Description

[0001] This invention relates to the field of linear motor technology, specifically to an installation and testing device and a testing method for linear motors. Background Technology

[0002] A linear motor is a device that directly converts electrical energy into linear motion mechanical energy without any intermediate transmission mechanism. It far surpasses traditional rotary motor systems in terms of precision, speed, response, and reliability, and is gradually being used in a wider range of industrial and civilian applications.

[0003] In permanent magnet synchronous linear motors, a permanent magnet array is laid on the stator side. When the armature winding in the mover is energized, a magnetic field is generated that translates in a straight line. The magnetic field of the mover interacts with the magnetic field of the permanent magnet, generating an electromagnetic thrust on the mover. The electromagnetic thrust drives the mover to move along the guide rail. Under current technology, the testing equipment for linear motors can accurately detect the relevant parameters of the motor, but it is difficult to distinguish between electrical system problems and mechanical system problems. More specialized third-party equipment is required for further testing, which seriously affects the testing efficiency of linear motors and greatly increases the testing cost.

[0004] Therefore, how to efficiently distinguish the types of faults in linear motors is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] Please see Figures 1-7 The present invention provides a technical solution: an installation and testing device for a linear motor, comprising a base 1 and an analysis module. The analysis module is used to receive and analyze test data. A protective seat 2 is installed at one upper end of the base 1, and an infrared thermal imager (not shown in the figure) is installed at the bottom end of the protective seat 2. The observation direction of the infrared thermal imager is downward. A guide rail 3 is installed above the base 1. The guide rail 3 is U-shaped. A stator is installed inside the guide rail 3. A drag chain 4 is set in front of the guide rail 3. Part of the structure of the drag chain 4 is fixedly connected to the base 1. A mover 6 is slidably connected above the guide rail 3. Several circuits are integrated inside the drag chain 4 to connect the electrical system of the mover 6 to a power supply and an electrical testing device. The electrical system includes windings and an armature core.

[0045] A motor 8 and a lead screw 9 are located behind the guide rail 3. The axis of the lead screw 9 is in the same direction as the axial direction of the guide rail 3. A test assembly, including a robotic arm 7, is threaded onto the shaft of the lead screw 9. A cable chain 5 is mounted behind the robotic arm 7. Part of the cable chain 5 is fixedly connected to the base 1. The motor 8 is mounted above the base 1, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to the lead screw 9. Both ends of the lead screw 9 are connected to bearings in the bearing seats of the base 1. A torque sensor (not shown in the figure) is mounted on the shaft of the lead screw 9. The output end of the robotic arm 7 is... The robot arm 7 is equipped with a booster 10 and has fixed plates 11 symmetrically installed on both sides of its body. The fixed plates 11 are positioned above the mover 6. Support blocks 12 are symmetrically installed on the two sets of fixed plates 11. A telescopic rod 13 is installed below the support blocks 12. A stop block 14 is installed at the output end of the telescopic rod 13. A piezoelectric module (not shown in the figure) is laid on the side of the stop block 14 facing the mover 6. The piezoelectric module is used to detect the magnitude of the thrust applied to the mover 6 by the magnetic field. Several circuits are integrated inside the drag chain 2 5 to connect the test components to the power supply 2.

[0046] Two sets of light sensors 15 are installed on the same outer side of the guide rail 3, and a light-blocking plate 16 is installed on the side of the mover 6 near the light sensor 15.

[0047] A testing method for linear motors using mounting and testing equipment includes the following steps:

[0048] S1: Turn off power supply one and turn on power supply two to make the test component push the mover 6 to move along the guide rail 3, and use the light sensor 15 and torque sensor to collect relevant data of the mechanical system of the mover 6.

[0049] S2: Turn off power supply 2 and turn on power supply 1, so that the mover 6 moves along the guide rail 3 under the action of magnetic force, and collect relevant data of the electrical system of the mover 6 using the optical sensor 15 and related electrical detection equipment.

[0050] S3: Turn on power supply one and power supply two, and perform load test and stall test on the mover 6 under magnetic drive through the test components, and collect data using optical sensor 15, torque sensor and related electrical testing equipment.

[0051] S4: Analyze the data in S1, S2 and S3, distinguish between electrical system problems and mechanical system problems, and repair or optimize the system problems.

[0052] A testing method for a linear motor using an installation testing device, wherein step S1 includes the following method:

[0053] S1.1: Power off power supply one, power on power supply two, test components are powered on, robotic arm 7 moves the booster 10 above the mover 6, activates each set of telescopic rods 13, the output end of the telescopic rods 13 extends outward, driving the stop blocks 14 downward, at this time the two symmetrically installed sets of stop blocks 14 limit the movement of the mover 6 on both sides (e.g. Figure 4 As shown), start motor 8, motor 8 drives lead screw 9 to rotate, lead screw 9 drives robotic arm 7 to move along the axis of lead screw 9. The moving principle is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0054] The robotic arm 7 drives the fixed plate 11 to move synchronously, the fixed plate 11 drives the support block 12 to move synchronously, and the support block 12 drives the stop block 14 to move synchronously, so that the stop block 14 pushes the mover 6 to move along the guide rail 3.

[0055] The moving element 6 drives the light-blocking plate 16 to move. During the movement, the light-blocking plate 16 passes through two sets of light sensors 15 and blocks the receiving unit of the light sensors 15. When the light sensor 15 detects that the light is blocked, it means that the moving element 6 has passed the light sensor 15. When the moving element 6 passes the light sensor 15, the light sensor 15 sends a signal to the analysis module. The analysis module calculates the speed at which the test component pushes the moving element 6 based on the distance between the two sets of light sensors 15 and the reception time of the two sets of signals.

[0056] The space between the two sets of optical sensor 15 receiving units is defined as the test space, and the reciprocating motion of the mover 6 in the test space is defined as one test cycle.

[0057] The test components are further used to drive the actuator 6 to move for multiple test cycles. The torque sensor records the torque fluctuation data of the lead screw 9 within multiple test cycles, reducing the error of the torque fluctuation data, and transmitting the torque data to the analysis module.

[0058] A testing method for a linear motor using an installation testing device, wherein step S2 includes the following method:

[0059] S2.1: Power supply 2 is turned off, power supply 1 is turned on, the test component is de-energized, the stop 14 releases the limit of the mover 6, the electrical system of the mover 6 is energized, the driving principle of the linear motor is existing technology and will not be described in detail here, the magnetic force drives the mover 6 to move along the guide rail 3, the electrical testing equipment collects the relevant electrical performance data of the mover 6 during the test cycle and transmits the electrical performance data to the analysis module, the principle of speed detection is the same as the speed measurement principle in S1.

[0060] A testing method for a linear motor using an installation testing device, wherein step S3 includes the following method:

[0061] S3.1: Turn on power supply one and power supply two, keep motor 8 off, stop block 14 limits the movement of mover 6, magnetic force drives mover 6 to move, and perform stall test on mover 6. The limiting principle of stop block 14 is the same as the principle in S1.1.

[0062] S3.2: Turn on power supply one and power supply two, start motor 8, release the limit of mover 6 by stop block 14, start booster 10, the output end of booster 10 moves downward, booster 10 applies load to mover 6, magnetic force drives mover 6 to move, motor 8 and lead screw 9 drive test assembly to move, so that mover 6 moves under load under the action of magnetic force, and load test is performed on mover 6. By changing the output stroke of booster 10, the load size of mover 6 is changed;

[0063] The electrical testing equipment collects relevant electrical performance data of the rotor during stall tests and load tests, and transmits the electrical performance data to the analysis module.

[0064] It should be noted that cable chains 4 and 5 protect the integrated wiring during high-speed and high-frequency reciprocating motion. The protection principle of the cable chains is existing technology and will not be elaborated here.

[0065] A testing method for a linear motor using an installation testing device, wherein step S4 includes the following method:

[0066] S4.1: Analyze the detection data in S1 and S2 comprehensively, and distinguish between electrical system problems and mechanical system problems based on the differences in the results;

[0067] Since the transmission ratio of lead screw 9 is an inherent property of lead screw 9, the resistance encountered by the mover 6 when moving can be accurately calculated using the torque data collected in S1. The product of the transmission ratio of lead screw 9 and the torque value at a specific time point is the resistance. Ideally, the resistance within a test cycle should fluctuate within the allowable error range. If a sudden change in local resistance is detected and the electrical system is in a power-off state, it indicates that there is a problem with the relevant mechanical system of the linear motor. The staff will investigate the possible faults. Since the mover reciprocates through the test space within a test cycle, the one-way motion time of the mover 6 is T, and the motion time of a test cycle is 2T. T is divided into n time points t, where ti represents the i-th time point, and i takes any integer between 1 and n. Mechanical system problems include the following:

[0068] Scenario 1: Within a time period greater than T, the resistance exceeds the allowable error range;

[0069] Case 2: When i is equal, the time points of the sudden change in resistance are ti and 2T-ti, indicating that the resistance experienced by the mover 6 is within the same range during the round trip.

[0070] Case 3: Based on Case 2, when i is not equal, it means that the resistance experienced by the mover 6 is at different positions during the round trip.

[0071] Since the moving speed of the mover 6 has been measured in S1, the location of the sudden change in resistance can be obtained by simple calculation. In the above situations 1, 2 and 3, the sudden change in resistance may be caused by the processing or installation error of the guide rail 3 and the mover 6. Furthermore, in situations 2 and 3, the sudden change in resistance may be caused by dust particles in the air adhering to the surface of the guide rail 3. The staff will investigate and repair the relevant problems.

[0072] In a linear motor, the magnetic field generated by the permanent magnet interacts with the toothed structure of the armature core to produce magnetic resistance. Therefore, the resistance to the movement of the mover 6 includes mechanical resistance and magnetic resistance. Since the mechanical resistance changes very little and the magnetic resistance is strongly periodic, the fluctuation of magnetic resistance is eliminated by multiple tests in S1, and then the mechanical resistance is obtained.

[0073] Furthermore, power supply one is turned on and power supply two is turned off. By controlling the current supplied by power supply one, the magnitude of the electromagnetic thrust generated by the magnetic field is controlled. The magnetic resistance is obtained by subtracting the mechanical resistance from the electromagnetic thrust. By analyzing the trend of magnetic resistance change during the test cycle, the installation position of the permanent magnet and armature core can be optimized, effectively reducing the influence of magnetic resistance.

[0074] By observing the changing trend of magnetic resistance, the specific location of the magnetic resistance change can be determined. When the mover 6 is about to reach the position where the magnetic resistance changes, the current supplied by the power source is appropriately increased to increase the electromagnetic thrust, thereby compensating for the error of the magnetic resistance.

[0075] Furthermore, under no-load conditions, electrical testing equipment can be used to test the electrical system of the mover 6, including the load current, voltage, and power of the electrical system. By comparing the actual values ​​with the theoretical values, it can be determined whether there is a fault in the electrical system.

[0076] S4.2: Before the stall test, control the rotor 6 to perform a short-range reciprocating motion to eliminate the influence of static friction. Further utilize the test component to restrict the movement of the rotor 6, continuously increase the current, so that the electromagnetic thrust continuously increases. The rotor 6 will move due to the electromagnetic thrust. Since the test component restricts the movement of the rotor 6, the piezoelectric module directly detects the magnitude of the electromagnetic thrust. When the current continues to increase, but the magnitude of the electromagnetic thrust remains unchanged, the detection value of the piezoelectric module is the maximum electromagnetic thrust. Further, the rated current is used to detect the magnitude of the electromagnetic thrust. The maximum electromagnetic thrust and the rated electromagnetic thrust are compared with the theoretical maximum electromagnetic thrust and the theoretical rated electromagnetic thrust, respectively. This can determine whether the permanent magnet and electrical system are qualified. If the actual maximum thrust and rated thrust exceed the theoretical allowable error range, it indicates that the setting of the permanent magnet or electrical system is unreasonable. The relevant equipment should be replaced or the installation process should be optimized.

[0077] Based on the maximum electromagnetic thrust and rated electromagnetic thrust obtained from the stall test, respectively, by subtracting the mechanical resistance measured in S4.1, two sets of magnetic drag data and their corresponding trends can be obtained. Since the two sets of thrust are different, the specific values ​​of the two sets of magnetic drag are different, but the trend of magnetic drag change should be consistent. By cross-validating with the trend of magnetic drag change measured in S4.1, on the one hand, the abnormal change location of magnetic drag can be further accurately located, and on the other hand, the magnetic drag separation results and the determination of the magnetic drag change location in S4.1 can be reverse-validated, which significantly improves the accuracy of the test results.

[0078] S4.3: Current is the core carrier for the conversion of electromagnetic energy and mechanical energy in a motor. The current characteristics under load conditions directly reflect the design rationality, winding health status and drive control accuracy of the linear motor.

[0079] In a linear motor, the electromagnetic thrust must overcome mechanical resistance, magnetic resistance, and external load. The magnitude of the electromagnetic thrust is proportional to the current. Therefore, the analysis module monitors the changing trends of current and external load and plots the relationship curve between current and load. If the curve is continuous and smooth, it indicates that the electrical system is working normally, the magnetic circuit is not saturated, and the winding is fault-free. If the curve shows an inflection point, it may be due to magnetic circuit saturation caused by increased load, or a local short circuit in the winding.

[0080] Furthermore, in the stall test of S3.1, the test component restricts the movement of the rotor 6. In order to continuously increase the electromagnetic thrust, the drive current is continuously increased, which leads to the continuous increase and accumulation of heat generated by the electrical system. This causes the winding resistance to increase with the temperature, resulting in a difference between the actual electromagnetic thrust and the theoretical thrust.

[0081] In the load test of S3.2, the external load will increase the total resistance that the electromagnetic thrust needs to overcome. In order to ensure the moving efficiency of the mover 6, the output current will be continuously increased, which will eventually lead to the continuous accumulation of heat generated by the electrical system.

[0082] In response to the above situation, an infrared thermal imager can be used to continuously monitor the actuator 6 and the electrical system, generating accurate temperature distribution maps and temperature difference comparison maps. The maps can intuitively locate areas of concentrated heat, providing effective reference data for optimizing the installation layout of the electrical system, improving the heat dissipation structure, and troubleshooting poor contacts.
