[0032] This application proposes a high-speed motor dynamometer measuring device, referring to... Figures 1 to 3The high-speed motor dynamometer includes: a base 10; a secondary test motor 21 located at one end of the base 10; a torque sensor 22 located on the output shaft of the secondary test motor 21; a shaft housing 23, including a housing on the base 10 and a drive shaft passing through the housing, one end of the drive shaft being connected to the end of the torque sensor 22 away from the secondary test motor 21; a diaphragm coupling 24 connected to the drive shaft; a mounting base 25 slidably mounted on the base 10 for mounting the main test motor, with the sliding direction along the axial direction; and an adjustment mechanism located on the base 10 and connected to the mounting base 25, used to drive the mounting base 25 to slide under external force. When installing the diaphragm coupling at one end of the shaft housing 23, the adjustment mechanism can be used to move the mounting base 25 and the main test motor away from the secondary test motor 21, providing more installation space for the diaphragm coupling 24. After installation, the main test motor can be brought closer to the diaphragm coupling 24 for docking, which can improve assembly efficiency and assembly accuracy.

[0033] In this embodiment, the base 10 can be a cast iron platform with T-slots for mounting and fixing the main test motor, auxiliary test motor 21, torque sensor 22, and other equipment. The diaphragm coupling 24 consists of at least one diaphragm and two bushings. The diaphragm is fastened to the bushings with pins and generally will not loosen or cause backlash between the diaphragm and bushings. It can compensate for axial, radial, and angular misalignment between the driving and driven motors caused by manufacturing errors, installation errors, load deformation, and temperature rise changes. The diaphragm coupling 24 is a flexible coupling with metal elastic elements. It relies on the metal coupling diaphragm to connect the driving and driven motors and transmit torque, and has the advantages of elastic vibration reduction, no noise, and no need for lubrication. The coupling is applicable to a speed range of 20,000-32,000 rpm. It provides significant length and angular deflection compensation, with an axial range of ±3mm and an angular range of 1-3°. Bearings are provided on the opposite side walls of the shaft box 23, and the drive shaft is fitted with the bearings.

[0034] In some embodiments, the high-speed motor measuring device further includes a guide rail 11 parallel to the base 10 and a slider located at the bottom of the mounting base 25. The slider is slidably connected to the guide rail 11, and the length direction of the guide rail 11 is along the axial direction. In this embodiment, the main measuring motor is mounted on the mounting base 25, which adopts an L-shaped bracket and a lead screw slide design, with a forward and backward movement distance of 600mm. The distance between the end face of the L-shaped bracket and the end face of the coupling is adjustable from 0-400mm, and the overall coaxiality is guaranteed to be ≤0.02mm. The mounting base 25 is provided with a through hole for the shaft of the main measuring motor to pass through, and mounting holes arranged around the through hole. Screws can be installed in the mounting holes to connect with the screw holes on the main measuring motor, thereby fixing the main measuring motor on the mounting base 25.

[0035] In some embodiments, the adjustment mechanism further includes: a lead screw 31, axially arranged and located between the guide rails 11, the lead screw 31 being rotatably mounted on the base 10; and a nut 32, cooperating with the lead screw 31 and connected to the mounting base 25. Additionally, the adjustment mechanism includes an adjustment handwheel 33, connected to the lead screw 31, for driving the lead screw 31 to rotate. The slide table is supported by guide rails 11 on both sides, and the ball screw uses a hand-cranked structure for forward and backward movement. Side positioning plates are installed on both sides to prevent changes in the coaxiality of the motor when the L-shaped bracket moves forward and backward. This allows the motor to be moved forward and backward at any time during installation, ensuring labor savings when the main test motor is replaced later. The design of the positioning plates also eliminates the need for subsequent coaxiality adjustment, achieving a time-saving and labor-saving effect.

[0036] In addition, the high-speed motor dynamometer also includes a drive motor, which is mounted on the base 10 and connected to the lead screw 31 to drive the lead screw 31 to rotate. The adjustment mechanism can also be driven by a motor, with an external motor driving the lead screw 31 to rotate, thereby causing the mounting base 25 to slide, which can save adjustment time. Of course, when using the automatic adjustment function, attention should be paid to the position of the mounting base 25 to avoid interference or collision with the coupling.

[0037] In some embodiments, the adjusting mechanism further includes a transmission assembly 34 connecting the handwheel 33 and the lead screw 31. The transmission assembly 34 includes a worm gear at one end of the lead screw 31 and a worm cooperating with the worm gear. The worm is vertically arranged, and the handwheel 33 is located at the upper end of the worm. Alternatively, the transmission assembly 34 includes a first bevel gear at one end of the lead screw 31, a second bevel gear meshing with the first bevel gear, and a central shaft located at the center of the second bevel gear. The central shaft is vertically arranged, and the handwheel 33 is located at the upper end of the central shaft. In this embodiment, the worm gear or bevel gear set can achieve a reversing function, causing the handwheel 33 to face upwards. Of course, the worm gear also has a certain reduction ratio, which can further improve the adjustment accuracy. The ball screw 31 is a 32mm type, with a diameter of 32mm and a lead of 5mm.

[0038] In some embodiments, the high-speed motor dynamometer also includes a protective cover 12 mounted on the base 10. The auxiliary test motor 21, torque sensor 22, axle box 23, and diaphragm coupling 24 are located inside the protective cover 12, with the end of the diaphragm coupling away from the drive shaft passing through the protective cover 12. In this embodiment, due to the significant wind noise caused by high speed, the auxiliary test motor 21, torque sensor 22, axle box 23, and coupling can be completely covered to reduce equipment noise. The protective cover 12 on the auxiliary test motor side is made of sound-insulating material to prevent internal noise from being transmitted to the environment. A lifting ring is installed on the upper part of the protective cover 12 for easy future inspection and maintenance. Explosion-proof glass is installed on the side for easy observation of the internal operation. In addition, a movable protective cover 12 is installed on the main test motor side, and a lifting ring is also installed on the top. A crane is used for hoisting during daily use.

[0039] In this embodiment, the workflow of the tunnel construction equipment is as follows:

[0040] The high-speed motor dynamometer device in this embodiment includes a base 10, a secondary test motor 21, a torque sensor 22, a shaft box 23, and a diaphragm coupling 24, which are mounted on the base 10 and connected sequentially along the axial direction. It also includes a mounting base 25 and an adjustment mechanism located on one side of the diaphragm coupling 24. The mounting base 25 is used to mount the main test motor, which can be connected to the diaphragm coupling 24. The adjustment mechanism is connected to the mounting base 25 and is used to drive the mounting base 25 to slide under external force. When installing the diaphragm coupling at one end of the shaft box 23, the adjustment mechanism can be used to move the mounting base 25 and the main test motor away from the secondary test motor 21, providing more installation space for the diaphragm coupling 24. After installation, the main test motor can be brought closer to the diaphragm coupling 24 for docking, improving assembly efficiency and accuracy.
