Abstract：The tripolar electrostatic adhesion model was proposed based on the characteristic of the electric field distribution of the electrostatic aolhesion array for deficiency of existing electrostatic adhesion methods.The finite element analysis method was used to optimize the electrode gap,electrode width and the thickness of insulation layer of the electrostatic aolhesion array for maximal adhesion force output.Experimental results and finite element simulation had good consistency, to verify the effectiveness of the tripolar structure design.In the actual design process, in meet the breakdown characteristics between the electrode and wear-resisting properties of insulation layer surface, it should reduce the electrode width and the thickness of insulating layer, increase the number of electrodes, so as to increase the overall length of the edge of the electrode array to improve the adsorption force of electrostatic adsorption array.
