Description

Flexible driving hip joint for semi-passive biped robot
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of robots, and particularly relates to a flexible driving hip joint for a semi-passive biped robot.
Background
The walking mode of the biped walking robot is closer to that of human, and the biped walking robot can adapt to the living environment of human (such as stairs in life) quickly, so that the biped walking robot can serve human better. Therefore, research work on the biped walking robot is widely performed worldwide.
In recent years, with the development of the principle of passive walking, more and more trainees have begun to develop semi-passive biped robots based on the principle, which have the characteristics of energy saving, natural walking, simple structure, and the like. Worldwide, research institutions such as the Cornell University (Cornell University) in the united states, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), Delft University of Technology (Technology) in the netherlands develop series of semi-passive biped robots, and all of the robots can achieve ideal walking.
However, analysis finds that an angular bisector mechanism (which reduces the degree of freedom of the whole machine to reduce the difficulty of control and simultaneously ensures that the trunk is constantly kept on an angular bisector of a lower limb) used by the existing semi-passive biped robot generally has the problems of too complex structure and poor working reliability, and the existing under-actuated biped robot mostly adopts rigid drive (such as direct drive by using a motor at a joint), so that the flexibility of transmission and motion of the robot is difficult to ensure in motion, larger rigid impact cannot be effectively coped with, the stability of walking is seriously influenced, and meanwhile, the rigid drive can also inhibit the natural mechanical characteristics of the joint, thereby influencing the walking naturalness of the robot. In recent years, researchers in this field have tried to drive an underactuated biped robot by using a flexible driving method of an artificial muscle (e.g., a pneumatic artificial muscle) due to various defects of a rigid driving method, but the flexible driving method has a large volume, a high weight and a low driving efficiency, and a flexible driving method using a high-efficiency motor in combination with a spring may be a preferable flexible driving method.
In view of the current research situation of the semi-passive biped robot, there is an urgent need for a flexible driving hip joint for the semi-passive biped robot, which integrates an angular bisector mechanism with simple structure and good reliability and high-efficiency, light and flexible driving.
