[0041] In the description of the present application, unless otherwise explicitly defined, the words such as setting, mounting, connecting and the like should be broadly understood, and the person skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above words in the present application in combination with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0042] The following will be described in combination with Figures 1 to 13 The embodiments of the present application are described.

[0043] As Figures 1-5 shown, the present embodiment relates to a high-precision gas bearing static characteristic test bench, which comprises an optical base 100, a detection table 200, a suspension bracket, a detection cylinder, a gas floating ball hinge 5, a pressure sensor 6, an upper floating bearing plate 7 and a laser interference measurement assembly.

[0044] Specifically, the detection table 200 is arranged on the optical base 100 and used for placing a gas bearing 26 workpiece; the suspension bracket is arranged on the optical base 100; the detection cylinder is arranged on the suspension bracket and located directly above the detection table 200; the gas floating ball hinge 5 is arranged at the driving end of the detection cylinder; the pressure sensor 6 is arranged at the bottom of the gas floating ball hinge 5; the upper floating bearing plate 7 is arranged at the bottom of the pressure sensor 6 and used for being pressed on the detection table 200; the laser interference measurement assembly is arranged between the lower surface of the upper floating bearing plate 7 and the upper surface of the optical base 100, and the laser interference measurement assembly is provided with at least two groups, and the at least two groups of laser interference measurement assemblies are distributed on both sides of the detection table 200. In the present embodiment, the laser interference measurement assembly is provided with four groups, and the four groups of laser interference measurement assemblies are not on the same horizontal straight line at the same time and are distributed on the four corners of the optical base 100, and are used for measuring the displacement and inclination of the lower surface of the upper floating bearing plate 7.

[0045] On the basis of the above structure, during testing, the gas bearing 26 is placed on the detection table 200, the detection table 200 is provided with a positioning column for positioning the gas bearing 26, and during operation, the detection cylinder drives the gas floating ball hinge 5, the pressure sensor 6 and the upper floating bearing plate 7 to press downward to the direction of the gas bearing 26, and the upper floating bearing plate 7 is pressed to the upper side of the gas bearing 26, so that the downward thrust of the detection cylinder and the upper floating force of the gas bearing 26 reach balance, and thus the upper floating force of the gas bearing 26 is measured by the pressure sensor 6, that is, the static bearing capacity of the gas bearing 26.

[0046] Wherein, considering that the upper and lower surfaces of the upper floating bearing plate 7 have parallelism error, there are certain problems in realizing parallelism self-adaptation by using mechanical ball hinge, and the mechanical ball hinge itself has friction and the like, which can cause that when the parallelism of the upper floating bearing plate 7 is below a certain value or the upper floating force difference of the corresponding area of the gas bearing 26 is below a certain value, the mechanical ball hinge cannot be started to move, that is, the mechanical ball hinge cannot sense the small difference of the upper floating force of the corresponding area of the measured gas bearing 26 or the small difference of the gas film 34 thickness, so that the self-adaptive parallelism cannot be completely realized, but only the self-adaptive parallelism in some cases can be realized; in addition, the mechanical ball hinge is easy to increase the stress difference of each part of the upper floating bearing plate 7, causing the gas film 34 thickness between the upper surface of the gas bearing 26 and the lower surface of the upper floating bearing plate 7 to be different, thereby reducing the measurement accuracy of the gas film 34 thickness, so that the test table adopts the gas floating ball hinge 5 to realize the complete self-adaptive parallelism between the lower surface of the upper floating bearing plate 7 and the upper surface of the gas bearing 26, the gas floating ball hinge 5 has no friction, thereby reducing the interference to the gas film 34 pressure distribution of the gas bearing 26, improving the measurement accuracy of the gas film 34 thickness, and then improving the accuracy of the relationship between the gas film 34 thickness and the static bearing capacity, so that the relationship between the static bearing capacity of the gas bearing 26 and the gas film 34 thickness can be more accurately obtained, that is, the static characteristics of the gas bearing 26 can be more accurately obtained;

[0047] Wherein, referring to the front and rear area and the left and right area of the detection table 200, the displacement amount of each part of the upper floating bearing plate 7 is measured by the four laser interference measurement assemblies, so that the left and right inclination and the front and rear inclination of the upper floating bearing plate 7 are calculated, and then the gas film 34 thickness difference of the left and right area and the front and rear area of the gas bearing 26 is obtained, that is, the pressure distribution difference of the left and right area and the front and rear area of the gas bearing 26 is obtained, so that the relationship between the left and right inclination and the front and rear inclination of the gas bearing 26 and the static bearing capacity or the gas film 34 thickness is obtained, that is, the inclination characteristics of the gas bearing 26 is obtained, and then the gas bearing 26 can be improved to realize lower left and right inclination and front and rear inclination, and the accuracy of the gas bearing 26 is improved.

[0048] Wherein, considering that the floating bearing plate 7 is subjected to the downward force of the detection cylinder and the upward force of the gas bearing 26 at the same time, resulting in the deformation of the floating bearing plate 7 itself, through the static simulation analysis of the floating bearing plate 7, it is known that the deformation of the upper surface of the floating bearing plate 7 is lower than that of the lower surface, the deformation of the lower surface of the floating bearing plate 7 is closer to the change of the thickness of the gas film 34, and the closer the measurement point of the laser interference measurement assembly to the edge of the gas film 34 between the upper surface of the gas bearing 26 and the lower surface of the floating bearing plate 7, the more accurate the measured thickness of the gas film 34 is, therefore, the laser interference measurement assembly is arranged as close as possible to the edge of the gas film 34 region in the horizontal plane, so as to improve the measurement accuracy of the thickness of the gas film 34.

[0049] As shown in Figure 6 , when the ideal situation that the upper and lower surfaces of the detection table 200, the gas bearing 26, the floating bearing plate 7 and the like do not have parallelism error, the force F2 measured by the pressure sensor 6 is equal to the upward force F1 of the gas bearing 26.

[0050] As shown in Figure 7 , in the actual situation that the upper and lower surfaces of the detection table 200, the gas bearing 26, the floating bearing plate 7 and the like have parallelism error, when the pressure sensor 6 is arranged between the adaptive parallel structure and the floating bearing plate 7 and follows the floating bearing plate 7, the force F2 measured by the pressure sensor 6 is equal to the upward force F1 of the gas bearing 26.

[0051] As shown in Figure 8 , in the actual situation that the upper and lower surfaces of the detection table 200, the gas bearing 26, the floating bearing plate 7 and the like have parallelism error, when the adaptive parallel structure is arranged between the pressure sensor 6 and the floating bearing plate 7, and the pressure sensor 6 cannot follow the floating bearing plate 7, the force F3 measured by the pressure sensor 6 is not equal to the upward force F1 of the gas bearing 26, thereby generating an upward force measurement error.

[0052] As shown in Figure 9 , when the gas bearing 26 is completely in the middle of the detection table 200 in the ideal situation, the combination of part of the adaptive parallel structure such as the gas floating ball hinge 5, the pressure sensor 6 and the floating bearing plate 7 will not be subjected to a moment, and the force F2 measured by the pressure sensor 6 is equal to the upward force F1 of the gas bearing 26.

[0053] As shown in Figure 10 , when the gas bearing 26 is not completely in the middle of the detection table 200, the combination of part of the adaptive parallel structure such as the gas floating ball hinge 5, the pressure sensor 6 and the floating bearing plate 7 will be subjected to a moment M1 generated by the upward force F1 of the gas bearing 26.

[0054] As shown in Figure 11As shown, when the combination of the adaptive parallel structure part, the pressure sensor 6, and the upper floating bearing plate 7 of the gas floating ball hinge 5 is subjected to the moment M1 generated by the upper floating force F1 of the gas bearing 26, the combination of the adaptive parallel structure part, the pressure sensor 6, and the upper floating bearing plate 7 will be tilted, which may cause the upper floating bearing plate 7 to collide with the gas bearing 26, resulting in damage. When mechanical limiting or other measures are taken to avoid collision, the force F2 measured by the pressure sensor 6 may not be equal to the upper floating force F1 of the gas bearing 26, and there is an error.

[0055] As shown in FIG. 1, when the detection table 200, the gas bearing 26, and the upper and lower surfaces of the upper floating bearing plate 7 do not have parallelism error, the force F2 measured by the pressure sensor 6 is equal to the upper floating force F1 of the gas bearing 26. Figure 12

[0056] As shown in FIG. 1, when the detection table 200, the gas bearing 26, and the upper and lower surfaces of the upper floating bearing plate 7 do not have parallelism error, the force F2 measured by the pressure sensor 6 is equal to the upper floating force F1 of the gas bearing 26. Figure 13 As shown in FIG. 1, when the detection table 200, the gas bearing 26, and the upper and lower surfaces of the upper floating bearing plate 7 do not have parallelism error, the force F2 measured by the pressure sensor 6 is equal to the upper floating force F1 of the gas bearing 26.

[0057] The present application adopts a frictionless gas floating ball hinge 5, and Mf=0, so as long as F11 is not equal to F12, even if F11 and F12 have very small differences, the adaptive parallel mechanism can be started to realize adaptive parallel, the sensitivity is high, and the measurement accuracy of the upper floating force of the gas bearing 26 and the thickness of the gas film 34 is high.

[0058] ​The test principle of the present application is explained as follows: the actual measurement of the laser interference measurement assembly is added to the static simulation deformation compensation to obtain the accurate gas film 34 thickness; the completely self-adaptive and accurate measurement of the static bearing capacity is realized through the frictionless air floating ball hinge 5; the inclination characteristics of the floating bearing plate 7 are measured through the laser interference measurement assembly. After obtaining the accurate static bearing capacity and the accurate gas film 34 thickness, the relationship between the accurate gas film 34 thickness and the static bearing capacity can be obtained, and the relationship between the static stiffness of the gas bearing 26 and the gas film 34 thickness can be obtained, and the relationship between the inclination of the gas bearing 26 and the static bearing capacity or the gas film 34 thickness, i.e. the inclination characteristics of the gas bearing 26, can be obtained, so that the partial static characteristics of the gas bearing 26 can be accurately evaluated.

[0059] As can be seen, the present application drives the floating bearing plate 7 to press the workpiece of the gas bearing 26 on the detection table 200 through the detection cylinder arranged on the suspension support, the floating force value of the gas bearing 26 is obtained through the pressure sensor 6, the completely self-adaptive is realized by using the frictionless characteristics of the air floating ball hinge 5, the ball hinge itself does not interfere with the characteristics of the gas bearing 26, the optical base 100 and the laser interference measurement assembly are arranged to obtain the accurate gas film 34 thickness, the relationship between the accurate gas film 34 thickness and the static bearing capacity can be obtained, and the relationship between the left and right and front and back inclination of the gas bearing 26 and the gas film 34 thickness or the bearing capacity, i.e. the inclination characteristics of the gas bearing 26, can be obtained, so that the partial static characteristics of the gas bearing 26 can be accurately evaluated.

[0060] The laser interference measurement assembly includes the corner cube prism 8 and the laser sensor 9, the laser sensor 9 and the corner cube prism 8 are mutually measured and matched, the corner cube prism 8 is arranged on the floating bearing plate 7, in the embodiment, the corner cube prism 8 is arranged on the lower side of the floating bearing plate 7, and the laser sensor 9 is arranged on the optical base 100 through the position self-adaptive adjusting mechanism. In the above structure, when the floating bearing plate 7 appears left and right inclination, front and back inclination and the like during detection, the corner cube prism 8 arranged on the floating bearing plate 7 also appears left and right inclination, front and back inclination and the like, and then the measurement error between the laser sensor 9 and the corner cube prism 8 appears, so that the position self-adaptive adjusting mechanism is arranged to automatically adjust the position of the laser sensor 9 according to the position of the corner cube prism 8 under the adjustment of the position self-adaptive adjusting mechanism, so that the laser sensor 9 and the corner cube prism 8 realize accurate measurement matching. It should be noted that the position of the laser sensor 9 can be adjusted in real time according to the position of the corner cube prism 8 under the adjustment of the position self-adaptive adjusting mechanism, or the position of the laser sensor 9 is adjusted after the corner cube prism 8 deviates.

In use, firstly, the vertical support 31 can be used for horizontal rotation relative to the coupling base 30 to drive the first horizontal support 32, the second horizontal support 33 and the laser sensor 9 to horizontally rotate, so that the horizontal rotary movement of the laser sensor 9 is realized; secondly, the first horizontal support 32 can be used for left-right rotary swing relative to the vertical support 31 to drive the second horizontal support 33 and the laser sensor 9 to left-right rotary swing, so that the left-right rotary swing movement of the laser sensor 9 is realized; and thirdly, the second horizontal support 33 can be used for front-back rotary swing relative to the first horizontal support 32 to drive the laser sensor 9 to front-back rotary swing, so that the front-back rotary swing movement of the laser sensor 9 is realized. It should be noted that the vertical support 31, the first horizontal support 32 and the second horizontal support 33 can be moved individually, jointly or two of them can be moved jointly, and the movement mode is not limited. As can be seen, under the adjustment of the adaptive coupling adjusting device, the horizontal rotary movement, the left-right rotary swing movement and the front-back rotary swing movement of the laser sensor 9 can be realized individually, partially or jointly to meet the position adjustment requirement of the laser sensor 9.

[0070] The suspension support comprises a first support plate 300 arranged on the optical base 100 and a first mounting plate 4 arranged on the top of the first support plate 300, and the first mounting plate 4 is located above the detection table 200. The high-precision gas bearing 26 static characteristic test table further comprises an angle adjusting mechanism, and the optical base 100 is further provided with a bearing support assembly, the bearing support assembly comprises a second mounting plate 20, a guide shaft 21, a linear bearing 22 and a second support plate 23, the second support plate 23 is arranged on the optical base 100, the second mounting plate 20 is arranged on the top of the second support plate 23, the second mounting plate 20 is located below the first mounting plate 4, the guide shaft 21 is arranged above the second mounting plate 20, the linear bearing 22 is arranged below the second mounting plate 20, the detection cylinder is arranged above the first mounting plate 4, and the driving end of the detection cylinder is connected with the gas floating ball hinge 5 in sequence through the guide shaft 21, the second mounting plate 20 and the linear bearing 22, so that the driving end of the detection cylinder is affected by the guide shaft 21 and the linear bearing 22 when moving, thereby ensuring the test precision of the equipment. The detection cylinder is a balance cylinder 24, thereby further ensuring the test precision of the equipment.

[0071] The angle adjusting mechanism comprises at least two groups, and the at least two groups of angle adjusting mechanisms are distributed on both sides of the detection table 200. In the embodiment, the angle adjusting mechanism comprises four groups, and the angle adjusting mechanism comprises an adjusting motor 27 arranged on the second mounting plate 20, a precision lead screw 28 arranged on the adjusting motor 27 and an adjusting sliding block 29 arranged on the precision lead screw 28. The adjusting sliding block 29 slides along the guide of the precision lead screw 28 to press down or move away from the upper floating bearing plate 7. On the basis of the above structure, the inclination of the upper floating bearing plate 7 is detected and judged by the laser interference measurement assembly. When the inclination occurs, the position of the upper floating bearing plate 7 is adjusted by the angle adjusting mechanism. Specifically, the position is adjusted by sliding the adjusting sliding block 29 along the guide of the precision lead screw 28 to press down or move away from the upper floating bearing plate 7. For example, when the inclination of the upper floating bearing plate 7 causes one side to be too high, the adjusting sliding block 29 is used to press down the upper floating bearing plate 7 to adjust the position. When the position does not need to be adjusted, the adjusting sliding block 29 is moved away from the upper floating bearing plate 7 to avoid measurement motion interference.

[0072] When the laser interference measurement assembly is provided with four groups, two groups of laser interference measurement assemblies are arranged in front of the detection table 200, and the other two groups of laser interference measurement assemblies are arranged behind the detection table 200. Considering that the load capacity of the gas bearing 26 is different with the change of the gas film 34 thickness, thereby causing the deformation of the floating bearing plate 7 and the detection table 200 to be different, the deformation of the floating bearing plate 7 and the detection table 200 is obtained by static simulation of the floating bearing plate 7 and the detection table 200 under different load capacities, and the deformation obtained by simulation is used to compensate the gas film 34 thickness measured by the four laser interference measurement assemblies, so that the gas film 34 thickness is obtained with sufficient accuracy.

[0073] The thickness of the gas film 34 between the upper surface of the gas bearing 26 and the lower surface of the floating bearing plate 7 is obtained by averaging the distances measured by the four laser interference measurement assemblies. The distances of the four points can obtain three degrees of freedom of the floating bearing plate 7, i.e. Z-direction movement, rotation around X-direction and rotation around Y-direction. The Z-direction movement can obtain the change of the gas film 34 thickness, and the rotation around X-direction and the rotation around Y-direction can judge the symmetry of the load capacity distribution of the gas bearing 26, and more accurately evaluate the static performance of the gas bearing 26.

[0078] S4, obtain the deformation data by static simulation of the floating bearing plate 7;

[0079] S5, compensate the average thickness value by the deformation data to obtain the accurate thickness value;

[0080] S6, judge the static load capacity of the gas bearing 26 by the floating force value, analyze the relationship between the static load capacity of the gas bearing 26 and the gas film 34 thickness, the relationship between the front and rear and left and right inclination of the gas bearing 26 and the gas film 34 thickness and the load capacity, and judge the static characteristics of the gas bearing 26.

[0081] Therefore, the application measures and obtains the pressure sensor 6 value through the pressure sensor 6, judges the static load capacity of the gas bearing 26, measures and obtains the gas film 34 thickness value of the gas bearing 26 through the laser interference measurement assembly and judges the inclination of the lower surface of the floating bearing plate 7, then compensates the average thickness value through the deformation data to obtain the accurate thickness value, analyzes the relationship between the static load capacity of the gas bearing 26 and the gas film 34 thickness, analyzes the relationship between the inclination of the gas bearing 26 and the static load capacity or the gas film 34 thickness, and judges the static characteristics of the gas bearing 26.
