[0002] The main shaft of an aero turbojet engine is a key mechanical component inside the engine, mainly responsible for connecting and supporting various rotating components, while transmitting torque and bearing axial force; The design requirements of the main shaft are extremely high, which needs to ensure the stability and safety at high speed rotation; Its outer surface is usually provided with keyways, which are used to realize the mechanical connection between the main shaft and the impeller or other transmission components, prevent relative sliding and ensure the reliability of power transmission.
[0003] In the quality control process of the main shaft, the circular runout and thickness detection are two important detection contents; The circular runout detection is used to measure the radial deviation of the outer surface of the main shaft during rotation, which can reflect whether the main shaft has deformation such as bending or ovality, to ensure the stability of rotation; The detection is usually completed by high-precision measuring equipment, the main shaft is fixed on the clamp and slowly rotates, and the measuring probe records the radial change of the surface in real time; The thickness detection measures the radial dimension of the key parts of the main shaft, especially the width and depth of the keyway, to ensure the fitting accuracy of the key and the groove and the firmness of the connection; The thickness measurement can use contact tools such as micrometer, or use advanced technologies such as non-contact laser scanning to obtain detailed three-dimensional profile information.
[0004] The Chinese invention patent with patent application number CN202510819648.X discloses an aero turbojet engine main shaft measuring device and its using method, which comprises a mounting frame, two annular plates are symmetrically fixedly connected on the mounting frame, a circular plate is movably connected between the two annular plates, a plurality of measuring assemblies are uniformly distributed on the circular plate, a detection rotating assembly is arranged on the mounting frame, the power output end of the detection rotating assembly is in transmission connection with the circular plate for driving the circular plate to rotate, an activity plate is movably connected on the inner bottom surface of the mounting frame, two main shaft locking assemblies are movably arranged on the top surface of the activity plate, which can ensure that the spherical ball realizes real-time contact with the outer wall of the main shaft under the action of the spring, and the circular plate is driven to rotate by the first motor, the measuring assemblies are moved in a ring shape by the circular plate, at this time, the spherical ball moving on the outer wall of the main shaft can drive the activity rod to move, the activity rod drives the flat plate to move, and the moving distance of the flat plate is detected in real time by the distance sensor, thereby realizing the measurement operation of the main shaft.
[0005] However, this kind of measurement method will be affected by the keyway on the outer surface of the engine main shaft, that is, the keyway as a structure recessed on the outer surface of the main shaft causes the measuring probe to encounter a sudden change in surface height when rotating around the main shaft, and the keyway makes the probe appear a short "jumping" or "disengaging" phenomenon when passing through the keyway, resulting in a sharp peak or abnormal fluctuation in the measurement signal, which is not caused by the true geometric error of the main shaft, but by the interference of the keyway structure, so that the measurement data cannot accurately reflect the true circumferential runout of the main shaft, and the thickness measurement of the main shaft in the axial direction is also not continuous and stable, affecting the accuracy of the main shaft measurement.

[0041] In this way, the second cylinder 702 drives the supporting plate 703 and the ultrasonic thickness measuring probe 8 to move upwards until the ultrasonic thickness measuring probe 8 is in contact with the outer wall of the main shaft through the gap part 303.

[0044] In step S101, the staff needs to clean the spindle before placing it on the double-roller synchronous rolling structure 3. Use non-woven fabric and high-purity cleaning agent to remove all oil stains, dust and metal chips from the outer surface and inner hole of the spindle. Then place the spindle on the double-roller synchronous rolling structure 3, and then check the ultrasonic thickness gauge probe 8, calibrate the zero position, and evenly apply a layer of sufficient special coupling agent on the top of the probe.
[0045] In step S101, the radial double-roller anti-jumping mechanism 4 applies appropriate pressure from the upper two sides of the spindle, together with the double-roller synchronous rolling structure 3 below to form a stable constraint platform, effectively suppressing the radial jumping or vibration of the spindle during rotation, while ensuring that the central axis of the spindle remains parallel to the scanning track of the subsequent ultrasonic thickness gauge probe 8.

[0048] The working principle of the double-belt linear traction structure 9 in step S102 is that the worm gear reducer 501 drives the front shaft 901 to rotate through the chain wheel transmission structure two 503, at this time the belt linear module 903 between the front shaft 901 and the rear shaft 902 will drive the pneumatic lifter 7 and the ultrasonic thickness gauge probe 8 to move along the spindle axis direction, until the ultrasonic thickness gauge probe 8 detects a complete spindle, thereby ensuring the continuity of the thickness measurement process, avoiding the ultrasonic thickness gauge probe 8 from shaking or deviating during the movement process, and ensuring the accuracy of the measurement data.

10. A method for measuring the main shaft of an aero-turbojet engine, based on the aero-turbojet engine main shaft measuring device according to any one of claims 1-9, characterized in that: Includes the following steps: S101: According to the model and specifications of the spindle, the staff inputs parameters through the control panel (10) and adjusts the position of the radial double roller anti-jump mechanism (4). The radial double roller anti-jump mechanism (4) applies appropriate pressure from both sides above the spindle, and together with the lower double roller synchronous rolling structure (3), it forms a stable constraint platform. The pneumatic lifter (7) carries the ultrasonic thickness probe (8) to slowly rise until the probe contacts the lower surface of the outer wall of the spindle. S102: The control panel (10) sends a working command to the rotary driver (5), which drives the double roller synchronous rolling structure (3) to work, causing the main shaft to start rotating at a constant speed and smoothly around its own axis. At the same time, the double belt linear traction structure (9) drives the entire pneumatic lifter (7) and the ultrasonic thickness probe (8) to move slowly and continuously in a straight line along a direction parallel to the axis of the main shaft. At this time, the motion trajectory of the ultrasonic thickness probe (8) relative to the surface of the main shaft becomes a regular spiral line. S103: During the scanning process, the ultrasonic thickness probe (8) continuously emits ultrasonic pulses and receives echoes. The instrument connected to the ultrasonic thickness probe (8) calculates and records the thickness data of each measurement point in real time. This data corresponds one-to-one with the axial position and circumferential angle coordinates of the probe and is stored synchronously in the computer system. S104: After the ultrasonic thickness probe (8) completes the length scan of the entire spindle, the operator can adjust the initial contact position between the spindle and the ultrasonic thickness probe (8) and perform another measurement operation, or stop the equipment, reset all components, and use lifting equipment to lift the completed spindle away from the work station.
