Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to the field of measuring devices, and particularly relates to a working method of a device for measuring the polarity and flatness of a linear motor magnet. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the rapid development of science and technology, the linear motor is widely used in the industrial manufacturing field as a traditional module upgrading and replacement scheme. For many industrial application occasions, such as a scara mechanical arm, a numerical control machining center, a 3C photoetching platform and a three-coordinate measuring field, the linear motor is required to have high running precision and small noise and vibration, so that the positioning precision and machining precision are guaranteed. In addition to the requirement of high machining precision of motor related parts, the assembly quality is also required to be high, and an important index for measuring the assembly quality is a magnet polarity and flatness, that is, the magnet polarity cannot be reversed and the magnet cannot protrude from the surface of the magnetic steel. Most of the existing patents detect only the magnetism of the magnet, and do not mention the flatness detection. Therefore, after the magnet of the linear motor dynamic stator assembly is assembled, the manual detection and observation are time-consuming and laborious, and errors are easy to occur. Once the errors are missed, the entire motor needs to be reassembled, the magnet is generally fixed by structural glue, and the disassembly and repair are difficult, and the rework cost is high.

[0003] For example, the utility model patent with the publication number CN216670244U has been published at the present stage, and only provides a magnet polarity detection flow device. The device can measure the polarity, but does not have the function of detecting the flatness, and is not suitable for small-batch manual production fields. For example, the utility model patent with the publication number CN219065718U and the utility model patent with the publication number CN218383254U have been published, and only provide a single magnet surface polarity device. The device does not involve the flatness measurement. SUMMARY

[0006] Further improvement, the platform support frame is internally provided with a controller module connected with the X-axis module assembly, the Y-axis module assembly, the first Z-axis module assembly and the second Z-axis module assembly respectively.

[0007] Further improvement, the bent angle of the bent arm piece is 90°.

[0008] Further improvement, the stator assembly comprises a magnet, a magnetic steel and a base, the magnet is embedded in the center of the base, and the magnetic steel is distributed on the surface of the magnet.

[0009] The application also provides a working method of the device for measuring the polarity and flatness of a linear motor magnet, comprising measuring the polarity and flatness of the stator assembly.

[0010] When the polarity of the stator assembly is measured, the stator assembly is placed on the platform positioning plate assembly, the Hall mounting block provided with the Hall element is moved to a position 1mm away from the upper surface of the stator assembly and stopped, the Hall element is started, and the X-axis module assembly drives the stator assembly to move in the X direction; when the moving stroke exceeds the length of the stator assembly, the Hall element stops collecting; then the Z-axis module assembly drives the Hall mounting block to reset.

[0011] When measuring the surface flatness of the magnet, the first Z-axis module assembly drives the mounting seat with the laser sensor to move downward, stops at a distance of 100mm from the surface of the stator assembly, at this time the laser sensor starts data collection, and the X-axis module assembly drives the stator assembly to move along the X-axis direction; when the moving distance exceeds the set value, the X-axis module stops moving, the Y-axis module drives the stator assembly to move along the Y-axis direction for a certain distance, after moving to the position, the X-axis module assembly drives the stator assembly to move along the X-axis reverse direction, and the laser sensor stops collecting after the movement is completed; at this time, each module is reset.

[0012] The present application has the advantages that:

[0025] The positioning plate assembly is installed on the platform support frame through the X-axis module assembly and the Y-axis module assembly, the stator assembly is installed in a groove in the center of the positioning plate assembly, and the positioning plate assembly has two degrees of freedom along the X-axis and the Y-axis through the X-axis module assembly and the Y-axis module assembly; the first Z-axis module assembly and the second Z-axis module assembly are fixedly connected to the platform support frame through the bending arm piece and suspended above the stator assembly, wherein the laser sensor is installed on the first Z-axis module assembly through the laser sensor mounting seat, the laser sensor has a degree of freedom along the Z-axis, the Hall mounting block is installed on the second Z-axis module assembly through the mounting block connecting plate, the Hall element is installed on the Hall mounting block, and the Hall mounting block and the Hall element have a degree of freedom along the Z-axis, as shown in Figure 3 .

[0026] The stator assembly, as shown in Figure 4 , comprises a magnet 15, a magnetic steel 16, and a base 17, the magnet is embedded in the center of the base, and the magnetic steel is distributed on the surface of the magnet.

[0027] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 1As shown, when measuring the polarity of the stator assembly 10, the stator assembly 10 is placed on the platform positioning plate assembly 4, the second Z-axis module assembly 7 drives the Hall mounting block 9 with the Hall element 14 to move to a position about 1 mm away from the upper surface of the stator assembly 10 and then stops (the servo motor of the second Z-axis module assembly 7 has a brake), and then starts to start the collection module, while the X-axis module assembly 3 drives the stator assembly 10 to move in the X direction, when the moving distance exceeds the length of the stator assembly 10, the Hall element 14 stops collecting; then the second Z-axis module assembly 7 drives the Hall mounting block 9 to reset, and the above is a complete action process for measuring the polarity of the magnet.
