The main characteristic of the flexible joint that we want to measure is its bending stiffness \(k_{R_x} \approx k_{R_y}\).
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
To do so, a test bench is used.
|
|
Specifications of the test bench to precisely measure the bending stiffness are described in this section.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The basic idea is to measured the angular deflection of the flexible joint as a function of the applied torque.

<p>
|

The flexible joint used for the Nano-Hexapod is shown in Figure <a href="#orga662ff4">2</a>.
|
|
Its bending stiffness is foreseen to be \(k_{R_y}\approx 20\,\frac{Nm}{rad}\) and its stroke \(\theta_{y,\text{max}}\approx 20\,mrad\).

The height between the flexible point (center of the joint) and the point where external forces are applied is \(h = 20\,mm\).
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Let’s define the parameters on Matlab.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="org-src-container">
|
|
<pre class="src src-matlab">kRx = 20; <span class="org-comment">% Bending Stiffness [Nm/rad]</span>

<div id="outline-container-org57bd1c6" class="outline-3">
|
|
<h3 id="org57bd1c6"><span class="section-number-3">1.2</span> Required external applied force</h3>
|
|
<div class="outline-text-3" id="text-1-2">
|
|
<p>
|
|
The bending \(\theta_y\) of the flexible joint due to the force \(F_x\) is:
|
|
</p>
|
|
\begin{equation}
|
|
\theta_y = \frac{M_y}{k_{R_y}} = \frac{F_x h}{k_{R_y}}
|
|
\end{equation}
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Therefore, the applied force to test the full range of the flexible joint is:
|
|
</p>
|
|
\begin{equation}
|
|
F_{x,\text{max}} = \frac{k_{R_y} \theta_{y,\text{max}}}{h}
|
|
\end{equation}
|
|
|
|
<div class="org-src-container">
|
|
<pre class="src src-matlab">Fxmax = kRx<span class="org-type">*</span>Rxmax<span class="org-type">/</span>h; <span class="org-comment">% Force to induce maximum stroke [N]</span>
|
|
</pre>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
And we obtain:
|
|
</p>
|
|
\begin{equation} F_{max} = 20.0\, [N] \end{equation}
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The measurement range of the force sensor should then be higher than \(20\,N\).

|
|
<div class="outline-text-3" id="text-1-3">
|
|
<p>
|
|
The flexible joint is designed to allow a bending motion of \(\pm 20\,mrad\).
|
|
The corresponding actuator stroke to impose such motion is:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
\[ d_{x,\text{max}} = h \tan(R_{x,\text{max}}) \]
|

<div class="org-src-container">

</div>
|
|
|
|
\begin{equation} d_{max} = 0.4\, [mm] \end{equation}
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
In order to test the full range of the flexible joint, the stroke of the actuator should be higher than \(0.4\,mm\).
|
|
The measurement range of the displacement sensor should also be higher than \(0.4\,mm\).
|

<div id="outline-container-org334e651" class="outline-3">

<h3 id="org334e651"><span class="section-number-3">1.4</span> First try with the APA95ML</h3>
|
|
<div class="outline-text-3" id="text-1-4">
|
|
<p>
|
|
The APA95ML as a stroke of \(100\,\mu m\) and the encoder in parallel can easily measure the required stroke.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Suppose the full stroke of the APA can be used to bend the flexible joint (ideal case), the measured force will be:

\begin{equation} F_{max} = 5.0\, [N] \end{equation}
