Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of precision docking platform technology, specifically relating to a novel high-precision six-degree-of-freedom adjustable alignment platform. Background Technology
[0002] In high-precision industrial fields such as precision manufacturing, semiconductor packaging, and aerospace, multi-degree-of-freedom adjustment platforms are core devices for achieving precision equipment posture adjustment, workpiece docking, and assembly. While traditional six-degree-of-freedom parallel platforms can achieve spatial posture adjustment, they face three major technical bottlenecks under complex working conditions: First, basic posture adjustment platforms (such as three-degree-of-freedom platforms) often use a series Hooke hinge structure, which has strong kinematic coupling, resulting in insufficient posture feedback accuracy (typically >0.1°), and is prone to accumulated hinge clearance errors under heavy loads; Second, existing correction mechanisms mostly adopt an XYθ three-axis independent drive mode, which is limited by the fit clearance between traditional ball screws and sliding guides, making it difficult to achieve sub-micron level (<0.5μm) dynamic correction, and there is a risk of motion interference when UVW axis linkage control is implemented; Third, horizontal movement modules often use single linear module drives, which are prone to module deflection deformation under heavy loads (>200kg), resulting in limited horizontal travel (typically <150mm) and poor motion stability.
[0003] Existing technologies propose a three-degree-of-freedom platform with dual closed-loop control, which improves attitude feedback accuracy by adding angle sensors. However, this does not solve the problem of uneven load distribution caused by the reverse installation of the Hooke joint, and still suffers from the limitation of platform deflection angle (within ±10°). Some published patents also provide a UVW axis linkage correction mechanism that uses crossed roller guides to reduce friction loss, but it lacks an integrated active / driven turntable collaborative drive mechanism, resulting in a delayed correction response speed (>50ms). Furthermore, most solutions neglect motion coupling interference between multi-level platforms. For example, the attitude adjustment of the lower-level platform can easily cause a reference offset in the upper-level correction mechanism, and existing feedback systems lack collaborative calibration of gyroscopes and linear modules, making it difficult to achieve dynamic error compensation across the entire link.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a six-degree-of-freedom adjustment platform that integrates high-precision attitude feedback, sub-micron-level dynamic correction, and large-stroke stable translation. Through the deep integration of multi-level mechanism collaborative design and control algorithms, it is possible to break through the technical barriers of full attitude docking of precision equipment under complex working conditions.

These cylinders drive the three-DOF upper platform, which is equipped with a horizontal Hooke joint, to move or perform tilting, backward tilting, and side tilting movements. The UVW alignment platform operates on the three-point methodology, which uses the positional relationship of three measurement points to determine the three-dimensional coordinates of the object under test. When using the UVW alignment platform for measurement, the object under test is first placed on the U-platform. Then, by rotating and flipping the U-platform, the measuring pins under the U-platform are aligned with the first measurement point of the object. Next, the V-platform and W-platform are adjusted so that the measuring pins under them are aligned with the second and third measurement points of the object, respectively. During the adjustment process, the distance and angle between the three measuring pins must remain constant. Once the three measuring pins are aligned with the three measurement points, the three-dimensional coordinates of the object can be determined by calculating the distance and angle between these measurement points. Simultaneously, a linear module and servo motors enable horizontal movement of the platform. The above movements can be performed synchronously, allowing for richer platform postures.
