Definitions
- the invention relates to a piezo stack and a method for producing a piezo stack, as can be used, for example, for actuators for driving fuel injectors in engine and motor vehicle construction.
- Previously known multi-layer piezo actuators are manufactured in a manufacturing process that essentially has the following process steps.
- a film is produced which is printed in a second step, stacked in a third step and pressed in a fourth step to form a disc or block with a dimension of, for example, 10 ⁇ 10 cm.
- the disc is separated into several piezostacks, for example 5 mm wide. The separation can be done, for example, by sawing.
- the piezo stacks are released. This means that the binder in the form of synthetic resin, with which the ceramic powder was mixed and processed into foils, is expelled again.
- the piezostacks are sintered in a seventh step and ground in an eighth step.
- the piezostacks are metallized, that is, they are provided with an outer conductor for electrical contacting, in a tenth step they are burned in, in an eleventh step the external contact is soldered, in a twelfth step the potting, and in a thirteenth step the installation in a housing and in a fourteenth step the electrical poling.
- the external electrodes usually two, extend over the long side of the piezo stack and are diagonally opposite one another. In order to prevent every inner electrode from coming into electrical contact with each other, each layer of the piezo stack must also be there are electrically inactive zones opposite each other diagonally.
- FIG. 1 A corresponding basic structure of a multilayer ceramic actuator is shown in FIG. 1.
- the individual ceramic layers 7 are separated from one another by metallic internal electrodes 3, the layer thickness of which is a few ⁇ m. Due to the electrically inactive zones 2.1 and 2.2 of the inner electrodes 3, which in this embodiment are arranged diagonally opposite one another in the outer area of the piezo stack 5, it is possible, via an outer metallization 1 in the area of the inactive zones 2, to alternate the inner electrodes 3 to different electrical Potential. The electrical charges introduced into the piezo actuator cause the length of the piezo actuator to change.
- the electrically inactive zones 2 may only vary in size and position within very narrow tolerances.
- the curvature of the piezo stack 5 is particularly pronounced when the size of the electrically inactive zones 2 on one side differs significantly from the electrically inactive zones on the opposite side.
- the tolerance requirements for the size and the position of the electrically inactive zones are so high that they have so far not been able to be reliably achieved by an inexpensive manufacturing process.
- One way of avoiding the disadvantage of the curvature of the piezo stack during a change in length is to compensate for the curvature. This is done by placing the piezo stack on a membrane which is supported radially on the piezo actuator housing. With such a guide, lateral deflection is avoided. This embodiment is however, does not eliminate the curvature of the piezo stack and also has the disadvantage that it takes up more installation space due to the membrane.
- the method according to the invention for producing a piezostack also has the advantage that the piezostack produced according to this method requires less installation space than the previously described embodiment.
- the object is achieved by a method for producing a piezo stack with the features specified in claim 1 and by a piezo stack with the features specified in claim 12.
- the method according to the invention for producing a piezo stack has the following steps.
- the asymmetry of the electrically inactive zones is first determined.
- the electrically inactive zones with oversize are then reduced until the asymmetry reaches a permissible level.
- the piezo stack according to the invention has electrically inactive zones on several sides. In order to standardize the sizes of the electrically inactive zones, a chamfer is provided along the piezo stack in the area of the oversized electrically inactive zones.
- the inactive zones are measured to determine the asymmetry of the electrically inactive zones.
- Dimensions that are used to determine the asymmetry are advantageously the widths of the electrically inactive zones.
- the measurement is carried out using an optical measurement method.
- the inactive zones can be reduced by grinding them.
- the edge of the piezo stack at which the electrically inactive zones of the piezo stack are located is ground.
- a chamfer is generated by reducing the electrically inactive zones.
- the bevel angle is advantageously adjustable. As a result, both the one and the other side of the electrically inactive zones, which have the oversize, can be adapted to the dimensions of the opposite inactive zones. It is also advantageous if the chamfer can be produced with a certain profile over the length of the edge of the piezo stack. An asymmetry of the electrically inactive zones which is distributed unevenly over the length of the piezo stack can thereby be eliminated.
- an external metallization is applied to the piezo stack in order to connect the electrically active zones to one another.
- the bevel of the piezo actuator over the length of the piezo stack has a profile which is dependent on the oversize of the electrically inactive zones. This ensures that an asymmetry of the electrically inactive zones that changes over the length of the piezo stack can be compensated for.
- Figure 1 shows the basic structure of a piezo stack in a three-dimensional view.
- Figure 2 shows a layer of the piezo stack in plan view.
- the piezo stack 5 in its initial form, as shown in principle in FIG. 1, is basically manufactured and constructed as described in steps one to fourteen in the introduction to the description.
- the piezo stack 5 has a multiplicity of ceramic layers 7, which are provided on both sides with an electrically active zone, also referred to below as the inner electrode 3.
- the ceramic layers 7 also have electrically inactive zones 2.
- FIG. 1 shows an electrically inactive zone 2.1 of an nth ceramic layer and an electrically inactive zone 2.2 of an n + lth ceramic layer.
- the electrically inactive zones 2, 2.1, 2.2 serve to ensure that not all electrically active zones 3 are electrically connected to one another via the outer conductor 1.
- the two arranged outer metallizations 1, 8 are attached to opposite corner areas of the piezo stack 5.
- the active zones 3 are alternately connected to one of the two outer metallizations 1, 8.
- an electric field is applied to a ceramic layer 7, which is delimited by two zones 3.
- the ceramic layer 7 expands or contracts. All ceramic layers 7 behave in a corresponding manner, so that the piezo stack 5 is lengthened or shortened. This is shown by way of example in FIG. 1. Only every second electrically active zone 3 on one side of the piezo stack is connected to the same outer conductor 1, 8.
- the chamfer angle can be selected so that the asymmetry is further reduced.
- the electrically inactive zones are measured using an optical method and digital image processing.
- the asymmetry is calculated from the measured values obtained.
- the outer surfaces of the piezo stack 5 are recorded by means of a camera and the images are fed to a digital image processing unit. Since the length and the position of the internal electrodes 3 of the piezo stack 5 can be seen on the images supplied by the camera, these values can be used to evaluate on which side of the piezo stack 5 the larger electrically inactive zones are present. A camera recording of the piezo stack 5 in cross section is therefore not necessary.
- the dimensions of the electrically active zones 3 can also be used to draw conclusions about the dimensions of the electrically inactive zones 2, 2.1, 2.2.
- the outer metallizations 1, 8 are applied to the piezo stack 5.
- outer conductors 1, 8 of the electrically inactive zones 2, 2.1, 2.2 and of the electrically active zones 3 are only shown as an example in the figures. Depending on the application, the outer conductors 1, 8, the electrically inactive zones 2, 2.1, 2.2 and the electrically active zones 3 can easily be arranged differently. This does not leave the scope of the invention.
