A hollow structure Go piece

This invention discloses a hollow structure Go piece, belonging to the technical field of chess products. The invention includes a Go piece body, which consists of a shell, a hollow area, and internal supports. The Go piece body adopts a thin-shell structure design, with hollow areas on the shell and internal supports arranged in the non-hollow areas. Specifically, the pentagram series hollow Go pieces use a fully supported structure, while the snowflake series hollow Go pieces feature a combination of columnar and radial support structures. This invention optimizes the layout of the hollow areas and internal supports through topological modeling, significantly reducing weight, achieving a lightweight Go set, and facilitating portability while effectively ensuring the structural strength and durability of the Go pieces. This invention relies on structural optimization to precisely control the center of gravity of the Go pieces, ensuring a high degree of consistency in the center of gravity of each piece through refined structural proportions, effectively improving placement stability and game feel. This invention features a novel structure, diverse shapes, and strong practicality, effectively solving the technical problems of traditional solid Go pieces, such as heavy weight, inconvenience in carrying, difficulty in accurately controlling the center of gravity, and poor consistency.

Fixtures and methods for correcting deformation of thin-walled welded supports of titanium alloy

This invention relates to a deformation correction fixture and method for a thin-walled welded titanium alloy support, belonging to the field of metal material machining technology. By utilizing this novel process technology and taking advantage of the similarity between the heat treatment and forming temperatures of titanium alloys, this invention achieves stress relief and shape correction within the weld seam in a single process. The use of a combined, retractable, dedicated correction fixture effectively ensures the spatial relationship between the base assembly surface of the support component and the pipe end axis, while simultaneously providing internal support for the thin-shell structure, achieving full-surface correction of the support. This provides a valuable reference for heat treatment correction methods for this type of hollow thin-walled structure.

Full-scale design method of multi-porous stiffened shell based on multi-piece equal geometry topology optimization

This invention belongs to the field of structural optimization technology. It discloses a full-scale design method for porous stiffened shells based on multi-piece isogeometric topology optimization. The steps are as follows: (1) Divide the thin shell structure and the stiffening region into high-order NURBS element meshes respectively; (2) Use isogeometric Kirchhoff-Love shell elements to describe the thin shell structure and three-dimensional solid elements to describe the stiffening region. Decompose the high-order NURBS element mesh into Bézier elements, and then construct solid-shell coupled elements; (3) Set the equivalent density as a design variable on each solid element. Transform the design variable into the equivalent density on the control points of the thin shell by applying mapping constraints. At the same time, introduce local volume constraints on the design variable to obtain bone-like porous stiffening, and then construct a full-scale multi-piece isogeometric topology optimization model for porous stiffened shells, and finally obtain the optimized porous stiffened shell structure.
