Problems solved by technology

However, due to the limitations of its own material and structure, the wearable flexible sensor unit will cause low signal-to-noise ratio and lag in response to signals when testing the dynamic pressure on flexible materials (such as: the pressure between the sole of the foot and the insole). And other problems, affecting the stability of the system's response to the pressure signal and the accuracy of the test

Abstract

The invention relates to a dynamic sole pressure test insole with a multilayer sensing core structure, which comprises an insole, a signal conditioning unit, a data acquisition unit and a signal display unit, wherein a sensing core structural film sensor unit is embedded into the insole; the sensing core structural film sensor unit is formed by vertically overlapping at least two layers of polyvinylidene fluoride films, and a hard synthetic material film is embedded between contact faces of the sensing core structural film sensor unit and the insole; and the sensing core structural film sensor unit in the insole is connected with the signal conditioning unit, the data acquisition unit and the signal display unit which are sequentially connected in series. The signal-to-noise ratio of a PVDF piezoelectric film sensor and the corresponding lag quality of the test insole on dynamic signals are improved by adopting the multilayer sensing core structure and the design of the spaced material films; and the test insole can be put into various daily worn shoes to perform test, and can provide the basis for biomechanical analysis of human gait and comfort evaluation of shoes.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of pressure distribution measurement systems, in particular to a dynamic plantar pressure test insole with a multi-layer sensing core structure. Background technique [0002] The characteristics of plantar pressure distribution are one of the important indicators to reveal the law of human gait. The measurement of plantar pressure distribution has important guiding significance in the fields of biomechanics, rehabilitation medicine, orthopedic surgery, sports training, and shoemaking. The pressure test board and test bench technology currently used in clinical practice has great space limitations and is not wearable. Therefore, developing wearable pressure shoes or pressure insoles has become an important work in this technical field. The main products successfully developed are: American TEKSCAN company Mobile insole system, using TEKSCAN patented sensor, can provide gait pressure analysis, balance analysis and an...
