Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sensor technology, and in particular to a flexible force-sensitive sensor bundle arrangement structure. Background Technology

[0002] A flexible force sensor is a flexible electronic device that can sense external forces such as pressure, strain, and tension and convert them into electrical signals. Flexible force sensors are characterized by their bendability, stretchability, and ability to conform to complex surfaces, enabling them to adapt to non-planar environments.

[0003] In existing technologies, some flexible force sensors utilize the characteristic that the resistance of conductive materials changes when subjected to force. When an external force is applied, the internal structure of the material deforms, causing changes in the mobility or concentration of internal charge carriers, which in turn causes a change in resistance. The electrical signal is then converted into a digital display.

[0004] However, in existing technologies, some flexible force sensors have a large number of wires extending from the flexible material to connect to the subsequent conversion element and other components. These wires are prone to tangling and can cause irreversible damage to the device. Therefore, a flexible force sensor wire arrangement structure is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a flexible force-sensitive sensor-based wire arrangement structure, which aims to improve the problem of difficult wire management and easy knotting in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a flexible force-sensitive sensor wire arrangement structure, comprising a flexible material and a circular wire housing, wherein multiple wires a are fixedly connected to the rear side of the flexible material, a rotating ring is slidably connected to the inner wall of the circular wire housing, multiple limiting posts are slidably connected to the inner wall of the rotating ring, multiple linkage rods are fixedly connected to the front side of the multiple limiting posts, a limiting ring b is fixedly connected to the rear side of the multiple limiting posts, a limiting ring a is slidably connected to the outer wall of the multiple linkage rods, a protective ring is fixedly connected to one end of the multiple linkage rods, and a lever is fixedly connected to the right side of the rotating ring;

[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution: a conversion element is fixedly connected to the rear side of the wire a, a wire b is fixedly connected to the rear side of the conversion element, a correction element is fixedly connected to the rear side of the wire b, and a protective shell is fixedly connected to the bottom of the correction element.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution: the left side of the wire b is fixedly connected to the right side of the conversion element, and the right side of the wire b is fixedly connected to the left side of the circuit board;

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution: a socket is fixedly connected to the front side of the conversion element, and a wire a is fixedly connected to the front side of the socket. One end of the wire a is fixedly connected to the rear side of the flexible material, and the other end of the wire a is fixedly connected to the front side of the socket.

[0012] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. In this utility model, by turning the lever to drive the ring to rotate, the internal linkage rod moves up and down under the action of the limiting ring. Several linkage rods are arranged in the internal ring, so that the internal protective ring is pushed to tighten the internal wires. When the lever is turned in the opposite direction, the internal linkage rod drives the flexible protective ring to extend, thereby realizing free control of the tightness of the wires and avoiding physical damage to the internal wires.

[0014] 2. In this utility model, the device base is fixed to the protective shell with screws, and the wires after passing through the circular wire harness are respectively inserted into the limiting plate.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a flexible force-sensitive sensor wire harness management structure, including a flexible material 1 and a circular wire harness shell 4. Multiple wires a2 are fixedly connected to the rear side of the flexible material 1 for transmitting resistance to a rear assembly. A rotating ring 5 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the circular wire harness shell 4. Multiple limiting posts 6 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the rotating ring 5. Multiple linkage rods 7 are fixedly connected to the front side of the multiple limiting posts 6. A limiting ring b11 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the multiple limiting posts 6. A limiting ring a8 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the multiple linkage rods 7. A protective ring 9 is fixedly connected to one end of the multiple linkage rods 7. The protective ring is made of flexible material to reduce damage to the wires a2. A lever 10 is fixedly connected to the right side of the rotating ring 5. Moving the lever 10 allows for free tightening of the wire harness, reducing physical damage to the wires a2 caused by excessive tightening.

[0024] Reference Figure 5 A socket 16 is fixedly connected to the front side of the conversion element 15, and a wire a2 is fixedly connected to the front side of the socket 16. The socket 16 provides an interface for the wire a2. One end of the wire a2 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the flexible material 1, and the other end of the wire a2 is fixedly connected to the front side of the socket 16. A screw a19 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the conversion element 15, and a support plate 18 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the screw a19. The screw a19 is used to fix the support plate 18, and the support plate 18 provides support for the upper structure. A limit plate 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 18. The wire a2 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limit plate 17, and a screw b20 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the support plate 18. The wire a2 passes through the hole in the limit plate 17 to prevent the wire a2 from getting tangled and knotted, which facilitates later maintenance.

[0025] Reference Figure 4 A conversion element 15 is fixedly connected to the rear side of wire a2. A wire b13 is fixedly connected to the rear side of conversion element 15. A correction element 12 is fixedly connected to the rear side of wire b13. This element is used to correct the transmitted resistance signal before sending it to other elements. A protective shell 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of correction element 12. A circuit board 14 is fixedly connected to the top of protective shell 3. This circuit board 14 is used to process resistance data. One end of wire b13 is fixedly connected to the rear side of circuit board 14. The other end of wire b13 is fixedly connected to the front side of correction element 12. The left side of wire b13 is fixedly connected to the right side of conversion element 15. The right side of wire b13 is fixedly connected to the left side of circuit board 14. This enables the flexible force sensor to be used in non-planar environments.

[0026] Working principle: By moving the lever 10, the internal rotating ring 5 is rotated, causing the linkage rod 7 and the limiting post 6 to move inside the hole under the limiting action of the limiting ring a8 and the hole inside the rotating ring 5. This causes the protective ring 9 to tighten and extend, thereby achieving free adjustment of the tightening force on the wire a2 and avoiding physical damage to the wire a2 due to excessive tightening force.

[0027] Next, the wire a2 is isolated by fixing it to the hole on the limiting plate 17 on the protective shell 3 through screws a19 and b20, and then connected to the socket 16 on the conversion element 15. This not only facilitates maintenance in the future, but also prevents the wire a2 from getting tangled due to too many wires.
