Description

Round trip Linear actuator and method based on one way shape-memory effect
Technical field
The present invention adopts the marmem design of one way memory effect and makes has the driver that round trip drives effect and large driving force, can be used for the actuation element of intelligence structure.
Background technique
Intelligence structure/material is to propose in the fifties in last century, receives publicity in the seventies, is paid much attention to especially in recent years.The mechanism that is engaged at present intelligence structure research in the world has: the jet propulsion laboratory of the U.S. (JPL), German aerospace studies institute, French state aviation space research institute, Japanese aerospace research institute, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology etc.US military has also been participated in development directly with some government organs, like " the smart material and structure plan " of research office of ground force, and " plan of intelligence structure covering " of air force's space laboratory.The intelligence structure research of SPACE APPLICATION was promptly set about by cosmic exploration institute of Japan Airlines, Tokyo Institute of Technology and some major companies from 1984, main research contents comprises that the employing intelligence structure realizes active vibration control, self-adapting changeable shape truss etc.
Intelligence structure is to take as the leading factor with intellectual material, has the structural system of the bionic function of self-perception and self-control.It is that detecting element (sensor), driving element (actuator) and micro treatment control system (control circuit, signal processor etc.) are merged with body material mutually, forms a kind of structure with functions such as identification, analysis, judgement, actions.
Marmem (Shape Memory Alloy; Write a Chinese character in simplified form SMA) as a kind of novel intelligent material; With its unique shape note memory effect and superelastic effect; And good physicochemical property and biocompatibility, use extensive day by day in fields such as engineering, control, medical treatment, the energy and machineries.The shape-memory mechanism of marmem is based on a kind of reversible solid state phase changes, i.e. transformation between low temperature phase martensite and the high temperature phase austenite, and this phase transformation is called martensitic phase transformation.There are three kinds of basic crystalline structure in nickel-titanium shape memory alloy commonly used: martensite, austenite, stress-induced martensite.When alloy is the low-temperature martensite phase time, alloy is softer, shows as to have good ductility and tensility, and after being heated to uniform temperature, alloy begins to shrink and change austenite into, shows as strength and stiffness and is improved significantly.Stress-induced martensite is meant that the alloy to being in austenitic state applies external force, and then alloy generation austenite is to martensitic transformation, and the martensite that forms is stress-induced martensite.After stress is removed, then change austenite again into.This effect becomes pseudoelasticity.
Marmem (SMA) also has three kinds of shape-memory characteristics except common resiliently deformable, plastic deformation, thermal expansion and shrinking, be respectively:
1) one way shape-memory effect: the alloy to being in martensitic state applies external force, makes it produce plastic deformation, and after the removal external force, then plastic deformation is retained.Alloy is heated, then can be returned to the preceding state of distortion.After this, again alloy is cooled off then formless change.Because one way shape-memory effect can produce big restoring force and recover strain, and is therefore more in the application of driver.
2) double process shape-memory effect: except one way shape-memory effect, the alloy after the heating is cooled off again, the change of shape still can take place in alloy, and need not apply external force, promptly through heating and cooling shape is changed repeatedly.But, be used as the few of driver under stress element because double process shape-memory effect is all little than one way effect aspect the recovery strain in restoring force.
3) pseudoelasticity: under the austenitic transformation end temp condition that is higher than, marmem is applied external force, it is deformed, like removal external force, then alloy is returned to original shape fully, and need not heat or cool off, and this characteristics are known as pseudoelasticity.
The cardinal principle of SMA Linear actuator commonly used is that parts one end that needs move is connected with the SMA silk at present, and the other end is connected with bias spring.Utilize one way shape-memory effect, through energising utilizes resistance heat that its temperature is raise to the SMA silk, undergo phase transition, the SMA silk then produces contraction, needs moving to shrinkage direction of driver part thereby drive; For moving member is moved round about, utilize bias spring that restoring force is provided, after the SMA cooling, rely on the external force of spring that parts are moved round about.The people such as Guglielmo Magri of big Lima Er Kai Polytechnics of complying with one's wishes have utilized this principle design can realize that the driver of boiler water valve conversion (sees periodical: Sensors and Actuators A, 2006 years, 128 phases; The page number: 355 – 366); Through to SMA silk energising heating, martensite takes place to austenitic transformation, produce and shrink; The contractile force that produces as SMA then drives switch valve and moves to shrinkage direction during greater than the power of recovery springs; When stopping energising, then the SMA silk cools off gradually, austenite takes place to martensitic transformation, because martensitic Young's modulus is low, under the effect of recovery springs pulling force, the SMA silk is stretched easily, drives valve and moves in the opposite direction.Thereby can realize the on-off action of valve.Because the type Linear actuator only heats the SMA silk on the direction when driving, and cooling relies on natural cooling, therefore has obvious retardation phenomenon, is unfavorable for real-time control.As will improve the response time and then need add cooling unit, cause whole activation configuration complicated.Utilize bias spring as recovery device simultaneously; The parameter of spring designs; Process is complicated, promptly need calculate power and size that spring produces, guarantees that spring can be stretched when SMA changes austenite into and shrinks; And when SMA was martensitic state, spring can draw the elongation of SMA silk.Realize that for the one way shape-memory effect that directly utilizes the SMA silk the parallel mobile Linear actuator of round trip does not appear in the newspapers at present.
Summary of the invention
The present invention seeks to provides a kind of round trip Linear actuator and method based on one way shape-memory effect to the defective that existing technology exists, and the present invention utilizes this Linear actuator can realize that round trip is parallel mobile, does not need bias spring, easily design; Utilize one way shape-memory effect during design, make this driver have big restoring force; In the driving process, only can realize two-way moving,, not need cooling procedure, solve slow shortcoming of response time because two-way moving all utilizes the energising heating to realize to SMA silk energising heating; Owing to do not need bias spring and cooling unit, whole driving mechanism is simple, compact simultaneously.
