Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle external excitation test simulation technology, and in particular to an indirect measurement method and related device for the swing angle of the balance elbow of a tracked vehicle. Background Technology
[0002] When simulating external excitation tests on tracked vehicles, using the measured road surface roughness as the system input for vehicle vibration is the most direct method, which can accurately reflect the characteristics of external excitation. However, measuring road surface roughness requires relatively complex measuring devices, which are costly. The filtering effect caused by the structural characteristics of the measuring device itself will reduce the accuracy of the measurement, resulting in low accuracy. Furthermore, road surface roughness needs to pass through the tracks, road wheels, and suspension before it can act on the sprung mass of the vehicle. When the measured road surface roughness is input into the tracks, due to the filtering effect of the tracks, data processing is required before it can be used as an external excitation input to the sprung mass of the vehicle. Alternatively, a more complex theoretical model can be established for vibration analysis before it can be used as an external excitation input to the sprung mass of the vehicle. However, data processing and vibration analysis are costly and complex. Compared with the method of obtaining external excitation by measuring road surface unevenness, the displacement response after road surface unevenness is input to the track can be directly obtained by measuring the swing angle of the balance elbow. This avoids complex and inaccurate road surface unevenness measurement, filtering-based data processing, and vibration analysis based on theoretical models, and can easily provide system input for the simulation of external excitation of vehicle sprung mass.
[0003] However, for tracked vehicles equipped with suspension systems, the space constraints at the balance elbow in the suspension system prevent direct measurement of the balance elbow's swing angle. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a convenient indirect method to measure the balance elbow's swing angle. Summary of the Invention

[0027] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0028] Example 1 The indirect measurement method for the balance elbow swing angle of tracked vehicles provided in this application embodiment can be applied to, for example... Figure 1In the application environment shown, the terminal communicates with the server via a network. A data storage system stores the data the server needs to process. This data storage system can be set up independently, integrated into the server, or placed in the cloud or on another server. The terminal can send an indirect measurement request to be processed to the server. Upon receiving the request, the server obtains the values of the first angle between the piston cylinder axis and the horizontal plane, and the second angle between the vehicle body bottom deck plane and the horizontal plane. Based on the values of the first and second angles, it determines the value of the third angle between the line connecting the connection point and the piston cylinder center point and the line connecting the hinge point and the piston cylinder center point. Based on the first distance from the connection point to the piston cylinder center point, the second distance from the connection point to the hinge point, and the third angle, it calculates the first and second values of the fourth angle between the line connecting the connection point and the hinge point and the line connecting the hinge point and the piston cylinder center point. Based on the third angle and the first and second values of the fourth angle, it calculates the value of the line connecting the connection point and the hinge point and the line connecting the connection point and the piston cylinder center point. The server calculates the first and second values of the fifth included angle between the lines connecting the center points of the piston cylinders; based on the first and second values of the fifth included angle at the current moment and the first and second values of the fifth included angle at the previous moment, it determines the measured difference value of the first and second values of the fifth included angle; it calculates the difference between the value of the third included angle at the current moment and the value of the third included angle at the previous moment, obtaining the difference value of the third included angle; based on the difference value of the third included angle and the first and second values of the fifth included angle, it determines the analytical difference value of the first and second values of the fifth included angle; based on the measured difference value of the first and second values of the fifth included angle and the analytical difference value of the first and second values of the fifth included angle, it determines the value of the fifth included angle; based on the value of the fifth included angle, it determines the swing angle of the balance elbow. The server can feed back this indirect measurement result of the swing angle of the balance elbow in response to the indirect measurement request to the terminal.
[0029] In addition, in some embodiments, the indirect measurement method for the balance elbow swing angle of tracked vehicles can also be implemented by a server or a terminal alone. For example, the terminal can directly process the indirect measurement request to be processed, or the server can obtain the indirect measurement request to be processed from the data storage system and process it.
[0030] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, an indirect method for measuring the swing angle of the balance elbow of a tracked vehicle is provided. This method is executed by a computer device, specifically by a terminal or server alone, or by both a terminal and a server. In this embodiment, the method is applied to... Figure 1 The following steps, S1-S8, are used as an example to illustrate the process of using a server in the example.
[0031] Step S1: Obtain the value of the first included angle between the piston cylinder axis and the horizontal plane and the value of the second included angle between the vehicle body bottom deck plane and the horizontal plane.
[0032] Step S2: Based on the values of the first included angle and the second included angle, determine the value of the third included angle between the line connecting the connection point and the center point of the piston cylinder and the line connecting the hinge point and the center point of the piston cylinder; the connection point is the position where the torsion shaft and the balance elbow are connected, and the hinge point is the position where the piston rod and the balance elbow are hinged.
[0033] Step S3: Based on the first distance from the connection point to the center point of the piston cylinder, the second distance from the connection point to the hinge point, and the value of the third included angle, calculate the first and second values of the fourth included angle between the line connecting the connection point and the hinge point and the line connecting the hinge point and the center point of the piston cylinder.
[0034] Step S4: Based on the value of the third included angle and the first and second values of the fourth included angle, calculate the first and second values of the fifth included angle between the line connecting the connection point and the hinge point and the line connecting the connection point and the center point of the piston cylinder.
[0035] Step S5: Based on the first and second values of the fifth included angle at the current time and the first and second values of the fifth included angle at the previous time, determine the measured difference value of the first value and the measured difference value of the second value of the fifth included angle.
[0036] Step S6: Calculate the difference between the value of the third included angle at the current time and the value of the third included angle at the previous time to obtain the difference value of the third included angle. Based on the difference value of the third included angle and the first and second values of the fifth included angle, determine the analytical difference value of the first value and the analytical difference value of the second value of the fifth included angle.
[0037] Step S7: Determine the value of the fifth angle based on the measured difference value of the first value and the measured difference value of the second value of the fifth angle, as well as the analytical difference value of the first value and the analytical difference value of the second value of the fifth angle.
[0038] Step S8: Determine the swing angle of the balancing elbow based on the value of the fifth included angle.
[0039] By implementing steps S1 to S8 above, this embodiment can indirectly measure the swing angle of the balance elbow in the suspension device of a tracked vehicle. By directly measuring the swing angle of the shock absorber in the suspension device, the swing angle of the balance elbow in the suspension device is obtained using mathematical analysis and velocity analysis. This can then be applied to simulate the external excitation of the sprung mass of the vehicle. Compared with the method of simulating the external excitation of the sprung mass of the vehicle by measuring road surface unevenness and then using a vehicle vibration test bench, the swing angle of the balance elbow can be obtained directly by measuring the swing angle of the shock absorber. It does not require measuring road surface unevenness or passing through the track, thus avoiding the high cost caused by road surface unevenness measurement and the large error caused by the complexity of off-road surfaces. It also avoids data processing based on filtering and vibration analysis based on theoretical models. It can be further applied to the analysis of the vibration of the suspension device of the vehicle power transmission system and the simulation of external excitation, and can more directly understand the interaction mechanism between the characteristics of the suspension device and the characteristics of the vehicle power transmission system.
[0040] The tracked vehicle in this embodiment can be a high-speed tracked vehicle, or other types of tracked vehicles, and the suspension device can be a linkage suspension device.
[0041] This embodiment is used to measure the swing angle of the balance elbow in the suspension system of a tracked vehicle, such as... Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the suspension device includes a torsion shaft 1, a balance elbow 2, a road wheel 3, and a shock absorber. The shock absorber includes a piston rod 4 and a piston cylinder 5. One end of the torsion shaft 1 is mounted on the vehicle body, and the other end of the torsion shaft 1 is connected to one end of the balance elbow 2. The other end of the balance elbow 2 is connected to the road wheel 3. The piston rod 4 extends out of the piston cylinder 5 and is hinged to the balance elbow 2. The piston cylinder 5 is mounted on the vehicle body.
[0042] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the tracked vehicle is a typical off-road vehicle, with one end of the torsion shaft 1 (i.e. Figure 3 The a end of the torsion shaft 1 is fixedly installed on the vehicle body, and the other end of the torsion shaft 1 (i.e., end a) is fixedly installed on the vehicle body. Figure 3 The b end of the balance elbow 2 is supported on the vehicle body by a rolling bearing and extends out of the vehicle body. It is fixedly connected to one end of the balance elbow 2. The other end of the balance elbow 2 is connected to the road wheel 3 via a crank c. The road wheel 3 is supported on the crank c of the balance elbow 2 by a rolling bearing. During the movement of the tracked vehicle, the road wheel 3 moves up and down, causing the balance elbow 2 to swing, which in turn causes the torsion shaft 1 to twist, thus playing a spring buffering role.
[0043] like Figure 4 As shown, end a of the torsion shaft 1 is fixed, while end b undergoes torsional deformation relative to end a, which is equivalent to the balance elbow 2 and the vehicle body forming a fixed hinge point (i.e., connection point). T That is, the balancing elbow 2 can only rotate around the connection point.T As it rotates, the piston cylinder 5 of the shock absorber is fixedly hinged to the vehicle body, forming a fixed hinge point (i.e., the center point of the piston cylinder). A Piston cylinder 5 can only rotate around the center point of the piston cylinder. A When rotated, one end of the piston rod 4 is installed inside the piston cylinder 5, and the other end of the piston rod 4 is hinged to the balance elbow 2, forming a movable hinge point (i.e., the hinge point). J .
[0044] The entire suspension system constitutes a crank-rocker mechanism. During the movement of the tracked vehicle, the road wheel 3 moves up and down under the action of the road surface, and the balance elbow 2 rotates around the connection point. T As the piston rotates, the torsion shaft 1 undergoes torsional deformation, providing a buffering effect. Simultaneously, the piston rod 4 undergoes rigid planar motion, extending and retracting relative to the piston cylinder 5, dissipating vibrational energy and providing vibration damping. The piston cylinder 5 rotates around its center point... A swing.
[0045] During the operation of tracked vehicles, the excitation caused by uneven road surfaces is extremely severe, subjecting them to significant impact and vibration loads. To achieve good cushioning and vibration reduction performance, tracked vehicles widely employ linkage suspension systems (i.e.,... Figure 3 and Figure 4 The suspension device shown allows the tracked vehicle's road wheels 3 to have a larger dynamic stroke, improving the tracked vehicle's cushioning performance against road impacts. However, the larger dynamic stroke also causes greater torsional deformation of the torsion shaft 1, resulting in a larger swing angle (the same as the torsion angle of the torsion shaft 1) of the balance elbow 2, which is rigidly connected to it. Measuring the swing angle of the balance elbow 2 is often difficult due to its large angle variation range and installation space limitations, making sensor placement very challenging and preventing direct measurement of the swing angle.
[0046] The following, combined with Figure 5 and Figure 6 This embodiment provides a detailed description of the indirect measurement method for the swing angle of the balance elbow of a tracked vehicle, which includes the following steps: (a) Measurement of the first included angle and the second included angle This embodiment obtains the value of the first included angle between the piston cylinder axis and the horizontal plane and the value of the second included angle between the vehicle body bottom deck plane and the horizontal plane.
[0047] During the movement of the tracked vehicle, the balance elbow 2 swings violently, and due to the limited installation space at the balance elbow 2, the installation and fixation of the angle sensor are quite difficult. In contrast, the installation space at the shock absorber is larger, making the installation and fixation of the angle sensor much easier. Therefore, in this embodiment, the angle sensor is used to measure the value of the first included angle between the piston cylinder axis and the horizontal plane in the shock absorber. The value of the second angle between the vehicle body bottom deck plane and the horizontal plane. The swing angle of the balancing elbow 2 is obtained through mathematical analysis and velocity analysis.
[0048] Based on this, in this embodiment, a measuring device is installed at the object being measured—the linkage suspension device, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the measuring device includes two angle sensors, two sensor cables 8, and a data acquisition front-end 9. The two angle sensors are designated as the first angle sensor 6 and the second angle sensor 7. The first angle sensor 6 is installed on the piston cylinder 5 of the shock absorber and is used to measure the swing angle of the piston cylinder 5, that is, to measure the value of the first included angle between the piston cylinder axis and the horizontal plane. The first angle sensor 6 is connected to the data acquisition front end 9 via a sensor cable 8, and measures the value of the first included angle between the piston cylinder axis and the horizontal plane. The data is transmitted to the processor via the data acquisition front end 9. The second angle sensor 7 is installed on the vehicle body and parallel to the plane of the vehicle body's bottom deck. It is used to measure the pitch angle of the vehicle body, that is, to measure the value of the second angle between the plane of the vehicle body's bottom deck and the horizontal plane. The second angle sensor 7 is connected to the data acquisition front end 9 via a sensor cable 8, and measures the value of the second included angle between the vehicle body bottom deck plane and the horizontal plane. The data is transmitted to the processor via the data acquisition front-end 9.

T The point where the torsion shaft 1 and the balance elbow 2 connect is the hinge point. J This is the hinge point where piston rod 4 and balance elbow 2 are connected.
[0050] like Figure 5 As shown, the suspension device is a typical crank-rocker mechanism, with the three vertices of the crank-rocker mechanism (i.e., Figure 5 In T , J , A The sides of the triangular structure formed by the mechanism The length of varies with the vibration history. Through mathematical analysis, based on the mechanism triangle of the suspension device, we have: (1); In equation (1), Let be the value of the first included angle between the piston cylinder axis and the horizontal plane; For connection points T and piston cylinder center point A The connection and hinge point J and piston cylinder center point A The value of the third included angle between the lines connecting the points is an interior angle of the mechanism triangle. ; For connection points T and piston cylinder center point A The value of the sixth included angle between the line connecting the two sides and the plane of the vehicle's bottom deck; The value of the second included angle between the vehicle body bottom deck plane and the horizontal plane is taken as follows: positive for upward and negative for downward. To determine the value of the seventh angle between the balancing elbow 2 and the plane of the vehicle's bottom deck; The value of the eighth angle between the balancing elbow 2 and the horizontal plane; For connection points T and hinge point J Connections and connection points T and piston cylinder center point A The value of the fifth included angle between the lines connecting the points is an interior angle of the mechanism triangle. .
[0051] Based on the first formula in equation (1) , sorted out In this embodiment, the connection point is determined based on the values of the first included angle and the second included angle. T and piston cylinder center point A The connection and hinge point J and piston cylinder center point A The value of the third included angle between the lines connecting the two points is determined by the following steps: (1) Based on connection points T Vertical distance to the bottom deck plane of the vehicle body and connection points T To the center point of the piston cylinder A The first distance is used to calculate the connection point. T and piston cylinder center point A The value of the sixth included angle between the line connecting the two sides and the plane of the vehicle's bottom deck.
[0052] In actual structures It is an acute angle, which can be calculated through mathematical analysis by measuring variables: (2); In equation (2), For connection points T and piston cylinder center point A The value of the sixth included angle between the line connecting the two sides and the plane of the vehicle's bottom deck; For connection points T The vertical distance to the plane of the vehicle's bottom deck; For connection points T To the center point of the piston cylinder A The first distance.
[0053] Although the range of the arcsine function is However, due to Since it is an acute angle, the arcsine function can be used directly for calculation.

[0055] The value of the first included angle The value of the second included angle The value of the included angle with the sixth angle Substitute into the first formula in equation (1) The value of the third included angle can then be calculated. .
[0056] (III) Calculation of possible values for the fourth included angle This embodiment is based on connection points. T To the center point of the piston cylinder A First distance, connection point T To the hinge point J The values of the second distance and the third included angle are used to calculate the connection point. T and hinge point J The connection and hinge point J and piston cylinder center point A The first and second values of the fourth included angle between the lines connecting them.
[0057] Through mathematical analysis, the connection point T To the hinge point J The second distance can be obtained using the law of cosines: (3); In equation (3), For connection points T To the hinge point J The second distance; Hinged point J To the center point of the piston cylinder A The third distance; For connection points T To the center point of the piston cylinderA The first distance; For connection points T and piston cylinder center point A The connection and hinge point J and piston cylinder center point A The value of the third included angle between the lines connecting them.

It is not necessary to place the angle sensor directly on the balance elbow 2. The swing angle of the balance elbow 2 is indirectly measured by mathematical analysis and velocity analysis. Furthermore, the method of combining differential calculation and velocity analysis solves the problem of determining multiple values in the calculation.
[0091] This embodiment allows for direct measurement of the swing angle of the shock absorber in the suspension system. By employing mathematical and velocity analysis, the swing angle of the balance elbow 2 in the suspension system can be obtained. This method can be applied to simulate the external excitation of the sprung mass of a vehicle. Compared to methods that use road surface roughness measurement followed by a vehicle vibration test bench to simulate the external excitation of the sprung mass, this method directly measures the swing angle of the balance elbow 2 through the shock absorber's swing angle. It eliminates the need to measure road surface roughness or use tracks, avoiding the high costs associated with road surface roughness measurement and the large errors caused by the complexity of off-road terrain. It also avoids data processing based on filtering and vibration analysis based on theoretical models. Furthermore, it can be applied to the analysis of vibration and external excitation simulation of the suspension system in a vehicle powertrain. This provides a more direct understanding of the interaction mechanism between the characteristics of the suspension system and the characteristics of the vehicle powertrain system. It not only reduces the complexity of system modeling and the difficulty of theoretical analysis but also provides a more accurate and convenient method for simulating the external excitation of the sprung mass of a vehicle.
