  • SURFACE SHAPE VARIABLE SHEET AND SURFACE SHAPE VARIABLE DEVICE
    Publication number: 20210076140
    Abstract: A surface shape variable sheet includes: a sheet body made of an elastic material having dielectricity; a first-surface side electrode provided on a first surface side of the sheet body; and a second-surface-side electrode provided on a second surface side that is a back surface of the first surface, the second-surface-side electrode being configured such that a voltage is applied between the second-surface-side electrode and the first-surface-side electrode. The first-surface-side electrode includes: a first electrode facing a first part of the second-surface-side electrode via the sheet body, and a second electrode facing a second part of the second-surface-side electrode via the sheet body, the second electrode being electrically independent from the first electrode on the first surface side.

  • ACTUATOR
    Publication number: 20200287478
    Abstract: An actuator is configured such that a first film body and a second film body are stacked on each other. The first film body includes a first dielectric elastomer film and a first electrode layer provided on a surface of the first dielectric elastomer film. The second film body includes a second dielectric elastomer film and a second electrode layer provided on a surface of the second dielectric elastomer film. The electrode layer included in at least one of the first film body and the second film body includes a plurality of linear electrodes extending in a first direction and provided at intervals in a second direction that is orthogonal to the first direction.
