Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hemispherical resonator gyroscope preparation, in particular to a hemispherical resonator anchor post mask device. Background Art
[0002] The HRG, a solid-state wave gyroscope based on the Coriolis effect, is an advanced inertial navigation sensor featuring high precision, high reliability, long life, and low noise. Its applications include navigation, guidance, and control systems for various strategic and tactical weapons in aerospace, aviation, maritime, and ground-based applications. The HRG's core component, the HRG, is made of high-purity fused quartz, which is hard and brittle, requiring long processing times and high production costs. Chemical etching of the HRG after machining increases the surface roughness of the anchor post. Furthermore, the HRG testing process typically requires fixtures to hold the anchor post, which inevitably causes clamping damage. This compromises the conductivity of the HRG's post after coating, resulting in failure to meet the high standards for assembly and continuity with the bottom electrode. Therefore, masking is often required before subsequent machining of the HRG to maintain the post's surface roughness and integrity, thereby improving HRG assembly accuracy.
[0003] However, since the hemispherical resonator is made of fused quartz material, it is brittle, thin-walled, and fragile, and its hemispherical shell structure is the main component for realizing angular velocity measurement, the processing precision requirements are extremely high and it is not allowed to be clamped. The outer anchor rod is very short and difficult to clamp stably for a long time. Therefore, it is difficult to clamp the hemispherical resonator anchor column with ordinary clamping tooling without causing clamping damage. Therefore, the hemispherical resonator anchor column mask is very important, and a specific clamping tooling for the hemispherical resonator anchor column mask needs to be designed.

[0027] The following describes the implementation methods of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings so that those skilled in the art can better understand the present invention and implement it. However, the enumerated embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention. Unless there is a conflict, the following embodiments and the technical features in the embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same components are represented by the same figure marks.
[0028] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the hemispherical resonator anchor column mask device of this embodiment includes a mask seat 1 and a base 2. The mask seat 1 is detachably connected to the top of the base 2. The hemispherical resonator 3 is placed on the base 2 with its opening facing upward.
[0029] The center of the mask seat 1 is recessed downward to form a mask cavity 11 for accommodating the masking liquid. A through hole 12 is provided on the bottom wall of the mask cavity 11 and penetrates the mask seat 1. The inner anchor post 31 of the hemispherical resonator 3 extends into the mask cavity 11 after the mask portion passes through the through hole 12. A seal 4 is provided between the inner anchor post 31 and the wall of the through hole 12 to prevent the masking liquid from overflowing out of the mask cavity 11.
[0030] As a result, the masking device can completely isolate the inner anchor post 31 of the hemispherical resonator 3 from the spherical shell, and can conveniently and accurately clamp and secure the hemispherical resonator 3, achieving damage-free and contamination-free masking of the inner anchor post 31 of the hemispherical resonator 3. After masking is completed, the excess masking fluid is removed from the masking cavity 11. Once a film of masking fluid has formed on the clamping end of the inner anchor post 31, the hemispherical resonator 3 can be removed from the masking device. After successful masking, the inner anchor post of the hemispherical resonator is protected during chemical etching, testing, or other subsequent processing steps, meeting the high standards required for assembly and conductivity with the bottom electrode.
[0031] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the installation of the seal 4, an annular groove 13 is opened on the hole wall of the through hole 12. The seal 4 is an annular sealing ring, the outer end of the annular sealing ring is clamped in the annular groove 13, and the inner end is in contact with the circumferential wall of the inner anchor column 31.
[0032] In this embodiment, in order to prevent the masking liquid from corroding the sealing member 4, the annular sealing ring is made of fluororubber.
[0033] In this embodiment, a mounting hole 21 is provided at the center of the base 2 for cooperating with the outer anchor column 32 of the hemispherical resonator 3. The outer anchor column 32 of the hemispherical resonator 3 is inserted into the mounting hole 21 so that the hemispherical resonator 3 is placed on the base 2 with its opening facing upward.
[0034] In other embodiments, the end surfaces of the outer anchor columns 32 of the hemispherical resonator 3 may be bonded to the top surface of the base 2 so that the hemispherical resonator 3 is placed on the base 2 with its opening facing upward.
[0035] In this embodiment, a positioning cylinder 14 is provided on the bottom surface of the mask holder 1 , and a positioning pin 22 is provided on the top surface of the base 2 to cooperate with the positioning cylinder 14 . The positioning pin 22 is inserted into the positioning cylinder 14 to detachably connect the mask holder 1 to the top of the base 2 .
[0036] Specifically, a plurality of positioning cylinders 14 are provided, and a plurality of positioning pins 22 are provided accordingly, and the plurality of positioning cylinders 14 are evenly distributed circumferentially around the mask cavity.
[0037] In other embodiments, the reverse can be done, with positioning pins set on the bottom surface of the mask holder 1 and positioning cylinders matching the positioning pins set on the top surface of the base 2, and the positioning pins inserted into the positioning cylinders to detachably connect the mask holder 1 to the top of the base 2.
[0038] In this embodiment, the mask seat 1 is provided with a plurality of first weight-reducing holes 15 , which are uniformly distributed circumferentially around the mask cavity 11 ; the base 2 is provided with a plurality of second weight-reducing holes 23 , which are uniformly distributed circumferentially around the mounting hole 21 .
[0039] The masking process of this embodiment is as follows:
[0040] The outer anchor post 32 of the hemispherical resonator 3 is inserted into the mounting hole 21 provided in the center of the base 2, and then the clamping end of the inner anchor post 31 is inserted into the mask cavity 11. The mask seat 1 and the base 2 are firmly connected by the positioning pin 22 and the positioning cylinder 14. After the support is completed, the clamping end of the inner anchor post 31 in the mask cavity can be masked, such as: adding masking liquid to the mask cavity 11 to soak the mask, brushing it with masking liquid, placing the jig into a magnetron sputtering device for masking, etc. The fluororubber ring is stuck in the annular groove 13 designed in the mask cavity 11 and moves with the movement of the base 2. Due to the characteristics of the fluororubber material itself, it has a certain elasticity. During the above-mentioned masking process, the fluororubber ring is tightly fitted with the bottom of the inner anchor post 31 of the hemispherical resonator 3, thereby preventing the masking liquid and the like from flowing down and contaminating the spherical shell of the hemispherical resonator, thereby isolating the inner anchor post 31 and the spherical shell. After the masking is completed, the excess masking liquid is removed from the masking cavity 11 . After the masking liquid forms a film at the clamping end of the inner anchor column 31 , the hemispherical resonator 3 is taken out from the masking fixture and the next step is continued.
[0041] Compared with the existing technology, this device has the following advantages:
[0042] 1) The device is simple to operate, convenient to use, safe and efficient, and can achieve full masking of the anchor post. The use and transfer process will not damage or contaminate the hemispherical resonator shell, thereby maintaining the good surface roughness and integrity of the hemispherical resonator anchor post after machining, and improving the test and assembly accuracy of the hemispherical resonator gyroscope;
[0043] 2) Suitable for various anchor post masking methods, including masking liquid immersion, brushing or magnetron sputtering masking.
