AI Technical Summary
Existing methods for calibrating knee assemblies of leg impactors require additional data acquisition devices, resulting in high hardware costs and inaccurate calibration results.
A calibration displacement sensor and a calibration force sensor are fixedly installed on a material testing machine. Using the built-in displacement sensor and built-in data acquisition unit of the knee assembly, measurement channel data are obtained by applying force, a displacement measurement curve is fitted, and the performance of the built-in displacement sensor is evaluated.
No additional data acquisition equipment is required, ensuring the integrity of the calibration object, directly evaluating the performance of the leg impactor, and improving the accuracy of the calibration results.
