Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of film thickness measurement, and in particular relates to an angle zeroing adaptive compensation device and method for capacitive film thickness measurement. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, with the rapid advancement of science and technology, the application areas of film products have been continuously expanding, and they are now found in a wide range of industries, including agriculture, printing, packaging, and insulation materials. The demand for films in these industries has not only continued to rise in quantity, but also placed higher demands on quality and technical content. The market demand is particularly strong for high-quality, high-tech films with excellent performance. Against this backdrop, the film production industry has ushered in unprecedented development opportunities, achieving significant increases in both production scale and technical level. However, despite this considerable scale of film production capacity, the problem of online measurement of film thickness uniformity during production has remained elusive.
[0003] In the space environment, spacecraft face the rigors of extreme temperature fluctuations, high vacuum conditions, strong radiation, and other harsh conditions, making the reliability of their sealing components extremely important. As a key sealing material, the uniformity and accuracy of the thickness of fluororubber film is directly related to the quality of the sealing performance. If the film thickness becomes uneven or deviates from the design requirements, it is very likely to cause seal failure, leading to internal gas leakage or intrusion of materials from the external space environment, seriously threatening the normal operation of the spacecraft and even endangering the safety of the entire space mission. Therefore, accurately measuring the thickness of fluororubber film and promptly identifying and addressing potential thickness anomalies is crucial to ensuring the sealing and safety of spacecraft.
[0004] During the manufacturing process of spacecraft sealing components, measuring the thickness of fluororubber films is undoubtedly a core element of quality control. Real-time monitoring of film thickness can promptly identify process issues, such as uneven film coating and thickness variations during vulcanization, allowing targeted adjustments and optimization of the production process to ensure product quality and consistency. Furthermore, for mass-produced sealing components, the application of thickness inspection technology ensures that every component strictly meets design requirements, effectively reducing product scrap rates due to thickness deviations, thereby lowering production costs and improving production efficiency.
[0005] Film thickness uniformity is a key quality indicator. For single-layer films, uneven thickness directly impacts key properties such as tear resistance, impact resistance, and barrier properties. For composite films, thickness uniformity is even more critical, as uneven thickness in any single layer can lead to quality defects in the entire composite, significantly reducing the yield of high-quality film. Therefore, testing film thickness uniformity and compliance with standards has become a critical monitoring item on film production lines and a key technology essential for producing high-quality films.
[0006] In the existing film thickness detection technology, mechanical leveling technology uses mechanical structures such as guide rails, sliders, and servo motors to force the electrode plate to remain parallel to the measured surface. However, this method is prone to mechanical wear in a dynamic vibration environment, and the response speed is less than 10 milliseconds, making it difficult to adapt to the requirements of high-speed production lines. Static angle calibration is based on the pre-set angle coefficient of the standard plane, but this method assumes that the angle is fixed and cannot effectively compensate for real-time angle changes that may occur during the operation of the production line. Although multi-sensor fusion compensation technology improves measurement accuracy by combining equipment such as laser displacement sensors or inclinometers, it also increases the complexity and cost of the system. Fixed angle model compensation is corrected through theoretical formulas, but it requires a preset angle and cannot cope with unknown angle deviations.
[0007] Although existing thin film thickness detection technologies have improved detection accuracy to a certain extent through mechanical adjustment, temperature compensation, dielectric constant correction and dynamic filtering algorithms, these technologies still have many shortcomings, such as poor dynamic adaptability, reliance on external benchmarks and additional equipment, etc. For example, thin film defect detection technology faces problems such as slow detection speed, low accuracy, easy fatigue and high missed detection rate in application. In addition, thin film thermal property testing technology has obvious limitations in thermal property testing of nanoscale thin films. Traditional thermal property testing instruments based on heat detection are difficult to meet the requirements of high sensitivity and non-destructive testing. Although online film thickness measuring instruments provide real-time and high-precision solutions, they still need to be further optimized and improved in terms of application scope and efficiency improvement.

[0042] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0043] The basic theory of the application of the present invention is explained as follows: In order to meet the specific requirements of dynamic measurement and effectively overcome the many shortcomings inherent in traditional parallel plate capacitance sensors, the present invention places the two plates of the capacitance sensor in the same plane. In this way, the area above the plane where the two plates are located naturally forms the working interval of the sensor, and this specific plane is defined as the measuring surface. In actual operation, the thin film material to be measured is placed directly above the two parallel plates. The result of this is that the presence of the film will directly change the dielectric constant of the working interval, which in turn leads to a corresponding change in capacitance. Based on this principle, a clear functional relationship is established between the capacitance value of the capacitance sensor and the thickness of the film. By accurately measuring the change in capacitance value, the actual thickness value of the film can be accurately detected. The specific measurement principle can be obtained by Figure 1 For intuitive display, Figure 1In the diagram, A and B represent the two measuring plates, the x-axis indicates the position of the measuring surface, and M indicates the location of the object to be measured. This design not only improves measurement accuracy and stability, but also greatly expands the application range of capacitive sensors.
[0044] Monolithic capacitive sensors utilize an innovative coplanar plate design, placing the two plates on the same plane—the measurement surface. This design allows the electric field between the plates to be distributed through edge effects, thus forming a working interval. When the film being measured approaches the sensor's surface, the film's dielectric properties affect the equivalent dielectric constant of the working interval, thereby changing key parameters such as the plate shape, spacing, and area. When the film is in close contact with the sensor surface, it changes the dielectric constant of the working interval, thereby changing the capacitance value. In this way, monolithic capacitive sensors can accurately detect the thickness of the film being measured. The unique design of this sensor provides high sensitivity and accuracy in measuring film thickness, leading to its widespread application in industrial production.

[0047] film capacitors for:
[0048]
[0049] Assume that the total capacitance between the probe and the lower plate is , then:
[0050]
[0051] in is the dielectric constant of vacuum, is the dielectric constant of the film material, S is the coverage area of the plate, d is the film thickness, and H is the distance from the sensor to the film. , H, S are all constants, if it is known , the film thickness d of the film being tested can be calculated. The thickness of a film capacitor directly affects its capacitance, with thinner films increasing the capacitance. Using a capacitive sensor measurement circuit, a voltage value related to the film thickness can be obtained. A microprocessor processes this data to accurately determine the current film thickness.
[0052] See also Figure 2 , an angle zeroing adaptive compensation device for capacitive film thickness measurement, comprising:
[0053] A capacitive sensor for measuring film thickness, wherein a blowing device 11 is installed on the sensor probe 2 of the capacitive sensor;
[0054] A position compensation mechanism that drives the capacitive sensor to move; the position compensation mechanism includes a compensation execution unit and a compensation system;
[0055] A deflection sensor for detecting displacement of a capacitive sensor; wherein:
[0056] The capacitive sensor is installed on the power output part of the compensation execution part; the compensation system receives the detection signal of the offset sensor and controls the action of the compensation execution part according to the detection signal and the compensation logic.
[0057] The operating principle of the present invention is as follows: a film to be tested is placed on a test stand and air is blown through it using an air blowing device. When air is blown through the film using a capacitive sensor, the airflow creates a gap between the film and the capacitive sensor. Due to the accelerated airflow, the static pressure in this area decreases significantly due to the Bernoulli effect. The air outside the film is at atmospheric pressure, resulting in a relatively high static pressure. On the inside of the film, near the sensor, the static pressure decreases significantly due to the high-speed airflow. This pressure difference causes the film to move toward the low-pressure area (the sensor surface) and ultimately adhere to the sensor probe 2 of the capacitive sensor. Once the film contacts the surface (detection surface) of the sensor probe 2, the airflow creates a stable low-pressure area between the film and the capacitive sensor, further enhancing the adhesion effect. At this point, the film is firmly adhered to the surface of the sensor probe 2. This design effectively reduces wrinkling of the film caused by its own characteristics or external factors, resulting in a smoother surface and avoiding measurement errors caused by wrinkles.
[0058] Once the film is adsorbed onto the surface of the sensor probe 2, the system gradually reaches a state of dynamic equilibrium. The adsorption force attempts to pull the film further toward the surface of the sensor probe 2, while the thrust resists the adsorption force, preventing the film from getting too close to the sensor probe 2.
[0059]
[0060] When these two forces are equal, the film will be stably attached to the surface of the sensor probe 2 and will not move or detach. Figure 2 shown.
[0061] Environmental changes (such as vibration, air pressure fluctuations, or temperature variations) can cause the sensor arm to move, affecting the gap between the membrane and sensor probe 2. As the arm moves forward, it exerts a forward thrust on the membrane. This thrust causes the membrane to vary in distance from the sensor probe 2. If the gap is too small, the membrane may come too close to the surface of the sensor probe 2, potentially causing damage. If the gap is too large, the detection signal will weaken, reducing measurement accuracy. To mitigate measurement errors caused by arm movement, a displacement compensation module is embedded in the device. This module applies a reverse pull to effectively offset the arm's forward thrust on the membrane.
[0062]
[0063] The displacement compensation module adjusts the tension to maintain a dynamic balance between the film and the sensor. This ensures that the film is neither pushed too close to the sensor due to thrust, nor out of the optimal detection range due to excessive gaps.
[0064] To monitor the distance between the film and the sensor in real time and dynamically adjust the tension, the displacement compensation module works in conjunction with a closed-loop control system. This system compares the system output with the desired output and adjusts the system input accordingly to minimize output errors. This system continuously monitors the gap between the film and the sensor and adjusts the tension based on the actual deviation to maintain a constant gap, effectively reducing measurement errors.
[0065] In order to solve the problem of distance change between the detection film and the sensor caused by external force, a dual-axis angle sensor is integrated at the sensor bracket shaft. The angle sensor is used to monitor the angle change of the sensor bracket in real time. When the sensor bracket tilts, the angle sensor outputs the corresponding angle value. Based on this angle value, PID control generates a reverse compensation displacement command, driving the sensor bracket to perform the corresponding reset action to offset the displacement deviation caused by external forces. This process is completed collaboratively by the displacement calculation module and the drive control module, forming a closed-loop control system through real-time interaction, ensuring that the gap between the capacitive sensor and the film to be detected remains constant.
[0066] The present invention constructs a complete set of adaptive compensation mechanisms by organically combining real-time angle monitoring, precise displacement calculation and dynamic compensation control. This mechanism can effectively eliminate the influence of external interference on the detection results, significantly improve the stability and accuracy of the detection system, and is particularly suitable for the field of high-precision detection. Specifically, the system continuously monitors the angle changes of the bracket with the help of an angle sensor, and uses trigonometric functions to quickly calculate the corresponding vertical displacement, ensuring that the compensation instructions can respond to external interference in real time, and effectively prevent detection errors caused by delays or errors. This technical solution adopts a closed-loop control system to convert angle changes into precise displacement compensation instructions, solving the error accumulation problem that may exist in traditional open-loop control. Regardless of how the direction or size of the external force interference fluctuates, the system can flexibly adjust the position of the capacitive sensor through a dynamic compensation mechanism to ensure that the detection distance always remains stable. This adaptive angle compensation technology not only realizes the dynamic adjustment of the detection distance, but also fundamentally solves the problem of detection errors caused by external force interference through the synergistic effect of real-time monitoring, precise calculation and closed-loop control.

[0079] S3 specifically includes: the angle sensor 10 can be used to detect the displacement of the capacitive sensor in real time; in S4, the compensation system first determines whether the output value of the angle sensor 10 is within the threshold range. If it is not within the threshold range, the compensation logic is started, otherwise the compensation logic is not started.
[0080] When the compensation logic is started, the following steps are performed:
[0081] S5. Calculate the deviation based on the output value of the angle sensor 10, and calculate the output value based on the deviation. The output is the full-speed running trend value of the electric control slide, and the range is [-10, 10].
[0082] S6, MCU divides the PID output value into three intervals to control the motor push rod movement: in the first interval [-10, -3], the motor drives the push rod forward; in the second interval (3, 10], the motor drives the push rod backward; in the third interval [-3, 3], the motor stops running and maintains the current position;

[0086] S10: After the detection is completed, the detection result is output.
[0087] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 ,from Figure 4 It can be seen that after the sensor probe is offset by 5°, the measurement value fluctuates by about 13 μm. Figure 5 It can be seen that after adding PID compensation (P takes 15, I takes 0.5, D takes 0.1), Figure 5 It can be seen that the fluctuation range of the measurement data has been significantly improved, and the fluctuation range is about 3um.
