Mechanism of Controllable Force Generated by Coupling Inverse Effect of Piezoelectricity and Magnetostriction

摘要

A method based on piezoelectric and magnetostrictive coupling inverse effect to generate precise controllable force is proposed to meet the requirement of manipulation force control in ultra-precision machining and assembly process. According to the principle of magnetic flux continuity, combine with the characteristics of piezoelectric and magnetostrictive inverse effects, the working mechanism of force generation is analyzed, and the theoretical model of the relationship between output force and parameters which include material characteristics, geometric parameters, working voltage of piezoelectric ceramics is established. An experimental device consisting of piezoelectric ceramic driving power supply, strain gauge, static strain tester, micro laser displacement sensor, force sensor, data acquisition card and magnetic force control component is developed. The relationship between output magnetic force and air gap or working voltage are studied by experiment and simulation. The results show that the output force variations of simulation and experiment are close. The output magnetic force fluctuation is small and with good stability. It verifies the consistency and correctness of the theoretical, simulation and experimental results.
