[0025] The working process of the double-target bolt pretightening force intelligent monitoring system based on laser angle measurement includes four stages: signal acquisition stage, signal conversion stage, data operation stage and result output stage. In the signal acquisition stage, the laser emission module 1 outputs parallel red light, which vertically irradiates target A located on the bolt head (moving with the bolt) and target B located on the surface of the connected part (fixed), so as to realize non-contact angle measurement and provide a light signal basis for subsequent angle difference calculation. The photoelectric receiving module 2 is responsible for receiving the reflected light of the two targets and converting the "reflected light angle difference" into an analog signal, which is collected regularly. The core function is to convert the light signal into an electrical signal for subsequent processing. In the signal conversion stage, the ADC receives the angle difference analog signal of the photoelectric receiving module 2, converts it into a digital signal after conditioning, and realizes high-precision signal conversion to provide accurate digital data for the microprocessor 4 operation. In the data operation stage, the microprocessor 4, as the signal processing core, calculates the bolt pretightening force according to the angle difference digital signal. In the result output stage, the display screen displays the bolt pretightening force in real time.

[0026] The double-target bolt pretightening force intelligent monitoring system based on laser angle measurement of the embodiments of the present application can be used with target A arranged on the bolt head and target B arranged on the surface of the connected part. The angle difference of the reflected light of the two targets is used to monitor the bolt pretightening force. During the monitoring process, the overall displacement of the system has the same effect on the two targets, so that the interference of the overall displacement / vibration of the device on the measurement reference can be eliminated, which helps to improve the environmental adaptability of the system.

[0027] In some embodiments, the laser emission module 1 adopts OSRAM SFH4550 model, the output power is 5mW, and the wavelength is 650nm.

[0028] In some embodiments, the photoelectric receiving module 2 selects Hamamatsu S5991.

[0029] In some embodiments, the analog-to-digital converter 3 selects the ADC of ADS1255 model, the ADC is 24 bits, and the sampling rate is 30kHz.

[0031] In some embodiments, the display 5 selects ST7735 model, and the display 5 is provided with a touch screen. The touch screen is used to input related parameters, such as bolt specifications, material, effective length, calibration coefficient and pretightening force threshold value, etc.

[0032] In some embodiments, the power supply 6 provides power through two paths: one path, after being regulated by a voltage regulator, supplies 3.3V to the ADC, microprocessor 4, and display 5; the other path, after being boosted by a voltage booster, supplies 3.3V to the laser emitting module 1 and photoelectric receiving module 25V. In this embodiment, the power supply 6 is equipped with a charging interface for replenishing power.

[0033] In some embodiments, the microprocessor 4 calculates the preload force through the following steps: The bolt rotation angle is calculated based on the digital signal of the angle difference. The formula for calculating the rotation angle is: X = Y × 180 / π In the above formula, X is the turning angle and Y is the angle difference; Based on the bolt pitch, the bolt angle is converted into elongation. The formula for calculating elongation is: ΔL = (X / 360°) × d In the above formula, X is the rotation angle and d is the pitch; The preload of the bolt is calculated based on the elongation. The formula for calculating the preload is: F = E × A × ΔL / L In the above formula, E is the elastic modulus of the bolt, A is the cross-sectional area of ​​the bolt, ΔL is the elongation, and L is the effective length of the bolt (i.e., the length of the bolt clamping section).

[0034] In other words, the microprocessor 4, as the signal processing core, first converts the angle difference digital signal into the relative rotation angle of the bolt, then calculates the elongation by combining the pre-stored or pre-input bolt pitch, and finally calculates the final preload based on the elongation.

[0035] In some embodiments, the step of the microprocessor 4 calculating the preload includes calibrating the preload according to a friction calibration coefficient to improve measurement accuracy.

[0036] After improvements, microprocessor 4 calculates the preload force through the following steps: The bolt rotation angle is calculated based on the digital signal of the angle difference. The formula for calculating the rotation angle is: X = Y × 180 / π Based on the bolt pitch, the bolt angle is converted into elongation. The formula for calculating elongation is: ΔL = (X / 360°) × d The preload of the bolt is calculated based on the corrected elongation. The formula for calculating the preload is as follows: F = E × A × ΔL / L × k In the above formula, k is the friction calibration coefficient.

[0037] It should be noted that the friction calibration coefficient refers to the calibration coefficient corresponding to the actual friction coefficient, which can be calculated from the theoretical formula of thread preload.

[0038] In some embodiments, the step of calculating the pretightening force by the microprocessor 4 comprises compensating the elongation according to the ambient temperature to improve the measurement accuracy.

[0039] With the above improvement, the microprocessor 4 calculates the pretightening force by the following steps: The bolt rotation angle is calculated according to the angle difference digital signal, and the calculation formula of the rotation angle is: X=Yx180 / π The bolt rotation angle is converted into the elongation according to the bolt pitch, and the calculation formula of the elongation is: ΔL=(X / 360°)xd The thermal expansion compensation is performed according to the temperature digital signal to correct the elongation, and the correction formula of the elongation is: ΔL'=ΔL-αxLxΔT In the above formula, α is the thermal expansion coefficient of the bolt, and ΔT is the difference between the current ambient temperature and the standard temperature.

[0040] The pretightening force of the bolt is calculated according to the corrected elongation, and the calculation formula of the pretightening force is: F=ExAxΔL' / L Or, F=ExAxΔL' / Lxk In the above formula, k is the friction calibration coefficient.

[0041] As can be seen, the system can further comprise a temperature sensor 7 for collecting ambient temperature data. In the present embodiment, the temperature sensor 7 is electrically connected with the analog-to-digital converter 3, the analog-to-digital converter 3 is further used to convert the temperature analog signal into a temperature digital signal, and the microprocessor 4 receives the temperature digital signal and compensates the elongation according to the temperature data of the received temperature digital signal.

[0042] In some embodiments, the system further comprises a circuit board, and the laser emitting module 1, the photoelectric receiving module 2, the analog-to-digital converter 3, the microprocessor 4, the display 5 and the power supply 6 are all integrated on the circuit board. In the present embodiment, the circuit board is a composite circuit board structure, and the circuit board comprises opposite first and second circuit boards 8 and 9. The laser emitting module 1 and the photoelectric receiving module 2 are integrated on the surface of the first circuit board 8 away from the second circuit board 9, the analog-to-digital converter 3 is integrated on the surface of the first circuit board 8 facing the second circuit board 9, the microprocessor 4 and the display 5 are integrated on the surface of the second circuit board 9 facing the first circuit board 8, and the power supply 6 is integrated on the surface of the second circuit board 9 away from the first circuit board 8. In this way, the layered arrangement of the various devices can be achieved, which helps to reduce electromagnetic interference between the devices and ensure the reliability of the system.

[0043] In a specific arrangement, the laser emitting module 1 is connected to the microprocessor 4 through the via signal line by the GPIO control pin, and receives the emission control instruction sent by the microprocessor 4; the photoelectric receiving module 2 transmits the collected reflected light angle difference analog signal to the ADC through the via signal line to convert it into a digital signal; the ADC is connected to the microprocessor 4 through the SPI interface and the via signal line, transmits the processed digital signal to the microprocessor 4, and at the same time, the analog signal collected by the temperature sensor 7 is also transmitted to the ADC through the via signal line to complete the temperature data transmission; the microprocessor 4 is connected to the display 5 through the SPI interface and the FPC flat cable, and outputs real-time data such as pre-tightening force and temperature, and the microprocessor 4 also outputs an alarm signal through the via signal line to realize timely prompting of the device state.

[0044] In some embodiments, the system further comprises a shell 10 with a light-transmitting window 11, and the laser emitting module 1, the photoelectric receiving module 2, the analog-to-digital converter 3, the microprocessor 4, the display 5 and the power supply 6 are all arranged in the shell 10. In this embodiment, the shell 10 can be made of ABS engineering plastic, with a size of 120mm x 80mm x 50mm, a window of 45mm x 35mm reserved on the front, and a 0.3mm thick tempered glass with a light transmittance of not less than 92% embedded. In use, the laser emitting module 1 and the photoelectric receiving module 2 can transmit and receive laser through the tempered glass. In addition, the side of the shell 10 can also be provided with a mounting port for mounting the display 5, so that the user can observe or operate the display 5 from the side of the shell 10. In this way, the integration and protection of the device can be realized, preventing the device from being affected by the external environment and ensuring the reliability of the system.

[0045] In some embodiments, the system further comprises a fixing module arranged in the shell 10 for adsorbing and fixing the shell 10 to a mounting surface. In this embodiment, the fixing module is a magnetic seat arranged on the side of the shell 10 away from the light-transmitting window 11, and the suction force of the magnetic seat is not less than 50N. In this way, the installation efficiency can be improved, which is especially suitable for the rapid maintenance scene of industrial equipment.

[0046] In some embodiments, the system further comprises an alarm module electrically connected to the microprocessor 4 for triggering an alarm when the pre-tightening force is lower than the pre-tightening force threshold. In this embodiment, the alarm module includes a buzzer and an LED. When the pre-tightening force is lower than the threshold, the buzzer sounds and the LED flashes intermittently. Of course, in actual application, the display 5 can also participate in the alarm. For example, when the pre-tightening force is not lower than the threshold, the display 5 displays the green character "pre-tightening force meets the standard", and when the pre-tightening force is lower than the threshold, the display 5 flashes the red character "insufficient pre-tightening force".

[0047] In some embodiments, the system further comprises a communication module electrically connected with the microprocessor 4, for transmitting the monitoring information to an external device or cloud. In the present embodiment, the communication module can comprise a wired communication device and a wireless communication device.

[0048] For the convenience of understanding, the use method of the double-target bolt pretightening force intelligent monitoring system based on laser rotation angle measurement according to the embodiment of the present application is illustrated below.

[0049] 1. Install target A and target B.

[0050] Before installing the targets, the bolt head and the surface of the connected part need to be pretreated. Use a dust-free cloth soaked with 99.9% pure anhydrous alcohol to wipe repeatedly until no obvious stains can be seen on the cloth. This is done to remove oil stains and oxidation layers on the surface, as oil stains can reduce the adhesion of the adhesive, and oxidation layers can affect the surface flatness. After the treatment, use a roughness meter to check and ensure that the surface roughness is controlled within Ra≤1.6μm.

[0051] Install target A. Align and paste the φ10mm×0.5mm polyimide aluminum-plated target (reflectivity≥95%) with the center of the bolt head as the reference, and then press it evenly with a 500g special pressing block with a silicone pad on the bottom for 10 seconds. The silicone pad can prevent scratching the target. The purpose of pressing is to ensure that the gap between the adhesive of target A and the surface of the bolt does not exceed 0.1mm.

[0052] Install target B. First, mark the radial 80mm position on the surface of the connected part with the bolt axis as the center, and then paste target B in the same way. After pasting, use a square ruler to calibrate to ensure that the parallelism deviation between the connecting line of the two targets and the bolt axis does not exceed 0.5°. Then let the adhesive cure for 5 minutes, and after 24 hours, the adhesive strength can reach 10N / cm 2 , which can meet the use requirements in a vibrating environment.

[0053] 2. Install the double-target bolt pretightening force intelligent monitoring system based on laser rotation angle measurement.

[0054] First, use the magnetic seat to fix the system on the installation surface. Use a feeler gauge to check the fit between the bottom surface of the housing and the installation surface to ensure that the gap is ≤0.5mm, preventing relative displacement due to vibration during measurement (in a 10Hz vibrating environment, the displacement needs to be controlled within ≤0.1mm).

[0055] Subsequently short press the power button (at this time the working current < 5mA), the laser emitting module will emit two beams of red light (light spot diameter < 1mm), by adjusting the base on each circle 1mm travel fine tuning knob, let the light spot cover the cross mark in the center of target A and target B, and the offset is not more than 0.5mm. When the display screen on the side of the shell appears green text prompt "alignment success", it means that the alignment is completed.

[0056] 3. Parameter configuration and calibration process.

[0057] Parameter configuration operation is mainly completed through the touch interface of the display screen. First, input the bolt specification "M30x3.5", the system will automatically identify the pitch of 3.5mm, which will be used for the conversion of the angle and the elongation. The specific formula is that the elongation is equal to the angle divided by 360 degrees and multiplied by the pitch; then input the material "35CrMo", the system will call the corresponding 200GPa elastic modulus (E) and 11.5x10 -6 / ℃ thermal expansion coefficient (a) from the built-in material library; then input the effective length "150mm", here the effective length refers to the length (L) of the bolt clamping section, which is the key parameter in the pre-tightening force calculation formula (F=ExAxDL / L, where A is the cross-sectional area of the bolt); finally, input the target pre-tightening force "1800kN", the system will automatically calculate the warning threshold as 1530kN, which is 85% of the target value, and set the data storage interval to 1 second, in order to balance the data volume and timeliness.

[0058] Select a digital torque wrench with a range of 0-1000N•m and an accuracy of ±1%, and tighten the bolt to 500N•m according to the process requirements of bolt pre-tightening. At this time, the corresponding angle is about 6°, which meets the principle of "small torque calibration". Then collect data, the system will record the "torque-angle" data within 5 seconds at a sampling frequency of 20Hz, a total of 100 groups. The microprocessor will perform curve fitting on these data by least squares method, ensuring that the goodness of fit R 2 is not less than 0.99. Finally, calculate the coefficient based on the theoretical formula of thread pre-tightening force (T=KxFxd, where K is the torque coefficient) to inversely calculate the calibration coefficient corresponding to the actual friction coefficient. In this case, the coefficient is 0.98, which will be stored in the Flash memory and will not be lost even after power failure. The coefficient will be automatically introduced in the subsequent calculation of pre-tightening force (i.e. F=calculated value x k).

[0059] 4. The whole process of monitoring and data processing.

[0060] In use, the laser emitting module continuously emits two parallel laser beams with a distance of 20mm, while the photoelectric receiving module outputs 0-5V angle difference analog signals every 100ms, which are converted into digital signals by ADC and transmitted to the microprocessor. At the same time, the temperature sensor collects environmental temperature data every 100ms, which are processed by the signal conditioning circuit (filter bandwidth 10Hz) and input into the ADC.

[0061] After receiving these digital signals, the microprocessor first calculates the relative rotation angle according to the formula "rotation angle = angle difference x 180 / π". For example, if the measured angle difference corresponds to a rotation angle of 18°, combined with the pitch of the bolt 3.5mm, the elongation ΔL = (18° / 360°) x 3.5mm = 0.175mm can be calculated. If the environmental temperature changes, such as from 25℃ to 40℃, the system will automatically perform temperature compensation, and the corrected elongation ΔL' = ΔL - α x L x ΔT, where α is the thermal expansion coefficient of 35CrMo material 11.5 x 10 -6 / ℃, L is the effective length of the bolt 150mm, and ΔT is the temperature difference 15℃. After substitution, ΔL' = 0.175 - 11.5e-6 x 150 x 15 = 0.149mm. Then substitute the pre-tightening force formula F = (E x A x ΔL' / L) x k, where E is the elastic modulus 200GPa, A is the cross-sectional area of the bolt 693mm 2 (the effective area coefficient of the thread is π x (30 / 2) 2 x 0.85), and k is the calibration coefficient 0.98. Finally, the pre-tightening force is calculated to be about 1584kN. When the pre-tightening force reaches or exceeds the target value of 1800kN, the buzzer on the side of the shell will emit a 2-second 60dB prompt sound, and the display screen will pop up a green "standard" word; if the pre-tightening force is below the warning threshold of 1530kN, the display screen will flash a "warning" prompt in red font, and all data will be stored with a timestamp in the format "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS, F(kN), T(℃)".

Therefore, any omission, modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made in the spirit and principle of one or more embodiments of the present specification shall be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
