Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a displacement measurement device for a hemispherical resonant gyroscope, and particularly to a displacement measurement device for a hemispherical resonant gyroscope based on a piezoelectric cantilever probe. Background Art
[0002] The excellent performance of the hemispherical resonant gyroscope is limited by the defects of the quartz resonator in it, including mass, stiffness, and damping defects, mass and stiffness defects, which result in the mismatch of the natural frequencies of the two main vibration modes of the quartz resonator, abbreviated as the resonator, causing a significant decline in the performance of the spherical resonant gyroscope in terms of accuracy, reliability, and lifespan. Under the existing manufacturing capabilities, improving the leveling technology of the quartz resonator is the main means to solve the mass imbalance of the quartz resonator.
[0003] In terms of the identification method of the rigid axis position and unbalanced mass of the resonator, according to the leveling theory of unbalanced mass, the accurate identification of the rigid axis position and unbalanced mass of the resonator is the primary condition for achieving high-precision leveling. The frequency difference caused by the density inhomogeneity defect of the quartz resonator will cause the position of the four-wave belly vibration mode of the resonator to drift relative to the direction of the natural axis, resulting in frequency splitting and thus causing an error in the accuracy of the hemispherical resonant gyroscope. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the magnitude and direction of the density inhomogeneity parameter to provide a basis for compensating the first to third density inhomogeneous harmonics using the leveling technology in the follow-up, so as to prepare for improving the accuracy of the gyroscope. Due to the extremely high mass balance index for the hemispherical resonant gyroscope, it is usually required that the mass imbalance detection resolution of the hemispherical resonant gyroscope is better than 2 ppm, and the angle identification accuracy is better than 2°. Therefore, the amplitude detection accuracy in the vibration mode of the hemispherical resonant gyroscope reaches 2 pm. Currently, the detection of the mass imbalance of the hemispherical resonant gyroscope usually uses a laser Doppler instrument. This method has non-contact measurement, high precision, and simple measurement, but the disadvantage is that it is expensive, and carrying out mass production detection will incur huge costs.
[0004] In addition, the resonator is a precision component with high requirements for vibration characteristics, featuring light mass and small volume. When using a contact-type piezoelectric micro-sensor to test its vibration characteristics, factors such as its measurement range, measurement sensitivity, the performance interference of the prestress on the resonator, and the feasibility of sensor preparation need to be considered. At the same time, the accurate detection and extraction of weak piezoelectric signals are also the premise for achieving picometer-level displacement measurement. Summary of the Invention

[0028] As Figure 1An apparatus for measuring multi-degree-of-freedom micro-displacement of a hemispherical resonant gyro provided by an embodiment of the present application mainly consists of a piezoelectric cantilever beam probe 10, a multi-stage multi-degree-of-freedom displacement stage 20, a high-frequency acoustic wave excitation module 30, and a picometer-level displacement detection module 40. Among them, the piezoelectric cantilever beam probe 10 is used to detect picometer-level displacement signals generated by the resonator A of the hemispherical resonant gyro due to mass imbalance during vibration at the resonant frequency; the function of the multi-stage multi-degree-of-freedom displacement stage 20 is to accurately position the piezoelectric cantilever beam probe 10 to the measurement position of the resonator A and generate a small amount of interference contact with the resonator A, so that the piezoelectric cantilever beam probe 10 generates millivolt-level charges. The function of the high-frequency acoustic wave excitation module 30 is to generate an acoustic wave signal with the same resonant frequency as the resonator A, so as to provide an excitation signal for the resonator A.
[0029] As Figure 2 shown, the piezoelectric cantilever beam probe 10 is of a thin sheet type, which includes a composite layer structure composed of a base layer and a piezoelectric ceramic layer. A probe structure 11 in the shape of a cone is provided on the base layer; an electrode structure 12 is formed on the piezoelectric ceramic layer.
[0030] The piezoelectric cantilever beam probe can be designed by an optimization design scheme based on the dynamic simulation of the resonator A. The scheme can be: taking the maximum output of the instantaneous charge amount of the piezoelectric cantilever beam probe 10 as the target, and taking the strength of the piezoelectric cantilever beam probe 10 and the threshold of the change degree of the time history displacement response of the hemispherical resonant gyro as the constraint conditions; an optimization problem with the geometric dimensions of the piezoelectric cantilever beam probe 10, the thickness of the matrix layer of titanium alloy TC4 material, the size of the solder pad, the thickness of the piezoelectric layer (PZT), and the thickness of the upper electrode of titanium / copper metal material as variables, to obtain the structural form of the optimized piezoelectric cantilever beam probe 10.
[0031] In some embodiments, as Figure 3As shown, the fabrication of the designed piezoelectric cantilever probe 10 can be based on MEMS fabrication processes, which may include step S101 of welding the base layer formed by the base sheet and the piezoelectric ceramic layer formed by the piezoelectric ceramic in a vacuum environment using solder pads to form a composite piezoelectric cantilever structure; step S102 of then protecting the piezoelectric ceramic layer and performing precision machining on the base layer to turn out a conical probe structure; step S103 of sputtering titanium / copper metal on the surface of the piezoelectric ceramic layer using a magnetron sputtering platform to form an electrode layer; step S104 of spin-coating photoresist on the surface of the electrode layer using a spin coater and performing MEMS lithography processes such as pre-baking, exposure, development, and post-baking to pattern the photoresist electrode pattern; step S105 of then etching away the exposed part of the electrode layer using a copper / titanium electrode etching solution to form the electrodes on the patterned piezoelectric cantilever; step S106 of then applying a DC electric field to the piezoelectric ceramic layer for polarization to generate a piezoelectric effect; and step S107 of finally forming individual piezoelectric cantilever probes 10 by dicing with a high-power laser cutter.
[0032] As Figure 1 , Figure 4 shown, the multi-stage multi-degree-of-freedom displacement stage 20 includes a three-axis displacement control module 21, a vision contact feedback module 22, and a sensor clamping module 23. Among them, the three-axis displacement control module 21 includes a first displacement control part 211 for controlling the displacement of the first axis, a second displacement control part 212 for controlling the displacement of the second axis, and a third displacement control part 213 for controlling the displacement of the third axis. Each of the first displacement control part 211, the second displacement control part 212, and the third displacement control part 213 includes a first-stage displacement control unit for controlling a larger displacement range and a second-stage displacement control unit for controlling a smaller displacement range. For example, the first displacement control part 211 includes a first displacement control unit 2111 and a second displacement control unit 2112; the second displacement control part 212 includes a third displacement control unit 2121 and a fourth displacement control unit 2122; the third displacement control part 213 includes a fifth displacement control unit 2131 and a sixth displacement control unit 2132;
[0033] Specifically, taking the second displacement control part 212 as an example, the third displacement control unit 2121 it includes adopts a rack and pinion mechanism and uses a manual driving method to control a larger displacement range, with the displacement range between 0 and 10 mm and a resolution of up to 10 μm, roughly positioning the piezoelectric cantilever probe 10 near the center of the resonator A of the hemispherical resonator gyro; the fourth displacement control unit 2122 it includes can adopt a piezoelectric ceramic actuator with a resolution of up to 5 nm and a moving range of 0 to 40 μm, and the piezoelectric ceramic actuator is configured to make the piezoelectric cantilever probe 10 perform micro-stepping, that is, slowly stepping until it contacts the resonator A.
[0034] Similar to the second displacement control section 212, the first displacement control section 211 and the third displacement control section 213 can also respectively adopt a rack and pinion mechanism and a piezoelectric ceramic actuator as the first-stage displacement control unit and the second-stage displacement control unit.
[0035] As Figure 1 shown, the visual contact feedback module 22 uses a high-definition electron microscope 221, or a combined feedback mechanism composed of the high-definition electron microscope 221 and the voltage threshold of the piezoelectric ceramic actuator as the fourth displacement control unit 2122 to detect whether the piezoelectric cantilever probe 10 touches the resonator A. The high-definition electron microscope 221 can independently provide visual feedback for the three-axis displacement control module 21. Or form a combined feedback with the voltage signal feedback of the fourth displacement control unit 2122.
[0036] When the piezoelectric ceramic actuator makes the probe structure 1 of the piezoelectric cantilever probe 10 touch the resonator A of the hemispherical resonator gyro fixed on the fixture from above during the micro-stepping process, the piezoelectric cantilever probe 10 will generate an instantaneous voltage signal due to touching the resonator A. Therefore, the instantaneous voltage signal can be detected, and when it is determined that the detected instantaneous voltage signal exceeds the voltage threshold preset by the piezoelectric ceramic actuator control module, the piezoelectric ceramic actuator is immediately stopped. The setting of the voltage threshold is determined by the piezoelectric sensitivity coefficient of the piezoelectric cantilever probe 10.
[0037] In addition, a camera 223 can also be provided as a supplementary structure of the visual contact feedback module 22, and the contact situation between the piezoelectric cantilever probe 10 and the resonator A is observed through the camera.

[0039] The sensor clamping module 23 is used to firmly clamp the piezoelectric cantilever probe 10. The sensor clamping module 23 can adopt a lead screw slider mechanism 231 in cooperation with a clamping head 232. The clamping head can be driven by the lead screw slider to adjust the clamping force of the clamping head, realize clamping and loosening, and perform firm clamping during the measurement process. The adjustment can be manual. The clamping head can be made of frosted acrylic material.
[0040] As Figure 1 、 Figure 5As shown, the high-frequency acoustic wave excitation module 30 includes a piezoelectric ceramic block or a microphone device 31, a signal generator 32, and a power amplifier 33. The frequency of the signal generator 32 is set to the starting oscillation frequency of the resonator A, especially, for example, 8260 Hz. The voltage signal output by the signal generator 32 is output to the piezoelectric ceramic block or the microphone device 31 through the power amplifier 33, causing the piezoelectric ceramic block or the microphone device 31 to generate an acoustic wave signal.
[0041] As Figure 1 , Figure 5 shown, the picometer-level displacement detection module 40 includes a charge amplifier 41, a lock-in amplifier 42, and a displacement calculation module 43. The charge amplifier 41 collects and amplifies the charges generated by the piezoelectric cantilever probe 10. The lock-in amplifier 42 locks the frequency of the voltage signal output by the charge amplifier 41, extracts the nanovolt-level weak useful signal identical to the resonant frequency, and filters out the environmental noise signals. The lock-in amplifier 42 adopts the method of external input reference signal or internal input reference signal. If the method of external input reference signal is adopted, a path of the voltage signal output by the signal generator 32 can be branched to the external input terminal of the lock-in amplifier 42. If the method of internal input reference signal is adopted, the signal frequency set by the signal generator 32 can be manually input. The output of the lock-in amplifier 42 serves as the input of the displacement calculation module 43, and the picometer-level displacement is calculated by the displacement calculation module 43.
[0042] It should be understood that the implementation examples described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Some non-essential improvements and adjustments made by those skilled in the art based on the content of the present invention fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
