Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of ultrasonic machining, and in particular relates to a system and method for tracking the resonance frequency of an ultrasonic tool holder based on phase positioning. Background Art
[0002] Ultrasonic-assisted machining is gaining popularity in machining hard and brittle materials and thin-walled parts. For example, ultrasonic milling, in which ultrasonic vibrations are added, can reduce milling forces and improve the surface quality of the workpiece.
[0003] However, the ultrasonic toolholder can shift its resonant frequency under the influence of load, causing amplitude attenuation or even failure, which can negatively impact the machined surface. Therefore, tracking the resonant frequency is crucial for ultrasonic-assisted machining.
[0004] Traditional resonant frequency tracking methods include the phase method and the maximum current method. The phase method ensures the resonant state by locking the zero phase difference between voltage and current, while the maximum current method ensures the resonant state by searching for the maximum current of the transducer (i.e., the minimum impedance point).
[0005] However, for wirelessly powered ultrasonic toolholders, the applicability of the phase and maximum current methods is significantly reduced. Specifically, the resonant phase in the impedance characteristic of the phase method is not necessarily at zero phase and can vary with load changes during the auxiliary machining process. Frequency tracking using the maximum current method is difficult in determining the tracking direction, and additional calculations are required when the resonant frequency shifts. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the problems of the prior art, the present invention provides a phase-based ultrasonic scalpel resonant frequency tracking system and method. This system combines the advantages of the phase method's rapid search speed with the maximum current method's precise search accuracy. The system uses impedance and phase characteristics to divide the ultrasonic scalpel into five phase working zones. Rapid phase identification is performed through the monotonic characteristics of the phase curve. After locating the phase position, the direction of the maximum current is determined, avoiding multiple judgments of the maximum current direction during the search process and enabling rapid and accurate search for the frequency of the maximum current point. In terms of phase division and judgment, the present invention combines frequency sweep results for regional division, primarily utilizing differences in the monotonicity of the working zones for judgment, rather than specific values. Therefore, the system can be applied to phase characteristic curves of various phase ranges, greatly enhancing its applicability to different ultrasonic scalpels.

[0011] A method for tracking the resonance frequency of an ultrasonic tool handle based on phase positioning, which uses the aforementioned ultrasonic tool handle resonance frequency tracking system based on phase positioning, includes the following steps:
[0012] Step S1: Frequency sweep and impedance analysis
[0013] Perform a frequency scan on the currently working loosely coupled wireless powered ultrasonic scalpel handle, and analyze the impedance characteristics of the currently working loosely coupled wireless powered ultrasonic scalpel handle to obtain the resonant frequency and resonant phase of the currently working loosely coupled wireless powered ultrasonic scalpel handle;
[0014] Step S2: Workspace division
[0015] In the phase range near the resonant phase, the operating current is maintained near the maximum current point. According to the required resonant current operating range, the resonant frequency range is set, and five working areas A, B, C, D, and E are divided accordingly, providing a theoretical basis for the judgment in step S3;
[0016] Step S3: Working phase positioning
[0017] When the loosely coupled wireless powered ultrasonic tool handle is operating in a detuned state, the working area of the current frequency is judged according to the working areas divided in step S2, and the search direction of the maximum current is determined; wherein, area B is in the resonant working area and no search is performed; the frequency of area A is lower than the frequency of the maximum current point, and the search direction is set to increase the frequency; the frequency of areas C, D, and E is higher than the frequency of the maximum current point, and the search direction is set to decrease the frequency;
[0018] Step S4: Maximum current search
[0019] According to the search direction determined in step S3, the frequency is adjusted monotonically to quickly track the maximum current point, that is, the resonant frequency.
[0020] In step S2, the five working areas A, B, C, D, and E are specifically divided as follows: Area A is the entire area on the left side of the resonance interval of the loosely coupled wireless power ultrasonic scalpel handle, far away from the resonance point; Area B is the resonance interval range of the loosely coupled wireless power ultrasonic scalpel handle, which is determined by the phase interval corresponding to the allowable resonance current interval; Area C is the area between the resonance interval and the anti-resonance interval of the loosely coupled wireless power ultrasonic scalpel handle; Area D is the anti-resonance interval corresponding to the phase value of the resonance interval of the loosely coupled wireless power ultrasonic scalpel handle; Area E is the entire area on the right side of the anti-resonance interval of the loosely coupled wireless power ultrasonic scalpel handle, far away from the anti-resonance point.
[0021] In step S3, the specific steps for working phase positioning are:
[0022] Step S301: According to the five working areas A, B, C, D, and E set in step S2, the microprocessor performs phase capture and collects the current phase difference signal phase0;
[0023] Step S302: Distinguish between AE, BD, and C zones through a judgment statement; if the current phase difference is within the [phase1, phase2] resonance interval, it is in zone B or zone D, and execute step S306; otherwise, it is in zone A, zone C, or zone E, and execute step S303;
[0024] Step S303: Determine whether it is in zone C; if the current phase difference signal phase0 is greater than phase2, it is in zone C, and step S308 is executed; otherwise, it is in zone A or zone E, and step S304 is executed;
[0025] Step S304: distinguish between area A and area E; starting from the detuned frequency f0, the frequency search step step 3 is accumulated in a loop, the frequency is decreased to the left to f_left, and the frequency is increased to the right to f_right. When the phase difference between the two ends reaches the set threshold, the loop ends and step S305 is executed;
[0026] Step S305: Determine the phase difference between the left and right ends. If the left phase is smaller than the right phase, it indicates that the phase is increasing to the right and is in zone A. Execute step S309. Otherwise, it is in zone E. Execute step S310.
[0027] Step S306: Distinguish between zone B and zone D; use the monotonicity of the phases of the two intervals to make a judgment. The phase of zone B is monotonically increasing, while the phase of zone D is monotonically decreasing. After reducing the set step frequency, collect the phase difference phase3. If phase3>phase0, the phase increases, then it is zone D, and execute step S307; otherwise, it is zone B, and execute step S312;
[0028] Step S307: After determining that it is zone D, since the current monotonicity in zone D is not unique, to facilitate the maximum current search, the frequency is cyclically reduced until it is reduced to the working area where zone C is located, and then step S311 is executed;
[0029] Step S308: Determine that it is in zone C and set a frequency reduction flag;
[0030] Step S309: Determine that it is in zone A and set a frequency increase flag;
[0031] Step S310: Determine that it is in zone E, reduce the phase to the working area where zone C is located using step S307, and set the frequency increase flag;
[0032] Step S311: After the phase is reduced to the working area where zone C is located, a frequency increase flag is set;
[0033] Step S312: Determine that the area is in zone B and do not perform the maximum current search.
[0034] In step S4, the specific execution steps of the maximum current search are:
[0035] Step S401: Determine whether the frequency decreases; if the frequency decreases, execute step S402; otherwise, execute step S403;
[0036] Step S402: cyclically reducing the frequency until the maximum current value is found;
[0037] Step S403: Determine whether the frequency increases; if the frequency increases, execute step S404; otherwise, execute step S405;
[0038] Step S404: cyclically increase the frequency until the maximum current is found;
[0039] Step S405: Based on the search result, the current frequency is output as the resonant frequency.
[0040] Beneficial effects of the present invention:
[0041] The present invention's phase-positioning-based ultrasonic scalpel resonant frequency tracking system and method combines the advantages of the phase method's rapid search speed with the maximum current method's precise search accuracy. It uses impedance and phase characteristics to divide the ultrasonic scalpel into five phase operating zones. Rapid phase identification is performed through the monotonic characteristics of the phase curve. After locating the phase position, the direction of the maximum current is determined, avoiding multiple determinations of the maximum current direction during the search process and enabling rapid and accurate search for the frequency of the maximum current point. In phase division and determination, the present invention combines frequency sweep results for regional division, primarily utilizing differences in the monotonicity of the operating zones for determination, rather than specific values. Therefore, the system can be applied to phase characteristic curves in various phase ranges, significantly enhancing its applicability to different ultrasonic scalpels.

[0053] like Figure 2 As shown, a method for tracking the resonance frequency of an ultrasonic tool handle based on phase positioning adopts the aforementioned ultrasonic tool handle resonance frequency tracking system based on phase positioning, and includes the following steps:
[0054] Step S1: Frequency sweep and impedance analysis
[0055] The frequency of the currently working loosely coupled wireless powered ultrasonic scalpel handle 400 is scanned, and the impedance characteristics of the currently working loosely coupled wireless powered ultrasonic scalpel handle 400 are analyzed to obtain the resonant frequency and resonant phase of the currently working loosely coupled wireless powered ultrasonic scalpel handle 400.
[0056] Step S2: Workspace division
[0057] Within the phase range near the resonant phase, the operating current is maintained near the maximum current point. The resonant frequency range is set according to the required resonant current operating range, and five working areas A, B, C, D, and E are divided accordingly, providing a theoretical basis for the judgment of step S3.
[0058] like Figure 3 As shown, the five working areas A, B, C, D, and E are specifically divided as follows: Area A is the entire area on the left side of the resonance interval of the loosely coupled wireless power ultrasonic scalpel handle 400, far away from the resonance point; Area B is the resonance interval range of the loosely coupled wireless power ultrasonic scalpel handle 400, which is determined by the phase interval corresponding to the allowable resonance current interval; Area C is the area between the resonance interval and the anti-resonance interval of the loosely coupled wireless power ultrasonic scalpel handle 400; Area D is the anti-resonance interval corresponding to the phase value of the resonance interval of the loosely coupled wireless power ultrasonic scalpel handle 400; Area E is the entire area on the right side of the anti-resonance interval of the loosely coupled wireless power ultrasonic scalpel handle 400, far away from the anti-resonance point.
[0059] Specifically, the division of the five working areas A, B, C, D, and E is mainly based on the change law of current and impedance, and is mainly based on the phase interval value and the monotonicity of each area.
[0060] Step S3: Working phase positioning
[0061] When the loosely coupled wireless powered ultrasonic scalpel handle 400 is operating in a detuned state, the working area of the current frequency is judged according to the working areas divided in step S2, and the search direction of the maximum current is determined; among them, area B is in the resonant working area and no search is performed; the frequency of area A is lower than the frequency of the maximum current point, and the search direction is set to increase the frequency; the frequency of areas C, D, and E is higher than the frequency of the maximum current point, and the search direction is set to decrease the frequency.
[0062] like Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the specific steps for working phase positioning are:
[0063] Step S301: According to the five working areas A, B, C, D, and E set in step S2, the microprocessor 300 performs phase capture and collects the current phase difference signal phase0;
[0064] Step S302: Distinguish between AE, BD, and C zones through a judgment statement; if the current phase difference is within the [phase1, phase2] resonance interval, it is in zone B or zone D, and execute step S306; otherwise, it is in zone A, zone C, or zone E, and execute step S303;
[0065] Step S303: Determine whether it is in zone C; if the current phase difference signal phase0 is greater than phase2, it is in zone C, and step S308 is executed; otherwise, it is in zone A or zone E, and step S304 is executed;
[0066] Step S304: distinguish between area A and area E; starting from the detuned frequency f0, the frequency search step step 3 is accumulated in a loop, the frequency is decreased to the left to f_left, and the frequency is increased to the right to f_right. When the phase difference between the two ends reaches the set threshold, the loop ends and step S305 is executed;
[0067] Step S305: Determine the phase difference between the left and right ends. If the left phase is smaller than the right phase, it indicates that the phase is increasing to the right and is in zone A. Execute step S309. Otherwise, it is in zone E. Execute step S310.
[0068] Step S306: Distinguish between zone B and zone D; use the monotonicity of the phases of the two intervals to make a judgment. The phase of zone B is monotonically increasing, while the phase of zone D is monotonically decreasing. After reducing the set step frequency, collect the phase difference phase3. If phase3>phase0, the phase increases, then it is zone D, and execute step S307; otherwise, it is zone B, and execute step S312;
[0069] Step S307: After determining that it is zone D, since the current monotonicity in zone D is not unique, to facilitate the maximum current search, the frequency is cyclically reduced until it is reduced to the working area where zone C is located, and then step S311 is executed;
[0070] Step S308: Determine that it is in zone C and set a frequency reduction flag;
[0071] Step S309: Determine that it is in zone A and set a frequency increase flag;
[0072] Step S310: Determine that it is in zone E, reduce the phase to the working area where zone C is located using step S307, and set the frequency increase flag;
[0073] Step S311: After the phase is reduced to the working area where zone C is located, a frequency increase flag is set;
[0074] Step S312: Determine that the area is in zone B and do not perform the maximum current search.
[0075] Specifically, during the phase location procedure, zone C is the easiest to distinguish, enabling rapid and accurate positioning solely through phase values. Zones A and E exhibit the same phase, a wide range, a gradual phase difference, and an opposite relationship between current and phase, making identification more difficult and time-consuming. In step S304, the different monotonicity of zones A and E during the left and right search processes is utilized to determine the magnitude of the phase difference between the left and right ends, allowing for rapid differentiation between zones A and E. Zones B and D are relatively straightforward and can be identified using their different monotonicity.
[0076] Step S4: Maximum current search
[0077] According to the search direction determined in step S3, the frequency is adjusted monotonically to quickly track the maximum current point, that is, the resonant frequency.
[0078] like Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the specific execution steps of the maximum current search are:
[0079] Step S401: Determine whether the frequency decreases; if the frequency decreases, execute step S402; otherwise, execute step S403;
[0080] Step S402: cyclically reducing the frequency until the maximum current value is found;
[0081] Step S403: Determine whether the frequency increases; if the frequency increases, execute step S404; otherwise, execute step S405;
[0082] Step S404: cyclically increase the frequency until the maximum current is found;
[0083] Step S405: Based on the search result, the current frequency is output as the resonant frequency.
[0084] Specifically, after phase positioning, the direction of frequency increase or decrease is determined, and a cyclic search for the maximum current is performed. At the end of each cycle, the current is compared with the size of the previous cycle. When the cyclic current i1 is less than 1.05 times that of the previous cycle, the cycle is exited and the operation is performed at the previous cycle driving frequency. The 1.05 times parameter setting limits the range of the searched maximum current to more than 95% of the actual maximum current, which can ensure the stability of the searched maximum current and the accuracy of the results.

The method for tracking the resonance frequency of an ultrasonic tool handle based on phase positioning according to claim 1, characterized in that: In step S3, the specific steps for working phase positioning are: Step S301: According to the five working areas A, B, C, D, and E set in step S2, the microprocessor performs phase capture and collects the current phase difference signal phase0; Step S302: Distinguish between AE, BD, and C zones through a judgment statement; if the current phase difference is within the [phase1, phase2] resonance interval, it is in zone B or zone D, and execute step S306; otherwise, it is in zone A, zone C, or zone E, and execute step S303; Step S303: Determine whether it is in zone C; if the current phase difference signal phase0 is greater than phase2, it is in zone C, and step S308 is executed; otherwise, it is in zone A or zone E, and step S304 is executed; Step S304: distinguish between area A and area E; starting from the detuned frequency f0, the frequency search step step 3 is accumulated in a loop, the frequency is decreased to the left to f_left, and the frequency is increased to the right to f_right. When the phase difference between the two ends reaches the set threshold, the loop ends and step S305 is executed; Step S305: Determine the phase difference between the left and right ends. If the left phase is smaller than the right phase, it indicates that the phase is increasing to the right and is in zone A. Execute step S309. Otherwise, it is in zone E. Execute step S310. Step S306: Distinguish between zone B and zone D; use the monotonicity of the phases of the two intervals to make a judgment. The phase of zone B is monotonically increasing, while the phase of zone D is monotonically decreasing. After reducing the set step frequency, collect the phase difference phase3. If phase3>phase0, the phase increases, then it is zone D, and execute step S307; otherwise, it is zone B, and execute step S312; Step S307: After determining that it is zone D, since the current monotonicity in zone D is not unique, to facilitate the maximum current search, the frequency is cyclically reduced until it is reduced to the working area where zone C is located, and then step S311 is executed; Step S308: Determine that it is in zone C and set a frequency reduction flag; Step S309: Determine that it is in zone A and set a frequency increase flag; Step S310: Determine that it is in zone E, reduce the phase to the working area where zone C is located using step S307, and set the frequency increase flag; Step S311: After the phase is reduced to the working area where zone C is located, a frequency increase flag is set; Step S312: Determine that the area is in zone B and do not perform the maximum current search.
