Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of rotary joint test bench structures, in particular to a test bench used for measuring joints of hydraulic humanoid robots, and specifically to a hydraulic integrated joint test bench. Background Art

[0002] The robot rotary joint test bench is a key piece of equipment in robot development and testing, primarily used to evaluate the performance, reliability, and lifespan of rotary joints. Currently, there are a wide variety of commercialized robot modular joint products, with the main differences reflected in control algorithms and mechanical structure design (such as drive layout, reducer type, etc.). In terms of joint testing and research, the University of Texas at Austin has developed a large-scale joint test bench that visually displays the optimal working range of joints through performance graphs; Harbin Institute of Technology has conducted tests on space manipulator joints and studied a method for dynamic parameter identification; Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications has developed a test platform based on LabWindows / CVI, verified the feasibility of intelligent control algorithms, and tested joint performance under different loads; Beijing University of Technology has developed a small joint testing machine that supports integrated measurement of transmission performance, electrical parameters, and mechanical parameters, and has developed automated testing software to provide a reference for modular joint testing standards.

[0003] Most of the existing testing technologies mentioned above test the reducer or motor separately, which cannot fully evaluate the comprehensive performance of the joint. In addition, the test parameters are single and it is difficult to reflect the overall performance under actual working conditions. In addition, since the existing rotary joint test bench is mainly for electrically driven joints, the structural design of the test bench does not provide suitable layout space for the oil pipeline. The clamping method of the joint and the selection of connectors cannot meet the testing requirements of large torque. Therefore, it is crucial to design a test bench for measuring hydraulic integrated joints by improving the structure, which is crucial for conducting comprehensive performance testing and optimization research on modular hydraulic joints.

[0004] Based on the above analysis, this study proposes a design scheme for a hydraulic integrated joint test bench, which aims to break through the limitations of existing joint testing, meet the requirements of high dynamics, large loads, and complex environments, and provide key support for the performance improvement and reliability design of hydraulically driven robots.

[0059] Test bench 9, the top plate of the test bench 9 is provided with a plurality of evenly arranged fine threaded holes;

[0060] The dynamometer base plate 10 is installed at the bottom of the magnetic powder dynamometer 8. The dynamometer base plate 10 is provided with base plate connecting holes corresponding to the fine threaded holes. The dynamometer base plate 10 is detachably connected to the top table plate of the test bench 9 by screws. With such an arrangement, the split dynamometer base plate 10 is designed so that it can be assembled flexibly according to the simulation of different working conditions, saving table space. The designed hydraulic integrated joint test bench not only realizes the testing requirements of the hydraulic integrated joint for the first time, but also simplifies the test bench structure, and can reflect the overall performance under actual working conditions through different assembly forms. Other components and connection relationships are the same as those in the first specific embodiment.

[0061] In this embodiment, the magnetic powder dynamometer 8 is positioned at the end. The dynamometer loading module 12 adjusts the excitation current in real time, enabling rapid changes in load torque (with a response time of approximately tens of milliseconds) to simulate variable load scenarios (such as sudden load addition and removal) encountered in actual operating conditions.

The mounting surface on the other end of the joint mounting plate 2 features a cross-shaped groove that mates with the cross-shaped protrusion on the outer shell of the hydraulic joint 1 being tested, limiting circumferential rotation of the outer shell of the tested hydraulic joint 1. With this arrangement, the tested hydraulic joint 1 is secured to the joint bracket 3 via a fixing screw 18 and a pressure plate 19. Axial position adjustment is achieved via a T-nut 21 and guide rail 15. Other components and connections are identical to those in Specific Embodiments 1, 2, or 3.

[0070] In this embodiment, a cross-shaped groove is provided on the joint mounting plate 2 to limit the rotation of the cylindrical shell of the hydraulic joint 1 under test.

The entire system uses the EtherCAT bus to achieve high-speed real-time communication between the tested hydraulic joint 1, magnetic powder dynamometer 8 and the host computer. The PLC precisely controls the motion process, and the host computer software based on the TwinCAT platform completes the issuance of test instructions, data visualization and full-process monitoring, forming a complete closed-loop test system.
