Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the fields of elliptical vibration-assisted cutting (EVC) technology and mechanism motion modeling and design, and more specifically, to the theory and method of flexible mechanism design and the application of piezoelectrically actuated high-precision micro-nano positioning platforms and other related fields. Background Art

[0002] Elliptical Vibration-Assisted Cutting (EVC) is an advanced manufacturing technology that has been widely used in various fields, including micro-nanostructure fabrication, optical mold manufacturing, and composite material processing, due to its superior precision machining performance when machining difficult-to-machine materials. However, with the growing demand for high-precision and complex structures in the manufacturing industry, the design of high-performance EVC devices faces several new challenges.

[0003] First, the spatial complexity of micro- and nanostructured surfaces inevitably requires cutting tools with multiple degrees of freedom to match the desired geometry. Second, the extreme miniaturization of equipment requires cutting tools with higher operating bandwidth and relative stability. Finally, in addition to ensuring high precision and performance, design must also consider cost-effectiveness, finding a balance between accuracy requirements and manufacturing costs.

[0004] The driving force in EVCs is primarily provided by piezoelectric actuators, which offer advantages such as high rigidity, fast frequency response, and precise positioning accuracy. Motion guidance mechanisms are generally categorized into four types: flexure hinge mechanisms, high-precision gas bearings, ultrasonic levitation, and magnetic levitation. Due to factors such as structural size and cost, flexure hinge mechanisms are primarily used to achieve force transmission and motion guidance at the submillimeter and millimeter scales. Currently, the main theoretical frameworks and methods for kinematic modeling and design of EVC mechanisms include pseudo-rigid body theory, the second integral calculus theorem (ICST), finite element analysis (FEA), inverse kinematics modeling (IKM) based on Lagrange's equations, screw theory (ST), and matrix-based compliance modeling (MCM). However, the coupled nature of the kinematics presents challenges in the design of EVC mechanisms, limiting the performance improvement of dual-axis EVC worktables.

[0005] In summary, given the geometric intuition and efficiency of screw theory (ST) in kinematic analysis, and the superior accuracy and simplicity of matrix-based flexibility modeling in static analysis and small-deformation behavior description, this paper proposes a method that combines the stiffness matrix approach with screw theory. This integrated approach is used to reconstruct the mathematical model of the EVC worktable's flexible mechanism to analyze its kinematic, static, and dynamic characteristics. To further improve the precision and efficiency of ultra-precision auxiliary equipment, the development of cutting platforms requires not only mechanical structure design but also motion control. Considering the simplicity, ease of parameter adjustment, and effective control capabilities of PID controllers, as well as their strong compatibility with other control algorithms, a coupled PID control strategy combined with dynamic feedforward control solves the challenge of achieving high-performance motion control in EVC systems. Therefore, this invention not only provides important reference and guidance for various fields, such as precision engineering, elliptical vibration-assisted cutting, and topology optimization design of flexible mechanisms, but also possesses considerable academic and practical value.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] In order to more clearly illustrate the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention, embodiments of the present invention are now described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0040] Example 1

[0041] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, a novel decoupled dual-axis elliptical vibration-assisted cutting platform comprises a base 1, a corner mounting seat 2, a middle mounting seat 4, two drive units 3 arranged vertically at a 90° angle, a tool mounting block 6, and a displacement detection assembly 5. The corner mounting seats 2 are bolted to the corners of the base 1. Both drive units 3 are movably connected between the corner mounting seats 2 and the middle mounting seat 4. The two drive units 3 jointly drive the tool mounting block 6 for planar free movement in the x- and y-axis directions. The displacement detection assembly 5 is used to detect the displacement of the tool mounting block 6 within the xy plane.

[0042] The driving unit 3 includes a piezoelectric actuator 3-1, and a pendulum block 3-2, two movement constraint blocks 3-3, two amplification output blocks 3-4, a fixed block 3-5 and two direction constraint beams 3-6 that constitute a decoupled bridge amplification structure.

[0043] The specific connection method of the decoupled bridge amplification structure is as follows: the two opposing side surfaces of the pendulum block 3-2 are connected to the corner mounting seat 2 and the middle mounting seat 4 respectively via double parallel straight plate hinges. The fixed block 3-5 is fixed to the base 1 via bolts. The two movement constraint blocks 3-3 and the two amplification output blocks 3-4 are disposed between the pendulum block 3-2 and the fixed block 3-5. One end of the two movement constraint blocks 3-3 is connected to the two ends of the same side surface of the pendulum block 3-2 respectively via flexible hinges. One end of the two movement constraint blocks 3-3 is connected to one end of the two amplification output blocks 3-4 respectively via flexible hinges.

[0044] The two ends of the piezoelectric actuator 3-1 rest against the opposite ends of the pendulum block 3-2 and the fixed block 3-5, respectively, and are pre-tightened with bolts. The two ends of the same side of the amplifying output block 3-4, located near the tool mounting block 6, are connected to one end of two directional restraining beams 3-6 via a flexible hinge. The two ends of the side of the tool mounting block 6 facing the amplifying output block 3-4 are connected to the other ends of the two directional restraining beams 3-6 via a flexible hinge.

[0045] In this embodiment's decoupled bridge-type amplification structure, the pendulum block 3-2, two motion-constraining blocks 3-3, two amplifying output blocks 3-4, and one fixed block 3-5 form an input guide mechanism, ensuring that the motion direction of the amplifying output block 3-4 of the tool mounting block 6 is perpendicular to the piezoelectric actuator 3-1. Two parallel directional constraint beams 3-6 form a parallelogram mechanism, helping to maintain the motion direction of the tool mounting block 6 aligned with that of the connected amplifying output block 3-4.

[0046] The two drive units 3 are rotationally symmetrical at 90°, and the piezoelectric actuators 3-1 in each drive unit 3 extend and retract parallel to the x-axis and y-axis, respectively. The input guide mechanism enables the amplified output block 3-4, located near the tool mounting block 6, to provide stable, precise amplified motion perpendicular to the direction of extension and retraction of the piezoelectric actuator 3-1. This allows the drive unit 3 with the piezoelectric actuator 3-1 extending and retracting parallel to the x-axis to translate the tool mounting block 6 along the y-axis. The drive unit 3 with the piezoelectric actuator 3-1 extending and retracting parallel to the y-axis also translates the tool mounting block 6 along the x-axis.

[0047] The displacement detection assembly 5 includes a sensor mounting base 5-1 and two displacement sensors 5-2. The sensor mounting base 5-1 is fixed to the central mounting base 4. The two displacement sensors 5-2 are bolted to either end of the sensor mounting base 5-1, each facing the tool mounting block 6. The detection directions of the two displacement sensors 5-2 are perpendicular to each other and, in this embodiment, parallel to the x-axis and y-axis, respectively.

[0048] In this embodiment, the displacement sensor 5 - 2 is a capacitive displacement sensor 5 - 2 ; in some other embodiments, the displacement sensor 5 - 2 may also be other existing displacement sensors 5 - 2 such as a laser displacement sensor 5 - 2 .

[0049] In this embodiment, a diamond tool 7 is mounted on the tool mounting block 6. A displacement detection identification block fixed at the front end of the diamond tool 7 cooperates with two displacement sensors 5-2 to measure the displacement of the diamond tool 7 in two axial directions.
