Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of arc spring detection, and in particular to an arc spring freedom angle measuring device and a measuring process. BACKGROUND

[0002] A dual-mass flywheel is a structure applied in the power transmission system of an automobile, which can effectively isolate the torsional vibration of the crankshaft of an engine. The spring assembly in the cavity of the dual-mass flywheel is generally an arc spring. If the angle (radian) of the arc spring does not meet the standard, the spring axis will tilt during the use of the dual-mass flywheel, and a transverse component will be generated during work, which will aggravate the friction or collision of the components, and will cause abnormal noise, accelerate the wear of the spring, and even cause the vehicle transmission and damping to deviate or the vehicle body to roll over uncontrollably. The end faces of the two ends of the arc spring should be perpendicular to the axis direction. If they are not perpendicular, the stress of the arc spring will be affected, and the stress of the spring will also be tilted. Therefore, it is necessary to detect the perpendicularity of the end faces of the spring. At the same time, in order to ensure that the arc spring will deform along the axis direction, each turn of the spring should be distributed along the axis, that is, the planar fit degree of the turns of the spring needs to be detected.

[0003] In the prior art, when detecting the planar fit degree of the turns of the arc spring, the arc spring is placed flat on a plane, and whether each turn of the spring is fitted with the plane is observed by the naked eye, or a thin sheet is inserted below to see whether the arc spring is displaced during the insertion of the thin sheet. The above methods are not accurate enough, and cannot quantify the planar fit degree of each turn of the arc spring, which is not conducive to quality control management in the production process.

[0004] An invention patent with publication number CN113624104B discloses a device for detecting the angle and perpendicularity of an arc spring. When detecting the angle, a limiting pin is first installed into a positioning hole, then a pull rod is pulled to make the clamping plate retreat, a standard piece is placed into the accommodating space of the arc spring between the spring seat and the clamping plate, the left end of the standard piece abuts against the limiting pin, the rotating table is rotated clockwise, the standard piece approaches the angle detection piece, the second hand wheel is rotated to adjust the position of the angle detection piece and the standard piece, the angle detection piece and the end face of the standard piece are tightly aligned, then the second slide rail seat and the rotating table are fixed. The dial gauge is reset to zero, the standard piece is taken out, then the clamping plate is used again to clamp the arc spring to be detected, the reading of the dial gauge is obtained, then the angle is converted according to the conversion table, and the detection is completed. In this structure and method, the arc spring is placed in the rotating table for rotation. During the rotation, the arc spring may be displaced to affect the measurement result, and it is difficult to judge by the naked eye whether the angle detection piece and the end face of the arc spring are exactly aligned. If there is burr on the end of the arc spring, the measured angle will be larger. SUMMARY

[0058] S3, compare the reading measured in S2 with the reading recorded in S1, if the reading gap is large, the end of the spring to be measured and the touch plate 7 are not completely attached, indicating that the end face of the spring to be measured has burrs or end face tilt and other problems, which need to be taken out for processing, if the reading gap is within the set range, it proves that the touch plate 7 and the end face of the spring to be measured are attached, at this time the reading displayed by the angle sensor 5 is the angle difference between the spring to be measured and the standard part, which can be obtained by calculation The angle of the spring to be measured;

[0059] S4, twist the positioning bolt 4b, the end of the positioning bolt 4b is close to the surface of the workbench 1, the position of the touch rod 4 is fixed, then the measuring part 6 is pushed, the measuring part 6 moves along the sliding groove 2c to the direction of the touch plate 7, the rotating roller 6e is always attached to the top of the spring to be measured under the action of the first spring 6d, with the movement of the measuring part 6, the rotating roller 6e moves up and down on the top of the spring to be measured, the movable rod 6b moves up and down together, the displacement sensor 6f records the position of the movable rod 6b moving up and down, with the movement of the measuring part 6, the current recorded by the current sensor 9 gradually increases, the current reading corresponds to the corresponding turn of the spring to be measured, the reading of the displacement sensor 6f corresponds to the height of the turn, when the reading of the displacement sensor 6f is abnormal, it indicates that the height position of the turn of the spring to be measured is abnormal, combined with the degree recorded by the current sensor 9, the height abnormal turn position can be positioned.

[0064] If the difference is within the set range, it proves that the touch plate 7 is in good contact with the end face of the measured spring, and the end face of the measured spring is qualified, at this time the rotary positioning bolt 4b is screwed down, the end of the positioning bolt 4b is in contact with the surface of the workbench 1, and the positions of the touch rod 4 and the touch plate 7 are fixed;

[0065] After the touch plate 7 is in contact with the end face of the measured spring, a value will be displayed on the angle sensor 5, which is the angle difference between the measured spring and the standard part, which can be directly calculated by addition and subtraction to obtain the angle value of the measured spring;

[0066] When the position of the touch plate 7 is fixed, the touch plate 7 and the limiting pin 2b will clamp the measured spring from both ends, at this time the measuring element 6 is moved, the measuring element 6 moves from one end to the other end, the movable rod 6b and the rotating roller 6e repeatedly move up and down on the top of the measured spring, and the displacement sensor 6f records the value of the up and down movement of the movable rod 6b, after the measuring element 6 moves to the end point, the highest point of the movable rod 6b recorded by the displacement sensor 6f should correspond to each turn of the measured spring, when a certain value is recorded, it proves that the turn position is high, and the spring axis is deviated;

[0067] At the same time, since the measuring element 6, the current sensor 9, the first power supply 10, the touch plate 7, and the measured spring form a circuit path, as the measuring element 6 continuously moves, the resistance provided by the measured spring in the circuit continuously decreases, and the current gradually increases, the current change data recorded by the current sensor 9 can correspond to the turn position of the arc spring, when the height position of the turn is not qualified, the corresponding spring turn position can be found through the current value recorded by the current sensor 9. When the measuring element 6 moves forward, not only the height of each turn of the measured spring is detected, but the current sensor 9 also changes, positioning the position of the measuring element, so that when an abnormal turn height is detected, the position of the abnormal turn can be quickly judged.

[0068] In order to achieve the technical effect that as the measuring element 6 moves, the resistance provided by the measured spring in the circuit continuously decreases and the current gradually increases, the measuring element 6 and the fixed element 2 are insulated, the rotating roller 6e on the measuring element 2 is a conductor and can be connected in circuit with the turn of the measured spring directly below the rotating roller 6e.

[0069] It should be understood that the devices and principles for converting the measurement electrical signals of the angle sensor 5, the current sensor 9, the displacement sensor 6f into digital display and recording are common techniques in the art and will not be described in more detail here.

[0070] The end of the positioning bolt 4b, the adjusting bolt 8b2 and the fastening bolt 11c can be provided with anti-skid rubber to increase the fixing effect.

[0071] It should be noted that the various embodiments described in the specification are described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the embodiments can be mutually referred to.

[0072] The above description is only a description of the preferred embodiments of the present application, and is not any limitation on the scope of the present application. Any modification or modification made by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the above disclosure is within the protection scope of the claims.
