Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a motor positioning torque measuring device, and more particularly to a motor positioning torque measuring device based on a static torque sensor. Background Technology
[0002] Motor positioning torque, also known as reluctance torque or cogging torque, refers to the electromagnetic torque generated by the interaction between the permanent magnet and the cogging teeth of the iron core when the motor is not energized. It is an inherent physical phenomenon of motors.
[0003] The current method for measuring motor positioning torque in the industry is represented by Sugawara of Japan. It uses dynamic torque sensors, which are difficult to manufacture and expensive. The dynamic torque sensor is connected to the motor output shaft, the motor body is fixed, and a power source and transmission mechanism are set up to rotate the motor output shaft. The torque of the rotating motor output shaft is measured by the dynamic torque sensor. This measurement method is limited by the structure of the mechanism, the accuracy of the sensor, and the difficulty of manufacturing. The smaller the positioning torque of the motor being measured, the higher the requirements for the structure of the mechanism and the accuracy of the sensor.
[0004] A search of Chinese Patent Publication No. CN218156757U reveals a closed-loop motor dynamic testing fixture, specifically comprising a base plate, a dynamic torque sensor box disposed in the middle of the base plate, a torque chamber disposed at one end of the dynamic torque sensor box, and a motor mounting base disposed at the other end. Vibration sensors are disposed at each of the four corners of the bottom of the motor mounting base. A first adjustment component is disposed on the surface of the motor mounting base, and a second adjustment component is disposed above the motor mounting base, with the first and second adjustment components perpendicularly arranged. However, this existing motor testing process also uses a dynamic torque sensor, which suffers from high testing costs.
[0005] Therefore, how to further reduce testing costs while ensuring measurement accuracy has become a technical problem that needs to be solved. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide a motor positioning torque measuring device based on a static torque sensor.
[0007] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0008] According to one aspect of the present invention, a motor positioning torque measuring device based on a static torque sensor is provided. The device is connected to the motor under test, and the measuring device includes a base unit and a drive rotation unit.
[0009] The base unit includes a mounting base plate, an upper mounting plate, an upper mounting plate adjustment mechanism, a product positioning plate, and a static torque sensor.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution, the static torque sensor is provided with a first positioning pin that cooperates with the adapter to constrain the relative rotation between the adapter and the static torque sensor.
[0014] As a preferred technical solution, the mounting base plate is provided with a waist-shaped groove that mates with the first positioning pin for circumferential positioning of the static torque sensor, and the adapter is provided with a limiting groove that mates with the first positioning pin.
[0015] As a preferred technical solution, the drive rotation unit also includes a bearing mounted on the mounting base for positioning the rotation center of the motor mounting base.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0021] 1) This utility model realizes the real-time acquisition of external dynamic torque using a static torque sensor, causing relative rotational motion between the stationary and rotating parts of the motor.

Based on the relationship that the action torque and reaction torque are equal, the external torque can be measured in real time. It has the advantages of simpler structure, high accuracy, high stability and low cost.
[0022] 2) The torque sensor of the force measuring unit of this utility model is a high-precision and low-cost static torque sensor.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present utility model. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0034] like Figure 1 As shown in Figure 4(a), a motor positioning torque measuring device based on a static torque sensor is connected to the motor 3 under test. The measuring device includes a base unit 1 and a drive rotation unit 2.
[0035] The base unit is the basic component for installing the device, providing limit positioning for the product under test and facilitating the placement and removal of the product under test. The static torque sensor used for measurement can be directly installed on the base unit. The drive rotation unit is installed on the base unit. The connecting component on the base unit 1 connects the rotation drive of the drive rotation unit with the rotation component of the motor under test, so as to drive the rotation component of the motor under test to rotate together.
[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, the base unit 1 includes a mounting base plate 11, an upper mounting plate 15, an upper mounting plate adjustment mechanism, a product positioning plate 16, and a static torque sensor 19. The upper mounting plate 15 is mounted on the mounting base plate 11 through the upper mounting plate adjustment mechanism. The static torque sensor 19 is mounted on the mounting base plate 11. The product positioning plate 16 is mounted on the upper mounting plate 15. The motor under test 3 is mounted on the product positioning plate 16 for positioning the center position of the motor under test 3. The limiting blocks 17 on both sides are used to limit the rotation of the stationary part of the product during the measurement process.
[0037] The upper mounting plate adjustment mechanism includes a bushing 12, a guide rod 13, and a fixing ring 14. The bushing 12 is mounted on the mounting base plate 11, and the guide rod 13 is fixed on the upper mounting plate 15. The bushing 12 and the fixing ring 14 are respectively sleeved on the guide rod 13.
[0038] Mounting base plate 11 provides a mechanism mounting platform for the device. The relative position of bushing 12 and guide rod 13 is fixed. The height of upper mounting plate 15 can be adjusted by the bushing 12 to accommodate different products. Fixing ring 14 is used for limiting the height after adjustment.
[0039] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the connection structure between the static positioning torque sensor and the mounting base plate 11 mentioned above. Figure 2 The static torque sensor shown has a first positioning pin 18 located below it, which is connected to... Figure 3 The mounting base plate 11 shown has a waist-shaped groove 111 that fits in, which limits the static torque sensor circumferentially so that it cannot rotate relative to the sensor.
[0040] As shown in Figures 4(a) and 4(b), the drive rotary unit 2 includes a mounting base 21, a motor mounting base 22, a connecting member 23, an adapter 27, and a drive motor 211. The mounting base 21 is mounted on the mounting base 11, the motor mounting base 22 is mounted inside the mounting base 21, and the drive motor 211 is mounted on the motor mounting base 22. One end of the adapter 27 is connected to the motor mounting base 22, and the other end is connected to the static torque sensor 19. One end of the connecting member 23 is connected to the motor 3 to be tested, and the other end is connected to the drive motor 211.
[0041] The drive rotary unit 2 also includes a bearing 25, which is mounted on the mounting base 21. The bearing can be a rolling bearing or other parts with a sufficiently small coefficient of friction that is less than the measured external torque. The purpose is to position the rotation center of the motor mounting base 22 installed therein.
[0042] The drive motor 211 (which may be a motor with a gearbox) is fixed to the motor mounting base 22 by locking bolts 29. Two second positioning pins 26 are installed on the top of the adapter 27 and cooperate with the limiting groove provided on the motor mounting base 22 to constrain the relative rotation of the motor mounting base 22 and the adapter 27. The lower part of the adapter 27 is provided with a limiting groove that cooperates with the positioning pins installed on the static torque sensor mentioned above, constraining the relative rotation of the adapter 27 and the static torque sensor. The mounting base 21 is provided with a drive line for driving the motor 211 to drive the motor. The connecting part 23 is used to transmit the rotational power of the drive motor 211 to the rotating part of the motor under test (which may be the motor shaft). Its lower end is circumferentially fixed to the output shaft 24 of the drive motor 211 and can rotate together with the output shaft 24 of the drive motor 211.
[0043] like Figure 5As shown, this is a schematic diagram of the structure of the drive rotary unit connected to the rotary component of the motor under test via a connecting member. The mounting base 21 of the drive rotary unit is fixed on the mounting base plate 11, and the rotation center of the drive rotary unit coincides with the axis of the static torque sensor of the base unit. The upper end of the connecting member 23 is connected to the rotation shaft 31 (motor shaft) of the motor under test 3, and the lower end of the connecting member 23 is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 211. The rotating shaft 31 of the motor under test is driven to rotate together through the connecting member 23; the rotating drive motor 211 drives the rotating shaft 31 (motor shaft) of the motor under test 3 to rotate together through the connecting member 23. The rotor and stator of the motor under test generate an external torque (positioning torque) by relative rotation. The reaction torque of the external torque causes the mechanism to rotate, which is transmitted to the motor, motor mounting base, adapter, and static torque sensor of the driving rotating unit. The static torque sensor measures the external dynamic torque value in real time during the process, and then obtains the positioning torque value of the motor.
[0044] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of various equivalent modifications or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, and these modifications or substitutions should all be covered within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
