Description
La présente invention a pour objet un procédé de serrage d'un assemblage comportant un élément d'assemblage fileté pour appliquer à cet assemblage un effort de serrage prédéterminé.The present invention relates to a method of tightening an assembly comprising a threaded assembly element to apply to this assembly a predetermined clamping force.
Tous les procédés de serrage actuellement utilisés pour maintenir des assemblages au moyen d'un élément d'assemblage fileté ont pour but d'appliquer à ces assemblages un effort de serrage prédéterminé dont dépend la tenue de l'assemblage lors de son utilisation.All the tightening methods currently used to maintain assemblies by means of a threaded assembly element are intended to apply to these assemblies a predetermined clamping force on which the holding of the assembly depends during its use.
Parmi les procédés de serrage connus par MACHINE DESIGN (vol 47 N° 5 mars 1975) on distingue notamment:
- - Le vissage au couple. C'est la méthode de loin la plus utilisée, elle consiste à visser jusqu'à l'obtention d'un couple résistant donné. Elle est facile à mettre en oeuvre: manuellement, il suffit de disposer d'une clé dynamométrique, pour l'automatisation en chaîne de montage, on place un couplemètre dans la chaîne de vissage et l'on arrête le vissage lorsque l'on a mesuré le couple spécifié. Malheureusement, la dispersion au niveau de la force de précontrainte est très importante, le coefficient de frottement étant extrêmement variable. On a tenté de remédier à ce grave inconvénient en utilisant une lubrification solide au niveau des filets grâce à l'application de vernis spéciaux mais le traitement du boulon et de l'écrou augmente fortement le prix de revient de l'assemblage.
- - Le vissage à l'angle. Le principe du vissage à l'angle est simple, il consiste à détecter la mise en contact des pièces de l'assemblage en observant la montée en couple, puis à visser d'un angle déterminé. La détermination par le calcul de l'angle ne donne qu'un angle très approximatif car il est difficile de faire intervenir tous les paramètres (le calcul de la rigidité de l'assemblage est délicat).
- - Torque screwing. It is by far the most used method, it consists of screwing until a given resistant torque is obtained. It is easy to implement: manually, all you need is a torque wrench, for assembly line automation, place a torque meter in the screwing chain and stop screwing when you have measured the specified torque. Unfortunately, the dispersion in the prestressing force is very large, the coefficient of friction being extremely variable. We have tried to remedy this serious drawback by using solid lubrication at the threads through the application of special varnishes, but the treatment of the bolt and the nut greatly increases the cost price of the assembly.
- - Screwing at the corner. The principle of screwing at the angle is simple, it consists in detecting the contacting of the parts of the assembly by observing the rise in torque, then in screwing at a determined angle. The determination by the calculation of the angle gives only a very approximate angle because it is difficult to involve all the parameters (the calculation of the rigidity of the assembly is delicate).
Pour déterminer l'angle, on peut visser une série de boulons équipés de jauges qui fournissent la force de précontrainte et faire la moyenne des angles obtenus. Une autre méthode consiste à utiliser un assemblage témoin et un comparateur qui mesure l'allongement du boulon qui est proportionnel à la force de précontrainte. Les variations de rigidité sont faibles d'un échantillon à l'autre et cette méthode donne de meilleurs résultats que le contrôle du couple. Le principal problème étant toutefois la détection de la montée en couple qui sert de point de départ pour le comptage de l'angle.
- - Le vissage à la limite d'élasticité. Cette méthode connue par la publication FR 2371679 consiste à arrêter le vissage lorsque l'on atteint la limite élastique de l'élément d'assemblage fileté. Pour ce faire, après avoir remarqué sur la courbe donnant le couple de vissage en fonction de l'angle de rotation de l'élément d'assemblage que le vissage dans la plage élastique correspond à une montée linéaire, on considère le gradient de couple par rapport à l'angle; celui-ci est constant dans la plage élastique et chute brutalement dans le domaine plastique. Il suffit donc d'utiliser un système relativement simple pour détecter la chute du gradient.
- - Screwing to the elastic limit. This method known from the publication FR 2371679 consists in stopping the screwing when the elastic limit of the threaded connecting element is reached. To do this, after having noticed on the curve giving the screwing torque as a function of the angle of rotation of the connecting element that the screwing in the elastic range corresponds to a linear rise, we consider the torque gradient by relation to the angle; this is constant in the elastic range and drops suddenly in the plastic area. It is therefore sufficient to use a relatively simple system to detect the fall of the gradient.
L'utilisation du vissage à la limite d'élasticité a toutefois pour inconvénients, de parfaitement dimensionner l'assemblage, de ne permettre que l'utilisation d'une visserie dont on connaisse parfaitement la qualité, d'empêcher l'interposition de rondelles car le glissement éventuel de celle-ci fausse la détection de la chute du gradient.The use of screwing at the elastic limit has the disadvantages, however, of perfectly dimensioning the assembly, of only allowing the use of screws and bolts of which the quality is perfectly known, of preventing the interposition of washers because the possible sliding of this one falsifies the detection of the fall of the gradient.
L'invention a pour but de proposer un procédé de serrage qui remédie aux inconvénients des méthodes connues de l'art antérieur.The object of the invention is to propose a tightening method which overcomes the drawbacks of the methods known from the prior art.
Dans ce but, l'invention propose un procédé caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend les étapes suivantes:
- a) appliquer audit élément d'assemblage un cycle de vissage préliminaire;
- b) relever la valeur du couple de vissage (C v) appliqué audit élément d'assemblage à la fin dudit cycle de vissage préliminaire;
- c) appliquer audit élément un cycle de dévissage préliminaire;
- d) relever la valeur du couple de dévissage (C d) appliqué audit élément d'assemblage au début dudit cycle de dévissage préliminaire;
- e) calculer un coefficient réel de proportionnalité (K) en fonction des valeurs des couples de vissage et de dévissage (C v, C d) mesurés et calculer le couple de vissage final (Cf) à appliquer à l'élément d'assemblage pour obtenir ledit effort de serrage prédéterminé (F), en fonction dudit coefficient réel de proportionnalité (K); et en fonction de la formule F = K x Cf;
- f) appliquer ledit couple de vissage final (Cf) audit élément d'assemblage.
- a) applying to said assembly element a preliminary tightening cycle;
- b) reading the value of the tightening torque (C v) applied to said assembly element at the end of said preliminary tightening cycle;
- c) applying to said element a preliminary unscrewing cycle;
- d) reading the value of the unscrewing torque (C d) applied to said assembly element at the start of said preliminary unscrewing cycle;
- e) calculate a real proportionality coefficient (K) as a function of the values of the screwing and unscrewing couples (C v, C d) measured and calculate the final screwing torque (Cf) to be applied to the connecting element for obtaining said predetermined clamping force (F), as a function of said real coefficient of proportionality (K); and according to the formula F = K x Cf;
- f) applying said final tightening torque (Cf) to said assembly element.
Le coefficient K est donné par la formule
La procédé selon l'invention a pour avantage principal d'identifier pour chaque assemblage réalisé le coefficient réel de proportionnalité reliant l'effort de serrage au couple de vissage.The method according to the invention has the main advantage of identifying for each assembly carried out the real coefficient of proportionality relating the tightening force to the tightening torque.
De plus, le procédé selon l'invention possède l'avantage de pouvoir être aisément substitué au procédé utilisant la méthode du vissage au couple et ce sans modification de l'assemblage ni étude supplémentaire de ce dernier. Une telle substitution n'est pas possible, ni dans le cas du vissage à la limite d'élasticité qui nécessite un dimensionnement précis de la vis, ni dans le cas du vissage à l'angle qui demande une étude préliminaire et des essais nombreux et coûteux.In addition, the method according to the invention has the advantage of being able to be easily substituted for the method using the torque screwing method, without modification of the assembly or additional study of the latter. Such a substitution is not possible, neither in the case of screwing at the elastic limit which requires precise sizing of the screw, nor in the case of angle screwing which requires a preliminary study and numerous tests and expensive.
Lors de la conception de l'assemblage, il suffit de déterminer l'effort de serrage prédéterminé que l'on désire y appliquer et il n'est pas nécessaire de calculer à priori la valeur du couple de vissage qu'il sera nécessaire d'appliquer afin d'obtenir un effort de serrage prédéterminé.When designing the assembly, it suffices to determine the predetermined clamping force which it is desired to apply to it and it is not necessary to calculate a priori the value of the tightening torque which it will be necessary to apply in order to obtain a predetermined clamping force.
L'invention concenne aussi un procédé selon la revendication 3. On décrira maintemant l'invention en détails en se référant au dessin annexé dans lequel la figure 1 représente un assemblage auquel l'invention est susceptible d'être appliquée.The invention also relates to a method according to Claim 3. The invention will now be described in detail with reference to the appended drawing in which FIG. 1 represents an assembly to which the invention is capable of being applied.
On a représenté à la figure 1 un assemblage classique comprenant deux pièces planes 12 et 14 que l'on désire assembler au moyen d'un élément d'assemblage fileté. Dans l'exemple représenté, l'élément fileté 14 est constitué par un boulon 16 comprenant une tête 18, une tige filetée 20 et un écrou 22. La tige filetée 20 est reçue dans deux alésages 13 et 15 formés dans les pièces 12 et 14. On a également prévu une première rondelle 24 disposée entre la face inférieure 19 de la tête de boulon 18 et la face supérieure en vis-à-vis de la pièce 12, et une seconde rondelle 26 disposée entre la face supérieure 21 de l'écrou 22 et la face inférieure en vis-à-vis de la pièce 14.FIG. 1 shows a conventional assembly comprising two
Dans un assemblage tel que celui représenté à la figure 1, la relation approximative qui lie le couple de vissage Cv à appliquer à l'assemblage pour obtenir un effort de serrage axial prédéterminé F entre les pièces à assembler peut être donnée par la formule suivante:
- Cv = couple de vissage,
- p = pas du filet de l'élément fileté,
- µ = coefficient de frottement moyen de l'assemblage,
- D = bras de levier équivalent de la force tangentielle due aux frottements,
- F = effort de serrage axial prédéterminé.
- Cv = tightening torque,
- p = not the thread of the threaded element,
- µ = average friction coefficient of the assembly,
- D = lever arm equivalent to the tangential force due to friction,
- F = predetermined axial clamping force.
On constante donc que pour un assemblage donné auquel correspondent des valeurs particulières de ¡.t et D propres à cet assemblage on a une formule du type:
Lors du dévissage la formule (1) devient:
Si on considère le couple en fonction de la force on constante donc qu'il existe un hystérésis entre le vissage et le dévissage, et en combinant les formules (1) et (3) on obtient la formule suivante:
Le principe du procédé objet de la présente invention est d'identifier le coefficient réel de proportionnalité K pour chaque assemblage grâce à l'existence dudit hystérésis.The principle of the method which is the subject of the present invention is to identify the real coefficient of proportionality K for each assembly by virtue of the existence of said hysteresis.
En combinant les formules (2) et (4) on obtient la formule suivante:By combining formulas (2) and (4) we obtain the following formula:
L'invention propose donc d'utiliser le procédé suivant:
- a) appliquer à l'élément d'assemblage un cycle de vissage préliminaire;
- b) mesurer le couple de vissage Cv appliqué à l'élément d'assemblage en fonction du déplacement angulaire de ce dernier, lors de l'application du cycle de vissage préliminaire;
- c) appliquer à l'élément un cycle de dévissage préliminaire;
- d) mesurer le couple de dévissage Cd appliqué à l'élément d'assemblage en fonction du déplacement angulaire de ce dernier, lors de l'application du cycle de dévissage préliminaire;
- e) calculer le coefficient réel de proportionnalité K reliant l'effort de serrage de l'assemblage au couple de vissage appliqué à l'élément d'assemblage, en fonction des résultats obtenus au cours des étapes de mesure b) et d);
- f) calculer le couple de vissage final Cf à appliquer à l'élément d'assemblage pour obtenir l'effort de serrage prédéterminé Ff, en fonction du coefficient réel de proportionnalité K; et
- g) appliquer le couple de vissage final Cf à l'élément d'assemblage.
- a) applying a preliminary tightening cycle to the assembly element;
- b) measuring the screwing torque Cv applied to the assembly element as a function of the angular displacement of the latter, during the application of the preliminary screwing cycle;
- c) applying a preliminary unscrewing cycle to the element;
- d) measuring the unscrewing torque Cd applied to the assembly element as a function of the angular displacement of the latter, during the application of the preliminary unscrewing cycle;
- e) calculating the real coefficient of proportionality K connecting the tightening force of the assembly to the tightening torque applied to the assembly element, as a function of the results obtained during the measurement steps b) and d);
- f) calculating the final tightening torque Cf to be applied to the connecting element to obtain the predetermined tightening force Ff, as a function of the real coefficient of proportionality K; and
- g) apply the final tightening torque Cf to the assembly element.
Selon un premier mode de réalisation, l'étape e) comprend les étapes intermédiaires suivantes:
- e1) relever la valeur du couple de vissage C'v appliqué à l'élément d'assemblage à la fin du cycle de vissage préliminaire;
- e2) relever la valeur du couple de dévissage C'd appliqué à l'élément d'assemblage au début du cycle de dévissage préliminaire; et
- e3) calculer le coefficient réel de proportionnalité K en fonction des valeurs des couples de vissage et de dévissage C'v, C'd relevées aux étapes intermédiaires e1 ) et e2).
- e1) note the value of the tightening torque C'v applied to the connecting element at the end of the preliminary tightening cycle;
- e2) note the value of the unscrewing torque C'd applied to the assembly element at the start of the preliminary unscrewing cycle; and
- e3) calculate the real proportionality coefficient K as a function of the values of the screwing and unscrewing couples C'v, C'd noted in the intermediate steps e1) and e2).
Dans ce premier mode de réalisation, lors de l'étape intermédiaire e3), le coefficient réel de proportionnalité K est calculé à l'aide de la formule suivante:
Une fois K calculé, il ne reste plus qu'à calculer Cf à l'aide de la formule:
- e'1) calculer le gradient Gv de la courbe, donnant le couple de vissage en fonction du déplacement angulaire de l'élément d'assemblage, établie à partir des résultats obtenus au cours de l'étape de mesure b);
- e'2) calculer le gradient Gd de la courbe, donnant le couple de dévissage en fonction du déplacement angulaire de l'élément d'assemblage, établie à partir des résultats de l'étape de mesure d) ; et
- e'3) calculer ledit coefficient réel de proportionnalité K en fonction des valeurs de gradients Gv, Gd calculées aux étapes intermédiaires e'1) et e'2).
- e'1) calculate the gradient Gv of the curve, don nant the screwing torque as a function of the angular displacement of the assembly element, established from the results obtained during the measurement step b);
- e'2) calculating the gradient Gd of the curve, giving the unscrewing torque as a function of the angular displacement of the assembly element, established from the results of the measurement step d); and
- e'3) calculate said real proportionality coefficient K as a function of the gradient values Gv, Gd calculated in the intermediate steps e'1) and e'2).
Le gradient Gv est donné par la formule:
De même, Gd est donné par la formule:
Dans ce deuxième mode de réalisation, lors de l'étape intermédiaire e'3), le coefficient réel de proportionnalité K doit être calculé à l'aide de la formule suivante:
Bien que les deux modes de réalisation qui viennent d'être décrits donnent de bons résultats, ces derniers peuvent être améliorés en répétant les étapes a) à e) n fois et en calculant le coefficient réel de proportionnalité K à l'aide de toute méthode statistique convenant telle que par exemple méthode de la moyenne, méthode des moindres carrés, etc.Although the two embodiments which have just been described give good results, these can be improved by repeating steps a) to e) n times and by calculating the real coefficient of proportionality K using any method. suitable statistics such as, for example, mean method, least squares method, etc.
Afin d'obtenir la plus grande précision possible quant à la valeur de K, il est souhaitable que la valeur finale du couple de vissage, lors du cycle préliminaire de vissage, soit égale à environ 80% de la valeur approchée de Cf que l'on peut calculer lors de la conception de l'assemblage.In order to obtain the greatest possible precision as to the value of K, it is desirable that the final value of the tightening torque, during the preliminary tightening cycle, is equal to approximately 80% of the approximate value of Cf that the we can calculate when designing the assembly.
De même, lorsque l'on réitère au moins deux fois les étapes a) à e), il est souhaitable d'appliquer la première fois une valeur finale du couple de vissage correspondant à la valeur approchée de Cf que l'on peut calculer lors de la conception de l'assemblage en prenant pour µ la valeur minimale estimée de ce coefficient. Lors du second cycle, il est alors souhaitable d'appliquer un couple de vissage dont la valeur finale à la fin de l'étape a) correspond à environ 80% de la valeur Cf qui a pu être calculée à l'issue des étapes a) à e) du premier cycle.Similarly, when steps a) to e) are repeated at least twice, it is desirable to apply for the first time a final value of the tightening torque corresponding to the approximate value of Cf which can be calculated during of the design of the assembly taking for µ the estimated minimum value of this coefficient. During the second cycle, it is then desirable to apply a tightening torque, the final value of which at the end of step a) corresponds to approximately 80% of the value Cf which could have been calculated at the end of steps a ) to e) of the first cycle.
