Abstract
Increasing demands regarding the light-weight, high-torque and high-precision actuator are inducing the need for new actuators and new drive principles. This paper introduces a novel principle for transforming the linear motion of high performance piezoelectric actuators into continuous rotation is implemented by two piezoelectric actuators acting on a driving gear covering a driven gear with a slightly smaller diameter. By driving the piezoelectric actuators, the driving gear is energized to move on a circular trajectory around the driven gear which is thereby slowly rotated. Firstly, the structure and driving mechanism is introduced. Secondly, transmission ratio, the demand driving force and displacement are analyzed theoretically and by the means of simulation analysis. Finally, the bottlenecks of mechanism design and machining are presented. Some instructive reference for the structure design of Piezo/Gear compound drive is provided.
