The invention discloses a stacked paper folding structure with
variable stiffness characteristics, which comprises a plurality of
layers of paper folding tubes stacked up and down, each paper foldingtube comprises two symmetrically arranged paper folding plates, each paper folding plate comprises a plurality of basic units, the basic units are connected in sequence, each basic unit comprises n small planes and two large planes, n is an even number greater than 2, the
width ratio of the large plane to the small plane is n / 2, and the large plane and the small plane are parallelograms. Due to the fact that all
layers of paper folding pipes of the stacked paper folding structure are different in rigidity, when the stacked paper folding structure is subjected to compression force from top to bottom, the stacked paper folding structure generates a layer-by-layer progressive
buckling instability process, firstly, the paper folding
pipe with the minimum rigidity is subjected to
buckling instability, and then the paper folding
pipe with the second small rigidity is triggered to be subjected to
buckling instability; therefore, the paper folding
pipe with the maximum rigidity is obtained through
recursion, and then the variable rigidity characteristic of the stacked paper folding structure is achieved. According to specific requirements, multiple
layers of paper folding pipes with different rigidities can be stacked, and multiple
variable stiffness characteristics are achieved.
