The flexible material generally has low elastic modulus, good stretchability and good conformal capability, the 3D printing technology realizes the forming flexibility, and the defects of long processing period and complex process of the traditional manufacturing method can be overcome when the flexible material is applied to the manufacturing process of the flexible sensor.
With the development of various technologies, people put higher demands on sensors, and sensors with special structures capable of adapting to various complex occasions are urgently needed.
The piezoelectric sensor is a sensor based on a piezoelectric effect, charges are generated on the surface of a piezoelectric material after the piezoelectric material is stressed, and pressure signals are converted into electric signals to be output, so that the pressure is well measured. The flexible piezoelectric sensor solves the problems of poor tensile strength, brittle materials, poor flexibility and the like of the conventional sensor device in work, the appearance of the flexible piezoelectric sensor can be changed along with the work requirement, and the flexible piezoelectric sensor has flexible characteristics while ensuring the sensitive piezoelectric characteristics. In the 'flexible piezoelectric sensor' of patent application No. 201810920836, the flexible piezoelectric sensor is composed of a piezoelectric device and a flexible material. The flexible material is deformed under the action of an external force and transmits a pressure signal to the piezoelectric device, so that the piezoelectric device can indirectly measure the external force. However, the above patents also have certain disadvantages: the piezoelectric device indirectly measures the external force in a mode of being covered by the flexible material, and the elastic action of the flexible material can increase the measurement error of the piezoelectric device on the real pressure to a certain extent; the number, the positions and the placing modes of the piezoelectric devices determine the sensitivity of different pressure measurement positions, the requirement of accurate detection of pressure at all the positions cannot be met, and the application range is limited; the flexible piezoelectric sensor has long manufacturing period, and the manufacturing process is greatly influenced by environmental factors; the piezoelectric performance and the energy acquisition condition of the flexible piezoelectric sensor are not analyzed. In summary, the invention provides a novel 3D printed flexible self-powered piezoelectric sensor device in order to solve the problems of the existing piezoelectric sensor, further improve the fit requirements of the shape, sensitivity and rigidity of the device, improve the manufacturing method of the flexible piezoelectric sensor, and achieve accurate measurement and energy acquisition of pressure at each position.
Traditional flexible strain sensor response time is longer, and resistance strain sensor sensitivity is low, and the existence of the poor scheduling problem of piezoceramics sensor flexibility, along with the continuous development of 3D print sensor technique and flexible material, flexible 3D prints flexible sensor device and gradually becomes the research hotspot. The flexible strain sensor with the ultra-fast response and the preparation method thereof which are disclosed in the application number 201811050618 are provided with a flexible strain gauge capable of realizing the ultra-fast response. The response time of the flexible strain sensor can reach 50-500 mus. However, the patent still has some disadvantages: for example, the preparation of the preparation material is complicated, the manufacturing period of the sensor is long, the manufacturing of the sensor with a complicated structure is difficult, the measurement on a specific structure needs to be carefully designed, and the like. In order to solve the problems of the traditional flexible strain sensing and further improve the traditional flexible sensor on the basis of ensuring the sensitivity and the response frequency, the invention provides a flexible 3D printing sensor device for high-frequency strain measurement.
