Description

Four-wing ornithopter
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of flapping wing aircrafts.
Background
The vibration frequency of the dragonfly wings is 30-40Hz, so that various flight modes such as stable hovering, rapid turning, continuous forward flight and the like can be realized, the wings can flap, twist, forward sweep and the like, and the flight attitude can be switched at will, which is the best reference template for the design and development of the miniature flapping-wing aircraft, however, the existing dragonfly-scale miniature flapping-wing aircraft is difficult to reproduce the flight capability of the dragonfly.
The dragonfly-imitating miniature flapping wing aircraft is an aircraft flying based on dragonfly serial wing motion mode. Different from bird-like aircraft, motor driving mode under the large scale is very limited under the dragonfly scale because the driving force and the efficiency of motor can show the decline under the small scale because of being influenced by surface force, and high transmission efficiency can not be guaranteed to axle and gear in traditional mechanical structure, and the processing degree of difficulty is very big.
The intelligent material is a new material capable of sensing environmental changes and realizing instructions and execution through self judgment and conclusion, and has the characteristics of high power density, self sensing, self driving, large deformation and the like. The piezoelectric intelligent composite structure can realize the functions of driving, sensing, energy collection and the like, so that the piezoelectric intelligent composite structure has a very promising application in miniature ornithopters.
Research on domestic miniature ornithopters with insect scale has been carried out with a certain result. Chinese patent publication No. CN106081104a, application No. 201610574891.0 provides a piezoelectric driven ornithopter of insect scale. Chinese patent publication No. CN107284659a, application No. 201610200303.7 provides a method for changing the maximum amplitude of wings of a pico-type ornithopter based on a piezoelectric structure. Chinese patent publication No. CN105366050a, application No. 2015124649. X provides a piezoelectric dragonfly-like micro flapping wing aircraft. However, the current miniature flapping wing aircraft imitating insects, such as the aircraft disclosed in the patent publication No. CN106081104A, has the weight of sub-milligram, and can realize flapping motion of a pair of wings, but the flying posture is not easy to adjust. The direct attachment of the piezoelectric structure to the wing changes the wing maximum amplitude, but the deformation of the piezoelectric material is small and it is difficult to obtain a large deformation for this direct attachment arrangement, as previously disclosed in publication number CN107284659 a. The piezoelectric-driven dragonfly-like design proposed in the previous publication No. CN105366050A is also a piezoelectric composite structure directly connected with the wing, and large flapping amplitude is difficult to obtain.

Introduction to piezoelectric actuator:
the piezoelectric actuator is a composite structure composed of a piezoelectric ceramic material (PZT-5H) and a carbon fiber prepreg. The structure is three layers, the upper layer and the lower layer are piezoelectric ceramic layers, the middle layer is carbon fiber prepreg, and the piezoelectric ceramic layers are tightly bonded together by resin in the carbon fiber prepreg in a curing mode. The piezoelectric ceramic deforms under the action of an external electric field, and is a functional material capable of realizing the conversion of electric energy and mechanical energy. The deformation direction of the piezoelectric ceramic has a close relation with the direction of the applied electric field, namely, when the direction of the applied electric field is parallel to the polarization direction of the applied electric field, the piezoelectric ceramic generates elongation deformation perpendicular to the polarization direction, namely, the length direction of the piezoelectric ceramic, and otherwise, shrinkage deformation is generated, which utilizes the axial piezoelectric effect (namely, d31 piezoelectric effect) of the piezoelectric ceramic. When the deformation directions of the piezoelectric ceramics of the upper and lower layers of the whole actuator are opposite, the upper ceramic layer is elongated and the lower ceramic layer is contracted, then the whole actuator is bent downward, and vice versa.
In d31 mode, the drive can be made to swing up and down by changing the conditions of the applied voltage to provide a force source for the transmission mechanism.
