Problems solved by technology

However, due to the large size difference of different layers of the structure, it not only puts forward requirements for manufacturing and processing, but also causes the structure to fail under a certain impact. Therefore, the patent "CN109163212" proposes a gradient lattice structure with a transition layer. However, this structure has the problem of node connection weakening that is common in gradient lattice structures, especially at the intersection of rods of different diameters
Under load, the joint stress concentration effect is prominent, which greatly affects the load-bearing characteristics of the overall structure

Embodiment 1

[0026] This embodiment discloses a unidirectional variant gradient lattice structure, which, on the basis of the traditional uniform lattice structure, extends the size of the unit cells to form a series of new unit cells with different topologies and relative densities, and then They are periodically arranged to form different layers, and finally combined to form a gradient structure with density gradient characteristics. Since this kind of gradient structure only changes the size of the unit cell, the rod diameter does not change, which makes the connection between different layers of the structure more stable, solves the problem of weakening of the connection of the traditional gradient structure, and improves the bearing capacity of the structure. The unique high energy absorption capacity of the gradient structure provides a reference for the design of protective devices with excellent impact resistance characteristics.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a lattice structure, in particular to a gradient lattice structure for additive manufacturing and a design method thereof. The structure is stable in connection, has a mechanical response different from the traditional lattice structure, and has the advantages of high strength, high stiffness and excellent energy absorption capacity. Background technique [0002] Lattice structure plays an important role in the lightweight design of aerospace, automobile and other fields due to its advantages of light weight, high specific strength and high specific stiffness. However, the complex internal microstructure of lattice structures poses a great challenge to traditional fabrication processes. With the development of additive manufacturing technology, it has become a trend to apply it to the fabrication of lattice structures. It can not only ensure the precision and forming quality of the internal complex microstructure, but also eff...
