摘要:
It is disclosed a composite yarn structure (10) comprising: - a first element (15) comprising a coaxial flexible bi-component monofilament including a conductive component (20) and a thermoplastic component (30) exhibiting piezoelectric properties, - at least a second element (40) twisted around the first element (15), wherein the second element (40) has a lower elasticity with respect to the elasticity of the first element (15) such that, upon elongation of the yarn structure (10) in a first direction, the yarn structure (10) expands in a second direction, whereby the dimensions of the yarn are increased both in first and second directions to generate an additional force on said piezoelectric component of the first element.

摘要:
A PZT fiber is formed by using a titanium wire or a heat-resistant metal wire made of platinum or the like, as a core wire, and overlaying PZT crystals on a surface of the wire. A smart board utilizing the PZT fiber is formed by embedding the PZT fiber into a conductive composite material layer made of carbon fiber reinforced plastic or the like. An'actuator utilizing the smart board is constituted by applying a voltage between the PZT fiber and the conductive composite layer of the smart board.
摘要:
A process for preparing a slender or thin ceramic green body, which comprises discharging a raw material slurry comprising a ceramic powder raw material, a binder and a solvent from a discharge outlet in a slender orthin shape, and then contacting it with a solidifying liquid composed of a liquid in which the solvent is soluble and the ceramic powder raw material and the binder are insoluble or hardly soluble so that the solvent in the slurry is dissolved and removed to form the green body.
摘要:
This disclosure relates to fiber actuators for providing haptic feedback, and haptic actuation resulting from mechanical and/or electrostatic (non-mechanical) interactions with the fiber actuators. Such fiber actuators are useful in structural materials, including as elements of wearables or accessories.
