More Information
Summary:An electroadhesive clutch that establishes a quick, electrically-controllable connection of two components capable of transmitting complex loading across the connection. The quick connection is comprised of at least two electrodes separated by a dielectric material, where one of the electrodes is flexible. The dielectric material may coat or otherwise be attached to one or several electrodes or, alternatively, be placed between opposing electrodes.
