Description

[0002] Thin sheet materials (both metal and non-metal) are increasingly used in applications such as aircraft skins, automotive panels, silicon steel sheets, and PCB substrates. However, the presence of residual stress within thin sheets poses a significant challenge, hindering their processing accuracy and performance. Residual stress, typically generated during material processing (such as cold rolling, heat treatment, and welding), can cause sheet warping during subsequent sheet removal processes like machining, milling, and etching, further impacting the dimensional accuracy and process quality of the finished product.

[0003] At present, the main methods for testing residual stress inside thin plates include X-ray diffraction, neutron diffraction, laser diffraction, etc. These methods mainly focus on testing residual stress on the surface or near-surface area of ​​thin plates. There is a lack of effective means for testing full-thickness residual stress, especially for quantitative evaluation of residual stress fluctuations between different batches of materials. The existing X-ray diffraction and neutron diffraction methods can test residual stress inside materials, but the equipment is expensive, the operation is complicated, and the test accuracy is limited by the thickness and surface roughness of the material. Although the laser diffraction method has the advantages of being non-contact and fast, it can only test surface residual stress and has limited effect on testing full-thickness residual stress.

[0004] In addition, the existing technology lacks high-efficiency testing equipment for testing the residual stress of thin plates. Some integrated testing equipment is usually complex in structure, cumbersome to operate, and difficult to achieve full automation, resulting in low testing efficiency and difficulty in meeting the needs of industrial large-scale testing.

[0005] Therefore, the existing testing devices for residual stress inside thin plates have the following major disadvantages: 1. Low testing efficiency: The existing testing equipment has a complex structure and cumbersome operation, making it difficult to achieve fully automated testing and unsuitable for industrial large-scale testing; 2. High equipment cost: The equipment required for some testing methods is expensive and complex to operate, resulting in high testing costs; 3. Lack of integrated design: The existing testing equipment makes it difficult to achieve precise control of cutting parameters, and there is a lack of cooling and debris collection systems during the test process, which affects test accuracy and equipment maintenance.

[0046] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the present invention and its application or use. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0047] like Figures 1 to 14As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a thin plate residual stress testing device, comprising: a clamping support assembly 10, a cutting assembly 20 and a laser testing assembly 30; the clamping support assembly 10 includes at least one clamping test structure 11, the clamping test structure 11 includes a test bench 12, a first clamping portion 13, a second clamping portion 14 and a bottom support portion 15; the test bench 12 has a test cavity 121 inside, and the test bench 12 also has a test inlet 122 connected to the test cavity 121, at least a portion of the first clamping portion 13, the second clamping portion 14 and the bottom support portion 15 are respectively arranged in the test cavity 121, and the second clamping portion 13, the second clamping portion 14 and the bottom support portion 15 are respectively arranged in the test cavity 121. A clamping portion 13 is provided at the test inlet 122; the thin plate 40 to be tested enters the test cavity 121 from the test inlet 122 along its length direction, and the two ends of the thin plate 40 to be tested along its length direction are respectively a first end 41 and a second end 42, the first end 41 is close to the test inlet 122, and the bottom support portion 15 is used to support the bottom of the thin plate 40 to be tested; the first clamping portion 13 is used to fix the first end 41; the second clamping portion 14 is used to fix the second end 42; the cutting assembly 20 is used to perform grooves of different depths on the thin plate 40 to be tested; the laser testing assembly 30 is used to detect the warping deformation of the thin plate 40 to be tested.

[0048] The present invention sets a clamping support component 10, a cutting component 20 and a laser testing component 30 to work together, and uses a simple structure to realize the fixation, cutting and internal residual stress detection of the thin plate 40 to be detected; the present invention is based on the detection principle of the grooving method and combines relevant structures to realize efficient automatic measurement of the internal residual stress of the thin plate 40 to be detected, and gradually releases the internal stress of the material by cutting a series of grooves on the thin plate 40 to be detected, and measures the warping deformation caused by the stress release. Then, based on the initial deformation data and multiple cutting deformation data obtained after multiple groovings of different depths, the residual stress inside the thin plate 40 to be detected is calculated. Based on different grooving depths, lengths and widths, and according to the relationship between the plate thickness, grooving depth and warping deformation, the quantitative characterization of the residual stress from the surface to the core of the thin plate is realized, and then the quantitative test of the residual stress from the surface to the inside of the thin plate 40 to be detected is realized. The thin plate residual stress testing device proposed in the present invention can not only test surface residual stress, but also test residual stress throughout the thickness direction. The present invention can quickly assess the magnitude of residual stress within the thin plate 40 to be tested, as well as the fluctuation of residual stress between different batches of materials, thereby achieving effective monitoring of residual stress in multiple batches of thin plates, helping to establish thin plate residual stress control standards and improve the uniformity of residual stress in thin plate materials. The present invention has a simple structure and low cost, making it easy to assemble and subsequently maintain. It solves the problems of low testing efficiency, complex structure, and high equipment cost in the thin plate residual stress testing device of the prior art. It can achieve fully automated testing, improve the testing efficiency of large batches of thin plates, effectively meet the needs of industrial large-scale thin plate residual stress testing, and is suitable for large-scale promotion and use.

[0049] Specifically, before the thin plate 40 to be tested is grooved, the second clamping portion 14 clamps the second end 42, the first clamping portion 13 is separated from the first end 41, and the bottom support portion 15 is separated from the bottom of the thin plate 40 to be tested, so that the first end 41 of the thin plate 40 to be tested is suspended in the air, and the laser testing assembly 30 detects the warping deformation of the thin plate 40 to be tested at this time to obtain initial deformation data; when the thin plate 40 to be tested is grooved, the second clamping portion 14 clamps the second end 42, the first clamping portion 13 fixes the first end 41, and the bottom support portion 15 supports the thin plate 40 to be tested. Bottom; after the thin plate 40 to be tested is grooved once, the second clamping portion 14 clamps the second end 42, the first clamping portion 13 is separated from the first end 41, and the bottom supporting portion 15 is separated from the bottom of the thin plate 40 to be tested, so that the first end 41 of the thin plate 40 to be tested after cutting is suspended, and the laser testing component 30 detects the warping deformation of the thin plate 40 to be tested at this time to obtain a cutting deformation data; based on the initial deformation data and multiple cutting deformation data obtained after multiple grooves of different depths, the residual stress inside the thin plate 40 to be tested is calculated.

[0050] Through the coordinated action of the clamping support assembly 10, the cutting assembly 20 and the laser testing assembly 30, an accurate test of the residual stress inside the thin plate is achieved; the clamping support assembly 10 ensures the stable fixation of the thin plate during the test, the cutting assembly 20 can perform precise grooving operations, and the laser testing assembly 30 can monitor the warping deformation of the thin plate in real time, providing accurate data for subsequent stress calculations. Based on the principle of the grooving method, by grooving at different depths of the thin plate, the warping changes of the thin plate before and after grooving are observed and measured, thereby calculating the distribution of internal residual stress. The above technical solution can realize efficient and automatic measurement of residual stress inside the thin plate, solves the problems of low test efficiency and complex structure in the existing technology, and improves the accuracy and efficiency of the test. In other embodiments, the test accuracy can be further improved by optimizing the cutting parameters of the cutting assembly 20, such as cutting speed and cutting path.

[0051] like Figure 1 、 Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the second clamping part 14 includes a pressure head 141 and a second limiting plate 142; the second limiting plate 142 is fixedly arranged on the test bench 12, and the second limiting plate 142 has a second limiting groove arranged in the vertical direction, and a part of the pressure head 141 is slidably limited with the inner wall of the second limiting groove; when there are multiple clamping test structures 11, the clamping support assembly 10 also includes a second driving part 16, and the second driving part 16 is simultaneously driven and connected to the pressure heads 141 of multiple clamping test structures 11 to drive the multiple pressure heads 141 to reciprocate in the vertical direction at the same time, so as to approach or move away from the second end 42 at the same time.

[0052] By providing the second limiting plate 142 and the second driving unit 16, the second ends 42 of the plurality of thin plates can be fixed and released synchronously, thereby improving the batch processing capacity of the test. The second limiting groove on the second limiting plate 142 ensures the precise movement of the pressure head 141 in the vertical direction, while the second driving unit 16 realizes the unified control of the plurality of pressure heads 141, thereby ensuring the consistency and accuracy of the test. This arrangement makes the test process more efficient, and can process multiple thin plates at the same time, greatly improving the test efficiency. In other embodiments, by increasing the driving capacity of the first driving unit 132, faster fixing and release of the first end 41 can be achieved, thereby further improving the test speed.

[0053] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the second driving unit 16 includes two electric pull rods 161 and a pressure plate 162. The two electric pull rods 161 are respectively connected to the two ends of the pressure plate 162 to simultaneously drive the pressure plate 162 to move up and down; the pressure plate 162 is respectively connected to the pressure heads 141 of multiple clamping test structures 11 to drive multiple pressure heads 141 to reciprocate in the vertical direction at the same time.

[0054] The combined use of the electric pull rod 161 and the pressure plate 162 realizes the synchronous control of multiple pressure heads 141, ensuring stability and consistency during the test process. The electric pull rod 161 can ensure the smooth lifting and lowering of the pressure plate 162 through precise motor control, thereby driving the synchronous movement of multiple pressure heads 141 and avoiding errors caused by manual operation. The above technical solution improves the degree of automation of the test, reduces manual intervention, and makes the test process more efficient and accurate. In other embodiments, a hydraulic drive system can also be used instead of the electric pull rod 161 to provide greater driving force, which is suitable for testing thicker or harder sheet materials.

[0069] The present invention also provides a method for testing residual stress of a thin plate, which is applied to the above-mentioned thin plate residual stress testing device, and the thin plate residual stress testing method also includes the following steps: S1, clamping and fixing the second end 42, and allowing the first end 41 to be suspended in the air, detecting the warping deformation of the thin plate 40 to be tested at this time, and obtaining initial deformation data; S2, clamping and fixing the second end 42 and the first end 41, and supporting the bottom of the thin plate 40 to be tested, and then completing a groove on the thin plate 40 to be tested with a set depth and a set length.

[0070] The testing method proposed in the present invention realizes a comprehensive test of the residual stress inside the thin plate through precise clamping, cutting and measuring steps. By cutting grooves at different depths in the thin plate, observing and measuring the warping changes of the thin plate before and after the cutting, the residual stress at the cutting position is calculated according to the stress release model of the elastic theory or plasticity theory, thereby determining the residual stress distribution at different depths. In terms of effect, the above-mentioned testing method can provide residual stress distribution information from the surface to the core of the thin plate, which is very important for understanding the performance of the thin plate material during the manufacturing and processing process, and helps to improve the processing technology, reduce or control the residual stress in the thin plate material, and improve product quality. In other embodiments, the efficiency and accuracy of the test can be further improved by optimizing the order and parameters of the test steps, which is suitable for occasions with higher requirements for test speed and accuracy.

[0071] It should be noted that in one specific embodiment of the present invention, the existing slitting method is used to measure the internal residual stress of a thin plate. A series of notches are cut into the plate to gradually release the internal stress, allowing the plate's warpage caused by this stress release to be observed and measured. This method provides information on the residual stress distribution from the surface to the core of the plate, which is crucial for understanding the performance of thin plate materials during manufacturing and processing. The following is a detailed description of the internal residual stress measurement process for a thin plate in one specific embodiment of the present invention: 1. Preparation: First, the thin plate specimen must be secured to a test platform to ensure a stable position during the slitting process, preventing any external forces from interfering with the test results. In the unslitting state, a high-precision measurement tool (such as a laser displacement sensor 31) is used to measure the plate's initial deformation, including flatness and curvature, which serves as a benchmark for subsequent analysis. 2. Slitting: The slitting path and depth are designed based on the location and depth of the residual stress to be measured. The grooving depth typically begins at the surface and gradually increases toward the center, allowing for measurement of stress variations from the surface to the center. A series of grooves are cut into the sheet along a designed path using precision cutting tools (such as high-precision wire-cut machines or CNC machines). Extreme care is required during the cutting process to avoid introducing additional processing stresses or damaging the specimen. Cutting conditions must be controlled: cutting speed, cutting force, and cooling conditions must be controlled during grooving to ensure that the cutting process does not significantly affect the measurement results. 3. Deformation measurement phase: After each grooving pass, the sheet warpage is measured immediately using the same high-precision measuring tool. Deformation measurements typically include changes in thickness, curvature, and inclination. The sheet deformation after each grooving pass is recorded and used in subsequent stress calculations. 4. Data analysis phase: Analysis of sheet deformation requires applying stress release models based on elastic or plastic theory. This may involve using finite element analysis (FEA) software to simulate the grooving process. By comparing the measured deformation with the deformation predicted by the theoretical model, residual stress at the grooving location can be calculated. The magnitude and distribution of residual stress can be determined through a series of notching and deformation measurements. During the analysis process, the measurement data may need to be corrected to eliminate the effects of geometric irregularities and temperature changes in the specimen itself. 5. Result verification and application: The reliability and consistency of the measurement method are verified by repeated testing and comparison of the results of different specimens. The measurement process and data analysis method may need to be modified to improve accuracy. The measured residual stress data can be used to improve the processing technology, such as adjusting the heat treatment process and optimizing the machining parameters to reduce or control the residual stress in the thin plate material, thereby improving the performance and quality of the final product.The grooving method proposed in the embodiments of the present invention can provide intuitive information about residual stress within a material. However, it should be noted that grooving itself also introduces some localized stresses, so this must be taken into account during data analysis to ensure the accuracy of the measurement results. Furthermore, grooved specimens may not be reusable due to structural damage. Therefore, this consideration must be taken into account when selecting specimens.

Figure 9 As shown, the thin plate 40 to be tested is placed in the test chamber 121, that is, placed at the bottom of the chamber of the test table 12 for supporting the thin plate 40 to be tested; 6.

Figure 11 As shown, the bottom driving portion 152 extends, driving the bottom support plate 151 to move upward, so that the bottom support plate 151 contacts the lower surface of the thin plate 40 to be detected, and the upper push rod 131 extends, so that the upper push rod 131 presses the first end 41 of the thin plate 40 to be detected; 8. Figure 12 As shown, the cutting motor 241 drives the milling cutter 242 to start cutting the groove to reach the set groove depth; 9. After the groove is cut, as shown in FIG. Figure 13As shown, the bottom driving part 152 contracts and drives the bottom supporting plate 151 to move downward, so that the bottom supporting plate 151 is separated from the thin plate 40 to be detected, and the upper push rod 131 contracts, so that the upper push rod 131 is separated from the thin plate 40 to be detected.
