[0002] The straightness produced during the crankshaft forging process is affected by the material properties and machining accuracy.
[0003] Crankshaft straightness usually refers to the straightness of the crankshaft main journal and connecting rod journal. Specifically, the key positions to be measured include: Main journal: The straightness of the main journal is crucial to the balance and stability of the crankshaft; Connecting rod journal: The straightness of the connecting rod journal affects the smooth operation and power transmission of the engine.
[0004] Announcement No. CN211425321U discloses a straightness detection device, including a base, on which are arranged two first detection needles and at least one second detection needle, the first detection needle and the second detection needle are located on a straight line; the second detection needle is slidably connected to the base, and the straightness detection device also includes elastic components that are equal to and one-to-one correspond to the second detection needles, one end of the elastic component is connected to the base, and the other end is connected to the corresponding second detection needle, so as to apply a force to the second detection needle in the direction of the second detection needle head, so as to maintain the second detection needle extending outward to a degree exceeding the connecting line between the two first detection needle heads, and the excess degree is a set distance.
[0005] Announcement No. CN110319754B discloses a forging straightness inspection tool and a method for using the same. The forging straightness inspection tool comprises a base, a clamping mechanism, a detection mechanism and an auxiliary support mechanism. The base is provided with a vertically upward support frame (57). The clamping mechanism and the detection mechanism are movably connected to the support frame (57) in sequence from bottom to top. The auxiliary support mechanism is arranged on the base and movably connected to the base. The auxiliary support mechanism is provided with a movable support arc. The application uses the clamping mechanism and the auxiliary support mechanism to quickly detect the straightness of long shaft forgings such as crankshafts of various models and sizes.
[0006] Since the crankshaft is characterized by an asymmetric and irregular complex structure, and the straightness of the crankshaft is divided into the straightness of the main journal and the straightness of the connecting rod journal, and the existing straightness measurements are all manual measurements, such as the above two solutions for detecting straightness, which use a combination of multiple gauges to realize the detection of crankshaft straightness, and there is no direct connection between the gauge and the crankshaft.

[0030] The above explanation does not completely include the relationship definitions given in the present invention, but only represents a part of the present invention.
[0031] The invention provides a crankshaft straightness measuring device based on marine crankshaft forging, which is used for detecting the straightness of a main journal and a connecting rod journal in a crankshaft, thereby avoiding the accuracy problem between a gauge and a crankshaft caused by manual installation of a gauge, and improving the efficiency of crankshaft straightness detection.
[0032] See also Figure 1-2 As shown, in one embodiment, the measuring device includes: The base 1 is placed on the ground, the crankshaft is located on the upper part of the base 1, and the bottom of the base 1 is set to be integrated or split according to the size of the crankshaft to be detected. The bottom of the base 1 is equipped with supporting feet, which are arranged at the four corners of the base 1. The supporting feet are equipped with pressure detection sensors 54 to detect the pressure on the base 1, and determine the parallelism of the base 1 through the pressure; Also includes: A connecting frame 2 is installed on the upper part of the base 1. The crankshaft is arranged inside the connecting frame 2 and the axis of the crankshaft main journal is in the same straight line with the connecting frame 2. Centering units 3 are arranged at both ends of the connecting frame 2. The centering units 3 support the crankshaft so that the connecting frame 2 and the crankshaft main journal are coaxial. The driving device 4 drives the crankshaft to rotate and adjust to different angles directly or through the centering unit 3.
[0033] The detection component 5 is arranged inside the connecting frame 2, and is fitted to the main journal and the connecting rod journal when the straightness of the crankshaft main journal and the connecting rod journal is detected. A medium is arranged inside the detection component 5 and the straightness of the crankshaft is determined according to the change of the medium pressure. The detection component 5 can also change the detection area according to the length of the main journal and the connecting rod journal. The detection component 5 cooperates with the driving device 4 to perform straightness detection at different angles of the crankshaft; The connecting assembly 6 is arranged between the connecting frame 2 and the detection assembly 5. The connecting assembly 6 is used to support the detection assembly 5 to fit the main journal and the connecting rod journal and adjust the position of the detection assembly 5 when the crankshaft changes its angle.
[0034] In one practicable manner, the existing crankshafts are all fixed when performing straightness testing, that is, the position of the crankshaft will not be adjusted when performing straightness testing on the crankshaft, and only one position of the crankshaft is tested, so that relatively complete straightness data cannot be obtained.
[0035] Among them, by using the medium pressure change set inside the detection component 5 to perform straightness detection, the straightness change within the range of one end can be obtained, and a larger straightness change detection range can be obtained. In the process of detection, corresponding adjustments can be made according to the length of the main journal and the connecting rod journal, so that the measuring device can be applicable to a larger main journal and connecting rod journal range.
[0036] During the crankshaft straightness detection process, the crankshaft will adjust its angular position. In order to ensure that the detection component 5 can stably contact the outer surface of the connecting rod journal when the connecting rod journal rotates, the connecting component 6 will determine the swing state of the connecting rod journal while supporting the detection component 5 to ensure stable contact with the connecting rod journal.
[0037] See also Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the connecting frame 2 is a split type, and the connecting frame 2 is composed of a plurality of arc structures 21, the arc structures 21 are plugged into each other through guide rods 22, and connection units 23 marked with scales are arranged between the arc structures 21; The connecting unit 23 includes a rotatable knob 231, an adjusting rod 232 connecting adjacent arc structures 21, and a connecting member 233 connecting the knob 231 and the adjusting rod 232. The knob 231 drives the connecting member 233 to move, and the adjusting rod 232 is used to adjust the spacing distance between adjacent arc nodes.
[0038] Optionally, the knob 231 is a bidirectional threaded sleeve, the connecting piece 233 is a thread set at one end of the adjusting rod 232, the adjusting rod 232, the thread and the threaded sleeve are coaxially arranged, and the threaded sleeve rotates to change the outward extension length of the adjusting rod 232, and the scale position adjusts the outer wall of the rod 232.
[0039] Alternatively, the connecting member 233 is a splint hinged on the end of the adjusting rod 232 away from the arc structure 21, and a hollow rhombus block is arranged on the outer side of the splint, which is sleeved on the outer side of the adjusting rod 232 and used to wrap the splint. The knob 231 passes through the rhombus block, and a two-way thread is arranged at a position inside the rhombus block. The outer side of the two-way thread is sleeved on the clamping block, and the splint is located inside the recess of the clamping block and changes its angle according to the clamping block. The change in angle of the splint drives the adjusting rod 232 to extend and retract.
[0040] In an optional embodiment, the arc structure 21 is a disconnected mounting ring, the connecting assembly 6 is located on the inner side of the mounting ring, and each mounting ring corresponds to a main journal or connecting rod journal, and the guide rod 22 and the adjusting rod 232 are set as a detachable connection method, which can be freely combined when detecting different numbers of main journals and connecting rod journals.
[0041] See also Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the centering unit 3 includes at least three top frames 31 arranged toward the crankshaft axis, the ends of the top frames 31 are support members 32, and an adjustment ring 33 is arranged on the outside of the top frames 31. The adjustment ring 33 is coaxially arranged with the connecting frame 2, and the adjustment ring 33 rotates to change the telescopic length of the top frame 31.
[0042] In one feasible manner, an arc block is disposed on the inner side of the adjusting ring 33 with the same number as the top frame 31, a rotatable elastic roller is disposed on the inner side of the arc block, an arc groove is correspondingly disposed on the top frame 31, and the top frame 31 is connected to the connecting frame 2 via a tension spring. The adjusting ring 33 rotates to change the telescopic length of the top frame 31 by utilizing the arc block. Under the action of the tension spring, the top frame 31 squeezes the elastic roller, thereby increasing the friction of the elastic roller and ensuring the stability of the adjusting ring 33.
[0043] Optionally, the support member 32 is a wheel body, the wheel body contacts the surface of the crankshaft, and the driving device 4 is connected to one end of the crankshaft to drive the crankshaft to rotate.
[0044] See also Figure 5-9 as well as Figure 11-13 As shown, in one embodiment, the detection component 5 includes: The detection frame 51 is installed outside the connection assembly 6. A cavity 52 is symmetrically arranged inside the detection frame 51. The cavity 52 is bendable. The cavity 52 is bent to a fixed bending arc and angle. Changing the bending position of the cavity 52 does not affect the medium pressure inside the cavity 52. The inner side of the support wheel 53 is in contact with the cavity 52, and the cavity 52 is located at the bend of the inner wall of the support wheel 53; A pressure detection sensor 54 is disposed at both ends of the cavity 52 to obtain the pressure change of the medium inside the cavity 52. The pressure detection sensor 54 can move with the cavity 52; The detection end 55 is disposed between the cavities 52 . The detection end 55 extends toward the outside of the detection frame 51 and contacts the main journal or the connecting rod journal. The longer the extension distance of the detection end 55 is, the greater the squeezing force on the cavity 52 is.
[0045] In an optional embodiment, the support wheel 53 is configured to limit the bending angle of the cavity 52. Therefore, when the bending position of the cavity 52 changes, the bending state of the cavity 52 is consistent. Therefore, the medium pressure inside the cavity 52 will not change, and when the pressure detection sensor 54 performs pressure detection on the inside of the cavity 52 to determine the straightness, it can be more accurate.
[0046] Since the outward extension length of the detection end 55 corresponds to the different extrusion pressures applied to the cavity 52, the pressure inside the cavity 52 detected by the pressure detection sensor 54 is also different. The surface straightness state of the crankshaft is determined based on the pressure change state detected by the pressure detection sensor 54.
[0047] See also Figure 11-12 As shown, in one embodiment, the detection component 5 further includes: The extension plate 56 is telescopically arranged inside the detection frame 51, and a support frame 57 is arranged outside the extension plate 56 to improve the rigidity of the extension plate 56. The extension plate 56 is attached to the detection frame 51, and the position where the detection frame 51 is attached to the extension plate 56 is set as an inclined surface, and the extension plate 56 is bent at the inclined surface position; The electromagnetic assembly 58 is disposed inside the detection frame 51. When powered on, the electromagnetic assembly 58 pushes one end of the extension plate 56 located inside the detection frame 51 to move outward, thereby changing the extension range of the extension plate 56. The support wheel 53 is disposed inside the extension plate 56 , and the extension plate 56 moves outward to drive the support wheel 53 to change the bending position of the cavity 52 .
[0048] In one practicable manner, the provision of the extension plate 56 enables the detection assembly 5 to obtain a larger detection range, which is suitable for the straightness detection of the crankshaft main journal and connecting rod journal of different specifications, and the extension plate 56 changes the position of the support wheel 53 during the movement, and the support wheel 53 changes the bending position of the cavity 52, and the end of the cavity 52 located inside the detection frame 51 drives the pressure detection sensor 54 to move. In addition, the end of the cavity 52 located inside the detection frame 51 can be adjusted in position by the extension plate 56.
[0049] The arrangement of the electromagnetic assembly 58 can change the length of the extension plate 56 during use, thereby controlling the coverage of the cavity 52 without manual adjustment.
[0050] See also Figure 8-9 as well as Fig.11 As shown, in one embodiment, the electromagnetic assembly 58 includes: The electromagnet 581 is fixed inside the detection frame 51. The extension plate 56 extends to one end of the electromagnet 581 to set a magnetic column 582. The magnetic columns 582 are attracted to each other, and the position of the magnetic column 582 is changed by the electromagnet 581. Card 583 is swingably arranged inside the detection frame 51. Card 583 is used to support the extension plate 56 and limit the extension plate 56. The middle part of card 583 is magnetically arranged. When the electromagnet 581 pushes the extension plate 56 outward by repelling the magnetic column 582, the card 583 is in a supporting state for the extension plate 56. When the electromagnet 581 magnetically attracts the magnetic column 582, the card 583 is opened and does not contact the extension plate 56.
[0051] In one feasible manner, a limiting groove is provided in the middle portion of the extension plate 56 for cooperating with the card 583 to form a limiting groove for limiting the extension plate 56. The limiting groove is triangular in shape. When the electromagnet 581 repels the magnetic column 582 and pushes the extension plate 56 outward, the card 583 cooperates with the limiting groove to prevent the extension plate 56 from retracting. When the electromagnet 581 magnetically attracts the magnetic column 582, the card 583 opens, allowing the extension plate 56 to retract stably.
[0052] The extension plate 56 is bendable, and the support frame 57 is telescopically installed inside the detection frame 51. The extension plate 56 extends outward and is restricted to be a flat plate by the support frame 57. The extension plate 56 extends outward and drives the support frame 57 to extend outward. The end of the extension plate 56 extending outward is fixedly connected to the support frame 57. When the extension plate 56 retracts, it can drive the support frame 57 to retract.
[0053] See also Figure 7 as well as Figure 9-10 As shown, in one embodiment, the detection end 55 includes: The detection head 551 is conically arranged between the cavities 52 , and a displacement sensor 552 is arranged at one end of the detection head 551 located inside the detection frame 51 , and the detection head 551 is inserted into the displacement sensor 552 ; The moving frame 553 is slidably disposed inside the detection frame 51, the displacement sensor 552 is installed inside the moving frame 553, and the detection head 551 and the moving frame 553 are supported by a spring 554; The guide rail 555 is installed on the outside of the detection frame 51 , and a pulling structure 556 is provided in the middle of the guide rail 555 for changing the position of the detection end 55 .
[0054] In one practicable manner, the pulling structure 556 is connected to the moving frame 553 , and under the pulling of the pulling structure 556 , the moving frame 553 slides and changes its position, and when it moves to the side of the main journal and the connecting rod journal, its position is restricted by the crankshaft.
[0055] Among them, the pulling structure 556 is set as a pulling rope, and a motor is configured at one end of the pulling rope to control the pulling rope, so as to change the position of the moving frame 553. During the movement of the moving frame 553, the detection head 551 slides on the outer surface of the main journal or the connecting rod journal to detect the flatness of the crankshaft.
[0056] See also Figure 13-16 As shown, in one embodiment, the connection component 6 includes: The mounting head 61 is connected to the detection frame 51. A pressure chamber 62 is arranged at one end of the mounting head 61 away from the detection frame 51. The pressure chamber 62 is filled with a medium.

[0057] In one feasible method, the detection frame 51 is installed on the outside of the mounting head 61, and the mounting head 61 is used to control the detection frame 51 to contact the main journal and connecting rod journal to be inspected. When the sizes of the main journals are different, it can also ensure that the detection component 5 stably fits the position to be inspected, thereby ensuring the stability of the position to be inspected.
[0058] See also Figure 13-14 As shown, in one embodiment, the connection component 6 further includes: The swing rod 65 is slidably arranged inside the arc structure 21, an elastic belt 66 is arranged between the swing rods 65 for pulling the swing rod 65, a pulling belt 67 is arranged outside the swing rod 65, and a servo motor 68 is installed on the arc structure 21 for winding the pulling belt 67; The swing rod 65 is hinged to the pressure chamber 62 , and the included angle formed between the swing rods 65 changes to adjust the height position change of the pressure chamber 62 .
