Artificial skin element for robot i.e. robot hand, has elastically-deformable distance pieces arranged between lower and outer layers, and cooling medium-flow path formed between supply pipe and discharge pipe in flow volume

摘要

The element has a lower layer (102) made from polymer material, and an elastically deformable outer layer (101) arranged at a distance from the lower layer. Elastically-deformable distance pieces (103) are arranged between the lower and outer layers for connecting the lower and outer layers. A flow volume is formed between the distance pieces, where liquid cooling medium flows through the flow volume. The flow volume has a cooling medium supply pipe and a cooling medium discharge pipe. A cooling medium-flow path is formed between the supply pipe and the discharge pipe in the flow volume.
