Description
(1) technical field
What the present invention relates to is that a kind of robot drives joint module, particularly a kind of multi-foot robot elastic driving joint module that adopts the modular construction design.
(2) background technology
Bionics (Bionics) is a comprehensive science that occurs the sixties in 20th century, it by life science and engineering subject interpenetrate, mutually combining forms, by structure, function, operation principle and the controlling mechanism of learning, imitating, duplicating and reproducing biosystem, improve existing or creationary machinery, instrument, building and technical process.Because the dexterity that bio-robot had action has great help for Human's production and scientific research activity, bio-robot becomes an important directions in current robot research field.
The gait of present bionical polypody walking robot, the parameter of attitude all are directly to obtain from the research to human or animal's walking posture.The walking of humans and animals is to produce coordination by the elasticity in shank bone, muscle and joint and the commander of pliability and the mankind or animal higher nerve system.But what walking robot adopted mostly at present is rigidity leg structure, do not have good elasticity between leg joint, therefore in the high speed walking foot over the ground face moment can produce greater impact, caused the high vibration in each joint, very easily body is caused damage, influenced the stability of robot ambulation.Sometimes have to exchange the stability and security of robot ambulation for to sacrifice movement velocity.Therefore how to reduce impact and become a problem that presses for solution in the walking robot technical development.
In the robot running, the quality of robot, rotary inertia, swing speed and walking speed relative fixed, so reduce impact by quality and rotary inertia that reduces robot or the method that reduces swing speed and walking speed, do not conform to the actual conditions utmost point.Event has only consideration to add flexible member in walking mechanism or uses highly elastic material, makes it have spring function, so neither underspeeds, again can be in the face of the impact of robot with reducing, and the utmost point is beneficial to robot quick and stable ground walking continuously.
At home by a kind of novel elasticity walking mechanism (Ma Jianxu, Ma Peisun, Yang Baozhong, the Wang Aiping of people such as Ma Jianxu design, a kind of novel leg structure damping characteristics in the four feet walking robot, Shanghai Communications University's journal, 1999, (07)), be that the quadric chain of frame is composited by four groups of flexible members in parallel with the robot leg shell.When the walking robot foot lands, body is owing to the inertia of stepping on down, driving lower link compression spring by robot leg moves downward, lower link drives connecting rod swing again, because spring conductor rod links to each other with the support foot, then the upper hinge of connecting rod is connected with stationary end. when two connecting rods are straight line owing to the compression of spring, linkage arrives the dead-centre position, hold connecting rod 1 so that linkage remains on the dead-centre position by the control electromagnet, thereby the impact energy that absorbs in the spring is locked in the elastic leg.Magnechuck in the control elastic leg makes its dead electricity and the energy of storing in the elastic leg is discharged under certain gait then, and auxiliary robot is lifted the leg swing.Though this structure has solved the elastic problem of joint of robot to a certain extent, but its structure is too complicated, and can only produce rectilinear motion, can not be applied to each joint of multi-foot robot, the external form of this mechanism is excessive, is unfavorable for the miniaturization of bio-robot.
The elastic driver that people such as the breadboard David W.Robinson of Massachusetts Institute of Technology's shank design is arranged abroad, (Gill A Pratt, Lexington, MA (US), David W Robinson, Manchester, NH (US) FORCE-CONTROLLED HYDRO-ELASTIC ACTUATOR, Massachusetts Instituteof Technology, Cambridge, MA (US) .2002) motor and two kinds of drive patterns of hydraulic cylinder are arranged, during by motor-driven, the driven by motor ball-screw produces rectilinear motion, and nut is connected with output mechanism by four compression springs, its design feature is that one group of spring is housed between power source and load, makes it bear the driving force of power source and the reaction force of load separately.The same existence of this structure can only produce shortcomings such as rectilinear motion, external form be excessive, can not be widely used in the bionical multi-foot robot of miniaturization.
