Abstract:In the precisive process of small clearance shaft holes assembly, the relative position and attitude of the shaft and holes are determined based on the force and torque information detected by the sensors, and then the contact status is clarified to determine the adjustment direction. Due to the high coupling of contact force and torque with the pose of the axis, there is a coupling effect between forces and torque in five directions during the assembly process. Each force will affect each other, leading to the slow convergence of control. To reduce the oscillation caused by coupling and improve control efficiency, a compliant assembly strategy based on zero-point state tracking method is proposed. This strategy aligns the shaft and hole based on the interaction force information between the shaft and hole. During the assembly stage, the interaction model between the shaft and hole is analyzed and a contact state force relationship diagram is drawn to identify the contact state during the adjustment process. Under this adjustment strategy, the position is adjusted in advance before adjusting the attitude angle, so that the radial contact force is 0 N. The horizontal force "zero point" in the two-point contact state is tracked to eliminate the influence of the first type of torque, decoupling the complex multi-dimensional force control problem of automated assembly of shaft holes at the control level by ensuring that the angle adjustment is only affected by angle deviation. The experimental results show that using the designed assembly strategy, the control time is reduced by 40%. So,using the zero-point state tracking method can improve regulation efficiency and quickly achieve adjustment of assembly force and torque between shaft and hole .
