摘要：To develop a well designed practical spring-roll dielectric elastomer actuator system, we have to optimize the design parameters of spring-roll dielectric elastomer and develop a voltage supply that is able to pump enough controlled charges and provide a wide range of controlled voltages to the actuator. In this paper, switched based multistage charge pump driven by a controlled low voltage switching power supply and a voltage driver is proposed as a wide range output voltage supply. In this paper, based on the equations of state, new approaches for designing a spring-roll dielectric elastomer actuator have been developed. The key issue of the actuation range depends upon weather the actuator has a fixed load or variable multi-load. The achieved results based on the proposed approaches show that the applied voltage has been reduced and the design of the actuator is getting simpler.
