Description

Robot joint torque sensor and torque measurement method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a robot joint torque sensor and a torque measurement method thereof, belonging to the technical field of sensors.
Background
The cooperative robot is an important research direction of the mechanical arm, and can be in flexible and safe contact with the outside through a force control function. For the robot adopting the high reduction ratio reduction gearbox, the external force is not easy to accurately sense due to the friction damping influence of the reduction gearbox, so that the force control is realized mainly by adopting a scheme of adding a force sensor in more scenes. The torque of each joint can be sensed by adopting the joint force sensor, and the flexible control and force control functions of each joint can be realized by combining a control algorithm.
The force sensor usually detects the external force by detecting the deformation of the elastic body, and for the force sensor with higher rigidity, a strain measurement mode is adopted. The force sensor reduces joint stiffness while ensuring a high sensitivity in force sensing applications. Stiffness and sensitivity are often a set of conflicting parameters, and for the same sensor solution, stiffness increases and then tends to decrease sensitivity. In addition, the joint itself is subjected to forces and moment loads of five degrees of freedom in addition to torsional loads, which may cause the force sensor to output erroneous torque information, known as crosstalk. To reduce the effects of crosstalk while increasing joint stiffness, crossed roller bearings are typically used to support the force sensors. However, when the robot joint adopts other speed reducers except the harmonic speed reducer, the joint structure is complicated and the weight is heavier due to the additional crossed roller bearings.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the invention, but not all embodiments, and all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts based on the embodiments of the present invention are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
A robot joint torque sensor and a torque measuring method thereof adopt a strain measuring principle, and comprise a joint connecting flange 1, a fixed flange 3, four strain beams 2 and four V-shaped strain gauges 5; the fixed flange 3 is connected with the robot body so as to measure the torque load of the external force on the robot joint, four strain beams 2 are uniformly distributed at the upper end of the fixed flange 3 along the circumferential direction of the fixed flange, each strain beam 2 comprises a strain surface 6 and two support columns 7, the strain surface 6 is fixedly arranged between the two support columns 7, each strain surface 6 is provided with a V-shaped strain gauge 5, each V-shaped strain gauge 5 comprises two strain gauges which are vertically and symmetrically arranged in the 45-degree direction, and the V-shaped strain gauge 5 is used for detecting the micro strain of the strain beam 2 so as to realize the measurement of the torque; a joint connecting flange 1 is arranged between the top ends of two support columns 7 of each two adjacent strain beams 2, and the two support columns are connected with a robot joint through the joint connecting flange 1; the two strain beams 2 corresponding to the same diameter are a group of full-bridge strain beams, and the two V-shaped strain gauges 5 corresponding to the same diameter are a Wheatstone full-bridge circuit, as shown in FIG. 5. Setting E as power supply voltage, E o as output voltage signal, amplifying the output voltage signal, collecting by analog-to-digital conversion circuit, and multiplying by corresponding coefficient to obtain the torque of sensor, wherein the specific coefficient and the sensitivity coefficient of strain gauge are related to circuit amplification factor and actual calibration result. Through the Wheatstone full bridge circuit, crosstalk errors can be effectively reduced. The four groups of strain beams 2 can form two groups of full-bridge strains, namely two signal data can be obtained, crosstalk experiments are respectively carried out on the two groups of full-bridge strains, and the weighted average of the two groups of signal data is taken as final data according to experimental results. The crosstalk error and torque ripple can be further reduced by a weighted average of the two sets of full-bridge data.
Four groups of supporting beams 4 are uniformly distributed between the joint connecting flange 1 and the fixing flange 3 along the circumferential direction of the fixing flange 3, the four groups of supporting beams 4 and the four strain beams 2 are alternately arranged along the circumferential direction of the fixing flange 3 one by one, each group of supporting beams 4 comprises a plurality of supporting beams 4 with gaps between the supporting beams, the arrangement of the supporting beams 4 can improve the rigidity and the strength of the support, and the support rigidity and the strength of the support are better under the condition of no bearing support; in addition, since the deformation of the support beam 4 is more sensitive to torsional loads, the measurement of torsion is not affected, while providing good support in the non-torsion direction, low crosstalk can be further ensured. The support beams 4 may or may not be uniformly distributed.
The outer wall of the strain surface 6 and the outer wall of the fixed flange 3 are arranged in the same diameter, and the vertical structure is adopted, so that the distance between the strain surface 6 and the axis is as far as possible, and the sensitivity can be improved.
Gaps exist between the support columns 7 and the corresponding support beams 4, and the support beams 4 and the strain body 2 are not in contact, so that crosstalk errors are reduced.
By adjusting the thickness of the strain face 6 and the width of the support beam 4, the sensitivity and stiffness of the sensor can be adjusted. The relationship between sensitivity and rigidity can be further adjusted by adjusting the number and distribution of the support beams 4 under the condition that the total width of the support beams 4 is unchanged.
The V-shaped strain gauge 5 is arranged on the inner wall or the outer wall of the corresponding strain surface 6.
The invention relates to a torque measuring method of a robot joint torque sensor, which comprises the following steps:
s1: solving two output voltage signals of two groups of Wheatstone full-bridge circuits />
S101: according to the output principle of the Wheatstone full-bridge circuit, the output voltage signal of the strain gauge of one of the Wheatstone full-bridge circuits is set as follows:
In the formula (1):
e o is the output voltage signal;
E is the power supply voltage;
R n is the resistance of the corresponding strain gauge in the wheatstone full bridge circuit, n=1 to 4;
S102: setting the initial resistance of one strain gauge as R i, preferably R i =350Ω, defining the resistance increment of each strain gauge due to strain as R d, and obtaining the actual resistance R of each single strain gauge as:
Rn=Rdn+Rin,n=1~4 (2)
bringing equation (2) into equation (1) yields an output voltage signal of:
taking R i1=Ri2=Ri3=Ri4 =r, the relationship between the output voltage and the actual resistance change can be obtained:
Neglecting high order errors, and simplifying to obtain:
The characteristics of the strain gage resistance in response to strain are considered as follows:
in formula (6):
K s is the sensitivity system of the strain gauge;
epsilon is the strain produced on the strain gauge;
the method further comprises the following steps:
in the formula (7):
Epsilon n is the strain generated on the corresponding strain gauge, n=1 to 4;
When a torque load M s around the z-axis is loaded, there is ε 1=-ε2=ε3=-ε4 =ε, when it is available:
eo=EKsε (8)
When subjected to bending moment load, axial load or radial load, e o =0, thereby reducing crosstalk.
S2: two output voltage signals of two groups of Wheatstone full bridge circuits/>Amplifying and analog-to-digital conversion are carried out, the amplification factor is the same as the conversion resolution, two digital signals D A and D B output by the two groups of Wheatstone full-bridge circuits are obtained, and the two digital signals D A and D B are used as output data;
in practice, the output data of the wheatstone full-bridge circuit cannot perfectly eliminate the crosstalk effect, and due to the reasons of installation asymmetry, resistance error of strain gauges and the like, components caused by crosstalk loads are still included in the output data of the two sets of wheatstone full-bridge circuits, so that in order to describe the effect, the output data can be decomposed into six components, and a linear relationship exists between the output data corresponding to each load and the load.
S3: calibrating the sensor;
S4: the sensor is loaded with independent bending moment load, axial load or radial load respectively, output data corresponding to two groups of Wheatstone full-bridge circuits are recorded, and after zero offset is corrected respectively, corresponding linear coefficients are fitted, namely: the load output coefficient K, the formula (9) is the linear coefficient of six loads corresponding to the output data of two groups of Wheatstone full bridge circuits:
In the formula (9):
m x is the bending moment load about the x-axis;
M y is the moment load about the y-axis;
M z is the torque load about the z-axis;
F x is the radial load along the x-axis;
f y is the radial load along the y-axis;
F z is the axial load;
k is the load output coefficient of the corresponding digital signal and the corresponding load;
because the sensor bears six loads simultaneously, the real output data of the two groups of Wheatstone full-bridge circuits after zero offset is eliminated is as follows:
If the two Wheatstone full-bridge circuits only have data about the torque load of the z-axis and the other two are 0, the output data D A and D B of the two Wheatstone full-bridge circuits are the torque data to be measured. In an ideal state, the load output coefficients except the torque load output coefficient around the z-axis are close to 0 and are far smaller than the torque load output coefficient around the z-axis, and the torque load output coefficients around the z-axis of the two Wheatstone full bridge circuits are equal. However, in practice, the other load output coefficients than the torque load output coefficient around the z-axis are not 0 due to errors such as mounting errors, amplification circuit magnification errors, structural strain errors, and the like, and the torque load output coefficients around the z-axis of the two wheatstone full bridge circuits are not equal.
Therefore, in practice, since only the data of D A and D B and the respective load coefficients previously specified are available, the situation of the respective loads in the specific load is not known, and it is necessary to obtain torque measurement data as accurate as possible from the data of D A and D B.
S5: to obtain the final sensor measurement data, the average value of the output data of two Wheatstone full-bridge circuits is usually directly taken as the fused data in the prior art, namelyIn order to reduce the crosstalk of the finally output fused data, the invention defines a fusion coefficient as K m by using an output data fusion method of which the biaxial bending moment crosstalk is averaged and minimized as an index, and the fused data is as follows:
In order to determine K m, it is necessary to use the load output coefficients obtained in calibration, which are all measured under load in a single direction.
For the fused data output components corresponding to a single directional load, there are:
The coefficient represents the sensitivity degree of the two Wheatstone full-bridge circuits to each load independently, and the K m is expected to enable the sensitivity degree of the data fused by the two Wheatstone full-bridge circuits to crosstalk loads to be lower, and meanwhile, the sensitivity degrees of the two bending moment directions are preferably the same, so that the influence on control caused by different sensitivity degrees can be avoided.
Evaluating crosstalk with a ratio of a load factor of a load other than the torque load around the z-axis to a load factor of the torque load around the z-axis; the strain caused by force load is far smaller than the strain caused by bending moment load in practical application, so that the crosstalk caused by bending moment load is mainly considered in subsequent crosstalk evaluation. The crosstalk defining two bending moment loads is respectively:
Taking out The two solutions of the fusion coefficient obtained by solving are:
Substituting the two solutions into the formula (13) respectively to obtain two different resultant cross-talk of bending moment loads around the x-axis, comparing the two cross-talk, and obtaining a fusion coefficient with a small cross-talk value as a final fusion coefficient;
therefore, in the process of calibrating the torque sensor, the linear coefficients of six loads corresponding to data of two Wheatstone full-bridge circuit outputs are respectively and independently loaded, and the fusion coefficient K m is obtained by using the fusion method.
S6: the calibrated torque sensor obtains the torque load around the z-axis through the following steps:
