Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of detection of pneumatic actuators, and particularly to a low-cost batch rapid automatic detection method and device for micro-precision pneumatic actuators. BACKGROUND

[0002] A micro-precision pneumatic actuator is driven by air pressure to move forward and backward. The micro-precision pneumatic actuator opens and closes and adjusts the valve through the displacement of the pneumatic shaft. The displacement of the pneumatic shaft is changed by changing the air pressure provided to the pneumatic actuator. The air tightness of the micro-precision pneumatic actuator determines its effectiveness. When the air tightness is poor or lost, it will cause the extension and retraction stroke of the pneumatic shaft to be unstable and the displacement accuracy to decrease. It will also cause the extension and retraction speed of the pneumatic shaft to slow down, and even the pneumatic shaft will not extend and retract. Therefore, each micro-precision pneumatic actuator must be detected before leaving the factory to ensure the effectiveness of the micro-precision pneumatic actuator.

[0003] First, the diameter of the pneumatic shaft of the micro-precision pneumatic actuator is less than 3 mm, the maximum displacement of the pneumatic shaft is less than 5 mm, and the displacement speed of the micro-precision pneumatic actuator is 1-1.5 m / s. The pneumatic shaft is not only small in diameter and short in extension length, but also has a very short displacement distance and a very fast displacement speed when in action. The existing detection elements, detection devices and detection methods such as traditional micro-collision switches and laser displacement sensors cannot meet the batch detection requirements of the micro-precision pneumatic actuator with such high-speed and short-displacement detection.

[0004] Second, multi-displacement detection means that the micro-precision pneumatic actuator also needs to detect whether the displacement distance of the pneumatic shaft under different corresponding air pressures meets the requirements, i.e. displacement accuracy detection, such as detecting whether the maximum displacement of the pneumatic shaft of the micro-precision pneumatic actuator under the set air pressure meets 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% of its maximum displacement. However, due to the limitation of the space requirements of the two, the detection mechanism obviously does not have enough space to install the second and subsequent micro-collision switches and laser sensors and other detection elements, so the traditional detection method can only detect one displacement at a time. It is necessary to install one micro-precision pneumatic actuator in different detection devices and detect different displacements respectively. The detection process needs to be repeated and tested, and the detection efficiency is very low. In addition, the segmented displacement is about 1 mm, and the maximum allowable displacement error is about 0.01 mm. This puts forward very high requirements on the detection accuracy, detection sensitivity, detection response speed and calculation speed of the sensor and matching detection circuit. In addition, the current ordinary detection device and detection method cannot detect the displacement error of each displacement of the pneumatic shaft.

[0005] At present, the detection precision of high-precision interferometric laser sensor can reach micron level, and can meet the detection requirements of various detection performances, but such high-precision interferometric laser sensor not only has large size, but also has high equipment cost, and it also has the problem of being unable to directly detect the pneumatic shaft due to space limitation.

[0006] Therefore, for the production enterprise, it is necessary to develop a small size, low cost detection device for batch detection of micro-precision pneumatic actuators with a diameter of less than 3mm, a maximum displacement of less than 5mm, and a displacement speed of 1-1.5m / s, and also can realize multi-displacement detection of more than 2 displacements in one detection station, while maintaining the stability and accuracy of reliable detection in the batch detection process.

The method includes the following steps:

[0030] The fixing step is to install a fixing clamp on the detection platform, quickly clamp, position and fix the micro-precision pneumatic actuator by the fixing clamp, and make the pneumatic shaft of the micro-precision pneumatic actuator face the rear side and the air pressure interface face the front side. The pneumatic shaft remains retracted before the micro-precision pneumatic actuator is supplied with air.

[0031] The air supply step is to supply air to the electronic pressure regulating valve through the air pressure supply device, and to deliver the air pressure controlled by the control unit of the detection circuit to the air pressure interface through the electronic pressure regulating valve to move the pneumatic shaft towards the rear side.

[0032] The displacement detection step is to make the front end surface of the transfer rod slidingly installed on the detection platform abut against the rear end surface of the pneumatic shaft, and to keep the transfer rod abutting against the rear end surface of the pneumatic shaft through the spring return mechanism. The rod displacement of the transfer rod is equal to the shaft displacement of the pneumatic shaft.

[0033] The transfer rod is designed to be elongated, and the middle and rear part of the transfer rod extends to the rear side area of the detection platform. A plurality of detected targets and a plurality of laser displacement sensors are arranged in the rear side area of the detection platform. The laser displacement sensors are respectively fixed to the detection platform, and each detected target is respectively fixed to the middle and rear part of the transfer rod. During the detection process, each laser displacement sensor remains fixed and immovable to obtain higher reliability and stability. Each corresponding detected target is detected by a plurality of laser displacement sensors with different displacement detection distances to obtain different specific rod displacements of the transfer rod.

[0034] The automatic detection step is started by the control unit, a plurality of detection instruction sets are sent by the control unit in sequence, the electronic pressure regulating valve is controlled by each detection instruction set to provide the corresponding air pressure value to the air pressure interface, the control unit receives the sensing signals of each laser displacement sensor, the displacement of the displacement rod is detected by a plurality of laser displacement sensors with different displacement detection distances at the same time in one displacement of the pneumatic shaft, the control unit performs logical judgment according to the corresponding detection instruction set, the sensing signals of the corresponding laser displacement sensor and logical combination, displacement detection and logical judgment are performed for each displacement of the pneumatic shaft, the control unit outputs the result of logical judgment, and the detection result of each specific shaft displacement of the current pneumatic shaft is obtained.

[0035] Further technical solutions, the detected target selects a black light-absorbing metal plate with a detection window, the detection window penetrates the light-absorbing metal plate, the light-absorbing metal plate is provided with a scale corresponding to the displacement of the pneumatic shaft at the outer edge of the detection window,

[0036] The laser displacement sensor includes two arms arranged oppositely and a detection gap between the two arms, an inner wall surface of one arm is provided with a laser emitter, and an inner wall surface of the other arm is provided with a laser receiver, the laser displacement sensor receives the laser emitted by the laser emitter through the laser receiver, and the laser is aligned with the corresponding scale to determine the displacement detection distance,

[0037] Each light-absorbing metal plate corresponding to different displacement detection distances respectively passes through the detection gap of the corresponding laser displacement sensor, in the initial state, the laser emitted by each laser displacement sensor is located in the projection area of the corresponding detection window, the laser emitted by each laser displacement sensor vertically passes through the corresponding detection window, and the laser displacement sensor keeps sending the on sensing signal to the control unit,

[0038] The displacement detection distance of the laser displacement sensor is determined by adjusting the distance of the laser emitted by each laser displacement sensor relative to the front edge of the corresponding detection window in the initial state, when the pneumatic shaft pushes the displacement rod to move backward, each light-absorbing metal plate is driven to move backward synchronously by the displacement rod, when the laser emitted by the laser displacement sensor reaches and exceeds the front edge of the corresponding detection window, the laser is blocked and cut off by the corresponding light-absorbing metal plate, the laser displacement sensor sends the off sensing signal to the control unit, and the control unit receives the sensing signals of the corresponding two or three laser displacement sensors in one detection instruction set to complete the detection of one specific displacement of the pneumatic shaft;

[0039] The control unit detects the same specific displacement of the pneumatic shaft by one detection instruction set multiple times, and the control unit sequentially detects different specific displacements of the pneumatic shaft by different detection instruction sets in sequence.

[0040] Further, the control unit indirectly detects displacement of the pneumatic shaft by the two laser displacement sensors respectively in response to the two lasers emitted by the two adjacent detection instructions in the detection instruction set passing through the detection window of the same light-absorbing metal plate and the front side edge of the detection window, so as to improve detection accuracy, wherein the displacement detection distance of one laser displacement sensor is equal to the minimum displacement distance allowed by the pneumatic shaft, and the displacement detection distance of the other laser displacement sensor is equal to the maximum displacement distance allowed by the pneumatic shaft.

[0041] In one detection instruction set, the control unit only receives sensing signals of two laser displacement sensors with displacement detection distances corresponding to the detection instruction set, and performs logical judgment according to the sensing signals of the two laser displacement sensors.

[0042] If the control unit does not receive the disconnection sensing signal of the laser displacement sensor corresponding to the minimum displacement distance, it is judged that the displacement is too small.

[0043] If the control unit receives the disconnection sensing signal of the laser displacement sensor corresponding to the minimum displacement distance and does not receive the disconnection sensing signal of the laser displacement sensor corresponding to the maximum displacement distance, it is judged that the detection is qualified.

[0046] In the early stage of executing each detection instruction set, if the result of logical judgment by the control unit is that the displacement is too small or the displacement is too long, and the cumulative number of times reaches a set number of times, the control unit immediately switches to execute the rapid detection sub-instruction set, so as to reduce the calculation amount of the control unit and improve detection efficiency.

[0047] The control unit executes the rapid detection sub-instruction set to perform detection and rapid judgment in a relatively stable environment. The control unit repeatedly executes the current displacement detection 10 times, and the time interval between adjacent two displacement detections is set to 1-2 seconds. The control unit controls the electronic pressure regulating valve to supply gas to the gas pressure interface and maintain a stable gas pressure for 1-2 seconds. The control unit performs logical judgment according to the sensing signals of the two laser displacement sensors during detection. If the detection result still has the result of logical judgment that the displacement is too small or the displacement is too long, the control unit judges that the detection is unqualified. The control unit ends the current detection instruction set and executes the next detection instruction set, or directly ends all detection instruction sets of the current micro-precision pneumatic actuator and outputs the detection result.

[0048] Further, the detection instruction set further comprises a high-speed detection sub-instruction set,

[0049] Before executing each detection instruction set, the control unit executes the high-speed detection sub-instruction set to perform high-speed detection, and the control unit counts the logical judgment result during the high-speed detection,

[0050] During the high-speed detection, the control unit sets the time interval between two adjacent displacement detections to 0.5-1 second, and sets the detection times of the high-speed detection to 500-1000 times, and the control unit performs logical judgment according to the sensing signals of the two corresponding laser displacement sensors during the detection;

[0051] During 100 displacement detections of each detection instruction set, if the result of the logical judgment performed by the control unit is that the number of times of too small displacement or too long displacement accumulates to 3 times or more, the control unit immediately switches to execute the fast detection sub-instruction set.

[0052] Further, the control unit indirectly detects the displacement of the pneumatic shaft by the three lasers emitted by the control unit in one detection instruction set passing through the detection window of the same light-absorbing metal plate and being sensed by the corresponding laser displacement sensors on the front side edge of the detection window, so as to improve the detection accuracy,

[0053] The displacement detection distance of the first laser displacement sensor is equal to the minimum displacement distance allowed by the pneumatic shaft, the displacement detection distance of the second laser displacement sensor in the middle is equal to the standard displacement of the pneumatic shaft, and the displacement detection distance of the third laser displacement sensor is equal to the maximum displacement distance allowed by the pneumatic shaft.

[0054] In one detection instruction set, the control unit only receives the sensing signals of the three laser displacement sensors corresponding to the current detection instruction set, and performs logical judgment according to the sensing signals of the three corresponding laser displacement sensors, and the judgment result of the logical judgment includes less than the allowed minimum displacement distance, between the allowed minimum displacement distance and the standard distance, equal to the standard displacement, between the standard displacement and the allowed maximum displacement distance, and greater than the allowed maximum displacement distance, so as to detect the displacement and displacement error of the pneumatic shaft.

[0055] The speed of the pneumatic shaft is calculated by recording the time interval at which the sensing signals of the two laser displacement sensors with the largest distance are triggered.

Each light-absorbing metal plate 51 corresponding to different displacement detection distances respectively horizontally penetrates the detection gap 221 of the corresponding laser displacement sensor 22. In the initial state, the laser emitted by each laser displacement sensor 22 is located in the projection area of the corresponding detection window 52, and the laser emitted by each laser displacement sensor 22 vertically penetrates the corresponding detection window 52. The laser displacement sensor 22 keeps sending the on-sensing signal to the control unit. The displacement detection distance of the laser displacement sensor 22 is determined by adjusting the distance between the laser emitted by the laser displacement sensor 22 and the front edge of the corresponding detection window 52 in the initial state. When the pneumatic shaft 10 pushes the displacement rod 21 to move backward, the displacement rod 21 synchronously drives each light-absorbing metal plate 51 to move backward. When the laser emitted by the laser displacement sensor 22 reaches and exceeds the front edge of the corresponding detection window 52, the laser is blocked and cut off by the corresponding light-absorbing metal plate 51. The laser displacement sensor 22 sends the off-sensing signal to the control unit.

The displacement detection distance of one laser displacement sensor 22 is equal to the minimum displacement distance allowed by the pneumatic shaft 10, and the displacement detection distance of the other laser displacement sensor 22 is equal to the maximum displacement distance allowed by the pneumatic shaft 10.

[0110] In one detection instruction set, the control unit only receives the sensing signals of two laser displacement sensors 22 with displacement detection distances corresponding to the current detection instruction set, and logically judges according to the sensing signals of the two corresponding laser displacement sensors 22,

[0111] If the control unit does not receive the disconnection sensing signal of the laser displacement sensor 22 corresponding to the minimum displacement distance, it is determined that the displacement is too small,

[0112] If the control unit receives the disconnection sensing signal of the laser displacement sensor 22 corresponding to the minimum displacement distance and does not receive the disconnection sensing signal corresponding to the maximum displacement distance, it is determined that the detection is qualified,

[0113] If the control unit sequentially receives the disconnection sensing signal of the laser displacement sensor 22 corresponding to the minimum displacement distance and the disconnection sensing signal corresponding to the maximum displacement distance, it is determined that the displacement is too long.

[0114] In an embodiment, the control unit indirectly detects the displacement of the pneumatic shaft 10 through three adjacent laser displacement sensors 22 in one detection instruction set, so that the detection accuracy is improved.

[0115] The displacement detection distance of the first laser displacement sensor 22 is equal to the minimum displacement distance allowed by the pneumatic shaft 10, the displacement detection distance of the second laser displacement sensor 22 in the middle is equal to the standard displacement of the pneumatic shaft 10, and the displacement detection distance of the third laser displacement sensor 22 is equal to the maximum displacement distance allowed by the pneumatic shaft 10.

[0116] In one detection instruction set, the control unit only receives the sensing signals of the three laser displacement sensors 22 corresponding to the current detection instruction set, and performs logical judgment according to the sensing signals of the three laser displacement sensors 22. The judgment result of the logical judgment includes less than the allowed minimum displacement distance, between the allowed minimum displacement distance and the standard distance, equal to the standard displacement, between the standard displacement and the allowed maximum displacement distance, and greater than the allowed maximum displacement distance, so as to realize the detection of the displacement and the displacement error of the pneumatic shaft 10.

[0117] The method further comprises a position adjusting step, an automatic identifying step, and a docking step,

[0118] The position adjusting step is performed before the fixing step, and is realized by a fine adjustment platform. One laser displacement sensor 22 is fixed to the fine adjustment platform to form a detection module for detecting a specific displacement. Two or three detection modules are combined to form a detection module 2 for detecting a specific displacement of the pneumatic shaft 10. Four detection modules 2 are used to detect 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% of the maximum displacement of the pneumatic shaft 10, respectively.

[0119] An automatic identification step is performed after the fixing step is completed. A two-dimensional code or a bar code attached to the micro-precision pneumatic actuator 1 is scanned by a code scanning gun before detection. The control unit obtains the identity ID and the model of the micro-precision pneumatic actuator 1 through the code scanning gun, and then performs a transfer detection step. The control unit automatically determines whether it is qualified according to the model of the micro-precision pneumatic actuator 1 currently detected and the corresponding qualified parameters during the detection process. After the detection is completed, the detection result and the identity ID of the micro-precision pneumatic actuator 1 are bound, and a complete electronic report is output.
