Preferably, in the step S3, the step of converting the rigid body direction angle in the local coordinate system to obtain the reference point in the torsion direction in the finished vehicle coordinate system includes the following steps:

In this embodiment, taking a bushing with a required design as an example, the process of determining the motion envelope of the pull rod where the bushing is located is as follows:

as shown in fig. 3, first, an Adams dynamics model is constructed from a 3D suspension system model. Subsequently, a request object can be created for the suspension upper tie rod on which each bushing is positioned, so that the position of each component at any moment under the preset working condition can be determined subsequently. In this embodiment, two ends of each pull rod are respectively provided with a bushing, and the bushings are sleeved in the end portions of the pull rods.

Then, design parameters including vehicle parameters, suspension system spring rate and preload, and bushing rate, etc. are input to the Adams dynamic model, and the dynamic model is adjusted to a static equilibrium state. And then, carrying out simulation calculation on the dynamic model according to a preset working condition.

The position CM position (centroid coordinate) and the rigid body direction angle (PSI, THETA, PHI) of the pull rod where the bushing is located at each moment can be output according to the simulation calculation result, and the centroid coordinate and the rigid body direction angle of the pull rod at each moment are input into a table, and specific data are shown in the following table 1.

TABLE 1

As shown in fig. 4, the radial and axial direction reference points of the bushing are first calculated and determined according to the relationship between the local coordinate system of the tie rod and the coordinate system of the entire vehicle, that is, the relationship between the local coordinate system of the tie rod and the coordinate system of the entire vehicle is compared, and the rigid direction angle in the local coordinate system is converted according to the following conversion formula to obtain the reference point in the torsion direction in the coordinate system of the entire vehicle. The reference point of the torsion direction under the whole vehicle coordinate system is the reference point of the corresponding displacement and torsion direction of the pull rod under the whole vehicle coordinate system.

Specifically, the barycentric coordinates of the pull rod under the whole vehicle coordinate system are (x, y, z), the rigid body direction angle of the pull rod is (PSI, THETA, PHI), and the rigid body direction angle determines the coordinates of the pull rod. Under a complete vehicle coordinate system, a complete vehicle component coordinate system is established by taking a pull rod centroid coordinate as an origin, a point A is taken on a Y axis, the Y1 coordinate is (Y +50), and a reference point M (x1, Y1 and z1) in the radial direction can be obtained through a conversion formula according to the relation between a pull rod local coordinate system and the complete vehicle coordinate system:

x1＝x+50×tan(180-PSI)

y1＝y+50

z1＝tan(90-THETA)×50+z

similarly, a point B is taken on the Z-axis of the finished vehicle component coordinate system constructed by taking the center-of-mass coordinate of the pull rod as the origin, the Z1 coordinate is (Z +50), and the reference point N (x2, y2, Z2) in the axial direction can be obtained through a conversion formula:

x2＝x+50×tan(PHI-90)

y2＝y-50×tan(90-THETA)

z2＝z+50

in this embodiment, according to the above conversion formula, the position information of the tie bar at each time point obtained through simulation calculation can be obtained by using a table input formula, and the specific data is shown in table 2 below.

TABLE 2

As shown in fig. 5, a table macro file is edited, and the position information of the drawbar at each time is input into the CATIA software.

In this embodiment, the deformation of the bushing is the rigid displacement at the joint of the tie rod and the bushing, so the dimension of the outermost rigid body on the tie rod at the bushing can be directly measured, and further the gap at the outermost end does not need to be measured after the deformation of the bushing is converted into the rigid body displacement.

Therefore, when the clearances between the bush at the connecting point and the pull rod and the auxiliary frame are measured, only the contour envelope of the end part of the pull rod needs to be made according to the displacement of the end part of the pull rod, then the contour envelope of the pull rod at the connecting point and the clearance between the auxiliary frame are directly measured and used as the clearances between the bush and the auxiliary frame, and whether the layout requirements are met or not is checked.

As shown in fig. 6-8, further, VB programming is performed on the CATIA macro program based on the coordinates of the center of mass of the tie rod and the reference point of the torsion direction at each moment, so as to automatically obtain the position of the tie rod at each moment, where the position information of the tie rod at each moment constitutes the motion envelope of the tie rod, including the axial and radial deformation displacements and the torsion deformation of the bushing and the tie rod, and therefore, the stiffness characteristic of a single bushing is no longer provided.

And finally, introducing the contour envelope of the pull rod into a 3D suspension system model, acquiring the gap between the pull rod and the auxiliary frame, and checking whether the arrangement gap meets the design requirement.

As shown in fig. 9, the checking clearance in this embodiment is 3.9mm, and it is observed that the motion envelope includes radial, axial and torsional deformations, that is, the comprehensive minimum clearance between the bushing and the subframe during the bouncing process of the suspension system is 3.9mm, and the checking is performed according to the enterprise clearance judgment standard.

Further, according to the method of the embodiment, the motion envelope of each bushing under various working conditions can be accurately obtained, and the motion envelope is a simulated result after the mutual influence of all the bushings of the system is considered, so that the accuracy is higher, and a more accurate boundary can be provided for the system arrangement and the design of parts.

Optionally, the method of making the motion envelope of the component and the associated conversion formula and program may be templated.

In the embodiment, an Adams dynamic model is built by using Adams software, a centroid coordinate of a component in a finished automobile coordinate system and a rigid body direction angle of the component in a local coordinate system are obtained through model simulation, then an envelope of the outer contour of the bushing can be made through connection of an Excel table macro and a CATIA and an automatic generation mode of a CATIA macro program, the position of the outer contour of the component at each moment is automatically generated after the program is written by using the CATIA macro program, and the axial direction, the radial direction and the torsional deformation of the component can be reflected.
