Characterization of Constrained Aged Niti Strips for Using In Artificial Muscle Actuators (Technical Note)
Marvelous bending/straightening effects of two-way shape memory alloy (TWSMA) help their employment in design and manufacturing of new medical appliances. Constrained ageing with bending load scheme can induce two-way shape memory effect (TWSME). Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis, electrical resistivity measurement (ERM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) are employed to dete...
متن کاملPredictive Functional Control with Disturbance Observer for Tendon-Driven Balloon Actuator
In recent years, Japanese society has been aging, engendering a labor shortage of young workers. Robots are therefore expected to perform tasks such as rehabilitation, nursing elderly people, and day-to-day work support for elderly people. The pneumatic balloon actuator is a rubber artificial muscle developed for use in a robot hand in such environments. This actuator has a long stroke and a hi...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Robot Arm System Using High-damping Pneumatic Artificial Rubber Muscle
Introduction Pneumatic artificial rubber muscle (PARM) is a pneumatically driven actuator that provides mechanical effects similar in principle to those of muscle contraction. PARM is a novel actuator that has a high weight-power ratio and maximum contraction over the nominal length is 20%. As shown in Figure 1 , PARM is composed of a rubber tube impregnated with fibers. Teleoperation of pneuma...
متن کاملMathematical Model of Pneumatic Artificial Muscle Reinforced by Straight Fibers
This article describes a mathematical model of a pneumatic artificial muscle reinforced by straight fibers. The pneumatic artificial muscle is lightweight and high power. In addition, it is possible for it to emit exhaust into the atmosphere because the transmission medium of its energy is air, and it needs neither a tank nor maintenance like hydraulic equipment. In addition, safety to a person...
متن کاملDevelopment of Jump Assist System Using Pneumatic Rubber Muscle
In this paper, we develop a jump assist system that can generate instantaneous force using pneumatic artificial rubber muscles (PARMs) since such quick motion is required in the rescue activities. The device extends the knee joint using PARMs. Moreover, bi-articular mechanism between the knee and ankle joint is realized using PARMs. Assist timing with the device is detected with an acceleration...
