Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a test device comprising a support structure and connection structures carried by the support structure for forming a detachable mechanical connection with an assembly.
  • the present invention further relates to a method for assessing the noise behavior of an assembly, which is caused by, in particular mechanical or electrical, vibrations, which has a large number of individual elements.
  • assemblies comprise at least two individual elements.
  • assemblies comprise a multiplicity, that is to say two or more, of individual elements, that is to say components, components, building modules and / or smaller assemblies.
  • connection structures carried by the support structure are arranged on the support structure. In other words: “Carried” is to be understood as “arranged”.
  • relative movements, oscillations and vibrations can occur due to internal forces acting within the assembly, that is, between the individual elements. Such forces are also referred to as interface forces.
  • assemblies are steering systems of motor vehicles, steering columns of motor vehicles or steering gears of motor vehicles.
  • the relative movements, oscillations and vibrations can move or propagate through the structure of the assembly in the form of structure-borne noise.
  • the structure-borne sound is finally emitted from the structure of the assembly at one or more points in the form of airborne sound and thus leads to noise emission or to noise that is regularly perceived as annoying by people. But also the structure-borne noise itself - if it reaches the human user - is regularly perceived as annoying by people.
  • the object of the present invention is to create a comparatively simple way of assessing the noise behavior of an assembly, as early as possible during development Assemblies.
  • a test device comprising a support structure and, preferably two, connection structures carried by the support structure for forming a detachable, mechanical connection with an assembly.
  • each of the connection structures has a defined rigidity and is designed to form a force-fit connection with the assembly, a sensor for detecting accelerations and / or forces being arranged on each of the connection structures.
  • the test device can be a device for executing a method for assessing the noise behavior of an assembly caused by, in particular mechanical or electrical, vibrations.
  • connection structures preferably has a sensor. It is conceivable and possible to arrange several sensors on each of the connection structure in order to be able to measure several signals. It is also conceivable and possible to provide more than two connection structures, such as three, four or five, for example. Due to the defined rigidity of the connection structures and the force-fit connection between the assembly to be examined and the connection structures of the device according to the invention, it is possible to determine the interesting and relevant interface forces without the acceleration and / or force sensor or sensors on the component to place yourself. Instead, it is thereby possible to determine the interface forces of interest while the acceleration and / or force sensor or sensors is or are placed on the device according to the invention. The sensor or the sensors can thus be arranged unchanged on the test device or the test stand. Repositioning of the sensor or the sensors for each individual assembly to be tested is thus unnecessary, so that a new, time-consuming setting or calibration is also unnecessary. This shortens the time required to assess the noise behavior of interest and thus saves costs.
  • the force sensor or sensors can advantageously be placed or arranged in the force flow or within the force flow of the support structure.
  • the acceleration sensor can be designed as a shock acceleration sensor in order to be able to measure the vibrations when hard materials collide with one another. Furthermore, the acceleration sensor can be designed as a uniaxial, biaxial or particularly preferably as a triaxial acceleration sensor in order to be able to carry out the vibration measurement in all three spatial axes simultaneously.
  • a defined rigidity of the connection structures is necessary in order to realize a defined connection between the support structure and the assembly.
  • the defined rigidity is preferably a high rigidity in order to realize a rigid connection between the support structure and the assembly, that is to say in order to realize rigid connection structures.
  • Rigid connection structures are in turn required to ensure a firm, non-positive connection and to exclude interference from relative movements.
  • a high rigidity of the connection structures and a firm, non-positive connection ensure precise measurements and thus a high-quality assessment of the noise behavior of the assembly to be examined caused by mechanical or electrical vibrations.
  • the defined stiffness preferably transmits frequencies in a defined range and / or amplitudes to the respective sensor. Frequencies up to 2.5 kHz, more preferably up to 3.5 kHz, more preferably up to 5 kHz are preferably due to the rigid connection kHz, more preferably up to 10 kHz and more preferably frequencies up to 20 kHz, in order to be able to better assess the noise behavior of the assembly.
  • the rigid connection preferably transmits 90% of the movements to the sensor, more preferably 95% and more preferably 99% of the movements.
  • the test device according to the invention makes it possible to take constructive measures to improve the noise behavior at an early stage, that is to say in an early development phase. This is because the test device according to the invention can be used to find the causes of the generation of disruptive noises. In this way, disturbing noises can be reduced or avoided not only indirectly, but directly. Complex measures to compensate for disruptive noises are therefore unnecessary.
  • the test device according to the invention can be a test stand.
  • the support structure can be made in one piece or in several parts.
  • a multi-part support structure comprises two or more components. In the case of a one-piece support structure, all of the connection structures are supported by the support structure. In the case of a multi-part support structure, the connection structures are each carried by one of the components of the support structure.
  • one of the supporting structures is a clamping yoke.
  • connection structures are each jaws.
  • the assembly is a steering column or a steering gear of an electromechanical power steering for a motor vehicle.
  • a method for assessing the noise behavior, in particular mechanical or electrical, vibrations of an assembly that has a large number of individual elements.
  • the method comprises the following steps: providing a test device, in particular the test device according to the invention; Connecting the assembly to the test device via the connection structures of the device by means of a force fit; Mechanical excitation of the assembly by impressing an internal and / or external pulse; Determination of a parameter defining the noise behavior, in particular by measuring the accelerations and / or forces by means of a sensor.
  • the plurality of individual elements includes at least two individual elements.
  • An internal pulse is a pulse that is sent out from one of the components of the assembly, for example the electric motor.
  • the determination comprises the following steps: determining a transfer function describing the dynamic behavior of the assembly, in particular between a force introduction point and a force discharge point, in particular through experimental modeling, preferably by measuring the accelerations and / or forces by means of a sensor; Calculating interface forces acting between the individual elements of the assembly on the basis of the determined transfer function; Analyze the interface forces.
  • Determining a transfer function comprises the following method steps: mechanical excitation of the assembly; Detection of the accelerations and / or forces on the supporting structure caused by the mechanical excitation of the assembly.
  • the transfer function which describes the dynamic behavior of the module, can be calculated as a quotient from an input signal and an output signal. Both the input signal and the output signal are to be assumed to be known for this purpose, to be detected by sensors or to determine the like.
  • the transfer function is determined by hammer blow tests or by hammer blow excitation with an impact hammer.
  • the impact hammer comprises a force sensor on the striking side of the hammer head, that is to say on the side of the hammer head facing the assembly.
  • the force sensor records the impact or impact force when the hammer blows.
  • the hammer blow is a pulse-like mechanical stimulation of the assembly.
  • the transfer function can be calculated as the quotient of the stroke or impact force detected by the force sensor of the impact hammer and the acceleration detected by the at least one sensor of the device according to the invention.
  • the analyzing comprises the following steps: breaking down the interface forces into frequencies by means of frequency analysis; Determination of a numerical value representing the vibration behavior of the assembly by averaging or summing the frequencies. This is relatively computationally efficient and easy to implement.
  • the analysis can include the following steps: breaking down the interface forces by order analysis into order components; Determination of a numerical value representing the vibration behavior of the assembly by averaging or adding up the ordinal components. This is also relatively computationally efficient and easy to implement.
  • the analysis can comprise the following steps: breaking down the interface forces into frequencies by a filter bank; Determination of a numerical value representing the vibration behavior of the assembly by averaging or summing the frequencies. In this way, both the oscillation and the frequency-dependent distribution of the oscillation can be determined.
  • filter banks are preferably used. Filter banks are arrangements of low, band and high pass filters with which signals can be spectrally split or composed from their spectral components.
  • the analysis is particularly preferably carried out using a filter bank with 1 / n octave filters. In the 1 / n octave analysis, the oscillation to be analyzed is divided into partial signals by a digital filter bank before the level is determined.
  • the filter bank has several 1 / n-octave wide filters connected in parallel.
  • the upper limit frequency is always twice the lower limit frequency.
  • a 1/3 octave filter, also called a third octave filter, is particularly preferably used. This divides the octave bands into three parts.
  • a scalar numerical value is advantageously determined. Scalar numerical values can be handled in a computationally efficient manner.
  • the analysis can include the additional step: comparing the determined numerical value with a definable threshold value.
  • a conclusion or assessment that assesses the noise behavior of the assembly can be derived from the comparison. Description of the drawing
