At present, the engine casing is mostly supported by simple sleepers during hydraulic testing. During the displacement acquisition process, the casing often undergoes rigid body displacement and displacement meter and measuring point offset due to the internal pressure load, resulting in inaccurate displacement test results.
[0003] The present invention proposes a tool for collecting displacement during hydraulic testing of a solid rocket engine casing, which comprehensively considers the clamping of casings with different projectile diameters, the clamping and positioning of the displacement test device, the geometric relationship during the casing displacement process, and the possible explosion factors during the casing hydraulic process.

[0030] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0031] like Figure 1 Isometric view of displacement acquisition tooling during hydraulic testing of solid rocket motor casing and Figure 2As shown in the left view of the tooling for collecting displacement during hydraulic testing of a solid rocket engine casing, a tooling for collecting displacement during hydraulic testing of a solid rocket engine casing of the present invention includes a fixed base 1, a sliding base 2, a limit block 3, a displacement clamping device assembly 4, a slide rail 5, and other connectors and fasteners.
[0032] The fixed base 1 includes a flat base, and is connected to a bracket on one side of the surface. The bracket is made of metal profiles, and the profiles are connected by welding or hinge blocks with screws. The flat plate at the top of the bracket is engraved with a distance scale for rapid positioning of the displacement test device. In one embodiment, the fixed base 1 is composed of a flat base and a bracket on one side. The bracket is welded from 45# steel profiles, and the flat plate bracket at the top of the bracket is engraved with a distance scale, with a minimum scale of 1mm.
[0033] The bottom of the bracket is a metal flat base, with a rectangular slide groove in the middle of the flat base, and a number of equidistant threaded holes on both sides of the groove. In one embodiment, the flat base has two rectangular slide grooves in the middle, and 5 rows of 20mm equidistant threaded holes on both sides of the groove. The base is 1500mm long and 1000mm wide, which can well meet the use of shells with a bullet diameter of 150mm to 800mm and a length of 200mm to 3000mm in actual use.
[0034] The bottom of the flat base is connected to the ground through anchor bolts, which has the advantages of low cost, long service life and good load-bearing performance. When the connection is replaced with a base equipped with supporting base casters, it has the functions of height adjustment, movement and locking.
[0035] The structure of the sliding base 2 is similar to the bracket of the fixed base 1. For example, except for the fixing method, it is symmetrical with the outer structure of the bracket. It is installed on the other side of the surface of the fixed base 1 opposite to the bracket, and two rectangular slide rails are opened at the bottom to cooperate with the fixed base 1 to realize the left and right movement of the sliding base 2 and adjust the distance from the bracket. The type of the slide rail can be adaptively replaced according to the actual load-bearing requirements.
[0036] In one embodiment, the sliding base 2 is in the shape of a bracket and is made of metal profiles. The flat plate at the top of the bracket is engraved with a distance scale. The scale value corresponds to the scale on the upper flat plate of the fixed base 1. When the strain acquisition device is positioned, the scales on both sides are kept uniform to ensure the consistency in the horizontal direction and the centering of the displacement test device. There are two rectangular slide rails at the bottom for use with the fixed base 1 to realize the left and right movement of the sliding base.
[0037] The limiting block 3 is substantially L-shaped and connected to the fixed base 1 with a set screw to limit the movement of the sliding base 2.
[0038] like Figure 3As shown in the partial detail diagram of the displacement clamping device in the displacement collection tooling during the hydraulic test of the solid rocket engine casing, the displacement clamping device assembly 4 is composed of a slider 6, a support rod A7, a support rod B8, and a displacement meter clamping device 9, wherein the slider 6 cooperates with the slide rail 5 to realize the free positioning function of the displacement clamping device assembly 4 along the axial direction of the casing to be tested, and can be quickly and accurately positioned in conjunction with a scale ruler.
[0039] The support rod A7 has a connecting hole at the front end and a rounded rectangular groove at the rear end. The support rod B8 has a connecting hole at the front end and a groove of a certain length along the middle surface, which can ensure the flexibility of the front end of the support rod B8. The cooperation of the two can realize the variation of the total arm length within a certain range, and the locking between the two is achieved through a screw-washer nut structure.
[0040] The rear end of the support rod B8 is hinged to the displacement meter clamping device 9, and a pair of displacement meter clamping devices 9 cooperate with the screw-nut structure to realize the clamping and locking function of the displacement meter 10. The displacement meter can be selected as contact type or non-contact type according to the usage.
[0041] like Figure 4 As shown in the schematic diagram of the displacement acquisition tooling design during the hydraulic test of the solid rocket engine case, the main principle of the tooling design is to set an angle 2α between the fixed base 1 and the sliding base 2 and the bracket in contact with the shell to be tested. When the radius of the hydraulic front barrel section of the shell to be tested is R, the radius change after pressure is R'; then the geometric relationship between the radial displacement change ΔR and the indication change ΔL of the displacement meter is ΔR = ΔL / (1 / sinα+1), in the example α = 30°, ΔR = ΔL / 3.
[0042] The present invention can effectively solve the problems of rigid body displacement and displacement measuring point offset of the solid rocket engine casing and similar cylindrical pressure-bearing structural parts during hydraulic testing, and can accurately detect the radial displacement change of the solid rocket engine casing during the load-bearing process. Its specific advantages are as follows: (1) The displacement acquisition system is easy to operate, with high displacement acquisition efficiency and accuracy. The radial displacement of the casing can be acquired without arranging a strain acquisition device on the opposite side. The displacement measurement point is easy to locate and the collected displacement data is highly reliable, which can meet the requirements of multi-point displacement acquisition. (2) It is convenient for strain acquisition during displacement acquisition, and the skeleton structure is used for convenience. The strain collection requirements of each quadrant measuring point during the shell test; (3) Good applicability. The movement of the sliding base can solve the testing of shells in a wider range of bullet diameters; (4) Good structural stability, high durability, and long service life. The metal profiles used in the device have good load-bearing performance, and the skeleton structure can avoid the blasting impact that may occur during the shell hydraulic process to a certain extent. The displacement test system can be disassembled and has good interchangeability when the device is partially damaged; (5) Good economy and high process maturity. The support frame can be prepared using directly purchased metal profiles, the slide rails can be directly purchased, and the connection methods all use common screws, nuts, welding, etc.
