Offset parameter calibration system and method for automobile crash test
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of automobile collision calibration, and particularly relates to a system and a method for calibrating offset parameters of an automobile collision test.
Background
The management rules of the whole vehicle collision test mainly comprise 15 working conditions marked by national standards, C-NCAP, C-IASI and Euro NCAP aiming at an ACU controller algorithm, wherein partial working conditions need to test the vehicle to carry out local overlap collision tests relative to a barrier system (fixed, movable, rigid, deformed barriers and the like), and the overlapping rates are 25%, 40% and 50% respectively. The effectiveness of the test vehicle on occupant protection, the advancement of the vehicle body structure design, the maintainability of the vehicle after collision and the accuracy and the robustness of the ACU algorithm configured by the vehicle under different overlapping rates are evaluated.
Taking the "25% frontal offset crash test procedure on driver side (2023 edition)" as an example in the chinese insurance automobile safety index (C-IASI) evaluation procedure, it is required that the test vehicle and the fixed rigid barrier perform frontal crash at 25% overlap rate on driver side. That is, the test vehicle is required to strike a rigid barrier with an edge having a radius of 150mm at a speed of 64.4km/h + -1 km/h, and the width of the overlapping portion in the vehicle traveling direction (i.e., X direction) must be strictly controlled within a range of 25% + -1% of the vehicle width (1% being about 17mm to 20 mm) at the first moment when the two are in contact, otherwise the test is judged to be ineffective. The factors for analyzing the influence overlapping rate are as follows, 1, before the test, the minimum offset distance between the collision arc edge of the rigid barrier and the center line of the traction track in the Y direction is 25% of the width of the vehicle, the position error requirement is less than or equal to 1mm, 2, before the test, 3 collision mark lines are required to be marked on the test vehicle hood, respectively, 24%, 25% and 26% of the width of the vehicle, and are parallel to the X-direction center plane, the measurement error requirement is less than or equal to 1mm, 3, when the test vehicle is started, the X-direction center plane of the test vehicle coincides with the center line of the traction track, the measurement error requirement is less than or equal to 1mm, 4, after the test, the vehicle passes through the acceleration process of about 90m, and the Y-direction offset error is less than or equal to 10mm. Because the factor 4 is greatly influenced by the adjustment states of the vehicle chassis in different development stages, the error cannot be further reduced by the technical means, and therefore whether the factors 1,2 and 3 are accurately measured is the key for influencing whether the test is successful.
At present, a metric ruler is commonly adopted in the industry to be matched with a laser level meter with a tripod for distance measurement, and the defects of 1, repeated steps and low efficiency are obvious. Each set of the specified dimensions requires that a metric ruler is used to measure whether the line of the laser on the ground is parallel to the center of the track, and if the laser angle is slightly deviated, multiple measurements are needed to ensure the parallelism, and the whole process requires at least 15 minutes. In addition, if the number of the sizes is multiple, the steps are repeated, so that the test preparation time is further prolonged, and 2, the manual measurement has errors, and the accuracy is poor. Because of the need of matching with personnel for multiple measurement, the measurement deviation can enlarge the parallel error of the laser and the track on a large scale, and 3, the number of people is large, and the input-output ratio is low. Because the laser needs to be ensured to be parallel to the whole size of the track, a straight line is determined according to two points, the measuring point needs to be at least one position at a distance from each other, and more points can be actually obtained, so that at least two persons are required to coordinate and measure.
