Problems solved by technology

However, due to the difference in size between large and small cells, stress concentration is likely to occur at the junction of cells. Therefore, consideration should be given to improving the mechanical properties of cells without changing the size of the junction between cells to achieve Gradient Design of Structural Properties

The middle ring can be in any shape, and is arranged between the upper ring and the lower ring, and the axes of the upper ring, middle ring, and lower ring coincide with the central axis of the cell structure.

[0054] The upper connecting rods have several pieces; the two ends of each upper connecting rod are respectively connected to the upper ring and the middle ring and are uniformly distributed between the upper ring and the middle ring in an oblique manner, and each upper connecting rod is relative to the ...

Embodiment 2

[0061] Such as Figure 4-6 As shown, a specific embodiment of the gradient lattice structure of the present invention is disclosed, which includes three layers of cell layers arranged in layers, and from top to bottom are the upper cell layer 6-1, the middle cell layer Layer 6-2 and lower cell layer 6-3. Or, the cell layer of the present invention has only two layers, or, the cell layer of the present invention has four layers, five layers... At this time, the rigidity of each cell layer arranged in stacks, from above Gradient change from bottom to top.

[0062] Each cell layer includes several cell structures with the same stiffness; for each cell structure in the same cell layer, the upper and lower rings of two adjacent cell structures are connected by beams , and the middle rings of two adjacent cell structures are arranged alternately.

[0063] When the cell layer is multi-layered, between two adjacent cell layers, the cell layer above is the upper cell layer, and the ...

Embodiment 3

[0076] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 2 lies in that the stiffness variation trend of each cell layer is realized in different ways. Specifically, in this embodiment, as Figure 7As shown, the diameters of the upper connecting rods and lower connecting rods of each cell structure on the same axis are set according to an increasing gradient from top to bottom, that is, the upper connecting rods / lower connecting rods of each cell structure in the upper cell layer The diameter of the connecting rod, the diameter of the upper connecting rod / lower connecting rod of each cell structure in the middle cell layer, and the diameter of the upper connecting rod / lower connecting rod of each cell structure in the lower cell layer are set in order from large to small; while in The included angle ϴ, included angle -ϴ, and inner diameter of the middle ring of each cell structure on the same axis are all corresponding to the same, so as to realize the gradient change of t...

Abstract

The invention discloses a gradient lattice energy-absorbing structure and a chiral cell with programmable stiffness thereof, and a 3D printing method. The chiral cell includes a cell structure, and the cell structure includes an upper ring, a middle ring, a lower ring, an upper connecting rod, and a lower connecting rod; the upper ring and the lower ring have the same geometric shape, and the middle ring is located between the upper ring and the lower ring; There are several upper connecting rods; the two ends of each upper connecting rod are connected to the upper ring and the middle ring respectively and are evenly distributed obliquely between the upper ring and the middle ring, and there are several lower connecting rods; the two ends of each lower connecting rod are respectively Correspondingly connected with the lower ring and the middle ring and obliquely evenly distributed between the lower ring and the middle ring. Therefore, the cell structure of the present invention has a deformation behavior of axial compression and torsion, and shows zero Poisson's ratio characteristics during the compression process, that is, the overall cell structure does not expand outward during the compression process. Therefore, the The cell itself has a high platform stress and good impact resistance.
