Description

Technical Field
The invention relates to a bionic machine, in particular to a bionic manipulator without shaking.
Background
The main fields of bionic mechanical research are biomechanics, control bodies and robots. Biomechanics study the mechanical phenomena and laws of life, including living body mechanics, living body hydromechanics, and body mechanics. The control body and the robot are engineering technical systems built based on knowledge learned from living beings.
According to statistics, the hand is one of the most easily damaged human organs, and once damaged, the treatment difficulty is very high due to criss-cross of internal nerves, blood vessels and small muscles, and the function recovery after treatment is not ideal. In addition, not only the motor function of the hand itself is affected by the damage of the hand itself, but also the brain, spine, arm, etc. are damaged, and the motor function of the hand is lost without affecting the body of the hand.
The bionic hand is a key functional part of the existing bionic robot which is increasingly developed, the existing bionic hand mainly comprises the following two types, the first type is relatively flexible in function, but obviously mechanized in appearance, the bionic hand mainly comprises a rigid connecting rod and a hinge, and the linkage between finger joints is realized through a connecting rod transmission or a wire pulling mode. The bionic hand has the advantages that all movable joints of a human hand can be detached, so that more degrees of freedom are realized. The output force of the bionic hand using the connecting rod transmission mode is larger, but the rigidity of the connecting rod mechanism is large, the flexibility is low, the weight is large, and the difference between the appearance and the appearance of a natural hand is larger. The pull-cord type bionic hand has high flexibility, but the output finger force is small, and the pull cord is easy to break, so that functional failure is easy to occur. The second type is a silica gel hand with the appearance color and texture close to the height of a human hand, and the hand is made by reverse molding of a real human hand and then pouring silica gel. However, such hands have only a decorative function and no substantial movement function.

When the force output line is pressed against the guide shaft, the force output line turns from the pressed guide shaft, and the pulled mechanism is also driven to bend.
In a first aspect, the present invention aims to provide a lead shaft position and spring stiffness optimization method for achieving harmonious biological force transmission of mechanism motion, achieving natural motion conforming to biomechanics, and avoiding actions violating natural biological motion.
The lead shaft position optimization method can be used for hands and/or arms losing motion functions, mechanical arms reconstructed by connecting rods and springs, mechanical arms and the like. These structures are collectively referred to herein as a towed mechanism. The towed mechanism is virtualized as a link model with links and elastic hinges. For the manipulator and the mechanical arm, the connecting rod of the manipulator and the mechanical arm is used as a connecting rod, and the joint of the manipulator and the mechanical arm is an elastic hinge. For the hands and arms of people who lose the movement function, the hand bones are used as connecting rods, and joints are used as elastic hinges.
Preferably, a natural limb movement database is obtained, a movement model is established for the natural limb, in the movement model of the natural limb, a bone is used as a connecting rod, a joint is used as an elastic hinge, a tendon is used as a force output line, parameters of each joint comprise tendon length l and joint stiffness, and the relation l between the natural limb tendon movement amount delta l and the joint angle theta is obtained by utilizing positive and negative kinematics (theta is f) (theta isi) (ii) a Using a PCA algorithm to obtain the dimension direction of the first principal component of the natural limb, the relation between the tendon movement amount delta l and the joint angle theta in the dimension direction, and the proportional relation between a plurality of joint angles when a plurality of joints exist;
establishing a motion model of a towed structure, and constraining the freedom of motion of the motion model in the dimension direction of a first principal component, wherein the motion model comprises connecting rods, elastic hinges between adjacent connecting rods and force output lines, the parameters of each elastic hinge comprise the positions of two insertion points and the rigidity of a spring, and the length of the force output line between the two insertion points represents the length of a tendon;
taking the spring stiffness and the tendon length as input, taking the angle of each joint as output, taking the minimum difference between the relationship between the tendon movement amount delta l and the joint angle theta in the movement model and the relationship between the tendon movement amount delta l and the joint angle theta in the natural limb as a target, continuously adjusting the position of an insertion point and the spring stiffness, and carrying out iterative calculation until the target is achieved; and outputting the position of the insertion point and the spring stiffness, and finishing the optimization of the position of the lead shaft and the spring stiffness.
The core of the method is that each joint is virtualized into two insertion points and a rigidity value of the joint; the insertion point is specifically indicative of the tendon length.
Further, the positive and negative kinematics model obtains the relationship between the tendon exercise amount Δ l and the joint angle θ, and the positive kinematics model is as follows:

wherein J represents a rotation transformation matrix,

The relationship between the exercise amount of the tendon and the joint angle is obtained.
Further, when there are a plurality of joints, the method for acquiring the proportional relation between the angles of the plurality of joints is as follows: a curve graph is established according to the relation between the tendon exercise amount delta l and the joint angle theta, the tendon length l is used as a horizontal coordinate, the angle value is used as a vertical coordinate, and each joint angle has a curve of which the joint angle changes according to the tendon length under the coordinate system;

The more the proportional relation between the angle of the joint and the angle of the reference joint approaches the angle proportional relation obtained by PCA analysis, the more the motion model approaches the motion of the natural limb. If the proportional relation between the angle of the joint and the angle of the reference joint is farther from the angular proportional relation obtained by the PCA analysis, the relative position of the insertion point is adjusted with the result obtained by approximating the PAC principal component analysis as the target.
Preferably, the traction mechanism is a finger, and the finger motion model is established for the finger, the finger including a proximal knuckle-metacarpal joint MCP, a proximal knuckle-middle knuckle joint PIP and a middle knuckle-distal knuckle joint DIP, each joint having a respective two insertion points.
The finger or the bionic manipulator is simplified into a finger connecting rod model, bones (such as phalanges, hand bones, phalanges models and the like) are used as connecting rods in the connecting rod model, and joints between adjacent bones are elastic hinges. The fingers and the handles can be self-heating fingers and arms which lose the motion function in the human body, and can also be artificial limbs and artificial hands reconstructed by using mechanical structures.
When the device is applied to a finger structure of a manipulator, the rigidity W is preferably the rigidity of a torsion spring, and the rigidity serves as a variable quantity and serves as a variable input value together with the insertion point position.
Patients who lose the function of finger movement, such as stroke patients, have the finger movement no longer controlled by the brain, the muscle stiffness at the finger joints, and the muscle stiffness degree at different joints of the same finger of the same patient are different, so when optimizing the wire axis insertion point of the glove, the joint stiffness W in the biomechanical model is different.
When applied to the finger structure of a human hand with lost motion function, the stiffness W is the actual stiffness of the finger joints as a preferred scheme; stiffness W is input as a fixed value and only the insertion point position is input as a variable input value. Before the optimization calculation, the stiffness of each finger of the patient is measured. The rigidity of the joints of the human hand can be obtained by giving known force, measuring the angle of the joints, calculating the rigidity W of the joints, and adopting the prior art to calculate the rigidity by the known force and the angle.
Further, when applied to rehabilitation of a human hand with lost exercise function, fingers usually lose the ability to actively stretch in addition to the ability to actively grip, and therefore, a mechanism for stretching the fingers is further provided in the rehabilitation tool, and when the elastic member is used as the mechanism for stretching the fingers, the joint stiffness is the joint equivalent stiffness combined with the action of the elastic member when the force output line pulls the fingers to grip. That is, when the elastic member is in the operating state, the finger joint rigidity test is performed.

When the motor outputs torque, the wire segments are mutually wound to form a stranded wire, the length of the wire segments is shortened, so that pulling force is formed on finger tips, relative motion occurs between finger joints, finger bending is achieved, and grabbing motion of a hand is achieved. In the finger structure, except for the phalanges, the hinge and the spring, the finger structure does not need to be provided with
The insertion point and the stiffness of the spring are determined by the optimization method described above, driving the motor as a driver in the direction of the first principal component obtained by PCA analysis. The PCA analysis method is used for carrying out dimension analysis on the movement of the natural limb, and then, when the bionic mechanical design is carried out, a driver is arranged according to the main component direction obtained by the PCA analysis method. The more actuators, the more comprehensive the natural limb movement is restored.
Each finger is provided with a wire slot for accommodating a force output wire, a wire guide shaft is arranged along the wire slot, and two ends of the wire guide shaft are respectively fixed with the wire slots; the force output line passes through the space between the wire guide shaft and the wire groove.
According to the physiological structure of a human hand, the kinematics of fingers is simplified into a link mechanism driven by a force output line, finger bones are regarded as rigid connecting rods, ligaments and tendons connecting the finger bones are regarded as rigid elastic hinges, and the positions of a series of lead shaft insertion points and the positions of fixing points of the force output line determine how the force output line drives the fingers to move. Therefore, modeling of the force output line and the wire axis is required to clarify the relationship between the length of the force output line and the state of finger motion.
The position of the wire shaft is determined after optimized calculation of the insertion point and the rigidity, and the position is stable, so that after the manipulator is manufactured, the bending degree of fingers can be controlled by calculating the length of the force output line, and the accurate control of finger bending and hand grasping actions is realized.
The wire shaft comprises a mandrel and a wear-resistant sleeve, and the wear-resistant sleeve is sleeved outside the mandrel. The mandrel is fixed with the knuckle, and the wear-resistant sleeve is tightly matched with the mandrel. The wear-resisting sleeve reduces the frictional force that the power output line received to play the lubrication action to the power output line, minimize the wearing and tearing of power output line, fracture, the life of extension power output line.
The joint comprises a pair of insertion points and a torsion spring sleeved in the pin shaft. The torsion spring comprises a spiral spring part and support legs, two ends of each support leg extend outwards, and each support leg is fixed to the corresponding knuckle respectively. The rigidity of the torsion spring is used as the rigidity of the joint, and the torsion spring is convenient to install.
And/or a first reed is arranged at the joint between the proximal knuckle and the palm, a second reed is arranged at the joint between the proximal knuckle and the middle knuckle, and a third reed is arranged at the joint between the middle knuckle and the distal knuckle; and a sensor is arranged on each reed. The method and the structure for collecting the joint angle by the reed and the sensor adopt the prior art.
The output shaft of the motor is provided with a wire passing hole, and the force output wire is a rope ring passing through the wire passing hole. One end of the rope ring combined with the output shaft of the motor is used as a near end, the farthest end of the rope ring is fixed with the far knuckle, when the motor outputs torque, the rope ring forms a twisted pair, and the length of the force output line is changed.
The force output line penetrates through the rope passing hole, two ends of the rope are combined to enable the force output line to form a closed loop, and the two ends of the rope are fixed on the far knuckle.
The wire passing hole is a ring fixed on the output shaft of the motor or a through hole arranged on the output shaft of the motor.
The force output line is fixed on the far knuckle through the pressing piece; or, a far end wire shaft is arranged on the far finger joint, and the rope is looped around the far end wire shaft. The force output line bears the tensile force in the form of the twisted pair, the tensile deformation directly borne by the rope ring is small, the rope ring is not easy to break, and the output force is large.
The far knuckle, the middle knuckle and the near knuckle are respectively composed of respective frameworks and flexible pads, the adjacent frameworks are connected through elastic hinges, the wire grooves are formed in the frameworks, the flexible pads cover the frameworks, and the wire grooves are covered by the flexible pads. The skeleton is equivalent to a finger bone, and the flexible pad is equivalent to a muscle on a finger. The flexible pad covers the wire casing, prevents that the foreign matter from getting into the wire casing and causing the influence to the power output line.
The force output line is provided with lubricating oil, lubricating grease, colloid, a protective film and a protective layer. The force output line is coated with a little oil, so that the toughness of the force output line can be enhanced, and the service life is prolonged.
The rope loop formed after the force output line passes through the wire passing hole is arranged at the position close to the output shaft of the motor, and the line segments of the rope loop are bundled together. For example, after the force output line passes through the wire passing hole, the line sections on the two sides of the wire passing hole are knotted. Therefore, when the motor outputs torque, the starting points of winding of the line segments are the same every time, the influence of the natural separation tendency of the line segments on the two sides of the line passing hole on torque transmission is avoided, the effective utilization rate of the torque of the motor is improved, and the control of the length of the force output line by controlling the motor is further improved.
In the experimental process, the situation that the finger shakes when the twisted wire is used as a force output wire is found.
A third aspect of the present invention is directed to a structure for preventing finger shake for a bionic manipulator using a force output line in the form of a twisted wire.
Preferably, the path of the force output wires is provided with a splitter, at which the segments around which the force output wires are wound are separated. The torque output by the motor enables the line segments of the force output lines to be wound together, further enables the length of the force output lines to be changed, enables the distance between the far knuckle and the palm to be changed, and therefore the fingers are bent. The winding of the line segments can lead to the shaking of fingers during movement, which is not beneficial to grasping.
The beam splitting piece is arranged at the proximal knuckle; or the beam splitting piece is arranged on the palm, each finger is provided with the respective beam splitting piece, and the beam splitting pieces are rigid pieces. After tests, the beam splitting piece is arranged, the beam splitting piece enables the motor torque to act on the section from the beam splitting piece to the motor, the beam splitting piece interrupts the motor torque to enable the active winding trend of the line section, the influence of the torque wound by the line section on the middle knuckle and the far knuckle is isolated, and finger shaking is avoided. The rigid part referred to herein means a rigid part which is stable in shape and is not easily deformed; and not an absolute stiffness or hardness.
Each finger is provided with a wire groove for containing a force output wire, the beam splitting piece is positioned in the wire groove close to the knuckle, and a gap is formed between the beam splitting piece and the wall of the wire groove. The gap allows the force output line to pass through, the line segment of the force output line is separated by the beam splitting piece, then the stranded wire is continuously formed at the far end of the beam splitting piece in a natural winding mode, the stress distribution of the naturally wound stranded wire is natural, and fingers cannot shake due to the torque output by the motor.
The splitter is a streamlined body partition centered with the axial centerline of the trunking. The bundling element can separate the wound wire sections without blocking the force transmission.
The far end and the near end of the beam splitting component are respectively smooth curved surfaces. The proximal and distal ends of the splitter are both domes. The smooth curved surface can not only smoothly guide the force output line, but also avoid mutual cutting between the beam splitting piece and the force output line, and guarantee the service life of the force output line.
The wire groove of the proximal knuckle is internally provided with two wire guide shafts, and the beam splitting piece is positioned between the two wire guide shafts. The distal knuckles are of sufficient length that the beam splitter is positioned between the two guide shafts rather than in the palm space. In addition, the transmission distance of the force output line to the torque is also required, and if the bundling piece is placed in the palm, the force output line affected by the torque of the motor is short, so that the problem that the force output line is easily twisted and broken is caused. The bundling piece is placed in the proximal knuckle, the force output line is suitable for the length of the torque of the motor, the torque of the motor can be effectively transmitted, and the problem of twisting and breaking of the force output line is solved.
The beam splitter is equidistant from both guide axes, or the beam splitter is near the proximal guide axis. In this way, the beam splitter has minimal effect on torque transmission and no finger wobble.
The proximal knuckle is integral with a beam splitter that is higher than the guide axis. The height of the splitter needs to be high enough so that the wire guide shaft confines the force output wires to a region below the splitter to avoid the force output wires from disengaging the splitter.
In a fourth aspect of the present invention, it is an object to provide a highly integrated bionic manipulator capable of integrating all drive motors in a palm.
As a preferred scheme, the palm comprises a back skeleton and a palm skeleton, the back skeleton and the palm skeleton form an accommodating cavity, a finger driving motor group is arranged in the accommodating cavity, the finger driving motor group comprises an index finger motor, a middle finger motor, a ring finger motor and a little finger motor, and output shafts of the index finger motor, the middle finger motor, the ring finger motor and the little finger motor are respectively aligned to the corresponding fingers; the force output line is fixed with an output shaft of the finger driving motor; one guide wire shaft of the proximal knuckle-metacarpal joint is positioned in the proximal knuckle, and the other guide wire shaft is positioned in the palm.
As can be seen from the anatomical structure of the human metacarpal bones, 5 metacarpal bones are arranged in the palm of the human hand, each metacarpal bone is connected with the corresponding finger bone to form a line hinged through a joint, and the metacarpal bones are connected with the proximal phalanx through the joints. The forefinger motor, the middle finger motor, the ring finger motor and the little finger motor are arranged relative to respective fingers according to the direction of a metacarpal bone, namely in the palm model, the finger driving motor is a miniature low-speed gear motor.
The fixing part of the motor output shaft and the force output line is used as a wire guide shaft of the proximal knuckle-metacarpal joint positioned in the palm. Therefore, after the position of the wire axis in the palm is determined through optimization calculation, the position of the finger driving motor is also determined. The scheme has the advantages that the threading of the force output wire is simple, but the requirement on the positioning precision of the finger driving motor is high.
Alternatively, the guide wire shaft of the proximal knuckle-metacarpal joint located in the palm is located between the finger drive motor and the proximal knuckle-metacarpal joint. That is, the position of the finger driving motor is irrelevant to the wire guide shaft of the proximal knuckle-metacarpal joint, and only the force output wire passes through the wire guide shaft, so that the requirement on the positioning precision of the finger driving motor is reduced.
The containing cavity is provided with an index finger motor mounting position, a middle finger motor mounting position, a ring finger motor mounting position and a little finger motor mounting position, each motor mounting position is fixedly corresponding to a finger driving motor, and each motor mounting position is provided with a through hole which allows a motor output shaft to pass through and can rotate freely. Each motor installation position comprises a pair of side plates and a far-end baffle, the through holes are formed in the far-end baffles, and the near ends of the motor installation positions are open.
The forefinger motor, the middle finger motor, the ring finger motor and the little finger motor are respectively provided with a limiting assembly, and when the motors are installed at the motor installation positions, the limiting assemblies limit the motors to rotate relative to the motor installation positions. For example, the motor and the motor mounting position are fixed by means of fasteners, bonding and the like, and the fasteners and the bonding structure can also be used as a limiting component. The forefinger motor, the middle finger motor, the ring finger motor and the little finger motor are provided with speed reducing mechanisms, and the base frame of the speed reducing mechanisms is provided with a stop surface matched with the motor mounting positions. For example, reduction gears is gear reducer, and gear reducer's bed frame is cuboid or square, and gear reducer and finger driving motor combination together, put into motor installation position, and the side of gear reducer's bed frame is laminated with the curb plate of motor installation position respectively, and the relative motor installation position rotation of restriction finger driving motor. The near end of the motor installation position is set to be open, so that the motor can be conveniently placed into the motor installation position.
The palm needs to be hinged with the index finger, the middle finger, the ring finger and the little finger, so the palm needs to be provided with connecting parts with the index finger, the middle finger, the ring finger and the little finger. The invention provides the following structural scheme for connecting palms and fingers:
the first structural scheme for connecting the palm and the fingers is as follows: the back skeleton is provided with a connecting part hinged with the fingers, and the palm skeleton is provided with finger grooves corresponding to the connecting part; and a skeleton wire shaft of the force output line is arranged on the palm skeleton, and the skeleton wire shaft is positioned between the finger driving motor and the corresponding finger. The finger grooves on the palm skeleton provide space for finger movement, limit positions of finger movement are limited by the finger grooves on the palm skeleton, and excessive movement of fingers which does not accord with biological rules is prevented.
The connecting parts are arranged at the far end of the back skeleton, and a far end plate is arranged between the adjacent connecting parts and is flush with the edge of the far end of the back skeleton; the finger grooves are formed in the far end of the palm skeleton, the separating parts are arranged between the adjacent finger grooves, and when the back skeleton and the palm skeleton are combined, the separating parts and the far end plate separate the finger grooves.
All the motor mounting positions are arranged on the hand back framework, and the palm framework and the hand back framework are fixed through screws; countersunk screw holes are formed in the palm skeleton, screw hole columns are arranged in the back skeleton, and the screw hole columns correspond to the countersunk screw holes one to one. The structure is matched with a scheme that the position of a finger driving motor is irrelevant to a wire guide shaft of a proximal knuckle-metacarpal joint, both a back skeleton and a palm skeleton are provided with grooves inwards from edges to provide a moving space for fingers, the groove forming mode is simple, and the outer surfaces of the palm skeleton and the palm skeleton are flat and attractive. However, the disadvantage is that the palm needs to be provided with a wire guide shaft of the force output wire, and when the threading of the force output wire is realized, the threading needs to be passed through the wire guide shaft on the palm, so that the threading is slightly complicated.
The second structure scheme for connecting the palm and the fingers is as follows: the scheme is used in combination with a scheme that a fixing part of the motor output shaft and the force output line is used as a wire guide shaft of the proximal knuckle-metacarpal joint positioned in the palm. The palm skeleton is provided with connecting blocks hinged with fingers, the connecting blocks are bumps extending far from the far end of the palm skeleton, a distance is reserved between the connecting blocks, the far end of each connecting block is provided with a hinge, and each connecting block is provided with a limiting surface; the palm skeleton is provided with wire holes, and each connecting block corresponds to one wire hole.
The far end of connecting block is articulated with the finger, and after the finger moved to the spacing face of contact, nearly knuckle can't move to the direction that is close to the palm again, and spacing face prevents that the finger from taking place the excessive motion, makes the motion of manipulator accord with ergonomic. The force output line is led out from the output shaft of the motor, passes through the wire guide hole and then passes through the wire guide shaft on the finger. The position of the wire passing hole and the position of the wire guide hole on the output shaft of the motor can also be used as a wire guide shaft and arranged in the optimized distribution scheme to calculate the optimal position so as to obtain the finger control with high bionics degree and according with biomechanics and biological motion forms. The connecting blocks and the corresponding finger driving motors form a metacarpal model.
The palm skeleton forms the chamber that holds finger driving motor clan, and the back of the hand skeleton is the apron, and the back of palm skeleton is equipped with the chamber opening that holds that matches with the back of the hand skeleton, is the step between connecting block and the palm skeleton, and the wire guide sets up on the step. That is, the connecting block is lower than the palm surface; when the proximal knuckle contacts the limit surface, a gap is still reserved between the proximal knuckle and the palm skeleton, and a space is reserved for the cushion of the proximal knuckle.
The limiting surface is an inclined surface, and the far end of the limiting surface is closer to the back of the hand than the near end. When the fingers move to contact with the limiting surface, the fingers slightly incline to conform to the movement of natural human fingers.
The far end of the proximal knuckle and the far end of the middle knuckle are respectively provided with a knuckle limiting surface, and the knuckle limiting surfaces are inclined surfaces with a far height and a near height. The height is lower near the back of the hand and higher near the palm. The purpose of the knuckle limiting surface is to enable the knuckle to be in a slightly inclined state when the knuckle is at the bending limit, and the knuckle accords with human engineering and biomechanics.

The optimization method aims to provide the optimization method of the position of the guide wire shaft A and the spring stiffness, which realizes the harmonious biological force transmission of the mechanism motion, realizes the natural motion according with the biomechanics and avoids the action violating the natural biological motion.
The method for optimizing the position of the guide wire axis A can be used for hands and/or arms which lose movement functions, mechanical arms and mechanical arms reconstructed by connecting rods and springs and the like. These structures are collectively referred to herein as a towed mechanism. The towed mechanism is virtualized as a link model with links and elastic hinges. For the manipulator and the mechanical arm, the connecting rod of the manipulator and the mechanical arm is used as a connecting rod, and the joint of the manipulator and the mechanical arm is an elastic hinge. For the hands and arms of people who lose the movement function, the hand bones are used as connecting rods, and joints are used as elastic hinges.
The specific scheme comprises the following steps: obtaining a natural limb movement database, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, building a movement model for the natural limb, wherein in the movement model for the natural limb, a bone is used as a connecting rod, a joint C is used as an elastic hinge, tendons are used as a force output line B, parameters of each joint comprise tendon length l and rigidity of the joint C, and a relation l ═ f (theta) (theta is obtained by positive and negative kinematics) between natural limb tendon movement amount delta l and joint angle thetai)。
Using the PCA algorithm, the dimension direction of the first principal component of the natural limb, and the relationship of the tendon movement amount Δ l to the joint C angle θ in the dimension direction, and the proportional relationship between the plurality of joint C angles when there are a plurality of joints C, are obtained. As shown in fig. 4, the PCA algorithm is an existing algorithm, and the analysis results of different PCA algorithms on the three principal component directions of the bionic mechanical motion are basically consistent. As shown in fig. 5, a discrete plot of the relationship between the angle of each joint C and the force output line B is obtained. FIG. 6 is a linear regression fit of the discrete points of FIG. 5 to a straight line.
Establishing a motion model of a towed structure, and constraining the freedom of motion of the motion model in the dimension direction of a first principal component, wherein the motion model comprises connecting rods, elastic hinges between adjacent connecting rods and force output lines B, the parameters of each elastic hinge comprise the positions of two insertion points and the rigidity of a spring 12, and the length of the force output line B between the two insertion points represents the length of a tendon;
taking the spring stiffness and the tendon length as input, taking the angle of each joint C as output, continuously adjusting the position of an insertion point and the spring stiffness by taking the minimum difference between the relationship between the tendon movement amount delta l and the joint C angle theta in a movement model and the relationship between the tendon movement amount delta l and the joint C angle theta in a natural limb as a target, and carrying out iterative calculation until the target is achieved; and (4) outputting the position of the insertion point and the spring stiffness, and finishing optimization of the position of the wire guide shaft A and the spring stiffness. As shown in fig. 1, the lead axes a are positionally fixed and the force output line B passes through all the lead axes a in sequence.
The core of the method is that each joint is virtualized into two insertion points and a rigidity value of the joint; the insertion point is specifically indicative of the tendon length.
The positive and inverse kinematics model obtains the relationship between the tendon exercise amount delta l and the joint angle theta, and the positive kinematics model is as follows:

wherein J represents a rotation transformation matrix,

The relationship between the exercise amount of the tendon and the joint angle is obtained.
When a plurality of joints C exist, the method for acquiring the proportional relation among the angles of the plurality of joints C comprises the following steps: a curve graph is established according to the relation between the tendon exercise amount delta l and the joint C angle theta, the tendon length l is used as a horizontal coordinate, the angle value is used as a vertical coordinate, and each joint angle has a curve of the joint C angle changing according to the tendon length under the coordinate system;
selecting a joint as a reference joint C, establishing a two-dimensional coordinate system with the angle of the reference joint as a horizontal coordinate and the angle value as a vertical coordinate, and obtaining a curve of each joint C relative to the reference coordinate, wherein the slope of the curve represents the proportional relation between the angle of the joint C and the angle of the reference joint C. The closer the proportional relation between the angle of the joint C and the angle of the reference joint C is to the angle proportional relation obtained by PCA analysis, the closer the motion model is to the motion of the natural limb. If the proportional relationship between the angle of the joint and the angle of the reference joint C is farther from the angular proportional relationship obtained by the PCA analysis, the relative position of the insertion point is adjusted with the result obtained by approximating the PAC principal component analysis as the target.
In some embodiments, the motion model is created for a finger in the case of a finger comprising a proximal knuckle-metacarpal joint MCP, a proximal knuckle-middle knuckle PIP and a middle knuckle-distal knuckle DIP, each having a respective two insertion points.

The finger or the bionic manipulator is simplified into a finger connecting rod model, bones (such as phalanges, hand bones, phalanges models and the like) are used as connecting rods in the connecting rod model, and joints between adjacent bones are elastic hinges. The fingers and the handles can be self-heating fingers and arms which lose the motion function in the human body, and can also be artificial limbs and artificial hands reconstructed by using mechanical structures.
In some embodiments, the stiffness W is the stiffness of a torsion spring as a variable amount, along with the insertion point location as a variable input value, when applied to the finger structure of the manipulator. As can be seen from fig. 7, the unit weight and force output performance of the benonic brand manipulator, the natural human hand, and the manipulator of the present invention are substantially on the same performance curve, and the force output performance is substantially consistent.
In some embodiments, a patient with lost finger motion, such as a stroke patient, has finger motion no longer controlled by the brain, has muscle stiffness at the finger joints, and has different levels of muscle stiffness at different joints on the same finger of the same patient, and thus has different joint stiffness W in the biomechanical model when optimizing the wire axis A insertion point of the glove.
When applied to a finger structure of a human hand that loses motor ability, the stiffness W is the actual stiffness of the finger joint; stiffness W is input as a fixed value and only the insertion point position is input as a variable input value. Before the optimization calculation, the stiffness of each finger of the patient is measured. The rigidity of the joints of the human hand can be obtained by measuring the angle of the joint C given known force, calculating the joint rigidity W, and adopting the prior art to calculate the rigidity through the known force and the angle.
When the rehabilitation tool is applied to rehabilitation of a human hand without motor functions, fingers usually lose the active gripping capacity and the active stretching capacity, so that the rehabilitation tool is also provided with a mechanism for stretching the fingers, and when the elastic members are used as the mechanism for stretching the fingers, the joint rigidity is equivalent to the joint rigidity of the joint C combined with the action of the elastic members when the force output line B pulls the fingers to grip. That is, when the elastic member is in the operating state, the finger joint rigidity test is performed.
In some embodiments, the towed mechanism is an arm, and the arm motion model includes an elbow joint; the elbow joint includes two insertion points and a joint stiffness.
The arm motion model comprises a shoulder joint, the shoulder joint is a universal joint, the motion direction of the shoulder joint is determined firstly, and if the motion direction of the shoulder joint is consistent with that of the elbow joint, the input values of the arm motion model comprise a pair of shoulder joint insertion points, shoulder joint rigidity, a pair of elbow joint insertion points and elbow joint rigidity.
Mechanical arm
The embodiment aims to provide a bionic manipulator which is close to a human hand in shape and structure, can realize natural gripping of the human hand and is high in gripping force.
As shown in fig. 8, a bionic manipulator has a palm, a thumb 1, an index finger 2, a middle finger 3, a ring finger 4, and a little finger 5. The index finger 2, the middle finger 3, the ring finger 4 and the little finger 5 are consistent in structure and respectively provided with a proximal knuckle J, a middle knuckle Z and a distal knuckle Y, and as shown in fig. 29, the proximal knuckle J is hinged with the palm; each joint has a respective pair of wire axes a and a spring located between the insertion points; each finger is provided with a respective driving motor R and a respective force output line B, each force output line B comprises at least two line segments which can be wound mutually, each force output line B is fixed with the wire axis A on the distal knuckle Y through the wire axis A and the distal end on the finger in sequence, and the other end of each line segment is fixed with the output end of the motor.
When the motor outputs torque, the wire segments are mutually wound to form a stranded wire, the length of the wire segments is shortened, so that pulling force is formed on finger tips, relative motion occurs between finger joints, finger bending is achieved, and grabbing motion of a hand is achieved. In the finger structure, except for the phalanges, the hinge and the spring, the finger structure does not need to be provided with
The insertion point and the stiffness of the spring are determined by the optimization method described above, driving the motor as a driver in the direction of the first principal component obtained by PCA analysis. The PCA analysis method is used for carrying out dimension analysis on the movement of the natural limb, and then, when the bionic mechanical design is carried out, a driver is arranged according to the main component direction obtained by the PCA analysis method. The more actuators, the more comprehensive the natural limb movement is restored.
As shown in fig. 29, each finger is provided with a wire slot 11 for accommodating a force output line B, a wire axis a is arranged along the wire slot 11, and two ends of the wire axis a are respectively fixed with the wire slots 11; the force output line B passes through the space between the wire axis a and the wire chase 11.
According to the physiological structure of a human hand, the kinematics of fingers is simplified into a link mechanism driven by a force output line B, finger bones are regarded as rigid connecting rods, ligaments and tendons connecting the finger bones are regarded as rigid elastic hinges, and the positions of insertion points of a series of lead shafts A and the positions of fixing points of the force output line B determine how the finger is driven by the force output line B to move. Therefore, the force output line B and the lead axis a need to be modeled to clarify the relationship between the length of the force output line B and the state of finger motion.
The position of the wire shaft A is determined after optimized calculation of the insertion point and the rigidity, and the position is stable, so that after the manipulator is manufactured, the bending degree of fingers can be controlled by calculating the length of the force output line B, and the accurate control of finger bending and hand grasping actions is realized.
As shown in fig. 8, the wire guide shaft a includes a mandrel and a wear-resistant sleeve, and the wear-resistant sleeve is sleeved outside the mandrel. The mandrel is fixed with the knuckle, and the wear-resistant sleeve is tightly matched with the mandrel. The wear-resistant sleeve reduces the friction force applied to the force output line B, plays a role in lubricating the force output line B, reduces the abrasion and the breakage of the force output line B as much as possible, and prolongs the service life of the force output line B.
As shown in fig. 9, the joint includes a pair of insertion points and a torsion spring 12 nested within the pin. The torsion spring 12 includes a coil spring portion and legs extending outwardly at both ends, each leg being secured to a corresponding knuckle. The rigidity of the torsion spring is used as the rigidity of the joint, and the torsion spring is convenient to install.
As shown in fig. 10, a first spring leaf is arranged at the joint between the proximal knuckle J and the palm, a second spring leaf is arranged at the joint between the proximal knuckle J and the middle knuckle Z, and a third spring leaf is arranged at the joint between the middle knuckle Z and the distal knuckle Y; and a sensor is arranged on each reed. The method and the structure for collecting the joint angle by the reed and the sensor adopt the prior art.
The output shaft of the motor is provided with a wire passing hole, and the force output wire B is a rope loop passing through the wire passing hole. One end of the rope ring combined with the output shaft of the motor is used as a near end, the farthest end of the rope ring is fixed with the far knuckle Y, when the motor outputs torque, the rope ring forms a twisted pair, and the length of the force output line B is changed.
The force output line B is a rope which penetrates through the wire passing hole, two ends of the rope are combined to enable the force output line B to form a closed loop, and the two ends of the rope are fixed on the far knuckle Y.
The wire passing hole is a ring fixed on the output shaft of the motor or a through hole arranged on the output shaft of the motor.
The force output line B is fixed on the far knuckle Y through a pressing piece; or the far knuckle Y is provided with a far wire axis A, and the rope is looped around the far wire axis A. The force output line B bears the tensile force in the form of a twisted pair, the tensile deformation directly borne by the rope ring is small, the rope ring is not easy to break, and the output force is large.
The far knuckle Y, the middle knuckle Z and the near knuckle J are respectively composed of respective frameworks and flexible pads 13, the adjacent frameworks are connected through elastic hinges, the wire grooves 11 are formed in the frameworks, the flexible pads 13 cover the frameworks, and the flexible pads cover part of the wire grooves 11. The skeleton corresponds to a phalanx, and the flexible pad 13 corresponds to a muscle on the finger. The flexible pad 13 shields the trunking 11 from foreign matter entering the trunking 11 and affecting the force output line B.
The force output line B is provided with lubricating oil, grease, colloid, a protective film and a protective layer. A little oil is coated on the force output line B, so that the toughness of the force output line B can be enhanced, and the service life is prolonged.
The force output line B penetrates through the line passing hole to form a rope loop at a position close to the output shaft of the motor, and line segments of the rope loop are bundled together. For example, after the force output line B passes through the wire through hole, the line sections on the two sides of the wire through hole are knotted. Therefore, when the motor outputs torque, the starting points of line segment winding are the same every time, the influence of the natural separation tendency of the line segments on the two sides of the line passing hole on torque transmission is avoided, the effective utilization rate of the torque of the motor is improved, and the control of the length of the force output line B by controlling the motor is further improved.
Bionic mechanical arm without shaking
In the experimental process, the situation that the finger shakes when the twisted wire is used as the force output wire B is found. The present embodiment aims to provide a structure for preventing finger shake for a bionic manipulator using a force output line B in the form of a twisted wire.
As shown in fig. 27, the path of the force output line B is provided with the beam splitter 6, and the line segment around which the force output line B is wound is separated at the beam splitter 6. The torque output by the motor enables the line segments of the force output line B to be wound together, further enables the length of the force output line B to be changed, enables the distance between the far knuckle Y and the palm to be changed, and therefore the fingers are bent. The winding of the line segments can lead to the shaking of fingers during movement, which is not beneficial to grasping.
As shown in fig. 25, the beam splitter 6 is provided at the proximal knuckle J; or the splitter 6 is arranged in the palm 7 and each finger has a respective splitter 6, the splitters 6 being rigid members. After tests, the beam splitting piece 6 is arranged, the beam splitting piece 6 acts the torque of the motor on the section from the beam splitting piece 6 to the motor, the beam splitting piece 6 interrupts the torque of the motor to enable the active winding trend of the line section, the influence of the torque wound by the line section on the middle knuckle Z and the far knuckle Y is isolated, and finger shaking is avoided. The rigid part referred to herein means a rigid part which is stable in shape and is not easily deformed; and not an absolute stiffness or hardness.
