For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0017] Referring to the drawings Figure 1 , a low-rotation pendulum device for verifying the gyroscopic effect of a cold atom gyroscope, for verifying the gyroscopic effect of a cold atom gyroscope, comprising a vibration isolation platform 1, a first voice coil motor 2, a second voice coil motor 3, a probe support 4, a first voice coil motor support 5, a second voice coil motor support 6, a voice coil motor driving system 7, an inclinometer 8 and a control system 9;

[0018] The probe support 4 is flat, and a probe is arranged on the probe support 4, and the probe support 4 is placed on the vibration isolation platform 1; the vibration isolation platform 1 is a device for reducing or eliminating the influence of external vibration and shock on precision instruments, equipment or experiments. The vibration isolation platform 1 is usually composed of a series of springs, air bags, shock-absorbing materials or piezoelectric crystals and other materials to absorb and isolate external vibration interference while maintaining the stability of the equipment. The principle of the vibration isolation platform 1 is to separate the equipment from the outside world through the elastic elements on the platform, and to suppress the interference of external vibration by using the natural frequency of the material. When external vibration acts on the vibration isolation platform 1, these elastic elements will absorb the vibration energy and eliminate the vibration by counteracting force, thereby maintaining the stability of the equipment. The probe part of the cold atom gyroscope is placed on the pendulum device, and at the same time, the low-rotation pendulum device for verifying the gyroscopic effect of the cold atom gyroscope is placed on the vibration isolation platform 1, ensuring the vibration isolation effect of the system.

[0019] The two ends of the probe support 4 protrude to the outside of the vibration isolation platform 1, and the bottom ends of the probe support 4 are symmetrically provided with a first voice coil motor 2 and a second voice coil motor 3, and the bottom ends of the first voice coil motor 2 and the second voice coil motor 3 are respectively supported by a first voice coil motor support 5 and a second voice coil motor support 6; the output ends of the first voice coil motor 2 and the second voice coil motor 3 are connected with the bottom end of the probe support 4, and the movement direction of the output shaft of the first voice coil motor 2 is opposite to that of the output shaft of the second voice coil motor 3, so as to drive the probe support 4 to swing, thereby realizing the swing of the probe; the voice coil motor is an electromagnetic mechanical converter, which is usually used in precise driving and positioning control applications. Two voice coil motors are used on the swing table device, one of which is connected in positive and the other is connected in negative, so that one side pushes the probe support plate and the other side pulls the support plate, thereby realizing the swing of the probe. The working principle of the voice coil motor is to use the principle of electromagnetic induction, and the magnetic field generated by current excitation acts on the coil, so that the coil generates force and movement. The coil is usually installed in a magnetic field, and when the coil is electrified, the coil will be affected by electromagnetic force and move towards the magnetic field. By controlling the current direction and size, precise position and speed control can be realized.

[0020] The probe is stably and firmly placed on the support, and will not move due to the swing of the swing table. The voice coil motor support 5 and the voice coil motor support 6 are used to place the voice coil motor and support the swing table, and are designed as telescopic structures, which are convenient for adjusting the driving position of the voice coil motor.

[0021] Referring to Figure 3 , the voice coil motor driving system 7 includes a controller and a power amplifier, the controller is electrically connected with the first voice coil motor 2 and the second voice coil motor 3 through the power amplifier, and the voice coil motor driving system 7 controls the actions of the first voice coil motor 2 and the second voice coil motor 3; specifically, the controller is the core part of the voice coil motor driving system 7, which is responsible for generating current and controlling the position and speed of the voice coil motor. The controller uses a digital signal processor to realize algorithm and motion control functions. The power amplifier is a device that converts the current signal generated by the controller into a high-voltage and high-current signal required by the voice coil motor. The voice coil motor is an electromechanical integrated device composed of a coil, a magnet and a support structure. The coil is fixed on the support structure, and the magnet is fixed on the static part. When electrified, the current in the coil will generate a magnetic field, which interacts with the magnet to generate electromagnetic force, so that the coil moves in the support structure.

[0022] The inclinometer 8 is placed on the probe support 4, and the inclinometer 8 records the swing information of the probe support 4; the principle of measuring the angular velocity of the inclinometer 8 is based on the motion law of the inclinometer 8 when it is subjected to rotation. When the inclinometer 8 is placed on a rotating object, due to the action of centrifugal force, the inclinometer 8 will tilt and form a circular liquid plumb line on the surface of the object. If the angular velocity of the object increases, the inclination of the liquid plumb line will increase, and if the angular velocity of the object decreases, the inclination of the liquid plumb line will decrease. Therefore, by measuring the inclination of the liquid plumb line, the angular velocity of the object can be indirectly measured.

[0023] With reference to Figure 2 And Figure 4 , the control system 9 includes two parts, 1. The control system 9 controls the driving system of the voice coil motor, which controls the output frequency and power of the voice coil motor 2 and the voice coil motor 3, so that the swing table swings uniformly at a low speed, and the swing table rotates uniformly in a small range. There must be acceleration and reverse on both sides, and a certain time is needed to maintain uniform speed in the middle. The control system (9) controls the voice coil motor 2 and the voice coil motor 3 of the positive and negative connection, which can realize the uniform rotation of the swing table in a small range. 2. Signal acquisition system, inclinometer 8 is placed on the swing table, records the swing data of the swing table. The control system 9 collects and collects the data of the inclinometer 8. Compared with the rotation data measured by the cold atom gyroscope, the gyro effect of the cold atom gyroscope is verified. The acquisition card used by the signal acquisition system is a 24-bit resolution domestic Altai NET8814-4. The acquisition card supports high-speed acquisition, multi-channel acquisition and high-precision acquisition, has high stability and is easy to use.

[0024] The cold atom gyroscope is placed on the probe support 4, and the probe support 4 is placed on the vibration isolation platform 1, which ensures the vibration isolation effect of the whole system. The probe support 4 is designed with a groove, so that the cold atom gyroscope probe is placed stably and firmly on the swing table. The support 5 and the support 6 of the voice coil motor are used to place the voice coil motor and support the swing table, and are designed as telescopic structure, which is convenient for adjusting the driving position of the voice coil motor 2 and the voice coil motor 3. The control system 9 controls the voice coil motor driving system 7, and after receiving the signal of the control system 9, the signal is amplified by a low-noise amplifier and transmitted to the voice coil motor, so that the voice coil motor 2 and the voice coil motor 3 rotate in opposite directions, thereby making the swing table swing up and down. At the same time, the control program needs to ensure the working state of the voice coil motor, that is, the swing table swings uniformly at a small angle. The inclinometer 8 is placed on the swing table, and records the swing data of the swing table. The control system 9 collects and collects the data of the inclinometer 8. Compared with the rotation data measured by the cold atom gyroscope, the gyro effect of the cold atom gyroscope is verified.
