In the top-down design process of part, with the continuous introduction of domain knowledge, the design state is gradually progressively transformed. In order to construct the normalized evolution process of part from function to structure, the mapping relationship between part function and structure constraint was analyzed, the transformation process of part design state was fully expressed, and the progressive multi-domain view model of part from function to structure semantics, part reduction structure to detailed structure was defined. Through the analysis of functional constraint, topological structure and functional relationship of the part model, and the analysis of functional time sequence, functional unit, geometric structure, shape and position, assembly and evolution sequence of the part component unit, the part association constraint model based on functional constraint and structural constraint was established, and the abstract semantic knowledge was structured. Therefore, a top-down progressive multi-domain view model of part was constructed, which was composed of function view model, semantic description model of function structure transition, structure reduction view model and structure view model. According to the expression levels and requirements of part feature information, the above view models were expressed to reflect the design knowledge in different forms and stages of part, and thus a part object definition model with characteristics of process, dynamic, hierarchical and progressive evolution was formed. Based on the multi-domain view model, multiple interpretations of the part structure could be formed, so as to realize the function-driven serial design of the part structure, expand the narrow scope of the part structure design, help to realize the model-based computer-aided part design, and promote the automation and intelligence of the product design process.

The two-stage hydro-mechanical continuously variable transmission can realize continuously variable transmission with large transmission ratio and wide transmission range, reduce the rated power of hydraulic components and improve the whole transmission efficiency. The kinematic characteristics of the transmission mechanism are related to the setting of the working mode and the performance of the whole vehicle. This paper analyzed three types of split and confluence forms of hydro-mechanical continuously variable transmission mechanism: the split-torque confluence-speed type, the split-speed confluence-speed type and the split-speed confluence-torque type. Using the lever method, the influence of the position of external force components on the distribution of mechanical points, the positive and negative phases of hydraulic components and the power split type were studied, and the feasible form of split and confluence of the two-stage hydro-mechanical continuously variable transmission mechanism was obtained. The relationship between the rotation speed of hydraulic components and the output rotation speed in each segment was summarized, and the connection law of the output rotation speed between segments was studied based on the theory of no speed difference range-shift. Through the round-trip change of the positive and negative phases of the hydraulic components, the continuous variable variation of the output rotation speed of the two-stage hydro-mechanical continuous transmission was realized. A simulation platform of ZL50 loader was built, which adopted the hydro-mechanical continuously variable transmission of the split-torque confluence-speed and split-torque confluence-speed. The movement characteristics of the loader under typical V cycle working conditions were simulated, and the output torque and transmission efficiency of the transmission was analyzed. The result verified the correctness of the theoretical analysis result. The research reveals the motion characteristics of the hydro-mechanical continuously variable transmission mechanism and the motion connection law between the segments, which provides a theoretical basis for the design and engineering application of the hydro-mechanical continuously variable transmission mechanism.

In order to accurately simulate the placement task of users in VR (virtual reality) environment and avoid the low placement accuracy caused by the shaking of interaction devices, the interaction was carried out by using natural gestures. A prediction method of natural gesture interaction time for VR placement task based on improved Fitts Law was proposed. Firstly, the interaction logic of "gesture interaction-VR environment-VR interaction task" was constructed to establish the semantic mapping relationship between natural gesture and interaction task; secondly, according to the design principle of natural gesture, the natural gesture interaction experiment for VR placement task was carried out; then, combined with the characteristics of VR placement task, the moving distance, target tolerance and the size of the moving object were integrated into the classical Fitts Law, and the prediction model of natural gesture interaction time based on improved Fitts Law was established; finally, the regression analysis of the experimental data was carried out. It was found that the correlation coefficient R2=0.515 by fitting based on the classical Fitts Law, and there was a large deviation between the predicted value and the real value of interaction time, which indicated that the classical Fitts Law was not suitable to predict the natural gesture interaction time for VR placement task; the correlation coefficient R2=0.970 based on improved Fitts Law, and the predicted value of interaction time was consistent with the real value, which showed that improved Fitts Law had good applicability and could accurately predict the natural gesture interaction time for VR placement task. The research results enrich the VR interaction mode, and can provide guidance for the design of human-computer interaction interface in VR environment.

The large number of indirect contact between people in the narrow space of the box elevator has brought hidden dangers to the spread of COVID-19 (Corona Virus Disease 2019). How to inhibit the survival and spread of the virus in the elevator has become an urgent problem to be solved. Therefore, by analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of axiomatic design (AD) and Tteoriya Resheniya Izoblateskikh Zadatch (TRIZ), an innovative design method integrating AD and TRIZ was proposed for different design types, such as breakthrough design, adaptive design and variable parameter design. Firstly, the function requirements of the product were analyzed to determine its design type, and the function requirements was decomposed by the AD theory, and the function-structure tree was constructed by the TRIZ. Then, the coupling judgment of the initial design scheme was carried out, and the TRIZ was used to decouple. After several iterations, the final design scheme was obtained. Taking the public interactive control panel and the enclosed car of the traditional box elevator as the research object, facing the function requirements of preventing virus transmission and eliminating virus, the innovative design method integrating AD and TRIZ was adopted to design the epidemic prevention function module of the box elevator, and the non-public contact interactive control module and the conditional disinfection and sterilization module for the traditional box elevator were designed. The innovative design example made a beneficial attempt to expand from the traditional mechanical structure design to the new human-computer interaction mode design, which verified the feasibility of the innovative design method integrating AD and TRIZ. The research results can provide effective theoretical support for the conceptual innovative design of new functional modules of products.

The rigidity of the tandem machine tool is restricted by the weakest module with the smallest rigidity. In order to improve the rigidity of the machine tool, a new method for identifying weak modules of the machine tool is proposed. Firstly, the modular design method was used to divide the machine tool into modules. Then, the smallest module including the spindle was taken as the basic module, and the modules in the same series structure were added one by one; by analyzing the deformation increment of the structure after adding a module, the weak module of the machine tool was determined. Finally, the structure of the identified weak module was improved. Taking the overall quality, X, Y, Z direction deformation and dynamic characteristics of the machine tool as evaluation indexes, the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method based on the entropy weight method was used to compare the performance of the machine tool before and after structure improvement, so as to verify the feasibility of the proposed method. The results of weak module identification example of the C-type friction stir welding machine tool showed that, the proposed method could not only accurately identify the weak module of the machine tool, but also accurately obtain the weak direction of the weak module. The research results can lay a theoretical foundation for the improvement of machine tool structures.

Screw motor is the power source of the screw drilling tool, and the reasonable design of interference between the stator and the rotor is very important for the working performance and service life of the motor. Firstly, a two-dimensional meshing finite element model of the stator and the rotor of the screw motor was established, and the influence of working pressure and bottom hole temperature on the stator profile was analyzed. Then, based on the evaluation criterion of sealing performance, the contact stress of the stator and the rotor under different interference was calculated, and a non-uniform interference design method with different interference at the large and small diameters of the stator was proposed. Finally, based on the rotor of the screw motor, the stator profile considering the influence of pressure and temperature was designed, which theoretically realized the effective sealing and good contact between the stator and the rotor. The bench test results of the screw drilling tool showed that, compared with the common interference design method, the non-uniform interference design method considering the influence of pressure and temperature could make the screw motor have higher efficiency. The research results can provide a certain reference for the design of the interference and other parameters of screw motors.

In order to solve the problem of low straightening accuracy and low standardization in manual straightening of cable, the finite element simulation and experimental analysis of straightening process of a new type of power cable were carried out, and the change rule of cable deflection in the process of cable straightening was studied. The finite element model of semi-circular cable was established by ANSYS workbench software, and the cable straightening situation when the indentation amount was 0.5 mm was analyzed by instantaneous dynamic; on this basis, the straightening process of the cable under the same feed speed, different inner diameter of the cable, the same inner diameter of the cable and different feed speed was analyzed, and the relationship between the cable deflection and the inner diameter and feed speed of the cable was studied; the bending cable sample was prepared and the straightening experiment was carried out. The results showed that the straightening result of the cable was in line with the expected result under a given indentation amount of 0.5 mm; the inner diameter and feed speed of the cable had great influence on the cable deflection. The larger the cable inner diameter was, the faster the feed speed was, the larger the cable deflection was, the lower the straightening accuracy was, and the deflection variation trend was nonlinear. The error between the simulation value and the experiment value was within 10%, which verified the accuracy of the finite element model of cable straightener.

HUANG Long-yi, WANG Hua, JI Xu
Chinese Journal of Engineering Design, 2021, 28(3): 350-357.
https://doi.org/10.3785/j.issn.1006-754X.2021.00.042
Bolts are the key fasteners of slewing bearings. In order to investigate the influence of working parameters of fastening bolts on the load distribution of the slewing bearing, a finite element equivalent modeling method for the three-row roller slewing bearing is proposed. Firstly, based on the structural characteristics and stress conditions of the three-row roller slewing bearing, a finite element model of the slewing bearing considering fastening bolts was established. From the aspects of reducing the calculation amount and ensuring the calculation efficiency, the non-linear spring element was used to simulate the roller, and the load distribution of the slewing bearing was quickly obtained through the finite element simulation. Then, the static loading experiment for the three-row roller slewing bearing was designed and carried out. By comparing the finite element simulation results with the experimental results, the accuracy of the constructed finite element model was verified. Finally, based on the constructed finite element model, the influence of the bolt preload and the friction coefficient of bolt joint surface on the load distribution of the three-row roller slewing bearing was analyzed. The simulation results showed that the bolt preload had a significant effect on the load distribution of the three-row roller slewing bearing, while the friction coefficient of bolt joint surface had a weak effect; the maximum load of the upper row roller increased with the increase of the bolt preload, and the maximum load of the lower row roller decreased with the increase of the bolt preload; under the combined action of axial force and tilting moment, the load of the lower row roller of the three-row roller slewing bearing was generally higher than that of the upper row roller, so the sufficient bolt preload could improve the bearing capacity of the slewing bearing, while the insufficient bolt preload would make the lower row roller bear more load, leading to the premature failure of the slewing bearing. The research result can provide reference for the installation and maintenance of slewing bearings.

Firstly, according to the functions of shearer components, the shearer was divided into nine parts: front and rear drums, front and rear rocker arms, fuselage, front and rear guide sliding shoes and front and rear smooth sliding shoes; then, based on the Lagrange method, the three-directional coupling dynamics model of the shearer was constructed; then, the coordinate coupling problem of the constructed dynamics model was analyzed, and the Wilson-θ![]() ![]() algorithm was used to solve the dynamics model; finally, the three-directional vibration acceleration of the sliding shoe was obtained through the shearer vibration experiment and compared with the simulation results. The results showed that the median vibration accelerations of the sliding shoe obtained through the simulation and experiment were concentrated at the balance position "0 m/s 2", but the quartile full range of simulation results was larger than the experimental results, that was, the simulation results were relatively divergent, while the experimental results were more aggregated; the correlation coefficients between simulation results and experimental results were both greater than 0.3, showing a real correlation, and the correlation coefficients of some data were greater than 0.5, showing a significant correlation; in the P value histogram of simulation results and experimental results, the P value of each group of data was greater than 0.05, which indicated that there was no significant difference between the simulation results and experimental results within the 95% confidence interval, so the simulation results could approximately replace the experimental results and they had a certain accuracy and practicability.
