Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of micro-nano positioning, and particularly relates to a piezoelectric stick-slip rotary motor. BACKGROUND

[0002] The piezoelectric stick-slip rotary motor is a precision rotary displacement driver capable of realizing 360° rotation and micro-nano radian high-resolution. It is based on the slow extension and rapid shortening (rapid extension and slow shortening) of the piezoelectric actuator under the action of asymmetric sawtooth wave voltage, and realizes the forward and reverse rotary motion of the motor due to the inconsistent dynamic and static friction between the stator and the rotor. According to the different driving principles, the step piezoelectric driver can be divided into ultrasonic, inchworm and piezoelectric stick-slip drivers, each of which has its advantages and disadvantages.

[0003] The ultrasonic driver has the advantages of compact structure and fast moving speed, but its energy consumption is high; the inchworm driver has high efficiency, but its mechanical structure is complex and the moving speed is low; compared with the above piezoelectric drivers, the stick-slip driver has high motion accuracy and simple mechanical structure.

[0004] Compared with the electromagnetic motor, the piezoelectric stick-slip rotary motor has the advantages of simple control, no magnetic field interference, no end effect and thrust fluctuation. Therefore, in recent years, it has been widely used in the fields of biomedicine, ultra-precision machining and the like. However, the current piezoelectric stick-slip rotary motor still has the following disadvantages:

[0005] 1) Large volume and complex structure of the motor;

[0006] 2) Complex assembly and adjustment process between the stator and the rotor;

[0007] 3) Difficult to realize super 360° rotary motion;

[0008] 4) Large rotary displacement backhaul, small driving force and speed. SUMMARY

[0009] The present application aims to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, and provides a piezoelectric stick-slip rotary motor with compact structure, simple assembly and adjustment between the stator and the rotor, super 360° rotary motion, large driving force and speed.

[0010] The technical scheme adopted by the present application to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: a piezoelectric stick-slip rotary motor, comprising a first rack, a first piezoelectric rotary mechanism, a rotor, a second piezoelectric rotary mechanism and a second rack arranged in sequence.

[0014] The first piezoelectric rotating mechanism is powered to drive the first cone head to rotate, and the first cone head drives the mover to rotate through the static friction between the first cone head and the first pit; the second piezoelectric rotating mechanism is powered to drive the second cone head to rotate, and the second cone head drives the mover to rotate through the static friction between the second cone head and the second pit.

[0015] When the mover needs to continuously rotate, a voltage is applied to the first piezoelectric rotating mechanism, the voltage strength is slowly increased from 0 to a peak value, the first cone head slowly drives the mover to rotate, and when the voltage reaches the peak value, the voltage is rapidly reduced to 0, the first cone head is rapidly reset, and the cycle is repeated; the waveform of the voltage applied to the second piezoelectric rotating mechanism is the same as that of the first piezoelectric rotating mechanism, except that the time when the voltage is applied to the second piezoelectric rotating mechanism is in the process of the voltage of the first piezoelectric rotating mechanism from 0 to the peak value, so that when the first cone head is reset, the second cone head still drives the mover to rotate, and in the next cycle, when the second cone head is reset, the first cone head still drives the mover to rotate, and finally the mover rotates a certain angle in a positive direction in one cycle; repeating the above steps can realize continuous rotating movement of the motor, and the continuously rotating second cone head can correct the back error of the mover when the first cone head is reset. Adjusting the distance between the first rack and the second rack can adjust the friction force received by the mover. The first guide column has at least two guide columns to guide the axial movement of the first piezoelectric rotating mechanism, and the second guide column has at least two guide columns to guide the axial movement of the second piezoelectric rotating mechanism.
