Description

Adjustable viscous damper for spacecraft
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of aerospace, and particularly relates to an adjustable viscous damper for a spacecraft.
Background
Vibration induced by various reasons in a spacecraft during multiple dynamic processes such as launching, mechanism unfolding, attitude adjustment, changing of flight orbits and the like is a main factor affecting structural strength, system reliability and safety, task completion quality, system stability and satellite life. In particular, for large flexible spacecraft structures, in addition to the large-amplitude low-frequency vibrations occurring during the launching process, the low-frequency vibrations generated during the on-orbit operation due to posture adjustment or mechanism deployment are also not negligible.
At present, many disposable unfolding mechanisms on a spacecraft adopt elastic elements as power sources and are unfolded in a rotating mode, if restraining measures cannot be carried out, certain impact is inevitably generated on the spacecraft when the mechanisms are unfolded in place, the working performance and control precision of high-precision and high-resolution equipment on the spacecraft are affected, and failure or even damage of key components is caused.
Because the dynamic environments are random and cannot be avoided in structural design, corresponding vibration suppression or vibration isolation measures are needed to improve the dynamic performance, the reliability and the safety of the spacecraft, and a known effective solution in the related art is to increase the damping level of the whole or partial structure of the spacecraft by adopting a damping enhancement structure and absorb or dissipate the vibration energy transmitted from a vibration source to a payload through the structure of the spacecraft by adopting a damper.
The existing viscous damper is mainly applied to the control of linear reciprocating motion, is a gap type fluid damper, fluid flows through an annular gap, and the main reason for the resistance is fluid shearing force. The requirement of controlling vibration absorption by a large amount of rotation exists in the spacecraft mechanism, and the application expansion direction of the viscous damper is realized.
CN213808580U discloses a rotary viscous damper, which is axially arranged at intervals of multiple groups, and has a complicated mechanical structure, high cost, high requirement on manufacturing process and non-adjustable damping moment.
CN112797105a discloses a rotary viscous damper, in which viscous liquid flows between a screw and an internal thread gap of a fitting hole after being extruded, thereby achieving a damping effect. The damper and the existing viscous damper with linear motion are gap type fluid dampers, and fluid flows through the annular gap to generate shearing force, so that a damping effect is achieved. The contact area between the damper moving part and the cavity is large, so that the volume in the length direction is large, the damping moment is not adjustable, and the application occasion is greatly limited.
CN103403388A discloses a rotary damper which resists the damping moment of the applied rotational force by opening and closing of check valves on the rotary blades, which structure causes the damping force direction of the damper to be unidirectional only, limiting the application of the damper. Meanwhile, a check valve is added on the side face of the rotary blade, an elastomer and a valve needle structure are arranged in the check valve, the elastomer is opened through the rotary force, viscous fluid passes through the check valve, the check valve can be opened only under the condition that the rotary force is larger than the preset elastic force of the spring due to the fact that the elastomer has a certain elastic force, and when the rotary force is smaller than the preset elastic force, the check valve is closed, the damper cannot play a damping role at the moment, and the risk of damage to adjacent mechanisms is seriously caused. Meanwhile, the processing difficulty of forming the special-shaped holes on the blade parts is high, the assembly is difficult, the structure is complex, and the damping force is not adjustable.

The first, second and third sealing rings 16, 17 and 18 are designed to prevent leakage of viscous liquid from the interior cavity 11 of the stator housing 1.
Specifically, the stator housing 1 is cylindrical, a mounting hole site is formed in the side surface of the stator housing 1 and is used for mounting the stator blocking piece 3, a series of mounting screw holes are formed in the corresponding peripheral parts of the sealing cover plate 2 and the stator housing 1, and the stator housing 1 is connected with the sealing cover plate 2 through screws in the mounting screw holes. The stator housing 1, the stator barrier 3 and the spatial structure remain relatively motionless as stator parts.
In the present embodiment, the number of the orifices 10 is two, and the number of the sub-rotor barriers 7 is two corresponding to the number of the orifices 10. The side of the sub-rotating shaft 6 is provided with a groove, and the sub-rotor blocking piece 7 is embedded into the groove.
Specifically, the stator blocking member 3 is mounted on a side mounting hole of the stator housing, two orifices 10 are formed in the stator blocking member 3, a cylindrical hole is formed in the length direction of the stator blocking member 3, and the stator blocking member 3 and the stator housing are kept stationary by penetrating through the two orifices 10. The side surface of the sub-rotating shaft 6 is provided with a groove for installing the sub-rotor blocking piece 7, and the sub-rotating shaft 6 passes through a second through hole 13 at the periphery of the sealing cover plate 2 and a cylindrical hole in the length direction of the stator blocking piece 3 to be installed on the stator blocking piece 3. The sub-rotor blocking piece 7 is in a semicircular disc shape and is embedded in a groove on the side face of the sub-rotating shaft 6, and the opening amplitude of the throttle hole 10 can be adjusted along with the rotation of the sub-rotating shaft 6.
In the embodiment, the main rotating shaft 4 adopts symmetrical stepped shafts, and the middle part of the main rotating shaft 4 forms a light shaft part for installing the rotating cylinder 8; the rotary drum 8 is fixedly connected with the optical axis part of the main rotating shaft 4, and the blocking part 9 rotates along with the main rotating shaft 4 through the rotary drum 8.
Specifically, the main rotating shaft 4 is a symmetrical stepped shaft, and the middle section is an optical axis, so that the main rotor blocking piece 5 is conveniently sleeved on the optical axis through the rotary cylinder 8. The main rotating shaft 4 is vertically arranged on the device through a first through hole 12 in the middle of the sealing cover plate 2 and a fourth through hole 15 at the bottom of the stator housing 1. The rotary cylinder 8 is formed with a cylindrical hole through which the intermediate optical axis portion of the main rotation shaft 4 is fitted and fixed (the fixing means may be welding) to the intermediate optical axis portion as a rotor portion. The two ends of the main rotating shaft 4 can be connected with a space mechanism (spacecraft rotating assembly) to transmit the impact generated by the spacecraft into the damper.
In this embodiment, the sub-rotor barrier 7 is rotated by rotating the sub-shaft 6 to change the opening width of the orifice 10, and the opening width of the orifice 10 is changed to change the rotation damping of the main rotor barrier 5.
In particular, the damping force of viscous damping is mainly due to the flow of fluid in the valve or damping orifice, and fluid damping is generally assumed to be viscous damping in an ideal situation. In the technical solution of this embodiment, the stator blocking member 3 may be regarded as a thin wall, the orifice 10 is regarded as a hole on the thin wall, when the fluid flows through the thin wall hole, the fluid viscosity is larger, the aperture is smaller, the fluid may become turbulent flow in the damping hole, and may become laminar flow, and because there is a sudden change of the section to form the restriction, at this time, the on-way resistance and the local resistance in the hole pipe exist at the same time, which causes the pressure of the fluid cavity 11 to be compressed to be greater than the pressure of the fluid cavity 11 to be released, and a pressure difference is formed on both sides of the orifice 10 to generate damping, so that the damping force linearly increases with the increase of the fluid velocity during the flow of the fluid flowing through the thin wall hole, as known from theoretical analysis. I.e., rotational damping is positively correlated to the flow rate within the orifice 10, while fluid flow rate is affected by the flow area of the orifice 10, and thus damping can be adjusted by adjusting the flow area of the orifice 10.
In this embodiment, the stator blocking member 3 may be seen as a thin wall, the orifice 10 may be seen as a hole on the thin wall, the stator blocking member 3 and the main rotor blocking member 5 divide the interior of the stator housing 1 into two cavities 11, the two cavities 11 are connected by the orifice 10, and the opening size of the orifice 10 may be driven by the sub-rotating shaft 6 to adjust the rotation of the sub-rotor blocking member 7 to change the opening width of the orifice 10. The two cavities 11 are filled with viscous liquid damping material, and when the main shaft 4 rotates along with the space mechanism, the main rotor barrier 5 rotates along with the main shaft 4, and a pressure difference is generated in the two cavities 11, so that viscous liquid is forced to flow from one cavity 11 to the other cavity 11 through the orifice 10.
