Embodiment
Compliant mechanism is wherein formed by a plurality of rigid bars and the gentle hinge of galianconism textural association.Here the gentle hinge of the galianconism that relates to is the one section circular arc thin-wall construction with higher flexibility that connects two sections rigid body rod members, and the two ends of circular arc link to each other with two rigid body rod members respectively, and three's material is identical.Fix and another rod member when stressed when one of them rod member, the circular arc thin-walled that connects two sections rod members bends, and produces on inside and outside two surfaces of thin-walled and to stretch or racking strains.This strain can detect by the fiber-optic grating sensor that pastes this position.According to the correlation theory of the gentle hinge of galianconism, its crooked equivalence can be regarded as the rotation of common hinge, and when utilizing this sensor measurement two-dimensional space displacement, the axis of circular arc is perpendicular with the two-dimensional space that will measure in the structure.The number needs of the gentle hinge of galianconism will be determined according to measured deformation characteristics, so if only adopt the gentle hinge of a galianconism in this compliant mechanism, then can only do circular motion by movable rigid bar, does not meet actual measurement; If adopt the structure of the gentle hinge series connection of two galianconism, then compliant mechanism can't be described the straight line relative motion in the plane; When compliant mechanism adopts the structure of the gentle hinge series connection of three galianconism and three axis not in same plane, the various motions in the plane can be described fully promptly; If adopt structure more than the gentle hinge series connection of three galianconism, then the measurement performance of compliant mechanism is identical with the gentle hinge series connection of three galianconism, and need the more optical fiber grating, increased the use cost of device, so this compliant mechanism adopts the structure of the gentle hinge series connection of three galianconism, so not only can describe rotation but also can describe rectilinear motion.
In the time need measuring to the relative shift in the three dimensions, can change the quantity and the direction of the gentle hinge of galianconism according to actual conditions, principle is identical with measurement two-dimensional space displacement, so be used for measuring the compliant mechanism of the relative shift in the three dimensions except that the gentle hinge of three galianconism structure of the structure of needs reservation two-dimensional space displacement measurement, also need to add again the gentle hinge of the galianconism structure of three series connection, and the axis of circular arc is perpendicular with arc axis before, the alternately series connection of the gentle hinge of six galianconism of both direction structure.In addition, the designed structure of the gentle hinge of galianconism will make things convenient for the stickup of fiber-optic grating sensor.As compliant mechanism 5 by the axis of seven rigid bars and six thin-walled circular arcs not the gentle hinge of the galianconism in same plane interleaved series constitute, and be used to measure the gentle hinge of galianconism on a plane with leg-of-mutton mode layout with three respectively, with other three gentle hinges equally with leg-of-mutton mode layout of galianconism that are used to measure another plane, the orderings of six gentle hinges of galianconism are according to measuring the required layout of carrying out.
The layout of the gentle hinge of galianconism will consider to make things convenient for machining simultaneously to satisfy relative motion to be measured.With the compliant mechanism that is used to measure relative displacement in the two-dimensional space is example, and the formation of this space displacement sensor is described, as shown in Figure 1, space displacement sensor is made up of compliant mechanism 5 and single-mode fiber grating 3.Compliant mechanism 5 is made of four rigid bars and three the gentle hinge of galianconism interleaved series, the gentle hinge of three galianconism is distributed in the position of a right angle drift angle and two 45 degree acute angles respectively with the layout type of isosceles right triangle.Single-mode fiber grating 3 is made of by the single-mode fiber interleaved series three grating sections 2.This structure is to be priority condition to make things convenient for machining.Grating section 2 according to different request for utilizations, can be made multistage grating section 2, the centre wavelength difference of each grating section 2 for one section zone through having the strain sensitive characteristic after the processing processing on the single-mode fiber grating 3 on same single-mode fiber grating 3.
Among Fig. 1-3, the arc axis of the gentle hinge of three galianconism are all perpendicular to measurement plane, and not in a plane.Be reacted in the gentle hinge of three galianconism structure by all distortion in the plane of measurand 4 caused compliant mechanisms 5 are concentrated.
Before the measurement, single-mode fiber grating 3 is connected on the fiber Bragg grating (FBG) demodulator 1, three grating sections 2 stick on the gentle hinge of three galianconism position (A, B, C) of compliant mechanism respectively, afterwards the two ends of compliant mechanism 5 are separately fixed at the position to be measured of measurand 4.
During measurement, fiber Bragg grating (FBG) demodulator 1 can send laser, and laser is along 3 transmission of single-mode fiber grating.When laser arrives the grating section 2 that is positioned at the gentle hinge of each galianconism position, according to formula λ B=2 η Λ, with the light reflected back optical fiber grating demodulation instrument 1 of different wave length, fiber Bragg grating (FBG) demodulator 1 carries out demodulation after receiving reflected light, and with digital form output wave long value.When the distortion of measurand 4 generations makes two positions to be measured that relative motion 8 take place, compliant mechanism 5 deforms, and distortion is embodied a concentrated reflection of the circular arc thin-walled position of the gentle hinge of galianconism, because stretching or racking strain that the bending of the gentle hinge of galianconism is produced on circular arc thin-walled surface, drive is pasted on lip-deep fiber-optic grating sensor generation axial strain, make that the grating reflection optical wavelength changes in the grating section 2, the wavelength of the variation numerical information that output wavelength changes after fiber Bragg grating (FBG) demodulator demodulation 1.
After the measurement, numerical information by fiber Bragg grating (FBG) demodulator 1 output is calculated grating reflection optical wavelength variable quantity in the grating section 2, extrapolate the strain that grating section 2 takes place, calculate the surface strain amount of circular arc thin-walled again according to the strain formula, geometric parameter and mechanics of materials formula according to the gentle hinge of galianconism calculate the gentle corner that cuts with scissors of galianconism, the rotation information of the gentle hinge of last comprehensive a plurality of galianconism and the geometric parameter of rigid bar draw the relative motion result at compliant mechanism 5 two ends, are the relative motion 9 of two positions to be measured on the measurand 4.
Among Fig. 4, the gentle arc axis that cuts with scissors A, B, C in the structure of galianconism is parallel to each other distribution triangular in shape among the figure; The arc axis of D, E, F is parallel to each other, distribution triangular in shape; And the arc axis of A, B, C is vertical mutually with the arc axis of D, E, F.The measurement characteristics that the compliant mechanism of this kind mechanism can be realized fiber-optic grating sensor from one-dimensional measurement to three-dimensional expansion.
Among Fig. 5, the fixed position of 6 expression compliant mechanisms and measurand (as, screw is fastening), 7 expression measurands are deformation state (initial state) not, state after the 8 expression measurand distortion, the spatial position change (relative motion of position to be measured) of compliant mechanism end before and after the 9 expression distortion.The space displacement sensor both sides are connected with the position to be measured of measurand 4 by screw 6.When measurand 4 is subjected to a power and makes an end with respect to the other end a relative space displacement take place, the state 8 after the distortion of being is with respect to the spatial position change 9 of deformation state 7 not.Space displacement sensor of the present invention can obtain the relevant information of spatial position change 9, so that subsequent treatment,
