Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of smart material actuators, and in particular to a binary-coded digital self-inductive piezoelectric stack device and a working method. Background Art
[0002] As a bridge connecting its electrical components and hydraulic mechanical components, the motor converter is one of the key components of the electro-hydraulic servo valve and even the hydraulic control system. The performance of the electro-mechanical converter is directly related to the performance indicators of the electro-hydraulic control system. Stacked piezoelectric materials are a type of motor conversion intelligent material that can output linear displacement under the action of an electric field. Compared with other forms of intelligent materials such as magnetostrictive materials and shape memory alloys, stacked piezoelectric materials have the advantages of small size, fast response, large output force, and simple driving method. Therefore, they are widely used in various electromechanical systems.
[0003] However, in terms of driving mode, existing stacked piezoelectric materials all adopt a series structure, where piezoelectric sheets of equal thickness are axially stacked, and excitation voltage is applied at the same time, and they are driven at the same time. The disadvantage of simultaneous driving is poor reliability. If a layer of piezoelectric material in the stack breaks down during operation, the entire piezoelectric stack will fail, and it will generate severe heat during operation.
[0004] As far as the driving signal is concerned, the existing stacked piezoelectric materials all use analog signals. The disadvantages of analog driving signals are serious hysteresis nonlinearity and poor anti-interference ability. In order to overcome the electromagnetic interference of the working environment, a complex control strategy needs to be designed. In the series structure, the maximum output displacement of the stacked piezoelectric material is adjusted by increasing the number of radially stacked piezoelectric sheets. Under the driving mode of analog signals, the output displacement amplitude of the stacked piezoelectric material is controlled by adjusting the voltage amplitude of the driving signal.
[0005] Since there is an inherent hysteresis nonlinearity between the driving signal and the output displacement of piezoelectric materials, scholars at home and abroad have proposed various feedforward control strategies in order to obtain linear output displacement.

Optics and Precision Engineering, 2016, 24(09): 2217-2223. In this paper, an improved PI model based on the stop operator is proposed, and the compensation effect of the improved PI model on hysteresis nonlinearity is verified by experimental methods. The results show that the hysteresis nonlinearity of the piezoelectric stack output can be effectively suppressed by feedforward compensation.
[0007] Reference 2: Zhu Bin, Zhu Yuchuan, Li Yuyang, et al. Research on hysteresis modeling and feedforward compensation of piezoelectric stack actuator [J]. Piezoelectrics and Acoustooptics, 2018, 40(1): 38-41, 46. A feedforward compensator based on an inverse model was designed for the dynamic hysteresis characteristics of the input voltage and output displacement of the piezoelectric stack actuator. The experimental results show that after compensation using the constructed hysteresis inverse model, the hysteresis loop of the piezoelectric stack actuator is reduced, but the nonlinearity of the output displacement decreases by only 3%.
[0008] In summary, although the series structure of the existing stacked piezoelectric materials and their analog driving method have the advantages of simple structure, convenient driving, high output accuracy, etc., their input and output have hysteresis nonlinearity, poor working reliability, severe heat generation, poor anti-interference ability and other disadvantages, which seriously limit the practical application of stacked piezoelectric materials, especially in fields such as aerospace that have high requirements on the reliability and anti-interference ability of motor converters.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention adopts a binary-coded digital self-sensing piezoelectric stack device, which includes: a self-sensing unit 1, a compensation unit 2, a digital driving unit 3 and a digital control unit 4.
[0030] The digital drive unit 3 is composed of n-level sheet-shaped third piezoelectric materials stacked axially, and the number of sheet-shaped third piezoelectric materials stacked in each level is 2 n -1 piece, that is, increasing step by step according to the binary arrangement. Figure 2As shown, the positive and negative electrodes of each level of the sheet-shaped third piezoelectric material are connected to each other to form a series connection, and the radial overlap between each level constitutes a parallel drive. The digital drive unit 3 outputs displacement under the drive of the digital control unit 4 outputting a binary-coded digital drive signal.
[0031] The compensation unit 2 is composed of a single piece of second piezoelectric material, and its thickness can be adjusted according to the actual working conditions; the digital drive unit 3 is installed on the compensation unit 2. The compensation unit 2 has two working modes: working mode 1 and working mode 2. Among them, working mode 1: the compensation unit 2 works under the drive of the precision compensation signal output by the digital control unit 4, and performs precision compensation on the output displacement of the digital drive unit 3 to improve the output precision of the digital piezoelectric stack displacement; working mode 2: replace the faulty piezoelectric material in the digital drive unit 3, and work under the drive of the digital control signal output by the digital controller 4 to ensure the reliability of the digital piezoelectric stack displacement output.
[0032] The self-sensing unit 1 is composed of a single piece of first piezoelectric material, and its thickness is adjustable according to actual working conditions; the compensation unit 2 is installed on the self-sensing unit 1. The self-sensing unit 1 is used to sense the output displacement of the digital driving unit 3.
[0033] The digital control unit 4 is connected to the digital drive unit 3, the compensation unit 2, and the self-sensing unit 1 through the I / O port. The digital control unit 4 specifically includes an acquisition module, a digital output module, and a motion control module. The number of output ports in the digital output module is n, which is determined by the number of levels of the digital drive unit 3, and one output port is corresponding to one level of piezoelectric material.
[0034] The working method of a binary-coded digital self-inductive piezoelectric stack device described in the present invention specifically comprises the following steps:
[0035] (1) Piezoelectric stack displacement output: Given a reference displacement signal; based on the reference displacement signal, the digital control unit outputs a binary-coded digital drive signal; the digital drive unit turns on the drive switches of each level of the piezoelectric stack, and the drive voltage acts on the positive and negative poles of the piezoelectric material of the stack to form a drive electric field, and the digital drive unit outputs the displacement;
[0036] (2) Displacement amplitude self-sensing: The self-sensing unit is squeezed by the digital drive unit, and the positive piezoelectric effect generates an induced electric field and outputs an induced voltage;
[0037] (3) Closed-loop control and precision compensation: The digital control unit collects the voltage signal output by the sensing unit, converts it into actual displacement and compares it with the given reference displacement signal to obtain the error; the motion control module performs logical judgment and operation based on the error to generate a binary-coded digital control signal and a precision compensation signal; the digital output module outputs the digital control signal to the digital drive unit to achieve closed-loop control of the device; the motion control module outputs the precision compensation signal to the compensation unit, and the compensation unit performs precision compensation on the displacement output by the digital drive unit.
[0038] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, for the four-level binary piezoelectric stack structure, the given reference displacement signal is ε r =14.3δ, initially, the actual displacement is 0, and the error is 14.3δ after comparison; the digital output module outputs a digital control signal 14δ to the digital drive unit, enters the controller, and outputs a digital control signal 0111, which opens the switches of bit 2, bit 3, and bit 4 for binary coding step adjustment; if the output precision compensation signal is an analog voltage, the compensation unit 2 is controlled to output a displacement of 0.3δ, so that the total displacement reaches 14.3δ and reaches the specified position. When vibration occurs, the self-sensing unit senses that the actual displacement is 12δ and the error is 2.3δ. The digital output module outputs a digital control signal 2δ to the digital drive unit, and outputs a digital control signal 0100, which opens bit 2 for binary coding step adjustment; the compensation unit is controlled to output a displacement of 0.3δ and reaches the specified position again. Fault diagnosis and troubleshooting: The fault diagnosis module of the digital control unit is used to judge the working state of the stacked piezoelectric material in the digital drive unit in real time. If the stacked piezoelectric material fails, the compensation unit is switched to working mode 2, and the compensation unit replaces the faulty piezoelectric sheet to work.
