Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of machining technology and relates to a measuring device and method for measuring the perpendicularity of the head support surface of a high-strength bolt to the axis of a smooth rod. Background Technology

[0002] In aircraft manufacturing, high-strength bolts are widely used in the connection of critical components such as landing gear, load-bearing beams, and engine parts. These components bear enormous loads and complex stress states during aircraft takeoff, landing, and flight, requiring extremely high reliability and precision in their connections. Besides ensuring the dimensional tolerances of the bolts, strictly controlling geometrical tolerances is also crucial for ensuring the reliability and stability of high-strength bolt connections. The perpendicularity of the bolt head bearing surface to the axis of the smooth rod is one of the most critical indicators of geometrical tolerance requirements. Good perpendicularity ensures uniform force distribution during bolt tightening, avoids localized stress concentration, and reduces the risk of bolt fatigue failure.

[0003] According to the "Tolerances for Form and Position of Bolts and Screws" (HB7360-1996), the perpendicularity of the bolt head bearing surface to the smooth shank axis should not exceed 0.08 mm. The general requirements for bolts stipulate that the perpendicularity of the bolt head bearing surface to the smooth shank axis should not exceed 0.01S mm (S is the hexagonal width of the bolt). For bolts with a diameter ≥ 10 mm, the perpendicularity requirement is no greater than 0.14 mm. Therefore, the "Tolerances for Form and Position of Bolts and Screws" standard places very high demands on the perpendicularity of the bolt head bearing surface to the smooth shank axis.

[0004] At present, there are mainly three methods for measuring the perpendicularity of the supporting surface of the bolt head: The first method is to use a comprehensive gauge for detection. Insert the bolt into the guiding hole of the precision comprehensive gauge, and the end face of the gauge contacts the supporting surface of the bolt head. When the two fit tightly without gaps, it is judged as qualified; otherwise, it is unqualified. The second method is to use a lever dial indicator based on a V-block for detection. Place the bolt in the V-block to position it radially. The measuring head of the lever dial indicator leans on the supporting surface of the bolt. Rotate the bolt to measure the end face runout of the supporting surface. Move the lever dial indicator on the platform, and pull the measuring head from the innermost side to the outermost side of the supporting surface to obtain a reading difference of the sub-dial of the lever dial indicator - the parallelism of the supporting surface relative to the horizontal plane. The maximum values of the end face runout and parallelism of the supporting surface are the perpendicularity errors of the supporting surface of the bolt head. The third method is to use special equipment for detection, such as laser machine measurement, coordinate measuring machine measurement, etc. Measure the data of each position of the part through the equipment, and then analyze and process it through the software system to finally obtain the perpendicularity index of the supporting surface of the bolt head. The first method has a simple detection method and high efficiency, and is suitable for detecting a large number of products. However, this method has two disadvantages. One is that it cannot detect the perpendicularity error of the supporting surface of the bolt head with "hollowed-out center" (the thickness of the supporting surface is small in the middle and large on the outside). In actual production, generally, process methods are used to prevent the bolt from having the "hollowed-out center" situation before using the comprehensive gauge method for detection with confidence. The other disadvantage is that it can only qualitatively judge whether it is qualified and cannot quantitatively determine the error size. The second method can measure quantitatively, but the operation difficulty is relatively large. In addition, when moving the lever dial indicator on the platform to measure the parallelism, since it is manually moved, the moving direction of the measuring head cannot be directly opposite to the axis of the bolt shank, and the measured data is relatively smaller than the actual value. The third method has high measurement accuracy, but the equipment cost is high and requires professional operation. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a measuring device and method for the perpendicularity of the supporting surface of a high-strength bolt head to the axis of the shank, which can quickly complete the measurement of the perpendicularity of the supporting surface of the bolt head to the axis of the shank, so as to achieve the purpose of efficient acceptance of products.

[0006] The present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] A measuring device for the perpendicularity of the supporting surface of a high-strength bolt head to the axis of the shank includes a base 1, a lever dial indicator 9, a standard sample 12, a dial indicator clamping assembly, and a bolt clamping assembly. A cube structure is set up in the middle of the bottom plate of the base 1. The bolt clamping assembly is fixed on the base 1 on one side of the cube structure and is used for clamping the standard sample 12 and bolt parts. The dial indicator clamping assembly is fixed on the base 1 on one side of the cube structure and is used for clamping the lever dial indicator 9 and enabling it to move on the top surface of the cube structure.

[0008] The dial indicator clamping assembly includes a top rod screw 2, a support arm 3, a first spring 4, a sliding plate 5, a locking screw 6, a guide plate 7, and a limiting pin 8; the bolt clamping assembly includes a V-shaped frame 10, a compression spring 11, a first arc-shaped component 13, a second arc-shaped component 14, a compression component 15, a cover 16, a handle 17, and a second spring 18.

[0009] The base 1 is a rectangular base plate with a recess at the bottom to avoid the connecting hexagonal screws. The center of the base plate has a cubic structure with four threaded holes on the upper surface of the cubic structure, which cooperate with screws to connect and fix the two guide plates 7. One side of the base plate of the cubic structure has two threaded holes, which cooperate with hexagonal screws to connect the support arm 3. The other side of the base plate has two round holes and two threaded holes. The round holes cooperate with positioning pins for positioning the V-shaped frame 10, and the threaded holes cooperate with hexagonal screws to connect the V-shaped frame 10.

[0010] The support arm 3 is a guide element, which is an inverted T-shaped cuboid structure. It has two threaded holes in the horizontal direction, which are fixed to the base 1 by internal hex bolts. It has a round hole and a threaded hole in the vertical direction, with the round hole directly above the threaded hole. The round hole is used to fix one end of the first spring 4. The side of the support arm 3 has a pin hole that communicates with the round hole, which is used to insert a pin to hook and fix the first spring 4. The threaded hole is connected to the push rod screw 2 for threaded transmission and to limit the movement direction of the push rod screw 2.

[0011] The push rod screw 2 is a transmission element. Its main body is a threaded rod. One end contacts the slide plate 5 and is used to push the slide plate 5 to move left and right. The other end is made into a truncated cone. The outer circle of the truncated cone is knurled to prevent slipping and facilitate manual rotation. The truncated cone is connected to the threaded rod to form a round boss, which is a transition part used to make room and facilitate finger rotation of the screw.

[0012] Guide plate 7 is a limiting element used to limit the movement direction of slide plate 5. There are two guide plates 7, which are cuboid structures and are symmetrically arranged along the length of base 1 on the top edge of the cubic structure of base 1. The top surface of guide plate 7 has two elliptical holes, which are used to fix it to base plate 1 with screws. The two guide plates 7 have 90° V-shaped grooves on opposite sides, and ball bearings are placed in the V-shaped grooves for slide plate 5 between the two guide plates 7. The two ends of the V-shaped grooves have round holes for installing limiting pins 8 to prevent the ball bearings from falling off.

[0013] The sliding plate 5 is a sliding element used to move the lever dial indicator 9. The sliding plate 5 has an L-shaped block structure with 90° V-shaped grooves on both sides of the bottom structure, which cooperate with the V-shaped grooves of the two guide plates 7 to achieve sliding. The longitudinal structure is a straight slot structure with a round hole in the middle of the slot for clamping the lever dial indicator 9. The straight slot structure can enlarge the round hole for easy installation. The outer walls of the two sides of the sliding plate 5 next to the round hole have R-shaped grooves to improve the deformation capacity of the straight slot. The straight slot has a threaded hole in the vertical direction, which is connected to the locking screw 6 to reduce the width of the slot and press the lever dial indicator 9. There is another round hole below the straight slot structure for fixing the other end of the first spring 4. The side of the sliding plate 5 has a pin hole that communicates with and is perpendicular to the round hole for inserting a pin to connect and fix it to the other hook of the first spring 4.

[0014] The locking screw 6 has a similar structure to the push rod screw 2. It engages with the threaded hole at the top of the slide plate 5 to press the slotted part of the slide plate 5 and press the lever dial indicator 9.

[0015] The lever dial indicator 9 is a measuring element used for perpendicularity measurement. It is a general-purpose standard part, consisting of five main components: a probe, a measuring rod, a mechanical transmission system, an indicating dial and pointer, and a clamping rod. The diameter of the clamping rod is the same as the original size of the central hole in the slide plate 5, and the lever dial indicator 9 is clamped and fixed by the slide plate 5.

[0016] V-shaped bracket 10 is a fixing element. Its bottom is positioned on the base 1 by a positioning pin and fixed by an internal hex screw. It is used to fix the standard sample 12 or bolt parts. V-shaped bracket 10 has a "P" shaped structure. The outer side of its head has a vertically arranged 90° V-shaped groove for positioning and aligning the standard sample 12 or bolt parts. The head of V-shaped bracket 10 has two symmetrical upper and lower recesses on both sides. The recesses have threaded holes for limiting and fixing the first arc-shaped part 13 and the second arc-shaped part 14. The upper end face of V-shaped bracket 10 has a groove in the middle to avoid the probe of the lever dial indicator 9. One side of the upper end face has a threaded hole for fixing the compression spring 11.

[0017] The compression spring 11 is in the shape of a question mark and has a thin plate structure. It has good elasticity and a round hole at its end. It is fixed to the V-shaped bracket 10 with screws. The curved part presses against the upper end face of the standard sample 12 or the bolt part to prevent it from moving.

[0018] The first arc-shaped component 13 is U-shaped and has a thin-walled structure. Its two side arms are fixedly connected to the recess on the upper side of the V-shaped frame 10 by screws. Its upper end face is in contact with the standard sample 12 or the bolt head support surface clamped on the V-shaped frame 10 to define the position.

[0019] The second arc-shaped component 14 is also U-shaped with a thin-walled structure. Its two side arms are fixedly connected to the recess on the lower side of the V-shaped frame 10 by screws. The middle part is provided with one large and two small round holes. The large round hole is used to connect with the round rod of the clamping component 15, and the two small holes are fixed together with the cover 16 by rivets.

[0020] The cover 16 is a stepped support plate structure. The support plate is rhomboid in shape with rounded transitions on both sides and round holes at both ends. It is fixed to the inner side of the second arc-shaped part 14 by riveting. The cover 16 has a through hole in the middle of the stepped shaft for the clamping part 15 to pass through.

[0021] One end of the clamping member 15 is a 90° V-shaped claw, which cooperates with the V-groove of the V-shaped frame 10 to clamp the screw part of the standard sample 12 or the bolt part. The other end is a thin shaft structure with a second spring 18. The end passes through the cover 16 and the second arc-shaped member 14 and is threaded to the handle 17.

[0022] The handle 17 is tapered in shape and has a blind hole thread inside, which is fixed to the clamping member 15.

[0023] The two ends of the second spring 18 are pressed against the 90° V-shaped claw end faces of the cover 16 and the clamping member 15, providing clamping force to the clamping member 15.

[0024] Standard sample 12 is a calibration element used for calibration before the device is used. Standard sample 12 has a stepped shaft structure, with the inner end face of the thick shaft perpendicular to the axis of the thin shaft. The inner end face of the thick shaft rests on the first arc-shaped part 13, and the thin shaft is placed in the 90° V-groove of the V-frame 10 and clamped by the clamping part 15.

[0025] A method for measuring the perpendicularity of a high-strength bolt head support surface to the axis of a smooth rod, based on the aforementioned perpendicularity measuring device, includes the following steps:

[0026] Step 1: Install and fix the standard sample 12. First, place the verticality measuring device on the marble platform, ensuring it is stable. Manually pull the handle 17 to move the clamping member 15 away from the V-shaped bracket 10, compressing the second spring 18. Then, place the standard sample 12 in the V-groove of the V-shaped bracket 10, with the inner end face of the thick shaft of the standard sample 12 pressed tightly against the upper end face of the first arc-shaped member 13. Next, release the handle 17, and the second spring 18 pushes the clamping member 15's claws to press the thin shaft portion of the standard sample 12, fixing the standard sample 12 in place. Finally, rotate the clamping spring 11 to press it against the upper end face of the thick shaft of the standard sample 12, preventing it from moving upwards.

[0027] Step 2, install the lever dial indicator 9. First, unscrew the top screw 2 to allow the first spring 4 to return to its non-elastic deformation state. Rotate the locking screw 6 counterclockwise to expand the slot and central hole of the slide plate 5. Insert the round rod of the lever dial indicator 9 into the central hole, adjust the dial of the lever dial indicator 9 so that the dial faces upward, and rotate the locking screw 6 clockwise to clamp the lever dial indicator 9.

[0028] Step 3: Adjust the dial indicator 9. First, screw in the ejector rod screw 2 to push the slider 5 to drive the dial indicator 9 to move horizontally to the right, and adjust the height of the probe of the dial indicator 9 slightly higher than the inner end face of the rough shaft of the standard sample 12; lower the probe, rotate the ejector rod screw 2, and move the probe of the dial indicator 9 to below the inner end face of the rough shaft of the standard sample 12 and contact the inner end face of the rough shaft of the standard sample 12.

[0029] Step 4: Detect whether the accuracy of the perpendicularity measuring device is qualified. Select a point on the inner end face of the rough shaft of the standard sample block for measurement. First, rotate the standard sample 12 one week, and remember the position of the maximum change of the pointer scale on the dial of the dial indicator 9. If the reading difference ≤ 0.02, it is determined that the device accuracy is qualified.

[0030] Step 5: Install and fix the bolt part. First, unscrew the ejector rod screw 2 to make the probe of the dial indicator 9 away from the standard sample 12, rotate the compression spring 11 to loosen the bolt, then pull the handle 17, take out the standard sample 12 and put in the bolt part. Place the screw rod of the bolt part in the V-groove of the V-block 10, and the supporting surface of the bolt head is closely attached to the upper end face of the first arc-shaped part 13. Loosen the handle 17 to clamp the bolt part. Finally, rotate the compression spring 11 to press the upper end face of the bolt head to prevent it from moving upward.

[0031] Step 6: Detect the perpendicularity of the bolt part. Repeat Step 3 to make the probe of the dial indicator 9 contact the supporting surface of the bolt head, and measure the end face runout value and parallelism. The maximum value between the two is the perpendicularity error; if the perpendicularity error ≤ 0.08, it is determined that the perpendicularity of the supporting surface of the bolt head is qualified; if the perpendicularity error > 0.08, it is determined that the perpendicularity of the supporting surface of the bolt head is unqualified. Among them:

[0032] The method for measuring the end face runout value is: Select three points on the supporting surface of the bolt head for measurement. The three points are the innermost position, the middle position, and the outermost position of the supporting surface. The measurement method for each point: Rotate the bolt head and turn it one week, record the position of the maximum change of the pointer scale on the dial of the dial indicator 9 for each point, and the reading difference is the end face runout value.

[0033] The method for measuring parallelism is: Pull the probe of the dial indicator 9 from the innermost side to the outermost side of the supporting surface of the bolt head, and the obtained reading difference is the parallelism of the supporting surface relative to the horizontal plane.

[0034] Step 7: Take out the bolt part. Unscrew the ejector rod screw 2 to drive the dial indicator 9 away from the bolt part, then rotate the compression spring 11 to loosen the bolt part, pull the handle 17, and take out the bolt part to complete one perpendicularity measurement.

[0035] The beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0036] 1. This invention measures the perpendicularity of the bolt head bearing surface to the smooth rod axis by detecting the circular runout of the end face of the bolt head bearing surface and the parallelism of the bearing surface relative to the horizontal plane. The measurement method is simple, the measurement difficulty is low, and the detection accuracy is high.

[0037] 2. This invention can achieve horizontal movement of the lever dial indicator through a ball bearing guide rail, resulting in smooth movement, low friction, and high accuracy in linear movement;

[0038] 3. This invention can detect the perpendicularity of the bearing surface of bolt heads of various diameters (smooth rod length ≤ 70mm), and has strong applicability;

[0066] like Figure 7 The locking screw 6 has a similar structure to the top screw 2 and engages with the threaded hole at the top of the slide plate 5 to press the slotted part of the slide plate 5 and press the lever dial indicator 9.

[0067] like Figure 9The lever dial indicator 9 is a measuring element used for perpendicularity measurement. It is a general-purpose standard part, generally consisting of five parts: a probe, a measuring rod, a mechanical transmission system, an indicating dial and pointer, and a clamping rod. The diameter of the clamping rod is the same as the original size of the central hole in the slide plate 5, and the lever dial indicator 9 is clamped and fixed by the slide plate 5.

[0068] like Figure 10 The V-shaped bracket 10 is a fixing element. Its bottom is positioned on the base 1 by a positioning pin and fixed by an internal hex screw.

The inner end face of the thick shaft rests on the first arc-shaped part 13, and the thin shaft is placed in the 90° V-groove of the V-shaped bracket 10 and clamped by the clamping part 15.

[0077] A method for measuring the perpendicularity of a high-strength bolt head support surface to the axis of a smooth rod, based on the aforementioned perpendicularity measuring device, includes the following steps:

[0078] Step 1: Install and fix the standard sample 12. First, place the verticality measuring device on the marble platform, ensuring it is stable. Manually pull the handle 17 to move the clamping member 15 away from the V-shaped bracket 10, compressing the second spring 18. Then, place the standard sample 12 in the V-groove of the V-shaped bracket 10, with the inner end face of the thick shaft of the standard sample 12 pressed tightly against the upper end face of the first arc-shaped member 13. Next, release the handle 17, and the second spring 18 pushes the clamping member 15's claws to press the thin shaft portion of the standard sample 12, fixing the standard sample 12 in place. Finally, rotate the clamping spring 11 to press it against the upper end face of the thick shaft of the standard sample 12, preventing it from moving upwards.

[0079] Step 2, install the lever dial indicator 9. First, unscrew the top screw 2 to allow the first spring 4 to return to its non-elastic deformation state. Rotate the locking screw 6 counterclockwise to expand the slot and central hole of the slide plate 5. Insert the round rod of the lever dial indicator 9 into the central hole, adjust the dial of the lever dial indicator 9 so that the dial faces upward, and rotate the locking screw 6 clockwise to clamp the lever dial indicator 9.

[0080] Step 3, adjust the lever dial indicator 9. First, screw in the top screw 2, push the slider 5 to move the lever dial indicator 9 horizontally to the right, and adjust the height of the lever dial indicator 9 probe to be slightly higher than the inner end face of the standard sample 12 coarse shaft; lower the probe, rotate the top screw 2, and move the lever dial indicator 9 probe to below the inner end face of the standard sample 12 coarse shaft and in contact with the inner end face of the standard sample 12 coarse shaft.

[0081] Step 4: Check if the perpendicularity measuring device is accurate. Select a point on the inner end face of the standard sample block's coarse shaft for measurement. First, rotate the standard sample block 12 times. Remember the position of the maximum change in the pointer scale on the dial of lever dial indicator 9. If the reading difference is ≤0.02, the device is considered to be accurate.

[0082] Step 5: Install the fixing bolt part. First, unscrew the ejector rod screw 2 to move the probe of the lever dial indicator 9 away from the standard sample 12. Rotate the compression spring 11 to loosen the bolt. Then, pull the handle 17 to remove the standard sample 12 and place the bolt part. The screw rod of the bolt part is placed in the V-groove of the V-block 10, and the supporting surface of the bolt head is closely attached to the upper end surface of the first arc-shaped part 13. Loosen the handle 17 to clamp the bolt part. Finally, rotate the compression spring 11 to press the upper end surface of the bolt head to prevent it from moving upward.

[0083] Step 6: Detect the perpendicularity of the bolt part. Repeat Step 3 to make the probe of the lever dial indicator 9 contact with the supporting surface of the bolt head, and measure the end face runout value and parallelism. The maximum value between the two is the perpendicularity error. If the perpendicularity error ≤ 0.08, it is determined that the perpendicularity of the supporting surface of the bolt head is qualified; if the perpendicularity error > 0.08, it is determined that the perpendicularity of the supporting surface of the bolt head is unqualified. Among them:

[0084] The method for measuring the end face runout value is as follows: Select three points on the supporting surface of the bolt head for measurement. The three points are the innermost position, the middle position, and the outermost position of the supporting surface. The measurement method for each point: Rotate the bolt head and turn it one week, record the maximum change position of the pointer scale on the dial of the lever dial indicator 9 for each point, and the reading difference is the end face runout value.

[0085] The method for measuring the parallelism is as follows: Pull the probe of the lever dial indicator 9 from the innermost side to the outermost side of the supporting surface of the bolt head, and the obtained reading difference is the parallelism of the supporting surface relative to the horizontal plane.

[0086] Step 7: Remove the bolt part. Unscrew the ejector rod screw 2 to move the lever dial indicator 9 away from the bolt part. Then, rotate the compression spring 11 to loosen the bolt part, pull the handle 17, and remove the bolt part to complete one perpendicularity measurement.

[0087] The above are only some embodiments of the present invention, and thus do not limit the implementation mode and protection scope of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should make improvements and modifications within the protection scope of the present invention without departing from the disclosure of the present invention.
