COMPACT PRECISION ANGULAR-DISPLACEMENT-LIMITING IMPACT-RESISTANT VIBRATION-ISOLATING BUFFERING PLATFORM FOR

COMPACT OPTOELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT

The present application claims the common filing date of Chinese patent or utility model applications Nr. 2019203869712, Nr. 2019102276697, Nr. 2019203824995, Nr. 2019102276201 , Nr. 201920382450X, Nr. 2019203824497 and Nr. 20192038181 19 that were filed with The National Intellectual Property Administration (CNIPA) on 25 March 2019. All relevant content and/or subject matter of the earlier priority patent or utility model applications is hereby incorporated by reference wherever relevant, possible and/or appropriate.

The application relates to the technical field of vibration-isolating buffering platform, in particular to a compact precision angular-displacement-limiting impact-resistant vibration-isolating buffering platform for optoelectronic equipment.

Currently, optoelectronic devices of measuring and controlling heading and attitude, such as inertial navigation devices, gyroscopes, radars, optical platforms, etc., are mainly installed rigidly installed on vehicles. In contrast, elastically installed optoelectronic devices are quite limited.

1. Rigid Installation

For some optoelectronic devices, rigid installation well maintains stability and reliability of initial calibration coordinates (Xo, Yo, Zo) for position, location or dimension, and pose parameters (Yc, Yz) for orientation. However, environmental adaptability of these photoelectric devices is relatively high. In particular, requirements for resisting severe impacts and strong vibrations are even higher. Sometimes, even if subjected to photoelectric performance and structural reinforcement, the optoelectronic devices still cannot meet the requirements for ordinary usage, which leads to a fact that qualified optoelectronic products are not available. In these cases, elastically supporting platforms have been used to isolate the severe impacts and strong vibration. 2. Existing Elastic Installation Platform

Existing elastic installation platforms must have the following functions:

(1 ) to effectively isolate vibration and impact to the photoelectric devices of measuring and controlling heading and attitude;

(2) to ensure that the platform can only have free linear displacements along X, Y and Z axes, but does not allow any micro-angular-displacement beyond a specified accuracy, when the optoelectronic devices are working,

Currently, there are two types of micro-angular-displacement elastic supporting platforms commonly used: the first type is "a high-precision impact isolator" having an optoelectronic device compensation for an error of angular-displacement, and its patent application publication number is CN 105020329 A; the second type is a six-link impact isolator disclosed in the "Design of Shipborne Laser Inertial System Impact Isolator" which has no optoelectronic single device compensation for an error of angular-displacement.

A same mechanical principle is applied to the two micro-angular-displacement elastic supporting platforms above, and each supporting rod adopts a spring-dampened form. For each platform, twelve hinge points are arranged on an upper mounting base and a lower mounting base, respectively.

Since the supporting rod is in the spring-dampened form, during the severe impact process, the upper mounting base and the lower mounting base cannot be kept parallel, and angular-displacement is also not limited. Therefore, relative displacements may occur in six degrees of freedom during the impact process; and the optoelectronic device may lose its target. The upper and lower mounting bases are brought to a stationary state only under action of a spring-dampening force. Reset time is defined as a time span from start of the impact to returning to the stationary state. The reset time disclosed is 0.5 second, in which the optoelectronic device cannot work properly. Obviously, an error of relative angular-displacement (Yc, Yz) of the upper and lower mounting bases in the stationary state is defined as "reset accuracy" of the optoelectronic device. The former has a reset accuracy of 1 angular minute (T) disclosed in a patent document; the latter has a theoretical dynamic accuracy of 33 angular seconds (33”) disclosed in a paper.

The above elastic installation has the following characteristics:

(1 ) A dampening force has a prominent influence on the reset time and reset accuracy.

(a) Since the dampening force is small, the reset time is long (>0.5 second);

(b) If the dampening force is large, an error is large for the upper and lower mounting platforms to return to a relevant equilibrium state during the resetting; and the reset time is short, but the reset accuracy is poor.

(2) An eccentricity of the device influences the elastic properties of the elastic supporting rod.

When center of gravity of the device is eccentric on the upper mounting surface, distribution and adjustment of the spring stiffness and the dampening force in the six supporting rods are difficult, and decoupling design of the vibration-isolating buffering system is not easily realized.

(3) Liquid dampening is superior to dry friction dampening.

Since liquid dampening force is proportional to speed change; therefore, when the liquid dampening is adopted for the severe impact, the larger the transient speed change AV is, the larger the dampening force would be. During recovery after the impact, the speed is low, the dampening force is small, the reset time is short, and optoelectronic compensation is also used in the impact and reset process, so the scheme above has a high precision of directivity.

However, it must be pointed out that the optoelectronic compensation instrument installed on the lower mounting base must be able to directly withstand a severe impact environment; otherwise the optoelectronic compensation would not be effective.

The reason is that the elastic dampening characteristics are difficult to optimize according to three-axis vibration-isolating buffering performance requirements and reset function requirements, respectively.

For optoelectronic devices that require a precision angular-displacement-limiting function, a platform comprising an angular-displacement-limiting assembly and a vibration-isolating dampening assembly is provided. Such platform can effectively isolate strong external vibration impact, and also limit the angular-displacement during and after the impact, and thus ensure precise positioning accuracy and working reliability of the optoelectronic equipment.

In order to solve the problems in prior arts, the present application provides a compacted precision angular-displacement-limit impact-resistant vibration-isolating buffering platform, which can effectively isolate and dampen severe impacts and intense vibration environment to optoelectronic equipment to ensure that the optoelectronic device works in an excellent vibration and impact environment for reliable operation, thereby improving the reliability and long service life of the optoelectronic device.

Further improvements include: the precision angular-displacement-limiting assembly comprises a three-dimensional linear rolling guiding rail of a cross-shaped sliding rail type, and the precision angular-displacement-limiting assembly forms a “Tic-Tac-Toe”-like (also known as a pattern similar to “#”) hollow structure; the three-dimensional linear rolling guiding rail of a cross-shaped sliding rail type comprises an X-axis sliding rest, an XY-axis two-dimensional cross-shaped sliding rail, a YZ-axis integrated two-dimensional sliding rest and a Z-axis sliding rest; an upper portion of the X-axis sliding rest is coupled to the optoelectronic equipment mounting plate, a lower portion of the X-axis sliding rest is coupled to an X-axis sliding rail of the XY-axis two-dimensional cross-shaped sliding rail and slides along an X-axis linearly; the YZ-axis integrated two-dimensional sliding rest comprises a Y-axis sliding rest and at least one Z-axis sliding rail rigidly connected to the Y-axis sliding rest, wherein the Y-axis sliding rest is coupled to a Y-axis sliding rail of the XY-axis two-dimensional cross-shaped sliding rail and slides along a Y-axis; and the Z-axis sliding rest is connected to the at least one Z-axis sliding rail and slides along a Z-axis linearly.

A stiffener is provided between the X-axis sliding rail and the Y-axis sliding rail of the Y-axis two-dimensional cross-shaped sliding rail, the stiffener has a straight polygon shape, a curved polygon or a combination thereof; the Z-axis sliding rest has a linear sliding bearing, the Z-axis sliding rail has steel balls and a sliding way, the steel ball and the sliding way has a contact area and the contact area has a cylindrical profile, a double-V profile, or a spline profile; and a groove is provided on a top end surface of the X-axis sliding rest.

The compacted precision angular-displacement-limiting impact-resistant vibration-isolating buffering platform for optoelectronic equipment of the subject application firstly installs the angular-displacement-limiting assembly between the optoelectronic equipment mounting plate and the bottom mounting plate, and makes the three-axis to freely slide. The horizontal axial vibration-isolating buffering device fixed to the optoelectronic equipment mounting plate and the vertical vibration-isolating buffering device fixed to the bottom plate are then connected via a bearing shaft.

The beneficial effects of the application include:

1. Since the angular-displacement-limiting assembly of the application satisfies a requirement of angular displacement precision of the optoelectronic device and also bears a certain moment of inertia, the vibration-isolating buffering assembly is used

F M

to bear impact dynamic load and moment of inertia applied to the angular-displacement-limiting assembly, which ensures that the angular-displacement-limiting assembly is in a state of low impact dynamic load and low impact moment of inertia M which further ensures that stability and service life of the limiting accuracy of the angular-displacement-limiting assembly.

2. Since the application adopts combination of the vibration-isolating buffering, vibration-isolating and buffering can be effectively performed to the optoelectronic equipment in the severe impact and the strong vibration environment, thereby ensuring that the optoelectronic equipment works in an excellent vibration and impact environment for reliable operation, and further improving reliability and long service life of optoelectronic equipment.

3. Lower down reinforcement requirements for the optoelectronic device.

4. It provides technical support for transplanting optoelectronic devices that have statically worked on a fixed land basis to various types of carriers (ships, aircraft, rockets, missiles). The optoelectronic equipment is fixed on the optoelectronic equipment mounting plate; the bottom mounting plate is fixed to the carriers on which the compact precision angular-displacement-limiting impact-resistant vibration-isolating buffering platform is mounted. The compact precision angular-displacement-limiting impact-resistant vibration-isolating buffering platform and the carrier are always kept in a three-dimensional linear translational motion, so that the optoelectronic equipment is always in an excellent vibration impact environment for the optoelectronic equipment to work reliably, and thus enhancing working reliability and long service life of the optoelectronic equipment. For example, optoelectronic devices such as navigators, theodolites, and laser devices in various types of carriers are usually connected to a rigid connection platform that is not protected by a vibration-isolating buffering system. The optoelectronic devices have to withstand severe impact and strong vibration environment together with the rigid platform, and thus need to fully reinforce their structures and the optoelectronic system, which in turn leads to an increase in overall weight and cost. In contrast, the subject application discloses the angular-displacement-limiting vibration-isolating buffering platform on which structure of the optoelectronic equipment only needs to be properly reinforced, thereby reducing the overall weight and meanwhile reducing the cost.

5. The precision angular-displacement-limiting assembly has two sliding rails, i.e. a vertical sliding rail and a horizontal sliding rail. In a coordinate XOY (a Cartesian coordinate system in two dimensions, also called a rectangular coordinate system or an orthogonal coordinate system), the horizontal sliding rail is arranged at an angle of 45 degrees (45°) to the directions of impact force ¾ and for reducing the impact force in the vertical sliding rail, so that the rail combination may be selected to bear less impact force and have lighter weight.

6. The angular-displacement-limiting assembly comprises the three-dimensional linear rolling guiding rail of a cross-shaped sliding rail type; the X-axis sliding rest connected to the optoelectronic equipment have a screw set of rectangular distribution, which has a large installation joint area. After assembled with the optoelectronic equipment mounting plate, a precision positioning pin may be used to cure and adjust installation accuracy. The XY-axis two-dimensional cross-shaped sliding rail has an integrated structure without a single screw, and thus can be reinforced with stiffener according to the requirements of resisting large impact inertia moment for greatly improving structural strength, stiffness, and stability of directional accuracy. The Y-axis sliding rest and the Z-axis sliding rail has an integrated structure. Since the Y-axis sliding rest has a large bottom area, strength and stiffness of connection between the Y-axis sliding rest and the Z-axis sliding rail is enhanced, which effectively ensures pointing accuracy and stability.

A straight reed 37 and a curved reed 38 are riveted into a unitary piece by a lower end of the reed group via a cushion sleeve 35 and a lower ring 36, and is further connected to the bottom plate 8 via the cushion sleeve 35; and an upper end is passed through a split ring 39 and a cone ring 40 and pressed tightly against the outer casing 7 and the retaining ring 16.

As shown in Figure 3, the horizontal axial vibration-isolating buffering device 4 comprises a sleeve 29 and a housing 23; and a horizontal friction plate 28, an upper planar spring 27, an isolation ring 25 with a horizontal cushion 26 embedded inside, and a lower planar spring 24 are disposed from the top to the bottom between the sleeve 29 and the housing 23 from top to bottom. A space for vibration is left between the horizontal cushion 26 and the and the sleeve 29.

An outer cylindrical surface of the housing 23 has a thread to be connected to the optoelectronic equipment mounting plate 5. A bearing shaft is passed through the sleeve 29 and connected to vertical vibration-isolating buffering device 2 via a thread.

As shown in Figure 4, the precision angular-displacement-limiting assembly 3 comprises a horizontal-plane angular-displacement-limiting assembly 3, a middle plate 32 and a vertical angular-displacement-limiting assembly 3 which are configured to form a“Tic-Tac-Toe”-like (also known as a pattern similar to“#”) hollow structure. A vertical rail has two arrangements, i.e. an upper position (Figure 5) and a lower position (Figure 4). An example of the lower position is shown in Figure 4.

The horizontal-plane angular-displacement-limiting assembly 3 comprises four two-dimensional sliding rests 33, and each of four two-dimensional sliding rests 33 further comprises two sliding chutes, i.e. a vertical sliding chute and a horizontal sliding chute. A hollow“Tic-Tac-Toe”-like (also known as a pattern similar to“#”) structure formed by a one-dimensional linear sliding rail 34 is inserted into each of the two sliding chute. The one-dimensional linear sliding rail 34 at a top position is connected to the optoelectronic equipment mounting plate 5; and the one-dimensional linear sliding rail 34 at a bottom position is connected to the middle plate 32.

The vertical angular-displacement-limiting assembly 3 comprises four vertical sliding rails 31 and four vertical sliding rests 30, wherein the vertical sliding rails 31 are orthogonally connected to the middle plate 32, and the vertical sliding rests 30 are orthogonally connected to the bottom mounting plate 1 , the vertical sliding rails 31 are movably connected to the vertical sliding rests 30 by being inserted into the vertical sliding rests 30.

A vertical angular-displacement-limiting assembly, the vertical sliding rail 31 is only connected with the optoelectronic equipment mounting plate for mounting the optoelectronic equipment 6 and the bottom mounting plate which is connected to a carrier. The structure is compacted, and many connecting pieces for one-dimensional guiding rail structure and many screws are thus avoided; and the structure has an excellent rigidity.; and the angular-displacement-limiting function is also stable and reliable.

The upper position or the lower position of the vertical rail is determined by value of vertical impact acceleration z o , and value of horizontal acceleration ( x ^ y o ).

(1 ) When z o <( x o ^ y o ), in order to reduce the horizontal impact acceleration to the vertical rail, after vertical buffering action of the vertical vibration-isolating buffering device , the upper position of the vertical rail is selected [Figure 4]

(2) When z o >( x o ^ y o ), in order to reduce the vertical impact acceleration to the horizontal rail, after vertical buffering action of the vertical vibration-isolating buffering device, the lower position of the vertical rail is selected [Figure 5].

(3) In order to further reduce the horizontal impact acceleration ( x each horizontal rail, direction of the impact force may be arranged at an angle of 45 degrees (45°) to coordinate axis of the horizontal rail. Therefore, a force applied to each horizontal rail is F, and the horizontal axial vibration-isolating buffering device and equipment only is only subjected to a remaining impact response acceleration after the buffering action of a horizontal buffering device.

As shown in Figures 6 & 7, in order to reduce the horizontal impact acceleration to the horizontal rail, the horizontal rail may be arranged at an offset of an angle of 45 degrees (45°) to heading X-axis. In this case, the X-axis or the Y-axis are respectively subjected to maximum value of the impact acceleration peak a x o or a y o, while assuming Fx=ma x , Fy=ma y , where: a x , a y represent strong impact acceleration along the x-axis and the y-axis, respectively; and m represents an average mass of electronic devices, the upper mounting plate and the angular-displacement-limiting assembly 3.

The horizontal rail is subjected to a force Fx' in the X'-axis direction and a force Fy' in the Y'-axis direction. Since guiding rails of the horizontal rail in the x-axis direction and the y-axis direction are respectively in X'iO'Y'i and X"20"Y"2 platforms. In this case, no matter the strong impact is applied to the x-axis direction or the y-axis direction, conclusion is established as Fx=ma x =Fxi'+Fyi" (see Figure 6), Fy=ma y =Fx2'+Fy2" (see Figure 7).

Since the guiding rails in both directions are simultaneously subjected to load of the impact regardless of the strong impact applied in the x-axis direction or the y-axis direction, the force applied to the guiding rail in each direction is only Ϊ 12 times of the load of the impact in the direction. Therefore, service life and reliability of the Z-axis sliding rail are enhanced.

To further improve: the precision angular-displacement-limiting assembly 3 comprises a three-dimensional linear rolling guiding rail of a cross-shaped sliding rail type, and the precision angular-displacement-limiting assembly 3 forms a“Tic-Tac-Toe”-like (also known as a pattern similar to“#”) hollow structure; structure of the three-dimensional linear rolling guiding rail of a cross-shaped sliding rail type is shown in Figure 8, Figure 9 and Figure 10, which comprises an X-axis sliding rest 41 , an XY-axis two-dimensional cross-shaped sliding rail 42, a YZ-axis integrated two-dimensional sliding rest 43 and a Z-axis sliding rest 44. An upper portion of the X-axis sliding rest 41 is coupled to the optoelectronic equipment mounting plate 5, a lower portion of the X-axis sliding rest 41 is coupled to an X-axis sliding rail of the XY-axis two-dimensional cross-shaped sliding rail 42 and slides along an X-axis linearly; the YZ-axis integrated two-dimensional sliding rest 43 comprises a Y-axis sliding rest and at least one Z-axis sliding rail rigidly connected to the Y-axis sliding rest, wherein the Y-axis sliding rest is coupled to a Y-axis sliding rail of the XY-axis two-dimensional cross-shaped sliding rail 42 and slides along a Y-axis; and the Z-axis sliding rest 44 is connected to the Z-axis sliding rail and slides along a Z-axis linearly.

As shown in Figure 13, the YZ-axis integrated two-dimensional sliding rest 43 comprises a Y-axis sliding rest and a Z-axis sliding rail rigidly connected to the Y-axis sliding rest, both of which construct a T-shaped two-dimensional structure. Alternatively, the Y-axis sliding rest and the Z-axis sliding rest 44 construct a cross-shaped sliding rest two-dimensional structure.

As shown in Figure 12, a stiffener is provided between the X-axis sliding rail and the Y-axis sliding rail of the Y-axis two-dimensional cross-shaped sliding rail 44; and the stiffener has a straight polygon shape, a curved polygon shape or a combination of the straight polygon shape and the curved polygon shape.

The Z-axis sliding rest 44 has a linear sliding bearing, and the linear sliding bearing has steel balls and a sliding way, the steel ball and the sliding way has a contact area and the contact area has a cylindrical profile, a double-V profile, or a spline profile

The X-axis sliding rest 41 is shown in Figure 1 1 . The X-axis sliding rail is replaced by the X-axis sliding rest 41 ; X-axis sliding rest 41 is connected to a square-shaped screw hole of the optoelectronic equipment mounting plate 5 for enhancing ability to resist moment of inertia from the Y-axis direction. A groove is provided on a top end surface of the X-axis sliding rest 41 for saving material. The present application may have many specific embodiments, and only best modes are described in the above for the present application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art may make some improvements without departing from the principle of the present application. Improvements should also be considered within protection scope of the present application.
