Detailed Description
In order to make the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention better understood and make the above objects, features and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified and limited, it should be noted that the term "connected" should be interpreted broadly, for example, as being mechanically or electrically connected, or as being interconnected between two elements, directly or indirectly through an intermediate medium, and the specific meaning of the term is understood by those skilled in the art according to the specific situation.
The thread structure looseness measuring device based on the distributed shape sensing can comprise a looseness measuring device corresponding to a thread structure, wherein the looseness measuring device comprises a spring and an optical fiber section, the optical fiber section is arranged on the spring along the trend of the spring, when the thread structure is loosened, the shape of the spring is correspondingly changed, and one end of the optical fiber section is used for receiving a measuring optical signal; and determining the shape change condition of the spring according to a reflected signal returned after the optical fiber section receives the measuring optical signal, thereby determining the loosening condition of the thread structure.
In this embodiment, when the thread structure becomes loose, the inclination direction of the spring changes synchronously with the change of the inclination direction of the thread structure, and as the loosening degree of the thread structure increases, the stretching or compressing degree of the spring also increases gradually. The determining the shape of the spring according to the reflected signal returned by the optical fiber segment after receiving the measuring optical signal, so as to determine the loosening condition of the thread structure, may include: measuring the shape of the spring based on a shape measurement principle according to a reflected signal returned after the optical fiber section receives the measuring optical signal; and comparing the shapes of the spring measured before and after the thread structure is loosened, calculating the shape distortion of the spring, and determining the loosening condition of the thread structure according to the shape distortion of the spring. Wherein, according to a reflected signal returned after the optical fiber section receives the measuring optical signal, measuring the shape of the spring based on a shape measurement principle comprises: according to the reflection signal, measuring the three-dimensional space coordinate set (x 1) of each point on the spring before the loosening of the thread structure based on the shape measurement principle i ,y1 i ,z1 i ) And the three-dimensional space coordinate set of each point on the spring after the thread structure is loosened is (x 2) i ,y2 i ,z2 i ) Which isWherein N is an integer greater than 0 and is used to represent the number of (measurable) points on the spring, and i is an integer less than or equal to N and greater than 0; from a set of three-dimensional spatial coordinates (x 1) of points on said spring i ,y1 i ,z1 i ) And (x 2) i ,y2 i ,z2 i ) Respectively showing the shapes of the spring before and after the screw structure loosens. Since the measurement of the three-dimensional space coordinates of each point on the spring can be realized by adopting the prior art (for example, the optical frequency domain reflectometer-based optical fiber distributed three-dimensional shape sensing technology mentioned in volume 42 of No. 1 of 2022), the measurement principle of the three-dimensional space coordinates is not described in detail in the present invention. In addition, comparing the shapes of the spring measured before and after the thread structure is loosened, and calculating the spring shape distortion amount may include: calculating a Euclidean distance d of a three-dimensional space according to the following formula, wherein the Euclidean distance represents the spring shape distortion quantity:
Figure GDA0004064470870000071
in this embodiment, when the screw structure is loosened, if only the inclination direction of the spring is changed synchronously with the change of the inclination direction of the screw structure, the euclidean distance indicates the change amount of the overall shape of the spring, and therefore, when the screw structure is rotated by different turns, but inclined in the same direction, the calculated euclidean distances are equal, and therefore, if only the inclination direction of the spring is changed synchronously with the rotation of the screw structure, the loosening of the screw structure cannot be accurately identified. Therefore, the inclination direction of the spring is synchronously changed along with the change of the inclination direction of the thread structure, and the stretching or compressing degree of the spring is gradually increased along with the increasing of the loosening degree of the thread structure. In addition, when the shape of the spring is changed only by the spiral rotation of the thread structure, the maximum value of the shape change (namely the Euclidean distance) exists, and the shape change is further increased due to the gradual increase of the stretching or compressing degree of the spring in the invention, so that when the shape change is larger than the maximum value, the thread structure can be determined to be loosened, and the loosening degree of the thread structure can be determined according to the size of the shape change. Therefore, in this embodiment, determining the loosening condition of the thread structure according to the amount of the spring shape distortion may include: and judging whether the spring shape distortion exceeds a corresponding set threshold value, and if so, determining the loosening condition of the thread structure according to the set threshold value. Wherein the corresponding set threshold may be a maximum euclidean distance that the spring may reach when only the inclination direction of the spring is changed synchronously with the change of the inclination direction of the thread structure; or euclidean distance values for indicating different degrees of loosening of the thread structure, the euclidean distance values being greater than the maximum euclidean distance value.
It can be seen from the above embodiments that the optical fiber is routed on the spring along the direction of the spring, so that the shape of the spring changes in the process of the screw thread structure spirally rotating due to loosening, and the shape of the spring is determined based on the reflected signal returned after the optical fiber section receives the measurement signal, thereby determining the loosening condition of the screw thread structure. In addition, the invention calculates the Euclidean distance of the three-dimensional space of the thread structure and the spring based on the three-dimensional space coordinate set of each point on the spring before and after the thread structure loosens, and determines the loosening condition of the thread structure according to the Euclidean distance, and the method for determining the loosening condition is simple.
