Structural design and performance analysis of elastomer for robot wrist force sensor

The robot wrist force sensor is a force sensor installed in the junction of robot hand and arm,is one of the important sensor in intelligent robot system. As a carrier of strain type elastic paste wrist force sensor of strain gauge,its importance is self-evident. For an industry to design a flexible cantilever beam wrist force sensor body structure series robot,the selection of materials are described,has carried on the modeling,set constraints and load using finite element analysis software ANSYS,finally inspected the strain diagram of the elastomer and has carried an the strength and rigidity check. The analysis results show that the elastic structure has good mechanical properties,and the strain gauge is large,which is in line with with the requirements of the robot. (paper)
