DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] In order to make those skilled in the art better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without any creative effort also belong to the protection scope of the present application.
[0020] The embodiments of the present application provide a multi-channel thrust test bench for an attitude control engine and a multi-channel thrust calibration method, which can solve the technical problem that a traditional single-channel test bench can only test the thrust of a pitch, yaw or roll channel, and if the performance data of three channels are needed, the test needs to be performed on different single-channel test benches respectively, and the engine needs to be disassembled and assembled multiple times, which not only prolongs the test period, but also may introduce additional deviation due to installation errors.
[0021] Firstly, such as Figure 1 As shown in the embodiment of this application, a multi-channel thrust test bench for attitude control engines is provided, comprising: a moving frame 4, on which an engine calibration simulation component 5 is mounted. The engine calibration simulation component 5 is divided into a first quadrant region 51, a second quadrant region 52, a third quadrant region 53, and a fourth quadrant region 54 via a cross-shaped calibration plate. Each of the first quadrant region 51, the second quadrant region 52, the third quadrant region 53, and the fourth quadrant region 54 is provided with two calibration loading points 6. The eight calibration loading points 6 are located on the same horizontal plane, and the vertical distance from each calibration loading point 6 to the center of the cross-shaped calibration plate is equal. A test bench 1 is provided, on which eight pressure sensors 3 are installed between the test bench 1 and the moving frame 4. The eight pressure sensors 3 correspond one-to-one with the eight calibration loading points 6, and the force measurement direction of the pressure sensors 3 is consistent with the loading direction of the corresponding calibration loading point 6.
[0022] In this embodiment, the attitude control engine multi-channel thrust test bench is equipped with an engine calibration simulation component 5 via a moving frame 4. The engine calibration simulation component 5 is divided into four quadrant regions by a cross calibration plate, and each region has two calibration loading points 6. The eight calibration loading points 6 are located on the same horizontal plane and are equidistant from the center. The eight pressure sensors 3 between the test bench 1 and the moving frame 4 correspond one-to-one with the eight calibration loading points 6, and the force measurement direction is consistent with the loading direction. The above structure allows the test bench to apply force at different calibration loading points 6 and use the corresponding pressure sensors 3 to simultaneously or separately collect force signals from the pitch, yaw, and roll channels. Multi-channel thrust testing can be completed without disassembling and assembling the engine between different single-channel test benches, reducing the number of disassembly and assembly operations, shortening the test cycle, and avoiding additional deviations caused by multiple installations, thereby improving test efficiency and accuracy.
[0023] In conjunction with the first aspect, in one implementation, such as Figure 1 As shown, the attitude control engine multi-channel thrust test bench also includes eight limit protection rods 7, which are installed between the test bench 1 and the moving frame 4. The eight limit protection rods 7 correspond one-to-one with the eight pressure sensors 3, and the length direction of the limit protection rods 7 is consistent with the force measurement direction of the corresponding pressure sensor 3.
[0024] In this embodiment, eight limit protection rods 7 are installed between the test bed 1 and the movable frame 4 and correspond to the eight pressure sensors 3 one by one. The length direction of the limit protection rod 7 is consistent with the force measuring direction of the corresponding pressure sensor 3. When the pressure sensor 3 bears a load exceeding the rated range, the limit protection rod 7 can limit the excessive displacement of the movable frame 4 through the rigid support in the length direction, thereby avoiding damage to the pressure sensor 3 due to overload. At the same time, the corresponding arrangement and direction consistency of the limit protection rod 7 and the pressure sensor 3 ensure that the sensors are provided with targeted protection without interfering with the normal force measuring direction of the pressure sensor 3, thereby ensuring the structural safety of the test bed during calibration and testing, and further maintaining the stability and reliability of the multi-channel thrust test.

In combination with the calibration of the pitch channel, the multi-channel collaborative calibration is realized, and the integrity and accuracy of the multi-channel thrust test are improved.
[0034] In combination with the second aspect, in an implementation manner, as shown in Figure 6 the multi-channel thrust calibration method further includes S5, and S5 includes the following steps: S5-1: applying a standard forward roll force FS5 based on the calibration loading points 6 of the second quadrant region 52 towards the third quadrant region 53 and the calibration loading points 6 of the fourth quadrant region 54 towards the first quadrant region 51; S5-2: recording the values of the eight pressure sensors 3, calculating the FS forward roll force, and obtaining the forward roll direction deviation coefficient.
[0035] In this embodiment, by applying a standard forward roll force FS5 based on the calibration loading points 6 of the second quadrant region 52 towards the third quadrant region 53 and the calibration loading points 6 of the fourth quadrant region 54 towards the first quadrant region 51, recording the values of the eight pressure sensors 3, calculating the FS forward roll force, and obtaining the forward roll direction deviation coefficient, the method relies on the one-to-one correspondence between the eight calibration loading points 6 of the test bench and the pressure sensors 3 to complete the forward roll channel calibration on the same test bench, without the need to change the test bench or disassemble the engine, reducing the deviation caused by multiple installations, calculating the forward roll direction deviation coefficient through the values of the eight pressure sensors 3, providing a calibration basis for the forward roll channel thrust test, and realizing multi-channel collaborative calibration in combination with the calibration of the pitch and yaw channels, improving the comprehensiveness and accuracy of multi-channel thrust test.

[0038] In combination with the second aspect, in an embodiment, before S1, the method further comprises the following steps: S0: leveling the movable rack 4.
[0039] In this embodiment, the leveling of the movable rack 4 is performed before S1, which ensures that the engine calibration simulator 5 is in a horizontal state, so that the plane on which the eight calibration load points 6 are located remains horizontal and the vertical distance from each calibration load point 6 to the center of the cross calibration plate is consistent and is not affected by the inclination, thereby ensuring that the horizontal component of the force applied to each calibration load point 6 is accurately transmitted to the corresponding pressure sensor 3, avoiding additional angular error caused by the inclination of the movable rack 4, providing a reference level condition for the subsequent application of the standard forward pitch force FS1, sensor value recording and deviation coefficient calculation, and improving the initial accuracy of the calibration process and the reliability of the deviation coefficient of each channel.

[0041] In this embodiment, applying a pre-tightening force to the pressure sensors 3 can eliminate the installation gap of the sensors, ensuring that the sensors can respond sensitively in the initial stage of force, and zeroing the sensors after leveling the movable rack 4 makes the measurement value when the force is applied later based on the pre-tightening state, avoiding zero drift error caused by the initial installation state difference or the inclination of the movable rack, ensuring that the value collected by the pressure sensor 3 after the standard forward pitch force FS1 is applied only reflects the change of the actual load, providing an accurate initial reference for the calculation of the deviation coefficient of each channel, and improving the accuracy and consistency of the calibration result.
[0042] In combination with the second aspect, in an embodiment, S1, S2, S3, S4, S5 and S6 are not in a sequential step relationship.
[0043] In summary, the multi-channel thrust test bench is calibrated before the attitude control engine test. During the test, the pressure data of the eight pressure sensors 3 is collected, and the distribution of the eight pressure sensors 3 in Figure 1 is shown in Figures 2 to 7 , and the collected values of the 1#, 2#, 3#, 4#, 5#, 6#, 7# and 8# sensors are Fb1, Fb2, Fb3, Fb4, Fb5, Fb6, Fb7 and Fb8, respectively.
[0044] First, a pre-tightening force is applied to each group of pressure sensors, and the movable rack 4 of the multi-channel thrust test bench is leveled, and after leveling the movable rack 4 of the test bench 1, the measurement and control system is used to zero the pressure sensors 3.
[0045] Secondly, such as Figure 2 As shown, a standard positive pitch force FS1 is gradually applied to two calibration loading points 6 (the calibration loading point 6 from the first quadrant region 51 to the fourth quadrant region 54 and the calibration loading point 6 from the second quadrant region 52 to the third quadrant region 53) of the crosshair calibration plate of the engine calibration simulator 5. The standard positive pitch force FS1 applies equal force values to the two calibration loading points 6, and the forces are applied in the same direction and parallel. The values of sensors 5#, 6#, 7#, and 8# are recorded at this time. FS positive pitch = Fb5 - Fb6 + Fb7 - Fb8. The positive pitch direction deviation coefficient at this time is FS1 / FS positive pitch. Figure 3 As shown, a standard negative pitch force FS2 is applied to two calibration loading points 6 of the engine calibration simulation component 5 (the calibration loading point 6 in the fourth quadrant region 54 toward the first quadrant region 51 and the calibration loading point 6 in the third quadrant region 53 toward the second quadrant region 52). The standard negative pitch force FS2 applies equal force values to the two calibration loading points 6, and the forces are applied in the same direction and parallel. FS negative pitch = Fb5 - Fb6 + Fb7 - Fb8. At this time, the negative pitch direction deviation coefficient is FS2 / FS negative pitch. Similarly, such as Figure 4 As shown, a standard positive yaw force FS3 is applied to two calibration loading points 6 of the engine calibration simulator 5 (calibration loading point 6 from the first quadrant region 51 toward the second quadrant region 52 and calibration loading point 6 from the fourth quadrant region 54 toward the third quadrant region 53). The standard positive yaw force FS3 applies equal force values to the two calibration loading points 6, and the forces are applied in the same direction and parallel. The values of sensors 1#, 2#, 3#, and 4# are recorded at this time. FS positive yaw = Fb1 - Fb2 + Fb3 - Fb4. The positive yaw direction deviation coefficient at this time is FS3 / FS positive yaw. Figure 5 As shown, a standard negative yaw force FS4 is applied to two calibration loading points 6 of the engine calibration simulation component 5 (calibration loading point 6 from the second quadrant region 52 toward the first quadrant region 51 and calibration loading point 6 from the third quadrant region 53 toward the fourth quadrant region 54). The standard negative yaw force FS4 applies equal force values to the two calibration loading points 6, and the forces are applied in the same direction and parallel. The values of sensors 1#, 2#, 3#, and 4# are recorded at this time. FS negative yaw = Fb1 - Fb2 + Fb3 - Fb4. At this time, the negative yaw direction deviation coefficient is FS4 / FS negative yaw. Similarly, such as Figure 6As shown, for the rolling direction, two calibration load points 6 of the engine calibration simulation 5 (the calibration load points 6 of the second quadrant area 52 towards the third quadrant area 53 and the calibration load points 6 of the fourth quadrant area 54 towards the first quadrant area 51) are applied with a standard positive rolling force FS5, wherein the standard positive rolling force FS5 applies the same force value to the two calibration load points 6 to achieve positive rolling, the force directions are opposite and parallel to each other, and the 1#, 2#, 3#, 4#, 5#, 6#, 7# and 8# sensor values at this time are recorded, FS positive rolling = (Fb1-Fb2) + (Fb3-Fb4) - (Fb5-Fb6) - (Fb7-Fb8), and the positive rolling direction deviation coefficient at this time is FS5 / FS positive rolling; two calibration load points 6 of the engine calibration simulation 5 (the calibration load points 6 of the first quadrant area 51 towards the fourth quadrant area 54 and the calibration load points 6 of the third quadrant area 53 towards the second quadrant area 52) are applied with a standard negative rolling force FS6, wherein the standard negative rolling force FS6 applies the same force value to the two calibration load points 6 to achieve negative rolling, the force directions are opposite and parallel to each other, and the 1#, 2#, 3#, 4#, 5#, 6#, 7# and 8# sensor values at this time are recorded, FS positive yaw = (Fb1-Fb2) + (Fb3-Fb4) - (Fb5-Fb6) - (Fb7-Fb8), and the negative rolling direction deviation coefficient at this time is FS6 / FS negative rolling; through the calibration process, the calibration error of each channel of the multi-channel test bench is determined.
[0046] After the calibration is completed, the engine calibration simulation 5 is removed and replaced with the actual attitude control engine for testing. During the test, the 1#, 2#, 3#, 4#, 5#, 6#, 7# and 8# sensor values are collected as Fc1, Fc2, Fc3, Fc4, Fc5, Fc6, Fc7 and Fc8. Through the calibration error of each channel and the measured values Fc1, Fc2, Fc3, Fc4, Fc5, Fc6, Fc7 and Fc8, the actual working pitch force, yaw force, rolling force and rolling torque of the attitude control engine are obtained, and the specific thrust of each channel of the attitude control engine is as follows: F positive pitch = (Fc5-Fc6+Fc7-Fc8)*FS1 / FS positive pitch; F negative pitch = (Fc5-Fc6+Fc7-Fc8)*FS2 / FS negative pitch; F positive yaw = (Fc1-Fc2+Fc3-Fc4)*FS3 / FS positive yaw; F negative yaw = (Fc1-Fc2+Fc3-Fc4)*FS4 / FS negative yaw; F positive rolling = [(Fb1-Fb2) + (Fb3-Fb4) - (Fb5-Fb6) - (Fb7-Fb8)]*FS5 / FS positive rolling; F negative roll = [(Fb1 - Fb2) + (Fb3 - Fb4) - (Fb5 - Fb6) - (Fb7 - Fb8)] * FS6 / FS negative roll; M positive roll = test bench roll arm LI / attitude control engine roll arm L2 * F positive roll; M negative roll = test bench roll arm LI / attitude control engine roll arm L2 * F negative roll.
