DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model clearer, the technical solution of the utility model will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other implementation methods obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work belong to the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0040] Embodiment 1:

[0041] In this embodiment, in order to solve the technical problem in the prior art that the torque sensor needs to cut off or modify the original structure of the shaft to be tested when testing the torque, the utility model provides a wireless clamp-type strain-type torque sensor.

[0042] The wireless clamp-ring strain-type torque sensor provided by the utility model has the advantages of no need to destroy the structure to be tested, easy installation and maintenance, wide application range, etc., and solves the problem that the original structure of the shaft to be tested needs to be cut off or modified when testing torque with a traditional torque sensor.

[0043] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, specifically, the wireless clamp type strain type torque sensor includes:

[0044] The first elastic end ring 1 is a circular ring structure and is used to be passed through the outside of one end of the component to be measured;

[0045] The second elastic end ring 2 is an arc-shaped structure, arranged parallel to the first elastic end ring 1 and spaced apart, and is used to be passed through the outer side of the other end of the component to be measured;

[0046] Two elastic connecting columns 3 are symmetrically arranged, and both ends are respectively connected to the first elastic end ring 1 and the second elastic end ring 2 to form a torque sensor with an I-shaped front view projection;

[0047] The strain gauge group is symmetrically installed on two elastic connecting columns.

[0048] The existing torque sensor can only cut off the test shaft and connect the cut shaft to the two ends of the sensor through a coupling. The torque sensor of the utility model has a different principle. The torque sensor converts the test shaft torque into the strain of the sensor strain gauge, converts the strain into an electrical signal, and converts it into a torque through a signal processing system.

[0049] Embodiment 2:

[0050] The difference between this embodiment 2 and embodiment 1 is that Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the connection position of the elastomeric connecting column 3 is specifically defined. In this embodiment, the elastomeric connecting column 3 is connected to the inner ring edges of the first elastomeric end ring 1 and the second elastomeric end ring 2.

[0051] Through this structural setting, the elastic body connecting column 3 is closely attached to the inner cavity of the wireless clamp-type strain-type torque sensor, so as to be as close as possible to the component to be measured, thereby reducing the transmission error.

[0052] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the strain gauge group includes eight strain gauges 4, four of which are grouped into two groups in total. One group of strain gauges 4 is arranged on each elastic connecting column 3, that is, four strain gauges 4 are arranged on each elastic connecting column 3.

[0053] like Figure 4 As shown, the cross section of the elastic column 3 in the present invention is a rectangle, and the strain gauge 4 can be attached to a side surface of the elastic column 3 with a larger specification.

[0054] In order to better receive the transmitted torque, in the present embodiment, each group of strain gauges 4 is divided into two pairs, and each pair of strain gauges 4 includes two strain gauges 4, wherein one pair of strain gauges 4 is relatively arranged at the top position of the elastomer connecting column 3. It should be noted here that the top position of the elastomer connecting column 3 refers to the connection between the elastomer connecting column 3 and the first elastomer end ring 1, and the other pair of strain gauges 4 is relatively arranged at the bottom position of the elastomer connecting column 3. It should be noted here that the bottom position of the elastomer connecting column 3 refers to the connection position between the elastomer connecting column 3 and the second elastomer end ring 2.

[0055] In order to ensure a better measurement effect, in this embodiment, the two pairs of strain gauges 4 are installed at the same position on the side of the elastic connecting column 3.

[0056] It should be noted here that Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown in the figure, it is a full-bridge bridge assembly diagram of two different strain gauges, where R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7, and R8 are the resistances of each strain gauge. The specific strain gauges to be bridged need to be determined based on the designed sensor structure deformation. The full-bridge strain measurement circuit has the characteristics of high test accuracy.

[0057] Embodiment 3:

[0058] The difference between the present embodiment 3 and the present embodiment 2 is that, in order to facilitate the wiring of the wireless clip-on type strain-type torque sensor, in the present embodiment, a plurality of through-holes 5 are symmetrically arranged on the first elastic body end ring 1. It should be noted that a plurality of through-holes 5 can also be symmetrically arranged on the second elastic body end ring 2, and as to which end the through-holes 5 are arranged, it depends on the positions of the power supply module 13 and the wireless module 14 of the wireless clip-on type strain-type torque sensor.

[0059] In this embodiment, since the power module and the wireless module are both mounted on the handle body located on one side of the first elastic end ring 1 , a wire hole 5 is provided on the first elastic end ring 1 for the cable to pass through.

[0060] In this embodiment, there are two wire holes 5 , which are arranged on the first elastic end ring 1 at an angle of 180°.

[0061] For the convenience of installation, in this embodiment, a plurality of fixed installation holes 6 are symmetrically arranged on the second elastic end ring 2, and the fixed installation holes 6 are used to install the wireless clamp type strain type torque sensor on the component to be measured.

[0062] It should be noted here that if the wire-passing hole 5 is provided on the second elastomer end ring 2 , then the fixed installation hole 6 can be provided on the first elastomer end ring 1 .

[0063] Embodiment 4:

[0064] The difference between this embodiment 4 and embodiment 3 is that Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in order to achieve a more stable installation and a good clamping effect, a U-shaped groove 7 is provided on the first elastomer end ring 1 and / or the second elastomer end ring 2. Specifically, the U-shaped groove 7 extends vertically downward from the surface of the first elastomer end ring 1 or the second elastomer end ring 2, and the U-shaped groove 7 is penetrated along the thickness direction of the end ring. By providing the U-shaped groove 7, a notch is formed on the first elastomer end ring 1, and the inner diameter of the end ring can be adjusted by squeezing the notch, so that the wireless clamping ring strain type torque sensor can be clamped on the component to be measured; specifically, a through hole 8 and a locking hole 9 are respectively provided on both sides of the U-shaped groove 7, and also includes a locking member which is sequentially penetrated into the through hole and the locking hole to adjust the opening degree of the U-shaped groove.

[0065] When in use, the wireless clamping ring strain type torque sensor is integrally mounted on the outside of the component to be measured, and torque detection can be performed in a non-destructive state. Since the first elastomer end ring 1 and the inner ring of the second elastomer end ring 2 are used for mounting, a U-shaped slot 7 is provided, and a locking member such as a locking screw is sequentially passed through the through hole and then screwed into the locking hole 9 to adjust the opening of the U-shaped slot 7, thereby adjusting the inner diameter of the torque sensor sleeve, thereby enhancing the adjustment strength between the torque sensor and the tool handle body, and the intermediate test shaft can be locked by tightening the locking screw, thereby expanding the scope of use and reducing the requirements for the dimensional tolerance of the test shaft.

[0066] The wireless clamp-ring strain-type torque sensor provided by the utility model has the characteristics of low cost, simple operation, sufficient sensitivity, sufficient rigidity, high natural frequency, simple structure, easy processing and easy maintenance.

[0067] Embodiment 5:

[0068] In this embodiment 5, Figure 6-Figure 8 As shown, a tool handle for a machine tool is provided, comprising a tool handle body 11 and a wireless clamping ring type strain type torque sensor 12. The wireless clamping ring type strain type torque sensor 12 is sleeved on the tool handle body 11 in an interference fit manner.

[0069] The utility model combines a clamp ring type wireless torque sensor with a tool holder to design a tool holder that can wirelessly and real-time online test cutting torque, thereby realizing real-time monitoring of machine tool machining conditions, real-time monitoring of electric spindle output torque, fault diagnosis and tool wear monitoring, etc., which is of great significance to spindle development and matching, machine tool processing, and tool research and development.

[0070] Furthermore, in order to ensure the automatic measurement of the sensor, it also includes a power supply module 13, a wireless module 14, a protective housing 15 and a fixing member 16, wherein:

[0071] The power supply module 13 and the wireless module 14 are both mounted on the handle body 11 and are electrically connected to the wireless clamp-type strain-type torque sensor 12;

[0072] Furthermore, a power module installation position and a wireless module installation position that are recessed inward are respectively provided on opposite sides of the handle body 11. In order to facilitate wiring, a handle wire hole 17 is also provided on the handle body 11 below the power module installation position and the wireless module installation position, and the handle wire hole 17 is arranged opposite to the two wire holes 5 on the first elastic body end ring 1, so as to facilitate the extension and arrangement of the cables;

[0073] The protective shell 15 is sleeved on the outside of the wireless clip-ring type strain type torque sensor 12 to protect the wireless clip-ring type strain type torque sensor 12; in this embodiment, the protective shell 15 is a thin-walled cylindrical structure, and the handle body 11 has a raised ring at the top of the wireless clip-ring type strain type torque sensor 12, and the outer diameter of the raised ring is slightly larger than the outer diameters of the first elastic end ring 1 and the second elastic end ring 2 of the wireless clip-ring type strain type torque sensor 12; the top of the protective shell 15 abuts against the bottom of the raised ring, and the outer wall of the protective shell 15 is flush with the outer edge of the raised ring to improve the smooth and beautiful appearance of the handle. The bottom of the protective shell 15 has a sealed end, and a hole is opened at the sealed end for the handle body 11 to pass through;

[0074] The fixing member 16 can be a fixing bolt, and four connecting holes are opened on the sealed end of the protective shell 15. The four connecting holes are arranged opposite to the four fixed mounting holes 6 on the second elastomer end ring 2. During assembly, the fixing member 16 is screwed into the connecting holes and the fixed mounting holes 6 in turn to realize the connection between the protective shell 15 and the wireless clamp-type strain-type torque sensor 12.

[0075] The utility model combines a clamp ring type wireless torque sensor to form a tool holder capable of wireless real-time online testing of cutting torque, thereby realizing real-time monitoring of machine tool machining conditions, real-time monitoring of electric spindle output torque, fault diagnosis and tool wear monitoring, etc. Specific implementation method:

[0077] In order to successfully test the torque of the shaft without destroying its original structure, a method such as Figure 1 The clamp-ring torque sensor of the structure shown has eight strain gauges 4, four of which are grouped together, and the two groups of strain gauges 4 are respectively located at the same position on both sides of the elastic body connecting column 3; the wire holes 5 are wire holes for power supply and output signal; the fixed installation holes 6 are fixed threaded holes for fixing the sensor protection housing 15 to prevent various pollutions and protect the circuit.

[0078] The resistance strain gauge is pasted on the specified position of the surface of the elastic column 3. The elastic column 3 adopts a rectangular structure, which has the characteristics of simple structure, convenient processing, high sensitivity, etc. After analysis and simulation, the structure ε=ε1=-ε2=-ε3=ε4=ε7=-ε5=-ε8=ε7. Since the elastic column 3 is strained by force, the resistance of the resistance strain gauge changes. Through the measurement circuit (the measurement circuit can be either a half-bridge strain measurement circuit or a full-bridge strain test circuit), the strain is converted into an electrical signal (voltage, current, frequency, etc.).

[0079] In the actual test process, the bridge end often outputs non-zero under static load conditions due to factors such as the manufacturing process, temperature coefficient, installation error, and cable resistance of the strain gauge, which affects the test accuracy of the test system. In order to improve the sensitivity of the sensor and improve the test accuracy, a full-bridge strain measurement circuit can be used, such as Fig. 9 and Fig.10 However, when the test accuracy is not high, considering the hardware cost and the complexity of cable layout, a half-bridge strain measurement circuit can be used to complete the torque test task. In this embodiment, the torque sensor is applied to the handle body 11 (the structure is a rotating shaft), and the sensor rotates with the shaft, so only the wireless data transmission mode can be used.

[0080] Complete torque sensor signal processing test system, such as Fig.11 As shown. It includes sensor front-end module, torque signal conditioning module, bridge leveling module, data acquisition control module and wireless module. The strain gauge is arranged at the selected test point to form the sensor front-end module, completing the torque-strain signal conversion; the torque signal conditioning module includes a two-stage signal amplification circuit with adjustable gain, a filter circuit and a zero-point bias adjustment circuit, etc., making the signal easier to collect and process; the bridge leveling module includes a digital potentiometer, a digital-to-analog converter and corresponding circuits; the data acquisition control module and the wireless module are responsible for the acquisition, calculation, wireless transmission and reception of the conditioned torque signal and the system logic timing control, and the test data is displayed and recorded on the host computer through the wireless module.

[0081] In order to realize real-time monitoring of machine tool machining conditions, real-time monitoring of electric spindle output torque, fault diagnosis and tool wear monitoring, the clamp ring type wireless torque sensor is combined with the tool handle. Its appearance is shown in the figure Figure 6 As shown, the explosion diagram is as follows Figure 8 As shown, the cross-sectional view is Figure 7As shown. It includes a torque sensor 11, a power supply module 13, a handle body 11, a wireless module 14, a protective shell 15, a fixing part 16 (fixing bolt), a handle wire hole 17, a power supply module installation position 18, and a wireless module installation position 19. The wireless clamp type strain type torque sensor 12 and the handle body 11 can be connected by interference fit, which is convenient for transmitting torque to the wireless clamp type strain type torque sensor 12. The power supply module 13 supplies power to the entire system, and the wireless module 14 wirelessly transmits and receives signals. The two wire holes 5 on the wireless clamp type strain type torque sensor 12 and the two handle wire holes 17 on the handle body 11 are aligned with each other to facilitate the connection of various power supply cables with the power supply module 13 and the connection of signal transmission cables with the wireless module 14. The protective shell 15 of the sensor is used to seal the exposed part of the entire wireless clamp type strain type torque sensor 12 to protect the circuit of the wireless clamp type strain type torque sensor 12 and prevent various pollution. Use 4 fixing bolts and 4 fixing holes 6 on the wireless clamp type strain type torque sensor 12 to fix the protective housing 15 and the wireless clamp type strain type torque sensor 12 together to prevent it from falling off. Since the environment in which the tool handle is used is relatively complex and full of oil, gas, and liquid, protective measures are essential. At the same time, due to the high speed, the overall dynamic balance requirements are high, and the dynamic balance needs to be carefully adjusted to prevent excessive vibration during the test and affect the test results.

[0082] It should be noted here that the following method can also be used to achieve the connection between the wireless clamping ring strain type torque sensor 12 and the shank body 11. A locking nut is used for locking. The first elastomeric end ring 1 is deformed by the locking nut to lock the test shaft of the shank body 11. The tolerance requirement on the shaft can be reduced, and the first elastomeric end ring 1 and the test shaft can have a larger tolerance. When the aforementioned scheme is adopted, it is necessary to use a wireless clamping ring strain type torque sensor 12 to have an interference fit connection with the test shaft, which has high requirements on precision. Otherwise, it cannot be assembled and will become loose.
