Description
Firearm assembly precision control method and system supporting large number of interchangeable assemblies Technical Field The invention belongs to the field of assembly precision control, and particularly relates to a firearm assembly precision control method and system supporting a large number of interchangeable assemblies. Background Assembly accuracy control refers to ensuring assembly accuracy of a product during product design stages and part machining assembly processes. In the method for ensuring the assembly precision of mechanical products, a large number of exchange methods are generally used in the case of higher assembly precision requirements and more component rings. Compared with a complete exchange method, the method has the advantages that under the same assembly precision requirement, the tolerance of parts designed according to the large number exchange method is larger, and the economy is better. Most of the existing researches on assembly precision control technology mainly focus on tolerance modeling and tolerance analysis optimization technology in a design stage. In the assembly tolerance analysis, distribution or optimization by the large number interchange method, it is assumed that the geometric parameters of each part or the mathematical transformation amounts thereof obey a certain probability distribution, and each component ring (or geometric component) is independent from each other. In order to realize the large number exchange assembly of parts, statistical tolerance analysis methods which can be adopted in the design of assembly precision mainly comprise a root mean square method (RSS), a Croft method, an extended Taylor series approximation method, a Hasofer-Lind index method, a numerical integration or product approximation method, a field opening method, a Monte Carlo simulation method, a nuclear density estimation method and the like. In the process of part processing and assembly production, the existing quality control method of assembly precision is mainly divided into two types, namely (1) an assembly precision monitoring and predicting method based on assembly precision measurement data and (2) an assembly precision control method based on part processing quality detection data. The first type of method utilizes the actually measured assembly precision data in the assembly process to establish a relation model between the assembly characteristic parameters and the assembly precision targets through methods such as machine learning, data mining, state space models and the like. The second type of method based on the quality detection data of the parts can be applied to the interchange assembly mode, in the production practice, a sampling inspection method is generally adopted, a batch of parts are extracted from the finished parts, the mean value and standard deviation of geometric parameters of the parts are counted, the process capability index (also called as process capability index) of the parts is predicted, or the overall qualification rate of the parts is predicted according to a probability distribution function. The common measurement index parameters of the process capability index are Cp and Cpk, and the method is applicable to the conditions of not considering mean deviation and considering mean deviation respectively. When the process capability index is larger or the predicted overall qualification rate is larger, the geometric parameters of the processed parts are considered to meet the assembly precision requirement of the large-number exchange method, and then the assembly precision is deduced to meet the design requirement. Firearms are a typical type of mechanical product. The assembly precision design of the firearm product is generally characterized in that the assembly precision requirement of dimensional tolerance is high, but the number of component rings of related parts is more. The assembly structure of many parts in the firearm has the characteristic of symmetry about a central plane, and the assembly precision control method commonly used in the production of firearm products at present is a measurement inspection and manual repair and frustration assembly method during two-dimensional dimension chain design and assembly. In order to ensure the economy of parts processing, the commonly adopted firearm assembly precision design method generally designs the size of a certain part into a repair ring, converts a part of geometric tolerance zone into a 'ring' in a size chain, and reduces the processing precision requirement of other matched parts, and a great amount of repair work is inevitably required when firearm products are assembled. The existing assembly accuracy control method has the following technical problems: (1) A prerequisite for successful application of the assembly accuracy monitoring prediction method based on the assembly accuracy measurement data is that there is a large amount of assembly measurement history data as
