Problems solved by technology

[0003] The production and manufacture of traditional macroscopic mechanical systems is often achieved by assembling individual manufactured parts, but for micro-scale micromachines, even if individual parts can be precisely manufactured, the final assembly of these parts but hard to achieve
Even with the help of special micro-mechanical assembly equipment, the process is often accompanied by problems such as parts that are too small to assemble, physical damage during the assembly process, and contamination of parts by the assembly environment.
Moreover, when designing a micromachine, the designer also needs to consider the assembly method of each part and the corresponding operating space and structure, which not only makes the micromachine unable to be designed smaller, but also limits the designer's design ideas

Abstract

The invention provides an assembly-free manufacturing method and a device for a micro mechanical structure. The method comprises the following steps: establishing a three-dimensional model of each part of a target mechanical structure, digitally assembling the three-dimensional model into integral machinery, carrying out hierarchical slicing on the integral machinery to obtain each layer of processing graphs, and carrying out processing path planning on graphs on each layer to generate a numerical control program; taking a workpiece substrate to deposit a first material as a sacrificial material in a micro electro-deposition mode, carrying out area-selecting removal on the deposited sacrificial material according to the generated numerical control program in a micro electrical removal processing mode, etching out an area for depositing a structural material in the next step and depositing a second material as the structural material, repeating the steps until the sacrificial material at each layer and the structural material are completely shaped; and finally, removing the sacrificial material to release the mechanical structure, thereby obtaining the target mechanical structure. The invention further provides a device capable of realizing the assembly-free manufacturing method for the micro mechanical structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of micro-mechanical manufacturing, and in particular relates to an assembly-free manufacturing method and device for micro-mechanical mechanisms, which specifically relate to micro-electrochemical deposition and micro-electrodemachining (micro-electrolysis and micro-electric spark) technologies, which can The one-time integral forming manufacturing of the micromechanical movable mechanism without assembly is realized at the millimeter and millimeter scales. Background technique [0002] Today's industrial products tend to be more and more integrated and miniaturized, such as micro-motors with a diameter of only 1mm, micro-cameras the size of fingernails, and micro-gyroscopes the size of buttons. These products are composed of micro-electro-mechanical systems. For now, the manufacture of individual micro- or even nano-scale mechanical parts has been realized, but there are still many problems in the manufact...
