本发明的描述中,除非另有明确的限定,设置、安装、连接等词语应做广义理解,所属技术领域技术人员可以结合技术方案的具体内容合理确定上述词语在本发明中的具体含义。
本发明的描述中,参考术语“一个实施例”、“一些实施例”、“示意性实施例”、“示例”、“具体示例”、或“一些示例”等的描述意指结合该实施例或示例描述的具体特征、结构、材料或者特点包含于本发明的至少一个实施例或示例中。在本说明书中,对上述术语的示意性表述不一定指的是相同的实施例或示例。而且,描述的具体特征、结构、材料或者特点可以在任何的一个或多个实施例或示例中以合适的方式结合。
参照图1,本发明的实施例中提供了一种仿人变胞灵巧手,仿人变胞灵巧手包括手掌模块100与手指模块200,手指模块200设置有多个,并安装于手掌模块100上,手掌模块100与手指模块200分别用于模拟人手的手掌及手指,多个手指模块200配合动作,并执行相应抓取任务。
具体的,手掌模块100包括多个手掌连杆110与手掌驱动单元120,多个手掌连杆110周围依次转动连接,并围合形成闭环结构,手掌驱动单元120与部分的手掌连杆110连接,以驱动相邻的手掌连杆110相对转动。为便于执行抓取动作,手指模块200设置为3-5个,只有部分的手掌连杆110上安装有手指模块200;另外,只有部分的手掌连杆110直接受手 掌驱动单元120的驱动而转动,其他的手掌连杆110受与其连接的其他手掌驱动单元120的带动而转动,由于多个手掌连杆110转动连接为闭环结构,在手掌驱动单元120的驱动下,参与转动的手掌连杆110的数量以及手掌模块100的自由度发生变化,以将手掌模块100构成变胞机构;如此,手掌模块100能够呈现出不同构型,使手指模块200变换不同的抓取角度,能够适用于多种任务环境下的抓取需求。
参照图2至图4,手指模块200包括指背单元210、指腹单元220与手指驱动单元230,指背单元210与指腹单元220层叠设置,指腹单元220的柔性大于指背单元210的柔性,指背单元210的内部穿设有指背牵引丝240,指腹单元220的内部穿设有指腹牵引丝250,指背牵引丝240的一端连接于指背单元210的尾端,另一端连接于手指驱动单元230,指腹牵引丝250的一端连接于指腹单元220的尾端,另一端连接于手指驱动单元230,手指驱动单元230用于驱动指背牵引丝240和指腹牵引丝250收放,以使手指模块200朝向指腹单元220弯曲或背向指腹单元220舒展。示例性的,初始状态下的手指模块200呈现为直线形态,手指驱动单元230拉动指腹牵引丝250收紧的同时,释放指背牵引丝240,此情形下,指腹单元220受指背牵引丝240的牵引并进行弯曲、蜷缩,指背单元210不受指背牵引丝240的牵引,而在指腹单元220的带动下跟随指腹单元220同步弯曲,此时,手指模块200能够执行抓取任务;手指驱动单元230释放指腹牵引丝250的同时,收紧指背牵引丝240,此情形下,指背单元210受指背牵引丝240的牵引,由弯曲状态进行舒展,指腹单元220不受指腹牵引丝250的牵引,而在指背单元210的带动下同步舒展,使手指模块200恢复至初始状态,此时手指模块200释放抓取物。
需要说明的是,本发明中的仿人变胞灵巧手高度还原了人手执行抓取动作时,手掌与手指的协同效应;如,人手执行抓取动作时,手掌向手心方向包绕、收缩,各个手指朝向手心弯曲、蜷缩,本发明中,手掌模块100的多个手掌连杆110在手掌驱动单元120的驱动下能够改变构型并朝向手掌模块100的掌心转动,并且手指模块200中的手指驱动单元230通过牵引丝牵引指背单元210与指腹单元220弯曲,配合手掌模块100的收缩,将物体包络于手指模块200与掌心之间,完成抓取任务。
进一步的,本发明中将指腹单元220的柔性设置为大于指背单元210的柔性,一方面,执行抓取任务时,指腹单元220与待抓取物接触,高柔性的指腹单元220与待抓取物的贴合度较高,能够适应待抓取物的形状,实现稳定抓取,并且不会因为与待抓取物之间产生硬性接触、碰撞,而损坏待抓取物;另一方面,指腹单元220与指背单元210采用软硬结合的方式,指背单元210比指腹单元220的硬度高,指腹单元220较指背单元210的柔度好,指背 单元210为手指模块200的提供一定程度的硬性支撑,避免手指模块200整体柔度过大而影响结构强度,指腹单元220的柔性好,便于手指模块200朝向指腹单元220弯曲,符合人体手指只能朝向掌心弯曲的特性,使手指模块200同时具备一定的刚性与柔性,满足不同抓取环境下对机械手刚度与柔度的需求。
需要说明的是,由于每一手指模块200连接于不同的手掌连杆110,手指模块200的弯曲方向各异,但均朝向手掌模块100的掌心弯曲,并且手指模块200弯曲时,指背单元210朝向指腹单元220弯曲。
在一些实施例中,参照图3,指腹单元220包括多个指腹连接体221,指腹连接体221沿手指模块200的长度方向排布,相邻的指腹连接体221相互靠近的边缘连接形成指腹弯曲部222,指腹弯曲部222的厚度小于指腹连接体221的厚度;如此,多个指腹连接体221连接形成指腹单元220,指腹单元220弯曲时基于相邻的指腹连接体221的连接处,即指腹弯曲部222进行弯曲,由于指腹弯曲部222的厚度较小,使指腹单元220的弯曲更为便利。同样的,指背单元210包括多个指背连接体211,指背连接体211沿手指模块200的长度方向排布,相邻的指背连接体211相互靠近的边缘连接形成指背弯曲部212,指背弯曲部212的厚度小于指背连接体211的厚度;如此,多个指背连接体211连接形成指背单元210,指背单元210弯曲时基于相邻的指背连接体211的连接处,即指背弯曲部212进行弯曲,由于指背弯曲部212的厚度较小,使指背单元210的弯曲更为便利。进一步的,指背弯曲部212与指腹弯曲部222沿手指模块200的弯曲方向相对设置,在手指模块200弯曲时,指背单元210与指腹单元220的弯曲位置相匹配,避免由于指背单元210与指腹单元220的弯曲位置错位,导致在手指模块200弯曲过程中,指背单元210的弯曲与指腹单元220的弯曲相互干涉,影响抓取效率。
进一步的,多个指腹连接体221沿手指模块200的宽度方向排布,沿宽度方向相邻的指腹连接体221相互靠近的边缘形成过渡部223,过渡部223背向指背单元210凹陷;同样的,多个指背连接体211沿手指模块200的宽度方向排布,沿宽度方向相邻的指背连接体211相互靠近的边缘形成加强部213,加强部213朝向指腹单元220突出,并位于相邻的指腹单元220之间。将指腹连接体221与指背连接体211在宽度方向上排布,可以增大手指模块200的抓取面以及手指模块200与待抓取物之间的接触面积,提高手指模块200对待抓取物的包络程度;并且,由于指背单元210宽度方向上的距离加长,手指模块200在宽度方向上的强度提高,避免手指模块200弯曲时在宽度方向上发生变形,能够提高手指模块200抓取的稳定性。另外,指腹单元220上的过渡部223与指背单元210上的加强部213相互配合,加强 部213在宽度方向上与相邻的指腹单元220抵接,由于指背单元210的强度高于指腹单元220,能够进一步提高手指模块200在宽度方向上的强度,避免手指模块200在宽度方向上的伸缩或弯曲。
需要说明的是,上述的长度方向是指手指模块200整体的延伸方向,手指模块200背向手掌模块100延伸,符合人手的基本形态;宽度方向是指相邻手指模块200的排布方向。
多个沿长度方向排布的指腹连接体221形成指腹弯曲组,多个沿长度方向排布的指背连接体211形成指背弯曲组,当指腹连接体221与指背连接体211排布有多个时,指腹弯曲组与指背弯曲组均具有多组,相邻的指腹连接组通过过渡部223连接,相邻组的指背连接组通过加强部213连接。需要说明的是,每组的指腹连接组内均穿设有一个指腹牵引丝250,同一手指模块200内,指腹牵引丝250的数量与指腹连接体221在宽度方向上排布的数量相同;同样的,每组的指背连接组内均穿设有一个指背牵引丝240,同一手指模块200内,指背牵引丝240的数量与指背连接体211在宽度方向上排布的数量相同。如此,能够减小指背单元210与指腹单元220的柔度牵引精度的影响,同一手指模块200内的指背弯曲组与指腹弯曲组同步弯曲,指背单元210与指腹单元220的不同区域所受到的牵引丝的牵引作用相对均匀,提高了手指模块200对待抓取物的抓取力度。
本发明中,参照图5,指背连接体211包括四个指背连接面2111,四个指背连接面2111的侧边依次首尾相接,并且四个指背连接面2111的顶点重合,以形成指背顶角2112;相邻的指背连接面2111的侧边相互连接后共同形成结合棱,每一指背连接体211内均包括四个结合棱,并且其中两条结合棱沿手指模块200的宽度方向延伸,且分别位于指背顶角2112相对的两侧,其中两条结合棱沿手指模块200的长度方向延伸,且分别位于指背顶角2112相对的两侧。同样的,参照图6,指腹连接体221包括四个指腹连接面2211,四个指腹连接面2211的侧边依次首尾相接,并且四个指腹连接面2211的顶点重合,以形成指腹顶角2212;相邻的指腹连接面2211的侧边相互连接后共同形成结合棱,每一指腹连接体221内均包括四个结合棱,并且其中两条结合棱沿手指模块200的宽度方向延伸,且分别位于指腹顶角2212相对的两侧,其中两条结合棱沿手指模块200的长度方向延伸,且分别位于指腹顶角2212相对的两侧。
需要说明的是,指腹顶角2212位于指腹单元220背向弯曲方向的一侧,指背顶角2112位于指背单元210背向弯曲方向的一侧,指背单元210与指腹单元220层叠设置后,指背顶角2112位于指腹顶角2212背向弯曲方向的一侧,指背连接体211上的结合棱与指腹连接体221上的结合棱的位置在手指模块200的弯曲方向上对应。本实施例中,沿手指模块200的 宽度方向,设置指背顶角2112的开度不小于指腹顶角2212的开度,指背单元210中沿宽度方向延伸的两条结合棱能够在宽度方向上提供更大的支撑,由于指背单元210的硬度高于指腹单元220的硬度,指背单元210能够在宽度方向上向指腹单元220提供更大的支撑力,进而提高手指模块200在宽度方向上的强度,减小手指模块200在宽度方向上的收缩、弯曲。
在一个实施例中,指背单元210与指腹单元220连接形成一体成型结构;即,指背单元210与指腹单元220一体呈型,无需进行后期装配。一方面,降低了手指模块200的装配难度,另一方面,指背弯曲部212与指腹弯曲部222的匹配精度高,使手指模块200具有较高的弯曲性能。示例性的,指背单元210与指腹单元220通过注塑、3D打印等加工方式成型。
在其他实施例中,指背连接体211与指腹连接体221相向的一侧相互粘接,并且指背弯曲部212与指腹弯曲部222为分体式结构。从而,在指背单元210与指腹单元220的层叠方向上,指背连接体211与指腹连接体221相互粘接,使指背单元210与指腹单元220形成整体结构,并能够同步弯曲,连接方式简单、快捷;另外,由于指背弯曲部212与指腹弯曲部222并未连接,并相互独立,因此能够减小粘接对手指模块200弯曲性能的影响,使指背弯曲部212与指腹弯曲部222能够自由弯曲,提高了手指模块200的弯曲的灵活度。
本发明中,参照图6与图7,指腹连接体221的边缘设置有缺口2213,在长度方向上相邻的指腹连接体221的缺口2213相向设置,长度方向上相邻的指腹连接体221相互连接后,两个缺口2213相互对接并组合形成封闭的通孔,且该缺口2213恰好位于指腹弯曲部222。在指腹连接体221上设置缺口2213,能够进一步提高指腹单元220的柔性,减小指腹弯曲部222背向指背单元210的一侧在弯曲时的挤压程度,使指腹单元220的弯曲更为灵活。
在另一实施例中,指腹连接体221沿长度方向相对的两侧均设有缺口2213,沿长度方向相邻的指腹连接体221的缺口2213相向设置,长度方向上相邻的指腹连接体221相互连接后,两个缺口2213相互对接并组合形成封闭的通孔,且缺口2213恰好位于指腹弯曲部222上,背向指背单元210一侧的缺口2213设置为大于朝向所述指背单元210一侧的缺口2213。如此,指腹单元220的两侧均设置缺口2213,可以提高指腹单元220弯曲以及舒展过程中的灵活度,进一步提高了指腹单元220的柔性;并且,由于手指模块200弯曲时背向指背单元210,将背向指背单元210一侧的缺口2213设置为大于朝向指背单元210一侧的缺口2213,更有利于指腹单元220的弯曲,使手指模块200的弯曲更为灵活。
本发明中,参照图3,指腹连接体221的内部具有沿长度方向贯穿的第一空腔2214,相邻的指腹连接体221的第一空腔2214连通,由于指腹连接体221的内部中空,指腹单元220的柔性更高,指腹单元220弯曲时,能够产生更大的变形以适配抓取物的形状。同样的,指 背连接体211的内部具有沿长度方向贯穿的第二空腔2113,使指背单元210能够兼顾一定的柔性,在受到指背牵引丝240牵引或者指腹单元220带动时,能够更好的进行弯曲。
进一步的,参照图4,指背连接体211的内部具有沿长度方向贯穿的导向孔2114,相邻指背单元210的导向孔2114相互连通,指背牵引丝240依次穿设于导向孔2114内,指背牵引丝240受手指驱动单元230的驱动时,受导向孔2114的导向而沿手指模块200的长度方向收放,避免指背牵引丝240在指背连接体211内部晃动,由于指背单元210具有一定硬度,将导向孔2114设置于指背单元210,能够准确限定手指模块200的弯曲方向,提高仿人变胞灵巧手的抓取精度。另外,指腹牵引丝250直接穿设于多个指腹单元220的第一空腔2214内,利用第一空腔2214实现指腹牵引丝250对指腹单元220的牵引。
另外,导向孔2114设置于指背连接体211在宽度方向上的中心处,指背连接体211宽度方向上不同区域所受的牵引力更为均匀,手指模块200对抓取物的抓取更为稳定。
参照图2,手指模块200还包括固定座260,手指驱动单元230、指背单元210与指腹单元220均安装于固定座260上,固定座260与手掌连杆110可拆卸连接。如此,手指模块200作为一整体结构安装于手掌连杆110,手指模块200内部结构出现故障时,可以直接拆卸手指模块200进行维护;另外,手指驱动单元230位于手指模块200内部,与手掌驱动单元120没有关联,可以降低仿人变胞灵巧手内部不同驱动元件之间的干涉,使仿人变胞灵巧手结构更为简单,运动控制更为快捷。
手指驱动单元230可以设置为减速电机,手指驱动单元230安装于固定座260的内部,固定座260的内部设有绕线辊270,指背牵引丝240或指腹牵引丝250绕设于绕线辊270的外周,绕线辊270与手指驱动单元230连接,并在手指驱动单元230的驱动下转动,以将指背牵引丝240或指腹牵引丝250缠绕于绕线辊270的外周或者释放缠绕于绕线辊270上的牵引丝。固定座260内沿指背单元210与指腹单元220的层叠方向排布有两个绕线辊270,两个绕线辊270分别用于绕设指背牵引丝240和指腹牵引丝250,另外,每一绕线辊270均可通过一个手指驱动单元230进行驱动,或者两个绕线辊270共用一个手指驱动单元230。
另外,参照图8,指背单元210与指腹单元220连接于固定座260的外壁,固定座260内设置有朝向指背单元210延伸的指背导线孔261与朝向指腹单元220延伸的指腹导线孔261,指背牵引丝240由绕线辊270向指背导线孔261引出,经由指背导线孔261的导向,引入指背单元210内的导向孔2114内,指腹牵引丝250由绕线辊270向指腹导线孔261引出,经由指腹导线孔261的导向,引入指腹单元220内的第一空腔2214内。
本发明中,参照图9,手掌驱动单元120设置有两个,其中一个手掌连杆110包括两个 支臂111,两个手掌驱动单元120分别安装于两个支臂111上,并用于驱动连接于支臂111的手掌连杆110转动,两个手掌连杆110的转动能够进一步带动与该两个手掌连杆110转动连接的其他手掌连杆110转动,使手掌模块100变换相应构型。需要说明的是,两个支臂111为手掌驱动单元120提供安装基础,使手掌驱动单元120集成于手掌模块100的内部,仿人变胞灵巧手的外形更为简洁。
另外,仿人变胞灵巧手还包括底座300,具有两个支臂111的手掌连杆110转动连接于底座300上,该手掌连杆110相对底座300转动时,能够改变手掌模块100与手指模块200的位置,手指模块200能够对不同位置处的抓取物进行抓取,扩大了仿人变胞灵巧手的抓取范围。
上面结合附图对本发明实施例作了详细说明,但是本发明不限于上述实施例,在所属技术领域普通技术人员所具备的知识范围内,还可以在不脱离本发明宗旨的前提下作出各种变化。此外,在不冲突的情况下,本发明的实施例及实施例中的特征可以相互组合。
