Description
DEVICE WITH FORCE FEEDBACK FOR ON-LINE INSPECTION OF THE
INTERNAL THREAD OF TUBE COUPLINGS ON A TREADING MACHINE
FIELD OF TIlE INVENTION
This invention presents a novel testing device with force feedback, used for inspecting and monitoring the internal thread of tube couplings when they are threaded on a treading machine. This invention is categorized into the field of high precision automatic testing technology.
BACKGROUND OF INVENTION
Tube coupling, an important mechanical part of machines used in oil fields, plays a critical role in the normal operation of machines used underground. It connects tubes to form an air-tight route. The tapered internal thread on the tube coupling is typical conoid thread.
Currently, two testing methods are used to inspect the thread of tube coupling. One is sample-testing on the spot. Inspectors periodically take samples from the coupling products according to certain rules, then visually inspect the surface of the thread and measure the samples with thread plug gauges. Thread pitch and taper gauges are also used to measure the pitch and taper of the thread. The other method is called laboratory inspection. Inspectors pick one sample of the tube couplings, and use a pen-and-paper record to collect data of the internal thread profile which will be manually processed and archived.
However, both of the above-mentioned methods have many disadvantages. First, they require intensive laboL Second, the measurement may be inconsistent across different inspectors. Third, not all the tube coupling products are inspected. Moreover, the traditional gauges can only find out the disqualified threads, but they cannot be used to identify the exact cause of failure. By the time the threading machine is adjusted based on the measurement of the samples, many disqualified products may have been already manufactured, which is a waste of resources. Therefore, it is necessary to invent an inspection device that can automatically inspect and monitor all of the internal thread of tube couplings during the threading process, so that all final products can meet the quality standards.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The objective of this invention is to provide a testing device for threading machine, capable of measuring the thread parameters on-line during the threading process of tube couplings. It features the feedback of contact force which enables precise measurement of the contact force between the probe and the internal thread surface. Since the device is fully automatic, it can dramatically improve the efficiency of the thread inspection of tube couplings. As a result, it can improve the quality control of all final products.
This on-line inspecting device consists of two motion components and one force feedback component. So, the device has two orthogonal degrees of freedom (DOFs). One DOE is along the axis (X direction) of the device, driven by a precise motion component to achieve the position of the probe (Xi); and the other is in the radial direction (Y direction) driven by a precise motion component capable of accurate positioning and outputting the moving distance. A force sensor is installed at the end of the radial motion component to measure contact force between the probe and the inspected thread surface. As soon as the measurement result of the force sensor is larger than the contact force threshold, indicating that contact between the probe and thread surface has occur, the motion in Y direction will stop and return the position of the probe on the thread surface in the Y direction (Yi).
The thread parameters of the inspected tube coupling are calculated from the probe position (Xi, Yi) ( i=i,2 n)during the entire testing. Since (Xi, Yi)is collected on a plane passing the center axis of the thread, they can be combined to obtain the two dimensional profile of the thread on the center plane. Then the data is processed to calculate the thread parameters including pitch, taper, thread depth, and thread angle.
The testing device is installed on the chuck of a thread machine at a specific location through an installation plate. When the tube coupling passes this location during its machining, its internal thread is monitored and inspected automatically A device with force feedback for on-line inspecting the internal thread of tube couplings on a treading machine should have the following components.

The detailed embodiment of the invented device is listed below with referring to the attached Figures.
As shown in Figures 1, the invented device consists of an axial motion component 101, a radial motion component 102, and a force feedback component 103.
As shown in Figures 2A and 3A, the invented device is mounted onto the lathe through installation plate and the three jaw chuck. The 220mm reference outer cylindrical face 301 A of the installation plate 201 is concentric with the chuck and the reference end face 302A is coincident with the chuck, so that the device is fixed to the treading machine.
Align the reference cylindrical face 401 of the outer socket 203 with the reference inner cylindrical face 303 A of the installation plate 201. Then fix them with three screws 202.
Insert two ball guiding sleeves 204 into the upper guiding sleeve hole 402 of the outer socket 203. Put a big locking ring 212 into the upper groove 403 to lock two ball guiding sleeves 204 along the axis. Following the same steps, insert two ball guiding sleeves 204 into the lower guiding sleeve hole 405 of the outer socket 203. Put a big locking ring 212 into the upper groove 404 to lock them. Insert a guiding pin 206 into the guiding sleeves 204 of each of the holes 402 and 405. Thus, the axes of the two guiding pins are parallel so that they can guide motion in the axial direction, Put a ball bearing 217, a separator sleeve 215, and a second ball bearing around the smooth shaft end 501 of the lead screw 214. Position them to the small shoulder 502. Then insert the lead screw into the big counterbore hole 301B of the installation plate 201, position them against the bottom face of the big counterbore hole 302B. Us a bearing lock nut 216 to lock the ball bearing 217. Put a short sleeve 218 around the smooth shaft end 501 of lead screw 214, positioning it against the ball bearing 217. Install a big pulley 219 onto the smooth shaft end 501 of the lead screw 214, positioning it against the short sleeve 218. Lock the pulley 219 to the lead screw 214 with a long lock screw 220.
As shown in Figures 2A, 2B, and 3A, install the step motor 231 into the through hole for motor installation 304A of the installation plate 201, and lock it in the axial direction with four round-head screws 230. Put a small pulley 232 on the shaft of the step motor 231, and lock it to the motor shaft with a short lock screw 233. Connect the big pulley 219 and small pulley 232 with a tooth belt 221.
Referring to Figures 2A, 5, and 6, use two hexagon socket countersunk head cap screws 210 to fix the fender 205 and the ball screw nut 213. Then turn the nut onto the lead screw 214 to a position where the front end face 605 of the fender 205 is to the left of the right shaft end 503 of the lead screw 214. Tweak the axial position and radial angle of the fender 205s to align the two guiding pins 206 with the guiding pin installation hole I 601 and hole II 602 of the fender 205. Also make the end face of the two guiding pins are coincident with front end face 605 of the fender 205. Then use two set screws for the guiding pins 211 to fix the guiding pins 206 and fender 205 together.
Install the lead screw protecting cover 209 concentrically onto ball screw nut 213, and glue it to fender 205.
Referring to Figures 2A, 6, and 7, insert the upper shoulder positioning cylinder 701 and lower shoulder position cylinder 702 of the U-shape fixture 208 into the upper positioning hole 603 and lower positioning hole 604 of the fender 205 respectively. Then use two nuts 207 to fix the U-shape fixture 208 to the fender 207.
When the step motor 231 rotates by a specified angle, it drives the small pulley 232 and transfers the motion to the big pulley 219 and the lead screw 214 by the tooth belt 221. Due to the linear constraints by the two guiding pins 206, the ball screw nut 213 cannot rotate. It can only move in the axial direction driven by the lead screw. So the axial motion component 102 moves with it in the axial direction for certain displacement As shown in Figures 2C and 7, glue the motor protecting cover 244 to the end of the linear step motor 242. Then install the linear step motor 242 to the motor hole 703 of the U-shape fixture 208.
Put the protecting cover 214 around the front end of the linear step motor 242. Then use two flat screws 243 and two hexagon nut 240 to fix together the linear step motor 242, the U-shape fixture 208, and the protecting cover 241.
As shown in Figures 2E and 9, insert the linear bearing 254 into the middle bearing hole 903 of the socket 253. Put the bearing lock ring 255 into the positioning groove 904 of the socket 253 so that the linear bearing 254 is locked in the axial direction of the socket 253.
As shown in Figures 2E, 8, and 9, insert the cylindrical body 801 of the probe into the linear bearing 254, 50 that the bottom face of the probe 803 of the probe 251 faces to the end face 902 of the socket 253.
As shown in Figures 9, 10, and 11, mate the internal thread 1001 of the lock cap 252 to the end external thread 901 of the socket 253, so that the end face of the locking cap 1002 of the lock cap 252 is coincident with the end face 902. The bottom face of the counterbore hole 1003 of the lock cap 252 is coincident to the Shoulder of the probe 802.
As shown in Figures 2E, 9, and 11, insert the force sensor 256 into the force sensor installation hole 905 of the socket 253. Screw the coupling crewing 257 into the socket 253 so that the force sensor 256 comes in contact with the bottom face of the probe 803 of the probe 251 and locks its position in the axial direction of the socket 253. Finally, screw the coupling nut 257 onto the shaft of the linear step motor and lock in place with the internal thread 1102.
The linear step motor 242 in the radial motion component 102 provides the force feedback component 103 fast and precise radial motion, and enables the force feedback component 103 to approach the internal thread surface of the tube coupling slowly and precisely. When the probe 251 in the force feedback component 103 does not contact the internal thread surface of the tube coupling, the force sensor has an initial pre-tension FO.
When the probe 251 comes into contact with the thread surface, the force sensor 256 will feedback contact force Fl. The contact force between the probe 251 and the thread surface is F = Fl -FO. Thus, the radial motion component 102 can stop its motion if the contact force is larger than the set threshold. The radial displacement is also recorded.
So far, a complete device with force feedback for on-line inspecting the internal thread of tube couplings on a treading machine is presented.
