[0034] The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present application can be implemented in various different ways as defined and covered below.

[0035] Figure 1 is a structural diagram of a preferred embodiment of the present application; Figure 2 is a curve diagram of the interface rub-impact contact load variation of embodiment one of the present application.

[0036] As shown in Figure 1 , the two-dimensional force measuring device of the metal member under high-speed rub-impact condition of the present embodiment comprises:

[0037] a sliding table module, used for mounting the test piece in the loading shaft system and moving towards the simulated blade or away from the simulated blade under the external driving to rub-impact the test piece with the simulated blade;

[0038] a feeding system, comprising a first driving mechanism for providing power, and the first driving mechanism is drivingly connected with the sliding table module;

[0039] a data acquisition system, comprising a detection unit arranged in the loading shaft system, the detection unit being a two-dimensional force sensor, used for collecting the normal pressure and friction force during rub-impact, and the data acquisition system is also used for recording the normal pressure and friction force data collected by the two-dimensional force sensor.

[0040] Among them, the measuring device is applied to the rub-impact test, and the rub-impact test equipment further comprises a second driving mechanism, the second driving mechanism being a high-speed motor; the simulated blade is arranged at the output end of the second driving mechanism, and the second driving mechanism is used for driving the simulated blade to rotate circumferentially; the loading shaft system comprises an extension shaft and a connecting shaft, and the detection unit is arranged between the extension shaft and the connecting shaft.

[0041] It can be understood that the present measuring device is applied to the rub-impact test equipment to measure the rub-impact test mechanical data under the simulated working condition of an aero-engine. When the test is performed, the second driving mechanism drives the simulated blade to rotate circumferentially, the feeding system is driven to drive the slide module to move back and forth along a straight line, the test piece of the casing is brought into contact with the simulated blade, and the specific control is that the feeding system drives the slide module to always move to the simulated blade, so that the test piece of the casing and the simulated blade are in continuous contact, and the continuous contact and friction therebetween are realized, or the feeding system drives the slide module to move back and forth along a straight line, so that the test piece of the casing and the simulated blade are in intermittent contact, the intermittent contact and rub-impact are realized, the friction state of the failure process of the aero-engine is simulated, the two-dimensional force sensor provided by the measuring device on the loading shaft between the slide module and the test piece of the casing collects the normal pressure and the friction force during the rub-impact, the contact load change characteristic data of the test piece are detected and acquired, the effective measurement of the contact force under the real working condition of the aero-engine is realized, the different frequency contact forces can be effectively captured, and the key parameters for evaluating the fire retardant performance of the cold fire retardant coating, predicting the service life of the component and verifying the thermodynamic model are provided.

[0042] In some preferred embodiments, the two-dimensional force sensor comprises a shell, the shell is a double-layer structure and is formed with a sandwich cavity, the sandwich cavity is respectively provided with a liquid inlet for introducing cooling liquid and a liquid outlet for leading out cooling liquid; it can be understood that the shell of the detection unit is provided as a double-layer structure to form a sandwich cavity, and the circulating water introduced into the sandwich cavity is cooled, on the one hand, the surrounding of various sensors is cooled to ensure that the working temperature environment of the sensors is in a room temperature state, and on the other hand, the outer wall of the test cabin is cooled to ensure the safe operation of the test personnel.

[0043] In some preferred embodiments, the first driving mechanism comprises a servo motor and a speed reducer, the speed reducer is connected with the ball screw through a transmission shaft, and the slide module is arranged on the ball screw.

[0044] In some preferred embodiments, the data acquisition system further includes a charge amplifier matched to the detection unit, adapted for use with a two-dimensional force sensor, which is widely used in aerospace testing and other fields, and features high sensitivity, strong anti-interference capability, and fast dynamic response; the lead of the slide module is 10±2mm; the rated power of the servo motor is matched with the lead and horizontal loading force of the slide module; the two-dimensional force sensor meets the conditions of ±10KN for normal force and ±4KN for tangential force. In one specific embodiment, the slide feed speed in the slide module is calculated to have a lead of 10mm based on predetermined experimental feed parameters, and the feed time can reach 0.2~0.5s; the two-dimensional force sensor is calculated using a slide lead of 10mm and a horizontal loading force upper limit of 5000N. The servo motor has a rated power of 1.0KW. Based on this, a 110 servo motor (rated power 1.2KW, rated torque 6N·m, rated speed 1500rpm) was selected as the power source. The reducer is a planetary reducer. The reduction ratio of the selected planetary reducer was calculated to be 1:15 based on the feed test parameters of 0.2~0.5s. The maximum allowable bending and tensile load of the ball screw was calculated to be approximately 29696N based on the maximum axial load of 4000N and the maximum feed speed of 2.5mm / s during loading. Precision linear ball guides and precision ball screws that meet the test conditions were selected. Through mechanical simulation of the contact force at the aero-engine component level, a two-dimensional force sensor with a normal force of ±10KN and a tangential force of ±4KN was selected.

[0045] On the other hand, a preferred embodiment of the present invention also provides a method for measuring two-dimensional force under high-speed collision conditions of metal components, which utilizes the aforementioned two-dimensional force measuring device under high-speed collision conditions of metal components, and the measurement method includes:

[0046] S1. Calibration of two-dimensional force sensor;

[0047] S2. Delineation of the initial contact position;

[0048] S3. Impact Test and Data Acquisition.

[0049] Understandably, this measurement method effectively eliminates systematic errors introduced by the feeding process and test piece installation through calibration steps, improving measurement accuracy. After defining the starting point position, the feed of the casing is controlled based on the starting point. Based on the impact combustion test equipment and this measurement device, impact tests are conducted to collect and record transient data of contact load at the coating / substrate interface during the impact process. This enables the detection and acquisition of characteristic data of impact contact load changes in the test piece, achieving effective measurement of contact force under real aero-engine operating conditions. This provides key parameters for evaluating the flame retardant performance of cold flame retardant coatings, predicting component life, and verifying thermodynamic models.

[0050] In some preferred embodiments, step S1 includes:

[0051] S11. Apply the set standard force to the two-dimensional force sensor;

[0052] S12. Use the actual force value displayed in real time by the force gauge as input to calibrate the stress value and complete the data acquisition of each calibration point of friction force and pressure;

[0053] S13. Calculate the proportionality coefficient to make the system display value consistent with the force measurement value.

[0054] Understandably, step S1 is implemented using computer software. A set standard force is applied to the two-dimensional force sensor, and the actual force value displayed in real time by the force gauge is used as input. The stress value calibration button is clicked to complete the data acquisition of each calibration point for friction and pressure. After all calibration points are acquired, the computer automatically calculates the proportional coefficient to ensure that the computer display value is consistent with the force gauge value. The calibration steps effectively eliminate systematic errors introduced by the feeding process and test piece installation, and greatly improve the measurement accuracy. This can be achieved by pre-writing the existing calculation and processing program into the data processing system, which will not be elaborated on here.

[0055] In some preferred embodiments, step s2 includes:

[0056] The casing test piece is fed at a preset low rate by the feeding system. When the two-dimensional force sensor detects a force fluctuation of 5 to 10 N, the position of the detected force fluctuation is taken as the starting point. It can be understood that when the casing test piece and the simulated blade are in a state of separation, the force sensor has no signal transmission. When the two are in contact, the position of the casing test piece and the simulated blade in contact is taken as the starting point when the force sensor detects the minimum load (5 to 10 N).

[0057] In some preferred embodiments, step S3 includes:

[0058] The slide module retracts by a stroke A based on the starting point position; the slide feed stroke is set to A+X and the feed time is set, where X is the experimental value.

[0059] It is understandable that by driving the slide table forward at low speed through the servo motor, when the force sensor displays a force value (~10N), it can be confirmed that this is the initial position of the collision. The slide table moves back a certain distance (e.g., 0.5mm), and the forward stroke (0.5+X mm) and time of the slide table are set on the computer software, where X is the test value.

[0060] In some preferred embodiments, step S3 includes:

[0061] The simulated blade rotates at a preset speed, the feeding system controls the slide module to feed at a preset feed rate and rub against the blade at a preset time, and the data acquisition system collects and records the normal pressure and friction data during the rubbing process.

[0062] Example 1

[0063] In this embodiment, the dynamic contact force variation law of the coating / substrate interface of a compressor casing simulation component of a certain type of aero-engine is measured, specifically including:

[0064] S1. Calibration of two-dimensional force sensor:

[0065] Apply a set standard force to the two-dimensional force sensor, use the actual force value displayed in real time on the force gauge as input, click the stress value calibration button, and complete the data acquisition of each calibration point for friction and pressure respectively. After all calibration points are acquired, the computer automatically calculates the proportional coefficient to ensure that the computer display value is consistent with the force gauge value.

[0066] S2, Delineation of the initial contact position:

[0067] The machine casing is fed at a rate of 0.01 mm / s by the feed system. When the two-dimensional force sensor detects a force fluctuation of 5 to 10 N, that position is taken as the starting point.

[0068] S3. Impact Test and Data Acquisition:

[0069] Based on the titanium alloy friction ignition simulation device disclosed in application number 202110849484.7, and this measuring device, the specific test conditions are: friction rotation speed 300 m / s, friction time 0.5 s, and friction feed rate 0.4 mm / s. The sample is placed under the above test conditions, the sampling rate is set to 700 Hz, the acquisition duration is 1 second, and the transient data of contact load at the coating / substrate interface during the friction process are recorded. (Refer to...) Figure 2 Compared to the technical solution disclosed in 202110849484.7, which uses the displacement measurement to reflect the deformation and calculate the normal pressure, this measuring device and method can detect and obtain the characteristic data of the rubbing load change of the test piece, and can effectively measure the contact force under real aero-engine operating conditions. It provides key parameters for evaluating the flame retardant performance of cold flame retardant coatings, predicting component life, and verifying thermodynamic models.
