Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of friction-induced stick-slip vibration monitoring, and particularly to a method and an implementation device for collecting friction-induced stick-slip vibration with a wide frequency band. Background Art
[0002] Friction-induced stick-slip vibration is a typical self-excited vibration, commonly found in various mechanical systems, such as dry friction systems with low relative sliding speeds like cutting systems, windshield wipers, and vehicle base braking. Especially during the train braking process, when the train speed is close to a complete stop, the vehicle will exhibit obvious flutter behavior, accompanied by low-frequency creep groaning noise, seriously affecting the riding comfort of passengers. Additionally, practical engineering applications have also shown that this flutter behavior can cause problems such as chipping of the train brake pads, seriously endangering traffic safety. Although this vibration is harmful and difficult to completely eliminate, due to its considerable energy, energy harvesting technology can be used to convert it into electrical energy, and the harvested electrical energy can power micro-sensors installed on the braking interface to passively monitor the health status of the braking interface.
[0003] Existing technologies mainly rely on piezoelectric materials or electromagnetic induction devices to convert vibration energy into electrical energy. However, piezoelectric materials have low response efficiency to low-frequency vibrations (such as vibrations in the 0.1 - 100 Hz range during the train braking creep stage) and are prone to performance degradation due to mechanical fatigue; electromagnetic devices require precise alignment and continuous relative motion, making it difficult to adapt to the complex multi-degree-of-freedom vibration environment of the braking interface. As a new technology, triboelectric nanogenerators have good low-frequency response capabilities and are well-suited for low-frequency vibration excitations such as friction-induced stick-slip vibration. There are still certain deficiencies in the method and implementation device for collecting friction-induced stick-slip vibration with a wide frequency band in terms of energy conversion efficiency and adaptability. In traditional methods, the energy oscillator has a weak response under low-frequency vibration conditions, resulting in limited energy harvesting effect for friction-induced stick-slip vibration. At the same time, the working frequency bands of these methods are relatively narrow and cannot cover a wide range of vibration frequencies, making it difficult for them to effectively adapt to different vibration environments. In addition, existing devices cannot dynamically adjust their own potential energy according to the strength and frequency changes of stick-slip vibration, so that under different vibration conditions, their energy conversion efficiency is low and it is difficult to effectively utilize external vibration energy. This fixed potential energy characteristic limits the adaptive ability of the device, resulting in a decrease in energy conversion rate during low-frequency stick-slip vibration and affecting the stability and practicality of energy harvesting. Therefore, how to improve the low-frequency response ability, broaden the working frequency band, and achieve adaptive potential energy adjustment to more efficiently convert friction-induced stick-slip vibration energy remains an urgent problem in this field.
[0004] To this end, the present application proposes a method and an implementation device for collecting friction-induced stick-slip vibrations in a wide frequency band, aiming to effectively collect the vibration energy caused by stick-slip vibrations, and using an efficient nanogenerator as an energy conversion medium to convert the relative motion between friction interfaces into electrical energy.

[0026] Among them, P is the magnitude of the pre-tightening force, and dζ is the element of a point on the elastic beam.
[0027] The transverse displacement of the clamping beam is updated in the form of a series of orthogonal modal vibration modes multiplied by the time coordinate, and the expression is:
[0028] w(x,t) = q(t)φ(x)
[0029] where q(t) represents the modal coordinate related to time, and φ(x) represents the vibration mode of the elastic beam;
[0030] Define the Lagrangian:

[0039] α = EI∫ o L φ″ 2 dx - P∫0 L φ′ 2 dx
[0040]
[0041] Γ = ρA∫0 L φdx + mφ(0.5L)
[0042] where, represents the second derivative of the modal coordinate with respect to time, represents the first derivative of the modal coordinate with respect to time, is the second derivative of the external excitation with respect to time, c is the damping coefficient, I is the moment of inertia of the elastic beam, φ′ represents the first derivative of a point on the mode shape function with respect to the coordinate, and φ″ represents the second derivative of a point on the mode shape function with respect to the coordinate.
[0043] Further, the frictional force equation has the following expression:

[0046] Assume P1 * = k2H, then the relationship between k1 and k2 is as follows:
[0047] k1 + k2 = 1
[0048] where k1 and k2 represent position coefficients. Without loss of generality, considering the sticking state during the friction process, the condition for sticking to occur is:

[0061] According to Ohm's law, the voltage across the external resistor is: The equivalent circuit differential equation of the TEH is:
[0062]
[0063] where R is the value of the external resistor.
[0064] In a second aspect, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is an apparatus for realizing broadband collection of friction-induced stick-slip vibrations. The apparatus includes: a main vibration elastic beam structure, one end of the main vibration elastic beam structure is clamped at a fixed end, and one end of the main vibration elastic beam structure is clamped on a movable support block and clamped with a clamping block.
[0065] There is a pre-tightening nut on the movable end side that can apply a pre-tightening force P to compress the elastic beam from the free state to a mono-stable and bi-stable structure. There is a slider cavity in the middle of the elastic beam. In the internal cross-sectional view of the slider cavity, there is a slider that can move along the cavity on each of the left and right sides of the main vibration elastic beam structure.
[0066] The inside of the slider is a hollow structure with a compression spring inside, which can provide a spring force to press the left and right sliders against the left and right side walls respectively. A PTFE film is pasted on the surface of the slider. Correspondingly, there is a copper foil at the upper end of the wall and a PTFE film at the lower end.

[0077] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0078] The present invention utilizes the Maxwell displacement current effect of the triboelectric nanogenerator on the dry friction interface to convert the frictional-induced stick-slip vibration energy into electrical energy. At the same time, in order to overcome the disadvantages of narrow working frequency band and poor adaptability of traditional energy harvesters, the present invention proposes a method and an implementation device for wide-band collecting frictional-induced stick-slip vibration with adjustable potential energy. This method changes the internal potential energy by adjusting the pre-tightening force applied at both ends of the clamping beam, and according to the magnitude of the pre-tightening force, it can form a single-stable or double-stable vibration structure. The advantage is that it can adapt to the vibration environment through its own adjustment according to the frequency and intensity of the stick-slip vibration, achieving an adaptive energy conversion effect.
[0079] As Figure 1 shown, a method for wide-band collecting frictional-induced stick-slip vibration, the method comprising:
[0080] Step S1, designing a variable-stable vibration structure with adjustable potential energy by using the principle of slender beam buckling under compression. The vibration structure includes a main elastic beam vibration structure, one end of which is clamped and fixed on a base, and the other end is applied with longitudinal pressure through a nut to adjust the internal potential energy of the elastic beam and change its vibration characteristics. There is a pair of sliders in the middle part of the elastic beam, and the end faces of the sliders are in contact with the wall surfaces, forming two pairs of friction pairs, and constructing the initial dynamic motion equation of the elastic beam;
[0081] Specifically, by using the principle of slender beam buckling under compression, a variable-stable vibration structure with adjustable potential energy is designed. The structure includes an elastic beam as the main vibration structure, one end of which is fixed on a base, and the other end is applied with longitudinal pressure through a nut, thereby adjusting the internal potential energy of the elastic beam and changing its vibration characteristics. This design enables the elastic beam to form a single-stable or multi-stable vibration mode under different force conditions, improving the adaptability of energy collection. In addition, a pair of sliders is arranged in the middle part of the elastic beam, and the end faces of the sliders are in contact with the wall surfaces, forming two pairs of friction pairs, so that the vibration of the beam is affected by friction at the end faces of the sliders. This structural design lays the foundation for vibration energy collection and provides a basis for subsequent mathematical modeling by constructing the initial dynamic motion equation of the elastic beam.
[0082] Step S2, setting a triboelectric nanogenerator on the friction pair to convert the relative motion between the friction pairs into electrical energy. The triboelectric nanogenerator consists of two copper foil electrodes and a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film placed between the two layers of copper foil electrodes; this design utilizes the Maxwell displacement current principle to generate electron transfer, and can achieve the purpose of converting the relative motion between the friction pairs into electrical energy;
[0083] Specifically, a triboelectric nanogenerator is integrated at the position of the friction pair to convert the relative motion between the friction pairs into electrical energy. The triboelectric nanogenerator mainly consists of two copper foil electrodes and a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) film placed between the two layers of copper foil electrodes. When the vibration structure undergoes periodic motion, the friction pair between the slider and the wall surface generates relative displacement of contact and separation, thereby generating charge transfer between the copper foil electrodes and forming a voltage output. This energy conversion mechanism can effectively collect the energy of friction-induced stick-slip vibration and provide a stable electrical energy output, enabling the system to not only have the ability to convert mechanical vibration but also achieve efficient collection of electrical energy.

[0085] Specifically, based on the structural design of steps S1 and S2, derive the potential energy function and kinetic energy function of the elastic beam, and construct the dynamic motion equation of the elastic beam according to the Lagrange equation. The Lagrange equation can describe the energy balance relationship of the system. By analyzing the motion law of the elastic beam under different initial potential energies and force conditions, a mathematical model is established. This process can not only reflect the steady-state characteristics of the structure but also provide a basis for subsequent electromechanical coupling modeling. By constructing this dynamic equation, the response characteristics of the vibration system can be deeply studied, and its energy collection efficiency can be further optimized.
[0086] Step S4: Model the frictional force between the friction pairs in step S1 according to Coulomb's friction law and construct a frictional force equation;
[0087] Specifically, according to Coulomb's friction law, model the frictional force of the friction pair in step S1 and construct a frictional force equation. Coulomb's friction law shows that the magnitude of the frictional force is related to the normal pressure of the contact surface and the coefficient of friction. In this system, the frictional interaction between the slider and the wall surface directly affects the vibration behavior of the elastic beam. Therefore, it is necessary to accurately describe the variation characteristics of the frictional force. Frictional force modeling can not only reveal the influence of the friction pair on the vibration mode of the system but also provide a mathematical expression of frictional energy consumption for subsequent electromechanical coupling analysis.
[0088] Step S5: Construct the electrodynamic equation of the triboelectric nanogenerator in step S2 according to Kirchhoff's law;
[0089] Specifically, according to Kirchhoff's laws, the electrodynamic equations of the triboelectric nanogenerator are constructed to describe the process of charge accumulation and transmission during the energy conversion process. Kirchhoff's laws include the current law (KCL) and the voltage law (KVL), which are used to analyze the circuit characteristics of the triboelectric nanogenerator. During the movement of the triboelectric nanogenerator, charge transfer occurs, forming a dynamic electric field. Therefore, it is necessary to combine the electrodynamic equations to describe the charge accumulation, dissipation, and voltage output characteristics. This modeling process can predict the voltage change law under different vibration conditions, laying a foundation for optimizing the energy output of the system.
[0090] Step S6: Obtain the mechanical-electrical coupling control equation of the entire energy harvesting system by synthesizing steps S3, S4, and S5.
[0091] Specifically, by synthesizing step S3 (vibration structure dynamics), step S4 (friction force equation), and step S5 (electrodynamic equation), the mechanical-electrical coupling control equation of the entire energy harvesting system is obtained. This equation combines the motion equation of the elastic beam, the friction force characteristics, and the charge accumulation behavior of the triboelectric nanogenerator to form a complete energy conversion model. This mechanical-electrical coupling equation can describe the overall dynamic characteristics of the system and reveal the specific mechanism of the conversion of mechanical energy into electrical energy, providing a theoretical basis for optimizing the design and adjustment strategy of the energy harvesting system.
[0092] Step S7: Solve the motion and output voltage of the system using the mechanical-electrical coupling control equation in step S6, optimize the key parameters in this design, compare the energy output performance between the monostable and multistable states, and achieve adaptive adjustment of different stable-state structures according to different vibration environments to reach the optimal output of the system.
[0093] Specifically, using the mechanical-electrical coupling control equation in step S6, solve the motion behavior and output voltage of the system, and optimize the key parameters. Through numerical simulation, analyze the influence of different stable states (monostable, multistable) on the energy output, and compare the energy harvesting performance under different working conditions. In addition, the system can adaptively adjust the stable-state structure according to different vibration environments to optimize the energy output, enabling it to maintain high efficiency under different conditions. Finally, through experimental verification and parameter optimization, ensure that the system can achieve the best energy harvesting performance in a complex vibration environment.

[0144] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, a device for realizing broadband collection of friction-induced stick-slip vibration, which is used to implement a method for broadband collection of friction-induced stick-slip vibration. The device includes: a main vibration elastic beam structure 6, with a length of 80 mm, a width of 20 mm, a thickness of 0.2 mm, and the material is stainless steel; one end of the main vibration elastic beam structure 6 is clamped on the fixed end 1, and one end of the main vibration elastic beam structure 6 is clamped on the movable support block 10 and clamped with the clamping block 7.
[0145] On the movable side, there is a pre-tightening nut 8 that can apply a pre-tightening force P to compress the elastic beam from the free state to the single-stable and double-stable structures. There is a slider cavity 3 in the middle of the elastic beam. The internal height of the slider cavity is 20 mm, the width is 20 mm. On the left and right sides of the internal sectional view of the slider cavity of the main vibration elastic beam structure 6, there are two sliders 12 and 13 that can move along the cavity.
[0146] The inside of the slider is a hollow structure, with compression springs 15 and 16 inside. The stiffness of the springs can be replaced according to the actual required frictional force, and its function is to provide spring forces to press the left and right sliders against the left and right side walls 2 and 9 respectively. PTFE films 11 and 14 are pasted on the surface of the slider. Correspondingly, there is a copper foil 4 at the upper end of the wall and a PTFE film 5 at the lower end.
[0147] The PTFE film on the slider, the copper foil on the side wall and the PTFE film together form a triboelectric nanogenerator.
[0148] When the entire structure is subjected to external excitation, relative displacement will occur between the slider and the wall due to the inertial force. Especially when the external excitation frequency is low, the relative movement speed of the slider is low. Due to the difference in the static and dynamic friction coefficients between the slider and the wall, the slider will generate stick-slip vibration relative to the wall. The relative displacement caused by this vibration will generate Maxwell displacement current inside the nanogenerator, thus converting the stick-slip vibration energy into electrical energy.
[0149] As Figure 4 shown is the variation trend of the static equilibrium point and elastic potential energy of the elastic beam with the pre-tightening force in this embodiment. It can be found from the figure that when the pre-tightening force is small, the elastic beam has only one static equilibrium point, indicating that the system is monostable at this time; when the pre-tightening force exceeds a certain critical point, the critical point of the system suddenly becomes two, indicating that the system has become a bistable system. From the potential energy functions under different pre-tightening forces, it can be seen that when the pre-tightening force is less than the critical value, the potential energy decreases with the increase of the pre-tightening force; when the pre-tightening force exceeds the critical value, the shape of the potential energy function changes, and the origin in the middle changes from the lowest potential energy point to a local highest point, forming symmetric potential wells on both sides. Moreover, with the further increase of the pre-tightening force, the depth of the potential well becomes deeper. By adjusting the magnitude of the pre-tightening force, the vibration behavior of the elastic beam can be changed.
[0150] Figure 5 shown are the voltage signal generated by the triboelectric nanogenerator and the vibration displacement signal of the slider under an external excitation of 3 Hz. It can be seen from the figure that the slider has obvious stick-slip vibration phenomenon. When the slider is in the sticking state, its vibration displacement remains constant, and correspondingly its output voltage value is zero. Only when the slider is in the sliding state, its output voltage value is non-zero, which proves that the device can effectively collect stick-slip vibration energy.
[0151] Figure 6 shown is the variation of the vibration amplitude of the slider and the output voltage amplitude with the vibration frequency. Figure 7 shown is the amplitude-frequency curve of the linear vibration energy harvester. It can be found that the voltage amplitude and vibration amplitude of this energy harvester first increase with the increase of the frequency. When the frequency is greater than a certain critical value, the vibration and voltage suddenly disappear. Its effective frequency bandwidth can reach 17 Hz, which is much larger than the effective frequency bandwidth of the linear system, about 2 Hz.
