Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of bionics, and particularly relates to a foot pad of a bionic wet-sucking wall-climbing robot with a semispherical microstructure. The foot pad comprises a foot pad substrate, a foot pad microstructure array and an ejected liquid micro flow path; when the foot pad is manufactured, the foot pad substrate, the foot pad microstructure array and the ejected liquid micro flow path are integrally manufactured by casting silicon rubber, and are installed on a wall-climbing robot by using screws through through holes on a foot pad substrate plane. According to the foot pad, the area of the semispherical three-dimensional microstructure with a contact plane in the sorption is rapidly increased, and the sorption force is subsequently increased, so that the sorption is more effect; in desorption, the area of a separation angle and the contact plane is rapidly decreased, and the sorption force is rapidly decreased, so that the desorption process becomes relatively easier, as a result, the alternative operation of sorption and non-sorption can be rapidly accomplished, and requirements of the bionic wet-sucking wall-climbing robot on sorption and non-sorption are met; and in addition, a great number of ejected liquid flow paths which pass through the semispherical microstructure are beneficial for the secretion and discharge of grume, so that the sorption force is effectively increased. The foot pad is simple in structure, and main parts of the foot pad are manufactured in a silicon rubber casting and are easy to machine.

Detailed description of the invention
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing illustrated embodiment, the present invention is further illustrated.
As shown in Figure 1, have that hemispherical microstructure biomimetic wet-sucking foot pad mainly to comprise at the bottom of sufficient brace 1, foot pad microstructure 2, hydrojet fluid channel 4.Foot pad integral structure is formed by silaatic unit-cast unit, concrete steps are as follows: adopt metal LIGA technique or non-traditional machining method to prepare fine casting die, silaatic liquid glue and curing agent are mixed according to a certain percentage, and in vacuum drying oven, make it be full of casting die, be heated to a little more than room temperature, and keep a period of time, after solidification is peeled off, obtain the silaatic foot pad with microstructure.Be arranged on climbing robot with screw by the through hole 3 in foot pad planar substrates 1.
As shown in Figure 1, described foot pad micro structure array is formed by several hemispherical microstructure 2 linear arraies, and array direction is all parallel to 1 surface at the bottom of sufficient brace, and the centre of sphere of all hemispherical microstructures 2 is all arranged in the upper surface of at the bottom of sufficient brace 1.Absorption and desorption process are as shown in Figure 2, when adsorbing with contact surface, under the effect of precompressed compression, touch the top of hemispherical microstructure, waist and root successively, what bring is that area of contact expands rapidly thereupon, again because wet suction and real contact area are directly proportional, so corresponding wet suction also increases rapidly.Desorption process is contrary with adsorption process, reduces, so just there is angle of departure θ from the root of hemispherical microstructure to top contact area.Therefore very little separating force is only needed just can to complete desorption process rapidly.Make biomimetic wet-sucking foot pad not only have stronger adsorption power, but also there is good desorption mechanism.
As shown in Figure 1, the diameter of the hemispherical microstructure of described foot pad is all less than 100 μm, in limited foot pad surface, therefore increase effectively the number of microstructure.Now, when climbing robot foot pad is creeped at hydraulically rough surface, obviously can increase the real contact area of sufficient cushion material and hydraulically rough surface, thus greatly increase wet suction.
Hydrojet fluid channel 4 is as described in fig. 3 and fig. 4 for running through hemispherical microstructure 2 and the straight hole of through liquid storage groove 5, and its axis is by the centre of sphere of hemispherical microstructure 2 and perpendicular to sufficient brace bottom surface.Wet suction be formed at foot pad and wall between liquid bridge, when liquid thickness is less, liquid arrange speed faster time, wet suction also increases thereupon.On the one hand in order to accelerating liquid arranges speed in the present invention, the quantity of hydrojet fluid channel is identical with the quantity of hemispherical microstructure 2; On the other hand in order to obtain the less liquid bridge film of thickness, the diameter of fluid channel is less than 20 μm usually.
The present invention has following characteristics: the hemispherical three-dimensional microstructures on foot pad contributes to absorption and desorption, in adsorption process, contact surface increases rapidly, wet suction also increases thereupon, during desorption, contact surface is then quick reduction, owing to being sectional area difference, there is the angle of departure, desorption can become and be more prone to; Foot pad microstructure on there is hydrojet fluid channel, for mucus secretion with arrange, two ends attachment face is then smooth, rational in infrastructure, economical; This sufficient mat structure is simple, and adopt metal die casting to form, there is hemispherical micro-hole on casting die surface, convenient and swift.
