  • Publication number: 20240399537
    Abstract: An evolutionary compensation method for a spindle rotation error of a CNC grinding machine is provided. Feature points are determined at an edge of a central hole of a spindle of a CNC grinding machine, and a spindle rotation error in-situ measuring device is fixed on the grinding machine and aligned with the edge of the central hole; a trajectory image of the feature points is acquired by using the measuring device; a measured value of the spindle rotation error is obtained according to the trajectory image; features of the spindle rotation error are fused with the measured value of the spindle rotation error, a spindle rotation error compensation model is established, to output a spindle rotation error compensation value, thereby compensating the spindle rotation error. By continuously calibrating the error model using the measured value, accuracy of the error model has been continuously optimized.

  • Patent number: 12118278
    Abstract: A difference analysis method for 3D CAD models based on key-point matching. According to the method, a 3D CAD model is firstly transformed into a key-point representation, then a graph representation and a graph matching method are introduced to establish a pre-matching of vertices between the two 3D CAD models, and rigid transformation parameters between the two 3D CAD models are obtained through a mismatch elimination method; and subsequently, a matching relationship of key-points is established by checking their distance after rigid transformation to obtain a key-point matching sequence for hierarchical comparison, so as to identify the differences between vertices, edges, faces and solid models, thereby quickly and accurately identifying the difference between the 3D CAD models.

  • Patent number: 11977823
    Abstract: In a method for designing a high-rigidity blade based on stochastic isogeometric analysis, the models of stochastic fields of the material property and the external load of the blade are established based on manufacturing conditions and service environment of the blade; an optimization model of the blade is established according to high-rigidity design requirements of the blade and a constraint condition of lift-drag ratio, which is then solved. In the solution procedure, a stochastic isogeometric analysis method is used to calculate the stochastic displacement of the blade under the influence of the randomness of the material property and the external load, and the maximum lift-drag ratio of the blade airfoil is also calculated, based on which the fitness values of individuals in the current population are calculated, so that the high-rigidity design of the blade is realized in the premise of ensuring the lift-drag ratio.
