Background Technology

[0002] For high-precision thin-walled mechanical parts, their dimensions and geometry are the main factors affecting accuracy, and measurement is an essential means of evaluating dimensions and geometry. When measuring thin-walled workpieces with traditional measuring tools, comparative measurement is required. This involves first zeroing the dial indicator, then measuring the part with the measuring tool and observing the change in the dial indicator's value. Due to manufacturing errors in the dial indicator, workers need to convert the measured value to the actual value during inspection, which can easily lead to calculation errors. Furthermore, transmission-based measuring tools have large system errors, are bulky and heavy, and have low measurement accuracy.

[0003] Therefore, how to provide a fully automatic grating-type length measuring instrument and its measurement method for high-precision detection of the inner and outer diameters of thin-walled parts is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art.

[0010] Furthermore, the external measuring body includes an external measuring probe, a gear, a rack, a second reading head, a second grating ruler, and a second drive motor; the external measuring probe is slidably mounted on one end of the long arm of the main body, with the measuring end facing the workpiece being measured; the rack is fixedly mounted on the external measuring probe, and the gear is rotatably mounted inside the main body; the rack meshes with the gear for transmission; the output end of the second drive motor is connected to the gear through a bevel gear set; the second grating ruler is mounted on one side of the rack, and the second reading head is mounted above the second grating ruler and fixedly mounted inside the main body.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] Please see the appendix Figure 1-4The present invention provides a fully automatic grating-type length measuring instrument for detecting the inner and outer diameters of high-precision thin-walled parts, including a measuring head 1 and a measuring arm 2. The measuring head 1 is installed at the output end of the measuring arm 2, and the measuring arm 2 is set as an automatic robotic arm, which can control the multi-degree-of-freedom movement of the measuring head 1 and cooperate with the turntable to complete the close-range inner and outer diameter measurement of high-precision thin-walled parts.

[0026] The output end of the measuring arm 2 is connected to the measuring head 1 via a rotary disk 3; the output end of the measuring arm 2 is also provided with a drive mechanism for driving the measuring head 1 to rotate, so that the measuring trajectory of the measuring head 1 conforms to the workpiece being measured. The drive mechanism uses existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0027] The measuring head 1 includes a main body 4, an internal measuring body 5, and an external measuring body 6. The main body 4 is configured in a semi-U-shape, with one end of the short arm connected to the internal measuring body 5 and one end of the long arm connected to the external measuring body 6. The measuring arm 2 is connected to the middle of the long arm of the main body 4. The short arm of the main body 4 drives the internal measuring body 5 to extend into the workpiece being measured, for measuring the inner diameter of the workpiece. The long arm of the main body 4 drives the external measuring body 6 to be positioned outside the workpiece being measured, for cooperating with the internal measuring body 5 to measure the sidewall thickness of the workpiece, thereby obtaining the outer diameter of the workpiece.

[0028] The internal measuring body 5 includes a first internal measuring arm 7, a second internal measuring arm 8, two sets of internal measuring probes 9, and an internal measuring unit 10. The upper ends of the first internal measuring arm 7 and the second internal measuring arm 8 are rotatably connected to one end of the short arm of the main body 4, and the lower ends are respectively connected to a set of internal measuring probes 9. The two sets of internal measuring probes 9 are arranged back to back, and their outer ends abut against the inner wall of the workpiece being measured. The internal measuring unit 10 is connected between the first internal measuring arm 7 and the second internal measuring arm 8 and is used to measure the opening distance of the first internal measuring arm 7 and the second internal measuring arm 8, thereby obtaining the inner diameter of the workpiece being measured.

[0029] The bottom ends of the first internal measuring arm 7 and the second internal measuring arm 8 are both rotatably provided with connecting grooves 27. The two sets of connecting grooves 27 are open at one end and are arranged opposite each other. An internal measuring probe 9 is provided at the end of the connecting groove 27 away from the opening. A guide rod 28 is provided through the two sets of connecting grooves 27. A guide slider is fixedly provided at both ends of the guide rod (28). While the first internal measuring arm 7 and the second internal measuring arm 8 drive the internal measuring probe 9 to move, the two sets of guide sliders slide in the two sets of connecting grooves 27 respectively, so that the two sets of internal measuring probes 9 are always on the same horizontal line.

[0030] The internal measuring unit 10 includes a connecting arm 11, a slider 12, a first reading head 13, a first grating ruler 14, a slide rail 15, a lead screw 16, and a first drive motor 17. The first drive motor 17 is fixedly mounted on the second internal measuring arm 8, and its output end is fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw 16. The lead screw 16 is rotatably disposed inside the second internal measuring arm 8. One end of the connecting arm 11 is rotatably connected to the first internal measuring arm 7, and the other end is rotatably connected to the slider 12. The slider 12 is sleeved on the lead screw 16 and threadedly connected to the lead screw 16. The slide rail 15 is fixedly disposed on the inner wall of the second internal measuring arm 8. A groove matching the shape of the slide rail 15 is provided on one side of the slider 12, so that the slider 12 and the slide rail 15 are slidably connected. A groove is provided at the center position of the slide rail 15 facing the slider 12, and the first grating ruler 14 is embedded in the groove. The first reading head 13 is embedded in the inner wall of the groove, corresponding to the first grating ruler 14, and at a certain distance.

[0031] The straightness and rigidity of the guide rail 15 affect the deflection, tilt, and distance of the grating, thus affecting the grating signal. Therefore, the guide rail 15 is made of a special high-rigidity, gapless, and low-resistance material to ensure straightness and thus ensure the stability of the grating signal.

[0032] The first drive motor 17 drives the lead screw 16 to rotate, which in turn drives the slider 12 to move along the slide rail 15, thereby driving the first reading head 13 to move relative to the first grating ruler 14. The opening distance of the first internal measuring arm 7 and the second internal measuring arm 8 can be calculated by the moving distance of the first reading head 13 relative to the first grating ruler 14.

[0033] The external measuring body 6 includes an external measuring probe 18, a gear 19, a rack 20, a second reading head 21, a second grating ruler, and a second drive motor 22. The external measuring probe 18 is slidably mounted on one end of the long arm of the main body 4, with the measuring end facing the workpiece being measured. The rack 20 is fixedly mounted on the external measuring probe 18, and the gear 19 is rotatably mounted inside the main body 4. The rack 20 and the gear 19 mesh and drive each other. The output end of the second drive motor 22 is connected to the gear 19 through a bevel gear set, driving the gear 19 to rotate. The second grating ruler is located on one side of the rack 20, and the second reading head 21 is located above the second grating ruler and is fixedly mounted inside the main body 4.

[0034] The second drive motor 22 drives the gear 19 to rotate, which in turn drives the rack 20 to move, thereby driving the external measuring probe 18 to move. At the same time, it drives the second grating ruler to move relative to the second reading head 21. The moving distance of the external measuring probe 18 is calculated by the moving distance of the second grating ruler.

[0035] The internal measuring probe 9 has the same structure as the external measuring probe 18, both being hollow internally. Each probe contains a sliding cavity and an adjusting cavity, which are connected. A movable column 23, for contacting the workpiece being measured, is slidably disposed within the sliding cavity. An adjusting unit, for adjusting the measuring force, is disposed within the adjusting cavity. The movable column 23 is connected to the adjusting unit, which adjusts the magnitude of the measuring force exerted by the movable column 23 against the workpiece. A ball head is rolled at the top of the movable column 23 where it contacts the workpiece.

[0036] The adjustment unit includes a moving block 24, a first electromagnet 25, and a second electromagnet 26. One end of the moving block 24 is connected to the movable column 23, and the other end is disposed within the adjustment cavity. The first electromagnet 25 is disposed on one side wall of the adjustment cavity, located on one side of the moving block 24, and the second electromagnet 26 is disposed on the other side wall of the adjustment cavity, located on the other side of the moving block 24. The first electromagnet 25 and the second electromagnet 26 are arranged opposite to each other in the moving direction of the moving block 24. This arrangement controls the moving block 24 to approach the first electromagnet 25 or the second electromagnet 26, thereby controlling the movable column 23 to abut against the measuring force of the workpiece being measured. Furthermore, the magnitude of the measuring force can be recorded through the current fluctuations transmitted back by the first electromagnet 25 and the second electromagnet 26. The arrangement of the first electromagnet 25 and the second electromagnet 26 ensures the stability, constancy, and continuous adjustability of the measuring force.

[0037] The present invention also provides a measurement method using the above-mentioned fully automatic grating-type length measuring instrument for high-precision detection of the inner and outer diameters of thin-walled parts, comprising the following steps: When the external measuring probe 18 is in the initial state of the measuring instrument, it abuts against the internal measuring probe 9 on the second internal measuring arm 8; the internal measuring probe 9 on the second internal measuring arm 8 abuts against the back of the internal measuring probe 9 on the first internal measuring arm 7; the measuring arm 2 controls the main body 4 to move and rotate, so that the internal measuring body 5 is inserted into the workpiece being measured.

[0038] First, the internal measuring probe 9 of the second internal measuring arm 8 is placed against the inner wall of the workpiece to be measured. The current fluctuation transmitted back by the first electromagnet 25 is used to monitor whether the internal measuring probe 9 of the second internal measuring arm 8 is against the inner wall of the workpiece to be measured. At the same time as the main body 4 is aligning, the outer measuring probe 18 is driven to move the second grating ruler so that the internal measuring probe 9 and the outer measuring probe 18 are on the same horizontal line, and the wall thickness of the measured point of the workpiece is obtained. Then, the internal measuring unit 10 drives the first internal measuring arm 7 and the second internal measuring arm 8 to open, so that the two sets of internal measuring probes 9 abut against the inner wall of the workpiece to measure the inner diameter of the workpiece, and the outer diameter of the workpiece is obtained by measuring the wall thickness of the workpiece by the outer measuring probe 18.

Similar or identical parts between embodiments can be referred to interchangeably.
