[0033] Implementation method 1, see Figure 1 The present embodiment is described as a bipedal collaborative stepping two-degree-of-freedom cross-scale piezoelectric puncture device, the piezoelectric puncture device comprising:

[0034] Curved needle 1, piezoelectric driver 2, locking device 3, flow block 4, optical axis 5, limit stopper 11, rear housing 12, inner end cover 14 and outer end cover 15;

[0035] The curved needle 1 is connected to the front end of the optical axis 5 through the flow block 4, and a limit stopper 11 is provided at the rear end of the optical axis 5, and the limit stopper 11 is arranged inside the rear shell 12; a piezoelectric driver 2 is provided below the optical axis 5, and the piezoelectric driver 2 is fixedly connected to the locking device 3, and one side of the locking device 3 is fixedly mounted on the inner end cover 14, and the inner end cover 14 is provided with an outer end cover 15.

[0036] The use of a piezoelectric driver in this embodiment can achieve rapid response and high-precision displacement control, so that the puncture device can accurately locate and puncture microscopic biological tissues, meeting the needs of medical and biological science fields for fine operations.

[0037] This embodiment is based on the design of bipedal coordinated stepping, which effectively realizes two-degree-of-freedom motion control. This design allows the puncture device to move precisely in multiple directions, adapt to the puncture requirements of different angles and positions, and improve the flexibility and coverage of the operation. Compared with the traditional electromagnetic drive device, the piezoelectric drive structure is simpler and does not require a complex transmission mechanism and a large number of electromagnetic components. This not only reduces the size and weight of the overall device, but also reduces the manufacturing cost and maintenance difficulty. Since the piezoelectric drive does not require a large number of electromagnetic components, the puncture device reduces the possibility of electromagnetic interference during operation, avoids interference with the surrounding environment and other equipment, and improves the stability and reliability of the device.

[0038] The piezoelectric puncture device designed in this embodiment takes into account the needs of cross-scale applications. It can play a role in the delicate puncture tasks of tiny organisms, and it can also adapt to scale changes within a certain range, which makes the puncture device have efficient application potential in different application scenarios. The piezoelectric driver can achieve real-time monitoring and adjustment of the puncture device through a precise control system to ensure safety and stability during operation. This is particularly important in the medical field.

[0039] Embodiment 2. This embodiment is a further limitation of the bipedal collaborative stepping two-degree-of-freedom cross-scale piezoelectric puncture device described in embodiment 1. The piezoelectric puncture device also includes: a front linear bearing 7, a rear linear bearing 10 and a shaft cylinder 9; the shaft cylinder 9 is arranged outside the inner end cover 14, and the front linear bearing 7 and the rear linear bearing 10 are installed at the front and rear ends of the shaft cylinder 9.

[0040] The addition of front and rear linear bearings in this embodiment can effectively support the movement of the optical axis in the shaft barrel 9, reducing friction and vibration during movement. This design can significantly improve the stability of the puncture device and ensure that the movement trajectory during the puncture process is more accurate, thereby further improving the accuracy and controllability of the operation. The shaft barrel 9 is arranged outside the inner end cover 14, which effectively separates the internal electronic and mechanical components from the external environment, and improves the durability and reliability of the equipment. The reasonable installation of the front and rear linear bearings at both ends of the shaft barrel not only enhances the stability of the optical axis, but also simplifies the assembly process, making the overall structural layout more compact and controllable. The linear bearing can effectively reduce the friction resistance of the optical axis in the shaft barrel, so that the piezoelectric driver can control the movement of the optical axis more smoothly. This not only improves the sensitivity of the operation, but also extends the service life of the equipment and reduces the wear caused by friction.

[0041] Combined with the aforementioned advantages, the overall working stability of the device has been significantly enhanced. The stable motion trajectory and precise control capabilities enable the trocar to perform well in a variety of complex and delicate operating scenarios, especially in medical and bioscience applications that require high precision and long-term operation.

[0042] Embodiment 3. This embodiment is a further limitation of the bipedal collaborative stepping two-degree-of-freedom cross-scale piezoelectric puncture device described in Embodiment 2. The front linear bearing 7 is fixed to the shaft cylinder 9 through the front flange 6, and the rear linear bearing 10 is fixed to the shaft cylinder 9 through the rear flange 13.

[0043] In this embodiment, the front and rear linear bearings are firmly fixed to the shaft cylinder 9 through the front and rear flanges to form a stable support structure. This design can not only effectively reduce the mechanical vibration and instability caused by loose or displaced bearings, but also ensure that the puncture device can maintain a stable trajectory and movement during operation. The use of the front flange 6 and the rear flange 13 simplifies the installation and replacement process of the bearings. This modular design allows maintenance personnel to perform maintenance and repairs more easily, improves the reliability and maintainability of the equipment, and reduces maintenance time and cost. Fixing the bearings on the shaft cylinder can reduce the lateral movement and swing of the optical axis, thereby improving the control accuracy of the piezoelectric driver over the movement of the optical axis.

[0044] Embodiment 4: This embodiment further limits the bipedal cooperative stepping two-degree-of-freedom cross-scale piezoelectric puncture device described in Embodiment 2. The piezoelectric puncture device further includes: a front shell 8; the front shell 8 is sleeved on the outside of the shaft cylinder 9.

[0045] In this embodiment, the front housing 8 is mounted on the shaft cylinder 9 as an outer part, which can effectively protect the internal mechanical and electronic components from the influence of the external environment. This design can prevent dust, water vapor or other external impurities from entering the shaft cylinder, reduce the risk of damage to the equipment due to environmental factors, and thus improve the long-term stability and durability of the equipment.

[0046] Implementation method 5: See Figure 2 This embodiment is described. This embodiment is a further limitation of the bipedal cooperative stepping two-degree-of-freedom cross-scale piezoelectric puncture device described in Embodiment 1, wherein the piezoelectric driver 2 includes a driving foot 2-1, a bending composite linear piezoelectric unit 2-3, a flexible flange 2-5, a ball head 2-6, and a first piezoelectric stack 2-7; the driving foot 2-1 is fixedly mounted on the top of the bending composite linear piezoelectric unit 2-3; the flexible flange 2-5 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the bending composite linear piezoelectric unit 2-3; the ball head 2-6 and the gasket 2-8 are respectively attached to the top and bottom of the first piezoelectric stack 2-7, and the ball head 2-6 contacts the center of the boss of the flexible flange 2-5, and transmits the output motion of the first piezoelectric stack 2-7 to the bending composite linear piezoelectric unit 2-3 through the annular thin wall of the flexible flange 2-5.

[0047] In this embodiment, the driving foot 2-1 is fixedly mounted on the top of the curved composite linear piezoelectric unit 2-3, and the flexible flange 2-5 is fixedly mounted on its bottom, forming a stable driving unit. This design effectively transmits the driving force and reduces energy loss by directly connecting the driving foot 2-1 and the piezoelectric unit, thereby improving the driving efficiency and motion accuracy. The design of the curved composite linear piezoelectric unit 2-3 can reduce mechanical vibration and noise during the driving process. This structure can output motion more smoothly, which is particularly important for puncture operations that require precise control, such as minimally invasive surgery or laboratory operations. The ball head 2-6 and the gasket 2-8 are attached to the top and bottom of the first piezoelectric stack and are connected to it through the annular thin wall of the flexible flange 2-5. This design enables the output motion of the piezoelectric unit to be flexibly transmitted to the working end of the puncture device, with fast response speed and wide range of motion, adapting to different work requirements and environmental changes.

[0048] The design of integrating the driving foot 2-1, the curved composite linear piezoelectric unit 2-3, the flexible flange 2-5, and the ball head 2-6 in this embodiment optimizes the structural layout of the device, making it more compact and efficient. This not only saves space, but also reduces friction and wear between components, prolongs the service life of the device and improves stability. The tight integration and firm fixation of all key components improve the operational reliability and safety of the device. It reduces accidents caused by loose or falling parts, which is particularly important in high-risk medical or experimental operations.

[0049] Embodiment 6. This embodiment is a further limitation of the bipedal collaborative stepping two-degree-of-freedom cross-scale piezoelectric puncture device described in embodiment 5. The piezoelectric driver 2 also includes an outer cylinder 2-4 and a gasket 2-8. The outer cylinder 2-4 is mounted on the outside of the curved composite linear piezoelectric unit 2-3, and the gasket 2-8 is installed in the inner bottom center groove of the outer cylinder 2-4.

[0050] Embodiment 7. This embodiment is a further limitation of the bipedal collaborative stepping two-degree-of-freedom cross-scale piezoelectric puncture device described in embodiment 6. The piezoelectric driver 2 also includes four ball head screws 2-2, which are circumferentially symmetrically installed in the cylinder 2-4 and in contact with the outer side of the curved composite linear piezoelectric unit 2-3, and are used to provide a supporting force with equal pressure and opposite direction between the driving foot 2-1 and the optical axis 5.

[0051] This embodiment is explained in conjunction with the sixth embodiment. The installation method of the outer cylinder 2-4 and the gasket 2-8 mentioned in the sixth embodiment, as well as the ball screw 2-2 in the seventh embodiment, are helpful to enhance the stability and accuracy of the piezoelectric driver. The installation of the outer cylinder 2-4 and the gasket 2-8 makes the movement of the curved composite linear piezoelectric unit 2-3 more stable, reduces unnecessary vibration and displacement, and thus improves the accuracy of the puncture device during operation.

[0052] The use of four ball screws 2-2 mentioned in the seventh embodiment, which are circumferentially symmetrically installed in the cylinder and in contact with the curved composite linear piezoelectric unit 2-3, can provide a support force in the opposite direction of the optical axis 5. This support force is a key factor in balancing the pressure between the driving foot and the optical axis, ensuring the stability and controllability of the puncture during operation. Due to these designs, the operating accuracy of the entire puncture device is improved. The user can control the movement of the puncture device more finely, so that it can perform precise punctures at the required position and depth, which is particularly important for medical and laboratory applications. These further limitations not only enhance the performance, but also optimize the structural design of the device. By introducing components such as the outer cylinder 2-4, the gasket 2-8 and the ball screw 2-2 into the piezoelectric driver, mechanical stress and force transmission can be better managed, making the entire device more durable.

[0053] Implementation Method 8: See Figure 3Description of this embodiment. This embodiment is a further limitation of the bipedal collaborative stepping two-degree-of-freedom cross-scale piezoelectric puncture device described in embodiment five, wherein the curved composite linear piezoelectric unit 2-3 includes a series-parallel flexible mechanism 2-31, an inner cylinder 2-32, a flexible beam 2-33, a four-partition piezoelectric ceramic group 2-34, a base 2-35 and a first pre-tightening screw 2-36; the four-partition piezoelectric ceramic group 2-34 is fixedly mounted between the flexible beam 2-33 and the base 2-35 by the first pre-tightening screw 2-36, the inner cylinder 2-32 is fixedly mounted on the base 2-35, and the flexible beam 2-33 is respectively fixedly connected to the inner cylinder 2-32 and the flexible beam 2-33; the flexible beam 2-33 is provided with a completely symmetrical flexible hinge mechanism, and the series-parallel flexible mechanism 2-31 is connected to the flexible beam 2-33 using a series-parallel beam structure.

[0054] In this embodiment, the curved composite linear piezoelectric unit 2-3 adopts a complex structure of a series-parallel flexible mechanism 2-31, an inner cylinder 2-32, a flexible beam 2-33, a four-partition piezoelectric ceramic group 2-34, a base 2-35 and a first pre-tightening screw 2-36. The combination of these components enables the puncture device to achieve highly precise motion control during operation, thereby ensuring excellent performance in minimally invasive surgery and other occasions requiring high precision. The four-partition piezoelectric ceramic group 2-34 is fixed between the flexible beam 2-33 and the base 2-35 by the first pre-tightening screw 2-36, and the fixation of the inner cylinder 2-32 enhances the overall stability. The design of the flexible beam 2-33 utilizes a completely symmetrical flexible hinge mechanism 2-31, so that the piezoelectric unit has optimized mechanical properties when working and can withstand greater stress without losing stability. The combination of the series-parallel flexible mechanism 2-31 and the flexible beam 2-33 adopts a series-parallel beam structure, which further enhances the stability and controllability of the overall structure. This design not only optimizes the mechanical properties, but also takes into account various mechanical challenges that may be encountered during use, thereby ensuring the reliability of the puncture device and its stability in long-term use.

[0055] Embodiment 9. This embodiment is a further limitation of the bipedal collaborative stepping two-degree-of-freedom cross-scale piezoelectric puncture device described in embodiment 8. The flexible hinge mechanism of the flexible beam 2-33 is any one of a completely symmetrical straight circular structure, a straight beam structure, and an elliptical structure.

[0057] In this embodiment, the second piezoelectric stack 3-2 in the locking device 3 is installed in the locking mechanism 3-1 through the first wedge block 3-3, the second wedge block 3-4 and the second pre-tightening screw 3-5, and can realize the linear motion output of a single degree of freedom. This design utilizes the piezoelectric effect, provides high-precision position control and motion stability, and ensures that the locking foot at the top of the locking mechanism 3-1 can accurately and reliably perform the required linear motion during operation. The locking mechanism 3-1 adopts a series-parallel beam structure. This design realizes the linear motion output of the locking foot through the direct drive of the second piezoelectric stack 3-2 while maintaining a compact structure. This compact design not only saves space, but also improves the efficiency and response speed of the device, and is suitable for applications that require fast operation and precise control. By adopting the second piezoelectric stack 3-2 and its driving mechanism, the motion output of the locking mechanism 3-1 has good stability and reliability. This is particularly important in minimally invasive surgery or other applications that require highly accurate positioning and stability, and can ensure the safety and success rate of the operation. Since the design takes into account the advantages of the series-parallel beam structure and piezoelectric technology, this implementation method has strong adaptability and can cope with different working environments and needs. Whether in surgical instruments in the medical field or other industrial applications, it can provide stable and precise motion control solutions.
