Embodiment 1

[0043] see figure 1 , the flexible three-dimensional force sensor consists of the first layer of wires 1, the second layer of wires 3, the third layer of wires 5 and the fourth layer of wires 7, which are parallel to each other and have the same spacing between the layers of wires, and the first layer of wires 1, the second layer of wires The layer wire 3, the third layer wire 5 and the fourth layer wire 7 are composed of a plurality of first layer electrodes 2, second layer electrodes 4, third layer electrodes 6 and fourth layer electrodes 8 connected at equal intervals respectively. Wherein, the first layer of wires 1 and the third layer of wires 5 are arranged in parallel, the second layer of wires 3 and the fourth layer of wires 7 are arranged in parallel, and the first layer of wires 1 and the second layer of wires 3 are arranged vertically, and the second layer of wires 3 It is vertically arranged with the third-layer wire 5 , and the third-layer wire 5 is vertically arr...

Embodiment 2

[0045]When the force is applied to the flexible three-dimensional force sensor, the force comes from three different directions, that is, the forces in the X direction, the Y direction and the Z direction are combined, and finally the first layer of electrodes 2 and the second layer of electrodes 4, the first layer of electrodes The conductive rubber between the third-layer electrodes 6 and the fourth-layer electrodes 8 is squeezed, and the displacement changes, thereby changing the resistance value. The resistance value before and after the change is obtained by row and column scanning, combined with the state equation of the conductive rubber F=f(Δi), Δi is the displacement in the X, Y, and Z directions, and the f function in the formula is determined by the properties of the conductive rubber.

Embodiment 3

[0052] see image 3 , the manufacturing method of the flexible three-dimensional force sensor is:

[0053] Among them, steps 1 to 10 are the method of mass-producing microelectrodes and wires by using the SU-8+PDMS-based UV-LIGA process, and steps 11 to 12 are the assembly and curing of the sensor.

[0054] Step 1 Pretreatment of the substrate

[0055] Silicon wafers are used as substrates and cleaned. It is mainly washed with isopropyl or methanol. If there is oil stain, it needs to be cleaned with methylene dichloride to completely remove it, and then the substrate is dried.

[0056] Step 2 throw glue

[0057] Combining the parameters of SU-8 provided by IBM, select SU-850 photoresist, rotate at a speed of 250r / min for 10 seconds, and then rotate at a speed of 1200r / min for 30 seconds to complete the coating with a thickness of 100 microns.

[0058] Step 3 pre-bake

[0059] In order to reduce the generation of thermal stress in the SU-8 glue and the resulting influence,...

Abstract

The invention discloses a flexible three-dimensional force sensor based on flexible conductive rubber and a manufacturing method thereof. The base body of the flexible three-dimensional force sensor is flexible conductive rubber; the middle of the flexible three-dimensional force sensor consists of four layers of micro electrodes and a lead array; the lead of each layer is externally connected with a signal processing circuit; and the magnitude of the three-dimensional force is measured by detecting the change of the resistance value. The key to the flexible three-dimensional force sensor is the manufacturing of the micro electrodes and the lead array. In the patent, the micro electrodes and the lead array are manufactured by the UV-LIGA technology based on SU-8+PDMS; then the manufactured micro electrodes and lead array are put into a die cavity of the sensor, and liquid flexible conductive rubber is injected into the die cavity; and finally, the flexible three-dimensional force sensor can be manufactured after a certain time of cooling and curing. Due to a small space between the micro electrodes, the sensitivity and accuracy of the sensor are greatly improved, and the sensor can be produced by batch.
