Abstract

The present invention discloses a sensorized cover for industrial installations. The sensorized cover has a contact sensor mechanism and a proximity sensor mechanism, and includes a plurality of cover modules including one or more sensorized cover modules. Each sensorized cover module includes a plurality of active layers and a plurality of passive layers, including: a load bearing structure; a buffer layer associated with the outer side of the load bearing structure; a piezoresistive contact sensor between the buffer layers upper, which includes a piezoresistive layer disposed between a lower conductive layer and an upper conductive layer; a lower cover layer and an upper cover layer, between which a piezoresistive touch sensor is disposed; a capacitive proximity sensor, disposed in the piezoresistive Above the touch sensor, including a first conductive layer and a second conductive layer, with an intermediate layer of electrically insulating material disposed therebetween; an outer cover layer, above the capacitive proximity sensor.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to automated devices used in the industrial manufacturing sector and has been developed with particular reference to the problem of cooperation between human operators and such automated devices. The invention finds a preferred application in the field of robotics, but can also be implemented to benefit other devices used in the industrial manufacturing sector. Background technique [0002] In order to efficiently utilize the contributions of automation in manufacturing processes and thus increase the efficiency of the latter, it is necessary to make the interaction between human operators and automation devices, in particular robots, natural and safe. In this way, it is possible to entrust human operators with those processes requiring unduly complex automation, while entrusting operations including, for example, major workloads, fast execution, high precision and high quality, to automated means. [0003] To enable thes...
