Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of optical telescope assembly, and in particular to a flexible large-scale precision glass lifting fixture and a method for parameterizing and optimizing the position of the lifting points. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of modern astronomy, the aperture of ground-based large optical telescopes has been continuously increasing. The diameter of the primary mirror has evolved from the early 1-meter and 2-meter classes to the current 4-meter, 8-meter, and even larger. Large optical glass primary mirrors are not only enormous in diameter but also extremely heavy. For example, a primary mirror with a diameter of 4 meters can weigh more than 10 tons. Furthermore, during the manufacturing process, it undergoes high-precision polishing and coating treatment, making its surface extremely fragile and requiring very high precision in force distribution and contact positions.
[0003] When handling such glass primary mirrors, a bottom-supported hoisting method is usually used to avoid placing hoisting points directly on the mirror surface. However, the back of the telescope primary mirror often has dozens or even hundreds of support points. These support points must be completely avoided during handling; otherwise, it is very easy to cause stress concentration or damage to the coating on the primary mirror surface.
[0004] Existing lifting equipment typically employs a rigid frame structure, supporting the glass bottom surface with multiple lifting claws. However, when the number of lifting points is limited and the load is enormous, the rigid structure struggles to ensure even stress distribution across all points, easily leading to overloading of some claws and damaging the lifting equipment or the main mirror itself. Furthermore, due to the large diameter and complex weight distribution of large main mirrors, adjusting the claw positions and avoiding interference with support points during hoisting are cumbersome, resulting in low efficiency and high risk.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a lifting device that combines flexible force balancing capability with precise position adjustment capability, which can improve the flexibility and reliability of the lifting process while ensuring the safety of large precision optical glass. Summary of the Invention

This flexible large-scale precision glass lifting fixture and parameterized optimization method for the position of the lifting point can achieve flexible force balance and precise position adjustment without damaging the optical glass, thus enabling the lifting of large optical glass with a diameter of over 4 meters and a weight of over 10 tons.
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:
[0008] A method for parameterizing and optimizing the position of the lifting point of a flexible large-scale precision glass lifting fixture includes the following steps.
[0009] S1. Obtain the structural and operational parameters of the glass to be hoisted; wherein, the glass to be hoisted is in the shape of a ring, and the operational parameters include hoisting posture, installation space, and bottom interference area.

Based on the circular thin plate bending theory and Kirchhoff thin plate theory, a finite element model of the glass surface is established to calculate the maximum deflection of the glass, the root mean square error of the glass surface, and the coefficient of non-uniformity of the support reaction force for different candidate suspension points.
[0012] S4. Construct the feasible region of the lifting point based on the working parameters, candidate lifting points, and the motion envelope of the lifting device.

Construct a multi-objective function minF with the suspension point position parameter X as the design variable; where F is the weighted sum of at least two of the following: maximum glass deflection, root mean square error of glass surface shape, and coefficient of non-uniformity of support reaction force.
[0014] S6. Within the feasible region of the lifting point, the particle swarm optimization algorithm is used to solve the multi-objective function to obtain the optimal lifting point position parameter X.
[0015] S7. Substitute the optimal lifting point position parameter X into the finite element model of the glass surface for verification, and determine the final lifting point position parameter based on the balance of support reaction force, glass deformation, and installation feasibility.

[0017] In S3, using the finite element model of the glass surface, it is also necessary to calculate the reaction force at each support point and the maximum principal stress of the glass under each candidate suspension point; therefore, in S4, the feasible region of the suspension point must simultaneously satisfy the following constraints:

[0022] C. Each inner ring lifting point and each outer ring lifting point meet the requirements for lifting tool installation and rotation avoidance.
[0023] D. The reaction force at the support point does not exceed the set upper limit.
[0024] E. The maximum deflection and maximum principal stress of the glass shall not exceed the allowable values.
[0025] In S1, the structural parameters include the diameter of the glass to be hoisted. ,thickness ,weight Center of gravity position Elastic modulus Compared to Poisson ;in, Not less than 4 meters It can exceed 10 tons.
