Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of aircraft assembly manufacturing technology, but is not limited thereto, and in particular to a relative posture detection device and method for two aircraft covers of different large sizes. Background Art
[0002] The relative posture detection of two different large-sized covers on an aircraft is a necessary step before the two different large-sized covers are connected and assembled. The data such as the appearance parameters, seam gap and horizontal posture obtained by the detection are important supports for guiding the connection of different large components and are important means to ensure the accuracy of the relative posture relationship between different large components.
[0003] The traditional relative posture detection method for two different large-sized covers on an aircraft mainly uses laser measurement and test docking methods for detection. The laser measurement method can accurately identify the shape, end face and horizontal posture data of the large-sized cover, and can quickly guide the software algorithm and attitude adjustment mechanism to achieve the posture adjustment of the large component. However, its disadvantages are high cost and the need for repeated operations by personnel during the process, which places extremely high requirements on personnel accessibility. Most working conditions even require stepping on the surface of the large-sized cover product, causing product deformation and affecting measurement accuracy. In addition, operators constantly switch positions without ensuring safety measures, which poses a great safety risk. However, the test docking method, due to the lack of accurate data support, the docking process is repeated continuously, and personnel go back and forth to visually inspect various parts of the large component, which is extremely inefficient and greatly affects the docking quality and production progress. Summary of the invention

[0069] In this implementation example, the outer base 6 is a T-shaped structure, and the T-shaped end face is flush with the end face of the 1# large-size cover body 9. A positioning hole corresponding to the connection hole of the 1# large-size cover body 9 is arranged on the T-shaped end face. The upper surface of the outer base 6 is a plane parallel to the X direction, and the guide rail 7 slider parallel to the X direction is connected on the plane to connect the 1# distance measuring sensor 2 and the suction cup support 5. The three ends of the lower surface of the outer base 6 are consistent with and fit with the local shape of the 1# large-size cover body 9. A groove is provided in the middle area of the lower end face of the outer base 6, and the end face of the groove is parallel to the upper end face of the outer base 6. The sliding body 1 is a flat plate structure, which is connected to the outer base 6 through the guide rail 7. One end near the docking area is connected to the 2# distance measuring sensor 3, and the other end is provided with an elbow to cooperate with the 1# distance measuring sensor 2 to measure the sliding distance. A limiting structure is arranged in the middle area, and the upper surface is connected to the handle 8. The suction cup support 5 is a U-shaped structure, the bottom surface is connected to the upper surface of the outer base 6, and the left and right outer end surfaces are connected to the suction cup 4 structure.
[0070] In this implementation example, when the slider 1 installed on the 1# large-size cover body 9 slides close to the 2# large-size cover body 10, the 1# distance sensor 2 measures the sliding distance in real time and immediately feeds back the X-axis position of the 1# and 2# large-size cover bodies 10.
[0071] Through the real-time feedback of the sliding of the slider 1 along the X-direction and the sliding distance, the theoretical posture state of the 1# and 2# large-size cover bodies 10 can be simulated at any position within the travel range, and the 2# ranging sensor 3 is used to measure the outer contour data of the 2# large-size cover body 10 to judge the posture relationship of the 1# and 2# large-size cover bodies 10.
[0072] In this implementation example, the relative posture detection device is used to perform a relative posture detection method on two different large-sized covers of an aircraft, including the following steps:
[0073] 1) Fix the 2# large-size cover body 10 on a special tooling, put on the rack and roughly position the 1# large-size cover body 9, move the 1# large-size cover body 9 to a distance of 75 mm from the docking end face of the 2# large-size cover body 10, and install 6 sets of relative posture detection devices 10 around the docking area of the 1# large-size cover body 9. The relative posture detection device 10 is positioned using the docking hole of the 1# large-size cover body 9, and fixed by suction using the suction cup 4.
[0074] 2) Slide the 6 sets of sliders 1 on the relative posture detection devices 10 respectively along the docking direction, so that the limit stop pin 12 on the slider 1 contacts the docking end surface of the 2# large-size cover body 10, and simultaneously use the 1# distance measuring sensor 2 to measure the X-direction movement distance of each slider 1, and feed the distance value back to the control software program, calculate the movement amount of the 4 sets of posture adjustment mechanisms that drive the 1# large-size cover body 9 to move in the X, Y, and Z directions, and drive manually until the docking areas of the 1# and 2# large-size cover bodies 10 are parallel to each other with a spacing of 75 mm.
[0075] 3) Move the slider 1 on the 6 sets of relative posture detection devices 10 again along the docking direction, move 75mm and limit it to simulate the actual docking state of the 1# and 2# large-size cover bodies 10, and use the 2# distance measuring sensors 3 on the 6 sets of relative posture detection devices 10 to measure the shape data of the 2# large-size cover body 10 at this position respectively, and feed the distance value back to the control software program, calculate the movement amount in the Y and Z directions of the 4 sets of posture adjustment mechanisms that drive the 1# large-size cover body 9 to move, and drive it manually until the actual measured shape data of the 2# large-size cover body 10 at the 6 locations are within the tolerance range of the theoretical data.
[0076] 4) The 1# large-size cover body 9 is driven along the docking direction to the theoretical distance from the 2# large-size cover body 10 by four groups of posture adjustment mechanisms, and the relative posture detection of the 1# and 2# large-size cover bodies 10 is completed.
