1、两个V型的悬挂的确可以达到约束自由度的作用，但是那就要求悬挂点的中心和质心在竖直平面内重合，这样在V的底部正切值切下来的相对于质心的有效作用力臂太短，对于在正交方向的自由度约束强度不够。这种设计下的正交方向上的不平冗余度会比较小。
增加一根丝后，第5根丝的力臂等于半个边长，另外4根丝的等效力臂长度也变成了半个边长，约束度就可以极大的提高。后面我会拆解mahr的悬挂设计，他们用的是簧片，比细丝的强度高得多，就可以做对称设计了，但这只是理论，后来马尔在几年后也改成了非对称的设计
在另一个领域的固体潮观测装置里面，他们几乎只约束1个自由度，观测量程也只有几秒，而且不用移动，也能够满足要求，精度爆棚到0.0001秒
2、目前我了解到的差动电容检测方案的极限值大约是埃法左右的检出率，也就是对应的检测距离是nm级别，这个想下都头皮发麻。基于电磁阻尼的设计中，阻尼只会出现在有速度的条件下，而且是速度越快阻尼越大，在最后阶段阻尼会越变越小，我猜这是新泻精机的读数时间大约为10秒钟的原因，当然另一个原因是进行噪声的平均。
还有个原因是正交方向下的不平会导致极板不平行，产生读数变化，除非你设计成十字架的造型，然后做矢量求解
另外差动电容不是万能的，这个温度导致的共模的干扰信号是巨大和非线性的，我看做传感器的厂家都在选择低热材料。目前商用的能够做好现场补偿的电容传感器还真的只有美国雄狮，其余的补偿都不行，德国货也不行，这一点请参考各大拼接镜面天文望远镜的位移传感器方案，能搞电容的只有美利坚，其余国的几乎都是电涡流。
非要用水银的话，我只想到了准直光源下的测角原理，这个对于液面高度的变化不敏感，但是小型化会是个问题
3、研磨的工艺是成熟的，不是硬质砂轮，应该是比较软的材质，用压力和转速加时间来控制磨削量。我估计外模具不行，这个只能影响外表面，内表面要反过来做，比如用低热膨胀的抛光磨具伸到玻璃管内部，然后加热加压，感觉还是很复杂的样子作者: fobyellow 时间: 2023-2-4 18:17

Making a 10 second spirit level vial for a mirror artificial horizon.
To use a mirror as an artificial horizon it must be carefully leveled out. Machinist levels are available to 20 seconds of arc but they are expensive, starting at around $70.00 on e-bay and rather large for the purpose. You can buy a mirror a.h. with level vials already included, from Freiberger, but it will set you back around $900.00. The cheaper route is to make your own spirit levels. With a home made level vial sensitive to about 10 seconds of arc, it is possible to get very respectable results using a mirror artificial horizon. (Routinely, intercepts from 0 to 1.5 miles using a Davis Mark 15 sextant.) I have made more than a thousand observations this year using a mirror a.h. and would recommend them to anyone for accuracy, ease of use and speed of set-up. What follows is a ‘how-to’ on building a jig to grind glass level vials. The design is a simplified version of a design by Bill Morris and he generously provided a very detailed article he had written on the subject some years ago. (Article by B. Morris in another posting) I realize there is too much detail for most Nav-list members but I wanted anyone to be able to follow it. (Photos attached below)
A very sensitive spirit level vial is just a glass tube ground on the inside, into a minutely tapered barrel shape. This grinding is done by spinning the tube on a slightly curved round steel bar that has been smeared with a grinding paste. The trick is getting the correct curve on the bar and holding that very small curve as you spin the tube by hand. Mr. Morris’s article shows such a jig made by a skilled machinist with access to sophisticated tools.
The jig is made from a section of 1 x 1 mild steel square tube cut to about 18 inches length. Centered on the bar, drill a pair of 5/16 in. holes with centers exactly 340mm apart. This distance is important as it is part of the math for getting the correct arc on the grinding bar. Drill another pair of holes outside these, spaced about two inches outside the first holes. This distance is not critical. The holes can be done by “eye” with a hand drill since it will not matter if they are tilted a little. Four, five inch long, 5/16 eye bolts are inserted through these holes, with nuts/washers above and below the tube. A pair of bar clamps is used as a base to hold the jig as the vial is spun. A round 3/8 inch diameter, 18 inch long steel rod is inserted through the four eye bolts with the glass tube slid on in the middle. You must have the glass tube slid over the bar before set up. The outer pair of eye bolts is then tightened; pulling the bar ends downward forcing the bar to bend. Bend the bar in this way until it is displaced from straight by only 0.28 mm, checking with a feeler gauge/spacer combination. (For a 10 second vial) This is not much of a bend, roughly 10 times the thickness of a human hair. It is difficult to verify this bend with the feeler gauge. A large bolt can be used as a spacer, in conjunction with the feeler gauge, setting the ends of the bar at the height of the bolt, moving the bolt to the center, and bending until the feeler gauge just fits between the bolt and . When the correct bend is achieved, tighten both the top and bottom bolts to lock the curve of the bar in place. During grinding you may stop and verify the correct bend by sliding the tube aside and putting the bolt and feeler gauge in the center. Having too much bend is the greater risk so under-bend rather than over-bend. More bend means decreased sensitivity and you can always grind more after testing.
To start the grinding, the curved bar is smeared with a coarse automobile valve grinding paste and the tube spun back and forth with a wooden paddle to shape the inside of the tube. The grinding paste is that used to polish engine valves and both a coarse and fine grade is needed. They are available in a two-pack from Amazon for $12.11 as “Powerbuilt Valve Lapping Compound. To spin the tube by hand, the wooden paddles are covered with a thin sheet of rubber. To make the paddles for spinning the tube use ¼ inch thick wood and cut this into one 1.5 width and another 6 inch width. The narrow paddle was just a rectangle and the wider was cut with a handle for easier grip. In a test run it took 15-20 minutes of doing push-pull cycles with the small paddle to get the ground area out to the edges of the vial. (In his article Mr. Morris recommends a preliminary grind on a straight bar to ensure a consistent internal diameter.) Initially use a 1 inch wide paddle in the center of the vial, then as the ground ‘frosted” area reaches the edges of the vial switch a paddle that is the width of the vial. Only use enough pressure to get the tube to spin because excessive pressure will tend to flatten out the desired curve of the bar. After the desired internal shaped is achieved, the vial and bar are cleaned of coarse paste and then given a final polish with a fine grind/polishing paste to finish the inside of the tube. Clean the tube thoroughly as any residue will be floating in your vial afterwards. It is possible to change from coarse to fine paste without removing the tube form the jig. Slide the vial to one side and wipe the bar clean. You may then smear on the fine paste and resume grinding. After the first run of grinding you should test the curvature by filling and using temporary rubber caps.
The glass tubing for the vial was purchased from an on-line glass-blowers supply shop for less than $5.00 in a five foot length. This length will yield about nine 12.5 mm long vials. Shipping was about $11.00. The glass company did ask if it was OK to cut the tubing into 3 sections to decrease shipping charges. Tubing wall thickness of 2.5 mm wall was used, so enough material is available in the wall to keep it from losing strength as glass is ground away from the inside. (In retrospect I could have used 1.8 to 2.0 mm wall thickness.) The glass tube can be cut to length with a Dremel-type diamond cut-off wheel. To avoid the need for machining the end caps, a glass tube of 16 mm OD was chosen that would allow use of stock brass pipe fittings for the caps.
Caps are made from brass ‘compression fittings’ that are threaded, have six flats and cost less than $3.00 each. The ID of these caps is 16.01 mm or so. It may be necessary to touch the inside of the caps with a small sanding drum if the fit is too tight. Before gluing the caps in place a 6/32 inch hole is drilled and tapped into one of them then plugged by a screw. This is allows the vial to be filled/refilled as needed. A tiny strip of plumbers tape is wrapped around the machine screw stopper to assure sealing. Measure the thickness each of the six flats on both caps and try to match up a pair of sides of equal thickness, to be on the lower side of the vial as it is glued in place. If there are small differences, remember that the level scale is applied and adjusted after construction and can make up for slight discrepancies in the shape/thickness of the end caps. The caps are glued in place using an epoxy such as Araldite or other solvent resistant two-part clear epoxy, available for around $5.00. The curing time can be up to 12 hours. The end cap threads fill in with epoxy giving extra surface area for a proper seal. Roughening the gluing surface of the glass tube ends before gluing may also be a good idea.
The tubes are filled with denatured alcohol, leaving enough space for an air bubble 3-4 cm long. A drop of food coloring can be added for tint to make the bubble more visible. If fluid leaks over time it can be refilled in the same way.
To test the accuracy of the level during and after completing grinding, first clean the vial, fill appropriately and cap with rubber stoppers. Attach the capped vial to a thick straight edge and shim up one side with a feeler gauge of ‘T’ mm to form a triangle underneath. It is advised that you “ concentrate on getting symmetrical bending and then, when you have even grinding all around, check the vial using feeler blades, a straight edge and simple trigonometry. Some simple math/trig is used, T/L = tan A, so A = inverse tan A. If the tested sensitivity is correct you are ready to polish and assemble with brass caps. If not, you may do additional lapping as needed. The distance in mm the bubble moves when you insert the feeler, is divided by 2.5 to give the number of divisions of movement and divide the angle A by that figure to give the sensitivity of the level per division. But you will not be able to measure these distances without feeler gauges and they turn out to be only a very rough guide. You measure the distance the bubble moves when you insert the feeler, divide by 2.5 to give the number of divisions movement and divide the angle A by that figure to give the sensitivity of the level per division. (see 1st paragraph, p 41).” (Italics by B. Morris)
After testing and more grinding if needed, clean the vial very thoroughly, glue on the brass caps and fill with denatured alcohol. You must attach the scale to the vial and detailed instructions and here are detailed instructions:
“1) Print out the scale and get it copied to an overhead projection film. Cut it to a strip 100 long and 40 mm wide, which is about 7 mm less than the circumference of the tube.
2) Place the level on a flat, smooth and approximately level surface. If your hospital instrument maker has a surface plate, that would be ideal, or the top of a milling machine table.
3) On this surface will be some line which is level, so you swing the level around until the bubble is about central and make an ink mark at each end.
4) Lay a heavy straight edge along side it to mark the position accurately and reverse the level end for end. IF the bubble stays between the marks, you’ve been lucky. GOTO 6) ELSE...
5) If not, mark the ends again and swing the level to split the difference. GOTO 4)
6) Lay the strip on top of the level so the bubble is centrally between the marks and mark the position of the strip at each end on the tube. Clean other marks off the tube.
7) Carefully wrap the strip around the tube, printed side down, and secure it with a long strip of sellotape. Check that the ends are aligned with the marks ELSE remove it and GO TO 5)
8) To check, swing the level until the bubble is central on the scale, Lay the straight edge alongside and reverse end for end. The bubble should stay central.” (Italics by B. Morris)

上面的文档是一个爱好者自己制作水平泡的方法，印象中看到过一篇文章介绍圆柱角尺的圆柱度研磨，也是金刚砂一边检一边磨的作者: fobyellow 时间: 2023-2-5 09:33
Talyvel的电气原理并不是LVDT的原理，甚至也不是常见的半桥传感器，严格意义来讲是左右两个电涡流传感器，说得再白一点就是两个电感器，电感中被加以高频信号，周边就会产生交流的磁场信号，靠近的金属表面就会感应出相应的电流信号，这个感应电流信号产生的磁场和电感传感器线圈自身的磁场有抵消作用，所以就会改变这个线圈的电感量。
当左右两个线圈对称放置时，中间的金属片会随着水平仪工作面的倾斜而发生移动，向一侧靠近的同时远离另一侧，这样就相当于一侧的电感减小，另一侧的电感增大，把这两个电感进行串联，然后测量中间抽头的电压值，就可以映射为金属片的位移量，从而测量出水平仪的水平读数。
测量这个交流值的方法很多，参考电感测微仪可以得到大量的参考电路，我推崇的电路结构是双路模拟开关相敏检波，一路检出抽头送ADC，一路检出激励信号作为ADC_REF,这样大部分和连接电阻以及温度漂移的变化量会同时出现在分子和分母上，做出的电路绝对温漂会很小，用4层GT150板或者导热胶粘合模拟部分何以降低板上的温差温漂。
假如有人做的话，我可以帮助审图
