Description

Method for testing friction characteristics of fingers on deterministic texture surface
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of finger friction tests, in particular to a test method of friction characteristics of fingers on deterministic texture surfaces.
Background
The human fingertip consists of nails, dermis, subcutaneous tissue, phalanges and epidermis, and has mechanoreceptors with different functions and structures and a large amount of nerve tissues, the physiological structure is complex and changeable, and the touch perception effect of the human fingertip is closely related to the age, sex, occupation and the like of a subject. From the biomechanical aspect, when a finger contacts an external object and generates relative motion, the skin of the finger generates mechanical deformation such as compression, stretching and the like, and mechanoreceptors positioned in the deep layer of the skin are induced to generate corresponding action potentials, and the pulse signals containing the physical characteristics of the surface of the object are transmitted to the cerebral cortex of the brain through a nervous system, so that feel is generated to sense the physical geometrical characteristics such as hardness, geometric shape, surface texture and the like of the external world. The research of the finger friction touch sense perception mechanism can provide data support and theoretical basis for the design and preparation of bionic skin, bionic finger and disabled artificial limbs.
In fact, human touch is not a simple process of converting physical characteristics into electrical signals through skin, and due to the complex physiological structure of fingers, mechanical deformation such as inlaying, shearing, squeezing and collision is complex in the finger contact process, and in addition, the external environment and the change of physical parameters in the contact process lead to the characteristics of complexity, interdigitability and randomness in finger contact, and the finger friction sensing process is complicated and difficult to imitate.
Numerous researchers at home and abroad conduct comprehensive researches on finger contact, the researches try to clarify finger contact characteristics from the aspects of experiments and theories, but because of the random texture surfaces adopted by the current touch objects, the influence of the sizes of textures on the finger friction characteristics is difficult to quantitatively discuss, and the actions of exploring the textures of the finger movements are easy to be interfered by human factors because of the fact that the samples are usually not moved, so that the reliability and the repeatability of the experiments are low. In order to overcome the interference of human factors, some researches adopt simulated fingers to replace human fingers, so that the persuasion of data is weaker, and in addition, the accidental data cannot be avoided by a test result processing method. Therefore, the current experimental study still cannot well reveal the finger friction touch sensing mechanism, so that the humanoid robot has skin to obtain touch feeling, which is always a great challenge for the robot research and development work, particularly the research on friction characteristics, and has a plurality of barriers.

It will be apparent that the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments, which are obtained by a person skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of the invention, fall within the scope of protection of the invention.
In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the directions or positional relationships indicated by the terms "upper", "lower", "inner", "outer", etc. are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, are merely for convenience of description and simplification of the description, and do not indicate or imply that the apparatus or element in question must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and thus should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1, the present invention provides a method for testing the friction characteristics of a finger on a deterministic texture surface, in which the adhesion friction is the main friction mechanism of the finger contacting the deterministic texture surface, where the deterministic texture surface refers to a surface textured by ridges with rectangular cross sections, and the adhesion friction is positively correlated with the real contact area, and the contact state determines the solving formula of the real contact area of the finger and the sample surface, so that the contact state is determined first. The test method of the invention comprises the following steps:
1) Obtaining a value range of the radius of the index finger of the subject according to a pre-determined normal load value and the set distance and height of the sample ridges, and screening the subject meeting the requirements according to the value range, wherein the finger of the subject is in partial contact with the deterministic texture surface;
the method comprises the following steps: in order to simplify the problem, only the friction characteristics of the finger tip skin in a partial contact state with the deterministic texture surface are researched, normal load values applied to the finger are required to be determined to be 0.5N, 1.0N, 1.5N and 2.0N according to empirical values, the distances between ridges on the sample surface are respectively 4.8mm, 5.8mm, 6.8mm, 7.8mm and the heights of the ridges are respectively 0.8mm, the three terms are substituted into a contact state judgment formula, the value range of the radius of the index finger of a subject can be finally determined, six healthy people with ages of 24-26 years old are selected as the subject according to the range, and the radius of the index finger of the person is used for realizing the partial contact between the finger and the sample surface.
Wherein, the contact state judging formula is:
Figure GDA0002929322770000051
wherein D is the height of the ridge, E * Is an effective Young's modulus, a known amount; f (F) N For normal load values, R is the subject finger radius and λ is the sample ridge spacing.
When x is<1, the fingertip skin is in partial contact with the sample. From the above formula, x and normal load value F N The distance lambda between the ridges is positively correlated with the radius R of the finger of the subject, and the value of the distance lambda between the ridges and the radius R is negatively correlated with the radius R of the finger of the subject, and the value range of the distance lambda between the ridges and the radius R of the finger of the subject is substituted into the value of the distance lambda between the ridges and the radius R of the finger of the subject. For example: when the normal load is F N When the contact state is in a critical state, namely x=1, when the distance between the ridges is=0.5N and λ=4.8, the minimum index finger radius meeting the partial contact is 4.9564mm, at the moment, the index finger radius of a subject requiring to participate in the test is larger than 4.9564mm, when the normal load value or the sample changes, the value range of the index finger radius is also determined according to the method, and finally the intersection of the ranges is obtained, so that the value range of the index finger radius of the subject can be finally determined.
2) According to the influence factors of the adhesive friction force in the partial contact state, calculating the real contact area of the fingertip skin and the deterministic texture surface, and analyzing the change rule of the adhesive friction force along with the normal load value, the ridge spacing, the ridge width and the index finger radius of a subject according to the obtained real contact area result, so as to prepare for the change rule of the friction force obtained by an analysis test;
the calculation formula of the real contact area S is:
Figure GDA0002929322770000061
where ω is the width of the sample ridge; normal load value F during contact of finger with sample N The distance lambda and width omega of the sample ridges, and the radius R of the subject's finger are substituted into the formula, different contact parameters (F N λ, ω, R) sets the true contact area of the fingertip skin with the sample.
The change rule of the adhesive friction force is as follows: increasing the normal load increases the adhesion friction; the larger the width of the ridge, the greater the adhesion force; adding lubricating oil medium reduces the adhesive friction; increasing the ridge spacing reduces the adhesive friction;
wherein, the influencing factors of the adhesive friction force comprise a normal load value, the interval between ridges, the radius of an index finger of a subject and the width of the ridges; wherein the normal load value, the pitch of the ridges, and the radius of the index finger of the subject are determined, and the width of the ridges is determined to be 0.8mm and 1.6mm by empirical values, respectively.
3) According to the influence factors of the adhesive friction force, determining that the test variable is a normal load value, the width and the height of the ridge, and the radius of the index finger of the subject is not the test variable; since the addition of the lubricating oil medium directly affects the actual contact area, whether the lubricating oil medium is added or not is to be determined as a test variable.
4) According to the distance, the height and the width of the sample ridges, two groups of samples of W groups and N groups are processed by adopting 3D printing;
in this embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, the overall thickness h of the sample is 2mm, the overall length l of the sample is 100mm, and the overall width w of the sample is 35mm. In addition, the width omega of the sample ridges of the W group is 0.8mm, the width omega of the sample ridges of the N group is 1.6mm, each group of samples has 4, the spacing lambda is 4.8mm, 5.8mm, 6.8mm and 7.8mm respectively, the heights D of the two groups of sample ridges are 0.8mm, and the material is photosensitive resin.
5) According to the radius of the index finger of the subject and the contact angle of the set fingertip and the sample surface of 30 degrees, an aluminum finger clamp is arranged according to the structural characteristics of an adapter of the UMT Tribolab testing machine as shown in figure 4; building a test system according to the aluminum finger clamp, the sample ridge size and the test variable;
in this example, subjects were selected with index finger radii of 5.1579mm, 6.3667mm, 6.5867mm, 6.9576mm, 7.5374mm, and 7.9618mm.
6) Loading the fingertip of the subject, controlling the movement of the sample, enabling the fingertip skin to interact with the surface of the sample, and acquiring the friction force and the contact force of the contact section and the position information of the sample;
when researching the influence of normal load on friction perception of a subject, selecting a W group of samples as a touch object, and sequentially setting the normal load to be 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2N to simulate the touch force of a finger contacting an object;
when researching the influence of lubricating oil medium on the friction perception of a subject, selecting a W group sample as a touch object, coating lubricating oil on the surface of a finger for test, collecting the friction force result in the test process, and obtaining various contact parameters (F N And lambda, omega and R) are set to be identical, namely respectively taking data such as peak-valley value, average value, variance, standard deviation, fluctuation period and the like of a curve of the friction force changing along with time, and comparing the difference of the two groups of data, thereby analyzing the influence of lubricating oil on the friction force result.
When researching the influence of the width of the sample surface ridge on the friction perception of a subject, selecting a W group of samples and a N group of samples as touch objects, wherein the width omega of the W group of sample ridges is larger than that of the N group of samples, setting the two groups of samples on the finger without lubricating oil and other contact parameters (F N And comparing the friction results obtained when lambda and R) are the same, namely respectively taking data such as peak-valley value, average value, variance, standard deviation, fluctuation period and the like of a curve of the friction force changing along with time, and comparing the difference of the two groups of data, thereby analyzing the influence of lubricating oil on the friction result.
The finger and the sample surface generate contact force, when the numerical value reaches a preset value, the finger is stopped by the aluminum finger clamp, after the finger is kept for 15 seconds, the sample starts to move linearly at the speed of 4mm/s, the finger and the sample surface generate friction force, when the stroke of the sample reaches 60mm, the sample stops moving, the finger is moved upwards by the aluminum finger clamp, the sample returns to the original test starting position, and the test is ended. Each subject was subjected to 3 replicates under the same test conditions, each run at 15min intervals.
7) Acquiring friction force data of a contact surface in the whole contact process, wherein the friction force data changes along with time, acquiring and analyzing a basis of average fluctuation degree of friction force in the touch process according to the friction force data, and combining the basis with a change rule of adhesive friction force to obtain an analysis test result of the friction force of a finger on a deterministic texture surface;
the friction force of the fingertip skin and the curve changing with time when the fingertip is scratched through the sample in the test process have obvious periodic change rule. Due to the existence of the ridges, the fingertip skin sequentially passes through repeated cycles of bulge-recess-bulge, and the contact area of the fingertip skin and the surface of the sample and the deformation degree of the fingertip are periodically fluctuated due to the complex mechanical property of the fingertip skin.
The curve changes irregularly when the sliding starts, because the speed suddenly changes from 0mm/s to 4mm/s when the sample starts to slide, a certain impact is caused on the skin of the fingertip, and the difference value of a single period is larger than that of other periods in the sliding process, which is caused by the fact that the protrusions caused by the cooling ridges are removed, and the surface of the sample has irregular fine textures caused by the manufacturing process.
As shown in fig. 6, which is a typical curve of friction force of fingertip skin and time variation when the fingertip is drawn through the sample, the average fluctuation degree of friction force is obtained based on the test result, and the obtaining method specifically comprises: the peak value and the trough value of the curve change period caused by the ridges of the samples in the curve obtained by each test are subjected to difference value, the difference values are ordered according to the size, the change period of the curve corresponding to the 5 difference values (the number of the ridges of all the samples is odd and is more than 5) in the middle is taken, the corresponding curve change period is 5 more uniform periods, and the friction force wave peak value corresponding to the period is F X1 ,F X2 ,F X3 ,F X4 ,F X5 And a friction trough value of F X1 ’,F X2 ’,F X3 ’,F X4 ’,F X5 ' average value F of the difference between the peak value and the trough value XM1
Figure GDA0002929322770000081
Since the same test was repeated three times, the average values obtained in the other two times were F XM1 ' and F XM1 ", the average value is taken again according to the times of the test to obtain the total average value F XM2
Figure GDA0002929322770000082
Will F XM2 As a basis for analyzing the average fluctuation degree of the friction force in the touch process, the test result of the friction force is analyzed by combining the change rule of the adhesive friction component: in the process of contact between fingertip skin and deterministic texture surface, friction force is basically periodically fluctuated along with time, and the change of average fluctuation degree is consistent with the change rule of adhesive friction component, and at the moment, the adhesive friction component takes the dominant role; the average degree of fluctuation of the friction force does not consistently increase with increasing pitch because increasing the pitch of the ridges results in a decrease in the sticking friction component and an increase in the plow friction component, where the plow friction component dominates and the degree of fluctuation of the total friction force increases. When the finger skin slides over the rectangular ridge, friction force F is generated f Mainly by the adhesive friction component F a Plow friction component F p And the friction force reduction amount DeltaF generated by elastic energy recovery deformation: f (F) f =F a +F p ΔF, adhesive friction component F a The main friction mechanism cannot be detected through experiments, while the total friction force in the process of touching the deterministic texture by a finger can be detected through experiments, but the friction mechanism is unknown, so the change of the adhesion friction component is deduced through theory, and the plow friction component F is further deduced p And the change rule of the friction force reduction delta F corresponding to the friction force reduction delta F is adopted, and finally the friction mechanism of the finger and the deterministic texture surface is obtained.
In the embodiment, the finger clamp made of aluminum ensures that the finger tip part of the index finger of the right hand of each subject is fixed at an angle of 30 degrees with the surface of the sample in the experimental process, and the finger is fixed.
