Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of multi-section aerospace product assembly technology, specifically a high-precision docking device for multi-section aerospace products. Background Technology
[0002] For some aerospace products with multiple sections, since these sections are mostly small and thin-walled, docking and installation are currently mostly done manually. This method has the following drawbacks: First, the traditional section docking process requires multiple people to work together, and the docking posture can only be adjusted manually, making precise measurement impossible. In addition, since the product has multiple docking sections, the entire docking process is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Second, the sections contain precision components, and the internal gaps are small when the sections are nested and docked. Furthermore, the docking process cannot be observed from the outside, which can easily lead to damage to the components and render them unusable. Third, there are sealing rings at the joints of the sections. The docking force and position must be accurately controlled during docking to avoid damaging the sealing rings. However, the traditional docking method mainly relies on the experience of assembly workers and lacks quantitative indicators for reference. Summary of the Invention

[0015] This invention features a movable measuring component on one side of the base. When adjacent sections are joined, the measuring component moves to the joining area, and the axis measuring device in the measuring component first extends to detect whether the axes of the two adjacent sections are aligned, in order to avoid the risk of internal components being damaged by scratches during the joining assembly. Then, the vision measuring device in the measuring component extends to measure the positional angle deviation of the positioning pins and positioning grooves at the ends of the two adjacent sections, thereby causing the adjacent sections to rotate and adjust around their own axes according to the detection results, so as to ensure that the positioning pins and positioning grooves at the adjacent ends are aligned. During the joining process of adjacent sections, the first joining force sensor at the lower end of the active support component of the reference section and the second joining force sensor at the lower end of the driven support component of the reference section can detect the joining force of the sections in real time, and the gap measuring device in the measuring component can detect the joining gap of the sections in real time to determine the joining position. Furthermore, the above measures can also avoid damage to the sealing rings at the ends of the sections. Therefore, this invention can ensure the assembly quality through the above design.

At the same time, the holding components on both sides of each support component can also be adjusted to meet the assembly needs of product segments of different diameters. Therefore, the present invention is applicable to the assembly of product segments of various specifications, has a wide range of applications, and is flexible in use. Attached Figure Description

In this embodiment, the measuring drive module 101 includes a measuring drive device 1011 and a measuring drive screw. The measuring drive screw is driven to rotate by the measuring drive device 1011. The measuring moving frame 601 is provided with a measuring nut fitted onto the measuring drive screw. In addition, the measuring moving frame 601 is provided with a moving frame slider 602, which cooperates with a slide rail provided on the base to achieve a sliding connection. The measuring drive device 1011 can be a geared servo motor.
[0045] like Figure 11 As shown, in this embodiment, the upper end of the measuring moving frame 601 is provided with a vision driving module 604, an axis measurement driving module 606, and a gap measuring driving module 603. The vision measuring device 605 is driven to move by the vision driving module 604, the axis measurement device 607 is driven to move by the axis measurement driving module 606, and the gap measuring device 608 is driven to move by the gap measuring driving module 603. The vision driving module 604, axis measurement driving module 606, and gap measuring driving module 603 can adopt the same structure as the measuring driving module 101. For example, the vision driving module 604 includes a driving device 6041 and a driving screw, and the driving screw is driven to rotate by the driving device 6041. The lower side of the seat of the vision measuring device 605 is provided with a driving nut fitted onto the driving screw.
[0046] In operation, the axis measuring device 607 first extends to detect whether the axes of two adjacent segments are aligned and to determine whether there is a risk of internal damage to internal components due to scratches during assembly. Then, the vision measuring device 605 extends to measure the positional angle deviation of the positioning pins and positioning grooves at the ends of the two adjacent segments. The adjacent segments then rotate and adjust around their own axes according to the detection results to align the positioning pins and positioning grooves at the adjacent ends. The docking segment then moves towards the reference segment 702 to achieve docking. During the docking process, the corresponding docking force sensor detects the docking force of the segments in real time. At the same time, the gap measuring device 608 detects the gap between the segments to determine whether the docking is in place.
[0047] The visual measurement device 605, axis measurement device 607, and gap measuring device 608 are all commercially available products. For example, the visual measurement device 605 can be a visual camera, and the axis measurement device 607 and gap measuring device 608 can be laser measurement sensors.
[0048] The working principle of this invention is as follows: The present invention includes the following steps in operation: Step 1: The active support component 2 and the driven support component 3 of the reference segment move and adjust their positions along the base 1 according to the length of the reference segment 702. After they are moved into place, the reference segment 702 is placed in and supported and positioned by the active support component 2 and the driven support component 3 of the reference segment.
[0049] In this step, after the reference segment 702 is placed, the active support wheel 2081 on the active support component 2 of the reference segment supports the lower front end of the reference segment 702, and the driven support wheel 3081 on the driven support component 3 of the reference segment supports the lower rear end of the reference segment 702. Then, the first radial cylinder 206 on the active support component 2 of the reference segment drives the two first holding components 207 to close, and the two first holding components 207 hold the front end of the reference segment 702 from above to fix it. The second radial cylinder 306 on the active support component 2 of the reference segment drives the two second holding components 307 to close, and the two second holding components 307 hold the rear end of the reference segment 702 from above to fix it.
[0050] Step 2: The front docking section support assembly 4 and the rear docking section support assembly 5 are moved and adjusted along the base 1 according to the length of the front docking section 701 and the length of the rear docking section 703, as well as the assembly technical requirements. After they are moved into place, the front docking section 701 is placed in and supported and fixed by the front docking section support assembly 4, and the rear docking section 703 is placed in and supported and fixed by the rear docking section support assembly 5.
[0051] In this step, after the current docking segment 701 is placed, the front drive wheel 405 and the front driven wheel 4031 on the front docking segment support assembly 4 jointly support the lower side of the front docking segment 701. Then, the first front drive cylinder 404 on the front docking segment support assembly 4 drives the front drive wheel slide 405 and the front support slide 403 at the front end to close, thereby closing the two third holding components 407 at the front end. The second front drive cylinder 408 drives the two front support slides 403 at the rear end to close, thereby closing the two third holding components 407 at the rear end. Then, each third holding component 407 holds the front docking segment 701 from the top to fix it.
[0052] In this step, when the rear docking section 703 is inserted, the rear drive wheel 505 and the rear driven wheel 5031 on the rear docking section support assembly 5 jointly support the lower side of the rear docking section 703. The rear drive cylinder 504 drives the two fourth holding assemblies 507 to close, and then the fourth holding assemblies 507 hold the rear docking section 703 from the top and fix it.
[0053] Step 3: After the front docking section 701 and the rear docking section 703 are placed, the front docking section support assembly 4 and the rear docking section support assembly 5 can be moved and adjusted again according to the assembly requirements to ensure that the front docking section 701 and the rear docking section 703 accurately enter the assembly station.
[0054] Step 4: After each section enters the assembly station, the front docking section 701 first docks with the reference section 702, specifically as follows: Step 4.1: The measuring component 6 moves along one side of the base 1 to the docking area; Step 4.2: The axis measuring device 607 on the measuring component 6 extends into the docking gap between the two sections and checks whether the axis alignment of the front docking section 701 and the reference section 702 meets the requirements, so as to avoid damage to components by scratching the inner cavity during docking. If the detection does not meet the requirements, the position of the corresponding section can be finely adjusted left and right by the cylinder on the corresponding support component. If the detection meets the requirements, proceed to the next step. Step 4.3: After the axis measuring device 607 completes the inspection, it exits the docking gap. The visual measuring device 605 on the measuring component 6 extends into the docking gap and measures the position angle deviation of the positioning pins and positioning grooves at the ends of the two adjacent segments. Then, according to the inspection results, the active support wheel 2081 on the active support component 2 of the reference segment can cooperate to drive the reference segment 701 to rotate around its own axis for adjustment. The front active wheel 405 on the front docking segment support component 4 can cooperate to drive the front docking segment 701 to rotate around its own axis for adjustment until the positioning pins and positioning grooves at the ends of the two adjacent segments are aligned. Step 4.4: The front docking section support assembly 4 drives the front docking section 701 to move towards the reference section 702 for docking. During the docking process, if... Figure 5 As shown, the first docking force sensor 2041 in the active support component 2 of the reference section can detect the docking force of adjacent sections in real time, while the seam measuring device 608 on the measuring component 6 extends to a set position and detects the docking gap between adjacent sections in real time to determine the docking position.
[0055] Step 5: After the front docking segment 701 and the reference segment 702 complete docking, the rear docking segment 703 begins docking with the reference segment 702. The docking process is the same as in Step 4, where... Figure 7 As shown, during the docking process, the second docking force sensor 3041 on the reference section driven support assembly 3 is used to detect the docking force of adjacent sections in real time.
