Detailed Description
The invention relates to a bidirectional displacement accumulation piezoelectric stack actuator capable of bearing tension and pressure and a method thereof.
The invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
as shown in fig. 1 and 2, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a bi-directional displacement-accumulating piezo stack actuator capable of withstanding a pulling pressure is provided, and its basic structure includes a housing assembly 1, and a motor assembly 2, two elastic connectors 3, a first drive nut 4a, a second drive nut 4b, a first piezo stack assembly 5, a second piezo stack assembly 6, and a screw assembly 7 coaxially disposed in an inner cavity of the housing assembly 1, wherein central axes of the motor assembly 2, the two elastic connectors 3, the first drive nut 4a, the second drive nut 4b, the first piezo stack assembly 5, the second piezo stack assembly 6, and the screw assembly 7 coincide with a central axis of the housing assembly 1. Referring to fig. 2, the motor assembly 2 is fixed in the middle of the inner cavity of the housing assembly 1, the first driving nut 4a and the second driving nut 4b are respectively disposed on two sides of the motor assembly 2, and the first driving nut 4a and the second driving nut 4b are respectively connected to the motor assembly 2 through an elastic connector 3. The position of the motor assembly 2 in the housing assembly 1 is relatively fixed, and when the housing assembly 1 is in operation, the first drive nut 4a and the second drive nut 4b can be driven to rotate around the axis in a bidirectional manner through the elastic connector 3, wherein the bidirectional drive means that the motor assembly can drive forward rotation and reverse rotation, and the specific drive direction of the motor assembly can be set through an external motor controller. The elastic connector 3 is a connector which has certain elasticity and can be reversibly deformed under the action of external force, and the elasticity is mainly reflected in the twisting direction. Specifically, each of the resilient connectors 3 has its own degree of freedom of expansion and contraction in the axial direction, so that the first and second drive nuts 4a, 4b can move axially relative to the motor assembly 2 to a certain extent, but remain in connected engagement with the motor assembly 2 at all times. When the drive nut (the first drive nut 4a or the second drive nut 4 b) to which each elastic connector 3 is connected is not restricted from rotating about the axis, the motor assembly 2 can freely drive the connected drive nut to rotate, but when the drive nut (the first drive nut 4a or the second drive nut 4 b) to which each elastic connector 3 is connected is restricted from rotating about the axis while the motor assembly 2 continues to drive, the elastic connector 3 needs to have a corresponding elastic deformation capability, i.e., it should have an elastic deformation margin in the twisting direction so that it can be reversibly twisted circumferentially. It is noted that this twisting needs to be reversible, i.e. the energy accumulated by the deformation should be released when the external force is removed, so that the elastic connector 3 is restored to its original shape.
In addition, in this embodiment, two piezoelectric stack assemblies are respectively disposed at the upper end and the lower end of the piezoelectric actuator, so as to be capable of receiving both a compressive load and a tensile load, and one end of each of the two piezoelectric stack assemblies needs to be kept fixed. Wherein, the one end of first piezo-stack subassembly 5 is fixed in on the one side end wall of shell subassembly 1 inner chamber, and the other end terminal surface is as receiving the surface with first drive nut 4a complex, and first drive nut 4a can support and exert the effort to first piezo-stack subassembly 5 on receiving the surface to cause the inverse piezoelectric effect to warp. Similarly, one end of the second piezo-stack assembly 6 is fixed on the other end wall of the inner cavity of the housing assembly 1, the other end face is used as a pressed face matched with the second driving nut 4b, and the second driving nut 4b can abut against the pressed face to exert an acting force on the second piezo-stack assembly 6, so that the inverse piezo-electric effect is caused to deform.
External load in the bidirectional displacement accumulation piezoelectric stack actuator is transmitted through the screw component 7, and displacement is output outwards through the screw component 7, so that the actuating function is realized. The second piezo-stack assembly 6, the second driving nut 4b, the first elastic connector 3, the through motor assembly 2, the second elastic connector 3, the first driving nut 4a and the first piezo-stack assembly 5 are all designed to be hollow inside and are connected in sequence to form a through central passage. The screw assembly 7 is placed in the central channel in the inner cavity of the shell assembly 1, one end of the screw assembly is used as a displacement output end and extends out of the top of the shell assembly 1, the other end of the screw assembly is limited in the axial movement range by a group of limiting assemblies in the inner cavity of the second piezoelectric stack assembly 6, and the screw assembly 7 does not have the freedom of circumferential rotation around the axis. The middle part of the screw rod component 7 is an external thread section, and the first driving nut 4a and the second driving nut 4b are respectively matched with the external thread section to form a thread pair. Since the screw assembly 7 is restricted by other members and therefore does not have a degree of freedom of circumferential rotation about the axis, it is possible to smoothly slide up and down the thread on the male thread section of the screw assembly 7 when the first drive nut 4a and the second drive nut 4b are driven by the motor assembly 2.
For the bidirectional displacement accumulation piezoelectric stack actuator, the bidirectional displacement accumulation piezoelectric stack actuator can be subjected to pressure to realize bidirectional actuation and can also be subjected to tension to realize bidirectional actuation. When the pressure is applied to the displacement output end of the screw component 7, the first piezoelectric stack component 5 pushes the screw component 7 to move axially through inverse piezoelectric effect deformation, and then the motor component 2 drives the first driving nut 4a and the second driving nut 4b to operate, so that the positions of the first driving nut 4a and the second driving nut 4b are restored and repeated continuously, and the displacement accumulation of the screw component 7 is realized; when the displacement output end of the screw component 7 is under the action of tensile force, the second piezoelectric stack component 6 pushes the screw component 7 to move axially through inverse piezoelectric effect deformation, and then the motor component 2 drives the first driving nut 4a and the second driving nut 4b to operate, so that the positions of the first driving nut 4a and the second driving nut 4b are recovered, and the displacement accumulation of the screw component 7 is realized repeatedly. The displacement accumulation means that the displacements of the screw assembly 7 in different operation cycles are accumulated continuously, so that an increasing displacement stroke is output outwards.
The basic operating principle of the bi-directional displacement accumulation piezoelectric stack actuator capable of withstanding tensile and compressive forces according to the present invention is described above, and the following detailed description is provided for the implementation of each basic structure of the actuator in a preferred embodiment of the present invention. For convenience of description, the present invention will be described hereinafter with reference to the displacement output end of the screw assembly 7 as the upper end on one side and the lower end on the other side.

The limiting components are two limiting blocks 18, two spaced limiting holes 113 are formed in the hollow shaft section on the lower bottom cover 11, and a limiting block 18 for limiting the axial movement range of the screw component 7 is arranged in each limiting hole 113 in an interference mode.
