[0012] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the movable reaction rod structure of this utility model. Detailed Implementation
[0013] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.
[0014] One such Figure 1-2 The calibration carriage for the tightening system shown includes a carriage frame 1, with casters 12 at the four corners of the bottom surface for easy movement. Multiple simulated bolts 2 of different specifications are mounted on the platform 11 on the top surface of the carriage frame 1, suitable for calibrating six bolt types: LENS ISO14583 6.0×12, M10-30NM-30DEG, M12-60NM-30DEG, M16-200NM-60DEG, M20-400NM-60DEG, and M30-800NM-60DEG. A movable reaction rod 3 is located at one end of the carriage frame 1 to provide reverse support force to the tightening system. A handle 4 is located at the other end of the carriage frame 1 for easy pushing of the carriage by the worker.
[0015] The simulated bolt 2 is positioned on the bottom surface of the platform 11 by a fixing seat 5. The fixing seat 5 is fastened to the platform 11 by bolts. The fixing seat 5 has a square hole, and the lower end of the simulated bolt has a square head that inserts into the upper hole of the fixing seat 5. The top surface of the platform 11 has a round cover 6 for positioning the simulated bolt 2. The round cover 6 has a central hole in the middle through which the simulated bolt can pass. The round cover 6 is fastened to the platform 11 by screws.
[0016] The movable reaction rod 3 includes a movable seat 7 mounted on a cross-shaped translation mechanism. A mounting plate 8 is mounted on the movable seat 7, and two limit stops 9 are mounted on the mounting plate 8. During calibration, the front end of the tightening gun engages with a simulated bolt for calibration. The rear end of the tightening gun is limited between the two limit stops 9. The tightening gun's built-in torque and angle sensors measure the torque. The tightening gun is then connected to a controller to collect data, and the torque is calibrated according to the target value specified in the process. The torque-angle method is used, with the torque calibrated according to the target value specified in the process. For multiple torques and angles, each torque and angle needs to be calibrated.
[0017] The trolley is connected to a power source, and an automatic cable reel 10 is installed on the inner side of the trolley frame 1, which allows the trolley to move within a predetermined range without being bothered by the power cord. Multiple sockets are provided on the side of the trolley body for easy access to power from the tightening system.
[0018] To enable the limit stop 9 to adapt to simulated bolt calibration at multiple positions, the cross translation mechanism in this embodiment includes two linear bearings 31 mounted on the trolley frame 1, two guide rods 32 that slide with the two linear bearings 31 respectively, an end mounting plate 33 fixedly connected to one end of the two guide rods 32, two end mounting seats 34 fixed to both ends of the end mounting plate 33, a sliding guide rod 35 and a lead screw 36 connected between the two end mounting seats 34. The movable seat 7 is slidably mounted on the sliding guide rod 35. The movable seat 7 has a lead screw nut that cooperates with the lead screw 36. The lead screw 36 is connected to the end mounting seat 34 via bearings, and one end of the lead screw 36 is connected to a handwheel 37. The movable seat 7 moves back and forth by moving the guide rods 32, and moves left and right by rotating the handwheel 37. The end mounting seat 34 is provided with a first clamp 40 for locking the lead screw 36. The guide rods 32 are provided with anti-collision limit blocks 39 to prevent the guide rods 32 from exceeding their travel range. The trolley frame 1 is equipped with a second clamp 41 that locks the guide rod 32. When the guide rod 32 moves axially into position, the second clamp 41 is locked to restrict the position of the guide rod 32. When the moving seat 7 moves left or right into position, the first clamp 40 is locked to restrict the rotation of the lead screw 36, thereby fixing the relative position of the moving seat 7. Then the limit stop 9 is just locked at the rear end of the tightening gun.
