摘要
En 中文
The cylindrical cross-axis flexural pivot (CCAFP) is proposed as an ultra-compact flexure capable of being integrated into hollow cylindrical shafts, enabling shaft motion without inhibiting cables or other components inside the shaft. Mechanism geometry, materials, and manufacturing are proposed and the results analyzed and tested. A parametric finite element model of the CCAFP was created to analyze the force-deflection and strain deflection relationships and the predicted behavior was verified by experiment. Analytic models of stress-limiting cam-surfaces suggest even larger motions may be possible when not limited by current practical constraints. The CCAFP is demonstrated and tested at multiple size scales and in multiple materials, ranging from 28.6 mm diameter 4130 steel (achieving 9 degrees of angular deflection) to 3 mm diameter NiTi (achieving an angular deflection of 85 degrees). The results are generalized to apply to a range of applications, and the CCAFP particularly shows promise for implementation in minimally invasive surgical instruments to decrease instrument size while maintaining instrument performance.
