Applied Physics and Mathematics Annotation << Back REMOTE CALIBRATION MODULE BASED ON PIEZOCERAMIC BIMORPH K.V. KONDRATEV, V.N. SERGEEVICH, G.V. DVIRNYY, A.F. SHISHKINA The results of 3D modeling of remote calibration module (LCM). The module is designed for the calibration of gauges, a member of the Workstation fire acceptance test of the plasma jet. The engine thrust is less than 10 gauss, and it works only in the thermal vacuum conditions including at extreme temperatures. Mechanical energy transfer occurs due to dry friction, the master and slave units. The principle of operation of the piezoceramic bimorph based on its bending around the center position under the infl uence of an alternating voltage. Thus there is a bend across the bimorph plate (similar to the bimetallic plate). The developed model meets the requirements of technical specifi cation requirements for remote calibration module. The main requirement for devices sold in the space industry and operating in a vacuum, is to minimize the weight and size and compactness. Dimensions module designed: height 115 mm, width 48 mm, depth 48 mm. The ability to combine the load on the gauge thread provided partial or full use of converters eff ort, lifting legs which interact with loads of denominations: 1, 2, 4 and 8 g. Wide input voltage range Power piezoceramic bimorph, allows you to adjust the amplitude of the vibrations, which in turn ensures smooth lifting and lowering of loads. The design of the guide rods are provided for the travel goods cargoes for vertically directional influence on the calibration thread. Designed LCM allows remote calibration could move step by step and check sensor reading on the frame of the engine suspension with a nominal value of goods that aff ect the calibration thread. The operator carrying out the calibration procedure is constantly up to date information on the status of all four loads due to the presence of the indicator tabs, make contact when the load is in the top position.
