[0032] Example 1

[0033] This embodiment provides a fiber optic gyroscope ring winding machine, which includes a mechanical transmission component and an electrical device, wherein the electrical device controls and drives the mechanical transmission component to operate according to a preset program to obtain a fiber optic ring that meets preset requirements; the mechanical transmission component includes a main shaft 1, a follower shaft 2, and a ring winding frame 7 (such as Figure 1 As shown) and a wire feeding mechanism; the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2 are coaxially arranged but not connected to each other, and a coaxially rotatable follower disk 3 is respectively provided on the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2; the main shaft 1 is used to fix and drive the ring frame 7 to rotate and wind the optical fiber, and the ring frame 7 is detachably connected to the main shaft 1, and the ring frame 7 is located between the two follower disks 3; the two wire feeding mechanisms are arranged on both sides of the main shaft 1 with the axis of the main shaft 1 as the axis of symmetry, and any wire feeding mechanism includes a wire feeding module 4 and a wire arranging module 5, and the wire arranging module 5 can drive the wire feeding module 4 to move along the axial direction of the main shaft 1, and its moving range is between the two follower disks 3 (as shown Figure 1 and 2 The inner side of the follower disk 3 is provided with a locking mechanism for fixing the wire supply module 4, and the cable arrangement module 5 can drive the wire supply module 4 to rise and fall in the vertical direction to adjust the height of the wire supply module 4.

[0034] During the optical fiber winding process, one of the two wire feeding mechanisms is the action mechanism and the other is the standby mechanism; the wire feeding module 4 and the wire arranging module 5 of the action mechanism are fixedly connected, and the wire arranging module 5 cooperates with the rotation speed of the main shaft 1 to drive the wire feeding module 4 to move along the axial direction of the main shaft 1, and supplies optical fiber to the winding skeleton 7 while moving, and the wire feeding module 4 of the standby mechanism is fixed on one of the follower disks 3 and rotates synchronously with the main shaft 1 or the following shaft (the relative position between the wire feeding module 4 of the standby mechanism and the winding skeleton 7 can remain unchanged. If an optical fiber is connected between the wire feeding module 4 and the winding skeleton 7, the optical fiber can be prevented from being pulled and damaged), and the wire arranging module 5 of the standby mechanism does not act.

[0035] 1) Main shaft 1, follower shaft 2 and follower plate 3

[0036] The main shaft 1 is the core module of the fully automatic fiber optic gyro winding machine. Its main functions are to install the auxiliary wheel, the winding frame 7, take up the wire, record the rotation angle (winding turns), and fix the wire supply module 4 to be supplied. According to the functional requirements of the main shaft 1, a follower disk 3 is added to the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2 respectively to fix the standby wire supply module 4 and rotate synchronously with it.

[0037] The main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2 adopt the servo motor and synchronous belt transmission mode, and are composed of the main shaft 1 motor, the follower shaft 2 motor, the follower disk 3, the main shaft 1 fixed seat and other structures. Its working principle: before fiber winding, the standby wire supply module 4 is fixed on the corresponding follower disk 3, and the fiber winding begins. The main shaft 1, the follower shaft 2 and the follower disk 3 rotate synchronously to ensure that the optical fiber on the standby side is not damaged while the line is collected. When the fiber winding is paused or ended, the main shaft 1 must stop at the designed position to ensure the symmetry of the optical fiber ring. During the entire rotation process, the motors of the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2 must be completely synchronized, otherwise when the standby wire supply module 4 is fixed on the follower disk 3 on the side of the follower shaft 2, the optical fiber will be pulled or broken due to the asynchronism of the two main shaft 1 motors. During the entire fiber winding process, the system reads and displays the current number of winding layers and turns through the code disk. Spindle 1 must have angle control function, angle control accuracy less than 0.1°, end runout less than 0.01mm, and shaft runout less than 0.01mm. Spindle 1 speed greater than 60r / min.

[0038] 2) Positioning of the ring frame 7 and the main shaft 1

[0039] One of the important functions of spindle 1 is to install the skeleton. The skeleton is the carrier of the fiber ring, and its positioning directly affects the quality of the fiber ring. High-precision fiber rings are based on reliable and accurate skeleton positioning. In order to facilitate the operator's operation and meet the requirements of fiber ring system, a reliable and accurate skeleton positioning method needs to be designed. The skeleton of this equipment adopts end face positioning in the axial direction and positioning cone with cone hole positioning in the radial direction. The skeleton is fixed by a locking screw that passes through the auxiliary wheel and the center hole of the skeleton and is directly locked with the spindle 1 thread.

[0040] 3) Cable module 5

[0041] The main function of the cable arrangement module 5 is to realize the cross-wire switching of the cable supply module 4 and the basic cable arrangement positioning of the optical fiber. The cable supply module 4 has two requirements for the cable arrangement module 5 during the cable switching process: first, the movement process of sending and taking the cable supply module 4 must be smooth, which must protect the optical fiber from damage and ensure that the wound optical fiber surface is not affected; second, the movement position must be accurate, which can smoothly realize the transition and docking of the cable supply module 4 between the cable arrangement module 5 and the follower disk 3.

[0042] The actuator of the cable arrangement module 5 adopts a two-axis combined mobile platform combined with a high-precision single-axis robot, and a servo motor is selected to cooperate with a screw module to perform movement. The high-precision single-axis robot can move accurately and smoothly in the direction of each guide rail, and the control system controls the motor to smoothly and accurately drive the two-axis combined mobile platform through the driver to realize the cross-line switching function. Its working principle is: the two axes of the cable arrangement module 5 move in sequence or simultaneously to send the wire supply module 4 fixed on the cable arrangement module 5 to the follower disk 3, or remove the wire supply module 4 fixed on the follower disk 3. The control accuracy does not need to be too high, and the positioning accuracy less than 0.05mm can meet the requirements.

[0043] 4) Supply module 4

[0044] The function of the wire supply module 4 in the fully automatic fiber optic gyro winding machine is to provide the original optical fiber for the winding of the optical fiber ring. The optical fiber ring requires accurate and stable fiber feeding and strict tension control during the winding process. The wire supply module 4 is composed of a fiber release motor, a reducer, a tension control mechanism, a guide wheel, etc. The tension control mechanism is composed of a tension motor, a tension wheel, an encoding shaft, a swing rod, etc.

[0045] Working principle of the wire feeding module 4: the pay-off motor actively pays off the wire, and the tension control mechanism controls the tension during the fiber winding process and maintains the tension in the waiting state. The fiber winding tension is designed according to the fiber ring before winding, and the tension motor controls the winding tension by outputting current. Before winding, the system calculates the initial speed of the pay-off wheel according to the skeleton and fiber splitting ring parameters. During the fiber winding process, the controller adjusts the pay-off speed according to the real-time angle of the encoder at the tail of the tension motor, so as to achieve tension balance within a micro range. "Constant tension" winding of the fiber ring is realized.

[0046] When the wire supply module 4 is ready to supply wire, the wire supply module 4 needs to rotate synchronously with the moving disk 3 and the main shaft 1. During the rotation process, the centrifugal force generated by the rotation will cause the swing arm to swing back and forth. If it is not restricted, it will damage or break the optical fiber. Therefore, in this embodiment, a power-off brake is also added to the tail of the tension motor. In the state of waiting for wire supply, the power-off brake keeps the motor in the position before power-off, ensuring that the optical fiber is not damaged or broken.

[0047] 5) Auxiliary wiring module 6

[0048] Figure 1 In the figure, the auxiliary wiring module 6 refers to the auxiliary wiring mechanism that cooperates with the guide wheel wiring, which includes three parts: CCD detection system, rake wiring and glue coating system. After accurately guiding the optical fiber to the skeleton, the auxiliary wiring module 6 passes through CCD detection and rake wiring to cooperate with the guide wheel module to arrange the wire. During the fiber feeding process, the fiber is glued before winding through the glue groove 8 with a heating system. The auxiliary wiring module 6 is mainly composed of CCD, rake wiring shaft, CCD, rake lifting shaft, rake lifting shaft, rotating table, rake, CCD, light source, glue groove 8, glue groove 8 lifting, glue groove 8 translation, glue injection system, heating system, etc.

[0049] The rake is one of the important submodules in the auxiliary cable arrangement module 6, which is mainly composed of the rake lifting shaft, rotating table, rake, floating guide block, etc. When the fiber winding starts, the rotating table rotates to the rake starting turn side to protect the fiber. After winding several turns (the distance from the end of this layer is about greater than the width of the rake itself), the fiber winding is paused, the rake lifting shaft rises a certain distance, and the rotating table rotates 180 degrees to the rake closing turn side to protect the fiber until the end of this layer. Because it is a glue winding method, there will be resistance and time lag when the rake is separated from the glue, and the floating guide block is added to quickly jump the layer.

[0050] Example 2

[0051] In this embodiment, the fiber optic gyroscope winding machine further includes:

[0052] Image information acquisition module (including light source and CDD, such as Figure 1 As shown), the module is arranged near the ring skeleton 7 to collect the optical fiber winding image on the ring skeleton 7 in all directions and in real time (avoiding missed detection due to blind spots in the field of vision);

[0053] The first analysis module is used to analyze in real time whether the currently wound optical fiber ring is standard based on the real-time collected optical fiber winding image. The process of using the first analysis module to analyze whether the currently wound optical fiber ring is standard can be summarized as follows:

[0054] Calculate the similarity between the target fiber winding image and the non-standard fiber winding image in the historical database (if there are multiple images in the historical data, take the highest similarity value), and record it as non-standard similarity;

[0055] Calculate the similarity between the target fiber winding image and the standard fiber winding image in the historical database (if there are multiple images in the historical data, take the highest similarity value), and record it as the standard similarity;

[0056] If the non-standard similarity is not less than the standard similarity, the currently wound optical fiber ring is considered to be non-standard.

[0057] Exemplarily, a pre-trained image recognition model may be used, and during the recognition process, the collected image data is used as a training sample to further train the model and improve the recognition accuracy of the model.

[0058] The electrical equipment comprises: a first alarm module, which is used to issue a first alarm message when the first analysis module determines that the currently wound optical fiber ring is not standard.

[0059] Furthermore, the fiber optic gyroscope winding machine also includes:

[0060] The second analysis module is used to determine whether the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2 rotate synchronously according to the angle information and the speed information. Specifically: 1) determine whether the angle information (rotation angle) of the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2 is consistent; 2) determine whether the speed information (rotation speed) of the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2 is consistent; if both are consistent, it means that the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2 rotate synchronously, otherwise the rotation is not synchronous. If the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2 rotate asynchronously, it means that there is a relative displacement between the wire supply module 4 and the winding frame 7 of the standby mechanism, and the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2 need to stop immediately to avoid damaging the optical fiber.

[0061] The electrical equipment comprises:

[0062] An angle information acquisition module, used for real-time acquisition of angle information of the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2; a speed information acquisition module, used for real-time acquisition of speed information of the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2; a second alarm module, used for issuing a second alarm message when the second analysis module determines that the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2 do not rotate synchronously;

[0063] Furthermore, the fiber optic gyroscope winding machine also includes:

[0064] The third analysis module is used to determine whether the tension value meets the preset tension requirement. The quality of the optical fiber ring is directly affected by the tension during the optical fiber winding and the tension change. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the tension change during the optical fiber winding process. If there is a situation that exceeds the expected tension value range, it needs to be adjusted in time.

[0065] The electrical equipment comprises:

[0066] The tension information acquisition module is used to collect the tension value of the optical fiber wound on the ring skeleton 7 in real time; the third alarm module is used to issue a third alarm message when the third analysis module determines that the tension value does not meet the preset tension requirement. Exemplarily, the tension information acquisition module includes a tension sensor, and the optical fiber is passed through the tension sensor to measure its tension before the ring skeleton 7 is rotated to rewind the fiber. In addition, the value of the encoding shaft at the tail of the tension motor included in the above-mentioned supply module 4 can also indirectly reflect the tension value of the optical fiber. As mentioned above, the optical fiber ring needs to maintain "constant tension" winding, that is, the fiber rewinding speed of the ring skeleton 7 needs to be equal to the fiber release speed of the supply module 4. Regardless of whether the fiber rewinding speed is greater than the fiber release speed or less than the fiber release speed, it will cause the tension wheel of the supply module 4 to deflect. After the angle change after the encoding shaft at the tail of the tension motor senses, it means that the tension value of the optical fiber does not meet the preset tension requirement.

[0067] The above three alarm modules send out different alarm messages for different operating faults.

[0072] S2. Based on the specification parameters and position of the winding frame 7, the height of the wire supply module 4 in the action mechanism is adjusted (the height difference between the wire supply module 4 and the winding frame 7 will affect the tension of the optical fiber and cause different winding obstacles);

[0076] Specifically, the two wire feeding mechanisms are named as the first wire feeding mechanism and the second wire feeding mechanism respectively; taking the quadrupole symmetrical winding method as an example, the specific winding process is as follows (please refer to Figure 2 to Figure 9 ):

[0077] Step 1: Wind the first layer of the optical fiber ring; use the first wire feeding mechanism as the action mechanism (the first wire feeding mechanism includes the first wire feeding module 41 and the first wire arranging module 51), the first wire feeding mechanism supplies optical fiber A to the ring skeleton 7, the second wire feeding mechanism is used as the standby mechanism (the second wire feeding mechanism includes the second wire feeding module 42 and the second wire arranging module 52), the main shaft 1 uses the axis as the rotation axis, and rotates in the opposite direction of the first wire feeding mechanism to wind the optical fiber A, while the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2 rotate, the first wire feeding mechanism moves along the axial direction of the main shaft 1, and the optical fiber A is arranged from the P end of the ring skeleton 7 to the Q end (such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 );

[0078] Step 2: Winding the second layer of the optical fiber ring; the first feeding mechanism is used as a standby mechanism, and the second feeding mechanism is used as an action mechanism. The second feeding mechanism supplies optical fiber B to the ring frame 7. The main shaft 1 uses the axis as the rotation axis and rotates in the opposite direction of the second feeding mechanism to wind the optical fiber B. While the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2 rotate, the second feeding mechanism moves along the axial direction of the main shaft 1, and the optical fiber B is wound from the P end of the ring frame 7 to the Q end (such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 );

[0079] Step 3: Winding the third layer of the optical fiber ring; the first wire feeding mechanism is used as a standby mechanism, and the second wire feeding mechanism is used as an action mechanism. The second wire feeding mechanism supplies optical fiber B to the ring frame 7. The main shaft 1 uses the axis as the rotation axis and rotates in the opposite direction of the second wire feeding mechanism to wind the optical fiber B. While the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2 rotate, the second wire feeding mechanism moves along the axial direction of the main shaft 1, and the optical fiber B is wound from the Q end of the ring frame 7 to the P end (such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 );

[0080] Step 4: Winding the fourth layer of the optical fiber ring; the first wire feeding mechanism is used as the action mechanism, the first wire feeding mechanism supplies optical fiber A to the ring frame 7, the second wire feeding mechanism is used as the standby mechanism, the main shaft 1 uses the axis as the rotation axis, and rotates in the opposite direction of the first wire feeding mechanism to wind up the optical fiber A, while the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2 rotate, the first wire feeding mechanism moves along the axial direction of the main shaft 1, and the optical fiber A is wound from the Q end of the ring frame 7 to the P end (such as Figure 8 and Fig. 9 ).

[0087] When the rotation speed of the main shaft 1 and the follower shaft 2 remains unchanged and the moving speed of the action mechanism remains unchanged, the fiber release speed of the action mechanism is reduced;

[0088] If the optical fiber ring is not standardized, it means that there are overlaps between adjacent turns of the same layer of the optical fiber ring on the ring frame 7.
