中文摘要
本研究项目旨在研究无铅心脏起搏器的持续供电问题,通过对其机械性能的转换。
人们心中的能源就是电能,这种能源的转化和过程也被称为振动、能量和收获。
在压电式振动和能量采集机(EHS)中的核心元件是一种新型的压电式结构。
它的结构引起了人们对周围环境振动的响应,它的主要机械振动也被转换成了空气。
电能是通过压电式振动现象产生的。这种振动产生的电能是由电能产生的。
通常情况下,收割能源是使用100微瓦的电力。如果使用EHS系统,而不是使用电池为电力系统供电,他们会这样做。
EHS能源将是永久性的,而不是完全需要更换的。事实是,EHS是永久性的。
电源是无铅心脏起搏器的辅助设备。与传统的心脏起搏器不同,无铅心脏起搏器
当心脏起搏器的电池耗尽时,不能只从心脏取出起搏器。因此,大约七年后,心脏起搏器被取出。
新的无铅心脏起搏器必须植入心脏,这将占据更多的心室空间。
已经证明,可以开发一种新型的EH起搏器,通过这种转换来为传统的心脏起搏器提供可再生的电力。
心脏跳动引起的心脏振动与电力有关。这项技术可能会消除对定期心脏起搏器的需求。
替代手术。无引线心脏起搏器通常被植入心脏,因此它们被大大缩小。
而不是传统的心脏起搏器。这一尺寸和限制要求EHS使用微型心脏起搏器。
我们的初步研究表明,与传统的无铅心脏起搏器相比,EHS的振动具有更大的功率密度。
电池。使用普通EH起搏器而不是普通电池起搏器不仅会导致可能出现永久性的无铅心脏起搏器。
但也使得为心脏起搏器增加更多的功能成为可能。这项新的项目涉及到系统的心脏建模、设计和测试。
为无铅心脏起搏器提供了大量的EH设计方案的优化、制造、测试和测试。自那以来,它们是最典型的。
无铅心脏起搏器的形状是圆柱形的,所以EH心脏起搏器的形状应该是三维的。
在这个新项目中设置了EH的设计方案,除了大多数的方案文献中的EH方案外,这些方案都是2D的。
被调查的EHS问题被分为两大类:线性问题和非线性问题。更多的是非线性问题。
先进的技术和更复杂的技术。如果设计得当,一个非线性的EHS系统可以非常稳健地提高心率。
变化。建议的线型EH结构是一种扇形折叠结构,由多根相互连接的梁组成,并固定在一起。
一端是自由的,另一端是自由的。我们可以使用热效应和磁致屈曲效应来诱导结构中的非线性。
机电一体化模型的发展表明,它可以准确地预测出未来EH的反应速度。
设计是这个项目的一个主要目标。这些新模型将被用来对最小的微型EHS进行优化设计。
每一项EH生物设计实验的制造和实验测试(通过体外实验和动物实验)都将进行评估。
这些模型测试和校准了美国EHS的最新性能指标。此外,该项目还包括广泛的可靠性和可靠性分析。
确保EH工厂的较长使用寿命和时间,并确保确保EH工厂有足够的电力和生产成本,尽管有许多变化。
在这些患者中,心率和心脏的收缩能力都不同。
英文摘要
This project investigates continuous powering of leadless cardiac pacemakers by conversion of mechanical
energy of the heart to electrical energy. This energy conversion process is called vibration energy harvesting.
The central element in piezoelectric vibration energy harvesters (EHs) is a piezoelectric structure. The
structure resonates in response to the ambient oscillations, and its mechanical oscillations are converted to
electrical energy through the piezoelectric phenomenon. The amounts of energy produced by vibration energy
harvesting are typically in the order of microwatts. If EHs are used instead of batteries to power a system, they
will be permanent regenerative power sources and will not need replacement. The fact that EHs are permanent
power sources is instrumental for leadless pacemakers. Unlike conventional pacemakers, leadless
pacemakers cannot be extracted from the heart when their batteries deplete. Thus after about seven years a
new leadless pacemaker must be implanted in the heart which occupies even further ventricular space. We
have shown that an EH can be developed to regeneratively power the conventional pacemakers by conversion
of heart beat induced vibrations to electricity. This could eliminate the need for periodic pacemaker
replacement surgeries. Leadless pacemakers are implanted in the heart and are thus substantially smaller
than conventional pacemakers. This size limit demanded miniature EHs.
Our preliminary studies show that vibration EHs can have larger power density than the leadless pacemaker
batteries. Using an EH instead of a battery will not only result in potentially permanent leadless pacemakers
but also enables adding more functions to the pacemaker. This project involves systematic modeling, design,
optimization, fabrication, and testing of a number of EH designs for leadless pacemakers. Since the typical
shape of a leadless pacemaker is cylindrical, the shape of the EH element should be three-dimensional. This
sets the EH designs in this project aside from the majority of the EH in the literature, which are 2D. The
investigated EHs are divided into two large categories of linear and nonlinear EHs. Nonlinear EHs are more
advanced and more complicated. If properly designed, nonlinear EHs can be very robust to heart rate
variations. The proposed linear EH is a fan-folded structure composed of multiple linked beams clamped at
one end and free at the other end. We use thermal and magnetic buckling to induce nonlinearity in the
nonlinear EH. Development of electromechanical models that can accurately predict the response of the EH
designs is a major goal of this project. These models will be used to optimally design the miniature EHs.
Fabrication and experimental testing of each EH design (through in vitro and animal tests) will both evaluate
the models and calibrate the performance of the EHs. The project also includes extensive reliability analyses to
ensure the long life time of the EH and to ascertain sufficient power production of the EH despite variations of
heart rate and heart contractility among patients.
