Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ball screw measurement technology, and more specifically, to a ball screw OBD diameter measuring block gauge structure. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of precision machinery manufacturing, measuring the groove diameter (OBD diameter) of ball screws is a crucial step in ensuring their performance and quality. Currently, existing measurement methods mostly employ manual gauge blocks or fixed measuring instruments, which have significant limitations when dealing with μ-level accuracy requirements. Due to the complex shape of the ball screw groove and its sensitivity to measuring forces, traditional measuring tools struggle to achieve uniform and stable contact, resulting in poor measurement repeatability. Furthermore, existing equipment often lacks multi-point synchronous measurement capabilities, and errors can easily be introduced during measurement due to uneven contact at single points or fluctuations in measuring forces. This leads to repeatability errors exceeding 2 micrometers, failing to meet the qualification criteria of Measurement System Analysis (MSA), such as GRR (Gadget Repeatability and Reproducibility) less than 10% and Cgk (Gadget Capability Index) greater than 1.33. Simultaneously, the fixing and control methods of existing measuring gauge blocks are relatively simple, failing to achieve flexible adjustment and precise release, further exacerbating measurement instability. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, this utility model provides a ball screw OBD diameter measuring block gauge structure that can achieve high precision, high repeatability and stable and reliable ball screw OBD diameter measurement.

[0005] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this solution are as follows: By setting up a carrier, multiple gauge block components, a sliding seat, and a control component, this structure enables multi-point synchronous measurement of the OBD diameter of the ball screw. The elastic sliding design of the gauge block components allows the measuring part to gently and consistently contact the workpiece under the pull and release of the control component, thereby eliminating errors caused by manual operation or improper fixing in traditional measurements, improving the repeatability and stability of the measurement. At the same time, the precise control of the control component ensures the uniform application of the measuring force, reduces external interference, and makes the entire measurement process more reliable and efficient, meeting the stringent requirements of the high-precision manufacturing field, and significantly improving the consistency and capability indicators of the measurement system.

[0006] In one embodiment of this utility model, each gauge block assembly further includes: a fixing member, which connects the sliding seat and the control component, and the fixing seat has a measuring component on the side closer to the test piece; a sensor module, which is located on the carrier; and a ball head, which connects to the sensor module; wherein the sensor module performs feedback measurement through the ball head and the measuring component.

[0007] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this solution are as follows: By connecting the sliding seat and control components with a fixing component and setting up a sensor module and ball head, this structure enables real-time feedback and accurate acquisition of measurement data.

[0012] In one embodiment of this utility model, an elastic element is provided between each sliding seat and each control component, and the initial state of the elastic element is such that the measuring component is close to the component to be measured.

[0013] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this solution are as follows: By setting an elastic element between each sliding seat and the control component, and ensuring that the initial state is that the measuring element is close to the test piece, this structure achieves buffering and gentle contact of the measuring element, avoiding damage to the test piece or measurement errors caused by hard contact. The buffering effect of the elastic element reduces impact force, improves the smoothness and repeatability of the measurement, and ensures the consistent application of the measurement force, enhancing the stability and controllability of the measurement process, thereby improving the overall measurement accuracy and equipment lifespan.

[0014] In one embodiment of this utility model, in the initial state, the measuring element does not contact the object to be measured.

[0015] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by adopting this technical solution are as follows: By ensuring that the measuring component does not contact the test piece in the initial state, this structure avoids measurement deviations caused by preloading or accidental contact, making the measurement process start from zero, which is more accurate and controllable. At the same time, it reduces equipment wear and surface damage to the test piece, and extends its service life. This design ensures uniform initialization of the measuring force, improves the consistency and reliability of the measurement, and significantly reduces human operation errors, especially in precision measurement.

[0017] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by adopting this technical solution are as follows: By setting the mounting position and control components, the control components can control the movement of the sliding seat, realizing the adjustment of the gauge block components. The operation of the control components is simple and reliable, ensuring the uniform application and release of the measuring force, improving the consistency of measurement and ease of operation. At the same time, the design of the mounting position enhances the stability and rigidity of the overall structure, reduces external interference, and makes the measurement process more accurate and efficient, meeting the stringent requirements of high-precision manufacturing.

[0018] In one embodiment of this utility model, multiple gauge blocks are distributed on both sides of the part to be measured.

[0019] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this technical solution are as follows: By distributing multiple gauge block components on both sides of the workpiece to be measured, this structure achieves symmetrical measurement, enabling simultaneous detection of multiple points in the groove, eliminating the eccentricity error that may be caused by unilateral measurement, and improving the comprehensiveness and accuracy of the measurement. It is especially suitable for diameter measurement of circular or symmetrical workpieces. This layout ensures the balanced distribution of measurement forces, reduces the influence of local stress, and thus improves measurement repeatability and overall system performance.

[0020] In one embodiment of this utility model, the shape of the contact side between the measuring element and the part to be measured is adapted to the part to be measured.

[0021] Compared with existing technologies, the technical effects achieved by this solution are as follows: by adapting the shape of the contact side of the measuring component to that of the component under test, the structure ensures that the contact area is maximized and the stress distribution is uniform during measurement, reducing deformation or errors caused by local pressure, improving measurement accuracy and repeatability, and protecting the surface of the component under test from damage.
