Background technology
Needing main equipment to carry out the occasion of accurate operation, as adopt mechanical arm to carry out the outer detection of pipeline etc., this moment, mechanical arm reached several meters, this just requires arm itself to have very high rigidity, and the mechanical arm of avoiding simultaneously high rigidity again collides with detected pipeline outer wall and causes piping failure.Usually the method that adopts is to realize by the SERVO CONTROL to motor.This method is relatively poor to the system effect of response lag, in case and sensor break down, this method of servo-controlling based on sensing will lose efficacy.Therefore, exist certain potential safety hazard.Can avoid to a certain degree damage if method that elastic buffering mechanism absorbs impact is installed on the employing joint, but the rigidity of system can reduce greatly, the motion control performance will descend thereupon.
Find through literature search prior art, Yang Chengliang adopts oil buffer will be rigidly connected to change in document " the improvement design of the big arm buffer of car puller " (" harbour science and technology harbour machinery " PP35-36) and flexibly connects, when bump produces, piston rod shrinks, and forces hydraulic oil to flow in the accumulator, thereby produces resistance, in the process of whole bump, the pressure of hydraulic cylinder remains necessarily, produces the decelerative force of a constant size, and promptly constant acceleration slows down.When impact stroke finished, back-moving spring pushed back original position with piston rod, and accumulator discharges hydraulic oil, impacted to wait for next time.Its characteristics are alleviated external impulsive force for the damping of flowing by fluid, and the active force during stop is similar to constant, do uniformly retarded motion thereby piston is similar to.Owing to adopted accumulator, the volume of this method is bigger, simultaneously because of hydraulic pressure wet goods reason, impost seriously increases, only be suitable for volume and weight is not had the occasion of strict demand, simultaneously, this method also can reduce the contact stiffness of system, make the effective operation power of end effector reduce,, increased the non-linear and lag factor of system because of using hydraulic oil as buffer medium, make that again control accuracy is difficult to guarantee, therefore, this method is not suitable for the occasion that needs fine manipulation, can only be applied in the working environment that only needs simple buffering.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to overcome deficiency of the prior art, a kind of safety type rigidity variable mechanical joint is provided, the dual stiffness characteristics of low rigidity when high rigidity when making it have operation simultaneously and damping of shocks, the colleague, volume is small and exquisite, and compact conformation is easy for installation, be particularly useful for fine manipulation mechanical arm that volume and weight is had higher requirements, as occasions such as large-scale outdoor work mobile robots.
The present invention is achieved by the following technical solutions, the present invention includes: motor, motor output shaft, mechanical arm, motor connecting axle, fixedly support and a plurality of change rigidity constraint cylindrical shell.Motor output shaft and mechanical arm are fastenedly connected.The motor connecting axle is the prism with regular polygon cross section, and an end and motor are fastenedly connected, and the side then assigns into fixedly in the support.Fixedly support is the column structure of hollow, connects a plurality of change rigidity constraint cylindrical shells along its circumferencial direction with the angle same fixed interval.Fixedly support is realized the fastening of motor connecting axle by change rigidity constraint cylindrical shell and is supported.
Described change rigidity constraint cylindrical shell is made up of interior push rod, electromagnet, resiliency supported, steel ball, barrel five parts.Interior push rod, electromagnet, resiliency supported, steel ball are revolving body, be encapsulated in the barrel and with the axis coaxle of barrel, the steel ball that becomes in the rigidity constraint cylindrical shell contacts with the side plane of motor connecting axle under the effect of resiliency supported all the time, one end of resiliency supported contacts with interior push rod, the other end contacts with steel ball, and electromagnet and barrel are fastenedly connected.When electromagnet was switched on, interior push rod compressed steel ball under the effect of electromagnetic force; Under the state of electromagnet outage, interior push rod breaks away from steel ball under the effect of resiliency supported.
The present invention reaches the purpose that the joint becomes rigidity control by becoming rigidity constraint cylindrical shell.Under the situation of making a concerted effort of mechanical arm and external environment condition contact force and resiliency supported less than the suction-combining force of electromagnet, when electromagnet is in "on" position, interior push rod rigidity acts on the steel ball, thereby realize motor connecting axle and the fixedly pure positive drive between the support, at this moment whole system externally shows as the characteristic in rigidity joint; When electromagnet is in off-position, interior push rod breaks away from steel ball, steel ball just keeps in touch with the side of motor connecting axle under the effect of resiliency supported, this moment motor connecting axle and fixedly be in flexible drive state between the support, the moment of torsion that transmits depends on the elastic deformation coefficient of resiliency supported, and at this moment whole system externally shows as the characteristic of flexible joint.
Under the situation greater than the electromagnet the suction-combining force with joint efforts of mechanical arm and external environment condition contact force and resiliency supported; interior push rod breaks away from and the tight state of contact of steel ball; system just can switch to the flexible joint state by rigidity joint state automatically, thereby can be implemented in the fortuitous event of no control signal the protection to motor and robotic arm manipulation object.Therefore, behind the necessary service load that calculates system, model by choose reasonable electromagnet and resiliency supported and the number that becomes rigidity constraint cylindrical shell just can satisfy the high-precision operation of mechanical arm simultaneously, system are had do not rely on the essential safety characteristic of external sensor.
In addition, by control, use system of the present invention to reflect abundant more change rigidity characteristic, thereby can satisfy complicated more job requirements electromagnet switching electricity.
Safety type rigidity variable mechanical joint of the present invention has alleviated the load and the power consumption of mechanical arm, improved the security of external operation, problems such as having solved simultaneously in the general buffer gear just, gentlely can't take into account simultaneously, terminal kinematic accuracy is not high is especially in field of special robots.
