[0003] The original measurement technology uses two sets of measuring tools (spanwise measurement and chordwise measurement) to measure the chordwise center of mass and spanwise center of mass of the blade respectively at one time. It has poor clamping accuracy, high operation difficulty and poor measurement repeatability. Summary of the invention

[0045] Use a jig to make the 25% chord plane horizontal and the center of mass C(x, y) in the XY plane;
[0046] The center of the rotating platform of the centroid measurement equipment is the zero point O, and the straight line passing through the zero point and perpendicular to the XY plane is the rotation axis, the Z axis;
[0047] The distance between the center of mass and the part is l;
[0048] The blade rotates counterclockwise around the Z axis by α, and the center of mass is located at A (point 1). The blade rotates clockwise around the Z axis by α, and the center of mass is located at B (point 2).
[0049] The angle between OC and -X axis is θ, and the angle between AB and -X axis is Φ;
[0050] From the geometric relationship, we can know that:
[0051] X=-lcosθ, y=lsinθ;——①
[0052] Since AB⊥OC, we know
[0053] Depend on have to
[0054] solid
[0055] consider Combining formula ①, we get
[0056] So far, the relative position of the center of mass C(x, y) relative to the zero point O in the XY plane is obtained by solving equation ②:
[0057] Step 2: Calculate the spanwise center of mass of the composite blade based on the relative position of the center of mass C(x, y) relative to the zero point O in the XY plane;
[0058] Specifically, step 2 includes:
[0059] Step 21: Obtain the difference x1 between the bushing pin of the blade center of mass measuring device and the spanwise position (X axis) of the rotation axis;
[0060] Step 22: Obtain the difference x2 between the bushing pin of the blade mass center measuring device and the spanwise position (X axis) of the rotor rotation center;
[0061] Step 23: Use the formula x+x1+x2 to calculate the spanwise center of mass of the composite blade, where x is the X-axis coordinate of the center of mass C in the XY plane.
[0062] Step 3: Calculate the spanwise static moment of the composite blade based on the relative position of the center of mass C(x, y) relative to the zero point O in the XY plane;
[0063] Specifically, step 3 includes:
[0064] Step 31: Obtain the difference x1 between the bushing pin of the blade centroid measuring device and the spanwise position (X axis) of the rotation axis;
[0065] Step 32: Obtain the difference x2 between the bushing pin of the blade mass center measurement device and the spanwise position (X axis) of the rotor rotation center;

[0067] Step 33: Calculate the spanwise static moment of the composite blade using the formula (x+x1+x2)*m.
[0068] Step 4: Calculate the chord-wise center of mass of the composite blade based on the relative position of the center of mass C(x, y) relative to the zero point O in the XY plane.

[0072] It should be noted that the principle of step 2 is:
[0073] The blades are clamped and positioned using root fixtures and profiling blocks.
[0074] The difference x1 between the spanwise position (X axis) of the bushing pin and the rotation axis is known, and the difference y1 between the front edge stopper of the profiling block and the chordwise position (Y axis) of the rotation axis is known;
[0075] In addition, the difference x2 between the bushing pin and the spanwise position (X axis) of the rotor rotation center is known;
[0076] therefore,
[0077] Spanwise centroid = x + x1 + x2; ——③
[0078] Spanwise static moment = (x+x1+x2)*m, where m is the blade mass, which is weighed by a high-precision electronic scale and then input;
[0079] Chordal mass center = y + y1. ——④
[0080] At this point, the blade spanwise static moment, spanwise center of mass and chordwise center of mass have all been measured.
[0081] Specifically, under the premise that the composite blades are in the same weight class, the center of mass of composite blades of different models can be tested by replacing the root fixture, contour block, and tip counterweight block corresponding to the composite blades, and modifying the normal parameters x1, x2, and y1.
[0082] It should be noted that when using a 10Kg-level blade center of mass measuring device to test the center of mass of a composite blade, when the composite blade is in the range of 0-10Kg, they are said to be in the same weight class; when using a 40Kg-level blade center of mass measuring device to test the center of mass of a composite blade, when the composite blade is in the range of 10-40Kg, they are said to be in the same weight class.
