The present application belongs to the technical field of rotorcraft testing and measurement, and relates to a rotor total
pitch angle measuring device and method. The rotor total
pitch angle measuring device comprises a rotor
system component and a reference disc component; the rotor
system component realizes synchronous
pitch change of the blades at the same angle, and realizes adjustment of the rotor total
pitch angle; the reference disc component constitutes a
reference surface, provides a unified reference for measuring the rotor total
pitch angle, and is fixedly connected with the rotating shaft of the rotor
system component. The present application constructs a physical
reference surface by means of the reference disc component, and has simple overall structure, low
processing and using cost, and convenient
assembly and construction. The present application directly measures the real rotor total
pitch angle by means of the reference disc
distance measurement combined with the inverse sine trigonometric function geometric conversion, avoids the
calibration error caused by the non-linear factors such as
assembly deviation and structural friction which are not considered in pure
simulation fitting, and has higher calibration precision.
