[0060]

[0061] Table 2 Buffering results of two reinforced hexagonal lattice structures

[0062] The reinforced hexagonal lattice structure described in the application is designed to avoid structural interference, so the inner diagonal brace angle θ should be less than or equal to the inner diagonal brace angle γ, that is, θ≤γ. In order to clearly observe the changes of various crashworthiness indicators when the angle θ changes in a larger range, the angle γ between the outer diagonal edge and the bottom edge is 60°, and the angle θ between the inner diagonal edges is set to 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, 50° and 60°, and the simulation results are obtained by calculation. Figure 13 It can be seen that as the angle increases, the average buffering force of the buffering force curve increases slightly, the peak collision force decreases slightly, and the compression stroke decreases, and Figure 14 It can be seen that the overall trend of the mass specific energy absorption decreases as the angle increases, and the compression stroke in the compression process becomes the main reason for the decrease of the total energy absorption. For the peak collision stress and the average collision stress, the peak collision stress reaches the minimum value when the angle is 30°, and the average collision stress reaches the minimum value when the angle is 20°;

[0063] In order to intuitively study the influence of the outer diagonal edge angle γ of the unit cell on the impact resistance of the structure, the outer diagonal edge angle γ is set to 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, 50°, 60°, 70° and 80° respectively. By Figure 16 It can be seen that the buffering force curves corresponding to different angles γ differ greatly, mainly in terms of compression stroke, buffering force and fluctuation degree. It is obvious that the smaller the angle, the shorter the corresponding buffering force curve, the higher the buffering force and the more obvious the fluctuation degree. By Figure 17It can be seen that the mass specific energy absorption continuously increases when the cell angle γ increases from 10° to 30°, slightly decreases when the cell angle γ increases from 30° to 40°, and continuously increases when the cell angle γ increases from 40° to 80°. The peak impact force slightly decreases when the cell angle γ increases from 10° to 20°, and sharply increases when the cell angle γ increases from 20° to 80°. The average impact force always increases when the cell angle γ increases from 10° to 80°. The angle γ affects other dimensions, and in order to ensure the rationality of the structure, the length L1 is kept unchanged and the length L2 is reduced when the angle γ increases. The greater the angle γ, the smaller the length L2. The phenomenon that the greater the angle γ, the greater the specific energy absorption is actually because the length L2 has a greater impact on the specific energy absorption than the angle γ, and the reduction of the length L2 causes the increase of the specific energy absorption.

[0064] The present application has been disclosed as above with preferred embodiments, however, not for limiting the present application, any person skilled in the art can make some changes or modifications to the above disclosed structure and technical content without departing from the scope of the present application, and the equivalent embodiments with equivalent changes are obtained, but any simple modification, equivalent change and modification of the above embodiments according to the technical essence of the present application are still within the scope of the present application.

[0065] Working principle

[0066] In use, the size and positional relationship of each component are determined according to the working condition and the pre-designed result, and each component is assembled according to the connection described in the specific embodiment, and finally the assembled reinforced hexagonal lattice structure is arranged between the upper impact plate and the lower support plate, as shown in Figure 9 It is worth noting that the upper impact plate is kept a certain distance from the upper end surface of the reinforced hexagonal lattice structure, and the lower support plate is in close contact with the lower end surface of the lattice in the arrangement. In actual application, the upper impact plate will collide with the upper end surface of the lattice at a certain initial speed, and the impact will be transmitted to the lattice structure. The lattice absorbs the impact energy by plastic deformation, thereby achieving the purpose of anti-collision and buffering.
