摘要:
A control method for a power assist device provided with an operation handle, a force sensor that detects an operation force applied to the operation handle and an orientation of the operation force, a robot arm, and an actuator. When the orientation of the operation force is detected to be within a predetermined angle range with respect to a preset advancing direction of the operation handle, the actuator is controlled so as to move the operation handle along the advancing direction by employing only a component of the operation force along the advancing direction; and when the orientation of the operation force is detected to be outside the predetermined angle range, the actuator is controlled to move the operation handle by the operation force applied to the operation handle and the orientation of the operation force.

A power assist device includes: holder holding a workpiece; a pair of wires each having one end connected to the holder to suspend the holder; a pair of wind-up wheels winding up respective other ends of the wires; a pair of motors rotationally driving the respective wind-up wheels; a pair of rotation detectors detecting rotation information of the respective motors; a pair of torque detectors detecting drive torque in the respective motors; and controller controlling drive of the motors. The controller calculates operating force to the workpiece based on the rotation information detected by the rotation detectors and the drive torque of the motors detected by the torque detectors, and controls the motors to assist the operating force that is calculated, to move up and down the holder.

Disclosed is a surface structure of an article (1) including multiple protrusions (3) on the surface. A height H of the protrusions (3) is equal to or larger than 5 μm, and equal to or smaller than 32 μm, as well as at least one of a distance P between each two neighboring protrusions (3) and a distance W between each neighboring two of recesses (5) formed between the protrusions (3) is larger than the height H of the protrusions (3).

In the surface structure of an article 7 according to the present invention, a plurality of convex portions 11 are so disposed on a surface 9 as to have intervals relative to each other and a plurality of fine convex portions 21 having a diameter d and a height h smaller than those of the concave portion 11 are formed on the surface of at least the edge portion 15 of the concave portion 11. By this, when a hand touches the surface 9 of the article 7, the proper number of convex portions 21 abut on a linear object 25 constituting a fingerprint 23 of a hand's finger, to thereby allow the human being to obtain a delicate-and-soft touch feeling.

It is possible to provide a power assist device which can maintain a stable contact state without causing an oscillation phenomenon even if a robot is brought into contact with an environment. A method for controlling the power assist device is also provided. The power assist device includes: an inner force sensor which detects an operation force applied by an operator; an operation handle having the inner force sensor; a robot arm which supports the operation handle; an actuator which drives the robot arm; the actuator and a control device which measure or estimate a force applied when the robot arm is brought into contact with an environment; and the actuator and the control device which detect or estimate a motion speed of the operation handle. The control device acquires a corrected external force according to the operation force detected by the inner force sensor and an external force detected by the actuator and the control device as external force derivation means and controls the actuator so that the corrected external force acts on the operation handle.

A convexo concave amplifying device for exhibiting a convexo concave by amplifying a sense of a convexo concave of an object, comprising a sensing member and an exhibiting member. The sensing member 101 comprises a flexible sheet able to contact with the surface of the object O and to deform along the surface of the object. The exhibiting member 120 that is formed on a surface of the flexible sheet and has a deformation resistance smaller than that of the flexible sheet in at least one of directions orthogonal to a direction of thickness of the flexible sheet. With such construction, the object convexo concave can be amplified and exhibited.A deformation sensing device for sensing a deformation thereof comprising a capsule deformable by stress, a viscous fluid F contained in the capsule, and a relative movement sensing member that is disposed inside of the capsule and senses a relative movement against the viscous fluid. With such construction, property of the object such as the convexo concave or the stress can be detected.
