<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a small-sized and light-weight tactile force display hand capable of presenting accurate tactile force and provided with the concrete constitution of a practical level including the easiness of manufacture, and its manufacturing method. <P>SOLUTION: A plurality of bone members 1 are connected by a connecting member 2 and made freely movable at the part of the connecting member and an elastic expansion / contraction body 3 is fixed to the bone member 1 over the connecting member 2. As the elastic expansion / contraction body 3, an air pressure actuator to be extended in a length direction by the impression of an air pressure for instance is used. A plurality of the air pressure actuators are connected to an air pressure controller 11 respectively by a plurality of air pressure introducing routes 10 such as tubes and driven by controlling the air pressure. A fingerstall 5 is connected to the bone member 1, a finger is fitted to the fingerstall 5, the tactile force display hand is fixed to the back of a hand by the fixture 6 of the hand similarly connected to the bone member 1 and it is mounted. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO</p> |
