셀룰로오스 종이 작동기 필름을 이용한 햅틱 액추에이터 및 그 제조 방법Haptic actuator using cellulose paper actuator film and method of manufacturing the same

본 발명은 햅틱 액추에이터 및 그 제조 방법에 관한 것으로서, 보다 구체적으로는 셀룰로오스 종이 작동기 필름을 이용한 햅틱 액추에이터 및 그 제조 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a haptic actuator and a manufacturing method thereof, and more particularly to a haptic actuator using a cellulose paper actuator film and a manufacturing method thereof.

햅틱스(Haptics)란 컴퓨터의 기능 가운데 사용자의 입력 장치인 키보드와 마우스, 조이스틱, 터치스크린 등을 통해 촉각과 힘, 운동감 등을 느끼게 하는 기술을 말한다. 그리스어로 ‘만지는’이라는 뜻의 형용사 ‘haptesthai’에서 온 말로서, 컴퓨터 촉각기술이라고도 한다.Haptics is a technology that makes the user feel the sense of touch, power, and movement through the keyboard, mouse, joystick, and touch screen, which are the input devices of the user. The word comes from the Greek adjective haptesthai, which means "touching." It is also called computer tactile technology.

기존의 컴퓨터 기술은 인간과 컴퓨터가 정보를 주고받는 데 시청각 정보가 주로 이용되었다. 그러나 사용자는 가상현실을 통해 더욱 구체적이고 실감나는 정보를 원하게 되고, 이를 충족시키기 위해 개발된 것이 촉각과 힘까지 전달하는 햅틱 기술이다. 햅틱 기술은 컴퓨터의 터치스크린 등에도 이용되는 기술이며, 이밖에 햅틱 장치와 햅틱 렌더링은 의료 시뮬레이터와 항공기 및 전투기 시뮬레이터, 차량 시뮬레이터, 게임 시뮬레이터를 비롯한 여러 분야에 폭넓게 응용될 수 있다. 앞으로는 현재 컴퓨터의 출력 장치로 쓰이는 모니터, 스피커와 더불어 햅틱 장치도 기본으로 장착되어 갈 전망이다. 또한 여가 산업과 연계하면 그 경제적 잠재력이 매우 크기 때문에 햅틱 기술에 대한 연구가 매우 활발해질 것으로 보인다.Conventional computer technology mainly uses audiovisual information to exchange information with humans and computers. However, the user wants more specific and realistic information through virtual reality, and the haptic technology that is developed to satisfy it is a haptic technology that delivers touch and power. Haptic technology is used in touch screens of computers and the like. In addition, haptic devices and haptic renderings can be widely applied to various fields including medical simulators, aircraft and fighter simulators, vehicle simulators, and game simulators. In the future, haptic devices are expected to be installed as well as monitors and speakers used as output devices of computers. In addition, it is expected that research on haptic technology will be very active because of its great economic potential in connection with the leisure industry.

그러나 종래의 햅틱 장치는 그 크기가 크고 두께가 두꺼워서 모니터나 액정 등 시각 디스플레이에 적용하기에는 어려움이 있다. 또한, 투명도가 낮아서 시각 디스플레이 장치 위에 적용할 수 없고, 장치 내부에 내장시켜야 하는 한계가 있다. 또한, 햅틱 장치에 사용되는 폴리머(polymer)와 같은 성분은 환경오염의 원인 물질이 되는 문제가 있다.However, the conventional haptic device is difficult to be applied to a visual display such as a monitor or liquid crystal due to its large size and thick thickness. In addition, the transparency is low, it cannot be applied on the visual display device, and there is a limit to be embedded inside the device. In addition, a component such as a polymer (polymer) used in the haptic device has a problem that becomes a source of environmental pollution.

도 8은 본 발명의 일실시예에 따른 셀룰로오스 기반의 필름형 햅틱 액추에이터의 제조 방법에 의해 제조된 햅틱 액추에이터를 도시한 도면이다. 도 8에 도시된 바와 같이, 본 발명의 일실시예에 따른 셀룰로오스 기반의 필름형 햅틱 액추에이터의 제조 방법에 따라 제조된 햅틱 액추에이터는, 하판(10), 작동부(20), 및 지지대(30)를 포함하여 구성될 수 있으며, 전극(50)을 더 포함하여 구성될 수 있다.8 is a diagram illustrating a haptic actuator manufactured by a method for manufacturing a cellulose-based film-type haptic actuator according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 8, the haptic actuator manufactured according to the method for manufacturing a cellulose-based haptic actuator according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a lower plate 10, an operation unit 20, and a support 30. It may be configured to include, and may further comprise an electrode (50).

즉, 본 발명에 의해 제조된 햅틱 액추에이터는 도 8에 도시된 바와 같이, 하판(10), 작동부(20) 및 지지대(30)를 포함함으로써, 하판(10)과 작동부(20) 사이에 공동(40)을 형성할 수 있다. 외부에서 전기가 인가되면 공동(40)에 정전기력이 유도되며, 유도된 정전기력의 종류 및 크기에 따라 공동(40)의 두께가 변화되고, 공동(40)의 두께 변화에 따라 작동부(20)가 변형되는 것을 특징으로 한다. 이때, 공동(40)에 척력이 유도되면 공동(40)이 팽창하여 작동부(20)가 볼록하게 변형되고, 인력이 유도되면 공동(40)이 압축되어 작동부(20)가 오목하게 변형됨으로써, 공동(40)의 두께 변화에 따라 사용자가 촉각을 느끼도록 할 수 있는 것이다. 특히, 작동부(20)는 팽창 또는 압축되는 공동(40)에 따라 그 형태를 변형시킬 수 있는 셀룰로오스를 기반으로 하는 박막으로 구성함으로써 사용자가 공동(40)의 변형 상태를 느낄 수 있다.That is, the haptic actuator manufactured by the present invention, as shown in Figure 8, by including a lower plate 10, the operation unit 20 and the support 30, between the lower plate 10 and the operation unit 20 The cavity 40 can be formed. When electricity is applied from the outside, the electrostatic force is induced in the cavity 40, the thickness of the cavity 40 is changed according to the type and size of the induced electrostatic force, and the operating part 20 is changed in accordance with the thickness change of the cavity 40. It is characterized by being deformed. At this time, when the repulsive force is induced in the cavity 40, the cavity 40 expands to convexly deform the operating part 20, and when the attraction force is induced, the cavity 40 is compressed to deform the operating part 20 concavely. , According to the thickness change of the cavity 40, the user can feel the tactile. In particular, the operation unit 20 may be made of a thin film based on cellulose that can change its shape according to the cavity 40 to be expanded or compressed, so that the user can feel the deformation state of the cavity 40.

전극(50)은 외부로부터 전기를 인가하는 역할을 하며, 도 8에 도시된 바와 같이 한 쌍의 전극(50)으로 구성될 수 있다. 전극(50)은 금과 같이 전기가 잘 통하는 금속으로 구성될 수 있으나, 단가를 고려하여 금속 성분을 조절할 수 있다. 도 8에서는, 하판(10)과 작동부(20)의 윗면에 각각 전극(50)을 배치하였으나, 하판(10)의 아랫면, 작동부(20)의 윗면에 각각 전극(50)을 배치할 수도 있고, 용도 등에 따라 전극(50)의 배치는 얼마든지 변경될 수 있다.The electrode 50 serves to apply electricity from the outside, and may be composed of a pair of electrodes 50 as shown in FIG. 8. The electrode 50 may be made of an electrically conductive metal such as gold, but the metal component may be adjusted in consideration of the unit cost. In FIG. 8, the electrodes 50 are disposed on the upper surfaces of the lower plate 10 and the operation unit 20, but the electrodes 50 may be disposed on the lower surfaces of the lower plate 10 and the upper surfaces of the operation unit 20, respectively. In addition, the arrangement of the electrodes 50 may be changed as much as necessary.

한편, 본 발명의 일실시예에 따라 제조되는 셀룰로오스 기반의 필름형 햅틱 액추에이터를 다양한 분야, 특히 시-촉각 입출력 소자인 TAXEL 모듈에서 촉각 제시 장치로 활용하기 위해서는, 소모 전력이 낮고 소형이면서도, 사용자가 촉각을 느낄 수 있도록 충분한 힘과 변형을 가져야 하는 등의 특성이 요구된다.On the other hand, in order to utilize the cellulose-based film-type haptic actuator manufactured according to an embodiment of the present invention as a tactile presentation device in various fields, in particular, the TAXEL module, which is a tactile input / output device, the power consumption is low and small, It is necessary to have enough strength and deformation to feel the touch.

하판(10)과 작동부(20)로 사용될 수 있는 셀룰로오스는, 다른 물질보다 홀(hole)이 많아 전하를 쉽게 보유할 수 있기 때문에, 내부에 전하를 쌓아 정전기력을 이용하여 진동력을 발생시킬 수 있다. 또한, 셀룰로오스는 투명도가 매우 높고 유연한 기계적 특성을 지닌 자연 고분자 재료로서, 환경 및 인체 친화적이며, 압전 효과, 이온 전이 효과 등이 있어 다양한 기능성 센서로 응용할 수 있는 재료이다. 특히, 셀룰로오스는 10V 이하의 낮은 전압 하에서도 큰 변형을 만들어낼 뿐 아니라, 소모 전력이 300㎽ 이하로 낮아서 모바일 장치의 적용에 있어 큰 장점이 있다.Since the cellulose that can be used as the lower plate 10 and the operation unit 20 has more holes than other materials and can easily hold electric charges, the cellulose can be accumulated inside to generate vibration force by using electrostatic force. have. In addition, cellulose is a natural polymer material having very high transparency and flexible mechanical properties, and is environmentally and human-friendly, and has a piezoelectric effect, an ion transfer effect, and the like, which can be applied to various functional sensors. In particular, cellulose not only produces a large deformation even under a low voltage of 10V or less, but also has a great advantage in the application of a mobile device because power consumption is lower than 300 kW.

특히, 셀룰로오스 아세테이트(Cellulose Acetate)는 셀룰로오스를 주원료로 한 재료로써 비정질 구조로 이루어져 있다. 셀룰로오스 아세테이트는 원료의 단가가 저렴하고 성형이 쉬울 뿐 아니라 정전 특성에 높은 강점이 있다. 특히, 셀룰로오스 아세테이트는 비정질 구조로 이루어져 있기 때문에 잔류 분극이 존재하는 순수한 재생 셀룰로오스에 비해 정전 효과를 이용할 때 회복 능력이 뛰어나다.In particular, cellulose acetate (Cellulose Acetate) is a cellulose-based material consisting of an amorphous structure. Cellulose acetate has the advantages of low cost of raw materials, easy molding, and high electrostatic properties. In particular, since the cellulose acetate is composed of an amorphous structure, the recovery ability is excellent when using the electrostatic effect compared to pure regenerated cellulose with residual polarization.

셀룰로오스 아세테이트 박막은 회전 도포법에 의해 투명 박막 형태로 제조될 수 있다. 셀룰로오스 아세테이트는 일반적으로 방사법을 통해 섬유 형태로 제조되므로, 일정한 강도를 지닌 투명 박막 형태로 제조하기 위해서 회전 도포법이 적용될 수 있다. 즉, 셀룰로오스 아세테이트 분말을 순도가 높은 아세톤에 녹여 셀룰로오스 아세테이트 용액을 만들고, 이 용액을 회전 도포기에서 수회에 걸쳐 도포와 고형화 작업을 반복하면 투명도가 뛰어나고 표면의 편평도가 높은 셀룰로오스 아세테이트 박막을 얻을 수 있다. 이때, 셀룰로오스 아세테이트 분말을 아세톤에 15wt% 정도로 녹인 셀룰로오스 아세테이트 용액을 사용할 수 있다.The cellulose acetate thin film may be prepared in the form of a transparent thin film by a rotary coating method. Since cellulose acetate is generally manufactured in a fiber form by spinning, a rotary coating method may be applied to produce a transparent thin film having a certain strength. In other words, by dissolving cellulose acetate powder in acetone with high purity to form a cellulose acetate solution, the solution is repeatedly applied and solidified several times in a rotary applicator to obtain a cellulose acetate thin film having excellent transparency and high surface flatness. . In this case, a cellulose acetate solution in which cellulose acetate powder is dissolved in acetone by about 15 wt% may be used.

도 9는 본 발명의 일실시예에 따른 셀룰로오스 기반의 필름형 햅틱 액추에이터의 제조 방법에서 회전 도포법에 의해 제조된 셀룰로오스 아세테이트 박막의 측면을 도시한 도면이다. 도 9는 주사현미경으로 촬영한 사진으로서, 셀룰로오스 아세테이트 입자가 매우 고르고 밀도 있게 분포되어 있으며, 미세한 공기층을 고루 포함하는 다공성 해면 구조로 되어 있어, 회전 도포법에 의해 대전 되기 쉬운 형태의 셀룰로오스 아세테이트 박막을 제조할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있다.Figure 9 is a view showing the side of the cellulose acetate thin film prepared by a rotation coating method in the manufacturing method of the cellulose-based film-type haptic actuator according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 9 is a photograph taken by a scanning microscope, in which cellulose acetate particles are very evenly and densely distributed, and have a porous sponge structure including a fine air layer. It can be confirmed that it can be produced.

도 10은 본 발명의 일실시예에 따른 셀룰로오스 기반의 필름형 햅틱 액추에이터의 제조 방법의 흐름에 따른 공정을 도시한 도면이다. 이하에서는, 도 7, 도 8 및 도 10을 참조하여, 본 발명의 일실시예에 따른 셀룰로오스 기반의 필름형 햅틱 액추에이터의 제조 방법에 대해 상세하게 설명하도록 한다.10 is a view showing a process according to the flow of the manufacturing method of the cellulose-based film-type haptic actuator according to an embodiment of the present invention. Hereinafter, with reference to FIGS. 7, 8 and 10, it will be described in detail with respect to the manufacturing method of the cellulose-based haptic actuator according to an embodiment of the present invention.

단계 S100에서는, 기판(80) 윗면에 하판(10)을 부착할 수 있다. 본 발명의 일실시예에 따른 셀룰로오스 기반의 필름형 햅틱 액추에이터는, 매우 얇은 박막 형태의 판을 붙여서 얇고 투명한 필름 형태로 제조되므로, 제조를 원활하게 하기 위해 기판(80) 위에서 제조할 수 있다. 기판(80)은 집적 회로 등을 만드는 기판(80)으로 많이 사용되는 실리콘 웨이퍼(Silicon wafer)일 수 있다. 이때, 기판(80) 위에 부착하는 하판(10)은 셀룰로오스 박막일 수 있다.In step S100, the lower plate 10 may be attached to the upper surface of the substrate 80. The cellulose-based haptic actuator according to an embodiment of the present invention is manufactured in the form of a thin and transparent film by attaching a plate of a very thin film form, and thus may be manufactured on the substrate 80 to facilitate the manufacture. The substrate 80 may be a silicon wafer that is widely used as a substrate 80 for making an integrated circuit or the like. In this case, the lower plate 10 attached on the substrate 80 may be a cellulose thin film.

하판(10)은, 박막 형태일 수 있는데, 투명도가 뛰어난 유연 고분자 재료로 하는 것이 바람직하다. 특히, 하판(10)은 작동부(20)와 동일하게 정전 특성이 우수한 셀룰로오스 박막으로 할 수 있으며, 더욱 바람직하게는 회전 도포법에 의해 투명 박막 형태로 제조된 셀룰로오스 아세테이트 박막으로 할 수 있다.Although the lower plate 10 may be in the form of a thin film, it is preferable to use a flexible polymer material having excellent transparency. In particular, the lower plate 10 may be a cellulose thin film excellent in electrostatic properties similarly to the operation unit 20, and more preferably may be a cellulose acetate thin film manufactured in the form of a transparent thin film by a rotation coating method.

단계 S200에서는, 하판(10)의 윗면에 포토레지스트(35)를 도포할 수 있다. 포토레지스트(35)를 도포하는 것은 도 8에 도시된 바와 같은, 지지대(30)를 형성하기 위한 것이다. 포토레지스트(35)는 고분자와 감광제가 섞인 혼합물로서 빛에 의해 그 화학적인 성질이 변화하여, 빛에 노출을 시키면 특정 용매에 대한 용해도가 크게 바뀌는 재료를 뜻한다.In step S200, the photoresist 35 may be applied to the upper surface of the lower plate 10. Applying photoresist 35 is for forming support 30, as shown in FIG. 8. The photoresist 35 is a mixture of a polymer and a photosensitizer. The photoresist 35 refers to a material whose chemical properties are changed by light, and solubility in a specific solvent is greatly changed when exposed to light.

단계 S200에서는, 포토레지스트(35)를 90~110㎛로 도포할 수 있다. 단계 S200에서 도포하는 포토레지스트(35)는 지지대(30)의 역할을 하기 때문에, 공동(40)에 인력이 유도된 상태의 작동을 충분히 뒷받침할 수 있는 높이를 유지해야 하므로 90~110㎛ 정도의 두께로 형성하는 것이 바람직하다.In step S200, the photoresist 35 may be coated with 90 μm to 110 μm. Since the photoresist 35 to be applied in step S200 serves as a support 30, it should maintain a height that can sufficiently support the operation of the attraction force induced in the cavity 40 of about 90 ~ 110㎛ It is preferable to form in thickness.

단계 S300에서는, 포토마스크(60)를 이용하여 노광 공정을 수행할 수 있다. 이때, 포토마스크(60)는 픽셀 단위의 격자 또는 라인 패턴일 수 있다. 즉, 포토마스크(60)의 패턴을 원하는 지지대(30)의 형태대로 하고, 단계 S200에서 도포한 포토레지스트(35) 위에 놓고 빛에 노출시켜 포토마스크(60)의 패턴이 그대로 포토레지스트(35)에 옮겨지도록 하는 것이다. 본 발명에서는, 사용자에게 햅틱 감각을 제공하고자 하는 픽셀 단위의 격자 또는 라인 패턴을 가진 포토마스크(60)를 사용하여, 사용자가 미세한 촉각을 느낄 수 있도록 할 수 있다. 픽셀의 크기는 사용자가 인지할 수 있는 크기로 함이 바람직하며, 용도에 따라 0.1~20㎜ 등 다양하게 할 수 있다.In operation S300, an exposure process may be performed using the photomask 60. In this case, the photomask 60 may be a grid or line pattern in units of pixels. That is, the pattern of the photomask 60 is in the form of a desired support 30, placed on the photoresist 35 applied in step S200 and exposed to light so that the pattern of the photomask 60 remains as it is. To be transferred to. In the present invention, the photomask 60 having a grid or line pattern in a pixel unit to provide a haptic sensation to the user may be used to allow the user to feel fine tactile sensations. The size of the pixel is preferably a size that can be recognized by the user, it can be various, such as 0.1 ~ 20mm depending on the application.

단계 S400에서는, 단계 S200에서 도포된 포토레지스트(35)를 부분적으로 제거하여 지지대(30)를 형성할 수 있다. 포토레지스트(35)를 빛에 노출시키면 화학적 성질이 변화하게 되므로, 포토레지스트(35)를 이용한 식각(Lithography) 기술을 이용하여 지지대(30)를 형성할 수 있다. 지지대(30)는 단계 S300의 포토마스크(60)의 형태에 따라 형성되게 된다. 단계 S400에서 부분적으로 제거된 부분이 추후 공동(40)이 되며, 이 부분에 유도된 정전기력에 의해 사용자가 촉각을 느낄 수 있게 된다.In step S400, the photoresist 35 applied in step S200 may be partially removed to form the support 30. Since the chemical properties are changed when the photoresist 35 is exposed to light, the support 30 may be formed using a lithography technique using the photoresist 35. The support 30 is formed according to the shape of the photomask 60 of step S300. The part that is partially removed in step S400 becomes a cavity 40 later, and the user can feel the touch by the electrostatic force induced in this part.

단계 S500에서는, 지지대(30) 위에 접착층(70)을 형성할 수 있다. 접착층(70)은 지지대(30)와 작동부(20)를 부착하기 위한 것으로서, 지지대(30)나 작동부(20)를 훼손하지 않아야 한다. 접착층(70)은 폴리비닐 아세테이트(Polyvinyl Acetate)로 형성될 수 있다.In step S500, the adhesive layer 70 may be formed on the support 30. The adhesive layer 70 is for attaching the support 30 and the operation unit 20, and should not damage the support 30 or the operation unit 20. The adhesive layer 70 may be formed of polyvinyl acetate.

단계 S600에서는, 단계 S400에서 형성된 지지대(30) 위에 작동부(20)를 부착할 수 있으며, 단계 S500에서 형성된 접착층(70)에 의해 서로 부착될 수 있다. 작동부(20)는 전기 신호에 따라 형태를 변형시킬 수 있기 때문에, 사용자가 작동부(20)의 변형에 따라 촉각을 느낄 수 있게 된다. 작동부(20)를 부착함으로써, 하판(10)과 작동부(20) 사이에는 공동(40)이 형성되게 된다. 작동부(20)는 전기 신호에 따라 그 형태가 변형될 수 있는 셀룰로오스 박막일 수 있으며, 더욱 바람직하게는 투명도가 높고 대전되기 쉬운 셀룰로오스 아세테이트 박막일 수 있다. 특히, 도 9에 도시된 바와 같이, 회전 도포법에 의해 제조된 셀룰로오스 아세테이트 박막은 투명도가 높고 대전되기 쉽기 때문에 작동부로 사용하면 효과적인 햅틱을 제공할 수 있다.In step S600, the operation unit 20 may be attached onto the support 30 formed in step S400, and may be attached to each other by the adhesive layer 70 formed in step S500. Since the operation unit 20 can change the shape according to the electrical signal, the user can feel the touch according to the deformation of the operation unit 20. By attaching the operation part 20, the cavity 40 is formed between the lower plate 10 and the operation part 20.
