Lub advent ntawm autonomous tsav tsheb thiab advanced tsav-pab systems (ADAS) tau tso LiDAR (Teeb pom kev thiab Ranging) technology nyob rau hauv pem hauv ntej ntawm automotive innovation. Cov sophisticated sensors muab cov ntaub ntawv tseem ceeb 3D point huab, enabling tsheb "saib" lawv ib puag ncig nrog qhov tsis sib xws, txawm nyob rau hauv cov xwm txheej nyuaj. Txawm yog, Kev sib koom ua ke LiDAR rau hauv cov tsheb loj tsim ua rau muaj kev cuam tshuam loj heev: miniaturization, kev ua tau zoo, kev tsis ncaj ncees lawm, thiab robust kev ua tau zoo nyob rau hauv huab automotive ib puag ncig.
Qhov no yog qhov twg yoj springs tawm li ntsiag to, tseem haib enablers, muab compact, Cov kev daws teeb meem ua tau zoo uas tseem ceeb rau kev ua haujlwm thiab kev ntseeg siab ntawm cov tsheb LiDAR tshuab.
Lub Unseen Enabler: Wave Springs hauv Automotive LiDAR
LiDAR units, seb mechanical (tig) los yog solid-state (MEMS, Flash LiDAR), muaj ntau yam ilv Cheebtsam uas yuav tsum tau muaj meej los ua ke, zog sib xws, thiab txhim khu kev qha shock / vibration dampening. Ib txwm coil springs feem ntau xav tau ntau qhov chaw axial, thaum lwm yam khoom yuav tsis muaj qhov tsim nyog precision lossis qaug zog lub neej. Wave springs, nrog lawv cov cim flattened hlau tsim, zoo kawg nkaus txuas qhov sib txawv no.
Vim li cas Wave Springs yog qhov tseem ceeb rau Automotive LiDAR:
-
Miniaturization & Axial Space Savings:
- Kev Sib Tw: Automakers xav tau sleek tsim. Bulky sensors yog qhov zoo nkauj tsis zoo nkauj thiab nyuaj rau kev koom ua ke rau hauv cov pob, teeb taub hau, los yog rooflines.
- Wave Spring Solution: Wave springs ua tiav tib lub zog thiab deflection li tsoos coil springs hauv qhov chaw qis dua (feem ntau 50% los yog ntau dua). Qhov no tso cai rau LiDAR cov tuam txhab lag luam kom txo qis tag nrho cov hneev taw sensor, ua kom yooj yim rau kev sib xyaw ua ke hauv kev tsim tsheb. Cov khoom me me kuj ua rau txo cov nqi khoom thiab qhov hnyav.
-
Precision Bearing Preload & Kev sib tw (Tshwj xeeb tshaj yog rau Mechanical LiDAR):
- Kev Sib Tw: Ntau LiDAR units siv cov txheej txheem tig (E.G., iav iav, laser emitters) kom ua tiav 360-degree teb saib. Cov rotating Cheebtsam no cia siab rau cov bearings uas yuav tsum muaj kev sib raug zoo thiab kev ua si tsawg, txawm nyob rau hauv tas li vibration thiab kub hloov pauv. Ib qho kev sib txawv ncaj qha cuam tshuam cov ntaub ntawv raug.
- Wave Spring Solution: Wave springs yog qhov zoo tshaj plaws rau kev siv cov axial preload zoo ib yam thiab meej rau cov kabmob. Qhov no preload:
- Tshem tawm axial ua si, tham, thiab wobble.
- Ua kom muaj kev sib haum xeeb ntawm cov khoom siv kho qhov muag, tseem ceeb heev rau qhov tseeb beam steering thiab ranging.
- Extens bearing lub neej los ntawm kev tiv thaiv brinelling thiab txo qaug zog.
- Tuav qhov tseeb ntawm cov ntaub ntawv tsim los ntawm huab cua.
-
Kev vibration Dampening & Shock Absorption:
- Kev Sib Tw: Automotive ib puag ncig yog lim hiam. LiDAR sensors raug rau txoj kev vibration tas li, cuam tshuam los ntawm cov poholes, thiab sudden jolts. Cov zog dynamic no tuaj yeem txo qis kev ua haujlwm, loosen kev sib txuas, thiab puas ilv kho qhov muag los yog hluav taws xob Cheebtsam.
- Wave Spring Solution: Wave springs ua raws li compact shock absorbers thiab vibration dampeners. Lawv cais cov khoom rhiab los ntawm kev puas tsuaj oscillations, tiv thaiv Circuit Court boards, optical ntsiab, thiab connectors los ntawm kev puas tsuaj, xyuas kom tsis tu ncua, ruaj khov ua haujlwm.
-
Material Versatility rau cov xwm txheej heev:
- Kev Sib Tw: Automotive kev khiav hauj lwm kub yog nyob rau hauv lub Arctic txias (-40°C) mus scorching deserts (+85°C lossis siab dua hauv chav tsev). Tsis tas li ntawd xwb, units yuav tsum tiv taus noo noo, tshuaj, thiab corrosive agents.
- Wave Spring Solution: Wave springs tuaj yeem tsim los ntawm ntau qhov sib txawv ntawm cov khoom siv ua haujlwm siab xws li:
- Cov Hlau Stainless (E.G., 17-7 PH, 302/316 SS): Rau kev tiv thaiv corrosion zoo heev thiab kev ua haujlwm zoo thoob plaws hauv lub tsheb kub kub ntau yam.
- Inconel X-750: Rau qhov kub thiab txias heev los yog ib puag ncig corrosive heev (though less common for a full LiDAR unit's internals, lawv muaj yog tias xav tau).
- Cov ntaub ntawv yooj yim no ua kom lub caij nplooj ntoos hlav tuav nws lub zog tseem ceeb thiab qhov ruaj khov nyob thoob plaws tag nrho kev ua haujlwm ntawm lub tsheb LiDAR chav tsev..
-
Txhim khu kev ntseeg & Kev ua neej nyob:
- Kev Sib Tw: Autonomous tsheb xav tau cov khoom uas muaj kev ntseeg siab heev thiab ua haujlwm ntev (txhiab teev, feem ntau tshaj 10 xyoo). Kev ua tsis tiav ntawm LiDAR chav tsev tsis yog ib qho kev xaiv.
- Wave Spring Solution: Los ntawm optimized tsim, cov khoom siv siab heev, thiab cov txheej txheem tsim khoom nruj, yoj springs muab lub neej qaug zog zoo dua piv rau ntau lwm hom caij nplooj ntoos hlav. Lawv cov kev ntxhov siab tsis sib xws, tshwj xeeb tshaj yog nrog kev tsim ntau tig, pab txhawb rau lub neej ntev, txo qhov kev pheej hmoo ntawm kev ua tsis tiav ntxov thiab nqi tsheb poob qis.
-
Txhim kho kho qhov muag alignment:
- Kev Sib Tw: Qhov tseeb xav tau rau LiDAR txhais tau tias txhua lub lens, iav, thiab tus ntes yuav tsum nyob twj ywm hauv kev sib raug zoo. Txawm tias microscopic hloov pauv tuaj yeem cuam tshuam kev ua haujlwm.
- Wave Spring Solution: Tshaj li bearing preload, yoj springs tuaj yeem siv los tuav cov khoom siv kho qhov muag raws li qhov tseeb, tsis tu ncua nyob rau hauv lawv cov vaj tse, kom ntseeg tau tias lawv cov kev sib raug zoo raug tswj xyuas txawm tias thermal expansion/contraction los yog sab nraud vibrations.
Daim ntawv thov tshwj xeeb ntawm Wave Springs hauv LiDAR Chav:
- Bearing Preload: Daim ntawv thov feem ntau thiab tseem ceeb, Ua kom muaj kev ruaj ntseg thiab raug ntawm rotating laser emitters/receivers lossis scanning iav.
- Optical Cheebtsam Retention: Kev ruaj ntseg lo ntsiab muag, prism, thiab tsom iav hauv lawv cov mounts, tuav txoj kev kho qhov muag kom meej.
- Tus actuator & Shutter Mechanisms: Muab lub zog rov qab los yog kev tswj xyuas meej hauv cov khoom siv kho qhov muag dynamic lossis kev tiv thaiv kaw.
- Printed Circuit Board (PCB) & Connector Compression: Ua kom muaj kev sib cuag hluav taws xob zoo ib yam thiab txo qhov kev pheej hmoo ntawm kev sib cuam tshuam vim kev co hauv cov khoom siv hluav taws xob hnyav.
- MEMS Daim iav Preload (Solid-State LiDAR): Txawm nyob rau hauv solid-state designs, yoj springs tuaj yeem siv los siv quab yuam rau cov khoom tshwj xeeb MEMS lossis cov qauv hauv qab, ua kom lawv ruaj khov.
