TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of stress-free assembly of an unlocking device of a tracking and sighting main machine for spaceflight, and relates to a structure and method for eliminating assembly stress of an unlocking device of a tracking and sighting main machine. BACKGROUND
[0002] The tracking and sighting main machine for space is used for high-precision tracking and monitoring of space targets, and is generally composed of a camera main body, a two-dimensional turntable mechanism and an unlocking device. The camera main body is usually composed of photoelectric imaging, detection and laser ranging modules, and realizes high-definition imaging, angle measurement and ranging of space targets. The two-dimensional turntable mechanism is composed of a U-shaped frame, an azimuth shaft system, an elevation driving shaft system and an elevation brake shaft system, and the azimuth shaft system, the elevation driving shaft system and the elevation brake shaft system are connected with the U-shaped frame through high-precision bearings. The middle part of the camera main body is fixedly connected with the elevation driving shaft system and the elevation brake shaft system on the two-dimensional turntable mechanism through the flange with a stop opening, so that the relative positional relationship remains unchanged when the camera main body rotates around the elevation shaft of the two-dimensional turntable mechanism; the flange disc of the azimuth shaft system is fixedly connected with the satellite cabin plate through screws, and the integrated body of the U-shaped frame, the elevation shaft system and the camera main body is fixedly connected with the azimuth shaft system through high-precision bearings and rotates around the azimuth shaft. The lower part of the camera main body is fixed with the middle part of the U-shaped frame through the elevation unlocking device, and the bottom of the U-shaped frame is fixed with the satellite cabin plate through the azimuth unlocking device. The unlocking device ensures that the entire tracking and sighting main machine is locked and does not move along with the satellite during the launch active stage, and plays the functions of locking and supporting. After entering the orbit, the unlocking device is unlocked and separated into two parts, releasing the rotation degrees of freedom of the elevation shaft and the azimuth shaft of the tracking and sighting main machine, so that the tracking and sighting main machine has the function of two-axis rotation in orbit.
[0003] When the unlocking device is installed, due to machining and assembly errors, there are connection surfaces that are not parallel and small gaps at the flange end surface where the flange surface of the unlocking device is connected with the camera main body and at the flange connection between the unlocking device flange and the satellite cabin plate flange. If the flange screws are forcibly tightened, assembly stress will exist, the assembly stress at the elevation unlocking device will cause the main mirror surface of the camera main body to decline, and then weaken the performance of the camera main body, and the assembly stress at the azimuth unlocking device will damage the bearings of the azimuth shaft system of the turntable, and then affect the stability of the shaft system (orthogonality) of the two-dimensional turntable mechanism.
[0004] The traditional method is to measure the value of the micro gap by using a feeler gauge, and then process a gasket with a corresponding thickness to fill the micro gap, but the feeler gauge can only measure a minimum of 0.02mm gap, and cannot measure smaller gaps and wedge-shaped gaps, so it is impossible to completely fill the micro gap, resulting in assembly stress after the installation of the gasket, and the gasket needs to be processed according to the actual thickness, and the assembly efficiency is low. The patent with publication number CN108121048A discloses a self-adaptive assembly error and launch active vibration isolation device of a space remote sensor, a series of gaskets, bushings and bolts are arranged between the flange of the remote sensor and the flange of the satellite, which enhances the vibration reduction and isolation effect of the remote sensor in the launch active stage, solves the problem that the damping truss has limited vibration reduction and isolation capacity for the remote sensor in the launch active stage; by designing a series of gasket and bushing configurations, the flatness error of the remote sensor flange and the satellite flange is reduced, and the influence of the installation stress on the main mirror surface of the remote sensor is reduced, which makes up for the defect that the damping truss cannot meet the assembly precision requirements of the remote sensor and the satellite platform. This method needs to process gaskets according to the actual measurement data during assembly, which is low in efficiency, and cannot eliminate installation stress, so it is not suitable for stress-free assembly of the unlocker. The patent with publication number CN202089198U discloses a caliper with parallelism compensation structure, which effectively compensates for the error of the IS seat parallelism by adopting the design of spherical convex gasket cooperating with spherical concave arc surface, and plays a role in compensating and positioning. Although this method eliminates the parallelism error of the IS seat, it cannot compensate for the micro gap and cannot quantify the offset generated during assembly, so it is not suitable for stress-free assembly of the unlocker. SUMMARY

[0050] In order to make the object, technical scheme and advantages of the present application more clear, the following will make further detailed description to the structure and method for eliminating assembly stress of a follow-sighting main machine unlocker according to the present application in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments.
[0051] The present embodiment discloses a structure for eliminating assembly stress of a follow-sighting main machine unlocker, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 7 which comprises a pitch spacer unit and an azimuth spacer unit, and is used in the pitch shaft and azimuth shaft locking structure of a workpiece follow-sighting main machine connected to a satellite cabin plate 4.
[0052] As shown in Figure 7 , the workpiece follow-sighting main machine is composed of a two-dimensional turntable mechanism 2, a camera main body 1 and an unlocker 3, the unlocker 3 comprising an azimuth unlocker 31 and a pitch unlocker 32.
[0053] The two-dimensional turntable mechanism 2 is composed of a U-shaped frame 10, an azimuth shafting 9, a pitch driving shafting 11 and a pitch braking shafting 13, the azimuth shafting 9, the pitch driving shafting 11 and the pitch braking shafting 13 being rotationally connected to the U-shaped frame 10 through high-precision bearings 14, the rotation axes of the pitch driving shafting 11 and the pitch braking shafting 13 being collinear and forming a pitch shaft 12, the rotation axis of the azimuth shafting 9 being perpendicular to the rotation axis of the pitch driving shafting 11, the azimuth shafting 9 being rotationally connected to a satellite cabin plate 4, so that the U-shaped frame 10 is rotationally connected to the satellite cabin plate 4 through the azimuth shafting 9. The two ends of the U-shaped frame 10 are located at the two sides of the camera main body 1, the two sides of the camera main body 1 being rotationally connected to the U-shaped frame 10 through the pitch driving shafting 11 and the pitch braking shafting 13, and the camera main body 1 being rotatable relative to the U-shaped frame 10 about the axis of the pitch driving shafting 11. In the launching stage, the camera main body 1 is fixedly connected to the U-shaped frame 10 through the pitch unlocker 32, so as to realize the locking of the pitch axis 12. The U-shaped frame 10 is fixedly connected to a pyrotechnic base 5 through the azimuth unlocker 31, and then the pyrotechnic base 5 is fixedly connected to the satellite cabin plate 4, so as to realize the locking of the azimuth shaft 15. After launching, the pyrotechnics in the azimuth unlocker 31 and the pitch unlocker 32 explode, the azimuth unlocker 31 and the pitch unlocker 32 are disconnected, and the unlocking of the azimuth shaft 15 and the pitch shaft 12 is realized.
[0054] As shown in Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the pitch unlocker 32 is used for the connection locking of the pitch axis between the camera body 1 and the two-dimensional turntable mechanism 2. The azimuth unlocker 31 is used for the connection locking of the azimuth axis between the two-dimensional turntable mechanism 2 and the satellite cabin plate 4. The azimuth unlocker 31 is provided with 4, and the 4 azimuth unlockers 31 are respectively located on both sides of the azimuth axis system 9, and the 4 azimuth unlockers 31 are distributed in a rectangular shape.
[0055] The pitch unlocker 32 comprises an upper unit 312 and a lower unit 311 connected together, and a part between the upper unit 312 and the lower unit 311 is internally provided with a pyrotechnic product to separate the upper unit 312 and the lower unit 311 after launch. The two sides of the upper unit 312 are fixedly connected with connecting lugs 3c, and the outside of the lower unit 311 is connected with a connecting flange 3a. The connecting lug 3c of the pitch unlocker 32 is fixedly connected with the middle flange 10a on the inside of the U-shaped frame 10, and the two sides of the camera body 1 are fixedly connected with a camera flange 1b. The connecting flange 3a of the pitch unlocker 32 is provided with a pitch gasket unit between the connecting flange 3a and the camera flange 1b, and a first connecting bolt passes through the connecting flange 3a of the pitch unlocker 32, the pitch gasket unit and the camera flange 1b in sequence and is connected with the camera flange 1b.
[0056] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the pitch shim unit includes a pitch ball head shim 71, a pitch ball socket shim 72, and two pitch wedge shims 73. The first connecting bolt passes sequentially through the pitch ball head shim 71, the pitch ball socket shim 72, and the two pitch wedge shims 73. The flat surface of the pitch ball head shim 71 mates with the connecting flange of the pitch unlocker 32; the convex spherical surface of the pitch ball head shim 71 mates with the concave spherical surface of the pitch ball socket shim 72; the flat surface of the pitch ball socket shim 72 mates with the flat surface of one pitch wedge shim 73; the beveled surfaces of the two pitch wedge shims 73 mate with each other; and the flat surface of the other pitch wedge shim 73 mates with the camera flange. The angle between the beveled surfaces and the flat surfaces of the two pitch ball socket shims 72 is consistent, and this angle satisfies the requirement that the two pitch ball socket shims 72 can self-lock when the first connecting bolt is tightened. Both the pitch ball joint gasket 71 and the pitch ball socket gasket 72 are provided with pitch positioning holes for the first connecting bolt to pass through. The diameter of the pitch positioning hole is larger than the outer diameter of the first connecting bolt, so that there is a gap between the pitch ball joint gasket 71 and the pitch ball socket gasket 72 and the first connecting bolt. When the relative surfaces between the connecting flange of the pitch unlocker 32 and the camera flange are not parallel, the spherical fit formed by the convex and concave spherical surfaces between the pitch ball joint gasket 71 and the pitch ball socket gasket 72 can rotate relative to each other until the planes of the pitch ball joint gasket 71 and the pitch ball socket gasket 72 can rotate to be aligned with the planes of the connecting flange of the pitch unlocker 32 and the camera flange, thereby accurately compensating for the non-parallelism between the planes of the connecting flange of the unlocker body and the camera flange. Each pitch wedge gasket 73 has a first elongated groove along the direction of its thickness variation for the first connecting bolt to pass through. This causes the distance between the planes of the two pitch wedge gaskets 73 to increase or decrease when the pitch wedge gasket 73 is pushed, thereby accurately compensating for the different sizes of gaps between the connecting flange of the unlocker body and the camera flange caused by machining errors, etc.
[0057] The structure of the azimuth unlocker 31 is the same as that of the pitch unlocker 32. The connecting lug 3c of the azimuth unlocker 31 is fixedly connected to the four corner flanges 10b of the U-shaped frame 10, and the connecting flange 3a of the azimuth unlocker 31 is connected to the satellite panel 4 and is provided with an azimuth gasket unit.
[0058] like Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, the azimuth pad unit includes a pyrotechnic base 5, an azimuth ball head pad 61 and an azimuth wedge pad 62. The pyrotechnic base 5 is provided with a bottom flange 5a and a connecting plane 5b at two ends thereof. A U-shaped recess is arranged on one side of the pyrotechnic base 5, and the U-shaped recess is located at the middle position of the connecting plane 5b. The lower unit of the azimuth unlocker 31 is clamped in the U-shaped recess, and the connecting flange of the azimuth unlocker 31 is located on the side of the connecting plane 5b away from the bottom flange 5a, and the connecting flange 3a of the azimuth unlocker 31 is in contact with the connecting plane 5b and is fixed by a screw. The azimuth ball head pad and the azimuth wedge pad are arranged between the bottom flange 5a of the pyrotechnic base 5 and the satellite cabin plate 4. The bottom flange 5a is provided with a plurality of through holes for the second connecting bolts to pass through. In the embodiment, each bottom flange 5a has three through holes, and the surface of the bottom flange 5a at one end of the through hole and facing the satellite cabin plate 4 is a concave spherical surface. Each second connecting bolt passes through the through hole of the bottom flange 5a, one azimuth ball head pad 61 and two azimuth wedge pads 62 in sequence and is connected with the satellite cabin plate 4. The convex spherical surface of the azimuth ball head pad 61 is matched with the concave spherical surface of the surface of the bottom flange 5a, the plane on the other side of the azimuth ball head pad 61 is matched with the plane of one azimuth wedge pad 62, the planes of the two azimuth wedge pads 62 are matched, and the plane of the other azimuth wedge pad 62 is matched with the surface of the satellite cabin plate 4. The azimuth ball head pad 61 is provided with an azimuth positioning hole for the second connecting bolt to pass through, and the hole diameter of the azimuth positioning hole is greater than the diameter of the second connecting bolt. The azimuth wedge pad 62 is provided with a second long strip-shaped groove for the second connecting bolt to pass through along the direction of the change of the thickness of the azimuth wedge pad 62.
[0059] As shown in Figure 7 , during assembly, one end of the pitch unlocker 32 is fixedly connected with the U-shaped frame 10 by a screw through the connecting lug 3c, and the connecting flange 3a at the other end of the pitch unlocker 32 has a certain width of the pitch mounting gap 18 with the camera flange 1b connected to the side surface of the camera main body 1. The pitch mounting gap 18 is filled and adapted by the pitch pad unit, and then connected by the first connecting bolt. One end of the azimuth unlocker 31 is fixedly connected with the U-shaped frame 10 by a screw through the connecting lug 3c, and the connecting flange 3a at the other end of the azimuth unlocker 31 is fixedly connected with the connecting plane 5b of the pyrotechnic base 5. The bottom flange 5a at the other end of the pyrotechnic base 5 has a certain width of the azimuth mounting gap 19 with the satellite cabin plate 4. The azimuth mounting gap 19 is filled and adapted by the azimuth pad unit, and then the pyrotechnic base 5 is rigidly connected with the satellite cabin plate 4 by the second connecting bolt.
[0060] As shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9 , the stress-free assembly process of the unlocker is as follows:
