Description

A kind of energy recovery type is wireless soft robot and movement technique
Technical field
The present invention relates to robot fields, and in particular to a kind of energy recovery type is wireless soft robot and movement technique.
Background technique
Traditional robot is manufactured using metals such as steels mostly, usually there is extra high intensity and hardness, passes through conjunction Very quick movement velocity and extremely fine kinematic accuracy may be implemented in the design of reason.Traditional robot is daily at us In effect it is extremely important, realize and much rely solely on the function that the mankind oneself are difficult to realize, but traditional robot also has It is difficult to overcome for many disadvantages are current, such as excessively high intensity and hardness are easy to cause to damage to operation object, robot The production of itself has been related to control, the precision machining processes that the complex technologies such as sensing become one, simultaneously because will Control, sensing etc. are partially integrated into together, and traditional robot is mostly very heavy and huge, are greatly limited them in this way and are transported Flowing mode and motion range.In addition to this, traditional robot relies primarily on gear, the rotation or movement of the drive mechanisms such as connecting rod Realize its movement, the functions such as continuous modification, in this kind of drive, the energy for driving it to move is constantly in unidirectional dissipation State drives its strain energy of distortion that can not be transferred to and deforms next time, or even deforms next time and additional energy is also needed Deformation before counteracting, this also increases energy required for maintaining robot motion to a certain extent.
Soft robot has complex environment extremely excellent adaptability, Ke Yizhu due to the inherent characteristic of material The dynamic variation for adapting to external environment, and moved in extremely complicated environment, therefore can be used for topographic(al) reconnaissance, Post disaster relief etc. is appointed Business.And due to the flexible characteristic of robot itself, soft robot significantly reduces the possibility for operation object damage Property, this makes it in medical treatment, and nurse etc. has irreplaceable role.Existing soft robot mostly uses fluid to drive greatly Dynamic, modes, these modes such as shape-memory polymer deformation and the deformation of imitative mammal tendon require greatly extremely harsh Drive condition and more huge driving equipment and it can only realize more slow motor behavior, and these are insufficient significantly Application of the soft robot of limitation in real life.
Summary of the invention
In order to improve to the existing some shortcoming and defect of robot, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of energy Reclaiming type is wireless soft robot and movement technique, the soft robot are not required to huge driving equipment, may be implemented quickly to move And energy regenerating.The soft robot has a good landform adaptability, and load capacity is big, it can be achieved that wireless control, can It is moved along particular path, small in size, light-weight, simple for structure, the features such as low energy consumption.And its Production Time is short, material cost Low, manufacture craft is simple.
