Embodiment Construction

[0012] Below by embodiment and in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the present invention will be further described:

[0013] to combine figure 1 — image 3 As shown, a wearable robot skin based on multilayer airbags is mainly composed of an installation layer 1, an epidermal layer 2, an airbag 3, a one-way valve 4, a flexible support frame 5, a pressure sensor 6, a temperature sensor 7, a connecting wire 8, The data collection equipment consists of 9 components.

[0014] The installation layer 1 is used to be in close contact with the robot body, and several layered airbags 3 are interposed between the skin layer 2 and the installation layer 1, and are wrapped by the skin layer 2 and the installation layer 1.

[0015] Both the installation layer 1 and the skin layer 2 are made of flexible materials, and each airbag 3 is equipped with a one-way valve 4 through which the airbag 3 is filled with gas. Each airbag 3 is provided with a flexible support frame 5 for mounting ...

Abstract

The invention discloses wearable robot skin based on multiple layers of air bags. The wearable robot skin comprises an epidermal layer, an installation layer used for clinging to a robot body, and a plurality of layers of air bags arranged between and wrapped with the epidermal layer and the installation layer; each of the installation layer and the epidermal layer is made of a flexible material; each of the air bags is equipped with a one-way valve used for inflating; a flexible support frame is arranged in each of the air bags and used for installing and fixing a pressure sensor and a temperature sensor; a connecting wire is placed in each of the flexible support frames and used for connecting the pressure sensor and the temperature sensor in each of the air bags with data acquisition equipment outside the robot skin; the I/O channels of the data acquisition equipment are in one-to-one correspondence to the air bags. The wearable robot skin based on the multiple layers of air bags is simple in structure, economic and reliable, endows a robot with tactile sensation, and has a broad application prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a robot skin, which can be used in the fields of robot human-computer interaction and the like. Background technique [0002] Robots are not only widely used in the industrial field, but also gradually in the service field. It is believed that the next stage of development in robotics is human-machine integration and harmonious coexistence. In order to achieve human-machine integration, the safety of robots must be solved. An important requirement is that robots must have certain environmental perception capabilities, such as vision and touch. The current research on machine vision has been relatively in-depth, but the research on robot haptics is still relatively small, and there is an urgent need for more economical and practical robot skins to adapt to the advent of the era of human-machine integration. [0003] The current general technology only provides a common solution to prevent robot collisions, such as the use of r...
