[0035] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the application, rather than all the embodiments of the application. Based on the embodiments in the application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the protection scope of the application.
[0036] Please refer to Figs. 1-3 In the embodiments of the application, a dynamic measurement method of a mechanical sealing end face gap comprises the following steps. S1: periodic grating structures are arranged on the non-sealing surfaces of the dynamic ring and the static ring of the mechanical seal. The grating pattern is not limited in specific shape, and can be a quadrature grid, a one-dimensional grating line, a dot matrix pattern, a digital / letter array, a periodic pattern with a ±45° or other arbitrary angle. In the embodiment, the quadrature grid is selected as the grating pattern, and the grating pitch is set to 2 mm.
[0037] The preparation mode of the grating is not limited by the process means, and can adopt laser marking, nano-imprinting, plasma etching, mask photolithography, maskless photolithography, grating pasting and the like. The grating period can be flexibly adjusted according to the measurement accuracy requirement, and the smaller the period is, the higher the measurement resolution is. When setting, the grating should be closely attached to the surface of the measured part, and the quality thereof should be much smaller than that of the locking object, so as to avoid introducing additional inertia or eccentricity. In the embodiment, the laser marking technology or the high-adhesion grating transfer pasting scheme is adopted. The ultraviolet laser marking machine is used to directly etch the periodic grating on the surface of the sealing ring, so as to ensure that the line is clear and uniform. When the grating transfer pasting is used, the high-temperature-resistant adhesive film grating is selected, and is attached to the surface through the pressing and pasting mode, so as to avoid falling off in rotation. After the grating is prepared, the pattern integrity and contrast thereof need to be checked, so as to ensure the image collection quality in the subsequent step.
[0038] The mechanical seal can be replaced by any one of a dry gas seal, a liquid film seal, a gas film seal, a magnetic seal, a floating ring seal, a spiral seal, a labyrinth seal, a combined seal, an intelligent seal, a self-repairing seal, a nano seal, and a bionic seal; and the mechanical seal can be applied to a pump, a compressor, a reaction kettle, a centrifuge, a turbine, an engine, a transmission, a speed reducer, a mixer, a stirrer, a fan, a vacuum device, a hydraulic device, a pneumatic device, and related machinery.
[0039] S2: collecting a dynamic image sequence of the periodic grating structure during operation of the mechanical seal; First, a detection system is built, and the static ring and the dynamic ring assembled with the grating are installed in a rotating device, the static ring is fixed, and the dynamic ring rotates with the main shaft.
[0040] A high-speed camera with a frame rate not less than 2000 fps is used, and a telecentric lens is equipped to reduce perspective error. The camera is fixed on a vibration-proof platform, and the lens is directed at the grating area of the seal ring to ensure that the grating is always located at the center of the field of view. A uniform LED cold light source is used to obliquely irradiate the grating surface at a certain angle to enhance the image contrast. The high-speed camera can also be replaced by a CCD, a CMOS, a microscope, an endoscope, a fiber imaging system, an infrared imaging system, and an X-ray imaging system.
[0041] After starting the rotating device, the rotating speed of the dynamic ring is set to 100 rpm. During rotation, a grating image under zero load in the initial state is first collected as a reference. The high-speed camera continuously collects dynamic grating images through the observation window, and the collection time covers multiple rotation periods to ensure that the complete motion process is captured. During the collection process, the camera focal length, position, and lighting conditions remain constant to avoid external interference. Under the action of centrifugal force, friction force, and fluid pressure in the working condition, the gap between the dynamic ring and the static ring will change slightly. As a displacement carrier, the periodic stripes of the grating will deform with the change of the gap. The high-speed camera collects real-time motion images of the grating on the surface of the dynamic ring and the static ring during the whole process and transmits them to the data processing and analysis module.
[0042] To ensure measurement stability, the high-speed camera and the light source are fixed through a vibration-proof support, and an external transparent protective cover is provided to isolate the lubricating liquid and dust from affecting the imaging quality of the grating. The grating material is selected to be a composite film that is resistant to high temperature and wear to ensure that the grating stripes are not damaged in a long-term rotating and friction environment.

[0044] S32. Perform orthogonal decomposition on the grating pattern, orthogonally decomposing the gratings in two perpendicular directions to obtain two independent unidirectional gratings. The two perpendicular gratings are decomposed into two independent unidirectional gratings, and each directional grating is used for phase analysis and displacement calculation in its respective direction. When using orthogonal gratings, a two-dimensional Fourier filter or low-pass filter is used to separate the gratings. x and y Single-frequency grating component in the direction.
[0045] One of the unidirectional gratings is parallel to the axes of the moving ring and the stationary ring; The grating phase processing methods are the same in both directions, so only the phase analysis process in one direction will be described. Assume that the extracted... x The grating of the direction is defined as follows: p x , Before the mechanical seal deforms, x The light intensity of the directional grating is : ; After the mechanical seal deforms, x The light intensity of the directional grating is : ; Caused by deformation of mechanical seal x The phase difference corresponding to the change in the directional grating is :

[0047] S33. Downsample the two independent unidirectional gratings after separation; The sampling interval of down-sampling is T , T is the nearest integer of the grating pitch; When down-sampling, starting from the first pixel block on one side of the grating, every T pixel block is sampled to obtain a first sequence of discontinuous pixel blocks with a period of T ; Then starting from the second pixel block, every T pixel block is sampled to obtain a second sequence of discontinuous pixel blocks with a period of T ; The above operation is repeated to obtain T sequences of discontinuous pixel blocks with different gray scales.
[0048] S34: The sequences of discontinuous pixels after down-sampling are processed by an interpolation method to generate a continuous moire fringe image, and phase calculation is performed on the moire fringe image.
[0049] The missing parts of each sequence of discontinuous pixel blocks are made continuous and smooth by intensity difference, and the moire phase is obtained after discrete Fourier transform of the moire sequence.
[0050] The interpolation method is Makima interpolation, and the intensity of the moire fringe image after interpolation is :
[0051] After discrete Fourier transform, the moire phase in the x direction before deformation of the mechanical seal is :
[0052]
[0053] The moire phase in the x direction after deformation of the mechanical seal is :
[0054]
[0055] wherein, represents the intensity of the moire fringe image in the x direction before deformation of the mechanical seal; represents the intensity of the moire fringe image in the x direction after deformation of the mechanical seal; T represents the sampling interval of down-sampling; k This indicates the sequence number of the moiré pattern obtained from downsampling. ; This represents the grating intensity amplitude. p x Indicates the mechanical seal before deformation x grating pitch in the direction; Indicates the deformation of the mechanical seal x grating pitch in the direction; Indicates background intensity.
[0056] The phase difference of the cloud pattern is for:
[0057] The moiré phase difference calculated here refers to x Phase difference of moiré patterns in the direction, y The phase difference of the moiré pattern in the direction is calculated in the same way as above.
[0058] Moiré phase difference and grating fringe phase difference The following relationship exists: ; S4: Based on phase change data, calculate the relative displacement and relative rotation angle between the sealing end faces of the rotating ring and the stationary ring; exist( -n , n Within the threshold range of ), it is enveloped by (-π, π), and after partial derivative correction:

[0060] Phase boundary discontinuities can be eliminated by using a phase unwrapping algorithm.
[0061] S41, with the axial directions of the moving and stationary rings as... x Direction, along the grating x The relative displacement in the direction is ;
[0062] grating and x The deflection angle of the direction is :
[0063] wherein, represents the phase of the one-way grating in the x direction after the mechanical seal is deformed; represents the grating pitch of the one-way grating in the x direction after the mechanical seal is deformed; represents the grating pitch of the one-way grating in the y direction after the mechanical seal is deformed; x represents the coordinate value of the grating in the x direction; y represents the coordinate value of the grating in the y direction.
[0064] Since the angle change amount x is the rotation angle between the main direction grating and the x direction at the initial moment, the angle change amount x :
[0065] S42, the relative displacement of the sealing end face in the y direction and the deflection angle in the y direction are calculated by the calculation step in S41.
[0066] The displacement of the dynamic ring and the static ring is captured during the operation of the mechanical seal, and the gap change amount d and the relative rotation angle change amount are obtained:

[0069] S5: monitoring, early warning and evaluation of the state of the mechanical seal.
[0070] Since the number of images captured by the high-speed camera is large, the displacement value of the specific point can be selected to draw a displacement curve in the order of the captured images, and the change rule is found.
[0071] In the measurement process, gratings can be attached to the static ring and the dynamic ring respectively, and the gratings can be made in different styles to distinguish them, or different marks can be added beside the gratings to distinguish them. According to the above derivation process, for the specific performance of the seal, the displacement of the grating attached to the static ring can be defined as u x0 The grating attached to the dynamic ring maintains horizontal with the grating of the static ring. In order to more easily show the displacement change and the shaft center offset, two gratings can be attached to the dynamic ring along the horizontal direction, the displacement of the grating close to the static ring is defined as u x1 The displacement of the grating far from the static ring is defined as u x2 For the gap change, the difference between the displacements of the dynamic ring and the static ring caused by factors such as vibration can reflect the change of the gap between the dynamic ring and the static ring. The process images collected by the high-speed camera are analyzed according to the above process, and each image has its displacement field distribution relative to the first image. The displacement of the grating area of the dynamic ring and the static ring represents the displacement of the dynamic ring and the static ring in the running process, and the displacement difference between the dynamic ring and the static ring can represent the gap change value. x For the gap change in the direction, it can be observed by - It can also be observed by -u x0 - The relationship between - The relationship between the two values can be used as further verification of the change of the shaft center angle. If the shaft center is offset, the two values are not synchronous, and the existence of the v-shaped eccentricity can be judged accordingly.
