空気圧駆動ウェアラブルデバイスのための2ポート型エアオペレートバルブの開発

抄録

An air supply system for pneumatic wearable device must be portable. However, it is not easy to realize both portability and performance. Therefore, two-port air-operated valve using the pneumatic soft actuator, which has light weight is developed in this study. In this paper, the structure and principle of developed valve are described, and flow characteristics of the valve is evaluated based on the effective sectional area.
