Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a radar antenna cover construction technology, and in particular to a high-precision radar antenna cover construction and positioning technology, and in particular to a spherical radar antenna cover construction method and a double-layer positioning tooling thereof. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of radar technology, the operating frequency of radar antenna equipment is gradually moving towards high frequency and broadband. Due to its performance limitations, traditional dielectric radomes can no longer meet the stringent requirements of high-frequency and broadband radar antennas. In contrast, metal truss radomes have become the first choice to meet this demand due to their superior performance. For metal truss radomes with a diameter of less than 3 meters, due to the transportability of the entire radome and the limitations of the rod size, the block structure is difficult to achieve. Therefore, the integral spherical space truss structure is widely used.
[0003] At present, the commonly used spherical space truss structures are Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it mainly includes a plurality of corner point plates 1, a plurality of arc-shaped rods 2 and a circular base rod 3. The corner point plate 1 has five grooves 11 evenly distributed along the radial direction and is arranged from bottom to top at the spherical node. The corner point plate 1 at the bottom of the sphere is embedded in the groove through the connecting rod 4 and then welded to the circular base rod 3, while a plurality of arc-shaped rods 2 are embedded in the groove 11 of the corner point plate 1 of the spherical node to form a spherical space truss. These arc-shaped rods 2 are fixed to the corner point plate 1 of the spherical node by welding. However, since the corner point plate is arranged on the spherical surface as a spatial structure, its spatial positioning is extremely difficult, resulting in many difficulties in the production process of the spherical space truss, poor spherical forming effect, low production efficiency and high cost.
[0004] In order to improve this situation, relevant technicians have been constantly exploring. For example, the invention of Chinese Patent No. 202010292998.2 proposes a large-span single-layer space ellipsoid antenna truss and a manufacturing and installation method. Although this method achieves precise positioning of the antenna through a complex multi-layer structure design, its implementation process is extremely cumbersome and requires multiple steps such as finite element analysis, GPS equipment calibration, and total station measurement. These steps need to be repeated, which greatly increases the difficulty and cost of making the spherical space truss, resulting in low production efficiency.
[0005] Therefore, the main problems existing in the prior art are: the manufacturing process of the spherical space truss is complicated, the positioning is difficult, the manufacturing efficiency is low and the cost is high. These problems seriously restrict the widespread application and development of the spherical radar antenna cover. Summary of the invention
[0006] The present invention is proposed based on the above background technology, and it proposes a method for building a spherical radar antenna cover and a double-layer positioning tool. Through the use of the double-layer positioning tool, high-precision positioning and stable support of the radar antenna cover are achieved, which effectively simplifies the production process, improves positioning accuracy and production efficiency, and reduces manufacturing costs.
[0007] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is achieved in the following ways: A method for constructing a spherical radar antenna cover, comprising: Step 1: construct an internal positioning tool, wherein the internal positioning tool is used to provide basic positioning and support for the spherical radar antenna cover; Step 2: constructing an external positioning tool based on the internal positioning tool, wherein the external positioning tool is arranged according to a predetermined spherical contour to form a spherical frame; Step 3: Build the radar antenna cover based on the external positioning tooling, fix the components of the radar antenna cover on the external positioning tooling by welding, riveting with pins, or bolting with nuts and bolts, and complete the construction of the spherical radar antenna cover; in, The internal positioning tooling includes a plurality of tooling angle plates 5, a plurality of tooling beams 6 and a plurality of tooling bases 7; The tooling angle plate 5 has five legs 51 evenly distributed along the radial direction, and each leg 51 is provided with at least two first positioning pin holes 52 at intervals for connecting with the tooling beam 6 and / or other tooling angle plates 5; The tooling base 7 is an inverted T-shaped member consisting of a vertical plate 71 and a horizontal plate 72. The vertical plate 71 is provided with at least two second positioning pin holes 711 at intervals, and the horizontal plate 72 is provided with at least three first pin holes 721 at intervals on both sides of the vertical plate 71, respectively, for fixing to the tooling beam 6 and / or the ground; The two ends of the tooling beams 6 are connected to the five legs 51 of the tooling angle plates 5 by pins to form a part of the spherical surface, and one leg 51 of the bottom tooling angle plate 5 is connected to the vertical plates 71 of the tooling bases 7 by pins to form a stable internal support structure; Several tooling angle plates 5 form spherical nodes; The external positioning tooling includes a plurality of corner point plates 1, a plurality of arc-shaped rods 2 and a circular base rod 3; The corner point plate 1 is provided with third positioning pin holes 12 at intervals on its surface and is fixed to a plurality of tooling corner plates 5 by pins; A plurality of arc-shaped rods 2 are respectively embedded in the five grooves 11 of a plurality of corner plates 1 to form a spherical space truss, and the plurality of arc-shaped rods 2 are fixed to the corner plates 1 of the spherical nodes by welding; The horizontal plate 72 of the tooling base 7 is fixed to the circular basic rod 3 through at least three first pin holes 721 and pins, so as to realize the positioning of a plurality of corner plates 1, a plurality of arc rods 2 and the circular basic rod 3 in the spherical space truss.
[0008] In the above-mentioned method for constructing the spherical radar antenna cover, the tooling beam 6 is a channel steel, and at least two second pin holes 61 are respectively provided at two ends thereof to improve the stability and strength of the connection with the tooling angle plate 5 .
[0009] In the method for building the spherical radar antenna cover, in step 3, when building the radar antenna cover, firstly, the shell component of the radar antenna cover is fixed to the arc-shaped rod 2 of the external positioning tooling by welding or riveting with pins or bolts; Then, at the bottom of the spherical radar antenna cover, the bottom structure of the radar antenna cover is fixed to the circular basic rod 3 by welding the connecting rod 4 or other connecting methods to complete the overall construction of the radar antenna cover.
[0010] The method for constructing the spherical radar antenna cover is as follows: after the construction of the radar antenna cover is completed, it can be selected whether to remove the internal positioning tooling as needed; If the internal positioning tool needs to be removed, the connecting pins between the tool angle plate 5, the tool beam 6 and the tool base 7 are pulled out, and other related connecting parts are removed to obtain a complete spherical radar antenna cover.
[0011] Furthermore, the present invention also proposes a design method for the above-mentioned double-layer positioning tooling, comprising: S1. According to the external dimensions of the spherical radar antenna cover, determine the dimensions of the internal positioning tool, including the tooling angle plate 5, the tooling beam 6 and the tooling base 7, and the external positioning tool, including the dimensions of the corner point plate 1, the arc rod 2 and the circular base rod 3; S2.

[0012] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned high-precision double-layer positioning tooling design method for the spherical radar antenna cover: The radial distribution of the tooling angle plate 5 of the internal positioning tooling and the length of the support legs 51 are determined based on the internal curvature of the radar antenna cover and the number of required support points; The length and connection method of the tooling beam 6 are determined based on the load-bearing capacity of the tooling beam 6 and the requirement of easy assembly.
[0013] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned high-precision double-layer positioning tooling design method for the spherical radar antenna cover: The position and quantity of the corner point plates 1 of the external positioning tool are determined based on the external contour of the radar antenna cover and the accuracy requirements of the required positioning points; The length and curvature of the arc-shaped rod 2 are determined based on the requirements of the fitting accuracy and ease of processing of the arc-shaped rod 2 .
[0014] Furthermore, the high-precision double-layer positioning tooling design method of the spherical radar antenna cover is as follows: The cross-sectional dimensions of the tooling beam 6 and the arc-shaped rod 2 are determined based on the overall strength and stability requirements of the positioning tooling, as well as the comprehensive consideration of material cost and processing difficulty; The specific structure and size of the corner point plate 1 and the tooling angle plate 5 are determined based on the reliability of the connection method and the requirements of easy operation.
[0015] The advantages and characteristics of the method for constructing the spherical radar antenna cover proposed in the present invention are: 1) The internal positioning framework lays a solid foundation: The internal positioning frame is composed of tooling angle plates, tooling beams, and tooling base components, providing a stable basic positioning and support for the construction of the radar antenna cover; The coordinated design of the tooling beam and the tooling angle plate not only forms a part of the spherical surface, but also provides an accurate reference and convenient measurement effect for the subsequent external positioning frame, especially the fixation and positioning of the angle point plate; The detachable design of the internal positioning frame allows it to be easily removed after all operations are completed without affecting the subsequent use of the radar antenna cover.
[0016] 2) The double-layer framework of the internal positioning framework and the external positioning framework works together: During the construction process, the internal positioning frame and the external positioning frame work together to form a temporary and stable support structure for the radar antenna cover; the internal frame provides basic support, while the external frame ensures the high precision and shape accuracy of the radar antenna cover during the construction process through its precise layout and reasonable structural design; on this basis, the external positioning frame is precisely arranged according to the predetermined spherical contour, and the design of the corner point plate is coordinated with the tooling corner plate of the internal frame, and the final shape and accuracy of the radar antenna cover are ensured through precise measurement and positioning.
[0017] Thanks to the collaborative work of the above-mentioned double-layer frame, the stability and reliability of the radar antenna cover during the construction process are ensured; this design makes the construction process smoother and reduces errors and deviations caused by structural instability.
[0018] In summary, this technical solution achieves high-precision construction of the radar antenna cover through the use of double-layer positioning tooling.
