Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of outer diameter measurement technology, specifically to a method and apparatus for measuring the outer diameter deviation of a precision seamless steel pipe. Background Technology

[0002] Precision seamless steel pipes are widely used in precision industries such as oil and gas transportation. Therefore, the requirements for pipelines made of seamless steel pipes are more stringent. In pipeline welding, if the precision seamless steel pipes produced have unqualified diameters or roundness, misalignment will occur when welding two steel pipes. If unqualified steel pipes are forcibly welded together, the steel pipes will exert tension on each other. Over time, this will significantly reduce the mechanical properties of the weld between the two steel pipes, eventually leading to cracking of the weld and creating serious safety hazards. Therefore, improving the accuracy of outer diameter testing of precision seamless steel pipes is crucial.

[0003] Currently, the common method for measuring the outer diameter of precision seamless steel pipes is the oblique laser triangulation method. This method involves a laser probe shining a laser beam onto the steel pipe, which then reflects the laser beam and shines onto a photoelectric position sensor (PSD). As the distance to the PSD increases, the resistance changes accordingly, which in turn causes a change in current. By analyzing the magnitude of the current, the position of the reflected laser beam on the PSD can be obtained. By measuring the distance between the laser probe, the steel pipe surface, and the PSD, and analyzing the change in distance, the outer diameter of the steel pipe can be obtained.

[0004] When measuring the outer diameter, the steel pipe needs to be transported, rotated, and held by rollers. During this process, due to the large length and diameter of the steel pipe, multiple rollers are required to support it. Due to the unevenness between the rollers and the redundancy of the gears in the roller drive process, the steel pipe vibrates in some positions, causing high-frequency fluctuations when the reflected light beam hits the PSD. These fluctuations affect the length of the measured light path, which in turn leads to errors when measuring the outer diameter of precision seamless steel pipes. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the technical problem of errors in measuring the outer diameter of steel pipes caused by unevenness of the rollers during transport and rotation, this invention aims to provide a method and apparatus for measuring the outer diameter deviation of precision seamless steel pipes. The specific technical solution adopted is as follows:

[0029] For any spectrum graph, the amplitude of all frequencies in the spectrum graph is normalized. The normalized amplitude value is used as the weight of the corresponding frequency. The frequency weight is summed in a weighted manner to obtain the frequency weighted mean of the spectrum graph.

[0030] Using the frequency-weighted mean of the vibration data spectrum during the abnormal deviation period as the numerator and the frequency-weighted mean of the outer diameter data during the abnormal deviation period as the denominator, the same reference for the abnormal deviation period is obtained.

[0031] Determine the reference from the previous normal period;

[0032] The difference between the abnormal deviation period and the previous normal period is used as the amplitude deviation coefficient.

[0033] Furthermore, the analysis of the percentage of time during which the inner and outer diameter data showed abnormal changes during the abnormal deviation period, and the determination of the control anomaly coefficient for the abnormal deviation period, includes:

[0051] The embodiments of the present invention have at least the following beneficial effects:

[0052] This invention identifies abnormal deviation periods not caused by pipe vibration by analyzing the deviations between vibration and outer diameter data at different measurement points of the steel pipe. It then determines a normal segmentation coefficient by analyzing the differences in vibration and outer diameter data between abnormal deviation periods and normal periods. A larger normal segmentation coefficient indicates a segmented period corresponding to the abnormal deviation, rather than an abnormal period caused by the steel pipe itself. By analyzing the proportion of time during which the inner and outer diameter data show abnormal changes during abnormal deviation periods, a control anomaly coefficient is determined for these periods. Finally, combining the normal segmentation coefficient and the control anomaly coefficient, the abnormal data values ​​for the abnormal deviation periods are determined. When the abnormal data values ​​exceed the normal range, the outer diameter data for the corresponding abnormal deviation period is remeasured. This invention remeasures abnormal deviation periods that may be caused by fluctuations, avoiding errors that can easily occur in single outer diameter measurements due to pipe vibration, thus improving the accuracy of outer diameter deviation measurements for precision seamless steel pipes.

[0060] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains.

[0061] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art will recognize that, with technological advancements and the emergence of new scenarios, the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present invention are also applicable to similar technical problems.

[0062] This invention provides a specific implementation method and device for measuring the outer diameter deviation of precision seamless steel pipes. This method is applicable to steel pipe measurement scenarios. In this scenario, an outer diameter measuring device is deployed. This device is a laser displacement sensor, which includes a laser probe and a PSD (Power Distribution Detector). When measuring the outer diameter of a precision seamless steel pipe, a modular robotic arm aligns its rotation center with the center of the pipe. A pulsed laser is emitted onto the surface of the pipe through the laser probe and received by the PSD, thus obtaining the laser path.

[0063] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, details the specific scheme of the method and apparatus for measuring the outer diameter deviation of a precision seamless steel pipe provided by the present invention.

[0064] Please see Figure 1The diagram illustrates a flowchart of a method for measuring the outer diameter deviation of a precision seamless steel pipe according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method includes the following steps:

[0065] Step S100: Obtain vibration data and outer diameter data of the precision seamless steel pipe at each measurement point.

[0066] When the steel pipe is conveyed to the measuring device by rollers, measuring points are set at fixed intervals on the precision seamless steel pipe. The laser probe of the measuring device is arranged above the steel pipe, and the laser emitted by the laser probe is vertically irradiated on the steel pipe.

[0067] First, the outer diameter of the precision seamless steel pipe at each measurement point is measured using the oblique laser triangulation method. This outer diameter is the outer radius of the precision seamless steel pipe. The specific measurement process is as follows: During the measurement, the roller drives the steel pipe to rotate 360 ​​degrees, and the laser probe emits a high-frequency laser pulse towards the steel pipe. The pulse frequency is selected as 500kHz. The interface of the steel pipe surface is constructed using the position where the laser irradiates the steel pipe surface as the tangent point. The laser reflection angle is obtained by measuring the incident angle of the laser, and a PSD photosensitive device is installed on the path of the reflection angle. Ideally, the tangent plane is constructed using the standard radius position of the steel pipe as the tangent point. When the reflected laser path passes through the plane where the laser probe is located, the position where the reflected laser path passes through is taken as the center of the PSD photosensitive device.

[0068] The outer diameter data measured at each sampling time is used to construct a time series sequence, resulting in an outer diameter data sequence. It should be noted that each sampling time corresponds to a specific measurement point. For example, if there are 200 measurement points on the steel pipe, each sampling time corresponds to one measurement point, and the corresponding outer diameter data sequence contains 200 outer diameter data points.

[0069] Simultaneously, vibration sensors are installed on the roller module at the measurement point, ensuring that the measurement frequency of the vibration sensors matches the laser pulse frequency. This yields a sequence of vibration data at all sampling times, denoted as the vibration data sequence. It should be noted that the vibration data collected by the vibration sensors is in the form of vibration displacement.

[0070] Step S200: Analyze the vibration deviation between the vibration data and the outer diameter data to obtain the time period of abnormal deviation.

[0071] Because the steel pipe is hollow and has a relatively long length, it may vibrate during the movement of the rollers, which can affect the accuracy of the outer diameter measurement. There are two reasons for the vibration of the steel pipe: firstly, the linkage between multiple rollers causes the steel pipe to deform and vibrate; secondly, the hollow effect of the steel pipe causes it to resonate.

[0072] Normally, the outer diameter of a steel pipe is measured and evaluated using oblique laser triangulation. However, in practice, if the steel pipe itself vibrates, this vibration will affect the laser's trajectory. Since the steel pipe is annular with a curved surface, even a small vibration can cause deviations in the cross-section of the laser beam irradiated on the pipe, resulting in high-frequency variations in the reflected path onto the PSD (Polarization and Deposition of Surface) surface. That is, if the steel pipe vibrates, the vibration will closely approximate the change in the outer diameter measured by the PSD. Therefore, in this embodiment of the invention, the deviation between the vibration data and the outer diameter data of the steel pipe is analyzed to identify periods of abnormal deviation. These periods of abnormal deviation constitute a time interval.

[0073] First, a time-series window is constructed. For the i-th sampling time, the time-series window is selected before the i-th sampling time, that is, the time within the time-series window is the 100 sampling times before the i-th sampling time. The outer diameter data subsequence corresponding to the i-th sampling time is obtained, and the Fourier transform of the outer diameter data subsequence is performed to obtain the corresponding spectrum. This spectrum is the spectrum of the outer diameter data at the i-th sampling time.

[0074] Similarly, the vibration data subsequence within the time window corresponding to the i-th sampling time is obtained, and a Fourier transform is performed on the vibration data subsequence to obtain the corresponding spectrum. This spectrum is the spectrum corresponding to the vibration data at the i-th sampling time. In this embodiment of the invention, the length of the time window is set to 100, that is, the time window contains 100 sampling times.

[0075] The spectrum diagram can reflect the fluctuation. If the fluctuation in the outer diameter data of the steel pipe is due to laser vibration caused by the vibration of the steel pipe, resulting in positional fluctuations when it is irradiated on the PSD, then the difference between the spectrum diagrams corresponding to the normal vibration data and the outer diameter data will be smaller. If the difference between the two spectrum diagrams is larger, it indicates that the difference is not caused by fluctuation. If the steel pipe itself does not have a change in vibration frequency, but the radius of the steel pipe has changed significantly, it indicates that the outer diameter of the steel pipe may be abnormal.

[0076] Therefore, further analysis is conducted on the deviation between the frequency spectra of the vibration data and the outer diameter data at the same moment to determine the frequency variation coefficient. More specifically:

[0077] Use any time as the target time and any frequency as the target frequency;

[0078] The difference in amplitude of the target frequency between the spectrum graph corresponding to the vibration data and the spectrum graph corresponding to the outer diameter data at the target time is calculated as the amplitude measurement difference of the target frequency at the target time. It should be noted that the frequency interval between the two spectrum graphs remains consistent, the horizontal axis of the spectrum graph represents the frequency, and the horizontal axis of the spectrum graph is arranged in ascending order of frequency.

[0079] Based on the frequency, the contribution weight corresponding to the frequency is determined. This contribution weight is a normalized value of the frequency. The higher the frequency, the closer the contribution weight is to 1, and vice versa.

[0080] For the target frequency, a single variation coefficient of the target frequency is obtained by combining the amplitude measurement difference and the contribution weight.

[0081] By combining the single variation coefficients of all frequencies at the target time, the frequency variation coefficient at the target time is obtained.

[0082] Taking the i-th time as the target time and the j-th frequency as the target frequency, the frequency variation coefficient at the i-th time... The calculation method is as follows:

[0083] ;

[0084] in, Let be the union of the frequencies in the spectrum of the outer diameter data subsequence at time i and the spectrum of the vibration data subsequence; Let be the amplitude of the j-th frequency in the spectrum of the outer diameter data subsequence. Let be the amplitude of the j-th frequency in the spectrum of the amplitude data subsequence. The contribution weight for the j-th frequency; It is the single variation coefficient of the j-th spectrum at the target time; Let be the amplitude measurement difference of the j-th spectrum at the target time.

[0085] The logic for obtaining contribution weights is as follows: In the spectrum diagram, high frequency represents the frequency of rapid fluctuations, and low frequency represents the trend of data. Both vibration and the position change of the laser on the PSD are high-frequency changes. In the low-frequency data, since there is no rigid connection between the vibration of the roller and the vibration of the steel pipe, there is a certain difference in the vibration trend. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the difference in low-frequency data.

[0086] Furthermore, after obtaining the frequency variation coefficient at each time step, a sequence of frequency variation coefficients at each time step is constructed.

[0087] When the variations in the vibration data subsequence and the outer diameter data subsequence are not equal, it indicates that there may be an outer diameter deviation, which may lead to differences in PSD reflection.

[0088] Therefore, the mean of the frequency variation coefficient sequence is obtained, and this mean is used as a preset variation threshold. The time corresponding to the frequency variation coefficient that is greater than the preset variation threshold is taken as the abnormal deviation time. The abnormal deviation time period is composed of consecutive abnormal deviation times.

[0089] Step S300: Based on the difference between the vibration data corresponding to the abnormal deviation period and the previous normal period, and the difference between the outer diameter data corresponding to the abnormal deviation period and the previous normal period, determine the abnormal deviation period as the normal segmentation coefficient of the segmentation period.

[0090] The principle of PSD output is to calculate the average centroid position of the laser spot on the PSD at each moment. It cannot distinguish whether it is a single moving spot or multiple spots existing simultaneously, thus producing dynamic errors. The reason for the dynamic errors is that the PSD's electronic circuitry is affected by the limited bandwidth, which makes the response of the electronic circuitry take time. If the laser spot moves at high speed on the PSD, that is, its speed exceeds the response time of the PSD's circuitry, the output signal cannot keep up with the actual displacement change, resulting in phase lag and amplitude attenuation. At the same time, if the jitter speed exceeds the bandwidth of the PSD's front-end circuitry, the output signal will be severely distorted and unable to reflect the true displacement of the spot. Specifically, in the measured outer diameter data sequence, this will cause a decrease in the amplitude of the outer diameter data sequence.

[0091] When the amplitude decreases, it leads to an amplitude difference between the outer diameter data sequence and the vibration data sequence at the same frequency, resulting in an excessively high frequency variation coefficient. Therefore, this invention further analyzes the separation between the frequency changes of the outer diameter data sequence and the changes of the vibration data sequence. Specifically, when the frequency of the vibration data sequence increases, the frequency of the outer diameter data sequence decreases compared to the vibration data sequence, indicating a higher probability of PSD separation.

[0092] For the m-th abnormal deviation period, obtain the period of the nearest non-abnormal deviation period before the m-th abnormal deviation period, and denot it as the previous normal segment before the m-th abnormal deviation period.

[0093] Spectrum diagrams of the outer diameter data sequence and vibration data sequence were obtained for the m-th abnormal deviation period and the previous normal period, respectively.

[0094] Based on the differences in vibration data and outer diameter data between the abnormal deviation period and the previous normal period, the abnormal deviation period is determined as the normal segmentation coefficient for the segmented period. Specifically:

[0095] Analyze the differences in vibration data between the abnormal deviation period and the previous normal period to determine the amplitude deviation coefficient. Specifically:

[0096] For any spectrum graph, the amplitude of all frequencies in the spectrum graph is normalized. The normalized amplitude value is used as the weight of the corresponding frequency. The frequency weighted sum of all frequencies in the spectrum graph is then obtained to obtain the frequency weighted mean of the spectrum graph. In the same spectrum graph, when normalizing the amplitude of all frequencies, the sum of the normalized amplitudes of all frequencies is limited to 1.

[0097] The frequency-weighted average of the vibration data spectrum during the abnormal deviation period is used as the numerator, and the frequency-weighted average of the outer diameter data during the abnormal deviation period is used as the denominator to obtain the common reference for the abnormal deviation period; the common reference for the previous normal period is determined; and the difference between the common references of the abnormal deviation period and the previous normal period is used as the amplitude deviation coefficient.

[0098] Analyze the differences in outer diameter data between the abnormal deviation period and the previous normal period to determine the outer diameter deviation coefficient. More specifically: obtain the maximum amplitude value among all frequencies in the spectrum of the outer diameter data corresponding to the abnormal deviation period, and use the frequency corresponding to the maximum amplitude value as the benchmark frequency; use the difference between the amplitude value of the maximum amplitude corresponding to the abnormal deviation period and the amplitude of the benchmark frequency in the spectrum of the outer diameter data corresponding to the previous normal period as the outer diameter deviation coefficient.

[0099] By combining the amplitude deviation coefficient and the outer diameter deviation coefficient, the abnormal deviation period is determined as the normal segmentation coefficient of the segmentation period; among them, the amplitude deviation coefficient and the outer diameter deviation coefficient are both positively correlated with the normal segmentation coefficient.

[0100] In this embodiment of the invention, taking the m-th abnormal deviation time period as an example, the normal segmentation coefficient of the m-th abnormal deviation time period is obtained. :

[0101] ;

[0102] in, The maximum amplitude of all frequencies in the spectrum of the outer diameter data during the m-th abnormal deviation period; In the outer diameter data of the previous normal period before the m-th abnormal deviation period, the maximum amplitude value is... The amplitude of the corresponding benchmark frequency; The outer diameter deviation coefficient is the value for the m-th abnormal deviation period. The frequency-weighted mean of the vibration data during the m-th abnormal deviation period is the frequency plot of the vibration data. The frequency-weighted mean of the outer diameter data for the m-th abnormal deviation period is the frequency-weighted average of the frequency plot. For the m-th abnormal deviation period, use the same reference. The frequency-weighted mean of the vibration data corresponding to the frequency plot of the previous normal period before the m-th abnormal deviation period; The frequency-weighted mean of the outer diameter data corresponding to the frequency plot of the previous normal period before the m-th abnormal deviation period; This is the reference for the previous normal period before the m-th abnormal deviation period; is the amplitude variation coefficient for the m-th abnormal deviation period; sigmoid is the Sigmoid function.

[0103] in, This indicates the attenuation of the amplitude. The greater the amplitude attenuation, the higher the probability of dynamic error in PSD measurement. The ratio of the frequency of the outer diameter data to the frequency of the vibration data is given. When dynamic error occurs, the frequency-weighted mean of the outer diameter data decreases, while the frequency-weighted mean of the vibration data increases relatively. In other words, the frequency difference between the two becomes separated, deviating from the covariant property.

[0104] Step S400: Analyze the percentage of time during which the inner and outer diameter data show abnormal changes during the abnormal deviation period, and determine the control abnormality coefficient for the abnormal deviation period.

[0105] The local concavity of a seamless steel pipe causes bulges on both sides, which is based on the law of constant volume and plastic flow characteristics of metallic materials.

[0106] When a seamless steel pipe is subjected to a concentrated external force, such as abnormal pressure from rollers, collisions during handling, or clamping, this force acts on the surface of the pipe. The metal in a localized area of ​​the seamless steel pipe surface will experience strong compressive stress. Under the action of compressive stress, metals with lower yield strength will undergo plastic deformation. Since the steel pipe is a continuous and constrained whole, the metal in the recessed area cannot simply disappear. This material must go to other places. The main flow paths of the material include along the axial direction, along the radial direction, and along the circumferential direction of the steel pipe. The combined action of the axial and radial directions will cause localized recesses, while the circumferential flow direction is subject to the shear force of the continuous steel pipe and the annular support force, which will cause the material flowing in the circumferential direction to bulge to a certain extent. As a result, the measured outer diameter data of the steel pipe will change under the overall trend of the outer diameter data corresponding to the abnormal deviation period.

[0107] Therefore, further analysis is conducted on the proportion of time during which the inner and outer diameter data show abnormal changes during the abnormal deviation period to determine the control anomaly coefficient for the abnormal deviation period. Specifically, for the outer diameter data corresponding to the m-th abnormal deviation period, the second derivative is calculated at each moment, that is, the second derivative of the inner and outer diameter data at different moments during the abnormal deviation period is determined; the moment when the second derivative is greater than 0 is taken as the moment when the outer diameter data shows abnormal changes; then, the cumulative duration of the moment when the outer diameter data shows abnormal changes is calculated, and its proportion in the abnormal deviation period is used as the control anomaly coefficient for the abnormal deviation period. ;in, The control anomaly coefficient for the m-th abnormal deviation period; This represents the number of moments in the m-th abnormal deviation period where the outer diameter data shows abnormal changes. This represents the length of the m-th abnormal deviation period, which is also the number of moments within the m-th abnormal deviation period.

[0108] When the second derivative is greater than 0, the characterization curve is concave, meaning that the two sides protrude from the middle. The larger the value, the larger the range of the suspected deviation radius segment occupied by this concavity, which means that the anomaly of the steel pipe is higher.

[0109] Step S500: Combine the normal segmentation coefficient and the control anomaly coefficient to determine the abnormal data value during the abnormal deviation period; when the abnormal data value exceeds the normal range, remeasure the outer diameter data under the corresponding abnormal deviation period.

[0110] The larger the control anomaly coefficient of the m-th abnormal deviation period, the more likely the m-th abnormal deviation period is caused by extrusion deformation. The smaller the normal segmentation coefficient of the m-th abnormal deviation period, the smaller the error measured by the oblique laser triangulation method, and the higher the possibility of anomalies in the steel pipe.

[0111] Therefore, the abnormal data values ​​for the m-th abnormal deviation period are determined by using the normal segmentation coefficient and the control abnormality coefficient. Specifically, the normal segmentation coefficient is negatively correlated to obtain the abnormal segmentation coefficient; the abnormal data values ​​for the abnormal deviation period are determined by combining the abnormal segmentation coefficient and the control abnormality coefficient. Both the abnormal segmentation coefficient and the control abnormality coefficient are positively correlated with the abnormal data values.

[0112] In some embodiments, the control anomaly coefficient is used as the numerator, the normal segmentation coefficient is used as the denominator, and the normalized ratio is used as the data anomaly value during the abnormal deviation period.

[0113] In other embodiments, the product of the anomaly segmentation coefficient and the control anomaly coefficient can also be used as the data anomaly value during the anomaly deviation period.

[0114] A preset anomaly detection threshold of 0.7 is set. When the value of an outlier exceeds this threshold, it indicates a higher probability of anomalies in that radius segment, suggesting the presence of significant vibration parameter interference in the data. Therefore, the data for that period of abnormal deviation is remeasured. It should be noted that the preset anomaly detection threshold can be adjusted by the implementer based on actual circumstances. The preset anomaly detection threshold of 0.7 in this invention was determined through long-term observation and analysis of historical data.

[0115] The remeasurement method is as follows: the seamless steel pipe is fixed in place by rollers and clamping equipment, and the midpoint of the m-th abnormal deviation period is oriented directly upward; the measuring module rotates around the steel pipe through a rotating mechanical structure to remeasure the outer diameter data of the m-th abnormal deviation period. The remeasured steel pipe radius sequence is the outer diameter of the steel pipe with outer diameter deviation after eliminating vibration interference.

[0117] The initial measurement module is used to acquire vibration data and outer diameter data of the steel pipe at each measurement point;

[0118] The initial time period determination module is used to analyze the vibration deviation between vibration data and outer diameter data to obtain the time period of abnormal deviation;

[0119] The first analysis module is used to determine the normal segmentation coefficient of the abnormal deviation period as the segmentation period based on the difference between the vibration data corresponding to the previous normal period and the difference between the outer diameter data corresponding to the abnormal deviation period and the previous normal period.

[0120] The second analysis module is used to analyze the percentage of time during which the inner and outer diameter data show abnormal changes during the abnormal deviation period, and to determine the control abnormality coefficient for the abnormal deviation period.

[0121] The data remeasurement module is used to determine the abnormal data values ​​during abnormal deviation periods by combining the normal segmentation coefficient and the control anomaly coefficient; when the abnormal data values ​​exceed the normal range, the outer diameter data under the corresponding abnormal deviation period is remeasured.
