Problems solved by technology

This kind of transmission mechanism introduces kinematic pair friction when transferring the torque / force of the driver to the fingers, which reduces the feedback experience of free space simulation, and the transmission mechanism increases the weight of the glove, which will cause finger fatigue when worn for a long time

Abstract

The invention relates to a force feedback glove based on soft variable-stiffness joint drivers. The force feedback glove comprises the joint drivers which are arranged on joints of fingers and used for limiting motion of the finger joints. Each joint driver comprises a variable-stiffness sealing structures and an air pipe, wherein the air pipe communicates with the interior of the variable-stiffness sealing structure. A control system conducts air inflation or air extraction on the variable-stiffness sealing structures through the air pipes, and controls stiffness of the variable-stiffness sealing structures by controlling the air pressure in the variable-stiffness sealing structures. The joint drivers are directly mounted on the finger joints, the force feedback glove is designed througha principle of limiting joint movement to limit joint movement to simulate the feeling of finger grasping, and thus kinematic pair friction and the weight of a transmission mechanism are avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a wearable force feedback device, in particular to a force feedback glove based on a soft variable stiffness joint driver. Background technique [0002] Existing force feedback gloves are usually composed of a driver and a transmission mechanism. For example, a force feedback glove used for virtual reality technology is disclosed in the invention application CN107927950A. There is also a bending control mechanism at each finger of the glove. The bending control mechanism It includes a motor and a toothed belt, and a second raised area is set up on the fingernails of the five fingertips of the coat. The motor is arranged in the second raised area, and the output shaft of the motor is connected with a gear shaft. The belt The gear shaft is meshed with the toothed belt. The toothed belt extends from the back of the hand to the fingertip along the length of the finger of the glove and then extends back to the palm around the finger...
