DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0089] In order to enable a more clear understanding of the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present application, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0090] In the following description, a large number of specific details are set forth in order to facilitate a thorough understanding of the present application, but the present application can also be implemented in other manners different from those described herein, and therefore, the protective scope of the present application is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0091] The applicant analyzes and studies the existing piezoelectric pump structure, finds that in order to realize miniaturization and ultra-thin, the existing piezoelectric pump often reduces the setting of parts as much as possible, and a structure in which a single elastic membrane covers the fluid inlet and outlet is universally adopted. However, if the elastic membrane is too loose, it will be difficult to open the inlet and outlet; if it is set too loose, the covering effect will be poor, the sealing will not be strict, and leakage will occur, and the elastic membrane will also be fatigued after long-term use, and eventually fluid leakage will still occur.

[0092] Therefore, the applicant sets a first fixed layer, an elastic membrane layer and a second fixed layer in the micro integrated piezoelectric pump device provided by the present application. On the one hand, the first fixed layer, the elastic membrane layer and the second fixed layer are sheet structures, which will not have too much impact on miniaturization and ultra-thin, and on the other hand, the valve needs the first fixed layer and the elastic membrane layer to bend to the second fixed layer at the same time, and the elastic membrane layer abuts against the second fixed layer, so that the first fixed layer and the elastic membrane layer can be opened only when they are separated, thereby improving the sealing performance of the valve under the premise of ensuring miniaturization and ultra-thin.

Further, as shown in Fig. 3, a short channel 126 intersecting the four corners and connected to each flow channel 124 is provided at the end of each flow channel 124 away from the center through hole 122, the extension direction of each short channel 126 is not parallel to the extension direction of the connected flow channel 124, for example, the extension direction of the short channel 126 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the connected flow channel 124, and the short channel 126 is bidirectionally connected to the outside, so that the end of each flow channel 124 is connected to two adjacent side edges, and the four corner portions of the flow channel plate 120 remain intact. The bidirectionally connected short channels 126 can provide greater fluid inflow when the micro-integrated piezoelectric pump device is in operation, and can provide a buffering effect at the connection between the flow channels 124 and the outside, achieving smoother fluid inflow and outflow, avoiding too rapid fluid flow, and also preserving the corner portions around the flow channel plate for alignment and assembly with other elements above and below during installation. The flow channel plate 120 can be made of stainless steel or carbon fiber composite material.

[0101] Referring to Fig. 4, in the present embodiment, the resonant plate 130 located below the flow channel plate 120 has a center hole 132 passing through it, and the center hole 132 is connected to the center through hole 122. Further, the center hole 132 is coaxial with the center through hole 122, and the diameter of the center hole 132 is smaller than the diameter of the center through hole 122, so as to ensure that the fluid return from the pump body 100 to the outside is small enough when the micro-integrated piezoelectric pump device is in operation, forming a one-way transport of fluid into the pump body 100. For example but not limited to, the diameter of the center through hole 122 is set to be in the range of 4.5mm to 6.0mm and is calculated and optimized according to the different resonant frequencies required, and correspondingly, the diameter of the center hole 132 is set to be in the range of 0.5mm to 1.2mm. Further, the resonant plate 130 also has relief grooves 134 around the center hole 132, the positions of the relief grooves 134 correspond to the vibration positions of the vibrator 140 support, so as to avoid the flow channel plate 120 support from fluctuating vibration when the vibrator 140 vibrates, reduce the impact and collision between elements, avoid element failure caused by vibration, and improve the overall durability of the micro-integrated piezoelectric pump device.

[0102] As shown in FIGS. 5-7, in this embodiment, the resonant plate 130 is below a combination of the vibrator 140 and the outer frame 170. The vibrator 140 includes the elastic plate 150 and the piezoelectric unit 160. The outer frame 170 is used to support the elastic plate 150, which is embedded into the separately manufactured outer frame 170 with a gap between them. The elastic plate 150 is opposite to the resonant plate 130, and the piezoelectric unit 160 is located on the side of the elastic plate 150 opposite to the resonant plate 130 and close to the middle, so that the elastic plate 150 vibrates. When the piezoelectric unit 160 does not vibrate, the resonant plate 130 is spaced apart from the elastic plate 150, so that the vibration cavity 102 is formed between them, and the pump cavity 104 is formed below the elastic plate 150 together with the pump body 100; when the piezoelectric unit 160 vibrates, the fluid flows into the vibration cavity 102 through the central hole 132, and then flows into the pump cavity 104 from the gap between the vibrator 140 and the outer frame 170. In assembly, the elastic plate 150 and the outer frame 170 can also be embedded at the same time using the bonding method, so that they are more firmly combined and can withstand vibration for a longer time without loosening. In this embodiment, the outer frame 170 has a square opening 172 in the middle, and a mounting groove 177 is formed on the inner side facing the square opening 172 for mounting the elastic plate 150. The elastic plate 150 can be integrally formed, for example, cut from a carbon composite sheet. The outer frame 170 can be made of stainless steel, carbon fiber composite material, etc.

[0103] As shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, the elastic plate 150 includes a reinforcing portion 152 and a support frame 154. The reinforcing portion 152 is a circular sheet structure, and a protrusion (not labeled) is arranged near the center of the side surface of the resonant plate 130, so that when the elastic plate 150 protrudes towards the resonant plate 130, the reinforcing portion 152 is closer to the center hole 132. The piezoelectric element 160 can be fixed to the side surface of the reinforcing portion 152 away from the resonant plate 130 by adhesion or welding, between the reinforcing portion 152 and the electrode plate 190. The support frame 154 includes a side beam 155 and a diagonal beam 156, the diagonal beam 156 is embedded on the outer frame 170 around the outside of the reinforcing portion 152, and the side beam 155 is connected between two adjacent diagonal beams 156 and connected with the reinforcing portion 152. The avoidance slot 134 is arranged opposite to the side beam 155. With the ups and downs of the reinforcing portion 152, the side beam 155 rises and falls relative to the avoidance slot 134, and in the above structure, the diagonal beam 156 and the side beam 155 uniformly support the reinforcing portion 152, so that the reinforcing portion 152 remains flat and is not prone to fluid pumping capacity decline caused by local deformation; in addition, the diagonal beam 156 can adjust the vibration frequency of the straight beam, the closer the diagonal beam 156 is to the reinforcing portion 152, the higher the vibration frequency of the reinforcing portion 152 during work; the farther the diagonal beam 156 is from the reinforcing portion 152, the lower the vibration frequency of the reinforcing portion 152 during work. Adjusting the relative position between the diagonal beam 156 and the reinforcing portion 152 can adjust the vibration frequency of the reinforcing portion 152 according to the required function, even the vibration frequency is higher than 20KHz, and when working in the ultrasonic frequency band, it will not produce too high vibration frequency, too high frequency, for example, more than 30KHz, will cause the flow to decrease, the heat dissipation of the pump body to increase, and fatigue failure is easy to occur.

[0104] In the present embodiment, the support frame 154 comprises four side beams 155 and four inclined support beams 156 which are alternately connected to each other to form the octagonal structure, wherein two adjacent side beams 155 are arranged on the outer periphery of the reinforcing portion 152 with their extending directions perpendicular to each other, and the middle part of the extending direction is connected to the reinforcing portion 152, and each inclined support beam 156 is connected between two adjacent side beams 155 and extends in a direction which is not parallel to the extending direction of the adjacent side beam 155. Further, two adjacent inclined support beams 156 are symmetrically arranged along a straight line passing through the center of the reinforcing portion 152. Further, the side beam 155 is narrower than the inclined support beam 156, and the structure of the side beam 155 and the inclined support beam 156 with different widths can provide a larger elastic deformation range. Further, there is a gap between the side beam 155 and the reinforcing portion 152, and the support frame 154 further comprises an inner beam 158 extending radially inward from the side beam 155 to the reinforcing portion 152, which is connected to the reinforcing portion 152 through the inner beam 158 to provide better vibration performance. Further, four radially outward extending inner beams 158 are uniformly arranged around the reinforcing portion 152, and four side beams 155 with equal length are arranged at the outer ends of the four inner beams 158, wherein the adjacent side beams 155 are perpendicular to each other.

[0105] The adjacent side beams 155 are connected by the inclined support beam 156, and the inclined support beam 156 extends to both ends of the outer side edge of the side beam 155 and is convexly provided with a mounting protrusion 157 on the side surface facing away from the vibrator 140, which is matched with the mounting groove 177 of the outer frame 170 to be embedded together during installation. The above structure makes the elastic plate 150 only need a suitable thickness of material (such as 0.25mm to 0.3mm) to be processed by etching or laser processing in one layer of material through different steps or hollowing processing, and the entire elastic plate 150 has good overall flatness and is not easy to produce local deformation to cause the yield of the pump to decrease; the mounting protrusion 157 is arranged at the two inclined angles of the ends of the inclined support beam 156, so that the inclined support beam 156 forms a stepped structure towards the side surface of the outer frame 170, which is matched with the mounting groove 177 of the outer frame 170 with the same inclined angle shape, and the shape makes the vibrator 140 and the outer frame 170 more stable and not easy to loosen.

[0106] As shown in FIG. 7, after the elastic plate 150 is assembled with the outer frame 170, the side beams 155 are parallel to the side edges of the square openings 172 of the outer frame 170, and the diagonal beams 156 are cut at the four corners of the square openings 172 of the outer frame 170, thereby forming corner hollows 182 at the four corners. The support frames 154 and the reinforcing portions 152 of the elastic plate 150 form a plurality of internal hollows 180. The support frames 154 can be arranged such that the width of one side beam 155 from the outer side to the outer side of another side beam 155 parallel thereto is slightly narrower than the corresponding width of the square opening 172 of the outer frame 170, thereby forming an elongated side hollow 184 between the adjacent side beams 155 and the side edges of the outer frame 170. As shown in FIG. 7, after the elastic plate 150 is assembled with the outer frame 170, the corner hollows 182 are formed between the support frames 154 of the elastic plate 150 and the outer frame 170 at the four corners, and the side hollows 184 are formed between the side beams 155 and the outer frame 170. The corner hollows 182 and the side hollows 184 are a plurality of gaps formed between the elastic plate 150 and the outer frame 170 and spaced apart from each other. Thus, in the combination of the assembled vibrator 140 and the outer frame 170, a plurality of internal hollows 180, corner hollows 182, and side hollows 184 are spaced apart from each other, so that the fluid can flow quickly through the hollow spaces during operation, thereby reducing the flow resistance. Further, the thickness of the outer frame 170 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the vibrator 140 formed by stacking the elastic plate 150 and the piezoelectric element 160. Optionally, the thickness of the outer frame 170 can range from 0.35 mm to 0.5 mm, and the thickness of the vibrator 140 can range from 0.35 mm to 0.45 mm. The size settings can ensure that sufficient vibration space is provided while ensuring that the overall size of the micro-integrated piezoelectric pump device meets the requirements of various ultra-thin applications. The elastic plate 150 with the above structure can provide excellent vibration performance for the pump body 100 of the micro-integrated piezoelectric pump device, and the structure allows the elastic plate 150 to be integrally cut on a single piece of material, facilitating manufacturing, saving raw materials, and reducing manufacturing costs. The embedded assembly of the elastic plate 150 and the outer frame 170 is conducive to improving the manufacturing error tolerance of the elastic plate 150, facilitating assembly, and also has excellent adaptability. The elastic plate 150 can be assembled with outer frames having different external shapes, thereby being applicable to different pump bodies and pump devices, and thus being applicable to various different application products. The elastic plate 150 can be made of fiber-reinforced composite material. The vibrator 140 includes the above-mentioned substantially linear support frames 154, which can fully utilize the enhanced modulus of the fiber direction of the fiber-reinforced composite material, thereby providing better vibration performance and durability. The elastic plate 150 and the outer frame 170 can be made of different materials and then embedded and bonded or bonded, which is conducive to meeting the requirements of ultra-thin and low heat generation of the vibrator structure, and also enables the outer frame 170 to meet the requirements of wafer dicing machines.For example, the elastic plate 150 can be made of stainless steel or carbon fiber composite material, and the outer frame 170 can be made of glass fiber or carbon fiber composite material, ceramic, stainless steel, etc., wherein the glass fiber and ceramic material used can be subjected to a metallization process.

[0107] As shown in Fig. 8, the electrode plate 190 is located below the vibrator 140 and has a surrounding frame 192 and a cantilever 194 extending inwardly from the surrounding frame 192. The surrounding frame 192 can include two insulating strips 195 separating the surrounding frame 192 into a surrounding frame part 196 and a surrounding frame part 198 which are insulated from each other, wherein the surrounding frame part 196 is electrically connected to the outer frame 170, the surrounding frame part 198 is insulated from the outer frame 170, and the cantilever 194 extends inwardly from the surrounding frame part 198. The electrode plate 190 is made of a conductive metal material, such as copper. During operation of the pump body 100, the cantilever 194 is connected to the side of the piezoelectric element 160 away from the reinforcing part 152 for power supply. The surrounding frame part 196 is connected to the outer frame 170 by conductive glue, and since the outer frame 170 and the elastic plate 150 are good conductors, the piezoelectric element 160 is supplied with power on the side facing the reinforcing part 152 through the surrounding frame part 196, the conductive glue, the outer frame 170, and the elastic plate 150. Thus, low impedance power supply is achieved for the two electrode surfaces of the piezoelectric element, and power loss is reduced.

[0108] The fixing method of the electrode plate 190 and the outer frame 170 of the vibrator 140 is that the surrounding frame part 196 of the electrode plate 190 is bonded or keyed to the outer frame 170 by conductive glue, and the surrounding frame part 198 is bonded or keyed to the outer frame 170 by insulating glue. The cantilever 194 and the piezoelectric element 160 are connected by tin soldering or silver paste high-temperature curing.

[0109] Further, in the assembled pump body 100, the central through hole 122 of the flow channel plate 120, the central hole 132 of the resonant plate 130, the reinforcing part 152 of the elastic plate 150, and the piezoelectric element 160 are coaxial, thereby providing excellent fluid flow performance and oscillation effect.

[0110] The working process of the pump body 100 of the present embodiment will be described in detail below with reference to Figs. 9 to 11. When the pump body 100 of the present embodiment is in operation, the piezoelectric element 160 is powered to generate radial expansion and contraction movement, driving the vibrator 140 to vibrate and achieving fluid pumping.

[0111] Specifically, as shown in Fig. 9, the pump body 100 is in a first working state, the vibrator 140 is not powered, and the piezoelectric element 160 is in a flat and undeformed state.

[0112] As shown in Fig. 10, the pump body 100 is in the second working state. During the vibration of the vibrator 140, when the piezoelectric element 160 is stretched, the reinforcing portion 152 of the vibrator 140 is depressed to expand the vibration cavity 102; at the same time, the support frame 154 is bent upward to form a high pressure area above it; at this time, the space of the expanded vibration cavity 102 above the reinforcing portion 152 forms a low pressure; so that the fluid flows from the outside of the pump body 100 into the expanded vibration cavity 102 through the flow channel 124 and the center through hole 122 of the flow channel plate 120, and the center hole 132 of the resonant plate 130, realizing the suction of the fluid.

[0113] As shown in Fig. 11, the pump body 100 is in the third working state. During the vibration of the vibrator 140, when the piezoelectric element 160 is contracted, the reinforcing portion 152 of the vibrator 140 is convex to narrow the vibration cavity 102 to form a high pressure area; at the same time, the support frame 154 area is depressed above it to form a low pressure area; at this time, since the center position above the reinforcing portion 152 is a high pressure area with large flow resistance, and the surrounding is a low pressure area with small flow resistance, as shown by the arrows in Fig. 11, the fluid flows from the high pressure area at the center position to the surrounding low pressure area, and part of the fluid flows downward from the hollow part of the support frame 154; due to the size of the above-mentioned center hole 132 and center through hole 122, only a small amount of fluid is discharged from the vibration cavity 102 to the outside of the pump body 100 through the center hole 132, the center through hole 122 and the flow channel 124. This makes the amount of fluid flowing out when the piezoelectric element 160 vibrates upward much less than the amount of fluid sucked in when the piezoelectric element 160 vibrates downward, realizing the unidirectional flow of fluid. When the pressure in the cavity of the pump body 100 increases to a certain pressure value, the amount of fluid flowing from the pump cavity 104 below the vibrator 140 to the vibration cavity 102 above the vibrator 140 through the multiple hollow structures of the vibrator 140 when the piezoelectric element 160 vibrates downward is roughly equal to the amount of fluid flowing from the vibration cavity 102 to the pump cavity 104 through the multiple hollow structures of the vibrator 140 when the piezoelectric element 160 vibrates upward, reaching dynamic balance. At this time, the micro integrated piezoelectric pump device reaches the zero flow back pressure state, and the fluid in it only oscillates and does not form unidirectional flow.

[0114] The valve body 200 of the micro integrated piezoelectric pump device of the embodiment will be described in detail below with reference to Figs. 12 to 20.

[0115] As shown in Fig. 12, the valve body 200 of the present embodiment comprises, from top to bottom, a first fixed layer 210, an elastic film layer 220, a second fixed layer 230, and a side wall portion 240 for fixing the first fixed layer 210, the elastic film layer 220, and the second fixed layer 230. The bottom surface of the side wall portion 240 is fixed with a bottom substrate 300 as a bottom plate. The elastic film layer 220 and the second fixed layer 230 have the same size, and the length and width of the first fixed layer 210 are greater than those of the elastic film layer 220 and the second fixed layer 230, so that the first fixed layer 210 can cover the elastic film layer 220 and the second fixed layer 230. The side wall portion 240 and the bottom substrate 300 have the same outer peripheral size and shape, and form a uniform outer shape of the valve body 200 after assembly. In addition, the pump body 100 and the valve body 200 can have the same outer peripheral shape and size, so that the assembled micro-integrated piezoelectric pump device has a uniform outer shape. The thickness of the side wall portion 240 is greater than the total thickness of the first fixed layer 210, the elastic film layer 220, and the second fixed layer 230, so as to form a space for accommodating the chip and the device on the bottom substrate 300, accommodating the deformation of the elastic film layer 220, and providing fluid flow. The first fixed layer 210, the elastic film layer 220, the second fixed layer 230, and the side wall portion 240 of the valve body 200 together form a normally closed valve and a normally open valve.

[0116] Referring to Fig. 13, the first fixed layer 210 is formed with a normally closed hole 212 and a first relief opening 214, and the size of the first relief opening 214 is greater than that of the normally closed hole 212. The first relief opening 214 is used to provide a relief space for accommodating the upward deformation of the elastic film layer 220 when the elastic film layer 220 deforms upward.

[0117] As shown in FIG. 14, the first fixed layer 210 is below the elastic film layer 220. The elastic film layer 220 is made of material with good elasticity, such as rubber. The elastic film layer 220 is formed with a transmission hole 222 corresponding to the normally closed hole 212 of the first fixed layer 210. When no external force is applied, the elastic film layer 220 covers the normally closed hole 212 and the first escape opening 214. The transmission hole 222 can be set as a plurality of independent fan-shaped small holes, which are circumferentially arranged outside the normally closed hole 212 to form a circular area. The center of the circular area is a solid part and is opposite to the normally closed hole 212 of the first fixed layer 210. This setting allows the solid part to block the normally closed hole 212 when the elastic film layer 220 is in a flat state or an upward deformation state. When the elastic film layer 220 is in a downward deformation state, the solid part of the elastic film layer 220 deforms downward to open the normally closed hole 212, and the normally closed hole 212 can communicate with the transmission hole 222. In the embodiment, the elastic film layer 220 is integrally made of a single piece of elastic film material. In other embodiments, the elastic film layer 220 is divided into two pieces of elastic film pieces covering the normally closed hole 212 and the first escape opening 214, respectively.

[0118] As shown in FIG. 15, the elastic film layer 220 is below the second fixed layer 230 for supporting the elastic film layer 220 and providing space for the downward movement of the elastic film layer 220. The second fixed layer 230 is formed with a transmission opening 232 corresponding to the transmission hole 222 of the elastic film layer 220, and a second escape opening 234 corresponding to the first escape opening 214 of the first fixed layer 210. The transmission opening 232 can be circular and has a size larger than the circular area surrounded by the transmission hole 222 and the normally closed hole 212, for providing an escape space for the downward deformation of the elastic film layer 220 and a fluid communication path from the normally closed hole 212 via the transmission hole 222 and the transmission opening 232 of the downwardly deformed elastic film layer 220. In the embodiment, the axis of the transmission opening 232 extends vertically to the side of the second fixed layer 230. The second escape opening 234 can have the same size as the first escape opening 214 of the first fixed layer 210, and is located corresponding to the first escape opening 214 of the first fixed layer 210, for providing an escape space for the downward deformation of the elastic film layer 220. Further, the normally closed hole 212 is coaxial with the transmission opening 232 to increase the difference in bending amount between the first fixed layer 210 and the elastic film layer 220 when they are bent downward.

[0119] Referring to FIG. 16, in the present embodiment, the side wall portion 240 has a multi-step structure with a hollow opening enclosed by four side walls, thereby forming a cavity for containing fluid, and the interior of the pump body 100 is in communication with or separated from the cavity of the side wall portion 240 with the movement of the piezoelectric element 160. The opening of the side wall portion 240 is in communication with the upper and lower sides to facilitate the installation of the first fixed layer 210, the elastic film layer 220, and the second fixed layer 230. The multi-step structure includes, from top to bottom, a first step wall 242 forming a first opening size, a second step wall 244 forming a second opening size, and a third step wall 246 forming a third opening size, with the first, second, and third opening sizes decreasing in turn. The third step wall 246 further includes a boss 248 located in the opening of the side wall portion 240 and extending inward from a side inner wall, and a boss transmission hole 249 formed in the boss 248 and extending downward from the upper surface of the boss 248, the boss transmission hole 249 serving as a pressure relief hole for discharging part of the fluid in the pump cavity 104 and reducing the pressure in the pump cavity 104 after the pump body 100 stops working. In the up-down direction, the upper surface of the boss 248 is lower than the top surface of the third step wall 246. Further, the boss transmission hole 249 can extend downward from the upper surface of the boss 248 and pass through the boss 248. The side wall portion 240 is formed with a side wall outlet 241 from the boss transmission hole 249 to the outside of the side wall portion 240 on the side wall where the boss 248 is located, the extension direction of the side wall outlet 241 being perpendicular to the extension direction of the boss transmission hole 249, and one end of the side wall outlet 241 being in communication with the outside of the side wall and the other end being in communication with the boss transmission hole 249. It is shown in the figure that the side wall outlet 241 is located at the bottom of the side wall portion 240. It should be understood that the side wall outlet 241 can be arranged at other suitable positions of the side wall portion according to requirements. The first opening size of the first step wall 242 matches the first fixed layer 210, and the second opening size of the second step wall 244 matches the elastic film layer 220 and the second fixed layer 230. When the first fixed layer 210, the elastic film layer 220, and the second fixed layer 230 are assembled to the side wall portion 240, the first fixed layer 210 is contained in the first opening enclosed by the first step wall 242 and is supported by the top surface of the second step wall 244, and the elastic film layer 220 and the second fixed layer 230 are contained in the second opening enclosed by the second step wall 244 and are supported by the top surface of the third step wall 246. The boss transmission hole 249 of the boss 248 corresponds to the position of the second relief opening 234. Thus, the boss 248 of the side wall portion 240 cooperates with the elastic film layer 220 and the first fixed layer 210 and the second fixed layer 230 to block the boss transmission hole 249 when the elastic film layer 220 is in a downward deformed state, and to allow the boss transmission hole 249 to be in communication with the space in the valve body 200 when the elastic film layer 220 is in a flat state or an upward deformed state. The side wall portion 240 of the valve body 200 is made of an insulating material.

[0120] After assembly, the normally closed hole 212 of the first fixed layer 210 and the transmission hole 222 of the elastic film layer 220 together form a normally closed valve. When the elastic film layer 220 is in an undeformed flat state, the normally closed hole 212 is closed by the elastic film layer 220, and the passage is closed. The first relief opening 214 of the first fixed layer 210 and the boss transmission hole 249 of the boss 248 together form a normally open valve. When the elastic film layer 220 is in an undeformed flat state, there is a gap between the elastic film layer 220 and the boss 248, and the boss transmission hole 249 is not covered by the elastic film layer 220, so the passage from the inside of the valve body 200 to the outside is open.

[0121] In addition, with continuous reference to FIG. 16, two spaced-apart through holes 250 can be formed in the side wall portion 240, and the through holes 250 are filled with conductive material. The power supply unit 350 of the bottom substrate 300 is in electrical communication with the electrode plate 190 of the pump body 100 through the through holes 250, so as to supply power to the piezoelectric element 160 of the pump body 100 to control the vibration action. The two through holes 250 are respectively connected to and in electrical communication with the frame one portion 196 and the frame two portion 198 of the electrode plate 190, and are respectively in electrical communication with the frame body 170 and the cantilever 194, so as to supply power to the piezoelectric element 160 of the vibrator 140 and avoid short circuit. The through holes 250 of the valve body 200 can effectively reduce the number of elements, realize a compact, efficient and reliable power supply and control mode, and reduce the structure size, so that the micro integrated piezoelectric pump device can be applied to more application scenarios. The conductive material can be, for example but not limited to, copper material, silver material, etc. Compared with the traditional pad power supply mode, the power supply mode of the bottom substrate 300 to the piezoelectric element 160 through the through holes 250, the frame one portion 196 and the frame two portion 198 of the electrode plate 190, the cantilever 194, the frame body 170 and the elastic plate 150 not only improves the integration of the piezoelectric pump device, but also provides sufficient elasticity, so that even if the elastic plate 150 moves up and down, the electrical connection can still be maintained well, and the stability of power supply is improved. In addition, since the sheet-shaped frame one portion 196 and the frame two portion 198 are located in the same layer in the up-down direction, the connection mode of connecting the frame one portion 196 and the frame two portion 198 to the upper and lower sides of the piezoelectric element 160 respectively through the through holes 250 connected to the mutually insulated frame one portion 196 and the frame two portion 198 can reduce the space volume of the micro integrated piezoelectric pump device and improve the integration. Moreover, only the through holes 250 are provided in the side wall portion 240, and then the sheet-shaped frame one portion 196 and the frame two portion 198 are connected to the through holes 250, which not only increases the contact area and improves the stability of electrical connection, but also eliminates the step of aligning the electrode plate 190 with the through holes 250 when the electrode plate 190 is mounted to the side wall portion 240, thereby reducing the assembly difficulty.

[0122] As shown in FIG. 17, in the present embodiment, the valve body 200 takes the bottom substrate 300 as its bottom plate. The bottom substrate 300 is consistent with the outer shape and size of the sidewall part 240, and is fixedly connected with the sidewall part 240 below. The bottom substrate 300 includes a substrate hole 310, a control unit 320, and a power supply unit 350 corresponding to and electrically connected with the conductive through hole 250 in the sidewall part 240; the substrate hole 310 is arranged at the center of the bottom substrate 300 facing the pump cavity 104, for fluid to enter and exit the valve body 200 without the need for additional connecting pipelines. The control unit 320 includes a chip arranged on the bottom substrate 300, a driving device, and an input and output port for electrical connection and communication with the outside. The components arranged on the bottom substrate 300 can be arranged away from the position of the substrate hole 310 and the boss 248 of the sidewall part 240, to facilitate assembly. The bottom substrate 300 is made of a circuit layer and an insulating layer.

[0123] The working process of the valve body 200 of the present embodiment is described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 18-20.

[0124] As shown in FIG. 18, the valve body 200 according to the embodiment of the present application is in the first working state, in which the inner and outer pressures are consistent, the elastic film layer 220 is in a flat and undeformed state, the normally closed one-way valve is closed, i.e., the normally closed hole 212 and the first relief opening 214 of the first fixed layer 210 are blocked by the elastic film layer 220; the normally open one-way valve is open, i.e., the gap between the convex transmission hole 249 and the flat elastic film layer 220 is not blocked, allowing fluid to flow.

[0125] As shown in Fig. 19, the valve body 200 provided by the embodiment of the present application is in the second working state, when the pump body 100 above the valve body 200 works, the pressure P2 above the valve body 200 is higher than the pressure P1 in the valve body 200, and acts on the first fixed layer 210 and the elastic film layer 220 through the normally closed hole 212, the first fixed layer 210 and the elastic film layer 220 are deformed downward, because the second fixed layer 230 stops the elastic film layer 220 and the normally closed hole 212 is close to the center of the transmission opening 232, the first fixed layer 210 and the elastic film layer 220 are different in the degree of bending in the transmission opening 232, the first fixed layer 210 and the elastic film layer 220 are separated at the corresponding position of the transmission opening 232, the normally closed check valve is opened, that is, the downward deformed elastic film layer 220 leaves the normally closed hole 212 of the first fixed layer 210, so that the normally closed hole 212 communicates with the inside of the valve body 200 through the transmission hole 222 of the elastic film layer 220, as shown by the arrow, the fluid enters the inside of the valve body 200 from above through the normally closed hole 212 and the transmission hole 222, and flows out from the substrate hole 310 of the bottom substrate 300; at the same time, the normally open check valve is closed, that is, the downward deformed elastic film layer 220 blocks the boss transmission hole 249 on the boss 248, and the fluid cannot flow through it.

[0126] As shown in Fig. 20, the valve body 200 provided by the embodiment of the present application is in the third working state, when the pump body 100 stops working, the pressure P1 in the valve body 200 is higher than the pressure P2 above the valve body 200, the elastic film layer 220 is deformed upward, the normally closed check valve is closed, that is, the upward deformed elastic film layer 220 blocks the normally closed hole 212 of the first fixed layer 210, and the fluid cannot flow through it; at the same time, the normally open check valve is opened, that is, the upward deformed elastic film layer 220 leaves the boss transmission hole 249 on the boss 248, as shown by the arrow, the fluid enters the inside of the valve body 200 from below through the substrate hole 310 in the center of the bottom substrate 300, passes through the boss transmission hole 249, and then is discharged out of the valve body 200 through the side wall outlet 241.

[0127] The following describes the assembly and fixation of the pump body 100 and the valve body 200. The pump body 100 and the valve body 200 are assembled by fixing the bottom surface of the electrode plate 190 at the bottom of the pump body 100 to the top surface of the side wall portion 240 of the valve body 200. The bottom surface of the electrode plate 190 at the bottom of the pump body 100 and the top surface of the side wall portion 240 of the valve body 200 can be fixed by using a flexible insulating adhesive. When fixed, the flexible adhesive avoids the conductive body of the conductive through hole 250 of the side wall portion 240 of the valve body 200, so that the conductive body of the conductive through hole 250 is in contact with and electrically connected to the frame one portion 196 and the frame two portion 198 of the electrode plate 190, respectively, to achieve the power supply and control of the piezoelectric element 160 in the pump body 100 from the bottom substrate 300. The power supply circuit of the piezoelectric element 160 in the pump body 100 from the bottom substrate 300 is as follows: from one power supply unit 350 of the bottom substrate 300, via one conductive through hole 250 in the side wall portion 240, the frame one portion 196 of the electrode plate 190 electrically connected to the conductive through hole 250, the outer frame 170 above the frame one portion 196, the elastic plate 150 fitted with the outer frame 170, and further electrically connected to the upper surface of the piezoelectric element 160; from another power supply unit 350 of the bottom substrate 300, via another conductive through hole 250 in the side wall portion 240, the frame two portion 198 of the electrode plate 190 electrically connected to the conductive through hole 250, the cantilever 194 extending from the frame two portion 198, and further electrically connected to the lower surface of the piezoelectric element 160. Thus, the power supply circuit of the piezoelectric element 160 is formed.

[0128] In addition, the pump body 100 and the valve body 200, as well as the layers of the pump body 100 and the valve body 200, can be combined by making microstructures on a wafer and then using eutectic bonding or resin bonding. This can quickly complete the bonding of materials at a relatively low temperature, which helps to protect the integrity of the device, avoid damage to the device caused by high temperature, provide higher yield, better consistency, and facilitate rapid mass production.

[0129] According to the valve body 200 provided in the embodiment, the chip and the driving device are integrated on the PCB bottom plate by using the integrated design of microelectronics and micromechanics. The internal structure is reasonably distributed, the volume of the piezoelectric pump body is reduced, and the overall mechanical and electronic area and volume are greatly reduced. The integrated algorithm IC, i.e., the chip, is integrated on the PCB bottom plate, which greatly reduces the development cycle of the downstream application and improves the spatial benefit of the downstream user. The circuit path is provided on the side wall portion to supply power to the pump body 100 and communicate, which not only reduces the volume and improves the space utilization rate, but also reduces external interference and improves the stability and reliability of the system.

The above-mentioned multi-layered elements of the pump body 1100 have a uniform outer periphery size and a circular outer periphery shape, and form the pump body 1100 with a circular outer periphery after assembly. The pump body 1100 of the present embodiment has substantially the same internal structure as the pump body 100 of the first embodiment, except that the outer periphery shape of the multi-layered elements is circular, and the rest of the structure will not be described here again. Since the square opening structure in the middle of the outer frame 1170 is the same as the square opening in the middle of the outer frame 170 of the first embodiment, the resonator 140 composed of the elastic plate 150 and the piezoelectric element 160 of the first embodiment can be matched therewith.

[0133] The valve body 1200 of the present embodiment comprises, from top to bottom, a first fixed layer 1210, an elastic film layer 1220, a second fixed layer 1230 and a side wall portion 1240, and the side wall portion 1240 is used to fixedly mount the above-mentioned first fixed layer 1210, elastic film layer 1220 and second fixed layer 1230; the bottom substrate 1300 is fixed to the bottom surface of the side wall portion 1240. The side wall portion 1240 and the bottom substrate 1300 have a uniform outer periphery size and a circular outer periphery shape, and form the valve body 1200 with a circular outer periphery after assembly, and match the above-mentioned pump body 1100. Although the outer periphery shape of the side wall portion 1240 of the valve body 1200 and the bottom substrate 1300 is circular, the internal structure of the valve body 1200 is the same as that of the pump body 100 of the first embodiment, and the first fixed layer, the elastic film layer and the second fixed layer of the valve body 1200 are the same as those of the first embodiment, and will not be described here again.

[0136] As shown in FIGS. 22-24, a micro-integrated piezoelectric pump device according to embodiment 3 of the present application comprises a pump body 2100, a valve body 2200 and a bottom substrate 2300. The valve body 2200 has substantially the same structure as the valve body 200 of embodiment 1. The pump body 2100 comprises, from top to bottom, a top heat sink plate 2110, a flow channel plate 2120, a resonant plate, an outer frame and an electrode plate. The resonant plate, the vibrator, the outer frame and the electrode plate of the pump body 2100 have the same structure as the resonant plate 130, the vibrator 140, the outer frame 170 and the electrode plate 190 of embodiment 1. The difference is that, as shown in FIG. 23, the top heat sink plate 2110 of embodiment 3 has a plurality of heat sink holes 2112 formed therein, which extend through the heat sink plate 2110 in the up-down direction. As shown in FIG. 24, the flow channel plate 2120 of embodiment 3 has a central through hole 2122 and a plurality of flow channels 2124 which communicate with the central through hole 2122. The plurality of flow channels 2124 are evenly distributed around the central through hole 2122, and each flow channel 2124 extends radially outward from the central through hole 2122 and communicates with the heat sink hole 2112 formed in the top heat sink plate 2110, thereby forming a passage for fluid to enter the pump body 2100. The central through hole 2122 of the flow channel plate 2120 communicates with the central hole of the resonant plate below. The micro-integrated piezoelectric pump device of the present embodiment has a simple processing procedure and low manufacturing cost.

[0137] Embodiment 4

[0138] As shown in FIGS. 25 and 26, a micro-integrated piezoelectric pump device according to embodiment 4 of the present application comprises a pump body 3100, a valve body 3200 and a bottom substrate 3300. The structure of the micro-integrated piezoelectric pump device is substantially the same as that of embodiment 1, the pump body 3100, the valve body 3200 and the bottom substrate 3300 have the same outer peripheral size and shape, and the micro-integrated piezoelectric pump device has a rectangular outer shape when projected in the up-down direction. The difference is that:

[0139] The pump body 3100 comprises, from top to bottom, a top heat sink plate 3110, a flow channel plate 3120, a resonant plate, a vibrator 3140, an outer frame in which the vibrator 3140 is embedded, a spacer layer 3410, an electrode plate 3190 and a cushion layer 3400. The vibrator 3140 can be integrally formed with the outer frame, or can be separately provided from the outer frame.

[0140] As shown in FIG. 26, the top heat sink plate 3110 of embodiment 4 has a plurality of heat sink holes 3112 formed therein, which extend through the top heat sink plate 3110 in the up-down direction.

[0141] As shown in Fig. 27, the flow channel plate 3120 has a central through hole 3122, a plurality of flow channels 3124 communicating with the central through hole 3122, and a plurality of strip holes 3126. The plurality of flow channels 3124 are evenly distributed around the central through hole 3122 in a circumferential direction, extend radially along the central through hole 3122, and communicate with the central through hole 3122. Each flow channel 3124 communicates with at least one heat sink hole 3112. Each strip hole 3126 penetrates the flow channel plate 3120 and is close to an edge of the flow channel plate 3120. The extension direction of each strip hole 3126 is parallel to the extension direction of the edge of the flow channel plate 3120 adjacent to the strip hole 3126 and opposite to the avoiding slot on the resonant plate, so as to surround the central through hole 3122 and the flow channels 3124 therein. Compared with the flow channel plate of the embodiment 3, the added strip holes 3126 make the flow channel plate 3120 have a certain elasticity, so that the flow channel plate 3120 can vibrate with the vibrator 3140 in a small amplitude without hindering the vibration of the vibrator 3140, thereby increasing the amplitude of the vibrator 3140.

[0142] The vibrator 3140 includes an elastic plate 3150 and a piezoelectric element. One side of the elastic plate 3150 faces the resonant plate, and the piezoelectric element is located on the side of the elastic plate 3150 opposite to the resonant plate and close to the center of the elastic plate 3150. The elastic plate 3150 includes a reinforcing portion and a support frame 3154 for supporting the reinforcing portion. The support frame 3154 is connected between the reinforcing portion and the outer frame and elastically deforms with the undulation of the elastic plate 3150. As shown in Fig. 28, the support frame 3154 includes a diagonal bracing beam 3156, a side beam 3155, and an inner beam 3158. In a projection in the up-down direction, the diagonal bracing beam 3156 is obliquely connected between the inner sides of two adjacent frame edges of the outer frame, and the inner beam 3158 is connected to the outer side of the elastic plate 3150 in a radial direction of the elastic plate 3150. The side beam 3155 has two ends connected to the diagonal bracing beam 3156 and the inner beam 3158, respectively, and extends in a direction parallel to the adjacent frame edge of the outer frame. The same diagonal bracing beam 3156 has two ends extending in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the side beam 3155 and passing through the center of the elastic plate 3150. In this embodiment, the number of the diagonal bracing beams 3156 is four, which are distributed at the four corners of the outer frame. The number of the side beams 3155 and the inner beams 3158 is eight.

[0143] The structure of the vibrator 3140 can provide better stability and consistency, improve the vibration frequency, and maintain the same vibration effect at a lower amplitude, thereby reducing the damage to the piezoelectric element, especially for the piezoelectric element made of lead zirconate titanate ceramic (PZT ceramic). The structure can greatly improve the stability and reliability of the piezoelectric element. Further, the elastic plate 3150 and the outer frame can be processed by etching or laser processing to form an integral structure, thereby further improving the stability and consistency. As shown in FIG. 29, the spacer layer 3400 is made of a conductive material and is located between the outer frame and the electrode plate 3190 to increase the distance between the vibrator 3140 and the electrode plate 3190. By providing the spacer layer 3400, the vibration space of the vibrator 3140 can be increased, and the contact area between the electrode plate 3190 and the outer frame can be ensured, thereby ensuring the stability of the power supply to the upper side of the piezoelectric element 3160.

[0144] As shown in FIG. 30, the electrode plate 3190 has a frame and a cantilever 3194 extending inward from the frame. The cantilever 3194 includes an extension 3194A, a connecting portion 3194B, a tooth portion 3194C, and a separation groove 3194D. The extension 3194A extends from the frame to the inside of the pump cavity 104. The connecting portion 3194B is located at the end of the extension 3194A away from the frame and is used for electrical connection with the side of the piezoelectric element 3160 away from the elastic plate 3150. In a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the extension 3194A, the tooth portion 3194C is located on the opposite sides of the connecting portion 3194B and is arranged along the extension direction of the extension 3194A. The separation groove 3194D is located between the two tooth portions 3194C and extends from the connecting portion 3194B along the extension direction of the extension 3194A and communicates with the pump cavity 104. In this embodiment, the tooth portion 3194C is formed by arranging a plurality of semicircles with a diameter of 0.4 mm along the extension direction of the extension 3194A. In a direction in which one side of the tooth portion 3194C points to the other side of the tooth portion 3194C, the width of the separation groove 3194D is equal to the diameter of the tooth portion 3194C. This structure can maximize the specific surface area under the premise of not being ablated by laser, thereby improving the adhesion and reliability of the cantilever 3194 to the piezoelectric element 3160 and improving the stability of the electrical connection. Further, in a direction in which one side of the tooth portion 3194C points to the other side of the tooth portion 3194C, the width of the connecting portion 3194B at the end away from the extension 3194A is greater than the width of the connecting portion 3194B at the end close to the extension 3194A, and chamfers are provided on the opposite sides of the separation groove 3194D away from the extension 3194A, thereby avoiding breakage due to stress concentration and vibration of the cantilever 3194 with the elastic plate 3150.

[0145] As shown in FIG. 31, the partition layer 3410 is made of insulating material with damping, such as silica gel, etc., and is arranged between the electrode plate 3190 and the valve body 3200, i.e., between the bottom of the electrode plate 3190 and the top of the first fixed layer, for partitioning the electrode plate 3190 and the valve body 3200 to reduce the vibration of the pump body 3100 from being transmitted to the valve body 3200, thereby achieving buffering.

[0146] Further, the profiles of the cushion layer 3400, the electrode plate 3190 and the partition layer 3410 are substantially consistent in the up-down direction projection, and two conductive grooves 3420 are arranged in the two adjacent corner portions inside the one portion of the frame, one of the two conductive grooves 3420 being close to the conductive through hole in the one portion of the frame. The conductive grooves 3420 are filled with conductive glue, which can increase the contact area of the electrode plate 3190 and the outer frame and improve the stability of the electrical connection. Further, the two conductive grooves 3420 penetrate the cushion layer 3400 and the electrode plate 3190 and communicate with the vibration cavity, forming open conductive grooves 3420. Compared with the traditional closed conductive grooves, the open conductive grooves 3420 can reduce the gaps and cavities that occur when the internal conductive glue is filled, avoid open circuit, and avoid the problem of impedance rise due to poor heat dissipation after long-term work.

[0147] The valve body 3200 includes the first fixed layer 3210, the elastic film layer 3220, the second fixed layer 3230 and the side wall portion 3240 assembled in sequence from top to bottom, and the structure is basically the same as that of the valve body of Embodiment 1, except that:

[0148] As shown in FIG. 25, the first fixed layer 3210, the elastic film layer 3220 and the second fixed layer 3230 are laid on the side wall portion 3240, and in the up-down direction projection, the first fixed layer 3210, the elastic film layer 3220 and the second fixed layer 3230 cover the side wall portion 3240. The first fixed layer 3210, the elastic film layer 3220 and the second fixed layer 3230 maintain a uniform outer profile size, which can improve the convenience of processing and installation.

[0149] As shown in FIG. 32 and FIG. 33, the elastic film layer 3220 is provided with a recess 3224 on the side surface facing the first fixed layer 3210, and the normally closed hole 3222 is close to the middle of the recess 3224 and penetrates the recess 3224. The first fixed layer 3210 is provided with an abutting table 3215 protruding on the side surface facing the elastic film layer 3220, the abutting table 3215 abuts with the recess 3224 and covers the normally closed hole 3222; the first fixed layer 3210 is further provided with three transmission holes 3212, but the number is not limited to three, and each transmission hole 3212 is arranged in the circumferential direction outside the abutting table 3215 and communicates with the recess 3224.

[0150] When the first fixed layer 3210 protrudes away from the elastic film layer 3220, the abutment platform 3215 abuts against the elastic film layer 3220, covering the elastic normally closed hole 3222, and the fluid in the cavity cannot flow into the inside of the side wall part 3240 through the normally closed hole 3222. At this time, the elastic film layer 3220 is separated from the boss 3248, and the fluid in the inside of the side wall part 3240 can flow out of the outside through the boss transmission hole 3249 to release pressure. When the first fixed layer 3210 protrudes away from the elastic film layer 3220, the abutment platform 3215 is away from the elastic normally closed hole 3222 due to the difference in bending degree between the first fixed layer 3210 and the elastic film layer 3220, the fluid flows into the recess 3224 through the transmission hole 3212, and then flows into the space surrounded by the side wall part 3240 through the elastic normally closed hole 3222. At this time, the elastic film layer 3220 abuts against the second fixed layer 3230 and covers the boss transmission hole 3249, and the fluid in the inside of the side wall part 3240 cannot flow out of the outside through the boss transmission hole 3249.

[0151] Further, as shown in FIG. 33, the elastic film layer 3220 is further provided with a sound damping part 3226, which is composed of a plurality of fan-shaped blocks (not labeled) protruding towards the first fixed layer 3210. Projected in the up-down direction, each fan-shaped block surrounds the outside of the boss transmission hole 3249 and forms a gap extending radially along the boss transmission hole 3249 between each other, and the small end of each fan-shaped block faces the boss transmission hole 3249, thereby forming a circular reinforcing area in the middle of the sound damping part 3226, and each fan-shaped block is located in the first avoiding opening 3214. By providing the sound damping part 3226, the elastic modulus of the elastic film layer 3220 can be enhanced, the elastic film layer 3220 can be prompted to change a certain shape when releasing pressure, the abnormal sound can be reduced, and the noise reduction can be achieved. In addition, in this embodiment, the blocks are fan-shaped, but in other embodiments, they can be other shapes of protrusions, such as rectangular, etc.

[0152] Further, as shown in FIG. 34, the boss 3248 of the side wall part 3240 is provided with a reinforcing sheet 3251 on the side facing the second fixed layer 3230, the reinforcing sheet 3251 covers at least a part of the boss 3248, the reinforcing sheet 3251 is spaced apart from the elastic film layer 3220, and the sum of the thicknesses of the boss 3248 and the reinforcing sheet 3251 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the side wall part 3240, and the boss transmission hole 3249 penetrates the boss 3248 and the reinforcing sheet 3251 at the same time, so that the elastic film layer 3220 bends downward better to seal the boss transmission hole 3249. Further, in order to improve the sealing, the boss 3248 and the reinforcing sheet 3251 can be made of different materials, for example but not limited to, the boss 3248 is made of glass fiber plate, and the reinforcing sheet 3251 is made of metal sheet.

[0153] In the above, the embodiments of the micro-integrated piezoelectric pump device with rectangular shape and with circular shape are described, however, according to other embodiments of the present application, the micro-integrated piezoelectric pump device can also be provided with other shapes, such as but not limited to rectangular, elliptical, polygonal, etc. according to the requirements. Among them, the outer frame of the pump body is provided with a square opening, which can be adapted to the vibrator structure of the above-mentioned embodiments, without the need for additional separate design and manufacture of the vibrator.

[0154] The above merely describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, and any changes or replacements easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present application shall be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
