In this embodiment, the biped robot includes a trunk part, a left leg part and a right leg part, wherein the left leg part and the right leg part are symmetrically disposed on both sides of the trunk part and are both rotatably connected to the trunk part. It should be appreciated that the bipedal robot is of a bilateral symmetry.
The left leg part comprises a first driving motor and the shock-absorbing and energy-storing foot structure, and the right leg part comprises a second driving motor and the shock-absorbing and energy-storing foot structure. It should be understood that the left and right leg members also include thigh members, calf members, and the like.
Specifically, when the left foot is used for positioning, moving and starting the right foot, the robot control system sends out an instruction to move the gravity center of the robot to the left foot so that the right foot can move freely, and then the robot control system sends out an instruction to finish the whole process of lifting the right foot, adjusting the moving direction of the right foot, moving the gravity center of the robot, dropping the right foot and transferring the gravity center of the mobile robot to the right foot, so that the process of crossing one step is finished, and the whole process of walking with two feet is realized in a circulating way. When a user walks on feet, the damping and energy storage device is arranged at the toe part of the foot structure, so that the foot structure accords with the human body kinematic characteristic in the movement process; meanwhile, the damping and energy storage device is also arranged on the sole of the foot structure, so that the foot structure can be in damping and energy storage motion during walking, and the damping and energy storage device is beneficial to reducing the rigid impact between the foot structure and the ground. Therefore, by introducing the sole buffering elastic device and the toe buffering elastic device, the damping and energy storage capacity of the foot structure of the biped robot is realized, and meanwhile, the foot structure of the biped robot is prevented from having larger rigid impact with the ground in the movement process, so that the movement performance of the biped robot is improved.
