Description

Skin detection operation robot system with external pressure detection function

Technical Field

The utility model relates to the field of skin detection, in particular to a skin detection operation robot system with an external pressure detection function.

Background

Skin detection is of great significance in the fields of cosmetology, dermatological medicine and the like, and various skin detection probes are developed along with the development of technology, wherein the purposes of each probe are different, and the probes are used for detecting the content of skin components (moisture/grease), the elasticity of the skin and the glossiness of the skin.

The common problem of various skin detection probes at present is that the force, the position and the angle of each measurement are not uniform. For example, EP88108905a discloses a non-invasive acoustic test probe for skin elasticity, which is tested by an operator by pressing the front face of the outer wall of the probe against the skin and pushing the inner probes 4, 5, 6 into contact with the skin each time the test is performed, the piezoelectric transducers 1, 2, 3 transmit sound pulses to the probes, and the skin elasticity is tested according to the time span of sound transmission between the probes. In some practical scenarios where continuous tracking of skin parameters is required, because the contact of the probe with the skin is manually controlled by the operator, it cannot be ensured that the same position/angle/force is applied to the skin every time a test is performed, and the difference in measured data cannot be distinguished whether it is due to a skin change or an effect due to a change in position/angle/force.

The measuring device proposed in US20020029924A1 for measuring the elastic properties of a surface structure, it is noted that it is crucial for the values of the measurement results to be compared that the measurement results are taken from the same position/angle of the surface structure (skin), and that further in the form of marks, two holes 40 on the circumference are provided in the annular flange 35 of the outer wall for applying color marks on the surface structure, for example with a pen, in order to be able to perform measurements at the same position and in the same probe orientation at greater time intervals, and that furthermore marks 36 are provided in the annular flange with predetermined angular distances from each other, corresponding to the marks 38 on the outer side of the housing of the probe 2, so that the measuring device is reproducibly positioned in the same measuring position and in the same angular position on the surface structure. US20020029924A1 is able to address the same position/angle but cannot address the same pressure problem, while ensuring the same reality of pressure is particularly important for skin measurements. The reason is that the skin itself has a certain elastic modulus, in the study of Stiffness and Elasticity of the Masticatory and FacialExpression Muscles in Patients with the Masticatory MusclePain, korean J Oral Med, vol.34, no.3,2009, the elasticity of human skin is about 0.70±0.46N, but the probe for measuring the elasticity of the skin or the probe for other measuring purposes is not limited to the probe, and the sensor (such as the probe) in the probe needs to protrude out of the hole of the front end face and press against the skin during detection, and the front end face of the probe housing (such as the front end face of the protective shell 12 of EP88108905a and the front end face of the annular flange 35 of US20020029924 A1) also presses against the human skin during detection, and the skin has an elastic modulus and is related to the skin everywhere, and the extrusion of the front end against the skin covered by the skin causes the elasticity/water content/oil content of the skin in the hole of the front end face to change, the change degree is related to the extrusion degree, and further causes errors and direct interference to the detection of the sensor. In practical tests we have found that in a long time before and after measurement of the skin of the human body at the same position at the same angle, the measured data when the front face does not contact the skin/just contacts, and the measured data when the front face presses against the skin are different.

It is therefore important in skin detection to ensure that each detection has the same external pressure (pressure between the front face and the skin) to maintain the sensor in the inner ring with a stable measuring environment (uniform environmental standard) in each measurement. Meanwhile, the control of the internal pressure (the pressure between the sensor and the skin) is also of great importance to the safety of the human body, for example, the puncture injury of the sensor to the skin of the human body under the overlarge pressure is avoided, and the measurement safety is ensured.

On the other hand, the purchasing objects of the skin detection device are basically classified into two types of detection mechanisms and users, which have differences in the emphasis of the product and the purchasing power. On the premise of ensuring measurement accuracy, the user side focuses on the aspects of price, household use, carrying and the like, the detection mechanism is biased to be fully automatic, convenient and stable to detect, and the difference reacts to the manufacturing of enterprises to directly influence the design requirement and the manufacturing cost of products.

As an improvement scheme, the probe is provided with an internal pressure detection device of the coupling processing module, and the internal pressure detection device is used for detecting the second contact pressure (internal pressure) between the sensor and the skin, so that the purpose of internal and external double detection is achieved. Further, the internal pressure control device is configured as an internal actuator coupled with the processor, the internal actuator is arranged in the probe and can be a component such as a motor or a miniature motion device and the like, and is used for driving the sensor on the probe to move precisely so as to adjust the second contact pressure between the sensor and the skin. In the utility model, the internal pressure control device can be used together with a prompting device, for example, when the internal pressure is detected to be consistent with the previous time, an operator is indicated to stop adjusting the position of the sensor. In another embodiment, the internal pressure control device may also be configured as an elastomer, such as a spring, through which the sensor is fixed to the probe to elastically control the second contact pressure within a set interval, which achieves a broad control of the internal pressure (elastic control within a certain range) and brings structural and cost advantages over the above-described solution that enables precise control.

As another improvement, the auxiliary positioning device is configured as a fixing bracket for assisting in fixing a specific part of a human body, such as a bracket for supporting a chin on an eye vision detecting instrument, the position of the human body is confirmed by the bracket in the detection process, and the probe is accurately moved to the detection position by an external actuator for measurement. More preferably, the fixed support is further configured as a movable folding chair, the movable folding chair moves along the track, bipolar limit is set, different modes of sitting and lying can be detected, and meanwhile, a neck fixing device is additionally arranged at the position, corresponding to the human body erection, of the movable folding chair to realize positioning. And/or the auxiliary positioning device is configured to be coupled with a visual scanning imaging system of the processing module, the visual scanning imaging system scans a specific part of a human body through a 3D scanning imaging technology to confirm a target detection position, and the processing module controls the mechanical arm to move according to the target detection position so as to accurately move the probe to the detection position for measurement. Further, the vision scanning imaging system is formed by constructing three groups of scanning cameras together, so that the omnibearing detection of three sides of a human body is realized, the accurate construction of a human body model is realized, the three groups of scanning cameras are arranged on the configured main body support, the height of the main body support is adjustable, and the three groups of scanning cameras can be matched with the accurate scanning positioning of different body types of people.

In the utility model, the number of the external pressure detection devices is at least two, and the external pressure detection devices are arranged around the probe so as to ensure detection uniformity at all positions in the circumferential direction.

Further, in order to avoid the measurement error of the sensor caused by adding an object between the sensor and the skin, the internal pressure detection device is a capacitive pressure sensing component for indirectly measuring the contact pressure (a resistive type is not suitable to avoid the need of being padded between the electrode and the skin). Wherein the capacitive pressure sensing assembly may indirectly reflect pressure through area and/or distance, such as:

the scheme for reflecting the pressure by using the distance can be realized by the following form: the pressure sensing component is configured to at least comprise a first distance detection electrode and a second distance detection electrode, one side of the first substrate is used for accommodating the sensor, the first distance detection electrode is fixed on one side of the first substrate far away from the sensor, and the second distance detection electrode is configured to be arranged along the moving direction of the first substrate and at least partially or completely aligned with the first distance detection electrode; a capacitance-to-digital conversion circuit (CDC) coupled to the first distance detection electrode and the second distance detection electrode to obtain a mutual capacitance therebetween; and the processing module is used for outputting the moving distance information of the first substrate according to the mutual capacitance between the first distance detection electrode and the second distance detection electrode. Because the sensor is clung to the skin, the movement of the first matrix and the second contact pressure form a proportional relation, and by utilizing the characteristic, in the working process, the movement of the first matrix changes the distance between the first distance detection electrode and the second distance detection electrode, so that mutual capacitance change of the first distance detection electrode and the second distance detection electrode is caused, pressure data can be converted after the mutual capacitance change of the processing module calculates the movement distance of the first matrix, the purpose of indirect measurement is achieved, at the moment, the distance detection electrode for measuring the pressure is positioned on one side of the first matrix, the sensor is positioned on the other side, and the two electrodes are not interfered with each other. More preferably, in order to avoid the first distance detecting electrode from being staggered or inclined relative to the second distance detecting electrode, the pressure sensing assembly is provided with a guide post, the first substrate guides the moving direction by means of the guide post, and the implementation manner of the specific structure can be configured that the first substrate is sleeved on the guide post.

For the scheme that the area and even the area and the distance are adopted to reflect the pressure together, a two-dimensional force structure as shown in patent CN202223551426.5 can be adopted, a cylindrical or semi-cylindrical curved surface elastic upper electrode in the strip-shaped flexible multifunctional layer is fixed on one side of the first substrate away from the sensor (the cylindrical or semi-cylindrical curved surface is away from the sensor), at least two lower electrodes distributed on two sides of the strip are arranged below the upper electrode, different capacitances are formed between the upper electrode and the lower electrode to reflect the components of the force in different directions, an insulating layer is arranged between the upper electrode and the lower electrode, and the downward projection of the upper electrode at least covers part of the area of each lower electrode. When the first substrate moves, the upper electrode is stressed and deformed in the radial direction of the strip shape to drive the upper electrode to change the contact area with the insulating layer, so that the change information of pressure is reflected. Alternatively, a higher resolution measurement is achieved using the three-dimensional force structure shown in patent CN 201910370967.1. In this solution, indirect measurement is also achieved and the pressure detection and the skin detection of the sensor do not interfere with each other.

Another problem that skin detection probes exist is that the variety of probes is various, the interface of each probe is not unified to bring the problem that the back end butt joint equipment is not universal, and in this regard, as another improvement scheme, the detection end is provided with standard joint for the butt joint of different detection human skin's probes is realized to the correspondence detection function of probe, solves the unified problem of interface.

More specifically, to a probe for detecting skin components (moisture/grease) in a skin detection probe, wherein the moisture content in skin can form moisture and moisten on the surface of the skin, and the grease helps the skin to achieve the purposes of water locking and bacteriostasis, etc., while the traditional mode of detecting the moisture or the grease in the skin adopts a film measurement method, and standard comparison is carried out by an optical mode after the moisture or the grease is absorbed by a film, and a microporous film as disclosed in U.S. patent 4,532,937 is adhered on the skin for absorbing sebum; U.S. patent 5,119,828 discloses the use of microporous hydrophobic polymer films that are opaque when the holes are filled with gaseous material and become translucent when the holes are filled with sebum, and use this property for optical measurements; or German patent DE29700324U1 discloses skin analysis evaluation by test membranes and the like. The film measurement method belongs to indirect measurement, and needs moisture or grease to be transferred to a test film for testing, and errors are easily caused by interference of various uncertain factors in the transfer process. For this reason, a direct measurement method is adopted to test skin moisture, for example, a cornea measuring instrument of CK, and the principle is that a capacitive measurement mode is adopted, a mutual capacitance electric field formed by two measuring electrodes penetrates through human skin, and the addition of water causes a change of dielectric constant in a sensing area so as to reflect the moisture content in the skin through the tested mutual capacitance value. In this way, the main problem is that we wish to test the series capacitance C between the measurement electrode and the skin _a The skin belongs to the outer layer tissue of the human body, various conductive substances such as blood exist below the skin, and all the substances together form a distributed capacitance (self capacitance) C formed by the human body to the ground _w The self-capacitance C of the human body is introduced no matter the self-capacitance or the mutual capacitance is measured _w Resulting in a series capacitance C _a Inaccuracy of measurement affects the accuracy of measurement, while isolating the body self-capacitance C by invasive means, e.g. by cutting part of the skin _w The measurement error is also caused by the problems of loss of activity of the cut skin and the like. For this purpose, the probe for detecting skin components (moisture/grease) in the skin detection probe, i.e. the skin component detection module, may be configured with its sensor to comprise at least a first measuring electrode, a second measuring electrode for contact with the skin via an insulating layer, and a series capacitance C between the first measuring electrode and the human body _a1 And a series capacitance C between the second measuring electrode and the human body _a2 The skin detection operation robot system is provided with a capacitance-to-digital conversion circuit which couples the respective measuring electrodes and acquires a first capacitance configured as a first self-capacitance measurement value acquired through the first measuring electrode, a second self-capacitance measurement value acquired through the second measuring electrode, and a second capacitance acquired through the first measuring electrode and the second measuring electrode in parallel One of the third self-capacitance measurement value and the first mutual capacitance measurement value acquired through the first measurement electrode and the second measurement electrode, wherein the second capacitance is configured as one of the other three; a processing module for constructing a human body-to-ground distributed capacitance C based on the first capacitance _w A first equation with the corresponding series capacitance as a variable, and constructing a human body-to-ground distribution C based on the second capacitance _w The corresponding second equation with the series capacitance as a variable calculates the series capacitance C by using an equation set formed by the first equation and the second equation and the proportionality coefficient k _a1 Or series capacitor C _a2 To output composition information within the skin. In an actual scene, when the skin component detection module detects, the first measuring electrode and the second measuring electrode are closely attached to the skin through the insulating layer, and the distance between the electrodes and the skin is fixed, so that the ratio of the areas of the first measuring electrode and the second measuring electrode after production and manufacture is only set, and the ratio coefficient k can be determined by using the structural setting (the serial capacitance of one is C) _a The other has a series capacitance of k×c _a ) On the basis, the self capacitance or the mutual capacitance of the electrodes is measured twice, and both the self capacitance and the mutual capacitance are C _w And C _a Composition, thus each measurement can build up a C _w And C _a Is to C by using the equation set consisting of two equations _w Eliminating primordial energy to construct C _a Monotonic function with the first capacitor and the second capacitor, and then solving C by using the first capacitor and the second capacitor obtained by two measurements _a . Due to C _w Is eliminated, thus can eliminate C _w The resulting measurement error in turn accurately measures C _a Reflecting the skin component content. In addition, the capacitance value to be measured is directly converted into a digital value by using a capacitance-digital conversion circuit (CDC), such as ADI7142 and ADI7147, and adopting a delta-sigma modulation mode to charge and discharge the capacitance to be measured for a plurality of times (see U.S. Pat. No. 5,134,401), so that the measurement sensitivity of the capacitance can be improved to 1ff level, the requirement of a measurement system on the measurement sensitivity of the capacitance can be easily met, and particularly, the design of the chips is provided with a plurality of channels, so that the circuit design is simple and convenient, and the capacitance measuring circuit hasCost and installation difficulty are effectively reduced.

As a further improvement of this improvement, the scaling factor k is configured to be equal to 1 or may not be equal to 1. The scheme that k is equal to 1 can be realized by setting that the normal projection areas of the first measuring electrode and the second measuring electrode corresponding to the human body are the same, and the distance between the first measuring electrode and the human body is the same as that between the first measuring electrode and the second measuring electrode. For the case where k is not equal to 1, this may be achieved by setting the difference in area and/or pitch, for example, setting the area of the first measurement electrode to half the area of the second measurement electrode, or setting the pitch of the first measurement electrode to the human body to 1/3 of the pitch of the second measurement electrode to the human body, or the like.

As a further improvement of the improvement, the first capacitance is configured as a first self-capacitance measurement value or a second self-capacitance measurement value, and the second capacitance is configured as a first mutual capacitance measurement value, and at this time, one of the first self-capacitance measurement value and the second self-capacitance measurement value is C _s The corresponding series capacitance is C _a The value of the series capacitance of the other is k×c _a ；C _a Is further configured to:

wherein C is _x For the first mutual capacitance measurement, k ₁ 0.1-0.9, k ₂ The error allowable value is + -5% of the measured value. In this scheme, the first capacitor is configured as a self-capacitance, the second capacitor is configured as a mutual capacitance, and a more accurate measurement result is obtained by using a self-capacitance and mutual capacitance conversion mode.

Alternatively, instead of this improvement, the first capacitance is configured as a first self-capacitance measurement value or a second self-capacitance measurement value, and the second capacitance is configured as a third self-capacitance measurement value, where one of the first self-capacitance measurement value and the second self-capacitance measurement value is C _s1 Corresponding series capacitanceIs C _a The value of the series capacitance of the other is k×c _a ，C _a Is further configured to:

Wherein C is _s2 For the third self-capacitance measurement, k ₁ 0.1-0.9, k ₂ The error allowable value is + -5% of the measured value. In this scheme, the first capacitor is configured as a self-capacitance, the second capacitor is configured as a self-capacitance after the area change (two electrodes are combined by an analog switch to be connected in parallel), and a more accurate measurement result is obtained by using the self-capacitance area change twice measurement mode.

As a further improvement of the improvement scheme, the distance between the first measuring electrode and the second measuring electrode is 0.1mm-2mm, so that the two electrodes are ensured to sense the temperature and humidity change in the same space, and the interference of large temperature and humidity difference at the two electrodes caused by too far distance is avoided.

The components can be water or grease, the characteristics that the water and the grease in the skin are at different depths (water depth, oil depth) are utilized, the water and the oil are distinguished through detection of different depths, and at the moment, the water and the self capacitance of a human body can be used as C together through the control of the penetration depth of an electric field line when the grease is detected _w Or when measuring shallow layer (such as epidermis tissue moisture), controlling penetration depth of electric field lines can use moisture in deeper layer (such as dermis tissue and/or subcutaneous tissue) and self capacitance of human body as C _w . And/or water-oil discrimination may be achieved by varying the excitation frequency (using a water-sensitive excitation frequency, an oil-sensitive excitation frequency).

Based on this, as a further improvement of the improvement, at least three measuring electrodes (including the first and second measuring electrodes) distributed at different positions may be configured, and the capacitance-to-digital conversion circuit is coupled to each measuring electrode through the analog switch array, so as to selectively combine any at least two measuring electrodes to form a pair of electrode groups for detecting mutual capacitance. On one hand, the measuring electrode consists of a plurality of groups of mutual capacitors, and the detection of components at different positions can be realized through the switching of an analog switch array, so that the average value is obtained, and the error caused by the position difference among the measuring times is reduced; on the other hand, the structure can be configured that at least two pairs of electrode groups exist through combination, wherein the depth of electric field lines of mutual capacitance formed by each pair of electrode groups is different, so that the change of the penetration depth of the electric field lines is realized. Specifically, the structure can adopt a mode of changing the area and/or the distance, namely, the area or the distance between two electrodes in each formed pair of electrode groups is different through different selections, so that the depth of electric field lines of mutual capacitance formed by each pair of electrode groups obtained by CDC is different, and further, the detection of different depths or the detection of the states of different layers of skin tissues is realized. The scheme of changing the area is that six electrodes 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, 1-4, 1-5 and 1-6 are arranged, mutual capacitance between the electrodes 1-2 and 1-3 is measured through an analog switch array by CDC, the penetration depth of electric field lines of the mutual capacitance is in a shallow layer, then the electrodes 1-1 and 1-2 are combined (connected in parallel), the mutual capacitance between the two combined electrodes is measured by combining the electrodes 1-3 and 1-4, the area of the combined electrodes is increased, the penetration depth of the electric field lines is deepened, and skin tissues with different depths at the same position can be tested; or, firstly detecting the mutual capacitance between 1-1 and 1-2, then combining 1-1 and 1-2, and combining 1-3 and 1-4 to measure the mutual capacitance after the area is changed, thereby testing skin tissues with different depths at different positions. The six electrodes can be equally spaced or non-equally spaced, for example, 1-1, 1-2 are used to test epidermis tissue, 1-1, 1-4 are used to test dermis tissue, and 1-1, 1-6 are used to test subcutaneous tissue in an equally spaced arrangement; or 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, 1-4, 1-5, 1-6, subcutaneous tissues are used in setting different pitches for simplified wiring. From the above, on the basis of configuring at least three measuring electrodes distributed at different positions, through the cooperation of the CDC and the analog switch array, various functional purposes can be achieved: (1) The error caused by the position difference among the measurement times is reduced conveniently through averaging; (2) Conveniently, the variable spacing and/or the variable area are realized through combination so as to detect different depths, including different depths at the same position and/or different depths at different positions. In the present utility model, the analog switch array can be simply and conveniently switched by freely combining with an analog signal router, and the data of the analog signal router can be referred to patent CN202110957486.8, which is not described herein. Furthermore, the analog signal router can be integrated with CDC, for example, a ruby chip of CN202110956246.6 is adopted, 24-bit high-speed CDC, the conversion time of effective resolution of 21.9 bits reaching 0.5ms and high-precision tactile signal acquisition and encoding are realized.

More preferably, the electrode set is configured to include at least two of: the first electrode group, the interval and/or area of two electrodes in the first electrode group is configured to enable the depth of electric field lines of mutual capacitance to penetrate to the epidermis tissue of the skin; a second electrode set, wherein the distance and/or area between the two electrodes in the second electrode set is configured to enable the depth of the electric field lines of the mutual capacitance to penetrate into dermal tissue of the skin; and the distance and/or the area between the two electrodes in the third electrode group are configured to enable the depth of the electric field lines of the mutual capacitance to penetrate into subcutaneous tissue of the skin. The epidermis tissue, the dermis tissue and the subcutaneous tissue form the skin together, at least two or even three of the epidermis tissue, the dermis tissue and the subcutaneous tissue are penetrated through the electric field lines, and the aim of reflecting the skin component parameters more comprehensively and closely can be achieved by matching CDC and the analog switch array for solving the average value, and the tissue states of different layers can be selectively detected. In the above-mentioned scheme for detecting different depths or detecting different layers of skin tissue by means of variable area and/or variable pitch, the precondition that the frequency of the excitation signal output to the measuring electrode by the CDC is configured to be a constant frequency is basically followed. In another scheme of changing the detection depth, the method can also be realized by configuring the frequency of the excitation signal into at least two modes, for example, between two measurement electrodes with fixed space and fixed area, for example, between a first measurement electrode and a second measurement electrode, by performing software configuration in a ruby chip, the excitation signal works at a first frequency in a time period A, works at a second frequency in a time period B, and due to different frequencies, the penetration depth of mutual capacitance electric field lines between the first measurement electrode and the second measurement electrode also changes under the action of skin effect, so that the measurement of different depths is realized. It is noted that of course, a more fine-grained depth control can be achieved with further frequency-changing means on a variable area and/or variable pitch basis. On this basis, more preferably, the frequencies selected for use may be configured to be sensitive to different components of the skin. For example, the first frequency is configured to be sensitive to water and the second frequency is configured to be sensitive to grease, thereby achieving water-oil discrimination.

As a further improvement of the improvement, the skin component detection module also comprises a standard liquid storage device; the standard liquid storage device at least comprises a sealed cavity, standard liquid which is arranged in the sealed cavity and is used for calibrating or differentially measuring components, and a liquid detection electrode which is used for detecting capacitance values of the standard liquid under different environments; the capacitance-to-digital conversion circuit is coupled with the liquid detection electrode; and the processing module is used for correcting the capacitance (self capacitance and mutual capacitance) obtained by the capacitance-digital conversion circuit according to the capacitance value of the standard liquid. Wherein, when the measured component is moisture, the standard liquid is a standard body of water; when measuring grease, the standard liquid corresponds to grease. The liquid detection electrodes are configured to comprise at least two liquid detection electrodes and are distributed on the outer wall of the sealed cavity, and capacitance values of standard liquid in the cavity are detected through mutual capacitance of the two liquid detection electrodes.

In this modification, the method for calibrating the standard liquid further includes detecting a difference between the capacitance value of the standard liquid at the current time and the capacitance value at the initial time, and correcting the capacitance obtained by the CDC using a change in the reference reflected by the difference. For example, assuming that the volume of the standard liquid is configured to correspond to the full scale, initially detecting that the capacitance value of the standard liquid is a means that the capacitance value a corresponds to the full scale, if the capacitance value of the standard liquid is detected at the present time not to be a but to be B means that the capacitance is changed due to the change in the environment (such as temperature and humidity), the difference between the capacitance values of the standard liquid of the same volume from a to B means that the reference is changed, and B corresponds to the full scale, and therefore, it is necessary to correct the capacitance obtained by the CDC corresponding to the reference change.

In the improved scheme, the method for differential measurement of the standard liquid further comprises the step of carrying out differential comparison on the capacitance value measured by the standard liquid detection electrode and the capacitance value measured by a user through the digital circuit CDC, so that measurement errors (common mode interference) caused by environmental factor change can be reduced, the standard liquid is stored in the sealed cavity without frequent replacement, the standard liquid calibration operation when the user carries out skin detection is reduced, the standard liquid calibration is achieved while the measurement is carried out, and the operation is simpler and more convenient.
