Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of pipe bending angle measurement and correction, in particular to a pipe bending angle measurement method and system for a servo pipe bender. BACKGROUND

[0002] As a high-precision pipe forming equipment commonly used in the fields of automobile manufacturing, aerospace, shipbuilding and construction engineering, the servo pipe bender has high requirements for the measurement accuracy of the pipe bending angle. In the prior art, the measurement of the bending angle mainly relies on the sensor to collect the position change of the pipe bending spindle or the clamping mechanism, and is supplemented by theoretical calculation of the bending program setting value, or the approximate angle estimation of the pipe profile after deformation through a simple image capture method. However, these methods generally have the following technical problems:

[0003] The measurement result is easily disturbed by mechanical vibration. During the operation of the servo pipe bender, mechanical vibration of the pipe bending spindle and the supporting structure is inevitable, especially during the bending process of pipes with different materials, different wall thicknesses and different bending radii. These vibrations cause significant errors in angle measurement.

[0004] The non-uniformity of the pipe wall surface affects angle recognition. The inconsistency of the texture direction, thickness fluctuation and surface roughness of the inner and outer walls of the pipe often causes image information distortion or angle recognition distortion. Especially when using structured light scanning or industrial camera to shoot the pipe edge profile, the change of wall reflectivity or the non-homogeneity of surface structure will cause feature extraction deviation.

[0005] Plastic deformation causes angle measurement distortion. In the actual pipe bending process, the pipe material undergoes irreversible deformation due to exceeding the yield strength, and its actual geometric shape is inconsistent with the target command value, causing the bending angle to change nonlinearly.

[0006] Lack of multi-factor fusion correction mechanism. The existing system often relies on only a single measurement principle for angle evaluation, and lacks the systematic introduction of multi-source information such as state data, wall surface data and material parameters for angle correction and error control.

[0069] In the formula, Arms represents the root mean square value of acceleration, Apeak represents the peak acceleration in the sampling time period, Jsb represents the standard deviation of angular velocity, w1 and w2 represent empirical weight coefficients, 0≤w1≤1, 0≤w2≤1, and w1+w2=1;

[0070] The method for obtaining w1 and w2 is as follows: based on a large number of vibration and angular velocity data of servo pipe bending machines under different working conditions, and in combination with the actual measurement error in the pipe bending process, the relationship between the root mean square value of vibration acceleration, the peak acceleration, the standard deviation of angular velocity and the measurement error is analyzed by statistical analysis, and the regression analysis and experimental calibration methods are used to determine the optimal value range of the empirical weight coefficients w1 and w2. This process fully considers the influence of different materials, pipe diameters and bending speeds on the vibration response, ensures that the weight coefficients adapt to diversified working conditions, and improves the accuracy of the vibration disturbance coefficient ZDx.

[0085]

[0086] wherein bh max represents the maximum wall thickness value of the pipeline, bh min represents the minimum wall thickness value of the pipeline, bh avg represents the average wall thickness value of the pipeline, Srms represents the root mean square value of roughness, Sref represents the reference standard roughness of the pipeline surface, λ represents the texture consistency coefficient, a1, a2 and a3 represent empirical weight coefficients, 0≤a1≤1, 0≤a2≤1, 0≤a3≤1 and a1+a2+a3=1;

[0087] The texture consistency coefficient λ is obtained by: acquiring the inner and outer wall surface images of the pipeline by the image acquisition unit, comparing and analyzing the texture direction and feature distribution of the inner and outer walls by using the image processing algorithm, calculating the texture consistency coefficient λ, and taking the value range as 0 to 1. This process can reflect the integrity and uniformity of the wall texture in real time, and is an important part of the wall non-uniformity coefficient BMx, which helps to improve the accuracy of measurement correction.

[0088] The a1, a2 and a3 are obtained by: based on a large number of pipeline bending and wall measurement test data, combining the correlation analysis of key parameters such as pipeline wall thickness change, wall roughness and texture consistency with actual measurement error, determining the optimal values of a1, a2 and a3 by regression analysis and system calibration method, and normalizing them, and the sum is 1; this method fully considers the influence of different materials, surface treatment and bending conditions on the measurement results, ensures that the empirical weight constant adapts to diversified application scenarios, and improves the accuracy of the correction coefficient BMx;

[0094] When the wall unevenness coefficient BMx is less than the second threshold Q2, it indicates that the pipeline wall uniformity is qualified, and there is no risk of wall characteristics interfering with the measurement accuracy. Continuous monitoring is used, and the original measurement bending angle is used.

[0095] When the wall unevenness coefficient BMx is greater than or equal to the second threshold Q2, it indicates that the pipeline wall uniformity is unqualified, and there is a risk of wall characteristics interfering with the measurement accuracy. A second warning instruction is triggered, and a second strategy is generated: using the wall unevenness coefficient BMx to correct the measurement result in reverse. After dimensionless processing, a first corrected angle θ1 is obtained corr , the formula is as follows:

[0096] θ1 corr = θ raw - κ * BMx

[0097] In the formula, θ raw represents the measured bending angle, and κ represents the wall interference correction sensitivity coefficient.

[0098] The acquisition method of κ: through experimental calibration method, the original measurement angle and the measurement angle after wall and texture correction are compared on a plurality of standard pipeline samples. Combined with the actual measurement error and the system response characteristics, the κ value is adjusted to realize the fine reverse correction of the measurement result. The κ value is usually determined through multiple iteration optimization to ensure that the corrected measurement angle reaches the best accuracy when the bending angle is less than a certain threshold range, and to improve the overall measurement stability and reliability of the system.

[0099] The acquisition method of the second threshold Q2: through statistical analysis of a large amount of servo pipe bending machine pipeline wall measurement data, the distribution range of the wall unevenness coefficient BMx under the conditions of normal wall uniformity and wall defect is extracted. Combined with the experience of industry experts and relevant pipeline manufacturing and detection standards, a reasonable wall unevenness qualified critical value Q2 is determined. The threshold value refers to the relevant pipeline surface quality standards and safety specifications of the state or industry to ensure effective identification and early warning of pipeline wall abnormal conditions, so as to ensure the accuracy of measurement and the structural safety of the pipeline.

[0100] In the embodiment, the wall unevenness threshold Q2 is set by the second analysis unit to realize dynamic evaluation of the wall uniformity, and the measurement error risk caused by the wall unevenness can be identified in time. When the wall unevenness coefficient BMx exceeds the threshold, the system automatically triggers a warning and starts a reverse correction strategy based on BMx to scientifically correct the original measured bending angle, effectively reduces the interference of the wall characteristics on the measurement accuracy, and improves the reliability and accuracy of the bending angle measurement.

[0109] Embodiment 9

[0110] The embodiment is an explanation and illustration in embodiment 8. Specifically, the third analysis unit is configured to preset a third threshold Q3, and compare and analyze the plastic deformation coefficient SBx with the third threshold Q3 to obtain a third evaluation result, including:

[0111] When the plastic deformation coefficient SBx is less than the third threshold Q3, it indicates that the pipeline has no reverse deformation trend, and continuous monitoring is performed.

[0112] When the plastic deformation coefficient SBx is greater than or equal to the third threshold Q3, it indicates that the pipe has a reverse deformation trend and there is a risk of angle measurement distortion, a third early warning instruction is triggered, and a third strategy is generated: using the plastic deformation coefficient SBx, the first corrected angle θ1 corr is corrected in the reverse direction, and after non-dimensional processing, the second corrected angle θ2 corr is obtained, and the formula is as follows:

[0113] θ2 corr = θ1 corr - μ * (SBx - Q3);

[0114] In the formula, θ1 corr represents the first corrected angle, μ represents the plastic correction weight coefficient, which is calibrated according to different pipe materials and bending equipment and is used to control the correction degree, and Q3 represents the third threshold.

[0115] The plastic correction weight coefficient μ is obtained in the following manner: based on a large amount of plastic deformation test data and the angle measurement error in the pipe springback process, the optimal value of the correction coefficient μ is determined through system calibration and regression analysis. The coefficient quantifies the influence of the springback trend on the measured angle, and effectively corrects the original measured bending angle. The determination of μ takes into account the material properties, bending radius, wall thickness and actual working conditions, so as to ensure that the correction model can accurately reflect the angle deviation caused by plastic deformation and improve the stability of the overall measurement system.

[0116] The third threshold Q3 is obtained in the following manner: based on the statistical analysis of the plastic deformation coefficient SBx of a large number of servo pipe bending machines under different materials and bending conditions, combined with relevant industry material mechanics standards and safety specifications, the distribution range of SBx under normal plastic deformation and abnormal plastic deformation is divided to determine a reasonable plastic deformation threshold Q3. The threshold can accurately reflect whether the pipe has a reverse deformation trend, and is used as a key parameter for judging whether the bending angle needs to be corrected, so as to ensure the accuracy of the measurement results and the safety of the pipe structure.

[0117] In this embodiment, the plastic deformation threshold Q3 is preset by the third analysis unit to realize real-time monitoring and dynamic evaluation of the plastic deformation coefficient SBx, and effectively identify whether the pipe has a reverse deformation trend. When SBx reaches or exceeds the threshold Q3, the system can timely trigger an early warning and generate a reverse correction strategy based on the plastic deformation coefficient, and use the plastic correction weight coefficient to accurately correct the first corrected angle, thereby significantly reducing the risk of bending angle measurement distortion caused by reverse deformation and improving the accuracy and reliability of the measurement results.
