TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of human motion monitoring, in particular to a skin sensor for multi-monitoring of human motion signals and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] In today's high-speed development of microelectronics and material technology, a large number of new microelectronic devices with multiple functions and high integration are being developed, and they show an unprecedented application prospect in various fields of people's daily life. With the gradual enhancement of health awareness, more and more people begin to pay attention to their own health conditions of exercise. The monitoring of human motion signals is of great significance for scientific and reasonable fitness and rehabilitation training. However, the traditional motion monitoring equipment has the problems of insufficient flexibility, insufficient comfort, and single signal acquisition which is difficult to comprehensively detect the human motion condition. In order to solve these problems, it is of great significance to develop a wearable skin sensor with multiple sensing principles. SUMMARY
[0003] The main purpose of the present application is to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings and deficiencies of the prior art, and to provide a skin sensor for multi-monitoring of human motion signals.
[0004] A skin sensor for multi-monitoring of human motion signals, comprising a porous elastomer substrate, a first electrode and a second electrode arranged at both ends of the porous elastomer substrate, the porous elastomer substrate is a porous hole film, one half of the porous elastomer substrate provided with the first electrode is deposited with a negative material, one half of the porous elastomer substrate provided with the second electrode is deposited with a positive material, the negative material and the positive material are located in the hole, the first electrode and the negative material form a first friction pair, and the second electrode and the positive material form a second friction pair; when the muscle relaxes or contracts, the potential difference generated between the first electrode and the second electrode is used to measure the electromyographic signal, and the induced potential generated between the negative material and the first electrode and between the positive material and the second electrode is used to measure the triboelectric signal.
[0005] The skin sensor has two sensing principles, one is to measure the electromyographic signal through the electrode, and the other is to measure the muscle motion signal based on the triboelectric principle, i.e. the triboelectric signal. The electromyographic signal can distinguish the movement of the muscle under different forces, and the triboelectric signal can distinguish the movement of the muscle under different amplitudes. The present application combines the two signals and applies them to the same sensor, which can more fully reflect the movement of the muscle. At the same time, the skin sensor is in the form of a whole film, which can be directly attached to the surface of the human muscle, is more comfortable than other sensors, and avoids the problems of restraint and poor air permeability.
[0006] In an embodiment of one of the embodiments, the porous elastomer substrate is rectangular, and the porous elastomer substrate is a porous sponge-like elastomer.
[0007] In an embodiment of one of the embodiments, the elastomer is an elastic material such as polydimethylsiloxane, fluorinated silicone rubber, polyurethane, hydrogenated styrene-butadiene block copolymer, etc.
[0008] In an embodiment of one of the embodiments, the negative material can be an electron-donating material such as polytetrafluoroethylene, polyvinylidene fluoride, polyvinyl chloride, polyimide, etc.
[0009] In an embodiment of one of the embodiments, the positive material can be a nano-gold particle, nylon, or ethyl cellulose, and the elastomer is polydimethylsiloxane, fluorinated silicone rubber, polyurethane, hydrogenated styrene-butadiene block copolymer, etc.
[0010] In an embodiment of one of the embodiments, the two short sides of the skin sensor are attached to the skin by medical tape or double-sided tape.
[0011] In an embodiment of one of the embodiments, the first electrode and the second electrode are in the form of a strip, and the first electrode and the second electrode are a flexible stretchable conductive composite material.
[0012] In an embodiment of one of the embodiments, the flexible stretchable conductive composite material is a carbon fiber / polymer composite material, a conductive fiber / elastomer composite material, or a conductive polymer / elastomer composite material.
[0013] In an embodiment of one of the embodiments, when the muscle contracts, an action potential is generated and propagates along the muscle direction, sequentially passing through the first electrode and the second electrode, so that a potential difference is generated between the two electrodes, and the frequency of the electromyographic signal formed by the superposition of multiple action potentials is in the range of 50-150 Hz. When the muscle moves, the friction pairs in the pores of the porous elastomer substrate are separated after being in contact under the action of external force, the negative material is negatively charged, and the positive material is positively charged. These pores collectively generate an induced potential at the first electrode and the second electrode. When the muscle contracts, the distance between the negative material and the first electrode and the distance between the positive material and the second electrode decrease, and the induced potential decreases; when the muscle relaxes, the distance between the negative material and the first electrode and the distance between the positive material and the second electrode increase, and the induced potential increases. These changes in induced potential are the triboelectric signal, which reflects the movement state of the muscle, and the frequency of the triboelectric signal is below 10 Hz. The electromyographic signal and the triboelectric signal are separated by a filter.
[0014] In an embodiment of one of the embodiments, the first electrode and the second electrode are coated with conductive paste or conductive gel, and the purpose of the conductive paste or conductive gel is to reduce the contact impedance of the first electrode and the second electrode with the skin.

[0048] When the human motion muscle is relaxed or contracted, the potential difference between the first electrode 2 and the second electrode 3 is used to measure the myoelectric signal, and the induced potential between the negative material 4 and the first electrode 2 and the positive material 5 and the second electrode 3 is generated, and the induced potential is used to measure the triboelectric signal.
[0049] The epidermal sensor has two sensing principles, one is to measure the myoelectric signal through the first electrode 2 and the second electrode 3, and the other is to measure the muscle movement signal based on the triboelectric principle, i.e. the triboelectric signal. The myoelectric signal can distinguish the movement of the muscle under different forces, and the triboelectric signal can distinguish the movement of the muscle under different amplitudes, and the present application combines the two signals and applies them to the same sensor, which can more fully reflect the movement of the muscle. Meanwhile, the epidermal sensor is in a whole film shape, can be directly attached to the muscle surface of the human body, is more comfortable than other sensors, and avoids the problems of restraint and air impermeability.
[0050] More specifically, please refer to Figure 3, the porous elastomer base 1 is rectangular, the porous elastomer base 1 is a porous sponge-like elastomer 11, and the elastomer 11 is polydimethylsiloxane. In use, the epidermal sensor is attached to the human epidermis near the muscle belly, the electrode side is in contact with the human skin, the long side is along the muscle direction, and the short side is perpendicular to the muscle direction. In use, the two short sides of the epidermal sensor are attached to the skin by medical tape or double-sided tape. More specifically, the first electrode 2 and the second electrode 3 are coated with conductive paste or conductive gel, and the purpose of setting the conductive paste or conductive gel is to reduce the contact impedance of the first electrode 2 and the second electrode 3 with the skin.
[0051] More specifically, the first electrode 2 and the second electrode 3 are in the form of a strip, and the first electrode 2 and the second electrode 3 are flexible stretchable conductive composite materials. The flexible stretchable conductive composite material is a self-carbon fiber / polymer composite material, a conductive fiber / elastic material composite material, or a conductive polymer / elastic material composite material.
[0052] More specifically, please refer to Figure 2 When the muscle contracts, an action potential is generated and propagates along the muscle direction, sequentially passing through the first electrode 2 and the second electrode 3, so that a potential difference is generated between the two electrodes, and the frequency of the electromyographic signal formed by the superposition of multiple action potentials is in the range of 50-150 Hz. When the muscle moves, the frictional pairs in the pores of the porous elastomer base 1 are separated under the action of external force, the negative material 4 is negatively charged, and the positive material 5 is positively charged, and these pores collectively generate an induced potential at the first electrode 2 and the second electrode 3. When the muscle contracts, the distance between the negative material 4 and the positive material 5 decreases, and the induced potential decreases; when the muscle relaxes, the distance between the negative material 4 and the first electrode 2 and the distance between the positive material 5 and the second electrode 3 increase, and the induced potential increases. These changing induced potentials are triboelectric signals, which reflect the movement state of the muscle, and the frequency of the triboelectric signal is below 10 Hz. The electromyographic signal and the triboelectric signal are separated by a filter.
[0053] The main component of the electromyographic signal is in the range of 50-150 Hz, and the frequency of the triboelectric signal is below 10 Hz, so they can be separated by a filter. The electromyographic signal can distinguish the movement of the muscle under different forces (the greater the muscle force, the greater the electromyographic signal), and the triboelectric signal can distinguish the movement of the muscle under different amplitudes (the greater the muscle movement amplitude, the greater the triboelectric signal). The combination of the two signals can more fully reflect the movement of the muscle.

Figure 7 As can be seen, the amplitude of the electromyographic signal remains basically unchanged under different gripping ranges, while the amplitude of the triboelectric signal changes significantly, and the larger the gripping range, the larger the amplitude of the triboelectric signal.
