Description

The active Wrist mechanism that is used for mechanical arm or snake-shaped robot
Technical field
What the present invention relates to is a kind of device of field of mechanical technique, specifically, is a kind of active Wrist mechanism that is used for mechanical arm or snake-shaped robot.
Background technology
At present, aspect production and life, especially in hazardous environment and extreme environment operation, there is very application prospects in robot as a kind of special machine that the mankind create.Robot is just replacing people being engaged in various work, such as certain objects is accurately located, operation such as detection, imaging or rescue.The robot wrist is the parts that connect end-effector and mechanical arm, and its main effect is the orientation of regulating or change workpiece, so it has the independently free degree, so that robot end's operator adapts to complicated action request.Typical robot wrist has two classes: (1) is directly driven by hydraulic motor and constitutes; (2) constitute by gear drive.Using more now is the 3DOF wrist, its mostly adopts multiaxis differential train to constitute, and various robot wrists are existing the driving member complexity in varying degrees, can reach that area of space is little, the attitude positioning accuracy is not high, make difficulty and the not high shortcoming of the degree of modularity.
Through the literature search of prior art is found, number of patent application is 02129665.0 and is called " driving robot wrist ", this art designs a kind of two~three-rotational-freedom driving robot wrist.This wrist is by last rotary body, down rotary body and output constitute, and the described rotary body of going up connects by bearing with following rotary body, and its inside is provided with double universal coupler, and output is sleeved on the output shaft and with last rotary body and is connected.Though the three-rotational-freedom driving robot wrist has been selected the kind of drive of " universal coupling is nested with bevel gear-face gear " for use in this invention, and two rotational freedom wrists have been removed bevel gear---Meshing Pair and respective drive structure that face gear constitutes, robot wrist inside also be provided with slippage secondary and make with the light metal alloy material described on rotary body and following rotary body, make that this driving robot wrist running is more flexible, light, and structure shows compact slightly than other structure, orientation capability is good, degree of modularity height, be convenient to advantages such as the system integration, but this mechanism's complicated integral structure and compact inadequately, the formation principle complexity of rotational freedom, the irregular encapsulation property that causes of outward appearance is bad, so that the practicality of above-mentioned technology is high not enough and be subjected to very big restriction.
Summary of the invention
The present invention is directed to the deficiencies in the prior art, provide a kind of amount of parts few, simple and compact for structure, the degree of modularity is higher and can realize the active Wrist mechanism that is used for mechanical arm or snake-shaped robot of plug and play, has solved the problem that robot wrist's transmission system complexity, structure are compact inadequately in the prior art, the degree of modularity is not high.
The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions.The present invention includes: two motors, two bevel gears, two gear wheels, two pinions, two potentiometers, two scalloped end face cone gears, cross coupling spindle, four supports, two fixedly end cap, two motor sleeve, two union ends, bellowss.The motor that places two motor sleeve inside respectively with two fixedly end cap fix.Two bevel gears and two gear wheels are fixedlyed connected with the output shaft of motor simultaneously.Two gear wheels again respectively be fixed on two pinion on the potentiometric output shaft to detect the angular displacement in joint.Two axles of cross coupling spindle are 90 degree and intersect.Two scalloped end face cone gears are affixed with two axles of cross coupling spindle respectively, bevel gear and scalloped end face cone gears engaged.The cross coupling spindle connects support by four identical supports, can rotate freely.Four supports are fixed on up and down respectively symmetrically, and two stiff ends cover.Bellows connects two fixedly end caps, forms a complete airtight mechanism.The present invention has laterally zygomorphic two rotational freedom structures, by the transmission order of motor, bevel gear, fan-shaped face gear, cross coupling spindle, two that drive the cross coupling spindle respectively are pitching and two rotational freedoms of swing that the crossing axle of 90 degree is realized whole module.
Driving robot wrist among the present invention has not only been selected the kind of drive of " the cross coupling spindle is nested with bevel gear one scalloped end face cone gear " for use, promptly the cross coupling spindle nested with fan-shaped section gear affixed and by bevel gear and and fan-shaped section gear meshing come the rotation of " directly " driving cross coupling spindle, and realized the blocking and the modularization of the higher degree of wrist joint.Its outstanding advantage is: moulded small and exquisite, outward appearance is regular and weight is light and handy, structure is more compact, orientation capability is good, the encapsulation of actuated element and driving element is good, the degree of modularity is high, the system integration of being more convenient for.The mechanism that two rotational freedom structures are arranged among the present invention promptly can be used as individual module and uses, and also can constitute binary end effector by connecting with robot body, perhaps is connected in series more module and is used for snake-shaped robot.
The present invention utilizes the characteristics of cross coupling spindle structure will be not directly not carry out 90 degree at same axis or two bigger axles of the bigger or axial offset distance of axis knuckle to intersect, and realize that motor rotates and the linear relationship of joint angles, transmitting torque and motion reliably simultaneously.Have compact conformation, the transmission efficiency height is maintained outstanding advantages such as convenient.Especially the kind of drive of " cross coupling spindle and bevel gear---fan-shaped face gear is nested " has improved integrally-built compactedness especially, packing of bellows makes entire mechanism seal fully in addition, overall appearance is rule succinctly, improve the practicality of this mechanism greatly, remedied the deficiency of conventional art.
