Embodiment
In order to make the purpose , technical scheme and advantage of the present invention be clearer, it is right below in conjunction with drawings and Examples The present invention is further elaborated.It should be appreciated that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention, and It is not used in the restriction present invention.
Referring to Fig. 1, Fig. 2, the artificial sensitive skin flexible compound type sensor array of intelligent robot is used in the present embodiment Structure type be:The sensing unit of forming array is using flexible polyimide circuits plate as substrate, on the same face of substrate Pressure sensor 1, temperature sensor 2 and humidity sensor 3 are set respectively;The apparent height of pressure sensor is higher than TEMP Device and humidity sensor, form the overall distribution form (as shown in Figure 2) in male and fomale(M&F).

Pressure sensor is used as pressure sensitive material by the use of carbon black filled silicon rubber;Temperature sensor fills silicon rubber with carbon fiber Glue is as temperature-sensitive material;Pressure sensitive material and temperature-sensitive material therein exist《Functional material》The second phase in 2010, Report is disclosed in " conducing composite material for being used for composite flexible touch sensor is studied " that Zhao Xing, Huang Ying et al. are delivered Lead;Humidity sensor exists by the use of carbon nano-tube filled silicon rubber as humidity sensitive material, this material《Functional material》2012 Existing public affairs in " humidity sensitivity of multi-walled carbon nanotube/silicon rubber composite material " that 06 interim Lian Chao, Huang Ying et al. is delivered Open report)
Shown in Fig. 2, on the surface of substrate 4, the pressure sensitive material of compound transducer unit, temperature-sensitive material, humidity Sensitive material and positioned at substrate and pressure sensitive material, temperature-sensitive material, the electrode composition knot between humidity sensitive material Structure is closely overall, and wherein the apparent height of pressure sensor 1 is 2mm, temperature sensor 2 and humidity sensor 3 surface height Spend for 0.5mm.
Fig. 1 show the electrode structure of compound transducer unit.Pressure sensing wherein in compound transducer unit Device, temperature sensor, the electrode of humidity sensor use interdigitated electrode structure.Pressure is eliminated in compound transducer unit, Temperature, the method that humidity interferes are as follows:
Because influence of the humidity to pressure and temperature sensitive material is little, i.e. humidity change is to pressure and temperature sensor Influence can be ignored.So only consider the interference between temperature and pressure sensor, when pressure and temp changes, pressure sensor Output resistance RF=R0 (1+k1F+a1 △ T), in formula:RF is that pressure sensor is under pressure F (0<F≤FN) when pressure sensor Resistance;Resistance when R0 does not stress for pressure sensor;FN is the measurable maximum pressure of pressure sensor, is measured by experiment; K1 is pressure-resistance coefficient of pressure sensor, is measured by experimental calibration;A1 is the temperature-resistance coefficient of pressure sensor, Measured by experimental calibration.
Because Sensor Design is into concavo-convex, pressure sensor is higher than temperature sensor and humidity sensor, and combined type passes Influence of the pressure to temperature sensor in unit and humidity sensor suffered by sensor cell can be neglected.So during temperature change, Temperature sensor output resistance is RT=R0 (1+a2 △ T), wherein, RT is temperature sensor in temperature T (T0<T≤Tc) under Resistance;T0 can measure minimum temperature for temperature sensor and can be measured by experiment;Tc is the measurable maximum temperature of temperature sensor It can be measured by experiment;R0 is that resistance of the temperature sensor at a temperature of T0 can be measured by experiment;α 2 is resistance temperature sensor temperature Degree coefficient can be measured by experimental calibration;△ T=T-T0.Compound transducer unit then can be surveyed by equation RT=R0 (1+a2 △ T) On accurate temperature T and △ T.Again in the hope of △ T bring into RF=R0 (1+k1F+a1 △ T) can obtain combined type sensing Suffered pressure F on device unit.Can be in the hope of the temperature and pressure in each compound transducer unit by this computational methods Power can pressure release sensor temperature interference.
Fig. 3 show the compound transducer array combined by compound transducer unit.Each compound transducer Unit spacing is 3mm.The size and shape of array can adjust as needed.Compound transducer array is due to being multiple combined types Sensor combinations are formed so pressure field can be gathered simultaneously, temperature field and moisture field information.
