In this embodiment, the length and width of the rectangular plate vary depending on the application and the size of the displacement model being measured.
The present invention will be described in detail with reference to specific examples.
The technical scheme adopted by the invention is a method for combining mechanical structure displacement amplification and displacement detection, which is mainly divided into three parts:
the mechanism is a compliant mechanism, and is different from a traditional mechanism in a mode of transferring motion, force and energy, and the compliant mechanism is realized by elastic deformation of a structural member per se. The design steps are as follows:
1. optimization model preparation
The optimized geometric model adopts rectangular plates with the length and the width of a and b respectively (a and b are given according to the application occasion of the sensor and the size of the measured displacement model), a finite element grid is divided, and the divided grid is modeled by adopting an SIMP method as follows:
find(x1,x2,...,xn)
min uout/uin
s.t.V/V0=f
in the formula: x is the number ofn(n-1, 2, …, n) is the cell density of the design region, uoutTo accommodate the displacement of the mechanism output, uinFor the displacement of the input end of the compliant mechanism, v is the current volume of the design area, v0To design the initial volume of the region, f is the volume fraction of material allowed to remain.
2. Optimizing calculations
And (3) performing optimization iteration on the model by using an OC algorithm to obtain the compliant mechanism with the maximized reverse gain, and extracting the optimized model to obtain the compliant mechanism shown in 1 in figure 1. The mechanism consists of single parts, and has a certain gain relation between the displacement input end and the displacement output end, so that the design has the advantages that the movement of the compliant mechanism is free from lubrication, meanwhile, the error caused by the installation and positioning clearance is avoided, the transmission efficiency and precision of the displacement from the input end to the output end are greatly improved, and the guarantee is provided for the measurement of the micro-nano displacement;
and secondly, displacement measurement, namely, a metal sheet is adhered to the tail end of the compliant mechanism, the movement mode of the metal sheet is the same as that of the output end under the action of input, the metal sheet is used as a movement electrode of the capacitor, and the movement electrode, a fixed electrode (a first electrode and a second electrode which are respectively arranged above and below the left end of the movement electrode) and the fixed electrode (a third electrode and a fourth electrode which are respectively arranged above and below the right end of the movement electrode) jointly form two groups of differential capacitors. The four fixed electrodes and the moving electrode 5 are led out of the sensor through leads and are connected to an external signal processing module;
and thirdly, an external signal processing module: the module is mainly used for detecting the change condition of two groups of differential capacitance voltage signals, converting the signals into the magnitude of input end displacement through analysis and processing, displaying the magnitude of the input end displacement, and meanwhile, further transmitting the signals into a control system so as to be convenient for controlling the input displacement. The signal processing process comprises the following steps:
when the capacitive sensor is used
rAnd S is constant, and the distance between two polar plates is d
0Then, the initial capacitance C of the capacitor is known
0Comprises the following steps:
when the displacement of the input end of the compliance mechanism changes and causes the displacement of the output end to change, the plate distance between two polar plates of the capacitor changes and causes the capacitance change, and the total capacitance C of the capacitor after the change is as follows:
two groups of differential capacitors are formed by the moving electrode 5, the fixed electrodes (the first electrode and the second electrode which are respectively arranged above and below the left end of the moving electrode) and the fixed electrodes (the third electrode and the fourth electrode which are respectively arranged above and below the right end of the moving electrode), and then the differential capacitors are developed by the above formula, and the relation between the capacitance change under the differential capacitors and the distance change between the capacitor electrodes is obtained as follows:
because two groups of differential capacitors are arranged, the distance variation delta d between two electrodes can be obtained through calculation respectively, and the average value of the distance variation delta d and the distance variation delta d is taken as the displacement variation of the output end of the compliance mechanism so as to reduce errors. The magnitude of the input end displacement, i.e., the magnitude of the measured displacement, can be obtained by calculating the magnitude of the average displacement by the inverse gain coefficient of the compliant mechanism.
The sensor is adopted to measure the micro-nano displacement, and has certain guiding significance for designing a precise positioning mechanism with a specific motion mode; the compliant mechanism obtained by the design method is integrally processed and manufactured with the sensor shell, and four fixed electrodes are integrally manufactured together, so that the connection among all parts of the sensor is ensured by the integrated processing and manufacturing, no mounting gap exists, the integral precision is improved, and the sensor shell is of a thin film type structure at the input displacement end of the compliant mechanism and is used for realizing the input of the measured displacement; leading out wires from five electrodes in the sensor respectively, and connecting the wires with an external data processing module to realize the acquisition of displacement data; during displacement measurement, the sensor needs to be properly mounted to realize the input of the measured displacement acting on the membrane in the displacement direction.
