| الوصف: | Soft grippers, generating movement immediately, are generally based on flexible materials actuated by air pressure and comprised of bulky parts, including valves, compressors/pumps, motors, and tubes. In this work, a compact soft gripper with the ability to actuate with a low boiling point liquid (acetone) is presented. SolidWorks 2021 software and 3D printing technology are used to design and manufacture the gripper molds, respectively. The constitutive material of the soft gripper body is highly flexible Ecoflex. A silver‐coated nylon fabric (SCNF) heater reinforced with stainless steel yarn (SSY) covering the external surface of the gripper is designed and manufactured using Autocad 2021 and a laser cutting machine, respectively. The idea is inspired by floating the gripper in warm water to provide smooth heat over a large surface area. The available commercial software Abaqus2021 is used to simulate the mechanical deformation of the gripper, and its results are verified with experimental results. The parameter's effect including the voltage and low boiling liquid volume on achievable force and actuating time are investigated. The relation between the electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties of the presented gripper is discussed in detail. |
