Patent attributes
An artificial fingertip sliding tactile sensor includes a PVDF film, a rubber fingertip, a filling liquid, a sealing plug, a hydraulic sensor, a housing, an inner framework, and strain gauges. The rubber fingertip is a hemispherical cavity. The PVDF film is attached to the outside of the rubber fingertip. The sealing plug seals the rubber fingertip, and the hydraulic sensor is installed at the bottom of the sealing plug. The main body of the housing is a rigid cylindrical structure. The top of the housing is provided with a circular opening, and the bottom of the housing is a flange-like structure. Four circular through holes are uniformly distributed on the flange-like structure. The inner framework includes a cylindrical head, a vertical strain rod and a base. The strain gauges are respectively attached on four sides of the vertical strain rod and adjacent to the base.
