The invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Example 1
As shown in fig. 1, a rigid-flexible coupling large-stroke high-load actuator comprises a system frame 2 and a plurality of actuator units 1. The system frame 2 is cylindrical. The actuator units 1 are elongated and in this embodiment are three in number. The three actuator units 1 are arranged in a regular triangle.
As shown in fig. 2, 3 and 4, the actuator unit 1 comprises a pneumatic artificial muscle 6, a ratchet 3, a safety lock mechanism 4, a damping system 9, a first one-way locking mechanism 5 and a second one-way locking mechanism 7. The first one-way locking mechanism 5 and the second one-way locking mechanism 7 are respectively arranged at two ends of the pneumatic artificial muscle 6. The pawl frame 5-1 in the first one-way locking mechanism 5 is fixed with the inner side wall of the system frame 2. The pawl frame 5-1 in the second one-way locking mechanism 7 and the inner side wall of the system frame 2 form a sliding pair. When the pneumatic artificial muscle 6 stretches, the second one-way locking mechanism can be driven to slide along the length direction of the system frame 2. The pneumatic artificial muscle 6 adopts Mckiben muscle which is powered by an external air pressure source, and the Mckiben muscle naturally extends under the pressure relief state and shortens under the pressure charging state. The pneumatic artificial muscle 6 and the two pawl frames 5-1 are both cylindrical. The ratchet bar 3 passes through the central cavity of the pneumatic artificial muscle 6 and the two ratchet rack 5-1 and is matched with the two one-way locking mechanisms to move. The sliding key 3-1 arranged at the side part of the ratchet bar 3 and the sliding groove on the inner side wall of the pawl rack 5-1 form a sliding pair. The ratchet strip 3 is made of elastic material.
As shown in figures 4, 5 and 6, the first one-way locking mechanism and the second one-way locking mechanism are identical in structure and respectively comprise a pawl rack 5-1, a limiting spring 5-2, a pawl 5-5, a pawl sliding block 5-4, a sliding block platform 5-3 and an execution air bag 5-7. The sliding block platform 5-3 is fixed in the pawl rack 5-1. The pawl slide block 5-4 and the slide groove 5-6 on the slide block platform 5-3 form a slide pair. The sliding direction of the sliding block platform 5-3 is vertical to the length direction of the ratchet strip 3. A limiting spring 5-2 is arranged between the pawl slide block 5-4 and the inner side wall of the pawl rack 5-1. The end part of the sliding block platform 5-3 is provided with a limiting plate. The limiting plate is positioned between the ratchet bar 3 and the pawl slide block 5-4. The execution air bag 5-7 is installed on the sliding block platform 5-3 and is positioned between the pawl sliding block 5-4 and the limiting plate. The side part of the sliding block platform 5-3 is provided with a through hole for leading out the air bag vent pipeline 5-8. One end of the pawl 5-5 is hinged with the outer side surface of the pawl sliding block 5-4, and the other end is matched with the ratchet 3-2 on the ratchet bar 3. A torsion spring is arranged between the pawl 5-5 and the pawl sliding block 5-4. The torsion spring provides the pawl 5-5 with a spring force against the ratchet 3. When the actuating air bag 5-7 is not pressurized, the pawl 5-5 is engaged with the ratchet 3 so that the ratchet 3 can only slide in one direction. When the pressurized inflation of the air bag 5-7 is performed, the slider platform 5-3 is pushed away from the ratchet 3, so that the pawl 5-5 is separated from the ratchet 3. One side surface of the pawl 5-5 is a concave smooth curved surface, and the other side surface is formed by connecting a convex curved surface with a plane.
The damping system 9 is mounted within the first one-way locking mechanism 5. The damping system 9 comprises a U-shaped pipe 9-2, a U-shaped spring 9-5, a connecting rod 9-1, a damping rod 9-3 and a damping friction block 9-4. The U-shaped pipe 9-2 is fixed on a pawl rack 5-1 of the first one-way locking mechanism. The two ends of the U-shaped pipe 9-2 are opened towards the sliding key 3-1 at the side part of the ratchet bar 3. The bent part of the U-shaped pipe 9-2 is far away from the ratchet strip 3. The damping rod 9-3 is arranged on the side part of the sliding block platform 5-3 and is connected with the sliding block platform 5-3 in a sliding way. The inner end of the damping rod 9-3 is close to one of the ends of the U-shaped tube 9-2. The outer end of the damping rod 9-3 is fixed with a damping friction block 9-4. The damping friction block 9-4 is aligned with the sliding key 3-1 at the side of the ratchet 3. A cuboid friction material at the outer end of the damping friction block 9-4. The U-shaped spring 9-5 is arranged to penetrate through the U-shaped pipe 9-2. One end of the U-shaped spring 9-5 is fixed with the inner end of the damping rod 9-3. The other end of the U-shaped spring 9-5 is fixed with the corresponding pawl slide block 5-4 through a connecting rod 9-1. When the pawl slide block 5-4 slides to the direction far away from the ratchet strip 3, the U-shaped spring 9-5 is driven to move. The U-shaped spring 9-5 pushes the damping rod 9-3 to move towards the ratchet 3 after being guided by the U-shaped pipe 9-2, so that the damping friction block 9-4 is in contact with the sliding key 3-1, the ratchet 3 is decelerated, and the phenomenon that the ratchet 3 moves too fast when the ratchet loses the restraint of the pawl 5-5 is avoided.
As shown in fig. 7 and 8, the safety lock mechanism 4 is mounted at the outer end of the first unidirectional locking mechanism 5. The safety lock mechanism 4 comprises a safety lock frame 4-1, a speed gear 4-2, a steering gear set 4-3 and a centrifugal lock wheel 8. The safety lock frame 4-1 is a hollow cylinder without an upper bottom surface and a lower bottom surface, and a first cylindrical shaft and a second cylindrical shaft which are parallel to each other are arranged inside the safety lock frame. The inner hole of the speed gear 4-2 is coaxially matched with a first cylindrical shaft in the safety lock rack 4-1. The teeth of the speed gear 4-2 are in contact with the ratchet teeth 3-2 of the ratchet bar 3. The steering gear set 4-3 includes two steering gears mounted on the first cylindrical shaft and the second cylindrical shaft, respectively. The two steering gears mesh.
As shown in fig. 9, the centrifugal locking wheel 8 includes a locking claw 8-1, an oval disk 8-2, and an elastic restricting pin 8-3. The central hole of the elliptic disc 8-2 is coaxially connected with the second cylindrical shaft. The outer end of an oval disc 8-2 of the centrifugal lock wheel is provided with two bosses, and the bosses are provided with two limiting holes 8-4. Two shaft holes 8-5 are arranged at the outer end of the oval plate 8-2 of the centrifugal lock wheel. The elastic limiting pin 8-3 of the centrifugal lock wheel 8 is a T-shaped pin rod made of elastic materials, and the diameter of a cylinder at the end part is larger. The inner ends of the two locking claws 8-1 are respectively and rotatably connected with two shaft holes 8-5 on the elliptic disc 8-2. The outer ends of the two locking claws 8-1 are provided with waist-shaped holes. One end of the elastic limiting pin 8-3 is provided with a pin column; the pin column extends into the kidney-shaped hole corresponding to the locking claw 8-1, and the other end of the pin column is in sliding connection with the limiting hole 8-4 on the corresponding boss. The end part of the pin column far away from the locking claw 8-1 is limited with the lug boss through a shaft shoulder. A torsion spring is arranged between the locking claw 8-1 and the elliptic disc 8-2. The torsion spring applies an elastic force to the locking claw 8-1 to turn the outer end of the locking claw 8-1 inward. The locking pawl 8-1 is aligned with the ratchet 3-1 on the ratchet bar 3. When the ratchet 3 slides downwards, the speed poking gear 4-2 rotates, so that the centrifugal lock wheel 8 is driven to rotate. When the centrifugal lock wheel 8 rotates, the outer end of the lock claw 8-1 is turned outwards under the centrifugal action, and when the lock claw 8-1 is turned to exceed the preset degree, the lock claw 8-1 hooks the falling ratchet 3, so that the ratchet 3 stops falling quickly, and the falling speed of the ratchet 3 is reduced in an extreme case.
Each actuator unit 1 corresponds to three control air pressure tubes, and the three control air pressure tubes are respectively communicated with the pneumatic artificial muscle and the execution air bags in the two one-way locking mechanisms, so that the stretching of the pneumatic artificial muscle and the direct switching between locking and unlocking of the two one-way locking mechanisms are realized.
The driving method of the rigid-flexible coupling large-stroke high-load actuator comprises the following specific steps:
step one, mounting a working platform at the tail ends of the three ratchet strips 3; the tail ends of the three ratchets 3 are compositely connected with the working platform through a sliding-spherical hinge, namely the ratchets 3 and the spherical hinge seat form a spherical pair, and the spherical hinge seat and the working platform form a sliding pair. A weight is loaded on the work platform. In the first one-way locking mechanism 5 and the second one-way locking mechanism 7, the pawl slide block 5-4 is subjected to the thrust action of the limiting spring 5-2, and the pawl slide block 5-4 is close to the ratchet bar 3, so the ratchet 3-2 on the ratchet bar 3 is in forced engagement with the pawl 5-5 of the first one-way locking mechanism 5 and the second one-way locking mechanism 7, the two pawls are subjected to downward load force together, and the pawl slide block 5-4 supports the pawl 5-5 to keep unchanged as the pawl 5-5 is contacted with the pawl slide block 5-4. The whole position of the ratchet 3 is at the bottom.
And step two, an external air pressure source pressurizes the pneumatic artificial muscle 6, and the pneumatic artificial muscle 6 contracts and shortens. Therefore, the position of the first one-way locking mechanism 5 is not changed, the second one-way locking mechanism 7 is lifted, and the pawl 5-5 in the second one-way locking mechanism 7 lifts the ratchet 3. At this time, only the pawl 5-5 in the second one-way locking mechanism receives the load force of the weight and the acceleration force of lifting the weight through the forced engagement with the ratchet 3-2. As the ratchet 3 rises and the first one-way locking mechanism 5 keeps unchanged in position, the ratchet 3-2 in the ratchet 3 is in contact with the curved surface of the pawl 5-5 in the first one-way locking mechanism 6, and the vertical upward acting force acts on the pawl 5-5 of the first one-way locking mechanism 5, and as the cylindrical rod at one end of the pawl 5-5 of the first one-way locking mechanism is coaxially connected with the connecting hole at the upper end of the pawl sliding block 5-4, the pawl 5-5 rotates by taking the axis of the cylindrical rod as the axis until the pawl is separated from the currently contacted ratchet 3-2.
And step three, releasing the pressure of the pneumatic artificial muscle 6 by an external air pressure source, and recovering and lengthening the pneumatic artificial muscle 6. Therefore, the first one-way lock mechanism 5 remains in position and the second one-way lock mechanism 7 descends. At this time, only the pawl 5-5 and the ratchet 3-2 in the first one-way locking mechanism 5 are forced to be engaged and are subjected to the load force of the heavy object, and the ratchet 3 keeps the whole position unchanged. As the second one-way locking mechanism 7 descends and the integral position of the ratchet bar 3 is kept unchanged, the ratchet 3-2 in the ratchet bar 3 is in curved surface contact with the pawl 5-5 in the second one-way locking mechanism 7, and the acting force in the vertical direction acts on the second one-way locking mechanism 7, and as the cylindrical rod at one end of the pawl 5-5 of the second one-way locking mechanism 7 is coaxially connected with the connecting hole at the upper end of the pawl sliding block 5-4, the pawl 5-5 rotates by taking the axis of the cylindrical rod as the axis until the pawl is separated from the currently contacted ratchet 3-2.
And step four, controlling an external air pressure source to continuously release pressure and charge pressure for the pneumatic artificial muscle 6 through an air pressure pipe of the pneumatic artificial muscle 6, and realizing the periodic motion of the step two and the step three, thereby realizing the continuous accumulation of the stroke.
When the lifting of the heavy object needs to be relieved, the external air pressure source pressurizes the execution air bags 5-7 in the first one-way locking mechanism 5 and the second one-way locking mechanism 7. Therefore, the execution air bag 5-7 is pressed to expand to be larger, the pawl slide block 5-4 is pushed to move away from the ratchet 3, and the pawl 5-5 is separated from the ratchet 3-2 of the ratchet 3 and is not contacted. Therefore, the ratchet 3 starts to move vertically downward by the weight of the weight.
At the moment, the connecting rod 9-1 in the damping system 9 moves together with the pawl sliding block 5-4 and is far away from the ratchet 3 to drive the U-shaped spring 9-5 to move along the U-shaped pipe 9-2, so that the damping friction block 9-4 slides to contact the ratchet 3 and applies pressure to the ratchet 3, and the ratchet 3 is rubbed by the damping friction block 9-4, so that the ratchet 3 is prevented from being rapidly lowered.
When the ratchet moves down too fast and there is a safety hazard, the safety lock mechanism 4 starts to work. Since the teeth of the speed gear 4-2 are in contact with the ratchet teeth 3-2, the ratchet bar 3 is driven to rotate the two gears of the steering gear set 4-3 through the speed gear 4-2 when descending, and thus the centrifugal lock gear 8 rotates. If the speed is too high, the locking claw 8-1 is far away from the axis of the elliptic disc 8-2 by centrifugal acting force, at the moment, the end part of the locking claw 8-1 is in contact with the ratchet 3-2 to bear force, and the ratchet 3 stops descending.
Example 2
This example differs from example 1 in that: and a spring for providing a resetting force for the ratchet strip is arranged between each ratchet strip and the system frame 2.
