Technology contents explanation and its advantage:
The cardinal principle of the present invention:The actuation length to change thread like body for the screw diameter of change thread like body, because spirals is straight
The change in footpath can lead to the change of spiral part girth, and the change of each circumference of same helix can be superimposed, and therefore may achieve
Make the technique effect that the superposition of trickle expanding-contracting action is amplified, this drastically becomes for overcoming Electromagnetically actuated magnetic force to increase with distance
Little, fluid pressure actuated(Air pressure, hydraulic pressure)Space more big-movement is slower, inverse piezoelectric effect activates(One kind of electric actuation)Stroke is little
Etc. the defect of prior art have a very big significance;
If spiral number of turns are N;If Zhou Changwei T1 before single turn helix radius change, radius are r1, a diameter of R1, spiral overall length are
L1;If Zhou Changwei T2 before single turn helix radius change, radius are r2, a diameter of R2, spiral overall length are L2;
Then there is formula:(1)、ΔL=L2-L1=ΔT*N=(T2-T1)*N=2πΔr *N;
From above formula, the displacement equations mode of spiral reducing is mainly relevant with the number of turns unrelated with quantity, so can be by adjusting
Number of full circle N is adjusting magnification ratio;
Assume to be used for the driving body of the present invention using the artificial-muscle of the present invention, and set artificial-muscle(Non- for driving body)'s
Number of turns M of helical orbit, set spiral overall length become turn to Δ L', radius change be Δ r';
Then there is Δ L'=2 π Δ r'*M;
It is used at least one artificial-muscle as driving body, because spiral is round, therefore rough identification can be arranged on driving
The radius change size Δ r'=Δ of the spiral of artificial-muscle that can lead under the displacement L ideal effect of internal artificial-muscle
L/2(Artificial-muscle using a plurality of present invention may have Δ r'=Δ L as the driving body of the artificial-muscle of the present invention, in order to
Problem reduction does not do excessive description;)
Then have:ΔL'=2πΔL/2*M;
Above formula substitutes into formula(1)Then have:ΔL'=2πΔL/2*M = π*(2πΔr *N)*M = 2π2*Δr*N*M;
, as driving body, regulation parameter N, M can for the artificial-muscle that the present invention is used as from the foregoing in the artificial-muscle of the present invention
To obtain very big displacement equations multiple;
The present invention's is can be with recursive structure in structure as from the foregoing(Recursive structure one word is the present inventor oneself definition,
Refer mainly to repeat nonlinear superposition design structure, recursive structure refers at many levels in the present invention(More than or equal to 3 layers)Weight
Multiple ' using the reducing of the flexible helical orbit to drive higher level artificial-muscle of the thread like body of low level artificial-muscle '
Design, constitute a displacement equations chain), thus the raising displacement equations multiple of saltatory(Assume third layer helical orbit circle
Number is B circle, then have Δ L''=2 π 3* Δ r*N*M*B, regulation parameter N, M, B can obtain very big displacement equations multiple);
Above computing illustrates that the amplification of the present invention is mainly related with the helical orbit number of turns, the iterative design number of plies,
Also the understanding of reader will not be impacted even if calculating and a small amount of falsehood occurring.
Vocabulary explanation.
' driving body ' refer to drive helical orbit screw diameter change entity, driving body can be element, device or
Functional module, driving body may be with other devices or element common elements or structure, and this is common situations in machinery;Driving body
For example:Fill a large amount of piezoelectric ceramics on a columnar shape basal surface, manipulate piezoelectric ceramics radially stretching in matrix;Hollow fill
Elastic ball of gas etc..
' thread like body ' refers to thread, such as iron hoop chain, steel cable, spring etc., using should be in conjunction with ' public during thread like body of different nature
', ' prior art ', ' rudimentary knowledge ' adopt different designs, must not run counter to ' design one of knowing general knowledge can normal Recycle mechanism
Artificial-muscle ' technical purpose be deliberately set to run, such as:Activated using adopting during flexible linear body
The mode of Shi Zeng great helical orbit screw diameter, and the length of the slack of flexible linear body can not be more than contraction length when activating
Degree, and such as:, avoid using elastic force very it should be noted that thread like body elastic force and stretching, extension span relation using during elastic thread like body as far as possible
Little stretching, extension span but very big elasticity thread like body, and such as:It should be noted that the strength of driving body reducing should overcome the interior of thread like body enough
Stress, so as not to occur leading to because thread like body intensity is too big thread like body spiral part cannot reducing situation, etc..
' helical orbit ' refers to thread like body to be limited to the constant spiral entity of number of turns during reducing or is limited by entity
Space path;Helical orbit can be element, device, have spiral-shaped cavity or groove, the element of composition helical orbit,
Device may be with other devices or element common elements or structure, and this is common situations in mechanical field;Helical orbit is such as:Spiral shell
The threaded hole in spiral-shaped, cylinder body that groove is arranged in by coil, the helicla flute of periphery, the slotted element of multiple tool
Etc., helical orbit can be multiple spiral, and helical orbit can be bending on the whole, because avoiding making as far as possible during Application Design
With flexible too strong material manufacture helical orbit;It should be noted that person trained in a certain field may attempt to design what some were wondered
Evading the application, but as long as track of its design contains helical orbit, and thread like body coordinates its track to define spiral shell to track
Rotation then should regard its track as helical orbit described herein;Because the change of pitch can affect the spiral shell of spiral overall length therefore the present invention
The spiral overall length change producing because of pitch change should be avoided during rotation orbit Design to weaken the spiral shell that screw diameter change produces as far as possible
The situation of rotation overall length change;In the case of ignoring thread like body completely, possibility is gone in judgement to vision to the helical orbit of the present invention up
It is not spiral type(The such as situation described in technology contents 6-8 is could visually to draw spiral shell after the winding of cooperation thread like body
Rotation shape), during the helical orbit design of the present invention, it is considered as spiral coil slip upwards in helical axis of helical orbit or thread like body
Problem, and be defined preventing by appropriate design and lead to because of the slip of spiral coil the product designed non-retractable
Situation.
' motion that helical orbit limits thread like body makes the motion of the particle on the spiral part of thread like body be mainly along spiral
Partial helix slides ' transport with radial direction because the athletic meeting of the particle on the spiral part of thread like body has micro turn
Dynamic, so using ' main ' one word to meet human language custom, ' main ' one word should not be considered as by the reader of the application
Fuzzy sets.
' a thread like body part is limited to spiral type by helical orbit ' contains thread like body in helical orbit interior volume, thread like body
Slidably cladding in rail solid exterior etc. can make thread like body be subject to the annexation that helical orbit constrains.
' driving body drives the screw diameter of helical orbit to stretch ' i.e. driving body drives the change of screw diameter.
' telescoping tube ' refers to the pipe that length can passively change.
' dimension shape spring ' refers to the spring for safeguarding telescoping tube profile, and its elastic force can not be too big.
' greatest length of thread like body ' refers to greatest length when thread like body can normally use, because some thread like bodies are long
Short variable, therefore have this restriction.
' spiral overall length ' i.e. spiral part expands into the length of straight line after straight line, namely the summation of each circumference of helical orbit.
' spiral ', the mankind do not have perfection accurately to define on spiral, and people even call spiral shell the camber line of a plurality of radial arrangement
Rotation, in order to ensure the clear of definition, the spiral of the present invention is defined in:At least there is the set of points of continuity of a complete not selfing convolution
Or the path of line-segment sets, wherein ' complete ' refer to convolution be more than or equal to 360 degree, such as spring, Archimedes spiral, electric magnet
Solenoid etc., helical axis can be straight line(When serpentine pipe is straight), curve(During serpentine pipe bending), spiral curve(Serpentine pipe is again
It is helix during secondary spiral), the spiral in the present invention includes helix(Axial multi-turn)Path, vortex filament(Radial multi-ring)Road
Footpath, taper helical path, variable-pitch propeller path, the road in reducing helical path, multilamellar helical path and other helical wire form
Footpath and combinations thereof, the spiral of the present invention there may be corner angle.
Beneficial effects of the present invention:Structure is simple, economical and practical.
