Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of inertial system technology, specifically relating to a miniaturized shaft end of an inertial platform. Background Technology

[0002] The primary function of an inertial platform is to establish a navigation coordinate system independent of the aircraft's angular motion, according to given technical specifications, providing a coordinate reference for the measurement of acceleration and attitude angles. Isolation of the inertial platform's internal measuring devices from the aircraft's angular motion is achieved through a rotating shaft. Due to limitations imposed by aircraft operating conditions, the environmental adaptability requirements for inertial platforms are increasingly stringent, with demands for miniaturization and weight reduction. Therefore, the miniaturization of the shaft has become a key factor restricting the integration and in-depth application of inertial platforms. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to propose a miniaturized shaft end for an inertial platform. The shaft end cap and shaft end seat are both integrally designed, achieving both the function of the shaft and making efficient use of the hole space, resulting in a more compact shaft end. A high-rigidity cross-section is employed, effectively reducing component thickness, increasing component mounting volume, and improving rotational stiffness and anti-overturning capabilities.

[0004] The above-mentioned objective of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] A miniaturized shaft end for an inertial platform includes a shaft end stator, a shaft end rotor, bearings, an inner ring adjusting shim, and an outer ring adjusting shim. The shaft end stator includes a shaft end cover, a stator, and a stator retaining ring. The shaft end rotor includes a shaft end seat and a rotor. The shaft end cover is connected to a fixed end, and the shaft end seat is connected to a rotating end. One end of the stator is pressed against the shaft end cover in the axial direction, and the other end is pressed and limited by the stator retaining ring. The rotor is connected to the shaft end seat. The shaft end stator and the shaft end rotor are connected by bearings. The inner ring of the bearing is pressed against the shaft end cover, and the outer ring is pressed against the shaft end seat. The inner ring adjusting shim is installed between the shaft end cover and the inner ring of the bearing. The outer ring adjusting shim is installed between the shaft end seat and the outer ring of the bearing.

[0006] The shaft end cover includes a stator positioning step, a stator fixing threaded hole, a guide shaft, and an inner ring positioning step. One end of the stator is positioned by the stator positioning step, and the other end of the stator pressure ring is connected to the shaft end cover through the stator fixing threaded hole to press and fix the stator. The bearing inner ring is installed on the guide shaft and pressed against the inner ring positioning step. The inner ring adjusting shim is installed between the inner ring positioning step and the bearing inner ring.

[0007] The shaft end cover also includes a threaded hole. The guide shaft is hollow inside, and a signal transmission device can be installed and fixed through the threaded hole.

[0008] The shaft end seat includes an outer ring guide shaft, a rotor positioning step, a guide hole, and an outer ring positioning step. The rotor is mounted on the outer ring guide shaft of the shaft end seat by an interference fit and is positioned by the rotor positioning step. The bearing outer ring is installed in the guide hole and pressed against the outer ring positioning step of the shaft end seat. An outer ring adjusting shim is installed between the outer ring positioning step of the shaft end seat and the bearing outer ring.

[0009] It also includes a rotor locking nut, a bearing inner ring locking nut, and a bearing outer ring locking nut. The shaft end cover is provided with a first guide shaft thread section, and the shaft end seat is provided with a second guide shaft thread section and a guide hole thread. The rotor locking nut engages with the guide shaft thread of the shaft end seat to press the rotor onto the shaft end seat. The bearing inner ring locking nut engages with the first guide shaft thread section through its internal thread to press the bearing inner ring onto the shaft end cover. The bearing outer ring locking nut engages with the guide hole thread through its external thread to press the bearing outer ring onto the shaft end seat.

[0010] The shaft end cover is provided with multiple elongated elliptical holes and a fixed end positioning surface, and the shaft end seat is provided with radial threaded holes and a rotating end positioning surface. The shaft end cover is connected to the fixed end through the elongated elliptical holes and the fixed end positioning surface; the multiple radial threaded holes are provided in the circumferential direction of the shaft end seat, and the shaft end seat is connected to the rotating end through the radial threaded holes and the rotating end positioning surface.

[0011] By fixing the elongated elliptical hole of the shaft end cap and applying a measurement at the radial threaded hole of the shaft end seat, the maximum starting interference torque of the bearing and the maximum starting interference torque of the assembly after the shaft end is assembled can be obtained.

[0012] The shaft end cover includes counterweight mounting holes, stator observation holes, and circuit board mounting holes. Multiple counterweight mounting holes, stator observation holes, and circuit board mounting holes are arranged sequentially from the inside to the outside on the end face of the shaft end cover.

The stator lead wires can be led out from the stator observation holes, and the stator can be inspected for its morphology through the stator observation holes. The circuit board mounting holes can realize the overall 4-point or 2-point split installation of the circuit board.

[0013] The shaft end seat includes a rotor outlet hole, which is used to achieve the regularization of the wire harness.

[0014] The bearings are paired bearings.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:
