Referring to fig. 3 and 4, in one possible implementation, the rotation portion 211 is annular or cylindrical, a through hole or a blind hole is formed in the second base 220, a rotation cavity 221 is formed by a space surrounded by inner side walls of the through hole or the blind hole, a sliding groove 240 is formed in an outer circumferential surface of the rotation portion 211, an extending direction of the sliding groove 240 is the same as a rotation direction of the rotation portion 211, a connection hole 250 is formed in an inner side wall of the rotation cavity 221, an axis of the connection hole 250 is perpendicular to an axis of the rotation cavity 221, and the connection hole 250 is a through hole, that is, one end of the connection hole 250 is located on an outer side wall of the second base 220, the other end of the connection hole 250 is located on an inner side wall of the rotation cavity 221, the connection hole 250 is opposite to the sliding groove 240, the sliding member 231 is inserted into the connection hole 250 through one end of the connection hole 250 until the sliding, so that the slide member 231 maintains the current position (i.e., the position of abutting against the slide groove 240), thereby connecting the first base 210 and the second base 220. When the positions of the first base 210 and the second base 220 need to be adjusted to enable the first base 210 to rotate relative to the second base 220, the first base 210 is directly rotated, and the sliding piece 231 slides along the extending direction of the sliding groove 240, so that the rotating portion 211 rotates relative to the rotating cavity 221. Wherein, the cross section of the sliding chute 240 is circular arc. That is, the cross section of the slide groove 240 perpendicular to the rotation direction of the rotation portion 211 is circular arc.
Referring to fig. 5 and 6, in another possible implementation, the rotation part 211 may be a ring shape, a through hole is formed in the second base 220, a space surrounded by inner sidewalls of the through hole forms a rotation cavity 221, a connection hole 250 is formed in an outer circumferential surface of the rotation part 211, the connection hole 250 penetrates through inner and outer circumferences of the rotation part 211, and an axis of the connection hole 250 is perpendicular to an axis of the rotation part 211. A slide groove 240 is provided in the inner wall of the rotation chamber 221, and the slide groove 240 extends in the same direction as the rotation direction of the rotation portion 211. The connecting hole 250 is opposed to the sliding groove 240, and the sliding member 231 is inserted into the connecting hole 250 through one end of the connecting hole 250 until the sliding member 231 passes through the connecting hole 250 and abuts against the sliding groove 240, at this time, the sliding member 231 is fixed by the fixing member 232 so that the sliding member 231 maintains the current position (i.e., the position abutting against the sliding groove 240) to connect the first base 210 and the second base 220. When the positions of the first base 210 and the second base 220 need to be adjusted to enable the first base 210 to rotate relative to the second base 220, the first base 210 is directly rotated, and the sliding piece 231 slides along the extending direction of the sliding groove 240, so that the rotating portion 211 rotates relative to the rotating cavity 221.
To prevent the turnarounds 211 from wobbling when rotating relative to the turnarounds 221, in some embodiments, the outer sidewalls of the turnarounds 211 abut the inner sidewalls of the turnarounds 221.
In order to stably connect the first base 210 and the second base 220, two or more connecting assemblies 230 and two or more connecting holes 250 may be provided, and the connecting holes 250 correspond to the connecting assemblies 230 one by one, that is, one sliding member 231 is provided in one connecting hole 250, and each sliding member 231 is fixed by one fixing member 232.

The sliding member 231 is inserted into the connection hole 250, and the sliding member 231 is moved along the connection hole 250 to abut against the sliding groove 240, and the sliding member 231 is fixed by the fixing member 232 to keep the sliding member 231 fixed at the current position, thereby achieving the connection of the first base 210 and the second base 220. The sliding member 231 moves along the extending direction of the sliding slot 240, so that the revolving portion 211 rotates around the axis of the revolving cavity 221, so that the palm connected with the bionic wrist 200 rotates, and a user can adjust the bionic hand 100 according to the requirement of comfort, thereby being convenient to use.
Referring to fig. 3 to 6, the fixing member 232 is detachably coupled in the coupling hole 250. When it is necessary to detach the first base 210 and the second base 220, the fixing member 232 is detached from the connecting hole 250, so that the sliding member 231 can move along the connecting hole 250 toward the side away from the sliding slot 240 to disengage the sliding member 231 from the sliding slot 240. Thus, the turning part 211 can be pulled out from the turning cavity 221 to detach the first base 210 and the second base 220.
To facilitate removal of the fixing member 232 from the connecting hole 250, the fixing member 232 is optionally a jackscrew, and the connecting hole 250 has an internal thread matching the jackscrew. Illustratively, the jack screw may be rotated clockwise to abut the slider 231 between the sliding slot 240 and the jack screw, and the current position of the slider 231 is maintained to fix the first substrate 210 and the second substrate 220. When the first base 210 and the second base 220 need to be detached, the jackscrew is rotated counterclockwise to separate the sliding member 231 from the state of abutting against the sliding groove 240 and withdraw from the sliding groove 240, and at this time, the rotating portion 211 is pulled out from the rotating cavity 221 to detach the first base 210 and the second base 220. When the jackscrew is rotated, the sliding part 231 only needs to exit the sliding groove 240, and the jackscrew does not need to be rotated out of the connecting hole 250, so that the operation time is saved for disassembling the first base body 210 and the second base body 220, and the operation is convenient.
In the present application, in order to facilitate the sliding member 231 to exit the sliding slot 240, the sliding member 231 may be connected to the fixing member 232, and the sliding member 231 may move along with the fixing member 232 when the fixing member 232 is removed from the connecting hole 250.
In some embodiments, the connection assembly 230 further includes an elastic member 233, the elastic member 233 is located in the connection hole 250, and the elastic member 250 abuts between the fixing member 232 and the sliding member 231. The elastic member 233 may be a spring, a sleeve with elasticity, or a cylinder with elasticity. The elastic member 233 is deformed by the pressure of the fixing member 232, and the sliding member 231 is pressed by the elastic member 233, so that the sliding member 231 is held in contact with the chute 240. The damping function is performed during the rotation of the first base 210 relative to the second base 220, that is, the elastic member 233 is contracted at this time, so that the first base 210 can smoothly rotate. The pressure of the elastic member 233 can fix the first base 210 and the second base 220, that is, after the first base 210 rotates relative to the second base 220 by an angle, the elastic member 233 presses the sliding member 231, so that the first base 210 maintains the current position of the second base 220. At the same time, the elastic member 233 also applies pressure to the fixing member 232, whereby the fixing member 232 can be prevented from loosening.
