One, initial position (thickness that is held the clamping of arm group of output board 10 is minimum) starts, when output board 10 is subject to the pulling force/pressure of up/down, output board 10 is stable motion up or down under the effect of upright guide rail 11, movement along with output board 10, the thickness that is held the output board 10 of arm group clamping increases, due to, Compress Spring 7 is in its pre-compressed state, make camshaft bearing 9 surfaces on clamping limb remain and contact with the groove bottom of output board 10 grooves, therefore the increase of output board 10 thickness increases the pressure that output board 10 is subject to, be equivalent to improve the rigidity/power of output board 10 on its linear movement direction.Now, under the effect of horizontal guide rail 5, roller pedestal 8 moves laterally, and Compress Spring 7 is compressed, plays certain cushioning effect; When the external force being subject to when output board 10 reduces or cancels, spring is relaxed, and promotes roller pedestal 8 motion to the inside, and output board 10 is replied under the pressure of camshaft bearing 9, also plays certain cushioning effect.Difform progressive recesses can be set as required, to obtain different rigidity.
Two, by motor 2, drive adjusting screw, with driving spring pedestal slide block 6, along horizontal guide rail 5, move, compress/loosen Compress Spring 7, Compress Spring 7 compresses/loosens roller pedestal 8 and camshaft bearing 9, to change camshaft bearing 9, act on the pressure on output board 10, make the ratio of output board 10 output action power and displacement keep dynamic relationship, be mechanism's rigidity, so as to changing output board 10 in output rigidity/power scope of upright guide rail 11 directions, when output board 10 is subject to the pulling force/pressure of up/down, by compressing/loosen Compress Spring 7, change the rigidity/power of vertical direction.
Three,, by the different groove shapes of design, then by the pretension amount of adjusting screw regulating spring, realize the rigidity output of different range on output board 10 vertical directions.Can realize wider adjusting, also can realize more accurately and regulating.
According to actual needs, can provide the elastic parts of non-linear stiffness variable both can realize the unidirectional elastic parts that non-linear stiffness variable can be provided, also can realize the two-way elastic parts that non-linear stiffness variable can be provided.
In order to realize the accurate control to output board 10 rigidity, can determine as follows and control parameter (circular groove of only take describes as example, as shown in figure 14).
Output rigidity S can calculate by formula 1:
S = d F k dx = k [ - 1 + R - r + σ ( R + r ) 3 cos 3 α ] Formula 1
Wherein, k is spring global stiffness, and R is circular groove radius, and r is camshaft bearing 9 radiuses, and σ is amount of spring compression, and x is output board 10 displacements, and α is the angle between spring force and chucking power, and y is the displacement on camshaft bearing 9 vertical directions, and F is total spring force, F kcentered by power.
Wherein,
Under external force, output board 10 displacements are x, and angle α can calculate by formula 2 so,
α = sin - 1 ( x R - r ) Formula 2
The displacement y of camshaft bearing 9 in the vertical directions can calculate by formula 3,
Y=(R-r) (1-cos α) formula 3
Add the displacement that upper spring pedestal slide block 6 holddown springs produce, total spring force F can calculate by formula 4,
| F=k[(R-r) (1-cos α)+σ] formula 4
Central force F kcan calculate by formula 5:
F k=Ftan α=k[(R-r) (1-cos α)+σ] tan α formula 5
In the present embodiment, can provide each parameter of the elastic parts of non-linear stiffness variable to be chosen for: spring global stiffness k=70N/mm, circular groove radius R=170mm, camshaft bearing 9 radius r=8mm, spring maximum compressibility σ=6 π mm.
The elastic parts that non-linear stiffness variable can be provided of the present utility model, by adjustable clamp gripping member to being held the clamping force of part, make to be held part and on its linear movement direction, there is adjustable non-linear rigidity, and its range in stiffness not only can realize corresponding passive stiffness variation by difform seal face, can also by adjusting helicoidal gear, carry out certain active adjustment according to actual needs, obtain active stiffness and change; And the elastic parts that non-linear stiffness variable can be provided of the present utility model has advantages of that compact conformation, volume are small and exquisite, lightweight, easy for installation, reliable; The utility model is particularly useful for walking robot field, realize robot ambulation functional diversities, can avoid the collision of robot and circumstances not known, guaranteed the security that robot contacts with circumstances not known and the change stiffness characteristics of simulating human or animal's limbs simultaneously.
In the utility model, represent the up, down, left, right, before and after of direction etc., only for statement is convenient, the not restriction to practical structures.
Wherein, upper and lower, left and right refer under normality paper, and up and down, " front " refers to vertical paper direction outwardly, and " afterwards " refers to vertical paper direction inwardly.
