The diameter of the connecting hole 131 is smaller than the diameter of the shaft body 11, so that the butterfly-shaped spring piece 13 and the shaft body 11 are interference-fitted; the other end of the butterfly-shaped spring piece 13 is fastened to the shaft seat 12 through a connecting piece 14, and a plurality of oil storage grooves 132 are provided on the inner wall of the butterfly-shaped spring piece 13. The oil storage grooves 132 are filled with lubricating oil to provide lubrication when the fixed part 2 and the movable part 3 rotate relative to each other; The shaft seat 12 is used to position the movable part 3 and provide holes for connecting the shaft body 11 and the butterfly-shaped spring piece 13; one end of the connecting piece 14 is fixed to the shaft seat 12 and the other end is connected to the base of the butterfly-shaped spring piece 13 to form an axial constraint; the shaft body 11 is axially penetrated into the connecting hole 131 of the butterfly-shaped spring piece 13, and has an interference fit with the butterfly-shaped spring piece 13 to produce adjustable damping, and the end extends to the external fixing part 2, and the end is provided with a screw thread and a flat knurling structure, which is used for threaded connection with the fixing part 2 and anti-loosening fixation; the butterfly-shaped spring piece 13 is located between the shaft seat 12 and the movable part 3, is sleeved on the outer periphery of the shaft body 11 and cooperates with the shaft body 11, provides damping force through elastic deformation, and has a built-in oil storage tank 132 to store lubricating oil, which is used to reduce friction with the shaft body 11, reduce friction noise and extend service life.

[0023] Use a laser projector to project the designed shaft hole point of the shaft seat 12 onto the work surface, align and place the shaft hole 121 of the shaft seat 12 according to the designed shaft hole point, and fix the position of the shaft seat 12 with a fixture; Traditional methods rely on manual marking and positioning, which is prone to errors due to human factors. The present invention uses laser-assisted positioning of the shaft seat 12, and programmed guided operation to avoid human errors, which can ensure that the shaft hole 121 of the shaft seat 12 is accurately aligned with the designed position, with fast positioning speed and high positioning accuracy, reducing human operation errors and improving assembly consistency and reliability. In addition, the laser projection system can adapt to different types of targets, including planes, curved surfaces, transparent objects, small objects or oversized objects, and can quickly and accurately position on complex, special-shaped structural parts or surfaces, improving production flexibility and reducing assembly difficulty caused by the complexity of the workpiece.

[0024] S2, gradient pressure assembly hinge: fasten the butterfly spring piece 13 to the shaft seat 12 through the connecting piece 14, use a servo press to apply pressure in stages to insert the shaft body 11 into the connecting hole 131 of the butterfly spring piece 13, the shaft hole 121 of the shaft seat 12, the movable part 3 and the fixed part 2 in sequence, and use a displacement sensor and a force sensor to monitor the axial displacement and pressure of the shaft body 11 in real time, and use laser alignment technology to automatically calibrate the coaxiality, wherein the butterfly spring piece 13, the shaft seat 12 and the movable part 3 are all connected to the shaft body 11 so that they can rotate relative to each other, and the fixed part 2 is fixedly connected to the end of the shaft body 11, completing the assembly of the interference fit hinge 1; By applying pressure in stages, it is possible to ensure that the interference fit between the shaft body 11 and the butterfly spring piece 13, the shaft seat 12 and the movable part 3 is tighter and more stable, thereby improving the assembly quality, avoiding excessive pressure at one time, and reducing damage to components; the servo press applies pressure in three stages to avoid excessive pressure at one time and reduce damage to components, specifically the initial centering stage, the main body pressing stage and the final pressure stage. In the initial centering stage, 5% of the rated pressure is applied to ensure that the shaft body 11 is aligned with the connecting hole 131 of the butterfly spring piece 13; in the main body pressing stage, 50%-80% of the rated pressure is applied at a uniform speed to ensure that the shaft body 11 is smoothly inserted into the connecting hole 131 of the butterfly spring piece 13, the shaft hole 121 of the shaft seat 12, the movable part 3 and the fixed part 2; in the final pressure stage, 100% of the rated pressure is applied and maintained for more than 2 seconds to ensure the tightness of the interference fit.

[0025] S3, lubricating oil injection: inject a set amount of lubricating oil into the oil storage tank 132 through a micro-metering pump, and use an ultrasonic sensor to detect the oil level, and trigger an alarm when the oil level exceeds the tolerance; S4. Damping torque signal acquisition: After assembly, the interference fit hinge 1 is rotated at a constant speed by a servo motor, and the original damping torque signal X of the entire rotation process is collected by a non-contact torque sensor installed between the servo motor and the interference fit hinge 1 at a set frequency f. i (i=1, 2....n), n is the number of collected signals; S5, signal filtering: the original damping torque signal X iPerform sliding average filtering to obtain the filtered damping torque signal M k , eliminate high-frequency noise and draw the damping torque curve, and calculate the filtered damping torque signal M k The standard deviation SD(t) is calculated and compared with the set standard deviation threshold SD' to evaluate whether the current assembly quality of the interference fit hinge 1 is qualified; S6, PID algorithm adjustment: According to the degree to which the standard deviation SD(t) exceeds the set standard deviation threshold SD', the PID algorithm is used to calculate the adjustment target of the next interference fit hinge 1, and the pressure application speed v of the servo press is adjusted until the damping torque signal M k The standard deviation SD(t) meets the requirements.

[0026] The working principle of the interference fit hinge 1 of the present invention is as follows: when no operating force is applied, static friction is generated between the butterfly spring piece 13 and the shaft body 11 due to the interference fit, and this friction is large enough to prevent the shaft body 11 from rotating on its own when no external force is applied; when the applied operating force exceeds the static friction, the hinge starts to rotate, and the friction resistance generated by the interference fit between the butterfly spring piece 13 and the shaft body 11 becomes the dominant factor. The elastic properties of the material of the butterfly spring piece 13 cause it to produce elastic deformation during the interference fit, resulting in the butterfly spring piece 13 being deformed against the shaft body 11. The shaft 11 generates a continuous normal pressure, that is, a force perpendicular to the surface of the shaft 11. The existence of the normal pressure forms a stable dynamic friction torque between the butterfly spring 13 and the shaft 11. The dynamic friction torque is the torque that hinders the rotation of the shaft 11. Due to the elastic deformation of the butterfly spring 13 and the continuous normal pressure, the hinge can always hold the shaft 11 tightly and maintain close contact even during rotation, thereby providing a stable and controllable damping effect, so that the hinge can absorb energy during rotation, slow down the movement speed, and achieve a damping effect.

[0027] Compared with other types of interference fit hinges 1 on the market, the interference fit hinge 1 of the present invention uses the butterfly spring piece 13 with an internal oil storage tank 132 to complete the interference fit with the shaft body 11, reducing the oil storage gaskets arranged between the butterfly spring pieces 13, reducing the types and number of parts, making the assembly process more convenient, reducing the potential risk of oil leakage of the oil storage gasket, improving the reliability and stability of the hinge, and improving production efficiency; secondly, the oil storage tank 132 is directly arranged on the inner wall of the butterfly spring piece 13 that is interference fit with the shaft body 11, that is, the oil storage tank 132 is directly adjacent to the contact surface between the butterfly spring piece 13 and the shaft body 11, and the lubricating oil can be quickly exchanged between the contact surface and the oil storage tank 132, so as to quickly lubricate the area where the shaft body 11 and the butterfly spring piece 13 complete the relative rotation. Compared with the lubrication method using oil storage gaskets arranged at intervals, the lubrication effect of the present invention can fully cover the interference fit area, ensuring that the contact surface is always in a good lubrication state, making the hinge smoother during use, providing stable damping torque and performance, and having higher cost-effectiveness in long-term use.

[0028] The assembly method of the present invention uses a non-contact torque sensor to collect the damping torque signal of the assembled interference fit hinge 1 in real time, and processes the original damping torque signal through a sliding average filter to eliminate high-frequency noise, more accurately reflect the actual performance of the current interference fit hinge 1, and calculate the standard deviation SD(t) of the damping torque signal after filtering. According to the degree to which the standard deviation SD(t) exceeds the set standard deviation threshold SD', the PID algorithm is combined to calculate the adjustment target of the next interference fit hinge 1. The PID algorithm dynamically adjusts the pressure application speed v of the servo press through the comprehensive effect of the three links of proportion, integration and differentiation until the damping torque signal M k The standard deviation SD(t) meets the requirements. The dynamic control of the assembly process of a batch of interference fit hinges 1 is realized to ensure that the hinges assembled subsequently remain consistent in assembly quality, avoiding the traditional hinge assembly method in which assembly parameters are adjusted based on manual experience. Once quality problems are found, a large number of unqualified hinges have often been produced, which has a very serious lag and leads to waste of resources and increased costs. The assembly method of the present invention can also improve the degree of automation and production efficiency of the entire production process, reduce errors that may be caused by manual intervention, further improve the quality stability of the product, and enhance the competitiveness of the product in the market.

[0029] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in step S1 , the type of clamp is selected according to the material properties of the shaft seat 12 , including magnetic clamping, mechanical clamping or vacuum adsorption clamping.

[0030] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the sampling frequency f of the non-contact torque sensor is ≥ 1 kHz, and the standard deviation threshold is set to 0.2 N·m.

[0031] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the sliding average filtering process in step S5 is specifically as follows: caching the first N original damping torque signals X1, X2, ..., X N , calculate the first filtered damping torque signal M N :

[0032] Every time a new original damping torque signal X is collected k , add it to the window queue, and remove the oldest original damping torque signal X in the window k−N+1 , the arithmetic mean of the N data in the calculation window is updated to the filtered damping torque signal M k , the filtered damping torque signal M k The following relationship is satisfied:

[0033] Where M k is the damping torque signal after the kth filter, N is the size of the sliding window, X i is the i-th original damping torque signal; When the number of original damping torque signals Xi collected in the initial stage is less than N, that is, k<N, the filtered damping torque signal M in the initial stage is obtained by partial averaging. k , satisfying the following relationship:

[0034] In the process of collecting damping torque signals, the original signals will be subject to various interferences, such as mechanical vibration, electromagnetic interference, etc., resulting in high-frequency noise in the signals. These high-frequency noises will affect the accuracy and stability of the signals, and thus affect the evaluation of hinge performance. Through sliding average filtering, high-frequency noise can be effectively eliminated, making the filtered damping torque signal smoother and more stable. The sliding average filter reduces the random error of a single data point by calculating the average value of multiple data points in the window, and reduces signal fluctuations caused by accidental factors. The filtered signal is more reliable and can more truly reflect the damping characteristics of the hinge. This helps to improve the evaluation accuracy of assembly quality and ensure that the performance of each hinge meets the design requirements.

[0035] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the PID algorithm in step S6 controls the pressure application speed v of the servo press, which specifically includes the following steps: S61. Calculate the error between the standard deviation SD(t) and the set standard deviation threshold SD': e(t)=SD(t)−SD' When e(t) < 0, no PID optimization is required.

Therefore, it is necessary to immediately stop the adjustment and assembly operations to check whether the dimensions of the shaft 11 and the butterfly spring 13 are qualified; the over-limit threshold e(max) is the maximum allowable error value between the standard deviation SD(t) and the set standard deviation threshold SD', and the design threshold is the interference design requirement of the interference fit hinge during the assembly process; S62, Initialize PID parameters: Initialize and set the parameters of the PID control algorithm, including the proportional constant K p , integration constant K i , differential constant K d ; S63, calculate the control quantity according to the PID control algorithm:

[0036] Where, Output(t) is the PID output value, K p is the proportionality constant, K i is the integration constant, K d is the differential constant; S64, adjusting the pressure application speed: adjusting the pressure application speed v of the servo press according to the PID output value Output(t); S65, real-time monitoring and feedback: real-time monitoring of the standard deviation SD of the damping torque signal, and feedback to the PID controller for closed-loop control. According to the actual control effect, the parameter K of the PID control algorithm is gradually adjusted. p , K i and K d , in order to achieve the best control effect.

[0037] By calculating the error value e(t) between the standard deviation SD(t) and the set standard deviation threshold SD', the assembly quality of the current interference fit hinge 1 is quantitatively evaluated. The standard deviation is an important indicator to measure the degree of signal fluctuation and reflects the damping performance of the hinge. According to the size of the error value e(t), the PID algorithm is used to dynamically adjust the assembly parameters, where the proportional constant K p Determines the system's response speed to errors, the integral constant K i Static error can be eliminated, differential constant Kd The changing trend of the error can be predicted, and the control quantity Output(t) can be calculated through the comprehensive effect of the three links of proportion, integration and differentiation to adjust the pressure application speed v of the servo press to ensure the subsequent assembly quality of the interference fit hinge 1.
