Six-freedom-degree movement device based on Stewart parallel mechanism and telescopic mechanism thereof
Technical Field
The utility model relates to a multi freedom precision adjustment technical field specifically relates to a telescopic machanism and six degrees of freedom telecontrol equipment based on Stewart (Stewart) parallel mechanism.
Background
The multi-degree-of-freedom precision adjustment technology is widely applied to various fields. The adjusting mechanism is generally divided into a series adjusting mechanism and a parallel adjusting mechanism, the traditional adjusting mechanism is mainly the series adjusting mechanism, although the series adjusting mechanism has the advantages of large working space, flexible operation and the like, the technical defects of weak load bearing capacity, low positioning accuracy, easy accumulation of errors of various axes and the like exist, and when an adjusted element exceeds a certain weight in practical application, the traditional series adjusting mechanism cannot meet the requirements of load and adjusting accuracy.
The six-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism based on Stewart is widely applied to various industries by virtue of the advantages of large rigidity, compact structure, strong bearing capacity, small accumulated error, high response speed, easiness in realizing multi-axis coupling motion and the like, for example: various training simulators, industrial six-axis linkage machine tools, industrial robots and the like.
However, the telescopic rod of the existing Stewart six-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism mainly adopts a traditional linear driving mechanism to realize that the linear driving mechanism comprises a motor, a speed reducer, a coupler, a lead screw, a guide rail and other components, and has the defects of various transmission components, complex structure, large accumulated error and direct influence on the precision of a platform. For example, in chinese patent CN1730235A and US patent US6320372, a structure form of motor + screw transmission is proposed, in which a screw is driven to rotate by the rotation of a motor to drive a nut to make a linear motion, so that a telescopic rod makes a telescopic motion. The utility model discloses a though simple structure is reliable, nevertheless compare and directly drive the mode and compare, transmission efficiency and response speed etc. all remain to improve.
In order to solve the problems of more transmission links, poor transmission precision and poor structural rigidity in the prior art, chinese patent CN106891322 proposes a structural form of piezoelectric motor + ball spline transmission, and the piezoelectric motor directly drives the wire ball spline shaft, thereby realizing the telescopic motion of the telescopic rod. The utility model discloses a although it is many to have solved the transmission link among the prior art, the poor scheduling problem of rigidity, but the stroke of whole six parallel structure's moving part is on the small side, and piezoelectric motor's control is comparatively complicated, and the cost is higher.

Referring to fig. 1-5, a telescoping mechanism 1 is described, the telescoping mechanism 1 may include a voice coil motor 11, a motor mount 12, and a guide 13. The motor mounting seat is cylindrical, one end of the motor mounting seat is open, and the other end of the motor mounting seat is a closed end. The voice coil motor 11 is fixedly installed in the motor mount 12. Specifically, the stator of the voice coil motor 11 is fixedly installed in the cylinder of the motor mounting base, and the mover is movable up and down relative to the base. The structure of the voice coil motor 11 is well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described here. The voice coil motor 11 may be any suitable voice coil motor known or to be developed.
The guide 13 includes a guide sleeve 131 and a guide post 132, and the guide post 132 is slidably engaged in the guide sleeve 131 up and down. Wherein, a plurality of rolling elements 133 are arranged between the guide sleeve 131 and the guide post 132. The rolling members 133 may improve the guiding stiffness. The lower end of the guide sleeve 131 and the lower end of the guide post 132 are fixedly connected to the guide device mounting base 14 and the mover of the voice coil motor 11, respectively. Therefore, the guide post 132 can perform a telescopic motion relative to the guide sleeve 131 under the driving of the voice coil motor 11.
The cross section of the guide post 132 may be circular or polygonal, etc. In this embodiment, the guide 13 is a four-sided guide, as shown in fig. 4 and 5. That is, the cross section of the guide post 132 is octagonal, with four long sides alternating with four short sides; the rolling elements 133 are mounted on four sides, the rolling elements 133 of each side being arranged in axial direction, preferably uniformly in axial direction. The rolling elements 133 may be needles, rollers, balls, or the like. It should be understood that the guide 13 may be a six-sided or eight-sided or even-sided guide.
In this embodiment, the guiding device 13 is further provided with a sleeve 134, and the sleeve 134 is fixedly sleeved on the guide post 132 and provided with a mounting groove (not shown) for mounting the rolling member 133.
Compared with the existing telescopic mechanism, the telescopic mechanism 1 has few parts and relatively simple structure, adopts the voice coil motor as power, has low cost and simple control compared with a piezoelectric motor, and can improve the guiding rigidity and ensure the movement precision of the telescopic mechanism by adopting the guiding device 13.
To facilitate the application of the telescopic mechanism 1, the telescopic mechanism 1 may further comprise a guide mount 14, an upper end mount 15 and a lower end mount 16. The guide mounting seat 14 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the motor mounting seat 12, for example, by a screw connection, a snap connection, or a welding connection. The guide 13 is fixedly mounted in a guide mount 14. Specifically, the lower end of the guide sleeve 131 is formed with a mounting flange 1311, the mounting flange 1311 is provided with a plurality of screw holes, and the guide sleeve 131 is fixedly mounted in the guide device mounting seat 14 through the mounting flange 1311 and corresponding screws (not shown). The upper end mount 15 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the guide post (e.g., by a screw 17) and movably sleeved on the guide mount 14. Thus, the upper end mount 15 can move telescopically relative to the guide mount 14. The lower end mount 16 is fixedly coupled to the lower end of the motor mount 12 (e.g., via screws (not shown)).
In the embodiment shown, the upper end mount 15 and the lower end mount 16 are each provided with a yoke-shaped connection 151 and 161, the connection 151 and 161 being intended for fitting and fixing with a cross-pin of a hooke joint (indicated by reference numeral 4 in fig. 6). It should be understood that the connecting portions 151 and 161 may be part of the upper and lower end mounts 15 and 16 or may be separate components secured to the upper and lower end mounts 15 and 16.
In some embodiments, the lower base 16 may be omitted, and the connecting portion 161 is directly disposed on the lower end of the motor mounting base 12.
Furthermore, in order to accurately control the stroke of the telescopic mechanism, a sensor (not shown) for measuring the stroke of the telescopic mechanism 1 is mounted on the guide mounting 14.
Referring to fig. 6, a six-degree-of-freedom motion device based on a Stewart parallel mechanism is described, and the six-degree-of-freedom motion device can comprise six telescopic mechanisms 1, a motion platform 2, a base 3 and twelve hooke joints 4. The hooke's joints 4 are fixedly mounted (e.g., by welding or screws, etc.) on the lower and upper surfaces of the motion platform 2 and the base 3. The moving platform 2 and the base 3 are respectively hinged with the upper end and the lower end of the telescopic mechanism 1 through corresponding Hooke joints 4. Therefore, the motion of the motion platform 2 in six degrees of freedom in space is realized through the telescopic motion of the six telescopic mechanisms 1. Because the telescopic mechanism 1 has the advantages of low cost and high motion precision, the six-degree-of-freedom motion device also has the advantages of low cost and high motion precision.
In the embodiment shown, six telescopic mechanisms 1 form three regular triangles and three inverted triangles alternating with each other. The arrangement mode enables the motion platform 2 of the six-degree-of-freedom motion device to have the advantages of good balance and stability, and further improves the motion precision of the motion platform.
