Tactile sensors have received increasing research interest owing to the broad applications in areas of health monitoring, artificial intelligence, robotics, and prosthetics. The ability to understand and perceive touch and heat is of importance because it helps people to recognize objects, prevent injury, and provide heat information from grasped objects. However, bimodal tactile sensors often suffer from signal interference and complicated fabrication process. Numerous efforts have been undertaken to develop highly independent sensors based on different transduction principles as well as the device integration techniques. Here, strategies for improvement of main performance parameters such as sensitivity, sensing range, hysteresis, response/recovery time, and stability are discussed. A comprehensive overview of important progress in pressure and temperature tactile sensors in recent years is summarized. According to sensor units and transduction principles, temperature and pressure tactile sensors are categorized into two types: dual-parameter sensors and integrated bimodal sensors. Integration of tactile sensors from the viewpoint of power supply, wireless communication, and signal process circuit is given. Finally, challenges and outlook are provided and presented for pressure and temperature tactile sensors.
Double bag packaging line which is widely used in packing line is a packing type. There are traditional double bag packaging line and automatic packaging line. Among them, the automated packaging line processes include: On the bag, filling, bayonet, seaming, transporting, stacking and other processes. However, bayonet is an essential process in packaging line. The design of automatic buckle machine plays a key role in reducing labor intensity, improving production efficiency of filling line and ensuring product quality. This paper conducts a discussion and analysis in depth on automatic bayonet machine design.
A theoretical study has been made on the cam-clamping device. In this article, we consider specifically the calculations of cam geometry, calculations of clamping force and clamping torque, conditions for self-locking, and conditions for contact strength. Machine fixtures are essential in the process of mechanical manufacturing. There are many different types of fixtures, such as manual jig, pneumatic clamps, hydraulic fixtures, electric fixtures, etc. There are also many ways of clamping, such as incline clamp, screw clamp, eccentric circle clamp, hinge clamp [1], among which the eccentric circle clamp finds wide applications, especially in fast-clamping devices. Although the circular eccentric fixture possesses the advantages of simple structure, convenient manufacturing, and low cost, it suffers the drawbacks of small clamping force, short clamping-surface travel distance, and unreliable self-locking mechanism. The cam-clamping device discussesed in this article involves replaceing the eccentric circle with a cam, as shown in Fig. 1. The cam profile curve can be designed according to any requirements. The advantages of this replacement are obvious, in addition to preserving the advantages of the circular eccentric fixture, the cam-clamping can be designed according to the actual needs of clamping paths and selection of the appropriate cam profile to improve the self-locking.
According to the needs of the scheme design of on the modular vertical lathe, the requirements of the customers and the tasks of the design are analyzed. The selection of the main technical parameters in the primary scheme design on the vertical lathe is specified. Take the main transmission system as an example; the process of the general design scheme is described.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
