Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of nut assembly technology, and in particular to a method and system for controlling the tightening of round nuts, electronic equipment, and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] Round nuts are widely used parts in the assembly of mechanical equipment. Currently, in the fields of heavy machinery, wind power equipment, and aerospace, the assembly of round nuts in deep-hole and narrow-cavity applications faces the following technical challenges: Torque limitation: Traditional hydraulic wrenches or pneumatic tools have insufficient torque range (usually below 3000 N), making it difficult to meet ultra-high torque requirements, and manual operation is prone to errors.

[0003] Difficulty in operating deep and narrow openings: When the round nut is located inside a deep or narrow cavity, conventional tools cannot accurately position it and there is a lack of visual feedback on the working condition.

[0004] Low control precision: Existing equipment mostly relies on preset torque values ​​and cannot dynamically fit the actual torque curve, resulting in the risk of over-tightening or under-tightening.

[0005] Lack of data traceability: The lack of real-time monitoring data records for the tightening process makes it difficult to meet the process verification requirements of high-precision assembly. Summary of the Invention

The solution of this application can achieve precise control of the tightening process of round nuts and meet the requirements of high-precision assembly.

[0007] This invention provides a method for controlling the tightening of a round nut, comprising: Obtain the real-time torque and preload during the tightening process of the round nut; Based on the real-time torque value and the real-time preload, the real-time torque coefficient is determined; Based on the real-time torque value and the preset standard torque value, the target torque value is determined; The target preload is determined based on the target torque value and the real-time torque coefficient.
