Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of assembly equipment, and in particular to an assembly and tightening method and a tightening system for aircraft pipelines. Background Art
[0002] The aircraft piping system is a functional system formed by integrating and fixing conduits, pipe clamps, brackets, clamps and other accessories with system functional products in series or parallel on the fuselage structure. Its supporting rigidity is weak, the system is interconnected, the spatial distribution is extremely complex, the assembly is difficult, and the regulatory requirements are high. To ensure the service reliability and maintenance convenience of the aircraft piping system, the piping system assembly is mainly in the form of threaded connection, and the main assembly is carried out by applying torque, that is, by tightening the outer nut to generate axial preload. Under the action of the axial preload, the conical surface of the conduit and the conical surface of the pipe joint are in contact and squeezed to achieve the interlocking between the sealing surfaces, thereby achieving the sealing performance of the pipeline.
[0003] The preload and assembly specifications of pipeline connections play a significant role in the sealing performance and reliability of aircraft piping systems. Therefore, during aircraft piping assembly, it is necessary to control the preload and assembly specifications of the pipes and connectors. Traditional torque methods can only measure the final tightening torque and cannot monitor the compliance of the pipe assembly process. Furthermore, this method is suitable for tightening bolts with high connection stiffness but is not suitable for tightening the assembly of aircraft pipes with weak support stiffness.
[0004] Aircraft ducts have weak support stiffness and are affected by the narrow working space, requiring a multi-step tightening method. Existing technologies are affected by factors such as torque reaction force, eccentric load, and friction during assembly and tightening. When the applied torque is large, the pipeline will shift or deform during assembly, resulting in the inability to accurately measure the rotation angle of the assembly process, and thus unable to achieve precise and standardized tightening control based on the torque angle method.

[0071] Implementation Method 2
[0072] Reference Figure 2 The present application discloses a method for assembling and tightening aircraft pipes, comprising the following steps:
[0073] It should be noted that this application will provide a detailed description of the technical solutions described in this application by giving examples;
[0074] S1. Obtain a standard angle torque curve according to the specifications and models of the nut to be tightened;
[0075] First, the specifications of the nut to be tightened are determined, and the corresponding standard angle torque curve is retrieved from the database according to the specification parameters of the nut to be tightened;
[0076] It should be noted that the standard angle-torque curve is obtained by performing a tightening test using a nut with the same specifications as the nut to be tightened. It can also be selected from angle-torque curves collected during daily assembly.
[0077] S2. Calculating a standard fitting torque and a standard rotation angle according to the standard rotation angle torque curve;
[0078] S21, obtaining a standard angle torque curve;
[0079] S22, separating the standard rotation angle torque curve into a first-stage standard rotation angle torque curve and a second-stage standard rotation angle torque curve; wherein the first-stage standard rotation angle torque curve indicates a fitting stage, and the second-stage standard rotation angle torque curve indicates an elastic tightening stage;
[0080] Engineering practice shows that nut tightening can be roughly divided into three stages: the screw-in stage, the fitting stage, and the elastic tightening stage. Workers manually divide the standard angle torque curve to obtain a three-end curve. The torque change in the screw-in stage is small and can be ignored.
[0081] The curve of the fitting stage is used as the standard angle torque curve of the first stage, and the curve of the elastic tightening stage is used as the standard angle torque curve of the second stage;
[0082] S23, calculating the slope k0 of the standard angle torque curve of the second stage;
[0083] Based on engineering practice, it is known that in the elastic tightening stage, the torque angle changes in a positive correlation, that is, the standard angle torque curve of the second stage is an inclined straight line. After separating the standard angle torque curve of the second stage, its slope k0 is automatically calculated by a computer;
[0084] S24. Randomly select two adjacent points on the standard angle torque curve of the first stage, and calculate the slope k of the two adjacent points respectively. m+1 and k m ;
[0085] Obtain the first stage standard angle torque curve, randomly select two points on the first stage standard angle torque curve, such as points marked m and m+1, and then calculate the slope k of the two points m+1 and k m ;
[0086] S25, if the slope k m+1 If the judgment formula is satisfied, then the slope k is taken m+1 The torque at the corresponding point is the standard fitting torque. Otherwise, the steps of randomly selecting two adjacent points on the standard rotation angle torque curve of the first stage and calculating the slopes of the two adjacent points are repeated until the standard fitting torque is obtained.
[0087] Retrieve the judgment formula, the expression of the judgment formula is k m+1 -k m ≤0.1, and |k m+1 -k0|≤0.05; where k0 represents the slope of the standard angle torque curve in the second stage;
[0088] If the slope k m+1 If the judgment formula is satisfied, then the slope k is taken m+1 The torque at the corresponding point is the standard fitting torque, and the angle corresponding to the point is output as the standard angle. Otherwise, random points are repeatedly selected until the standard fitting torque is obtained.
[0089] In a specific embodiment, the principle diagram of point calculation is as follows: Figure 3 As shown;
[0090] In a specific embodiment, the slope of the tightening curve at position D meets the requirements, so the fitting torque of the catheter tightening process curve is 8.8 Nm and the rotation angle is 49°; when the fitting torque is set to 8.8 Nm within the range allowable for measurement error, the corresponding reference angle range is 49±5°.
[0091] S3, obtaining an actual angle torque curve of the nut to be tightened;
[0092] S31, setting the initial torque T0;
[0093] The initial torque T0 is determined according to the actual situation. It should be noted that the value range of the initial torque is 1-1.5Nm;
[0094] S32, obtaining a standard angle torque curve, and setting a torque threshold for each tightening step according to the standard angle torque curve and the initial torque T0;
[0095] S321, setting an initial torque, wherein the value range of the initial torque is 1-1.5 Nm;
[0096] It should be noted that the value range of the initial torque is 1-1.5Nm, and the value can be selected within the above range according to actual needs, such as 1.2Nm;
[0097] S322, obtaining a standard fitting torque angle curve;
[0098] S323, dividing the standard fitting torque angle curve into a plurality of tightening steps according to the rotation angle of each tightening step;
[0099] Due to the obstruction of external parts, the tightening angle is limited each time the nut is tightened. For example, the angle of a single tightening step of some nuts is 10°, and the rotation angle of tools such as wrenches used to tighten the nuts is 10°, while others are 15°. The angle of each tightening step is determined according to the actual working conditions.
[0100] S324, respectively obtain the maximum torque T1, T2, ..., T of each tightening step n ; Where n represents the number of each tightening step;
[0101] Obtain the standard fitting torque angle curve of each tightening step respectively, and then obtain the maximum torque T1, T2, ..., T of each tightening step respectively. n ; Where n represents the number of each tightening step;
[0102] S325. Calculate the torque threshold of each tightening step according to the torque threshold calculation formula.
[0103] Get the maximum torque T1, T2, ..., T of each tightening step n ;
[0104] The torque threshold calculation formula is expressed as T n =k*T n-1 ; Where k represents the calculation coefficient, and its value range is 0.7-0.8; T1=k*T0.
[0105] According to the above formula, the torque threshold of each tightening step can be calculated;
[0106] In a specific embodiment, the torque threshold is set as follows: Figure 4 As shown;
[0107] S33 , assembling the nut to be tightened according to the initial torque T0 and the torque thresholds, and collecting an actual rotation angle torque curve of the nut to be tightened.
[0108] Obtain the set initial torque T0 and the calculated torque thresholds, and assemble the nut to be tightened according to the above figures;
[0109] Specifically, if the initial torque is set to 1.2 Nm, when the actual torque detected is greater than 1.2 Nm, the relevant torque parameters and angle parameters begin to be collected and uploaded until the tightening step is completed;
[0110] Then the second tightening step begins, and the torque threshold T1 of the second tightening step is extracted at the same time; when the detected torque value is greater than the torque threshold T1, the relevant torque parameters and angle parameters begin to be collected and uploaded until the tightening step ends;
[0111] All relevant operations of the tightening steps are performed simultaneously to obtain the actual angle-torque curve of the nut to be tightened.
[0112] As the tightening process continues, the torque of the nut will continue to increase. However, when a new tightening step begins, if the data is collected again from the initial torque, the discreteness of the data will increase. Therefore, by setting the torque threshold, some torque values that are too small can be excluded, which not only reduces the amount of data and helps improve the calculation efficiency, but also helps to improve the anti-interference ability of the data, thereby adapting to the tightening characteristics of weak support stiffness pipelines and improving the accuracy of data calculation.
[0113] In a specific embodiment, the actual angle torque curve is as follows: Figure 5 As shown;
[0114] S4. Calculating an actual rotation angle according to the standard fitting torque and the actual rotation angle torque curve;
[0115] S41, obtaining standard fitting torque and actual angle torque curves;
[0116] Obtaining the standard fitting torque obtained in step S25 and the actual angle torque curve obtained in step S3;
[0117] S42, obtaining a marking point on the actual rotation angle torque curve according to the standard fitting torque;
[0118] A point is taken on the actual angle torque curve according to the standard fitting torque, and the calculated point is the marking point;
[0119] S43: Output the turning angle of the marked point as the actual turning angle.
[0120] Calculate the rotation angle of the marked point and output it as the actual rotation angle;
[0121] That is, the standard fitting torque calculated in step S25 is 8.8 Nm. Figure 4 The corresponding rotation angle is 73°;
[0122] S5. Compare the actual rotation angle with the standard rotation angle to determine whether the nut to be tightened is tightened in accordance with the standard.
[0123] S51, setting a deviation redundancy value;
[0124] Set the deviation redundancy value according to actual needs, such as the deviation redundancy is +5 and -5°;
[0125] S52, calculating an upper deviation value and a lower deviation value of the turning angle according to the deviation redundancy value and the standard turning angle;
[0126] The upper deviation value and the lower deviation value of the angle are calculated respectively by combining the standard angle and the deviation redundancy value;
[0127] S53: If the actual rotation angle is between the upper rotation angle deviation value and the lower rotation angle deviation value, it is determined that the assembly of the nut to be tightened meets the specification; otherwise, it is determined that it does not meet the specification.
[0128] In a specific embodiment, the rotation angle of 73° is obviously not within the range of 49±5°, so the assembly does not meet the specifications.
[0129] Compared with the existing technology, a series of parameters can be read from the standard angle torque curve to determine whether the tightening process is standard, such as the standard fitting torque and standard angle. These standard parameters can quickly determine whether the actual torque curve during the nut tightening process is qualified, that is, whether the nut tightening process meets the standards, thereby improving the standardization of assembly.
[0130] Secondly, since the technical solution described in this application can effectively improve the standardization of nut assembly, it can effectively improve the assembly quality of pipes in narrow spaces. In particular, for narrow spaces and pipes with weak support stiffness, this application can avoid the problem of part damage caused by excessive torque by effectively controlling the torque.
[0131] Finally, since the actual angle torque curve is collected in real time during the actual tightening process of the nut, the standard fitting torque and standard angle are used to determine whether the actual angle torque curve is qualified in real time, thereby effectively improving the real-time performance of nut tightening monitoring. In this way, an alarm is issued as soon as an abnormality in the assembly process is discovered, and the nut is loosened in the reverse direction and readjusted before tightening again, which increases the redundancy in the bolt assembly process and is conducive to improving the assembly quality.
[0132] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present application and do not limit the patent scope of the present application. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present application specification and drawings, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
