CONTACT PRESSURE MEASUREMENT ON A BIOMEDICAL PUMP BY FILM SENSORS
|
| |
|
Summary :
|
|
IN THIS WORK THE PROBLEM TO MEASURE THE CONTACT PRESSURE DISTRIBUTION BETWEEN TWO ELEMENTS OF A BIO-MEDICAL PUMP IS CONSIDERED. WHAT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW ARE THE SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION OF PRESSURE AND ITS EVOLUTION IN TIME IN ORDER TO BETTER DESIGN PUMP COMPONENTS. A POLYMERIC CAPACITIVE SENSOR MATRIX HAS BEEN SELECTED AND A PROTOTYPE SENSING ELEMENT HAS BEEN TESTED IN ORDER TO DEFINE METROLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND DYNAMIC PROPERTIES. A SINGLE SENSING ELEMENT HAS BEEN USED TO PERFORM PRELIMINARY MEASUREMENT INSIDE THE PUMP IN ORDER TO SPECIFY METROLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MATRIX. |
