专利说明:
The invention relates to instrumentation, in particular to the construction of a three-axis compensation accelerometer with electrostatic inverse force transducers and a suspension of a sensitive element (inertial mass). The aim of the invention is to increase the upper limit of the range of measured accelerations. FIG. 1 shows the proposed accelerometer, a general view; figure 2 - the first version of the design of the sensitive element of the accelerometer; in fig. 3 - the same, the second option; in fig. 4 is a cross section of an accelerometer with a phousness of XOZ (Fig. 1); in fig. 5 - the same, the plane YOZ (Fig. 1); in fig. 6 - view of the electrode plate; in fig. 7 is an electrical block diagram of one accelerometer compensation circuit. The three-axis electrostatic accelerometer consists of a case and a sensitive element (inertial mass) located in the case with the possibility of movement relative to it. Sensitive element The accelerometer has two types of con-30 between the respective body electrodes 2130 and the inertial mass. To reduce the thermal sensitivity of the accelerometer, the crossmembers 14-19 are made of a material of inertial mass or another material having the same coefficient of temperature expansion. 35 structures The sensing element in the first embodiment consists of six identical rectangular plates (Fig. 2) arranged to form three pairs of parallel and spaced apart 1 and 2 plates at a distance of 1 and 2, Zi4, 5, and 6. The planes of the pairs of plates are mutually perpendicular, the middle parts of the plates assembled in the JQ sensing element form a cube, and the ends of the plates protruding beyond the surface of the cube form a wing. Sensitive plates can be made of lightweight Each electrode plate, for example plate 9 (Fig. 6), in addition to the active electrodes 23 and 24, which simultaneously serve to capacitively determine the position of the accelerometer's sensitive element and to create electrostatic forces of the inverse converter and suspension of the sensitive element, has side metallized surfaces 31, the bottom metallized surface 32, alloys of aluminum, beryllium, magnesium, titanium and are interconnected by laser welding. The sensitive element according to the second variant also consists of six identical rectangular plates (FIG. 3) arranged similarly to the plates in the first embodiment, however, the plates are connected in the sensitive element through a cubic frame 7. According to the second variant, the plates are made of insulating material (silicon oxide , ceramics) with a metallized surface and pasted on a cubic frame. The accelerometer case consists of three pairs of electrode plates 8 and 9, 10 and 11, 12 and 13 (Fig. 1), connected in pairs by cross-pieces 14-19. Plates 8 and 9 are paired with crossbars 14 and 15, plates 10 and 11 are connected with beams 16 and 17, and plates 12 and 13 are connected with crossbars 18 and 19 (Figs 1.4 and 5). Plates 8-13 with crossbars 14-19 are inserted one into the other around the inertial mass and reinforced each g relative to each other with fastener 20 (Fig. 1). Assembled unit of the device is installed inside the sealed enclosure. On each pair of electrode plas2Q tin 8-13 there is a system of four active electrodes: on the plates 8 and 9 - the electrode 21-24 (figure 4 and 5); on plates 10 and 11 - electrodes 25 and 26 and two more electrodes. (on 25 FFIG.4 not shown); on the plates 12 and 13 - electrodes 27-30 (fig. 5) The crossbars 14-19 perform the function of calibrated adjustment pads for fixing the distances d and dj 35 Jq Jq Each electrode plate, for example plate 9 (Fig. 6), in addition to the active electrodes 23 and 24, which simultaneously serve to capacitively determine the position of the accelerometer's sensitive element and to create electrostatic forces of the inverse converter and suspension of the sensitive element, has side metallized surfaces 31, the bottom metallized surface 32, 50 stops 33, which prevent the inertial mass from contacting the active electrodes. Conductive surface 31 has the same potential as inertia. 5g mass, and serves as a shield to eliminate extraneous electrostatic attraction to other non-active wire electrode electrodes. Conductive surface 32 is brought to the reference potential in order to minimize the effect of parasitic capacitances in the capacitive determination of the position of the sensitive element of the device. Electrode plates 8-13 are made of an insulating material (silicon oxide, alumina). Metallization of the active electrodes and other conductive surfaces is carried out by spraying in vacuum. Electrodes and conductive surfaces are separated by grooves formed by ultrasound. The mechanical stops 33 have a height on the order of 20 μm and are obtained by clicking on the method. The three-axis electrostatic accelerometer has three identical compensation circuits, each of which, for example, on the OZ axis and on the angle y, consists (Fig. 7) of an AC generator and a DC source 35, connected via capacitance and a resistor, respectively, via a flexible conductor 36 with inertial mass. In addition, the compensation circuit includes four transformers 37-40, two preamplifiers 41 and 42, two phase-sensitive rectifiers 43 and 44, as well as a summation-subtraction device 45, correction blocks 46 and 47, and an output amplifier unit 48 . The proposed three-axis electrostatic accelerometer measures six components of the movement of the instrument body: three projections of the linear acceleration vector on the axes OX, OY, OZ and three projections of the angular acceleration vector on the same axes. Since the accelerometer operation in all three measurement channels of linear acceleration components is similar and coincides in three measurement channels of components of angular acceleration, consider it on the example of measuring linear acceleration directed along the axis OZ, and angular acceleration around the axis OY. I With the indicated acceleration components, the inertial mass moves along the OZ axis and simultaneously rotates around the OY axis. Plates 1 and 2 of the inertial mass in the circuit of the compensation circuit form with electrodes 21–24 two differential capacitive sensors for the linear and angular positions of the inertial mass relative to the accelerometer case. The signals from these differential sensors are amplified, rectified, and summed-subtracting devices are divided into two components: S ,, proportional to the displacement of the inertial mass along the OZ axis, and Sj proportional to the angle of rotation of the inertial mass around the OY axis. The signals S and S are converted by correction blocks of 6 voltages and and Uj., Proportional to the linear 5 acceleration along the axis OZ and angular acceleration around the axis OY, respectively. The voltages U- and U are the outputs of the accelerometer. In addition, the voltages U and U. are transformed 0 and amplified by an output amplifying unit that generates voltages and, Uj, and. and and. These voltages are applied to the active electrodes 21-24 to compensate for the inertial force and inertia moment acting on the inertial mass. As is known, in a differential electrostatic force inverter -, where F is the electrostatic force; C is the capacitance of the capacitor formed by the transducer electrodes; e is the central electrode displacement of the transducer from the neutral position; and - voltage between electrodes. But (E is the dielectric constant of the medium between the electrodes), therefore, and 215 In a compensation accelerometer with an electrostatic inverse force transducer, the electrostatic force F balances the inertial force ta (t is the mass of the sensitive element; a is the measured acceleration), therefore , 0 five 0 five 0 55 and consequently, t, 2 2e2 m TI, - „ E s Since the proposed accelerometer has a greater S / m ratio compared to the prototype, when Given a maximum voltage U between the electrodes of the inverse power converter, it is able to measure a higher maximum acceleration than the prototype. Thus, an increase in the upper limit of the range of the accelerations measured by the instrument is achieved. If an increase in the maximum measured acceleration is not required, then with this maximum measurable acceleration, the proposed accelerometer reduces the operating voltage in the electrostatic inverse force transducer.
