As shown in fig. 1 and 2, a finger structure according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a first knuckle 100, a second knuckle 200, a connecting assembly 300, and a drive assembly 400; a connection assembly 300, comprising: a connecting bar 310 for connecting the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200, and a movable unit 320 for fixing a position between the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200; the connecting rod 310 is rotatably connected with the second knuckle 200, and the connecting rod 310 is connected with the first knuckle 100; the second knuckle 200 is rotatably connected with the first knuckle 100; the driving assembly 400 is connected to the second knuckle 200 and the movable unit 320, respectively, to drive the movable unit 320 to slide along the connecting rod 310, limiting the relative rotational position between the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200.
For example, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the finger structure has two states, the first state is a free rotation state between the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200, and the finger structure is in an active state, and no torque is transmitted between the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200; the second is a fixed state between the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200, and the finger structure is in a force feedback state, so that torque is transmitted between the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200. Further, the finger structure is the structure of the exoskeleton, namely the finger structure is matched with the outer side of the human finger to act.
When the finger structure is in the active state, the active unit 320 is not connected to the second knuckle 200, and the second knuckle 200 can rotate on the connecting rod 310, so that the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200 can freely rotate relatively, the fit degree of the finger structure and the human finger is improved, and the degree of freedom of the human finger is improved.
In the process of converting the finger structure from the active state to the force feedback state, the driving assembly 400 drives the active unit 320 to slide on the connecting rod 310, when the active unit 320 is connected with the second finger joint 200, under the pressure of the driving assembly 400 and the active unit 320, the first finger joint 100 and the second finger joint 200 are in the locking state, so that the finger structure is converted into the force feedback state, the relative position between the first finger joint 100 and the second finger joint 200 is fixed, the position of the finger of the human body is fixed, the force feedback effect of the finger structure on the finger of the human body is realized, and the experience of human-computer interaction is improved.
Further, the connection between the movable unit 320 and the driving assembly 400 may be provided as a fixed connection, or a contact connection. When the movable unit 320 is fixedly connected to the driving assembly 400, during the process of converting the finger structure from the force feedback state to the active state, the driving assembly 400 drives the movable unit 320 to slide on the connecting rod 310, which facilitates the release of the connection between the movable unit 320 and the second knuckle 200, so that the relative free rotation between the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200 can be realized again. When the movable unit 320 is in contact connection with the driving assembly 400, during the process of the finger structure changing from the force feedback state to the active state, the driving assembly 400 is slowly reset, and the pressure on the movable unit 320 is reduced, so that the movable unit 320 reduces the pressure on the second finger joint 200, and further the pressure between the first finger joint 100 and the second finger joint 200 is reduced, the torque transmission capacity between the first finger joint 100 and the second finger joint 200 is weakened, and when the friction force between the first finger joint 100 and the second finger joint 200 is weakened to a certain extent, the first finger joint 100 and the second finger joint 200 can freely rotate relative to each other again.
Further, the connection between the connection rod 310 and the first knuckle 100 may be configured as a fixed connection or a rotational connection. When the connecting rod 310 is fixedly connected with the first knuckle 100, the second knuckle 200 is rotated on the connecting rod 310, so that the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200 can rotate relative to each other; when the connecting rod 310 is rotatably connected to the first knuckle 100, the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200 can be rotated with respect to each other by rotating the first knuckle 100 on the connecting rod 310, or rotating the second knuckle 200 on the connecting rod 310, or simultaneously rotating the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200 on the connecting rod 310.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the connection assembly 300 further comprises: an elastic unit 330 for generating an opposing force between the second finger 200 and the movable unit 320; the elastic unit 330 is connected to the connection bar 310, the second knuckle 200 and the movable unit 320, respectively.
For example, as shown in fig. 2, the elastic unit 330 generates an opposing force between the second knuckle 200 and the movable unit 320, prevents a collision between the second knuckle 200 and the movable unit 320, and effectively protects the second knuckle 200 and the movable unit 320.
Meanwhile, the elastic unit 330 can drive the movable unit 320 to reset during the process of the finger structure transforming from the force feedback state to the active state. Specifically, when the driving assembly 400 is slowly reset, the movable unit 320 is also slowly reset along with the movement of the driving assembly 400 under the action of the elastic unit 330, so that the connection between the movable unit 320 and the second knuckle 200 is released, and the relative free rotation between the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200 can be realized again.
Further, the elastic unit 330 may be coupled to the second finger 200 and the movable unit 320 in a rotatable manner or in a contact manner. When the elastic unit 330 is rotatably coupled to the second knuckle 200 and the movable unit 320, respectively, one end of the elastic unit 330 is fixed to the second knuckle 200, the other end of the elastic unit 330 is fixed to the movable unit 320, and the elastic unit 330 can rotate on the second knuckle 200 and the movable unit 320 when the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200 rotate with each other. When the elastic unit 330 is in contact-type connection with the second finger joint 200 and the movable unit 320, respectively, the elastic unit 330 is connected with the second finger joint 200 and the movable unit 320 only when the driving assembly 400 drives the movable unit 320 to move and the movable unit 320 slides on the connecting rod 310 to a certain position.
In some embodiments of the invention, the activity unit 320 comprises: a movable plate 321, a first fixed member 322, a bearing 323 and a sliding rod 324.
For example, as shown in fig. 3, the first fixing element 322 is connected to the movable plate 321 and the bearing 323, respectively, and the first fixing element 322 effectively fixes the position of the movable plate 321, so that the driving assembly 400 can effectively drive the movable plate 321 to slide; the sliding rod 324 is rotatably connected with the bearing 323, the sliding rod 324 is slidably connected with the first knuckle 100, and under the action of the bearing 323, the sliding rod 324 can realize rolling sliding in the first knuckle 100, so that friction between the sliding rod 324 and the first knuckle 100 is reduced, the sliding rod 324 is effectively protected, and the sliding efficiency of the sliding rod 324 is improved. Furthermore, the arrangement of the sliding rod 324 enables bending moment to be transmitted between the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200, so that the relation between adjacent real knuckles is better simulated, and the accuracy of force feedback is improved.
The movable plate 321 is slidably connected to the connecting rod 310, so that the movable plate 321 is respectively abutted to the driving assembly 400, the elastic unit 330 and the second knuckle 200, that is, the movable plate 321 is in contact connection with the driving assembly 400, the elastic unit 330 and the second knuckle 200. When the finger structure is converted from the active state to the force feedback state, the driving assembly 400 abuts against the movable plate 321, the movable plate 321 is driven to slide on the connecting rod 310, and the movable plate 321 abuts against the elastic unit 330 and the second finger joint 200, that is, the first finger joint 100 and the second finger joint 200 are fixed, so that the torque is transmitted between the first finger joint 100 and the second finger joint 200.
Specifically, the movable plate 321 and the elastic unit 330 are disposed in an abutting manner, so as to facilitate relative rotation between the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200. Further, since the movable plate 321 is fixed on the first fixing member 322, and the position between the first fixing member 322 and the first knuckle 100 is relatively fixed, so that the movable plate 321 cannot rotate and roll on the connecting rod 310, the movable plate 321 and the driving assembly 400 are abutted to each other, so that the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200 can rotate effectively.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the movable plate 321 is provided with a first through hole 3211 and a connecting block 3212, and the first fixing member 322 is provided with a first connecting hole 3221.
For example, as shown in fig. 3, the connecting block 3212 is in fit connection with the first connecting hole 3221, so as to effectively fix the position between the movable plate 321 and the first fixing member 322, so that the driving assembly 400 can effectively drive the movable plate 321 to slide; meanwhile, the installation and combination structure facilitates separation and combination of all components, and maintenance is facilitated. The movable plate 321 is slidably connected to the connecting rod 310 through the first through hole 3211, such that the movable plate 321 can slide on the connecting rod 310, and the relative position between the first finger joint 100 and the second finger joint 200 can be adjusted.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the first knuckle 100 is provided with a first elongated slot 110 for sliding the sliding rod 324.
For example, as shown in fig. 4, the first long slot 110 is slidably connected to the sliding rod 324, so that the sliding rod 324 can slide stably on the first knuckle 100; meanwhile, the position deviation between the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200 can be prevented in the force feedback state, and the accuracy of the force feedback can be improved.
In some embodiments of the present invention, a first brake disc 325 and a second brake disc 210 are also included.
For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the connecting rod 310 is rotatably coupled to the second brake disc 210, which improves the efficiency of the relative rotation between the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200. A second brake disc 210 is attached to the second knuckle 200 such that the second brake disc 210 is secured to the second knuckle 200; the first brake disc 325 is connected with the movable unit 320, so that when the driving assembly 400 drives the movable unit 320 to slide on the connecting rod 310, the movable unit 320 can drive the first brake disc 325 to slide on the connecting rod 310, so that the second brake disc 210 is in concave-convex connection with the first brake disc 325.
The friction coefficient between second brake disc 210 and first brake disc 325 has been improved to the mode of unsmooth connection, improves frictional force under the prerequisite of same pressure promptly to improved the locking force between second brake disc 210 and the first knuckle 100, prevented to take place relative rotation between first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200, thereby the position of effectual fixed human finger, make the finger structure realize the force feedback effect to human finger, improve human-computer interaction's experience.
Further, the connecting surface of the second brake disc 210 and the first brake disc 325 may also be provided with rubber or other devices for increasing the friction coefficient, so that the second brake disc 210 and the first brake disc 325 are flexibly connected through rubber, and the friction force between the second finger joint 200 and the first finger joint 100 is improved. Meanwhile, since the first brake disc 325 and the movable plate 321 are relatively fixed and do not move relatively, the connection mode of the first brake disc 325 and the movable plate 321 can be an interference connection or other detachable connection structure.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the first knuckle 100 is provided with the first and second limiting plates 120 and 130, and the second knuckle 200 is provided with the third and fourth limiting plates 220 and 230.
For example, as shown in fig. 1, the connection rod 310 is connected with the first and second stopper plates 120 and 130, respectively, such that the connection rod 310 is fixed between the first and second stopper plates 120 and 130. The third limiting plate 220 is rotatably connected with the first limiting plate 120 through the connecting rod 310, the fourth limiting plate 230 is rotatably connected with the first limiting plate 120 through the connecting rod 310, namely, the first limiting plate 120 and the third limiting plate 220 are attached, the second limiting plate 130 and the fourth limiting plate 230 are attached, the stability of the relative position between the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200 is improved, and the first knuckle 100 and the second knuckle 200 are prevented from colliding with each other to cause damage to components. Further, the mode that second brake disc 210 and third limiting plate 220 are connected can set up to interference fit connection or other removable connection structure for carry out stable fixed connection between second brake disc 210 and the third limiting plate 220.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the driving assembly 400 includes: a motor 410, a transmission unit 420, a lead screw 430, and a sliding block 440 for driving the movable unit 320 to move on the connecting rod 310.
For example, as shown in fig. 5, the transmission unit 420 is respectively connected to the motor 410 and the lead screw 430, such that the motor 410 can drive the transmission unit 420 to rotate, and the transmission unit 420 can drive the lead screw 430 to rotate.
The screw 430 is the most commonly used transmission element in tool machines and precision machines, and has the main function of converting rotational motion into linear motion or converting torque into axial repeated acting force, and has the characteristics of high precision, reversibility and high efficiency. The lead screw 430 is threadedly coupled to the slide block 440 such that rotation of the lead screw 430 drives the slide block 440 to move linearly on the lead screw 430. The sliding block 440 is connected to the movable unit 320, so that the sliding block 440 drives the movable unit 320 to slide linearly on the connecting rod 310, and further drives the movable unit 320 to be connected to the second finger knuckle 200, thereby fixing the position between the first finger knuckle 100 and the second finger knuckle 200, and implementing the force feedback function. The motor 410 is connected to the second knuckle 200 such that the motor 410 is fixed to the second knuckle 200, thereby improving the efficiency of driving the movable unit 320 to slide.
Further, the transmission unit 420 may be configured to: a transmission rod 421, a first gear 422, and a second gear 423; so that the transmission rod 421 is respectively connected with the motor 410 and the first gear 422, the first gear 422 is engaged with the second gear 423, and the second gear 423 is connected with the lead screw 430. The operation of the motor can drive the rotation of the transmission rod 421, the first gear 422 and the second gear 423, and further drive the rotation of the lead screw 430.
Specifically, the structure of the sliding block 440 may be composed of a nut, a steel ball, a pre-pressing piece, an inverter, and a dust-proof device; when the slide block 440 is coupled with the lead screw 430, the combination structure thereof is consistent with the principle and function of a ball screw. The ball screw is an ideal product for converting rotary motion into linear motion or converting linear motion into rotary motion.
Further, a reduction box can be connected to the motor 410, so as to effectively control the speed of the motor 410. Further, the fixing blocks may be respectively connected to the lead screw 430 and the second knuckle 200 by providing the fixing blocks to fix a position where the lead screw 430 rotates, so that the rotation of the lead screw 430 is more stable.
A finger structured glove according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: the finger mechanism 1000, the hand back mechanism 2000 and a plurality of fixing mechanisms for connecting with fingers; the finger mechanism 1000 includes any of the finger structures described above.
For example, as shown in fig. 6, the back-of-hand mechanism 2000 is connected to the finger mechanisms 1000, and the number of the finger mechanisms 1000 is set to five, so that the connected shape matches the shape of the human hand, thereby improving the accuracy of force feedback.
