Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of multi-dimensional force sensors, and in particular to a waterproof and dustproof structure and method for a multi-dimensional force sensor. Background Art
[0002] A multi-dimensional force sensor refers to a sensor that can simultaneously measure three-dimensional orthogonal forces / torques in a Cartesian coordinate system. The research on related technologies has a long history and is widely used in intelligent collaborative robots, intelligent robot manufacturing, rehabilitation and medical robots, human-computer interaction and remote control operating systems, as well as space and deep-sea exploration.
[0003] Existing multi-dimensional force sensors, such as announcement number CN117705335B, are named as an inductive reconfigurable multi-dimensional force sensor, which relates to the field of multi-dimensional force / torque sensors. They are composed of a base, an inductance measurement module, and a force-displacement conversion device. The inductance measurement module is fixed on the base for measuring the inductance of the coil array. The force-displacement conversion device is composed of an upper cover plate, an elastic body, and a metal plate and fixed together. The multi-dimensional force / torque borne by the upper cover plate is converted into a multi-dimensional displacement / rotation of the metal plate.
[0004] However, in order to ensure force detection, there is a certain gap between the connection between the upper cover and the base of the existing multi-dimensional force sensor. Water and dust can easily enter the sensor through the gap, thereby affecting the waterproof and dustproof effect of the multi-dimensional force sensor. To this end, we provide a waterproof and dustproof structure and method for a multi-dimensional force sensor. Summary of the invention
[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a waterproof and dustproof structure and method for a multi-dimensional force sensor, so as to solve the problem in the above-mentioned background technology that in order to ensure force detection, there is a certain gap between the connection between the upper cover and the base of the existing multi-dimensional force sensor, and water and dust can easily enter the sensor through the gap, thereby affecting the waterproof and dustproof effect of the multi-dimensional force sensor.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a waterproof and dustproof structure of a multi-dimensional force sensor, comprising a sensing base, a pressure-bearing seat is installed above the sensing base, a screw rod is installed at the upper end of the pressure-bearing seat, a nut is installed on the outer wall of the screw rod, an offset water-blocking groove is provided at the connection between the pressure-bearing seat and the sensing base, a clamp positioning groove is provided at the upper and lower ends of the offset water-blocking groove, a flexible waterproof layer is provided on the outer side of the offset water-blocking groove, two limiting clamps are provided at the connection between the upper and lower ends of the flexible waterproof layer and the clamp positioning groove, and the two limiting clamps are arranged oppositely, connecting ears are provided at both ends of the limiting clamps, a docking head is provided at the front end of the sensing base, a connecting head is installed at the front end of the docking head, a wire is provided at the front end of the connecting head, and a There is a rubber positioning ring, and the rubber positioning ring is bonded and connected to the limiting clamp, a water-expandable tape patch is arranged on the outer wall of the rubber positioning ring, a protective sleeve is arranged on the outside of the connecting ear, a water-expandable filling layer is arranged inside the protective sleeve, a docking groove is arranged inside the docking groove, a male head is installed inside the docking groove, and three male heads are arranged, a docking boss is arranged at the end of the connecting head, a female head is arranged inside the docking boss, and three female heads are arranged, an offset water-blocking groove is arranged on the outside of the docking groove, a water-blocking ring sleeve is arranged on the outside of the offset water-blocking groove, a rubber convex ring is arranged on the outside of the water-blocking ring sleeve, an annular groove is arranged on the outside of the water-blocking ring sleeve, a water-expandable ring is arranged on the outside of the annular groove, and water seepage holes are arranged around the outer wall of the connecting head, and the water seepage holes extend to the back of the water-expandable ring;
[0007] By setting water-swelling materials at the joints between the butt joint and the connector, at the joints between the limit clamp and the clamp positioning groove, and at the joints between the protective cover and the limit clamp connection ear, one of the water-swelling materials is made of special rubber as the main raw material, mixed with inorganic water-absorbing materials and high-viscosity resins, etc. When the sensor is exposed to water or immersed in water on a large scale;
[0008] The water expansion ring located at the joint of the butt joint and the connector expands under the water diversion effect of the water seepage pores around the outer wall of the connector. On the one hand, it fills the gap between the connector and the butt joint by itself, and on the other hand, it tightens the plastic buckle and the slot by the expansion effect. The two effects work together to improve the waterproof performance of the joint between the butt joint and the connector.
[0009] The water-expandable patch located at the connection between the limit clamp and the clamp positioning groove can expand by its own water absorption to fill the seam between the limit clamp and the clamp positioning groove, thus delaying water ingress to a certain extent.
[0010] The water-expandable filling layer arranged inside the protective cover can absorb water and expand under the water diversion effect of the water seepage port, thereby filling the gap between the protective cover and the connecting ear, reinforcing the limit clamp to prevent it from loosening;
[0011] The above-mentioned multiple groups of structures work together to ensure that the multi-dimensional force sensor has good waterproof performance even when it is completely immersed in water.
[0012] Preferably, screw holes are provided on the outer walls of the protective cover and the connecting ear, and the protective cover and the connecting ear are connected via the screw holes and screws. A water seepage port is provided at the rear end of the protective cover, and a dustproof net is installed inside the water seepage port.
[0013] Preferably, card slots are provided inside on both sides of the docking joint, and card slots are provided on the outer walls on both sides of the docking joint, and the card slots are communicated with the card slots. Plastic buckles are installed on the ends on both sides of the connecting head. The docking joint and the connecting head are connected by a buckle type, which is easy to install. When disassembly is required, just press the plastic buckles from both sides and pull the connecting head outward.
[0014] Preferably, a waterproof and dustproof method for a waterproof and dustproof structure of a multi-dimensional force sensor comprises the following steps:
[0015] Step 1: Use the limit clamps set by the two sets of clamps to fix the flexible waterproof layer at the connection between the sensor base and the pressure-bearing seat. The flexible waterproof layer protects against water and dust to prevent water and dust from entering the connection gap between the sensor base and the pressure-bearing seat. The connection ear of the limit clamp is connected to the protective cover and fixed with screws to ensure the stability of the limit clamp;
[0016] Step 2: Plug the docking head of the multi-dimensional force sensor and the connector with wires, and fix them by cooperating with two sets of card slots on the docking head through two sets of plastic buckles on the connector. After fixation, the docking groove around the male head is engaged with the docking protrusion around the female head to achieve the first level of waterproofing. The waterproof ring sleeve on the outside of the docking protrusion is inserted into the misaligned waterproof groove on the outside of the docking groove to achieve the second level of waterproofing. The rubber convex ring on the outside of the misaligned waterproof groove is inserted into the annular groove on the outside of the waterproof ring sleeve to achieve the third level of waterproofing.
[0017] Step 3: When the multi-dimensional force sensor touches water or enters water on a large scale, the water seepage holes around the outer wall of the connector can guide water to the water expansion ring inside the connector. After the water expansion ring expands when it encounters water, on the one hand, it relies on itself to fill the gap between the connector and the butt joint, and on the other hand, it relies on the expansion effect to tighten the plastic buckle and the slot. The two effects work together to improve the waterproof performance of the connection between the butt joint and the connector. The protective cover on the connecting ear of the limit clamp leads water inward under the action of the seepage port. The water expansion filling layer in the protective cover absorbs water and expands to fill the gap between the protective cover and the connecting ear, thereby reinforcing the limit clamp. The rubber positioning ring on the inner wall of the limit clamp and the water expansion tape patch on the outer wall of the rubber positioning ring can rely on the expansion effect of the water expansion tape patch to fill the joint when the sensor is immersed and causes water to enter the limit clamp joint, thereby delaying water ingress to a certain extent.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0019] 1. The present invention provides a flexible waterproof layer at the connection between the sensor base and the pressure-bearing seat. The upper and lower ends of the flexible waterproof layer are respectively fixed to the sensor base and the pressure-bearing seat through limiting clamps. When the pressure-bearing seat is subjected to force, the flexible waterproof layer is made of flexible material and will not interfere with the force state. At the same time, the flexible waterproof layer can shield water and dust to prevent water and dust from entering the connection gap between the sensor base and the pressure-bearing seat. This solves the problem that a certain gap exists at the connection between the upper cover plate and the base of the existing multi-dimensional force sensor to ensure force detection, and water and dust can easily enter the sensor from the gap, thereby affecting the waterproof and dustproof effect of the multi-dimensional force sensor.
[0020] 2. The protective cover is placed on the outside of the connecting ear of the limit clamp and fixed by screws. The protective cover can ensure the stability of the limit clamp.
[0021] 3. By arranging a rubber positioning ring on the inner wall of the limiting clamp, when the limiting clamp fixes the flexible waterproof layer, the rubber positioning ring can be engaged with the clamp positioning groove to make the connection tighter.
[0022] 4. The docking joint and the connecting head of the multi-dimensional force sensor of the present invention are provided with multiple waterproof structures. When fixed, two groups of plastic buckles on the connecting head cooperate with two groups of card grooves on the docking head to realize the plug-in fixation of the two. After fixation, the docking groove around the male head is engaged with the docking protrusion around the female head to realize the first level of waterproofing. The water-blocking ring sleeve on the outside of the docking protrusion is inserted into the displaced water-blocking groove outside the docking groove to realize the second level of waterproofing. The rubber protrusion ring on the outside of the displaced water-blocking groove is inserted into the annular groove outside the water-blocking ring sleeve to realize the third level of waterproofing. The multiple waterproof structures cooperate with each other to avoid the situation where water seepage during power connection causes damage to the sensor.
[0023] 5. The present invention provides water-swelling materials at the joints between the butt joint and the connector, at the joints between the limit clamp and the clamp positioning groove, and at the joints between the protective cover and the limit clamp connection ear. One of the water-swelling materials is made of special rubber as the main raw material, and is mixed with inorganic water-absorbing materials and high-viscosity resins. When the sensor is exposed to water or immersed in water over a large area;
[0024] The water expansion ring located at the joint of the butt joint and the connector expands under the water diversion effect of the water seepage pores around the outer wall of the connector. On the one hand, it fills the gap between the connector and the butt joint by itself, and on the other hand, it tightens the plastic buckle and the slot by the expansion effect. The two effects work together to improve the waterproof performance of the joint between the butt joint and the connector.
[0025] The water-expandable patch located at the connection between the limit clamp and the clamp positioning groove can expand by its own water absorption to fill the seam between the limit clamp and the clamp positioning groove, thus delaying water ingress to a certain extent.
[0026] The water-expandable filling layer arranged inside the protective cover can absorb water and expand under the water diversion effect of the water seepage port, thereby filling the gap between the protective cover and the connecting ear, reinforcing the limit clamp to prevent it from loosening;
[0027] The above-mentioned multiple groups of structures work together to ensure that the multi-dimensional force sensor has good waterproof performance even when it is completely immersed in water. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The two effects work together to improve the waterproof performance of the connection between the docking head (9) and the connector (10), and the limit clamp (6) connects the ear ( The protective sleeve (7) on the connecting ear (601) draws water inward under the action of the water seepage port (702), and the water-expandable filling layer (701) in the protective sleeve (7) absorbs water and expands to fill the gap between the protective sleeve (7) and the connecting ear (601), thereby reinforcing the limiting clamp (6). When the sensor is immersed and water enters the joint of the limiting clamp (6) due to the water seepage port (702), the water-expandable tape patch (603) can fill the joint by the expansion effect of the water-expandable tape patch (603), thereby delaying the water ingress to a certain extent.
