Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of multi-degree-of-freedom piezoelectric wafer driver, in particular to a piezoelectric driving amphibious device based on variable frequency and variable modal adjustment. BACKGROUND

[0002] A piezoelectric driver is a device that generates driving force using the piezoelectric effect. When an electric field is applied to a piezoelectric wafer, some crystals will deform and generate mechanical displacement or mechanical pressure. Therefore, by controlling the electric field applied to the piezoelectric crystal, the control of the driver can be achieved. Piezoelectric drivers have the advantages of simple structure, fast response speed, high precision, and high energy conversion efficiency, and have been widely used in precision positioning, control and sensing fields. At present, piezoelectric drivers have been applied in many fields. With the continuous progress and innovation of science and technology, the application field of piezoelectric drivers will be further expanded. Benefiting from the characteristics of high energy conversion rate and precision of piezoelectric drivers, it has high application prospect in the field of mechanical transmission.

[0003] In addition, piezoelectric drivers will form inherent resonance frequency in the process of inverse piezoelectric effect. When the external driving frequency is close to or equal to the resonance frequency of the piezoelectric element, resonance phenomenon will occur, which is due to the interaction between mechanical vibration and electrical signal caused by piezoelectric characteristics. At the same time, the excitation of external environment to piezoelectric driver may also cause resonance phenomenon, for example, when the external mechanical vibration frequency is close to the resonance frequency of piezoelectric driver, the resonance vibration of piezoelectric element will be caused. The above resonance phenomenon forms a certain obstacle to the research and development of existing piezoelectric drivers.

[0005] Among them, flapping wing aircraft has unmatched maneuvering and aerodynamic performance with general aircraft. It has small size, light weight, and is more advantageous in small space. The small size also provides good concealment for itself, and has very broad application prospects in military and civilian aspects, and is favored by famous universities and research institutions at home and abroad.

[0006] But the current ornithopter mainly adopts the traditional mechanical transmission mechanism, the reciprocating flapping motion of the wings of the aircraft is converted through the rotating motion of the motor, this kind of flapping way needs to convert chemical energy into mechanical energy of the motor, and then the motor converts the rotating kinetic energy into the kinetic energy of the flapping, due to the friction and energy loss of the motor itself and the connected transmission mechanism, and then affects the energy conversion efficiency of the device, although there are driving modes of using electromagnetic or piezoelectric chip in the prior art, but the existing device using piezoelectric driver as mechanical transmission mode is usually single in motion mode, with the field involved in scientific research and exploration becoming more and more broad, the demand of various complex tasks of robot motion is also expanding, the requirements of miniaturization, integration, light weight, high endurance and so on are constantly improved, the single function of traditional bionic robot gradually cannot meet the needs, therefore, how to expand the motion range of the existing robot, replace human to reach the area that is difficult to reach and complete the task of scientific research and exploration independently or semi-independently is the breakthrough point of the current robot research field, therefore, it is of great significance to change the single motion mode of the existing piezoelectric driven robot and research the multi-habitat bionic robot using piezoelectric driver as mechanical transmission mode to enhance its environmental adaptability.

[0007] In order to realize that the bionic robot can perform comprehensive tasks such as crawling and flying in complex environmental conditions, and use piezoelectric driver as mechanical transmission component during crawling and flying, and use variable frequency variable modal adjustment mechanism to make the driver dynamically adjust its natural frequency, so that it works in the quasi-resonance interval under the condition that the external excitation frequency changes, thereby maintaining a larger inertial force, thereby changing the flight speed of the aircraft, to meet the needs of high precision and light weight of the device, it is urgent to design a piezoelectric driving type land-air amphibian based on variable frequency variable modal adjustment to fill the gap in this field.
