The working principle of the acceleration sensor is as follows:
the magnetic floater 1 is arranged in the non-magnetic cavity, and on one hand, the magnetic floater 1 is subjected to gravity and buoyancy of the magnetic fluid 14; on the other hand, because the magnetic floater 1 can generate magnetic field gradient itself, and the magnetic fluid 14 has its unique characteristics under the action of the magnetic field gradient, a force can be generated, so that the magnetic floater 1 is suspended in the magnetic fluid 14 and keeps a middle balance position in the radial direction of the cylindrical non-magnetic cavity; when radial acceleration exists, the position of the magnetic floater 1 is deviated in the radial direction, so that the magnetic field gradient is changed, a restoring force is generated, the magnetic floater 1 immediately restores to the middle balance position, and the magnetic floater is insensitive to the radial acceleration, and the influence of the radial acceleration is eliminated.
The non-magnetic end cover 13 is provided with magnetic components 9, the polarity of the magnetic components is opposite to that of the magnetic floater 1, and the magnetic components are respectively arranged on the left and the right, so that the magnetic floater 1 is always under the action of magnetic pole repulsion force. The magnetic float 1 remains axially centred in the cylindrical non-magnetic chamber when not subjected to external axial accelerations. When the magnetic floater 1 is subjected to the action of external axial acceleration, the magnetic floater 1 has a movement tendency in the axial direction relative to the cylindrical nonmagnetic cavity due to the action of inertia, and generates certain displacement. The displacement of the magnetic moving member 1 causes the force of the magnetic member 9 on the magnetic moving member 1 to change, and the end closer to the magnetic member 9 receives a larger repulsive force and the end farther from the magnetic member 9 receives a smaller repulsive force, and in the state shown in fig. 4, the repulsive force received at the left end is reduced and the repulsive force received at the right end is increased, so that the magnetic float 1 tends to move toward the center position, and when the external acceleration force is equal to the repulsive force of the magnetic member 9 on the magnetic float 1, an equilibrium position is reached. The displacement obtained by detection can be used for knowing the magnitude of the axial external acceleration.
In this example, magnetic displacement detecting element 7 adopts hall element, and the motion displacement of magnetic float 1 will accurately detect out through hall element, adopts the hall element differential connection with both sides about, eliminates some interfering signal, offsets the strong signal that the strong magnetic field that magnetic part 9 produced to hall element simultaneously to be favorable to the detection of weak signal, improve and detect the precision.
In this example, the movement displacement of the magnetic float 1 is also detected simultaneously by a special shape capacitance detection method. Two groups of multi-medium semicircular combined detection capacitors 6 with gaps are arranged on the outer layer of the cylindrical nonmagnetic cavity, and the two groups of capacitors and the capacitor plates are positioned and isolated with circumferential ring platforms by using axial bosses on the outer wall of the cylindrical nonmagnetic cavity. When the magnetic float 1 moves in the cylindrical non-magnetic cavity, the dielectric content inside the two detection capacitors 6 is caused to change, thereby changing the capacitance value of the detection capacitors. The detection capacitors on the left side and the right side are differentially connected, so that some interference signals are eliminated, and the detection precision is improved.
The coil fixing sleeve 2 is nested on the outer wall of the cylindrical non-magnetic cavity, the control coil 3 is uniformly wound on the coil fixing sleeve 2, the control coil 3 generates a magnetic field through impressed current control, so that the viscosity of the magnetic fluid 14 is controlled, the control of the viscosity of the magnetic fluid 14 can control the size of the movement displacement of the magnetic floater 1, the control of the measuring range can be realized, and the wide-range effect is achieved.
