2018, 37(9): 1313-1318. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.20180028
Abstract:
To resolve the conflict between the end trajectory tracking and the obstacle avoidance of a redundant manipulator, a weighted generalized inverse obstacle avoidance algorithm was presented. Its evaluation function called danger field was improved. By weighting the Jacobian matrix and gradient and feeding back the value of the danger field to an improved closed-loop inverse kinematics (CLIK) algorithm, the obstacle avoidance algorithm can avoid joint limits and obstacles. In order to enhance avoidance efficiency, the closed-loop control parameter was designed. In the process of obstacle avoidance, the manipulator can, in advance, cope with task suspension and resumption according to the relationship between value of danger field and threshold set. The numerical simulations results prove that the proposed algorithm is effective by means of Robotics Toolbox for MATLAB.

2018, 37(9): 1319-1324. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.20180063
Abstract:
In order to compile the load spectrum of hydraulic pump in an excavator based on the measured data, a certain kind of hydraulic excavator was tested and the load data of the excavator under typical working conditions was collected. Based on the measured data, the load segmentation of hydraulic pump was standardized according to obvious segmentation characteristics of the working conditions. The data was segmented and connected, and the non-parametric extrapolation method based on load extension was selected to extrapolate it. The results were reasonable compared with the actual operation of the hydraulic pump, which can provide a data foundation for the subsequent test and analysis of hydraulic pump.

Fang Lijin, Gao Rui
2018, 37(9): 1325-1330. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.20180026
Abstract:
It is not possible for a robot whose geometry does not meet the Pieper criterion to obtain a closed kinematic inverse solution. The robot is also known as general robot, and its inverse kinematic problems are usually solved with the numerical method. For the general 6 degree of freedom articulated robot, the iterative idea is still used. The n-th solution is taken as the initial value of the next iteration, which satisfies the high requirement that the initial value of iteration is sufficiently close to the exact solution. In the iterative process, the pseudo inverse matrix of the Jacobian matrix is used instead of inverse matrix, thus avoiding the problem that the robot cannot solve at the singularity. In the trajectory planning algorithm, the four-dimensional spherical linear interpolation method is used to interpolate the starting point and the end point, solving the problem of singularity and transient transition in the Euler angle attitude interpolation method. Finally, simulations in the MATLAB environment are carried out, and their results verify the feasibility of the real-time control of the improved inverse kinematic algorithm.

2018, 37(9): 1352-1358. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.20180068
Abstract:
In the multi-objective optimization of planetary gears, traditional particle swarm optimization (PSO) and adaptive weight particle swarm optimization (APSO) algorithms are not easy to converge or fall into local optimum under complex constraints. An improved adaptive weight particle swarm optimization (D-APSO) method is proposed and used to a multi-objective optimization design of the high power density of the planetary gear. With the minimum volume, maximum transmission efficiency and minimum central moment as the multi-objective optimization function, the penalty function method is used to deal with the constraint condition and the planetary gear boundary condition, and the objective is optimized by D-APSO algorithm. The calculation results show that the D-APSO algorithm is superior to the traditional PSO and the APSO algorithms in optimization speed and solution accuracy. While satisfying the carrier performance of the planetary gear system, the D-APSO algorithm can obtain smaller volume, smaller central distance and better transmission efficiency of the planetary gear system.

Lin Liqu, Xiang Jiawei
2018, 37(9): 1359-1365. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.20180034
Abstract:
In order to solve the problem in the usage of the ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) to extract fault feature in rolling element bearing, a hybrid fault diagnosis method is proposed. First, the morphological filter combining with translation invariant wavelet are served as the pre-filter of the EEMD to effectively eliminate the narrowband pulse and random noises from original signals. Second, aiming to the reasonable selection of the true components from intrinsic mode functions (IMFs), a screening rule is proposed to improve EEMD by selecting IMFs from the vibration signals of rolling element bearings. The autocorrelation functions of both the original signal and each IMF are calculated and normalized. All correlation coefficients are obtained by calculating the autocorrelation functions of the original signal with the autocorrelation functions of each IMF. To eliminate the false IMFs, a hard threshold is defined using the half of the maximum correlation coefficient. Therefore, inspect whether the first two IMFs are reserved, if not, reserving the first two IMFs simultaneously. Simulation and experimental investigations for the fault detection of rolling bearing show that the present hybrid method is effective. The advantages of the present method are:the usage of the pre-filter of the hybrid morphological filter and translation invariant wavelet is efficient to eliminate the interference of the narrowband pulse and the random noises from the rolling element bearings with faults; the real IMFs will be effectively selected form the de-noised signal using EEMD decomposition, and finally the feature frequency will be reliably obtained. This study provides a new way to detect faults of rolling element bearings.

Abstract:
In order to improve the control performance of a scraper conveyor extensible tail, a new firefly algorithm for the extensible tail PID controller is proposed. According to the dynamic decision domain radius update formula of the standard firefly algorithm, the updating coefficient of the decision domain is improved to enhance the initial search speed and global detection ability of the firefly algorithm. At the same time, the step-length monotone decreasing is used to improve the mobile step length in the position updating formula to enhance the depth search capability of the firefly algorithm. The results show that the accuracy and stability of the new firefly algorithm are better than those of the original algorithm. The model of scraper conveyor extensible tail controller and the PID controller parameters are tuned by the new firefly algorithm. The fitness function is improved by introducing energy indexes and overshoot indexes. The optimized controller of scraper conveyor extensible tail has a good control performance and robustness.

For the lower hierarchical control strategy, the Lagrange multiplier algorithm was carried out to distribute tire torque and improve vehicle stability and efficiency. The model was simulated with MATLAB/Simulink; the simulation results show that the method can effectively improve vehicle stability and efficiency.

2018, 37(9): 1380-1386. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.20180020
Abstract:
A universal post-processing algorithm for 5-axis CNC machine was proposed and applied to an orthogonal AC-type double turret machine. In this paper, experiments on the flank face grinding of a ball-end milling tool was conducted in the AC-type double turret machine. After verifying the post-processing algorithm, a "virtual grinding wheel" method was put forward to optimize the machining path roughly under the machine's moving structural constraints. Considering the fact that the steps of C-axis rotate and cause big non-linear errors and overcut of the workpiece in the singularity region, which is normal in machine tools with a C-axis, the machining path in this region was optimized further with the cubic B-spline curve fitting method. The simulation and eventual grinding results verify the feasibility of this method.

Abstract:
It is a reality that the superfinishing process of ball bearing ring raceway is insensitive to geometric precision, and the traditional grinding process of ring raceway is difficult to reach high shape accuracy and low surface roughness. This paper explored the final processing technology for ball bearing ring raceway, and a new processing method of ELID (electrolytic in-process dressing) profile grinding for ball bearing ring raceway based on circular trace feed was proposed. Firstly, the advantage of this method was analyzed in grinding principle. Secondly, the ELID profile grinding experiment of ball bearing ring raceway based on workpiece cathode was carried out. The Ra of processed surface was measured and reached 0.19 μm. The results show that the application of ELID grinding technology in grinding ring groove of ball bearings effectively reduces surface roughness under the condition of workpiece cathode, and the method of ELID profile gringding for ball bearing ring raceway based on circular trace feed is rational. Finally, in order to meet the technological requirements, the feed mechanism of circular trace was designed, which provided the construction of profile grinding experimental platform of ball bearing ring raceway with principle design.

2018, 37(9): 1401-1407. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.20180057
Abstract:
It is difficult to resolve the chip breaking and discharge in the staggered teeth boring and trepanning association (BTA) drilling. The effect of the tool-chip contact length on chip deformation and breaking in the staggered teeth BTA drilling is analyzed with the geometric deformation model of chip breaking we built in the paper. We adopt the finite element method (FEM) simulation software of DEFORM-3D to establish the drilling model for simulation. The rules that govern formation and deformation of every cutting tooth chipping are analyzed; the distribution laws with the drilling radius and drilling condition of the tool-chip contact length are studied. The simulation results are verified by experiments. The results show that the simulation is reliable. The drilling radius has a great influence on the deformation of chips and tool-chip contact length. The tool-chip contact length of the cutting teeth increases with the increase of the feed and material strength and the decrease of the speed.

Abstract:
Aiming at the difficult detection of inner and outer ring faults in the rolling bearings with different damage degrees under the influence of background noise, a new evaluation method of damage degree based on the complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition(CEEMD) and Lempel-Ziv complexity(LZC index for short) is proposed. First of all, vibration signal of fault rolling bearing is decomposed into a number of intrinsic mode function (IMF) components. Then, the effective IMF component is picked up based on the kurtosis maximum criterion so that the comprehensive index of Lempel-Ziv complexity can be calculated. Finally, the damage degree of the fault rolling bearings is judged based on the variation rule of Lempel-Ziv complexity, and the value interval of Lempel-Ziv complexity is determined reasonably among rolling bearings with different degrees according to 6 sigma principle. The experimental results of this method to damage degree evaluation of rolling bearings have shown the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method.

Abstract:
In order to solve the engineering application problem of the traditional pressure system driven by control valve or asynchronous motor associated with the rising temperature and complex structure which may result in the sensitiveness of oil pollution, poor pressure retaining accuracy and low efficiency, a novel leakage compensation pressure retaining method for a direct drive volume control electro-hydraulic servo system is proposed and implemented based on analysis of the speed regulation performance and efficiency of a permanent magnet synchronous AC servo motor that integrates the simple structure and high reliability of a gear pump. While retaining the pressure of the servo system, according to the flow continuity equation, the output flow of the gear pump only needs to compensate for the leakage of a rotary hydraulic cylinder. Compared with the traditional pressure retaining system, this servo system has the advantage of simple structure, high reliability and energy saving. Through the experiments on the actual flow of the gear pump and the leakage of the rotary hydraulic cylinder, the mathematical relationship between gear pump speed and servo system pressure is obtained, and the pressure retaining mathematical model is established. Meanwhile, the experiments on the step response of the servo system demonstrate its dynamic performance. The experimental results show that the output of the servo system is in good agreement with its input. The servo system satisfies requirements for pressure retaining.

Shan Jianfeng, Wan Guofa
2018, 37(9): 1431-1436. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.20180023
Abstract:
The local mean decomposition (LMD) and approximate entropy methods were proposed to extract features of an analog circuit in order to process the non-linear and non-stationary faulty circuit signals. These signals were firstly decomposed into the sum of product functions(PF) according the LMD algorithm. Approximate entropy features, as the feature vectors of the signals, were calculated with the first three product functions. The complexity of output response signals varies from different faulty circuits; the complexity of the PF after LMD are greatly different for the same reason. Meanwhile, the approximate entropy can represent the time complexity so that the features of the faulty circuit can be effectively extracted by combining the LMD with the approximate entropy algorithms. Finally the kernel Fisher discriminant analysis was used to classify faults and detect them accurately. The simulation results show that this feature extraction method can not only extract the features of a faulty circuit but also classify them accurately, and the average classification accuracy is 97.86%.

Abstract:
Surface hardening is an important way to improve mechanical performance of aircraft gears. A large number of aircraft gear failure is related to gear hardened layer, therefore to determine mechanical properties of gear hardened layer is very critical. Due to surface hardening, mechanical properties of gear materials are not uniform. So it is difficult to determine the properties of materials with the traditional mechanical test methods. In the paper, the approximate relationship between the Vickers hardness and the yield strength of the surface hardened layer of aircraft gear is analyzed based on the comparison and analysis between the Vickers hardness experimental results and the simulated via ABAQUS. That it provides a new way to determine the material mechanical parameters of heterogeneous materials and full use the working ability of surface hardening parts.
