Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of load simulation devices, and is suitable for the field of load simulation of vertical structure members such as hoisting arms and ladders. BACKGROUND
[0002] A vertical structure member is a large arm-shaped structure member driven by a hydraulic or electric actuator to realize vertical erection or swing, which is usually composed of a vertical arm structure and a linear actuator, and is widely used in engineering machinery and heavy logistics fields such as hoisting arms, fire ladders, and wind turbine tower assembly. As the core load-bearing component of the vertical device, the structural strength directly determines the vertical ability and affects the stability of the vertical process; at the same time, the actuator driving the vertical structure member greatly affects the response performance of the vertical process. In order to ensure that the vertical device meets the working requirements, it is necessary to test the load simulation of the vertical structure member and its actuator in advance to obtain the load capacity and vertical stability of the vertical structure member. How to load the vertical structure member and complete the load capacity and actuator performance test at the same time is the key of the vertical structure member load simulation device. In addition, due to different requirements of vertical devices in different fields or different working conditions, the structural characteristics and parameters of the vertical structure member present a diversified trend, and how to realize the load simulation test of vertical structure members and linear actuators of different specifications is also a key problem for the generalization of the load simulation device. SUMMARY
[0003] In view of the above problems, the purpose of the present application is to provide a universal vertical structure member load simulation device, which provides a load simulation test platform for vertical structure members of various specifications, can simulate the force state of the vertical arm and the load state of the linear actuator in the vertical process of the vertical structure member, and test whether the structural strength of the vertical arm under a certain load can meet the use requirements and the response speed and running stability of the linear actuator under a certain load, thereby providing protection for the vertical operation of the vertical device in a safe and stable manner. The load simulation device provided by the present application adopts a modular design in the form of building blocks, which can adapt to the loading of different parts of vertical arms of different lengths, and can realize the driving test of two linear actuators (double channels), thereby greatly reducing the load simulation test cost of vertical structure members of different specifications as a kind of vertical structure member load simulation device.
[0004] To this end, the application is a kind of universal erecting structure load simulation device, comprising: trapezoidal groove base, triangular support frame, column, beam one, column heightening module, beam two, top beam fixed joint, top beam, loading cylinder, loading cylinder tail ear seat, loading cylinder end ear seat, support column, measured cylinder one, measured cylinder two, erecting arm structure, measured cylinder one tail ear seat, measured cylinder two tail ear seat, measured cylinder tail fixed seat, measured cylinder one end ear seat, measured cylinder two end ear seat, measured cylinder end fixed seat, loading cylinder end force sensor, measured cylinder one end force sensor, measured cylinder two end force sensor, erecting arm structure fixed ear seat, electrical limiting device, erecting arm structure transition ear seat, code disc. Among them, the trapezoidal groove base, the triangular support frame, the column, the beam one, the column heightening module, the beam two, the top beam fixed joint and the top beam jointly constitute the experimental platform combined frame; the loading cylinder, the loading cylinder tail ear seat, the loading cylinder end ear seat, the erecting arm structure, the measured cylinder one tail ear seat, the measured cylinder two tail ear seat, the measured cylinder tail fixed seat, the measured cylinder one end ear seat, the measured cylinder two end ear seat, the measured cylinder end fixed seat and the erecting arm structure fixed ear seat jointly constitute the loading device.
[0005] In order to meet the test of different length erecting arm structures and different stroke measured cylinders, the experimental platform combined frame adopts the modular design of building blocks, and the length and height are flexibly adjusted by assembling and disassembling the frame module and moving the frame structure. The combined frame is connected by the top beam through the left and right side frames, the left and right side frames are composed of columns, beams one and beams two, the top beam is connected to the top beam fixed joints at both ends of the top beam through bolts, and is further connected to the upper beams two of the left and right side frames through bolts. The left and right side frames can be moved along the direction of the trapezoidal groove to adjust the distance between them, and according to the different span of the two side frames, different length specifications of the beams can be spliced to form the top beam to meet the connection requirements of the frame. The top beam is provided with an interface connected with the loading cylinder tail ear seat in the length direction, which can meet the loading requirements of different parts of the erecting arm structure. The column bottom platform connection of the two side frames and the connection with the beam two are supported by triangular support seats, which can ensure that the frame has sufficient support strength under load conditions. The column part adjusts the height of the column through the combined heightening module to realize the height adjustment of the top beam, and the column and the column heightening module are provided with uniform interfaces in the height direction. The beams one and two can be adjusted in height along the existing column and column heightening module according to the load simulation requirements. If the height does not meet the requirements, the column heightening module can be added to realize large range height adjustment. Through the modular strategies of column module combination, two side frame distance adjustment, multi-specification beam connection, etc., suitable loading frame is provided for various specifications of erecting structure, which has high universality.
[0006] In addition to providing flexible frame combination and adjustment methods, the device is also designed with multiple loading strategies. The experimental platform combination frame can provide single-channel (single test cylinder) loading tests and dual-channel (two test cylinders) loading tests, realizing loading tests on the erecting arm structure under various load conditions. In the loading tests of the erecting arm and the test cylinders, both the loading cylinder and the test cylinder load the erecting arm structure, thereby achieving the effect of simultaneous loading on multiple parts of the erecting arm structure. The evenly distributed interfaces provided by the top crossbeam and the trapezoidal groove base in the frame allow the loading cylinder and the test cylinder to adjust their positions, thereby loading multiple parts at different locations on the erecting arm structure. A code disk is set between the transition lug and the fixed lug of the erecting arm structure. Combined with the force sensors at the ends of the loading cylinder and the test cylinder, it is possible to accurately simulate the change of loading force with the erection angle, and test the strength of the erecting arm structure and the driving performance of the test cylinder during the erection process. The dual-channel loading test function enables the device of this invention to provide deflection loads to the erecting arm structure, thereby testing the strength performance of the erecting arm structure under deflection force. This working condition can be obtained when the output of the two cylinders is inconsistent in dual-channel testing or when the position of the tested cylinder is not centered in single-channel testing. Multi-cylinder loading and asymmetric loading can provide a wide range of loading methods, simulating the complex working conditions of the erecting structure in actual operation, and realizing multi-angle loading simulation testing of the erecting structure.
[0007] To ensure the erecting boom structure is tested within a specified safe angle range, in addition to the angle reference provided by the encoder, an electrical limit device is installed between the transition lugs and the fixing lugs of the erecting boom structure. The electrical limit device mainly consists of two proximity switches and a blocking strip that rotates with the erecting boom structure. Its limiting angle range can be adjusted by adjusting the positions of the proximity switches.
[0008] The experimental platform frame adopts a modular design similar to building blocks, with adjustable length and height. The positions of the loading cylinder and the cylinder under test are flexibly adjustable. The use of force sensors, encoders, and electrical limit devices makes the loading process more accurate and safer.
