Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing to Detection job block provided by the invention and adopt the gyrostatic embodiment of this Detection job block to elaborate.
See Fig. 1, in the present invention first embodiment, Detection job block 1 comprises anchor point 10, first mass 11, second mass 12, the 3rd mass 13.
Described anchor point 10 is arranged in described first mass 11, and is fixed in an external substrate (not indicating in accompanying drawing).In this embodiment, described first mass 11 is the framework of inner hollow, and described anchor point 10 is arranged on framework inside.Described anchor point 10 is fixed in described external substrate, can not rotate and move.
Described first mass 11 is arranged in the second mass 12, and by being suspended on described anchor point 10 at the first elastic beam 14 of first direction symmetry.Described second mass 12 is the framework of inner hollow, and described first mass 11 hangs and is arranged on framework inside.
Described second mass 12 is arranged in the 3rd mass 13, and by being suspended on the first mass 11 at the second elastic beam 15 of second direction symmetry.Described 3rd mass 13 is the framework of inner hollow, and described second mass 12 hangs and is arranged on framework inside.
Described 3rd mass 13 by being suspended on the second mass 12 at the 3rd elastic beam 16 of first direction symmetry, and passes through to be connected with external drive mass (not indicating in accompanying drawing) at the 4th elastic beam 17 of second direction symmetry.
Described anchor point 10 can not rotate, and described first mass 11 is by the restriction of described first elastic beam 14, and make described first mass 11 only have the rotation axis of first direction, namely described first mass 11 can rotate around described first direction.Described 3rd mass 13 is connected with external drive mass by the 4th elastic beam 17 of second direction symmetry, described 3rd mass 13 is by the restriction of described 4th elastic beam 17, make described 3rd mass 13 only have the rotation axis of second direction, namely described 3rd mass 13 can rotate around described second direction.Described second mass 12 is suspended on the first mass 11 by the second elastic beam 15 of second direction symmetry, described 3rd mass 13 is by being suspended on the second mass 12 at the 3rd elastic beam 16 of first direction symmetry, simultaneously, described first mass 11 has the rotation axis of first direction, described 3rd mass 13 has the rotation axis of second direction, so described second mass 12 has the rotation axis of first direction and second direction.
Described first direction is vertical with described second direction.In this embodiment, described first direction is Y-direction, and described second direction is X-direction.The motion principle of Detection job block of the present invention is described below in detail.
When external drive mass drives described Detection job block, described external drive mass drives the 4th elastic beam 17 of described symmetry to move respectively to the positive negative sense (+Y-direction and-Y-direction) of first direction (Y-direction), now, described first mass 11, second mass 12 and the 3rd mass 13 all do clockwise rotation.
When described Detection job block 1 is subject to one when the angular velocity of second direction (X-direction), described first mass 11, second mass 12 and the 3rd mass 13 are subject to around first direction (Y-direction) Ge Shi moment, described first mass 11 and the second mass 12 rotate around described first direction (Y-direction), and there is no rotation axis at first direction (Y-direction) due to described 3rd mass 13, so described 3rd mass 13 does not rotate around described first direction (Y-direction).
When described Detection job block 1 is subject to one when the angular velocity of first direction (Y-direction), described first mass 11, second mass 12 and the 3rd mass 13 are subject to around second direction (X-direction) Ge Shi moment, described second mass 12 and the 3rd mass 13 rotate around described second direction (X-direction), and there is no rotation axis at first direction (Y-direction) due to described first mass 11, so described first mass 11 does not rotate around described second direction (X-direction).
Detection job block 1 of the present invention because the second mass 12 had both had the rotation axis of first direction, there is again the rotation axis of second direction, so can rotate at first direction, also can rotate in second direction.Namely only utilize a Detection job block 1 just can realize detecting first direction angular velocity, the object of second direction angular velocity can be detected again.Thus greatly reduce gyrostatic volume, realize gyrostatic miniaturization.
In order to reduce the size of Detection job block 1 of the present invention further, reducing described gyrostatic volume, present invention also offers the second embodiment.
See Fig. 2, in the present invention second embodiment, the position that described first mass 11 is corresponding with described first elastic beam 14 is provided with the first depression 20, and described first depression 20 is for holding described first elastic beam 14.The position that described second mass 12 is corresponding with described second elastic beam 15 is provided with the second depression 21, and described second depression 21 is for holding described second elastic beam 15.The position that described second mass 12 is corresponding with described 3rd elastic beam 16 is provided with the 3rd and caves in 22, and described 3rd depression 22 is for holding described 3rd elastic beam 16.The position that described 3rd mass 13 is corresponding with described 4th elastic beam 17 is provided with the 4th and caves in 23, and described 4th depression 23 is for holding described 4th elastic beam 17.
Described first elastic beam 14, second elastic beam 15, 3rd elastic beam 16 and the 4th elastic beam 17 are separately positioned on the first depression 20, second depression 21, 3rd depression 22 and the 4th depression 23 in, make the first elastic beam 14, second elastic beam 15, 3rd elastic beam 16 and the 4th elastic beam 17 respectively with described first mass 11, second mass 12 and the 3rd mass 13 overlap, reduce described first elastic beam 14, second elastic beam 15, the space that 3rd elastic beam 16 and the 4th elastic beam 17 take, thus the size of described Detection job block 1 can be reduced further, reduce described gyrostatic volume, realize gyrostatic miniaturization.
Further, because the 3rd mass 13 is equivalent to housing in Detection job block 1, so may there is the situation that the 3rd mass 13 is narrower, make the 4th depression 23 more shallow, described 4th elastic beam 17 can not be held by described 4th depression 23 completely.There is the 4th elastic beam 17 of part to be exposed to outside described 4th depression 23, thus increase the size of described Detection job block 1.Given this, 3rd mass 13 described in Detection job block 1 of the present invention has a projection 24 at described 4th depression 23 correspondence positions, described second mass 12 has an accommodation section 25 with described protruding 24 corresponding positions, and described protruding 24 stretch into described accommodation section 25.Due to protruding 24 with the coordinating of accommodation section 25, increase the degree of depth of described 4th depression 23, make described 4th elastic beam 17 can all or major part by the 4th depression 23 hold, the size of the described Detection job block 1 of further reduction, reduce described gyrostatic volume, realize gyrostatic miniaturization.
Further, described anchor point 10, first mass 11, second mass 12, the 3rd mass 13, first elastic beam 14, second elastic beam 15, the 3rd elastic beam 16 and the 4th elastic beam 17 are one-body molded, make simple.
