Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of precision measurement technology, and in particular to a device and method for adjusting the stiffness of a quartz hemispherical harmonic oscillator. Background Technology
[0002] The quartz hemispherical resonator gyroscope is a typical example of a Coriolis force vibration gyroscope with the highest potential for accuracy. The gyroscopic principle of the hemispherical resonator gyroscope can be further extended to the standing wave (solid wave) sensitive angular velocity effect. The four antinodes of a quartz hemispherical resonator oscillate have two vibration modes at 45° to each other. Ideally, the natural frequencies of the two vibration modes of the quartz hemispherical resonator oscillate are the same, at which point the gyroscope has optimal performance. Although many advanced manufacturing techniques are adopted, from the perspective of vibration dynamics, unavoidable manufacturing process errors can lead to uneven circumferential distribution of the resonator's mass, stiffness, density, quality factor, and damping. This results in harmonics generated during the lip vibration of the resonator oscillator, causing a difference in the natural frequencies of the two modes of the four antinodes, a phenomenon known as frequency splitting. The presence of frequency splitting causes coupling between the vibrations of the two modes of the quartz hemispherical resonator oscillator, which is the main source of error affecting the accuracy of the hemispherical resonator gyroscope. Therefore, during the gyroscope manufacturing process, it is necessary to adjust the frequency splitting to improve the gyroscope's accuracy.
[0003] The tuning of a quartz hemispherical resonator is mainly achieved through ion beam etching to remove mass. Traditional frequency splitting tuning methods remove mass from the axes of the two resonator's lower-frequency vibration modes to achieve leveling. (The last sentence appears to be incomplete and possibly refers to a different topic: "For the vibration angular frequency of the quartz hemispherical resonator...") equivalent stiffness k equivalent quality m According to the formula
[0004] (1)
[0005] When the temperature of the resonator changes, the equivalent mass of the quartz material remains constant due to the linear correlation between its frequency characteristics and temperature, but the stiffness changes accordingly. This alters the frequency splitting of the two intrinsic modes, affecting the stability and accuracy of the hemispherical resonator gyroscope. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the stiffness unevenness of the quartz hemispherical resonator to reduce frequency splitting and improve the stability and accuracy of the hemispherical resonator gyroscope.
[0006] The stiffness non-uniformity adjustment of the quartz hemispherical harmonic oscillator is also based on the temperature characteristics of the quartz material. Let the eigenfrequency of the harmonic oscillator be denoted as... Assuming the harmonic oscillator undergoes frequency fragmentation after mass tuning... At this time, the difference between the two equivalent stiffness axes The difference between the two equivalent mass axes satisfy .
[0007] When the ambient temperature rises, the frequency of the harmonic oscillator changes. According to equation (1), the stiffness of the harmonic oscillator changes and becomes k’ :
[0008] (2)
[0009] At this point, the stiffness changes and no longer satisfies the condition. The change in frequency splitting is denoted as:
[0010] (3)
[0011] Right now:
[0012] (4)
[0013] Among them, mass imbalance No change, stiffness imbalance The change is very small and negligible, so equation (3) can be transformed into:
[0014] (5)
[0015] Substituting equations (2) and (5) into equation (4), we get:
[0016] (6)
[0017] Equation (6) shows the relationship between frequency splitting and frequency. After frequency tuning is completed, frequency splitting will occur as the frequency changes because the stiffness (mass) imbalance still exists.
[0018] Since precision-machined quartz hemispherical harmonic oscillators are typically made of fused silica, the material density is highly uniform. Inconsistencies in stiffness and mass are usually caused by machining errors, such as coaxiality differences. Therefore, the stiffness and mass inconsistencies are highly consistent; that is, the stiffness, mass, and frequency axes are aligned. In actual tuning, adjusting the stiffness and mass of the frequency axis separately can achieve the temperature-resistance characteristics for frequency distortion.
[0019] By establishing a simulation model in ANSYS software and removing weights from the edge of the quartz hemispherical resonator, it can be observed that when the weight removal depth is less than 4 micrometers, the resonator's vibration frequency gradually decreases. According to equation (1), this stage is mainly a mass-sensitive region. When the weight removal depth exceeds 4 micrometers, the resonator's vibration frequency gradually increases. According to equation (1), this stage is mainly a stiffness-sensitive region. Therefore, removing weights from the low-frequency axis of the quartz hemispherical resonator and adjusting the mass can reduce frequency fragmentation, while removing weights from the high-frequency axis and adjusting the stiffness can reduce frequency fragmentation. Summary of the Invention
