Abstract

The invention relates to a device for detecting and representing the spatial deflection of a measuring prod according to Patent Application P3842032.5. The deflection movement is fed to the position pickups (displacement sensors) as a combination of pivoting movements and longitudinal movements. Either a rotatably mounted ball or a guide which is suspended on a universal joint such that it can rotate about two axes simultaneously permits the transmission of the longitudinal movements in addition to the pivoting movements.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Drei-Koordinaten-Meßtaster zur Messung von Verformungen an Strukturen, z.B. im Fahrzeug- oder Flugzeugbau, nach Patentanmeldung P 38 42 032.5. Dieses beschreibt einen Drei- Koordinaten-Meßtaster, bei dem die Auslenkbewegungen der Meßtast­ spitze als gleichzeitig und unabhängig voneinander erfolgende Schwenk- und Längsbewegungen auf die Wegaufnehmer übertragen werden. Hierzu wird nach P 38 42 032.5 eine drehbar gelagerte Kugel mit einer Längsführung eingesetzt.The invention relates to a three-coordinate probe for measurement of deformations on structures, e.g. in vehicle or aircraft construction, according to patent application P 38 42 032.5. This describes a three Coordinate probe, in which the deflection of the probe top as occurring simultaneously and independently of each other Swiveling and longitudinal movements are transferred to the displacement transducer. According to P 38 42 032.5, a rotatably mounted ball is used a longitudinal guide used.

Gegenstand der Zusatzanmeldung ist eine Weiterentwicklung des Meß­ tasters dahingehend, daß die Funktion der drehbar gelagerten Kugel mit Längsführung durch eine Axialführung 18, die in zwei Achsen kar­ danisch aufgehängt ist, ralisiert wird, was bei kleinen Serien eine preiswerte Fertigung ermöglicht.The subject of the additional application is a further development of the probe in that the function of the rotatably mounted ball with longitudinal guidance is realized by an axial guide 18 , which is suspended danically in two axes, which enables inexpensive production in small series.

Der Drehbereich um die beiden Achsen in kardanischer Anordnung (bekannte Technik) ist zweckmäßig durch Anschläge zu begrenzen, weil nur Schwenkbewegungen mit relativ geringen Winkelausschlägen auftre­ ten; der Schwenkbereich um beide Achsen sollte gleich groß sein. Die Ausführung der Lager (Spitzen-, Wälz- oder Gleitlager) wird sich nach den Auslenkungskräften richten, desgleichen die Art der Lagerung des Taststiftes 2 in der Längsführung, in der Zeichnung als Führungshülse ausgebildet. Bei schwachen Auslenkräften ist z.B. einer axial wirksamen Kugellagerung der Vorzug vor einer axial gleitenden Lagerung zu geben. The range of rotation around the two axes in a cardan arrangement (known technology) is expediently limited by stops, because only pivoting movements with relatively small angular deflections occur; the swivel range around both axes should be the same. The design of the bearings (tip, roller or slide bearings) will depend on the deflection forces, as will the type of mounting of the stylus 2 in the longitudinal guide, shown in the drawing as a guide sleeve. In the case of weak deflection forces, for example, an axially effective ball bearing is preferred over an axially sliding bearing.

Bei Spitzenlagerung der kardanischen Aufhängung ist es vorteilhaft, federnde Elemente 19 einzusetzen, durch Vorspannung bleibt die Lage­ rung spielfrei.When the gimbal is mounted at the top, it is advantageous to use resilient elements 19 ; the position remains free of play by pretensioning.
