Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、表面仕上げ方法と装置に関し、特に大型タービン翼など、複雑な曲面形状を有した大型の鋳物製品の仕上げ加工方法と装置に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、大型タービン翼のような重量が大きく複雑な曲面形状を有するワークの高い精度を要求される仕上げ加工は人手で行われている。人手による仕上げ作業では、ベルト式の仕上げ装置に対しワークの表面を線接触させて仕上げていく方法が多く、研削加工とゲージ合わせによるワークの仕上げ状態確認作業を交互に繰り返し行ってワークを仕上げている。
【0003】
ワーク仕上げ状態の確認は、基準断面ごとに作成した基準ゲージを使って、研削加工の進み具合に合わせて基準断面ごとにワーク表面を基準ゲージと合わせる作業を何度も繰り返すため、作業時間が長大になっている。
また、基準ゲージと照らし合わせて次の研削加工を調整する必要があり、どの部分にどれだけの仕上げ代があるかを迅速かつ正確に測定し、ワーク位置・姿勢や加工力など最適な研削条件を選定するには相当の熟練を必要とする。
さらに、大型ワークを対象とするときは、作業者の肉体的負担が大きい。
このため、仕上げ作業の自動化が強く求められている。
【0004】
しかし、大型ワークの仕上げ作業の自動化には、重量の大きいワークと加工工具の間の3次元的な位置決め・姿勢決めを高精度で行わなければならない。特に、凹凸やねじれなど複雑な曲面形状を有するタービン翼を自動仕上げするためには、適度な剛性を持っていて正確に位置決めできかつ加工中に位置変化しないような高度な加工位置決め装置が必要である。また、位置決め機構およびその動作データは複雑であるため高度な動作制御機能と高度な演算機能を備えた演算装置が必要である。
したがって、このような装置を備えた自動化設備を導入するときの製作費用とメンテナンス費用が多大になるので、現状では殆ど実用化されていない。
【0005】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
そこで、本発明が解決しようとする課題は、タービン翼など大型で複雑な形状を有するワークに対して、より簡単な装置構成とより簡単な動作制御により高精度な自動仕上げを行う方法およびその方法を実施する装置を提供することである。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記課題を解決するため、本発明の自動仕上げ方法は、仕上げ対象ワークの断面形状を計測し、計測して得た断面形状とワーク仕上げ形状の設計値との差を算出して必要加工量とし、ワーク表面に存在する必要加工量がワーク表面全体に分散して均等化するようにワークの位置合わせを行うワーク位置調整工程を備えることを特徴とする。
【0007】
本発明の自動仕上げ方法によれば、ワークの最終形状となるべき設計形状と計測形状の位置合わせを行って得た必要加工量の情報から、ワークの最終形状表面に加工工具が一致する方向に加工具の動作を制御するので、ワーク位置姿勢と加工具位置調整に関する制御アルゴリズムが単純でしかも状況による変化が少なくなり、加工量や制御量算出の負荷が少なくて済む。
また、加工工具に対するワークの位置と姿勢を加工量が均等化して分布するように調整することができるので、研削加工の繰り返し回数が減少し加工効率が向上する。
【0008】
ワーク位置調整工程は、設計形状の輪郭上に第1と第2の特徴点を設定し、計測したワーク断面形状の輪郭上に設計形状の第1特徴点と対応する第1の対応特徴点を決めて、計測断面形状の輪郭上に第1対応特徴点から第1特徴点と第2特徴点の距離だけ離れた第2対応特徴点を検出して、第1特徴点を第1対応特徴点と重ね、第1対応特徴点と第2対応特徴点を結ぶ直線が第1特徴点と第2特徴点を結ぶ直線と重なるように配置し、さらにこの直線に垂直の方向に設計形状を移動させて設計形状と計測断面形状の偏差、すなわち計測断面形状の余肉が全周に分散されて均等化する位置に配置するようにすることにより、必要加工量の均等化を行うことができる。
【0009】
均等化が十分でないときは、第1対応特徴点の位置を計測断面形状の輪郭に沿って適当量移動させてから上記と同様に直線に垂直な方向に設計形状を移動して余肉を均等化させる位置における余肉分散状態を評価し、さらに第1対応特徴点を移動しては余肉分散状態を評価することを繰り返して、余肉が最も平均化する位置を見出すようにすることができる。
なお、余肉の平均は、輪郭の全周にわたる偏差の最小2乗平均値など高級な演算により得ることができるが、偏差の最大値と最小値の差が最小になる点をもって余肉が最も平均化する位置と見なして処理を簡単化しても仕上げ加工に支障をもたらすことはない。
【0010】
余肉の量を算定するときは設計形状輪郭に対する法線方向に計量することが好ましい。研削工具をワーク表面に対して垂直に押し付けて加工するときには、算定された必要加工量と研削工具の加工方向が一致するからである。ただし、設計形状を適当な間隔を有する平行面として定めたときは、その平面中でワーク断面形状を測定するようにして、設計形状輪郭に対する垂線方向に余肉量を算定すると演算が簡単になる。
本発明の手順を用いることにより、簡単な論理を用いて、迅速に、かついつも同じ手順で必要加工量を均等化することができる。
【0011】
さらに、仕上げ加工具に所定の方向に逃げられるとともに逃げ量に対応する押し付け力を発生するような逃げ機構を持たせて、加工具が逃げないときの元の位置がワークの仕上げ形状の表面に位置するようにして仕上げ加工を行うようにすることが好ましい。
仕上げ加工具に逃げ機構を備えることにより、加工具を固定してワークの加工面の位置と姿勢を調整するようにすると、たとえば、加工具の逃げる前の位置にワークの最終形状の表面位置を合わせるように動作させればよくなるので、研削加工を繰り返すたびに改めて異なるデータを形成する必要がなく、位置決め装置の動作量データが単純になる。
【0012】
また、必要加工量が大きいときには押し付け力が大きくなり、必要加工量がゼロの時は押し付け力がゼロになるようにすれば、仕上げ加工具が必要加工量の大きさに応じて押し付け力を付加するので、均等化した必要加工量に大小の差が残っても吸収することができ、また全体が仕上がる前に設計形状に合致する部分ができてもその部分は研削されないため、正しい形状に仕上げることができる。
また、荒研削から最終仕上げ研削まで異なる複数の仕上げを行う場合にも、ワークについて一旦加工位置決め動作量を算出すれば、各々の研削工具に対して比較的簡単な動作量補正を施すことにより、順次それらの仕上げ加工を行うことができ、またこれら複数の仕上げ工程の自動化も容易である。
【0013】
また、上記仕上げ方法を実施するため、本発明の自動仕上げ装置は、加工位置決め装置と研削装置とワーク形状計測装置とデータ記憶装置と制御装置を備える。このうち、加工位置決め装置はワークを先端に把持し制御装置の指示に従ってワークの位置と姿勢を調整する。また、研削装置はワークの表面に当たって表面の研削加工をする仕上げ工具を先端に備える。この仕上げ工具は所定の方向に移動ができ、仕上げ工具の押し付け力は移動量に応じて調整することができるように構成されている。ワーク形状計測装置はワークの外形形状を計測するもので、データ記憶装置はワークの最終仕上げ形状を記憶するものである。さらに、制御装置はワークの外形形状と最終仕上げ形状を比較して偏差をワーク表面全体にわたって分散させて均等化する位置を探索し、加工位置決め装置に指示してワークの位置と姿勢を調整させる。
【0014】
加工位置決め装置は、直交3軸と回転3軸の駆動ができればいつでもワーク表面の法線方向から仕上げ工具の作用面が当たるようにワークの位置姿勢を調整することができる。しかし、本発明の装置では、仕上げ工具に対してワーク表面を線接触させることを前提とするため、加工中にワークの軸の回転を行う必要がないので、回転1軸を省略して直交3軸と回転2軸の5自由度を持つようにすることができる。装置の自由度を少なくして動作軸を減らすと装置の剛性が向上するため、各軸の位置決め精度も向上し、かつ装置製作費用およびメンテナンス費用を削減して経済的な装置とすることができる。
【0015】
研削装置の逃げ機構は、仕上げ工具を支持する部分を搭載した1軸直動機構により構成することができる。1軸直動機構はワーク表面までの距離を変化させる方向に仕上げ工具を移動させる。また、仕上げ工具には押し付け力を測定する力覚センサを付属して移動量のフィードバック制御を行えるようにしてもよい。
仕上げ工具は、研削ベルトであって複数のローラで支持しベルト回転モータでベルトを回転させるようにしたものであってもよい。
また、研削装置を複数設けて、加工位置決め装置によりワークを当てる研削装置を選択できるように構成して、任意の仕上げ状態としたり、荒仕上げから最終仕上げまで順次に仕上げ状態を向上させることができるようにしてもよい。
【0016】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の大型ワーク用仕上げ装置について1の実施例に基づき図面を参照して詳細に説明する。
図1は、本実施例の自動仕上げ装置の構成図である。
本実施例の自動仕上げ装置1は、加工位置決め装置2、ベルト式の仕上げ工具31と押し付け力制御機構を備えた力制御式研削装置3、ワーク形状計測装置4、データ記憶装置5、これらを制御する制御装置6を備えている。
【0017】
加工位置決め装置2は、先端の把持部材21でワーク7を把持して仕上げ工具31に押し付けるもので、X軸、Y軸、Z軸の3自由度を有する並進機構と、図中垂直なZ軸周りのθ回転軸、紙面に平行なX軸周りのα回転軸の2個の回転軸を有する。したがって、ワーク7を取り付けるときに長手方向に挟んで軸方向に注意してセットしておけば、任意の表面位置で表面に対して仕上げ工具31がほぼ垂直に接するようにすることができる。
なお、θ回転軸はワークの曲面形状に合わせて表面傾斜を仕上げ工具面に沿うようにするために使用される。
【0018】
力制御式研削装置3は、ベルト式の仕上げ工具31と、仕上げ工具の研削ベルトを展張するローラ32とベルトを回転させるモータ33と、仕上げ工具31にかかる押し付け力を測定する力覚センサ34と、これらを搭載して1軸方向に移動させる1軸直動機構35を備えている。
測定形状と設計形状の偏差、すなわちワークの余肉量と、ワーク材質や工具の種類、工具の使用状況などにしたがって、仕上げ研削回数および研削時における研削厚さが決定される。
【0019】
また、仕上げ工具31は、力覚センサ34と力覚センサの検出出力を取り込んで駆動量を調整するフィードバック制御機構を備える。図2は、このフィードバック制御機構を説明するブロック図である。
工具31が作用するワーク7の表面に加工を必要とする部分Δが存在する場合は、必要加工部分Δに邪魔されて近づけない量だけ1軸直動機構35が加工装置を後退させて逃がす。このときの工具位置と最終目標位置との位置偏差量Δに基づいて掘り込み量を決定し、これに適合する押し付け力を算出して押し付け力指令値を発生する。工具31が実際に発生している押し付け力を力覚センサ34で検出し、押し付け力指令値と比較して、両者の力偏差に基づいた適正な押し付け力を発生するように1軸直動機構35の位置を補正する駆動信号を発生し、1軸直動機構35を駆動して所定の押し付け力の下で所定量の掘り込みを行う。
仕上げ加工を繰り返し行って最終的に目標位置に達して加工必要量がゼロになったときには、押し付け力指令値もゼロになるので、目標位置を越えて削り込むことはない。
【0020】
ワーク形状計測装置4は、各種の外形計測装置を利用することができるが、本実施例ではレーザ変位計を利用した計測装置を使用した。
レーザ変位計を梁に固定しておいて、加工位置決め装置2で把持したワークをレーザ変位計の下方で移動させながらワークの断面形状を計測する。
データ記憶装置5は、特にワークの設計形状を記憶する。また、ここに、加工条件を決定するために使用するパラメータ値を記憶しておいてもよい。
【0021】
図3は、本実施例における自動仕上げ加工の処理手順を示すフロー図である。
初めに、自動仕上げ装置1の加工位置決め装置2に取り付けられたワーク7の形状をワーク形状計測装置4により計測し(S11)、データ記憶装置5に格納しておいたワークの設計形状データを読み出して、計測した形状データに重ねて位置合わせをすることにより(S12)、加工位置決め装置2の把持部材21に固定した状態におけるワーク7の仕上げ最終形状を決定する。
【0022】
図4は計測形状と設計形状の位置合わせの概念を説明する概念図、図5は位置合わせの手順を説明する手順図、図6は位置合わせの手順のフロー図である。
本実施例で加工するワーク7は、たとえばタービンノズルである。タービンノズルは、長手方向に適当な間隔で複数の垂直な断面形状が製品における設計断面形状としてデータ記憶装置5に格納されている。
ワーク7の長手方向がX軸方向となるように把持部材21にワーク7を取り付ける。そして、設計断面を決めた各基準断面D1〜Dnの位置に相当するところでワークの断面形状を計測して、加工前の断面形状を取得する。
【0023】
計測した断面のうち、適当な基準断面Dを選択して(S21)、その断面上で計測形状と設計形状の位置合わせを行う(S22)。
設計形状Fと計測形状Mの位置合わせは、図5で説明するように、断面形状の輪郭上の特徴点を利用して行う。
まず、設計断面形状Fの輪郭上の特徴点Pを2個抽出して利用する。特徴点の1例として、ここでは、仕上げ対象物の輪郭形状の特性に鑑みて、凹側変曲点を第1の特徴点P1とし、端点を第2の特徴点P2とする(図5(a))。
【0024】
次に、計測断面形状Mにおいて、第1特徴点に対応する適当な点を選定し第1候補点Q1とし、第1特徴点P1と第2特徴点P2の距離Lと同じ距離だけ離れた輪郭上の位置に第2候補点Q2をとる(図5(b))。
第1候補点Q1と第2候補点Q2に第1特徴点P1と第2特徴点P2をそれぞれ合わせて、計測断面形状Mに設計断面形状Fを重ね合わせる(図5(c))。
【0025】
設計断面形状Fを候補点Q1,Q2を結ぶ直線に垂直な方向にずらして(図5(d))、設計断面形状Fと計測断面形状Mの間にできる余肉の分布状態を定量的に評価し、余肉が輪郭全周にわたって平均化するようにする。
また、余肉の分布状態は、輪郭全周にわたる2乗平均値、最小値と最大値の差など、よく知られた統計学的手法により評価することができる。
【0026】
さらに、第1候補点Q1を計測断面形状Mの輪郭に沿って適当量移動し、上記の方法により第2候補点Q2を決め(図5(e))、特徴点を候補点に重ね合わせて、候補点を結ぶ直線に対して垂直な方向に設計断面形状Fを適当量ずらして、余肉量が均等化するようにして、余肉量の分布状態の定量的評価をする。
こうして少しずつ移動しながら、計測断面形状Mの内部において、余肉量が最も均等に分布する位置を探索して設計断面形状Fを配置する(図5(f))(S23)。なおこのとき、設計断面形状Fが計測断面形状Mに包含されるように配置しなければならない。
【0027】
次に、上記の位置に設計断面形状Fを配置したときの他の基準断面における余肉分布を算定して、ワーク全体についての余肉分布状態を評価する。
さらに、基準断面Dを他のものに換えて、同様の手順を繰り返し、その基準断面において余肉量が均等化する位置に設計断面形状Fを配置したときのワーク全体の余肉量分布状態を評価し、余肉量が最も均等化する位置を最終的な設計断面形状Fの位置として決定する(S25)。このとき、ワーク全体にわたって設計断面形状Fが計測断面形状Mに包含されるように配置しなければならない。
【0028】
こうして決定された測定断面形状M内の設計断面形状Fの輪郭が仕上げ後の製品外形形状となり、算定された余肉は仕上げ研削加工における必要加工量となる(S13)。各基準断面に含まれない中間の位置における必要加工量は、各基準断面における必要加工量から補間により求めることができる。
仕上げ工具31の回転軸を加工面に平行になるように配置して仕上げ加工をするので、余肉Δは、図7に示すように基準断面内で設計断面形状Fの輪郭に垂直な方向に評価することが好ましい。必要加工量は、設計断面形状Fの輪郭上に立てられた垂線の方向を持ち、計測断面形状Mまでの距離を長さとするベクトルで表すことができる。
【0029】
なお、初めに選択した基準断面Dにおいて設計断面形状の位置を決定するときに、他の基準断面における余肉量分布を同時に評価して、ワーク全体の余肉分布が最も均等化する位置をもって最適位置とするようにしてもよい。このようにすると、計算量が増加する場合もあるが、ひとつの基準断面でなくワーク全体における最適化を行うので、ワーク全体の余肉分布がより均等化するような配置をすることができる。
また、各基準断面について同様の演算を繰り返す代わりに、1個の基準断面において得られた設計断面形状位置の近傍を摂動してワーク全体の余肉分布が最も均等化する位置を探索するようにしてもよい。この方法では、演算量が小さくなり、迅速に比較的妥当な位置を決定することができる。
【0030】
算出された必要加工量に基づいて、各加工位置における加工位置決め装置2の位置決め動作データを算出する(S14)。
力制御式研削装置3は、加工具31が押し付けられた方向の逆方向に逃げる機構35を備え、さらに、押し付け力制御装置により加工押し付け力が逃げ量に対応するように制御されている。また、上記手順により、加工位置決め装置に把持された状態におけるワークの計測形状と計測形状内における最終仕上げ形状が与えられている。
そこで、加工位置決め装置2が把持したワークを、ワーク内に設定した設計断面形状の輪郭における垂線が固定設置された力制御式研削装置3の加工具31の加工面に向くようにし、かつ、加工具31と最終仕上げ形状表面が接する位置に来るようにワーク7の位置と姿勢を調整する。
【0031】
たとえば、加工位置ごとに、垂線の傾きを把持部材21の回転軸の傾きαとし、設計断面形状Fの輪郭が加工具31に接するようにX,Y,Z方向の座標を決める。
また、幅を持ったベルトを使用したベルト式研削装置を用いて仕上げ加工をするときは、仕上げ加工具31の作用面とワーク7が線接触するので、仕上げ面が長手方向に曲面を有するときには、表面に段差ができないようにワーク7の表面が加工具31の作用面に平行になるように把持したワーク7の向きを調整する必要がある。
【0032】
図8は、θ軸を用いた場合の調整量算定方法を説明する図面である。
設計断面形状Mの基準断面Dにおける点P1tにおける表面の方向は、点P1tに立てた垂線nを含み基準断面に対して垂直な面Sが、隣接する基準断面における設計断面形状と交わる点P2tと点P1tを結ぶ直線P1tP2tの傾きθとすることができる。この直線の傾きθをZ軸周りの回転軸θ軸の動作量として加工すると段差が生じない。
このように、ワークの位置決め動作は、XYZの直交3軸とX軸周りの回転軸α軸、Z軸周りの回転軸θ軸の5自由度で行うことができる。
【0033】
次に、ワーク材質、工具の種類、使用状況などのデータを記憶装置から読み出し、先に算出された必要加工量に基づいて、各加工位置における力制御式研削装置3の押し付け力指令値、仕上げ加工繰り返し回数などの加工条件を算定する(S15)。
こうして決定された加工位置決め装置2の位置姿勢指令値と力制御式研削装置3の加工条件に従って、ワーク7を加工具31に当てながら軸の周りに1周させる。次に加工具31がワーク7の新しい加工部分に当たるように加工具31の幅より小さい刻み幅だけワーク7を長手方向にずらして同じように1周させて仕上げ加工する。このように所定の刻み幅ずつずらしては研削加工を繰り返すことによりワーク7の全周にわたって仕上げ加工を施す。
なお、必要加工量がゼロのときに力制御式研削装置3の押し付け力がゼロになるように構成したときは、仕上げ加工中に余肉が無い部分に研削加工具31が当たっても押し付け力がないため、設計断面形状以上に掘り込まれない。
【0034】
さらに全周にわたる仕上げ加工を、先に算定された回数だけ繰り返して完成させる(S16)。
加工後に、ワーク7の外形をワーク形状計測装置4を用いて再度測定し(S17)、余肉量を算出して(S18)、余肉量が要求される加工精度内に収まっていることを確認する(S19)。
余肉量が所定の範囲以内に収まっていないときは、新しい余肉状態について再度加工条件を算定して、ワーク7の形状が最終仕上げ形状になるまで仕上げ加工を繰り返してワークを仕上げる。
本実施例の装置は、タービンブレードやプロペラなど他の種類の大型部材の仕上げ作業について自動化する場合にも適用することができる。
【0035】
なお、Z軸まわりの回転動作θの機構を研削装置3に搭載してもよい。加工位置決め装置2の動作軸を4個に減少させることにより、さらに剛性を向上させて加工精度の向上を図ることができる。
また、実施例では加工位置決め装置と力制御式研削装置が1基ずつ対応して設けられているが、たとえば図9に示すように、荒仕上げから最終仕上げまで、それぞれ異なる加工工具を搭載した複数の研削仕上げ装置を並べて設置し、加工位置決め装置を移動して仕上げ程度を適宜選択して加工するようにしてもよい。また、図10に示したように、複数の研削装置を加工位置決め装置を取り囲むように配置して、加工位置決め装置が回転して異なる研削装置にワークを当てることができるようにしてもよい。
このように構成された装置では、加工位置決め装置と各研削装置の間に相対位置関係は共通するため、加工位置決め装置の各軸動作量は1個の研削装置に対する動作量にそれぞれの研削装置に関する補正を施せば足りるので動作量の算定は極めて容易である。
【0036】

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a surface finishing method and apparatus, and more particularly to a finishing method and apparatus for a large casting product having a complicated curved surface shape such as a large turbine blade.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, a finishing process requiring high accuracy of a workpiece having a large and complicated curved surface shape such as a large turbine blade has been manually performed. In manual finishing work, there are many ways to finish the work surface by bringing the surface of the work into line contact with a belt-type finishing device. Finishing the work by alternately repeating grinding work and work finish status check work by gauge alignment. Yes.
[0003]
The work finish state is checked by using the reference gauge created for each reference cross section, and the work of aligning the work surface with the reference gauge for each reference cross section is repeated many times according to the progress of grinding. It has become.
In addition, it is necessary to adjust the next grinding process against the reference gauge, and quickly and accurately measure which part has how much finishing allowance, and optimal grinding conditions such as workpiece position / posture and machining force It takes considerable skill to select.
Furthermore, when a large workpiece is targeted, the physical burden on the operator is large.
For this reason, automation of finishing work is strongly demanded.
[0004]
However, in order to automate the finishing work of large workpieces, three-dimensional positioning and posture determination between a heavy workpiece and a processing tool must be performed with high accuracy. In particular, in order to automatically finish turbine blades with complex curved surfaces such as irregularities and twists, an advanced machining positioning device that has appropriate rigidity and can be positioned accurately and does not change position during machining is required. is there. Further, since the positioning mechanism and its operation data are complicated, an arithmetic device having an advanced operation control function and an advanced arithmetic function is required.
Therefore, since the production cost and the maintenance cost when introducing the automation equipment provided with such an apparatus become large, it is hardly put into practical use at present.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Therefore, the problem to be solved by the present invention is a method and a method for performing high-precision automatic finishing on a workpiece having a large and complicated shape such as a turbine blade by a simpler apparatus configuration and simpler operation control. It is providing the apparatus which implements.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above problems, the automatic finishing method of the present invention measures the cross-sectional shape of the workpiece to be finished, calculates the difference between the cross-sectional shape obtained by measurement and the design value of the work finish shape, and sets it as the required machining amount. The method further comprises a workpiece position adjusting step for aligning the workpiece so that the required machining amount existing on the workpiece surface is distributed and equalized over the entire workpiece surface.
[0007]
According to the automatic finishing method of the present invention, from the information on the required machining amount obtained by aligning the design shape and the measurement shape that should be the final shape of the workpiece, in the direction in which the machining tool matches the final shape surface of the workpiece. Since the operation of the processing tool is controlled, the control algorithm relating to the workpiece position and orientation and the processing tool position adjustment is simple, and the change depending on the situation is reduced, and the processing amount and the control amount calculation load can be reduced.
In addition, since the position and orientation of the workpiece with respect to the processing tool can be adjusted so that the processing amount is evenly distributed, the number of times of grinding processing is reduced and the processing efficiency is improved.
[0008]
In the workpiece position adjusting step, first and second feature points are set on the contour of the design shape, and first corresponding feature points corresponding to the first feature point of the design shape are set on the measured contour of the workpiece cross-sectional shape. And determining a second corresponding feature point separated from the first corresponding feature point by a distance between the first feature point and the second feature point on the contour of the measurement cross-sectional shape, and determining the first feature point as the first corresponding feature point. Are placed so that the straight line connecting the first corresponding feature point and the second corresponding feature point overlaps the straight line connecting the first feature point and the second feature point, and the design shape is moved in a direction perpendicular to the straight line. Thus, the required machining amount can be equalized by disposing the deviation between the design shape and the measured cross-sectional shape, that is, the position where the surplus of the measured cross-sectional shape is dispersed and equalized over the entire circumference.
[0009]
When equalization is not enough, move the design shape in the direction perpendicular to the straight line as above and move the design shape in the direction perpendicular to the straight line after moving the position of the first corresponding feature point along the contour of the measurement cross-sectional shape. It is possible to evaluate the surplus dispersion state at the position to be converted, repeat the evaluation of the surplus dispersion state by moving the first corresponding feature point, and find the position where the surplus is most averaged. it can.
The average of the surplus can be obtained by a high-level calculation such as the least square mean value of the deviation over the entire circumference of the contour, but the surplus is the most at the point where the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value is minimum. Even if the processing is simplified by assuming that the positions are averaged, there is no problem in finishing.
[0010]
When calculating the amount of surplus, it is preferable to measure in the direction normal to the design shape contour. This is because when the grinding tool is pressed perpendicularly to the workpiece surface for processing, the calculated required processing amount matches the processing direction of the grinding tool. However, when the design shape is determined as a parallel plane with an appropriate interval, the calculation is simplified if the workpiece cross-sectional shape is measured in the plane and the amount of surplus is calculated in the direction perpendicular to the design shape contour. .
By using the procedure of the present invention, the required machining amount can be equalized quickly and always in the same procedure using simple logic.
[0011]
In addition, the finishing tool has a relief mechanism that can escape in a predetermined direction and generate a pressing force corresponding to the amount of relief, so that the original position when the machining tool does not escape is on the surface of the finished shape of the workpiece. It is preferable to perform finishing so as to be positioned.
If the finishing tool is equipped with a relief mechanism so that the processing tool is fixed and the position and orientation of the workpiece surface are adjusted, for example, the surface position of the final shape of the workpiece is set at the position before the machining tool escapes. Since it is sufficient to operate so as to match, it is not necessary to form different data again each time the grinding process is repeated, and the operation amount data of the positioning device is simplified.
[0012]
Also, if the required amount of machining is large, the pressing force will increase. If the required amount of processing is zero, the pressing force will be zero according to the required amount of processing. Therefore, even if there is a large or small difference in the equalized required machining amount, it can be absorbed, and even if there is a part that matches the design shape before it is finished, that part will not be ground, so it will be finished in the correct shape be able to.
Also, even when performing multiple finishes that differ from rough grinding to final finish grinding, once the processing positioning operation amount is calculated for the workpiece, by relatively simple operation amount correction for each grinding tool, These finishing processes can be performed sequentially, and automation of these finishing processes is also easy.
[0013]
In order to carry out the finishing method, the automatic finishing apparatus of the present invention includes a processing positioning device, a grinding device, a workpiece shape measuring device, a data storage device, and a control device. Among these, the processing positioning device grips the workpiece at the tip and adjusts the position and posture of the workpiece in accordance with instructions from the control device. In addition, the grinding device includes a finishing tool at the tip for grinding the surface by hitting the surface of the workpiece. The finishing tool can be moved in a predetermined direction, and the pressing force of the finishing tool can be adjusted according to the amount of movement. The workpiece shape measuring device measures the outer shape of the workpiece, and the data storage device stores the final finished shape of the workpiece. Further, the control device compares the outer shape of the workpiece and the final finished shape, searches for a position where the deviation is distributed over the entire workpiece surface and equalized, and instructs the machining positioning device to adjust the position and posture of the workpiece.
[0014]
The machining positioning device can adjust the position and orientation of the workpiece so that the working surface of the finishing tool hits from the normal direction of the workpiece surface whenever the three orthogonal axes and the three rotation axes can be driven. However, in the apparatus of the present invention, since it is premised that the workpiece surface is brought into line contact with the finishing tool, it is not necessary to rotate the workpiece axis during machining. It is possible to have five degrees of freedom of the axis and the two rotation axes. If the number of operating axes is reduced by reducing the degree of freedom of the device, the rigidity of the device is improved, so that the positioning accuracy of each axis is improved, and the device manufacturing cost and the maintenance cost can be reduced to make an economical device. .
[0015]
The relief mechanism of the grinding apparatus can be constituted by a uniaxial linear motion mechanism equipped with a portion that supports the finishing tool. The single-axis linear motion mechanism moves the finishing tool in a direction that changes the distance to the workpiece surface. Further, the finishing tool may be provided with a force sensor for measuring the pressing force so that the feedback control of the movement amount can be performed.
The finishing tool may be a grinding belt, supported by a plurality of rollers, and rotated by a belt rotation motor.
In addition, a plurality of grinding devices can be provided so that a grinding device for applying a workpiece can be selected by the work positioning device, so that any finishing state can be achieved, and the finishing state can be improved sequentially from rough finishing to final finishing. You may do it.
[0016]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the finishing apparatus for large workpieces of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings based on one embodiment.
FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram of the automatic finishing apparatus of this embodiment.
The automatic finishing device 1 of the present embodiment includes a machining positioning device 2, a belt-type finishing tool 31, a force-controlled grinding device 3 having a pressing force control mechanism, a workpiece shape measuring device 4, a data storage device 5, and controls these. The control device 6 is provided.
[0017]
The processing positioning device 2 grips the workpiece 7 with the gripping member 21 at the tip and presses it against the finishing tool 31, and includes a translation mechanism having three degrees of freedom of the X axis, the Y axis, and the Z axis, and a vertical Z axis in the figure. It has two rotation axes, a θ rotation axis around and an α rotation axis around the X axis parallel to the paper surface. Therefore, if the workpiece 7 is set with careful attention to the axial direction while being sandwiched in the longitudinal direction, the finishing tool 31 can be brought into substantially vertical contact with the surface at an arbitrary surface position.
The θ rotation axis is used to align the surface inclination with the finished tool surface in accordance with the curved surface shape of the workpiece.
[0018]
The force-controlled grinding device 3 includes a belt-type finishing tool 31, a roller 32 that stretches the grinding belt of the finishing tool, a motor 33 that rotates the belt, and a force sensor 34 that measures the pressing force applied to the finishing tool 31. These are equipped with a uniaxial linear motion mechanism 35 that moves them in a uniaxial direction.
The number of finish grindings and the grinding thickness at the time of grinding are determined according to the deviation between the measured shape and the design shape, that is, the surplus amount of the workpiece, the workpiece material, the type of tool, the usage status of the tool, and the like.
[0019]
The finishing tool 31 includes a force sensor 34 and a feedback control mechanism that adjusts the driving amount by taking in the detection output of the force sensor. FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating this feedback control mechanism.
When there is a portion Δ that requires machining on the surface of the workpiece 7 on which the tool 31 acts, the uniaxial linear motion mechanism 35 moves the machining device backward by an amount that is not obstructed by the necessary machining portion Δ and cannot escape. The digging amount is determined based on the positional deviation amount Δ between the tool position and the final target position at this time, and a pressing force corresponding to this is calculated to generate a pressing force command value. The single-axis linear motion mechanism is configured so that the pressing force actually generated by the tool 31 is detected by the force sensor 34 and compared with the pressing force command value so as to generate an appropriate pressing force based on the force deviation between the two. A drive signal for correcting the position of 35 is generated, and the uniaxial linear motion mechanism 35 is driven to dig a predetermined amount under a predetermined pressing force.
When the finishing process is repeatedly performed and finally the target position is reached and the required machining amount becomes zero, the pressing force command value also becomes zero, so that the workpiece is not cut beyond the target position.
[0020]
As the workpiece shape measuring device 4, various types of outer shape measuring devices can be used, but in this embodiment, a measuring device using a laser displacement meter is used.
The laser displacement meter is fixed to the beam, and the cross-sectional shape of the workpiece is measured while the workpiece gripped by the machining positioning device 2 is moved below the laser displacement meter.
The data storage device 5 particularly stores the design shape of the workpiece. Also, parameter values used for determining the processing conditions may be stored here.
[0021]
FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the processing procedure of automatic finishing in the present embodiment.
First, the shape of the workpiece 7 attached to the machining positioning device 2 of the automatic finishing device 1 is measured by the workpiece shape measuring device 4 (S11), and the design shape data of the workpiece stored in the data storage device 5 is read out. Then, the final shape of the workpiece 7 in a state in which the workpiece 7 is fixed to the gripping member 21 of the processing positioning device 2 is determined by aligning the measured shape data with each other (S12).
[0022]
FIG. 4 is a conceptual diagram for explaining the concept of alignment between the measurement shape and the design shape, FIG. 5 is a procedure diagram for explaining the alignment procedure, and FIG. 6 is a flowchart of the alignment procedure.
The workpiece 7 processed in the present embodiment is, for example, a turbine nozzle. The turbine nozzle has a plurality of vertical cross-sectional shapes stored at appropriate intervals in the longitudinal direction in the data storage device 5 as design cross-sectional shapes in the product.
The workpiece 7 is attached to the gripping member 21 so that the longitudinal direction of the workpiece 7 is the X-axis direction. And the cross-sectional shape of a workpiece | work is measured in the location corresponded to the position of each reference | standard cross section D1-Dn which determined the design cross section, and cross-sectional shape before a process is acquired.
[0023]
Among the measured cross sections, an appropriate reference cross section D is selected (S21), and the measurement shape and the design shape are aligned on the cross section (S22).
The positioning of the design shape F and the measurement shape M is performed using feature points on the outline of the cross-sectional shape, as will be described with reference to FIG.
First, two feature points P on the contour of the design cross-sectional shape F are extracted and used. As an example of the feature points, here, in consideration of the characteristics of the contour shape of the finished object, the concave inflection point is the first feature point P1, and the end point is the second feature point P2 (FIG. 5 ( a)).
[0024]
Next, in the measurement cross-sectional shape M, an appropriate point corresponding to the first feature point is selected as the first candidate point Q1, and the contour is separated by the same distance as the distance L between the first feature point P1 and the second feature point P2. The second candidate point Q2 is taken at the upper position (FIG. 5B).
The first feature point P1 and the second feature point P2 are aligned with the first candidate point Q1 and the second candidate point Q2, respectively, and the design sectional shape F is superimposed on the measured sectional shape M (FIG. 5C).
[0025]
The design cross-sectional shape F is shifted in the direction perpendicular to the straight line connecting the candidate points Q1 and Q2 (FIG. 5D) to quantitatively determine the distribution of surplus space between the design cross-sectional shape F and the measured cross-sectional shape M. Evaluate and ensure that the surplus is averaged over the entire contour.
Further, the distribution state of surplus can be evaluated by a well-known statistical method such as a mean square value over the entire contour and a difference between the minimum value and the maximum value.
[0026]
Further, the first candidate point Q1 is moved by an appropriate amount along the contour of the measurement cross-sectional shape M, the second candidate point Q2 is determined by the above method (FIG. 5 (e)), and the feature point is superimposed on the candidate point. The design cross-sectional shape F is shifted by an appropriate amount in a direction perpendicular to the straight line connecting the candidate points so that the surplus amount is equalized, and the surplus amount distribution state is quantitatively evaluated.
While moving little by little in this manner, the design cross-sectional shape F is arranged by searching the position where the surplus amount is most evenly distributed within the measured cross-sectional shape M (FIG. 5 (f)) (S23). At this time, the design sectional shape F must be arranged so as to be included in the measured sectional shape M.
[0027]
Next, the surplus distribution in another reference cross section when the design cross-sectional shape F is arranged at the above position is calculated, and the surplus distribution state of the entire workpiece is evaluated.
Furthermore, the reference section D is changed to another one, the same procedure is repeated, and the surplus amount distribution state of the entire workpiece when the design cross-sectional shape F is arranged at the position where the surplus amount is equalized in the reference section. The position where the surplus amount is equalized is determined as the position of the final design cross-sectional shape F (S25). At this time, the design cross-sectional shape F must be arranged so as to be included in the measurement cross-sectional shape M over the entire workpiece.
[0028]
The contour of the design cross-sectional shape F in the measured cross-sectional shape M determined in this way becomes the finished product outer shape, and the calculated surplus becomes the necessary processing amount in the finish grinding (S13). The required machining amount at an intermediate position not included in each reference cross section can be obtained by interpolation from the necessary machining amounts in each reference cross section.
Since the finishing tool 31 is arranged so that the rotation axis of the finishing tool 31 is parallel to the machining surface, the surplus thickness Δ is in a direction perpendicular to the contour of the design sectional shape F in the reference section as shown in FIG. It is preferable to evaluate. The required machining amount can be expressed by a vector having a direction of a perpendicular line set on the contour of the design cross-sectional shape F and having a distance to the measurement cross-sectional shape M as a length.
[0029]
When determining the position of the design cross-sectional shape in the initially selected reference cross-section D, the surplus amount distribution in other reference cross-sections is evaluated at the same time, and the position where the surplus distribution of the entire workpiece is most equalized is optimal. You may make it be a position. In this case, although the amount of calculation may increase, optimization is performed not for one reference cross section but for the entire workpiece, so that an arrangement can be made such that the surplus distribution of the entire workpiece is more even.
Also, instead of repeating the same calculation for each reference cross section, the vicinity of the design cross section shape position obtained in one reference cross section is perturbed to search for the position where the surplus distribution of the entire workpiece is most even. May be. In this method, the amount of calculation is reduced, and a relatively appropriate position can be quickly determined.
[0030]
Based on the calculated required machining amount, positioning operation data of the machining positioning device 2 at each machining position is calculated (S14).
The force-control grinding device 3 includes a mechanism 35 that escapes in a direction opposite to the direction in which the processing tool 31 is pressed, and is further controlled by the pressing force control device so that the processing pressing force corresponds to the escape amount. Moreover, the measurement shape of the workpiece | work in the state hold | gripped by the process positioning apparatus and the final finishing shape in a measurement shape are given by the said procedure.
Therefore, the workpiece gripped by the machining positioning device 2 is made to face the machining surface of the machining tool 31 of the force-controlled grinding device 3 in which the perpendicular line in the contour of the design cross-sectional shape set in the workpiece is fixed and added. The position and posture of the work 7 are adjusted so that the tool 31 and the final finished shape surface come into contact with each other.
[0031]
For example, for each processing position, the inclination of the perpendicular is the inclination α of the rotation axis of the gripping member 21, and the coordinates in the X, Y, and Z directions are determined so that the contour of the design cross-sectional shape F contacts the processing tool 31.
When finishing using a belt-type grinding apparatus using a belt having a width, the working surface of the finishing tool 31 and the work 7 are in line contact with each other. Therefore, when the finished surface has a curved surface in the longitudinal direction. It is necessary to adjust the orientation of the gripped work 7 so that the surface of the work 7 is parallel to the working surface of the processing tool 31 so that there is no step on the surface.
[0032]
FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining an adjustment amount calculation method when the θ-axis is used.
The direction of the surface at the point P1t in the reference cross section D of the design cross-sectional shape M is the point P2t at which the plane S including the perpendicular n standing at the point P1t and perpendicular to the reference cross-section intersects the design cross-sectional shape in the adjacent reference cross section. The inclination θ of the straight line P1tP2t connecting the points P1t can be set. If the inclination θ of the straight line is processed as an operation amount of the rotation axis θ around the Z axis, no step is generated.
In this manner, the workpiece positioning operation can be performed with five degrees of freedom of the three orthogonal axes of XYZ, the rotation axis α axis around the X axis, and the rotation axis θ axis around the Z axis.
[0033]
Next, data such as workpiece material, tool type, usage status, etc. are read from the storage device, and based on the previously calculated required machining amount, the pressing force command value of the force-controlled grinding device 3 at each machining position, finishing Processing conditions such as the number of processing repetitions are calculated (S15).
In accordance with the position / orientation command value of the machining positioning device 2 determined in this way and the machining conditions of the force-controlled grinding device 3, the workpiece 7 is rotated once around the axis while being applied to the machining tool 31. Next, the work 7 is shifted in the longitudinal direction by a step width smaller than the width of the work tool 31 so that the work tool 31 hits a new processed portion of the work 7 and finished in the same way. In this way, the finishing process is performed over the entire circumference of the workpiece 7 by repeating the grinding process while shifting by a predetermined step size.
When the force control grinding device 3 is configured so that the pressing force is zero when the required processing amount is zero, the pressing force is applied even if the grinding tool 31 hits a portion where there is no surplus during finishing. Because there is no, it is not dug more than the design cross-sectional shape.
[0034]
Further, the finishing process over the entire circumference is repeated by the number of times calculated previously (S16).
After machining, the external shape of the workpiece 7 is measured again using the workpiece shape measuring device 4 (S17), the surplus amount is calculated (S18), and the surplus amount is within the required machining accuracy. Confirm (S19).
When the amount of surplus is not within the predetermined range, the processing conditions are calculated again for the new surplus state, and the finish is repeated until the shape of the work 7 becomes the final finish shape to finish the work.
The apparatus of the present embodiment can also be applied when automating finishing operations of other types of large-sized members such as turbine blades and propellers.
[0035]
Note that a mechanism of the rotational motion θ around the Z axis may be mounted on the grinding apparatus 3. By reducing the number of operation axes of the processing positioning device 2 to four, the rigidity can be further improved and the processing accuracy can be improved.
Further, in the embodiment, the processing positioning device and the force control type grinding device are provided correspondingly one by one. For example, as shown in FIG. 9, a plurality of processing tools each equipped with different processing tools from rough finishing to final finishing are mounted. These grinding finishing apparatuses may be installed side by side, and the machining positioning apparatus may be moved to appropriately select the finishing degree for machining. Further, as shown in FIG. 10, a plurality of grinding devices may be arranged so as to surround the processing positioning device so that the processing positioning device can rotate so that the workpiece can be applied to different grinding devices.
In the apparatus configured as described above, since the relative positional relationship is common between the machining positioning device and each grinding device, each axis movement amount of the machining positioning device is related to the amount of movement with respect to one grinding device. Since it suffices to make corrections, it is very easy to calculate the amount of motion.
[0036]
