The motion segment 140 is configured to bend when the pneumatic mechanism 110 absorbs gas within the motion cavity 141, and the motion segment 140 is also configured to straighten when the pneumatic mechanism 110 inflates the motion cavity 141. In this embodiment, when the pneumatic mechanism 110 absorbs the air in the moving cavity 141, the moving section 140 is bent to a side far away from the ground by taking the end of the guiding section 130 far away from the moving section 140 as a fulcrum, and at this time, the end of the moving section 140 far away from the guiding section 130 moves forward until the whole soft moving member 120 forms an arch; when the pneumatic mechanism 110 inflates the movement cavity 141, the movement section 140 is straightened and deformed by taking the end of the movement section 140 away from the guide section 130 as a fulcrum, and at the moment, the end of the guide section 130 away from the movement section 140 moves forwards until the whole soft moving piece 120 is attached to the ground.

When it is necessary to control the soft body mover 120 to turn in the second direction, the switch 157 communicates the air outlet with the second air supply pipe 155 to inflate the second air bag 133, communicates the air suction port with the first air supply pipe 153 to absorb the air in the first air bag 131, and the inflation degree of the second air bag 133 is greater than that of the first air bag 131, and the guide section 130 is bent in the second direction. When the software moving member 120 needs to be controlled to perform linear movement, if more air is in the first air bag 131 than in the second air bag 133, the switcher 157 communicates the air outlet with the second air supply pipe 155 to inflate the second air bag 133, communicates the air suction port with the first air supply pipe 153 to absorb the air in the first air bag 131 until the inflation degree of the first air bag 131 and the second air bag 133 is the same; if the gas in the second airbag 133 is greater than the gas in the first airbag 131, the switch 157 communicates the gas outlet with the first gas supply pipe 153 to inflate the first airbag 131, communicates the gas inlet with the second gas supply pipe 155 to absorb the gas in the second airbag 133 until the degree of inflation of the first airbag 131 and the second airbag 133 is the same.
