Improving Velocity of Stick-Slip Piezoelectric Actuators With Optimized Flexure Hinges Based on SIMP Method

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Flexure hinges have been widely applied in driving mechanisms to achieve the high velocity of stick-slip piezoelectric actuators. However, the majority of driving mechanisms are designed with existing flexure hinge forms, and it is difficult for the ...

A Study on High Speed Control Mechanism of Micro-Depth Using PZT Actuator [PDF]

open access: yes한국정밀공학회지, 2018
The goal of this study is to develop a fast, controllable PZT-driven depth adjustment device with a flexure hinge. The device can be used to trace rapidly a flat or curved surface with several hundreds of micrometers’ variance in height.

On mechanical properties of planar flexure hinges of compliant mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yesMechanical Sciences, 2011
The synthesis of compliant mechanisms yield optimized topologies that combine several stiff parts with highly elastic flexure hinges. The hinges are often represented in finite element analysis by a single node (one-node hinge) leaving doubts on the ...

New empirical stiffness equations for corner-filleted flexure hinges [PDF]

open access: yesMechanical Sciences, 2013
This paper investigates the existing stiffness equations for corner-filleted flexure hinges. Three empirical stiffness equations for corner-filleted flexure hinges (each fillet radius, r, equals to 0.1 l; l, the length of a corner-filleted flexure hinge)

Study of the hinge thickness deviation for a 316L parallelogram flexure mechanism fabricated via selective laser melting

open access: yes, 2021
3D printing offers great potential for developing complex flexure mechanisms. Recently, thickness-correction factors (TCFs) were introduced to correct the thickness and stiffness deviations of powder-based metal 3D printed flexure hinges during design ...

A Generic Compliance Modeling Method for Two-Axis Elliptical-Arc-Filleted Flexure Hinges

open access: yesSensors, 2017
As a kind of important flexible joint, two-axis flexure hinges can realize in-plane and out-of-plane motions and can be used for constructing flexure-based spatial compliant mechanisms.

Approximate equations for circular hinge stiffnesses

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2023
Flexure hinges are widely used for very high precision mechanisms, such as a high precision linear guide, a nano positioning stage, a robot hand and etc., because of no gap and no friction. Regarding circular hinge stiffnesses, Paros and Weisbord derived

Design and performance comparison of double-series and triple-series flexure hinges

open access: yes工程科学学报, 2017
The flexible hinge is one of the most important components in lamina emergent mechanisms (LEMs), so the design of a new type of lamina emergent torsional (LET) joint can play a key role in its movement performance.

Progressive collapse of reinforced concrete buildings considering flexure-axial-shear interaction in plastic hinges

open access: yesCogent Engineering, 2021
Progressive collapse assessment of a reinforced concrete (RC) building designed only for gravity loads and lacking a dedicated lateral load resisting system was carried out using the alternate load path (ALP) method and finite element method (FEM ...
