Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to agricultural machinery structure optimization technology, and in particular to a paddy field grader structure natural frequency optimization method based on size linkage and response surface method. Background Art
[0002] In modern agriculture, paddy field graders are an important agricultural machinery. Their main function is to improve soil structure through loosening and leveling operations, thereby improving the quality of paddy field cultivation and production efficiency. With the expansion of agricultural production scale and the improvement of mechanization efficiency requirements, higher requirements are put forward for the design of paddy field graders, especially in the optimization of their natural frequency, in order to reduce the risk of resonance and improve the stability and reliability of equipment operation. When the paddy field grader is in operation, it is mainly subject to excitation from the road surface and excitation from the engine. When the natural frequency of the grader is close to these excitation frequencies, resonance will occur. This resonance not only reduces the working efficiency, but also accelerates the wear and failure of the equipment and increases the maintenance cost. In addition, resonance may have a negative impact on the health of the operator and lead to unsatisfactory leveling effects, thereby affecting the yield of crops. Studies have shown that the excitation frequency range of the paddy field ground is usually between 0.869 and 4.34Hz, while the excitation frequency of the engine used by the paddy field grader is about 18Hz. This shows that the main excitation frequency of the external environment on the equipment is concentrated in the lower frequency band. Therefore, in order to avoid resonance, the low-order natural frequency should be increased as much as possible when designing and optimizing the structure of the paddy field grader.
[0003] However, in previous optimization methods, only the dimensional influence of a single component of the paddy field grader is usually focused on, while the complex linkage relationship between the dimensions in the entire assembly is ignored. Due to the lack of association between the characteristic parameters of the paddy field grader model, when adjusting the size of a certain feature, the parameters of the related features cannot be automatically updated synchronously, and multiple characteristic parameters need to be manually modified to respond to design changes. This not only greatly reduces the flexibility and efficiency of the natural frequency optimization of the paddy field grader structure, but also makes it difficult to achieve a globally optimal design solution for the paddy field grader structure. Summary of the invention
[0004] In view of the technical problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for optimizing the natural frequency of a paddy field grader structure based on size linkage and response surface method, which can accurately and efficiently perform response surface optimization on the structural parameters of the paddy field grader to improve its natural frequency and reduce the risk of resonance.
[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0018] S44: Add joints and constraints. According to the working principle of the paddy field grader, add corresponding joints and constraints to the model. Set each hinge connection of the paddy field grader as a revolving joint connection, set the connection between the elevation hydraulic rod and the elevation hydraulic cylinder as a moving joint connection, and set the connection between the horizontal hydraulic rod and the horizontal hydraulic cylinder as a moving joint connection. Apply cylindrical supports to the connection between the elevation hydraulic rod, the crossbeam, and the left and right connecting rods and the fuselage.

[0027] As a preferred embodiment, in step S01, when establishing a three-dimensional model of a paddy field grader in Solid Works, the assembly should be designed from top to bottom, so as to establish linkage features and realize the linkage of related dimensions between the parts of the assembly; first, use SolidWorks Treehouse to establish an assembly containing 9 parts, namely, a crossbeam, a left connecting rod, a right connecting rod, a mounting frame, a leveling shovel, an elevation hydraulic rod, an elevation hydraulic cylinder, a horizontal hydraulic rod, and a horizontal hydraulic cylinder; and arrange the loading order of the parts according to the actual installation order of the paddy field grader, and draw the parts in the assembly according to the assembly relationship.
[0028] As a preferred embodiment, in step S02, when setting parameters for the dimensions to be optimized in the model, two types of dimensions need to be set: one is the dimension parameter setting in the sketch. In the sketch editing mode, add "DS_" in front of the name of the corresponding dimension parameter; the other is the dimension parameter setting of the feature, such as the depth of the extruded feature. Since the dimension cannot be named in the form of a name when setting the dimension parameter of the feature, the parameter cannot be modified. Therefore, the parameter is defined in the form of a global variable to achieve the linkage between the modification of the parameter and the dimension. First, add a global variable to the assembly model named scraper. Enter from the menu bar: Tools->Equations, add a global variable. The name of the variable should be in English, and add a prefix "DS_" in front, such as "DS_Variable", and give the value of the variable. Then open the component where the feature is located, select the corresponding feature for editing, delete the dimension first when setting the dimension of the feature, then click the dimension input box with the mouse, and enter the expression = "DS_Variable@scraper.Assembly". The purpose of this expression is to reference the global variable "DS_Variable" in the assembly "scraper". In this way, it can be ensured that the size of the part feature can be automatically adjusted as the global variable "DS_Variable" in the assembly changes, achieving flexible linkage of dimensions.
[0029] As a preferred embodiment, in step S03, to start Workbench from SolidWorks, you need to install the ANSYS plug-in in SolidWorks first. In the main interface "Tools", click "ANSYS2022R1" → "Ansys Workbench" command to create a Geometry project in the Workbench interface. Double-click "Geometry" in the A2 column of Project A. At this time, DesignModeler will be loaded. In DM, update Attach1 to generate the model, thereby completing the import of the paddy field grader model. When performing parametric design on the paddy field grader model, find the variables defined in step S02 and check the small square in front. Set all variables involved in the optimization as input parameters and establish a size parameter set; in the generated size parameter set, set the parameter association according to the relationship between the parameters. If the relationship between the beam length l1 and the left / right connecting rod length l2 is l1=l2+30mm, then in the parameter l2 property interface, define the parameter value as the expression "l1-30".
[0030] As a preferred embodiment, in step S05, when performing correlation analysis on all input parameters in the size parameter set, only the first-order natural frequency and the second-order natural frequency are selected as key response variables for analysis, the correlation type is selected to use Spearman correlation, and the mean value accuracy is set to 0.01, and the standard deviation accuracy is set to 0.02; start the correlation analysis, and let the system calculate the influence of each input parameter on the first-order natural frequency and the second-order natural frequency of the selected output parameter; after the analysis is completed, check the generated sensitivity bar chart to screen out four input parameters with higher comprehensive sensitivity values.
[0031] As a preferred embodiment, in step S62, when performing the experimental design, only the input parameters with higher comprehensive sensitivity values screened out in step S05 are checked, and the upper and lower limits are set for each input parameter, and then the "experimental type design" and "sample type" are set, and the method is selected as needed. Here, Latin hypercube sampling design and CCD sampling are selected, and the "experimental design" is updated to generate experimental design points; note that during the update of the "experimental design", do not close the paddy field grader model in SolidWorks associated with Ansys Workbench; during the update of the "experimental design", do not close the paddy field grader model in SolidWorks associated with Ansys Workbench; after updating the "experimental design", double-click to enter the "response surface" and set the type of response surface; here, select the standard response surface, and update to generate the corresponding response surface results; and import the "experimental design points" generated in step S62 into the software Design-Expert for multivariate regression fitting to obtain the prediction model of the first-order and second-order natural frequencies and structural quality of the paddy field grader.
[0032] As a preferred embodiment, in step S64, the absolute coefficient R is used 2 , Root mean square error E RMS , mean absolute error E RMA The accuracy of the fitting surface is evaluated. If the response surface model does not meet the requirements of goodness of fit, the response surface model is re-established until it meets the requirements of goodness of fit.

[0034]
[0035] E RMS The calculation formula is:
[0036]
[0037] E RMA The calculation formula is:
[0038]
[0039] Among them, y i is the DOE test data value, is the predicted value of the response surface similarity model, is the mean value of DOE experimental data, where the DOE experimental data value is the sample data obtained after the DOE sampling test is carried out according to the predicted value of the response surface similarity model.

[0049] When multi-objective response surface optimization is performed on the structure of a paddy field grader, the optimization objectives are to maximize the first-order natural frequency and the first-order natural frequency of the paddy field grader structure and minimize the structural mass, and the first-order and second-order natural frequencies are greater than twice the paddy field ground excitation frequency and the engine frequency, and the range of design variables is used as a constraint; a multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) is used for optimization, and the initial population size is set to 10,000, the number of new populations generated by sample iteration in each generation is 100, the maximum number of iterations is 20, the allowable deviation is 2%, and the maximum allowable Pareto percentage is 70%. The weights of the first-order natural frequency and the second-order natural frequency are set to higher importance, and the structural mass is set to the default importance. After setting the optimization properties, three candidate points that meet the conditions are generated by solving, and finally one is selected as the optimal design point by comprehensively considering the primary and secondary objectives.
[0050] The present invention has the following advantages:

In the sketch editing mode, parameterization is achieved by adding "DS_" in front of the name of the corresponding dimension parameter; the parameter type in the table is a feature parameter. Parameterization is achieved by adding a global variable in the assembly model and referencing the variable when editing the feature size. Taking the parameterization setting of the beam length as an example, a global variable "DS_l1" is added to the assembly model with the document name scraper, and the value of the variable is given to be 820.

[0110] When the simplified three-dimensional model of the paddy field grader imported into Ansys Workbench is parametrically designed in step S03, the variables defined in step S02 are found and the small square in front is checked, and all the variables involved in the optimization are set as input parameters to establish a size parameter set. In the generated parameter set, the connecting rod length l2 is associated with the beam length l1, and the parameter value is defined as the expression "l1-30" in the parameter l2 property interface, and the mounting frame width w3 is associated with the beam length w1, and the parameter value is defined as the expression "w1+10" in the parameter w2 property interface.
[0111] Then, step S04 is executed to perform modal analysis on the simplified 3D model of the paddy field grader imported into Ansys Workbench in S03, and the total deformation of the paddy field grader structure and the first six natural frequencies in the initial state are obtained, and some output results are set as output parameters. Specifically, the material properties are defined first. The material of the paddy field grader structure is Q235, and the density is 7.85g / cm 3 , Young's modulus is 200 GPa, and Poisson's ratio is 0.3. Then according to Figure 3 As shown in Table 2, a connection pair is set at each connection of the simplified model of the paddy field leveler, and a cylindrical support is applied at the connection between the elevation hydraulic rod, the crossbeam, and the left / right connecting rod and the fuselage. The simplified model of the paddy field leveler is meshed using tetrahedral elements, where a mesh size of 15 mm is applied to the crossbeam and the left / right connecting rod, and a mesh size of 20 mm is used for the rest of the parts. After meshing, Figure 3 Finally, the first six modes are solved, and the results are shown in Table 3.

Figure 5 As shown, the comprehensive sensitivity values of the seven input parameters are calculated, and the results are shown in Table 4. The four input parameters with the highest comprehensive sensitivity values are selected, namely, beam width w1, beam height h1, beam thickness d1, and beam length l1.

[0121] In step S06, when multi-objective response surface optimization is performed on the paddy field grader structure, the constructed response surface model is tested. The results are shown in Table 5. The determination coefficient R of each output parameter is 2 Approaching 1, the root mean square error ERMS and the relative maximum absolute error E RMA All of them are close to 0, indicating that the accuracy of the response surface model is high and subsequent optimization can be performed. The optimization objectives are to maximize the first-order natural frequency and the second-order natural frequency of the paddy field grader structure and minimize the structural mass. The first-order and second-order natural frequencies are greater than twice the paddy field ground excitation frequency and the engine excitation frequency, and the range of design variables are set as constraints. The specific settings are shown in Tables 6 and 7. Finally, the multi-objective optimization genetic algorithm (MOGA) is used to optimize and solve the objective function, and the algorithm is configured as shown in Table 8. The initial population size is set to 10,000, the number of new populations generated by sample iteration in each generation is 100, the maximum number of iterations is 20, the allowable deviation is set to 2%, and the maximum allowable Pareto percentage is set to 70%.

[0136] According to the comparison table, the first six natural frequencies after optimization have been significantly improved. The improvement of the first six frequencies has expanded the dynamic stability range of the system, enabling it to operate more stably and withstand higher frequency dynamic loads. The first and second natural frequencies are far away from the external excitation frequency, which greatly reduces the risk of resonance and significantly improves the system's anti-vibration ability. The mass of the grader has also decreased slightly, achieving a balance between overall efficiency and cost.
