[0027] Regarding the precision error compensation for various tilt angles in a machine tool, it has always been a difficult problem to ensure the machining precision during the movement of the machine tool bed. Since numerically controlled machine tools are mainly applied to various high-efficiency, precision, and automated machining, and the position precision of multi-axis linkage is directly related to the final machining precision of the machine tool, it is particularly important to perform laser compensation for the precision error of the moving axes of the numerically controlled machine tool during the machine tool debugging stage. In the prior art, when measuring the diagonal of a machine tool, the laser interferometer device can only be installed on the machine tool workbench, and then by adding a refractive mirror and an angle reflector to the interference mirror, the beam and the mirror group are continuously debugged to measure the corresponding motion precision. However, adding a refractive mirror and an angle reflector not only takes a lot of debugging time and equipment maintenance costs but also introduces new measurement errors.

[0028] To solve the above problems, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a laser interferometer multi-angle measurement device. The laser interferometer multi-angle measurement device of the embodiment of the present disclosure will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 1 which is a schematic structural diagram of a laser interferometer multi-angle measurement device provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure; Figure 2 which is a schematic structural diagram of a laser interferometer multi-angle measurement device provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure when installed on a tripod.Figure 3 This is a schematic structural diagram of another case where a multi-angle measuring device of a laser interferometer provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure is installed on a tripod. An embodiment of the first aspect of the present disclosure provides a multi-angle measuring device 10 of a laser interferometer, including a working plate 1, an angle base plate 2, a pitch angle plate 3, a support column 4, and a working pan-tilt head 5.

[0030] The working plate 1 includes opposite first surface 11 and second surface 12. A hollow groove 13 is provided at the edge of the working plate 1. The angle base plate 2 is arranged at a first included angle with the working plate 1. The end of the working plate 1 where the hollow groove 13 is located is placed on the angle base plate 2, and the angle base plate 2 is provided with a yaw scale line 21 corresponding to the hollow groove 13. During measurement, the yaw scale line 21 of the angle base plate 2 can be observed through the hollow groove 13 to determine the yaw angle of the working plate 1. Optionally, the angle base plate 2 includes a connected third part 22 and a fourth part 23. The support column 4 is connected to the third part 22, and the fourth part 23 is semicircular. The yaw scale line 21 is arranged on the fourth part 23. Optionally, the yaw angle lines include 0° line, ±15° lines, ±30° lines, ±45° lines, ±60° lines, ±75° lines, and ±90° lines, and the yaw angle lines represent the laser yaw angle. The pitch angle plate 3 includes a first border area and a second border area. The first border area is connected to the second surface 12, and a plurality of first threaded holes 31 are provided on the second border area. The support column 4 connects the angle base plate 2 and one of the first threaded holes 31, where different first threaded holes 31 correspond to different first included angles. It should be understood that the more the number of the first threaded holes 31, the wider the measurement range during the diagonal measurement of the machine tool. The working pan-tilt head 5 is used to emit laser, and the working pan-tilt head 5 is connected to the first surface 11. Optionally, all parts of the multi-angle measuring device 10 of the laser interferometer are made of alloy.

[0031] When the multi-angle measuring device 10 of the laser interferometer provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is used for the diagonal measurement of the machine tool, according to the running angle of the machine tool detection axis, the support column 4 is connected to the corresponding first threaded hole 31 on the pitch angle plate 3. After making the included angle between the working plate 1 and the angle base plate 2 approximately the same as the running angle of the machine tool detection axis, the support column 4 and the pitch angle plate 3 are fastened, and the yaw scale line 21 of the angle base plate 2 is observed through the hollow groove 13 to determine the yaw angle of the working plate 1. Finally, the measurement is carried out according to the inspection standard. Using the multi-angle measuring device 10 of the laser interferometer can avoid using too many lens groups during the measurement to increase the cosine error, not only improve the accuracy of the tilt axis measurement, but also can be used multiple times with one installation, greatly reducing the measurement time and reducing various measurement costs.

[0032] In some alternative embodiments, the working plate 1 includes a first part 14 and a second part 15. The first part 14 is semi-circular, and the hollow groove 13 is provided in the first part 14. The pitch angle plate 3 is connected to the second part 15. The semi-circular first part 14 is placed on the angle base plate 2. It is equivalent that the part where the working plate 1 contacts the angle base plate 2 is a point, and this point is also located in the hollow groove 13, which is more convenient to observe the yaw scale line 21 of the angle base plate 2 through the hollow groove 13 so as to determine the yaw angle of the working plate 1.

[0033] In some alternative embodiments, the second part 15 is provided with a second threaded hole 151, and the first side area is connected to the second threaded hole 151 by a bolt. The bolt connection structure is reliable and the connection is simple.

[0034] In some alternative embodiments, a limiting groove is provided on the second part 15, and the first side area is placed in the limiting groove. The pitch angle plate 3 is clamped in the limiting groove, which is convenient for positioning and installation, and can prevent the pitch angle plate 3 from shifting, causing measurement errors.

[0035] In some alternative embodiments, the pitch angle plate 3 is semi-circular, the second side area is an arc-shaped side area, and the number of the first threaded holes 31 is 5. The first included angles corresponding to the 5 first threaded holes 31 are 20°, 30°, 45°, 60°, and 75° respectively. By setting 5 first threaded holes 31, 5 common measurement angles can be obtained. Under the condition of meeting the measurement requirements as much as possible, the processing difficulty can be reduced. It should be understood that in the case of requiring more measurement angles, more first threaded holes 31 can be drilled on the pitch angle plate 3.

[0036] In some alternative embodiments, the end of the support column 4 connected to the pitch angle plate 3 is provided with a groove, and threaded holes are provided on the opposite two side surfaces of the groove. By providing the groove, it is convenient to connect the pitch angle plate 3 and the support column 4 by bolts, and at the same time, the groove can play a role in limiting the pitch angle plate 3 to a certain extent.

[0037] In some alternative embodiments, third threaded holes 24 and fourth threaded holes 25 are provided on the angle base plate 2 at intervals along the first direction. The end of the support column 4 away from the pitch angle plate 3 is connected to the third threaded hole 24 or the fourth threaded hole 25, so as to adapt to measurements at different angles. Exemplarily, the distance from the third threaded hole 24 to the yaw scale line 21 is less than the distance from the fourth threaded hole 25 to the yaw scale line 21. The third threaded hole 24 and the fourth threaded hole 25 are respectively applied to large-angle inclination measurement and small-angle inclination measurement, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown.

[0038] In some alternative embodiments, the angle base plate 2 includes two positioning slots 26 spaced apart in the second direction. By providing the positioning slots 26, while reducing the weight, when installing the laser interferometer multi-angle measuring device 10 provided in this embodiment onto the machine tool workbench, rapid positioning and installation can be achieved through the positioning slots 26.

[0039] In some alternative embodiments, a fifth threaded hole 27 is provided on the angle base plate 2, and the fifth threaded hole 27 is used to connect the angle base plate 2 and the tripod 20 by bolts, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown. By providing the fifth threaded hole 27, during the diagonal measurement of the machine tool, the laser interferometer multi-angle measuring device 10 can be installed on the tripod 20, overcoming the limitation that the existing laser interferometer equipment can only be installed on the machine tool workbench, and having a wider range of applications.

[0040] As described above, the above are only specific embodiments of the present disclosure, but the protection scope of the present disclosure is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present disclosure should be covered within the protection scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, the protection scope of the present disclosure should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
