Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of precision transmission and precision positioning, and in particular to a self-assembly compliant rotary hinge based on a corrugated sheet, a forming method and a platform. Background Art

[0002] Existing technologies, such as patent CN 104332183 A, disclose a novel, high-precision, long-travel positioning platform. Measuring less than 60 mm by 60 mm, the platform utilizes a corrugated sheet as a flexible element, enabling a two-dimensional translational output of several millimeters and a one-dimensional rotational output. The corrugated sheet's structural dimensions can be adjusted to suit the specific operating environment to achieve an appropriate maximum travel. The flexible body's regular triangular distribution improves output stability, reducing axis drift during movement. The flexible body is integrally machined using a wire-cutting machine, avoiding errors introduced by assembly.

[0003] However, although the above-mentioned high-precision positioning platform in the prior art adopts an equilateral triangle arrangement to reduce axis drift, there are still large errors in motion control. In addition, the rotational motion of the above-mentioned high-precision positioning platform is controlled and output through translational coupling motion, and there is a relatively complex relationship between both positioning control and error compensation.

While these can achieve submicron or even nanometer positioning accuracy when coupled with high-performance actuators and sophisticated drive methods, their operating range is limited to tens of microns. A few commercial precision positioning platforms driven by micromotors, while capable of millimeter-level motion, lack high accuracy and suffer from the inherent shortcomings of traditional machinery.

[0056] Based on the same inventive concept, the embodiment of the present application also provides a precision positioning platform, which comprises a transmission component loaded with the self-assembled large-stroke compliant rotary hinge based on the corrugated sheet according to the above embodiment.

[0057] The embodiment of the present application discloses a self-assembled large-stroke compliant rotary hinge based on a corrugated sheet, a forming method and a platform, and the whole hinge is integrally processed by wire cutting. In use, the normal work of the compliant rotary hinge can be realized by completing the self-assembly operation, performing the horizontal displacement of the male rotary joint and inserting the male rotary joint into the cavity of the female rotary joint. The present application can obtain a large-amplitude high-precision rotary output under the condition that the overall size of the positioning platform is very small. The motion of the platform is generated by the tensile and compressive deformation of the periodic corrugated spring sheet. The use of the corrugated spring sheet greatly improves the flexibility of the whole device and can obtain a larger rotary output. The male rotary joint and the female rotary joint can obtain high-precision rotary positioning accuracy through the center positioning in work, and the shaft drift of the transmission rod during rotation is reduced. The structure is simple, applied to integrated processing and high-precision positioning occasions. The present application well balances the large-stroke and high-precision motion and positioning performance.

[0058] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application:

[0059] As Figure 1As shown, a self-assembled large-stroke compliant rotational hinge based on corrugated sheet, including first half-moon period corrugated flexible body 1 and second half-moon period corrugated flexible body 3 arranged symmetrically, male rotational joint 2 and female rotational joint 4 are in the same straight line and coincide with the axis of the two flexible bodies. In order to reduce stress concentration, the period corrugated flexible body adopts round corner transition at the connection with the rotational joint. There is a 0.3mm wire cutting gap between the male rotational joint 2 and the female rotational joint 4 to control the machining error. In addition, the maximum circumference that can be accommodated in the cavity at the right end of the female rotational joint 4 is slightly smaller than the circumference size of the left end of the male rotational joint 2, and the two are in interference fit, which is used to increase the pre-tightening force and improve the positioning accuracy. Further, the first half-moon period corrugated flexible body 1, the male rotational joint 2, the second half-moon period corrugated flexible body 3 and the female rotational joint 4 are in the same plane, and are processed by wire cutting integrated processing during processing. Further, the male rotational joint 2 and the female rotational joint 4 are in a separated state after processing, and during work, the male rotational joint 2 needs to be pushed horizontally to make it fit into the cavity of the female rotational joint 4, and realize three-line positioning, pre-tightening and precise rotation work. Exemplarily, the overall size of the self-assembled large-stroke compliant rotational hinge based on corrugated sheet is within 100mmx80mm, which uses periodically distributed corrugated sheet as flexible element, can obtain ±40 degree plane rotation output, and can change the structure size and arrangement period of the corrugated sheet according to the specific working environment to obtain appropriate output stroke.

[0060] As Figure 2As shown, the first half-moon period corrugated flexible body 1 and the second half-moon period corrugated flexible body 3 are exactly the same, both of which are expanded by tangential contact of periodic circular arc segments, each period includes three segments, which are the corrugated period starting segment 11, the corrugated period middle segment 12 and the corrugated period ending segment 13, the arc radius of each segment is the same, and the contact points are tangential, wherein the central angles of the corrugated period starting segment 11 and the corrugated period ending segment 13 are the same. The corrugated segment of the next period is obtained by rotating the corrugated segment of the previous period around the center of the overall span of the corrugated body by a period angle, and the period angle is determined by equally dividing the central angle of the semicircle by the number of periods. In the final corrugated shape, the centers of all small circular arcs are on the same circle, and the outermost points of all circular arcs are on the same circle, and the radii of the two circles are related to the period angle. When calculating the compliance, the compliance matrix of each segment, i.e. the corrugated period starting segment 11, the corrugated period middle segment 12 and the corrugated period ending segment 13, can be calculated separately, and then the compliance matrix of one period can be obtained through matrix transformation and adjoint transformation. Finally, the compliance matrix of the first half-moon period corrugated flexible body 1 can be obtained by expansion, and the compliance matrix of the overall rotary joint can be obtained since the first half-moon period corrugated flexible body 1 and the second half-moon period corrugated flexible body 3 are connected in parallel. Finally, the working range of the self-assembled large-stroke compliant rotary hinge based on corrugated sheets can be calculated. In this way, the symmetrical distribution structure of the corrugated sheet improves the stability of the output, i.e. reduces the drift of the axis during movement. The symmetrical structure is beneficial to the automatic reset of the rotary joint and improves the zero-return property. In addition, the deformed and stressed parts adopt periodic corrugated flexible elements, and the movement process has continuity, high positioning accuracy, and periodic corrugated distribution of the half-moon period corrugated flexible bodies on the upper and lower sides, which is convenient for programmatic design and precise motion control.

[0061] As shown in Figure 2 , the first half-moon period corrugated flexible body 1 and the second half-moon period corrugated flexible body 3 are the key parts of the application, which are the main deformed and stressed elements and determine the working range of the entire platform. By changing the horizontal span, width, thickness, number of corrugated periods and material of the corrugated segments, different stiffness values can be obtained, thereby the maximum stroke of the entire platform can be designed.

[0062] As shown in Figure 3 , the left end of the male rotary joint 2 is machined with a male external tangent positioning end 21, which is designed as a cylinder. In order to realize the tangent positioning of the circle, the right end is a male transmission rod 22 which can be used as the input or output end of movement and torque.

[0063] As shown in Figure 4As shown, the right end of the female head rotary joint 4 is designed with a first flexible blocking positioning body 41 and a second flexible blocking positioning body 43 on the upper and lower sides, respectively, which are the key parts of self-assembly, used to be tangent to the male head outer tangent positioning end 21, prevent the horizontal reset of the male head rotary joint 2 after assembly, and achieve accurate positioning of the rotation center of the male head rotary joint 2, and inhibit the shaft drift. The female head inner tangent positioning end 42 is located in the cavity at the right end of the female head rotary joint 4, and is also tangent to the male head outer tangent positioning end 21 after self-assembly, which can provide a pre-tightening force after assembly, and together with the first flexible blocking positioning body 41 and the second flexible blocking positioning body 43, realize the three-circle tangent center positioning of the shaft center, and the thickness size of the female head inner tangent positioning end 42 is related to the pre-tightening force and the assembly force, which can be designed as needed. In this way, the male head rotary joint and the female head rotary joint adopt a self-assembly double-stable design, which can provide rotational constraints, and according to the tangent of the circular arc and the three-point positioning, the shaft center of the rotary joint can be accurately determined, which is suitable for precise machining conditions.

[0064] As shown in Figure 4 The female head transition rod section 44 is located between the female head inner tangent positioning end 42 and the female head transmission rod 45, and the size of this part can control the size of the installation force of self-assembly, and the female head transmission rod 45 can be used as the input or output end of motion and torque.

[0065] The rotary joint of the present application is integrally processed by a precision wire cutting machine tool, and the configuration after processing is as shown in Figure 1 As shown, the male head rotary joint 2 and the female head rotary joint 4 are required to have a wire cutting gap of 0.3mm. In use, first self-assembly is performed, the male head rotary joint 2 is pushed horizontally into the cavity of the female head rotary joint 4, after assembly, the first flexible blocking positioning body 41, the second flexible blocking positioning body 43 and the female head inner tangent positioning end 42 will generate a pre-tightening force on the male head outer tangent positioning end 21, and the three are in tangent contact, which can achieve precise positioning of the rotation center. In work, the intermediate male head rotary joint 2 and the female head rotary joint 4 only provide positioning of the rotation center position, and the first half-month periodic corrugated flexible body 1 and the second half-month periodic corrugated flexible body 3 provide overall motion and force constraint. The rotary joint as a whole can be integrally processed by a wire cutting machine tool, thereby avoiding errors introduced by external assembly, and has high flexibility and large motion range.
