the deformation measurement component rod 52 falls down in sequence to contact each measurement point on the surface of the wing 02, and at the same time, the spatial position data of the mark point at the top of the deformation measurement component rod 52 is collected through a high-definition camera.
[0053] The computer processing system receives and processes the measurement data in real time, and reconstructs the three-dimensional deformation surface of the wing 02 surface through image processing algorithms. The system also collects the measurement data of the angle sensing element, and uses a data fusion algorithm to complement and integrate the two measurement data to improve the accuracy of the measurement results. For each load level, the system saves complete measurement data, including load value, displacement data, angle data, and spatial coordinate information of each measurement point.
[0054] After completing a measurement area, the control system resets the deformation measurement component rod 52 by retracting the plate 80 and moves to the next measurement area to continue measurement. During the entire measurement process, the system continuously monitors the measurement status, including key parameters such as airbag pressure, load stability, and displacement sensor data. When an abnormal condition is detected, the system automatically pauses the measurement and performs fault diagnosis.
[0055] For the measurement of the left and right wings 02, the system uses exactly the same measurement parameters and processes to ensure the comparability of the measurement data. After the measurement is completed, the system conducts a comprehensive analysis of the collected data, calculates various characteristic parameters, evaluates the matching degree of the left and right wings, and finally generates a detailed test report to provide data support for the matching screening of the wings.
