Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ball screws, in particular to a ball screw efficiency detection device. Background Art

[0002] As a transmission component, the ball screw converts the rotational motion output by the servo motor into the linear motion of the driven part. The ball screw is composed of a screw, a roller and a nut, and has the advantages of high precision and high efficiency. Since the ball screw is usually used in industrial equipment and precision instruments, it is required to have high precision. Therefore, it is necessary to test the efficiency of the ball screw to determine whether it is a qualified product. The efficiency test of the ball screw is to calculate the efficiency of the ball screw by the input power loaded on the ball screw by the servo motor and the output power of the ball screw. The current detection device usually drives the screw of the ball screw to rotate by the servo motor, drives the slider to move by the nut, and loads the slider. After the ball screw is installed on the detection device, there is an installation gap between the ball screw and the detection device. When the servo motor is started to start the detection, the input power loaded by the servo motor on the ball screw will be used to push the slider to move after eliminating the installation gap between the ball screw and the detection device. This is inconsistent with the actual use scenario of the roller screw, resulting in inaccurate values ​​obtained by the detection. Utility Model Content

[0009] The hydraulic load is installed on the machine platform, and a tension pressure sensor is arranged between the hydraulic load and the movable seat.

[0010] According to the ball screw efficiency detection device of the embodiment of the utility model, when detecting the efficiency of the ball screw, the servo motor drives the screw of the ball screw to rotate, so that the nut of the ball screw pushes or pulls the movable seat to slide along the length direction of the machine platform, and work is done on the hydraulic load when the movable seat slides along the length direction of the machine platform. The driving torque and angular velocity of the servo motor when driving the screw to rotate are detected by the torque speed sensor, and the input power Pin is calculated.

The hydraulic cylinder includes a cylinder body fixed on the machine platform and a piston installed in the cylinder body. The piston divides the inner cavity of the hydraulic cylinder into a first chamber close to the movable seat and a second chamber away from the movable seat. The pull and pressure sensor is connected between the piston of the hydraulic cylinder and the movable seat.

At the same time, when the motor rotates forward to perform a thrust test, the piston disc squeezes the second chamber, and the hydraulic oil in the oil pot can enter the first chamber through the connecting chamber and the connecting hole in time, thereby enabling the hydraulic system to quickly adapt to the switching between the forward push and reverse pull tests of the ball screw.

[0050] In a preferred embodiment of the utility model, the hydraulic load 50 includes a hydraulic cylinder 51, an oil pot 52, and a steel cylinder 57. The hydraulic cylinder 51 includes a cylinder body 511 fixed on the machine platform 10, and a piston 512 installed in the cylinder body 511. The piston 512 divides the inner cavity of the hydraulic cylinder 51 into a first chamber 5111 close to the movable seat 40 and a second chamber 5112 away from the movable seat 40. The tension and pressure sensor 70 is connected between the piston 512 of the hydraulic cylinder 51 and the movable seat 40. The steel cylinder 57 is used to communicate with the second chamber 5112 when the movable seat 40 pushes the piston 512 to move, and to communicate with the first chamber 5111 when the movable seat 40 pulls the piston 512 to move. The oil pot 52 is used to replenish hydraulic oil into the first chamber 5111 when the movable seat 40 pushes the piston 512 to move, and to replenish hydraulic oil into the second chamber 5112 when the movable seat 40 pulls the piston 512 to move. The hydraulic load 50 is used as the work object of the ball screw. When the hydraulic load 50 is constructed, the corresponding stroke of the hydraulic load 50 when subjected to a preset pressure can be adjusted by adjusting the number and size of the steel cylinder 57. In this way, the thrust / pull-stroke curve of the hydraulic load 50 can be adjusted accordingly according to the design parameters of the ball screw. Compared with the existing detection device using an electric cylinder as a load, it is not necessary to use a more complex software design and a complex structure, and the load required for the ball screw to be tested can be adjusted, thereby simplifying the structure of the detection device and reducing the difficulty of operating the detection device. In addition, in actual use, when the piston 512 moves to reduce the volume of the first chamber 5111 and the second chamber 5112, due to the steel cylinder 57 and the first chamber 51 11 or the second chamber 5112 is connected, and is connected with the first chamber 5111 or the second chamber 5112 through the steel cylinder 57 to form a larger pressure chamber, so that the lateral movement of the piston 512 can cause a negligible change in the volume of the larger pressure chamber, so that during the movement of the piston 512, the pressure applied by the first chamber 5111 or the second chamber 5112 to the piston 512 will not change significantly, that is to say, the force exerted by the load on the movable seat 40 is almost constant, and the pressure or tension between the movable seat 40 and the load measured by the tension and pressure sensor 70 is more accurate and direct, thereby improving the test accuracy, and there is no need to use a complex correction structure and program to calculate the actual value of the interaction force between the movable seat 40 and the load.

[0051] In a preferred embodiment of the utility model, the hydraulic load 50 further includes a first solenoid valve 53 and a second solenoid valve 54. The first chamber 5111 and the oil pot 52, the first chamber 5111 and the steel cylinder 57, the second chamber 5112 and the oil pot 52, and the second chamber 5112 and the steel cylinder 57 are all connected through pipelines. The first solenoid valve 53 is connected to the pipeline between the second chamber 5112 and the steel cylinder 57, and the second solenoid valve 54 is connected to the pipeline between the second chamber 5112 and the oil pot 52. Through the external signal of the solenoid valve, the automation and remote control of the hydraulic load 50 can be realized, and the test efficiency and convenience are improved. In particular, when the motor 20 rotates forward to complete the thrust test, the first solenoid valve 53 and the second solenoid valve 54 can be quickly controlled, and the motor 20 can be reversed to perform the tension test, so that the load can adapt to the switching of the forward push and reverse pull tests of the ball screw.

[0052] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the piston 512 includes a piston 512 plate located inside the cylinder 511 and a piston 512 rod extending from the cylinder 511, the piston 512 rod divides the inner cavity of the cylinder 511 into a first chamber 5111 and a second chamber 5112, the piston 512 rod is tightly matched with the cylinder 511, and a connecting cavity 5113 is formed between the inner wall of the cylinder 511 and the outer peripheral surface of the piston 512 rod. A connecting hole 5123 is provided on the piston rod 512. The two openings 5124 formed on the outer peripheral surface of the piston rod 512 are staggered along the axial direction of the piston rod 512. The two openings 5124 of the connecting hole are connected to the connecting cavity 5113 and the first chamber 5111 respectively to conduct the connecting cavity 5113 and the first chamber 5111. The pipeline for connecting the first chamber 5111 and the oil pot 52 is connected between the connecting cavity 5113 and the oil pot 52. Two sealing cups may be installed between the cylinder body 511 and the piston rod 512. The two sealing cups are respectively located at both sides of the connecting cavity 5113. The two sealing cups can not only realize the sealing of the cylinder body 511 and the piston rod 512, but also seal both sides of the connecting cavity 5113 respectively. By utilizing the connecting holes with two openings 5124 of the piston 512 rod staggered from each other, the first chamber 5111 can be connected with the connecting chamber 5113. When the motor 20 reverses to perform a tensile test on the ball screw, the piston 512 plate can be moved outward to the extreme position as far as possible to drain the hydraulic oil in the first chamber 5111 as much as possible. At the same time, when the motor 20 rotates forward to perform a thrust test, the piston 512 plate squeezes the second chamber 5112, and the hydraulic oil in the oil pot 52 can enter the first chamber 5111 in time through the connecting chamber 5113 and the connecting hole, thereby enabling the hydraulic system to quickly adapt to the switching between the forward push and reverse pull tests of the ball screw.

The adjustment seat 55 and the mounting plate 56 are fastened together by locking bolts. The mounting plate 56 is used to adjust the position of the hydraulic cylinder 51 on the machine 10, so that the position of the hydraulic cylinder 51 in the length direction of the machine 10 can adapt to the detection requirements of the ball screw, and together with the number and size of the cylinder 57 and other parameters, the hydraulic load 50 can be flexibly adjusted.

[0054] In a preferred embodiment of the utility model, a mounting frame 14 is fixed on the machine 10, and the oil pot 52 is fixed on the mounting frame 14. The height of the oil pot 52 is higher than the height of the hydraulic cylinder 51 so that the hydraulic oil in the oil pot 52 can flow into the first chamber 5111 or the second chamber 5112 by its own gravity. The mounting frame 14 is used to mount the oil pot 52 at a position with a height greater than that of the hydraulic cylinder 51, and the hydraulic oil in the oil pot 52 can flow into the first chamber 5111 or the second chamber 5112 by its own gravity, so that the hydraulic oil is replenished in the first chamber 5111 and the second chamber 5112 in time, thereby simplifying the structure of the hydraulic load 50.
