Abstract

A micro-displacement amplifying apparatus comprises two sets of asymmetrical amplifying structures; each set of asymmetrical amplifying structure comprises a plurality of asymmetrical amplifying units connected in series by flexible hinges; the asymmetrical amplifying unit is used for amplifying a micro-displacement; the two sets of asymmetrical amplifying structures are in opposite positions and overlap with each other; the input end and output end are coupled to the asymmetrical amplifying unit by a flexible hinge, respectively; the input end is used for inputting the micro-displacement to the asymmetrical amplifying unit, and the output end is used for outputting the amplified displacement; the two contacting input ends are fixed and coupled to each other, and the two contacting output ends are fixed and coupled to each other. The present disclosure further discloses an amplification method of the micro-displacement amplifying apparatus.
