Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of constant force mechanism technology, and in particular to a parameter optimization method and system for a constant force mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] In recent decades, precision manipulation has rapidly developed in various new applications, including micromanipulation, biomedical research, precision optics, and precision assembly. Besides ensuring precise positional control in micro- and nano-scale manipulations, the irregular shapes and fragility of microscale objects necessitate strict adjustment of the manipulating force within appropriate ranges. Currently, there are two main methods for achieving manipulating precision: force feedback control and mechanism design. Force feedback control precisely adjusts the feedback force through a controller, while mechanism design adjusts the output force by modifying structural characteristics. Compared to the complexity and high cost of force feedback control systems, mechanism design methods are more economical and simpler, making them popular among researchers. Unlike traditional elastic structures, constant force mechanisms do not obey Hooke's law; their stiffness is quasi-zero during coupled buckling deformation. This allows flexible constant force mechanisms to provide a nearly constant force output without feedback within a specific displacement range. Because flexible constant force mechanisms replace complex control systems with their mechanical properties, they have gained significant attention due to their substantial reduction in the difficulty and complexity of traditional force feedback control systems.
[0003] In numerous design and research experiments on flexible constant force mechanisms, problems such as insufficient constant force stroke and inconsistencies between experiments and theories often arise because the mechanism design is based on mechanical theory. Therefore, constant force mechanisms need to be optimized. Although researchers can manually adjust the structural parameters based on the parameter sensitivity results in optimization studies, the selected objective function is too singular, the optimization objective is vague, and there is only one conceptual optimization objective, resulting in low optimization efficiency. Furthermore, it is impossible to optimize based on specific target values, making it difficult to automatically design structural parameters based on the target constant force value.
[0004] Therefore, the lack of existing technologies for automatically optimizing the design parameters of constant force mechanisms leads to the technical problem of complex and inefficient optimization methods for constant force mechanism parameters. Summary of the Invention

[0029] like Figure 3 As shown in the embodiment of this application, a parameter optimization method for a constant force mechanism is provided, the method comprising:
[0030] Step S10: Construct a feasible initial flexible constant force mechanism and obtain multiple initial structural parameters of the initial flexible constant force structure;
[0031] Step S20: Analyze and obtain the force-displacement characteristic curve of the initial flexible constant force mechanism;
[0032] Step S30: Perform parametric analysis on the multiple initial structural parameters to obtain several sensitive initial structural parameters that have the greatest impact on the constant force characteristics of the initial flexible constant force structure;
[0033] Step S40: Based on the aforementioned sensitive initial structural parameters, construct the constraints and optimize the objective function;
[0034] Step S50: Construct a cost function that describes the optimization objective function;
[0035] Step S60: Based on the constraints, the objective function and the cost function, a multi-objective genetic algorithm is used in ANSYS Workbench to optimize the several sensitive initial structural parameters and obtain several optimized structural parameters.
[0036] Step S70: Using the aforementioned optimized structural parameters, adjust the initial flexible constant force mechanism to obtain an optimized flexible constant force mechanism, and verify the optimized flexible constant force mechanism.
[0037] Specifically, a feasible initial flexible constant force mechanism is constructed, wherein the initial flexible constant force mechanism is a constant force mechanism that requires parameter optimization. In the embodiments of this application, the optimized constant force mechanism is as follows: Figure 6As shown, multiple initial structural parameters of the initial flexible constant force structure are obtained. The mechanism is composed of a combination of positive stiffness and negative stiffness mechanisms. The force-displacement characteristic curve of the initial flexible constant force mechanism is obtained through analysis. Subsequently, parametric analysis is performed on multiple initial structural parameters to obtain several sensitive initial structural parameters that have the greatest impact on the constant force characteristics of the initial flexible constant force structure. Further, based on several sensitive initial structural parameters, constraint conditions and optimization objective functions are constructed. The cost function of the optimization objective function is further constructed. Then, based on the constraint conditions, optimization objective function, and cost function, a multi-objective genetic algorithm is used in ANSYS Workbench to optimize the several sensitive initial structural parameters to obtain several optimized structural parameters. Using the several optimized structural parameters, the initial flexible constant force mechanism is adjusted to obtain an optimized flexible constant force mechanism. Finally, the optimized flexible constant force mechanism is verified.
[0038] The method S10 provided in this application embodiment further includes:
[0039] Step S11: Using the stiffness combination mechanism design method, design and construct an initial negative stiffness mechanism and an initial positive stiffness mechanism;
[0040] Step S12: Combine the initial negative stiffness mechanism and the initial positive stiffness mechanism to obtain the initial flexible constant force mechanism;
[0041] Step S13: Construct the initial theoretical data model of the initial flexible constant force mechanism;
[0042] Step S14: Import the initial theoretical data model into Matlab for theoretical model verification to determine whether the initial flexible constant force mechanism is feasible;
[0043] Step S15: When the initial flexible constant force mechanism is feasible, a manual trial-and-error method is used to adjust the parameters of multiple design structural parameters of the initial flexible constant force structure until the preset conditions are met, thereby obtaining the initial flexible constant force structure and the multiple initial structural parameters.
[0044] Specifically, using the stiffness combination mechanism design method, two sets of traditional bistable beams were designed as negative stiffness beams (i.e., negative stiffness mechanisms), and a U-shaped beam was designed as a positive stiffness beam (i.e., positive stiffness mechanism). The negative and positive stiffness mechanisms were combined to form a flexible constant force mechanism, and an initial theoretical data model of the initial flexible constant force mechanism was constructed. Furthermore, the initial theoretical data model was imported into Matlab for theoretical model verification to determine the feasibility of the initial flexible constant force mechanism. Figure 1 and Figure 2These represent theoretical stiffness analysis models for beams with negative stiffness and beams with positive stiffness, respectively. When the initial flexible constant force mechanism is feasible, a manual trial-and-error method is used to adjust multiple design structural parameters of the initial flexible constant force structure until preset conditions are met, thereby obtaining the initial flexible constant force structure and the multiple initial structural parameters.
[0045] The method S20 provided in this application embodiment further includes:
[0046] Step S21: Based on the multiple initial structural parameters, construct an initial solid model using Solidworks;
[0047] Step S22: Use static analysis to obtain the force-displacement characteristic curve of the initial flexible constant force mechanism.
[0048] Specifically, an initial solid model was constructed using Solidworks based on multiple initial structural parameters. Subsequently, static analysis was employed to obtain the force-displacement characteristic curves of the initial flexible constant-force mechanism.
[0049] In the method S40 provided in this application embodiment, the plurality of sensitive initial structural parameters are the out-of-plane thickness of the beam, the in-plane width of the beam, the inclination angle of the beam, and the length of the beam, and the optimization objective function is as follows:
[0050]
[0051] Among them, F output To output the target constant force value, D output To output the constant force stroke, t represents the out-of-plane thickness of the beam, w represents the in-plane width of the beam, θ represents the inclination angle of the beam, specifically the inclination angle of the beam within the initial negative stiffness structure, and l represents the length of the beam. The structural parameters of the initial negative stiffness mechanism and the initial positive stiffness mechanism are represented using different subscripts. For example, l... f This represents the length of the beam within the structure with initial positive stiffness.
[0052] The constraint condition is as follows:
[0053]
[0054] Where a, c, and b are the upper limit, lower limit, and interval of the plurality of sensitive initial mechanism parameters, respectively.
[0055] Specifically, the several sensitive initial structural parameters are the beam's out-of-plane thickness, in-plane width, tilt angle, and length, and the specific optimization objective function is:
[0056]
[0057] Among them, Foutput To output the target constant force value, D output To output the constant force stroke, t represents the out-of-plane thickness of the beam, w represents the in-plane width of the beam, θ represents the inclination angle of the beam, and l represents the length of the beam. The specific constraints are as follows:
[0058]
[0059] Where a, c, and b are the upper limit, lower limit, and interval of the plurality of sensitive initial mechanism parameters, respectively.
[0060] To further describe the optimization objective function, a cost function is constructed for description. Specifically, the cost function is as follows:
[0061]
[0062] Where λ is the cost function, α, β, ω, γ and σ are weighting coefficients, and the sum of the weighting coefficients is 1, x is the target constant force value, (F n P n ) represents the selected sample points, F n For force, P n For displacement, k n Let λ be the slope, TDA be the total average deformation, and ESM be the maximum equivalent stress. The weights of α, β, ω, γ, and σ are represented as importance in ANSYS Workbench, including Default, Lower, or Higher. Preferably, α, β, and ω are set to Higher, and the rest to Default. The optimization objective based on the multi-objective genetic algorithm described above is to find the minimum value of λ.
[0063] To further understand the cost function, the polynomial on the right-hand side can also be expanded as follows:
[0064]
[0065] To achieve constant force characteristics, multiple points can be selected as parameters for the objective function during simulation. These points can be represented as (P... n ,F n ), x is the target constant force value, (F n P n ) represents the selected sample points, F n Representative force, P n Represents displacement, therefore (P) max—P1) represents the constant force stroke, requiring all selected target points to be within the error range of the target constant force value. k represents the slope between many points, and the slope between many selected points needs to be 0 to ensure the generation of a constant force interval. TDA represents the overall deformation average, and ESM represents the maximum equivalent stress. In practical work, it is necessary to ensure that TDA is maximized and ESM is minimized to make the optimization more realistic. Therefore, by performing multi-objective genetic algorithm optimization, several final optimized structural parameters can be obtained.
[0066] In this embodiment, optimization is performed based on a multi-objective genetic algorithm, according to the aforementioned preset conditions, optimization objective function, and cost function. Specifically, this includes designing the original model, selecting mechanism parameters, performing multi-objective genetic algorithm optimization, optimizing the mechanism parameters and model, and model comparison and verification steps. The multi-objective genetic algorithm optimization includes steps such as model parameterization, parameter set design, and finite element analysis, which will not be elaborated further here. Thus, several optimized structural parameters are obtained through optimization.
[0067] The method S70 provided in this application embodiment further includes:
[0068] Step S71: Based on the aforementioned optimized structural parameters, establish an optimized solid model in Solidworks;
[0069] Step S72: Use static analysis to obtain the force-displacement characteristic curve of the optimized flexible constant force mechanism;
[0070] Step S73: Compare the force-displacement characteristic curve of the initial flexible constant force mechanism and the force-displacement characteristic curve of the optimized flexible constant force mechanism to determine whether the force-displacement characteristic curve of the optimized flexible constant force mechanism is within the error range of the preset target constant force value, and whether the constant force stroke has increased.
[0071] Step S74: Conduct experiments based on the initial flexible constant force mechanism and the printed entity of the flexible constant force mechanism to verify whether the optimized flexible constant force mechanism is feasible.
[0072] Specifically, based on several optimized structural parameters, an optimized solid model is established in Solidworks software. Then, static analysis is used to obtain the force-displacement characteristic curve of the optimized flexible constant force mechanism. The force-displacement characteristic curves of the initial flexible constant force mechanism and the optimized flexible constant force mechanism are compared to determine whether the optimized flexible constant force mechanism's force-displacement characteristic curve falls within the error range of the preset target constant force value, and whether the constant force stroke has increased. Experiments are conducted using printed entities of the initial and optimized flexible constant force mechanisms to verify the feasibility of the optimized flexible constant force mechanism.
[0073] In one possible embodiment of this application, among several sensitive initial structural parameters, w = 1.1 mm, t = 3 mm, θ = 5 deg ree and l f =20mm. Where w and t represent the positive and negative stiffness beams, i.e., the width and thickness of the initial positive stiffness mechanism and the initial negative stiffness structure, θ represents the inclination angle of the negative stiffness beam, and l f The length of the beam representing positive stiffness is given by several optimized structural parameters: w = 1.0 mm, t = 1.8 mm, θ = 5.1 deg, ree, and l. f =16.9mm. The simulation and experimental results of the optimized flexible constant force mechanism are both within the error range of the target constant force value, and the optimized constant force stroke is significantly larger, making it suitable for the universal optimization of flexible constant force structures.
[0074] The technical solution provided by this invention constructs a feasible initial flexible constant force mechanism and obtains multiple initial structural parameters of the initial flexible constant force structure. The force-displacement characteristic curve of the initial flexible constant force mechanism is analyzed and obtained. Parametric analysis is performed on the multiple initial structural parameters to obtain several sensitive initial structural parameters that have the greatest impact on the constant force characteristics of the initial flexible constant force structure. Based on the several sensitive initial structural parameters, constraints and an optimization objective function are constructed, and a cost function describing the optimization objective function is constructed. Based on the constraints, the optimization objective function, and the cost function, a multi-objective genetic algorithm is used in ANSYS Workbench to optimize the several sensitive initial structural parameters, obtaining several optimized structural parameters. Using the several optimized structural parameters, the initial flexible constant force mechanism is adjusted to obtain an optimized flexible constant force mechanism, which is then verified. This achieves automatic optimization of multiple parameters of the constant force mechanism, improving the parameter optimization efficiency of the constant force mechanism. It solves the technical problem in the prior art of lacking a method for automatically designing and optimizing parameters based on the constant force mechanism, leading to complex and inefficient parameter optimization methods for constant force mechanisms.
