This invention discloses a
rope-driven anthropomorphic
wrist joint with rotational decoupling characteristics, belonging to the field of
robotics technology. It includes a rotational decoupling mechanism and a differential mechanism. In the rotational decoupling mechanism, a fixed wheel is fixed to the
robot's
forearm, while the driving wheel is connected to the differential mechanism. The
rope assembly enables flexible drive of the joint module. The rotational decoupling mechanism employs a movable
pulley system, utilizing the characteristics of the movable pulleys to decouple the motion of the two sets of steel cables as they pass through the
rotational joint. This allows the drive unit to be centrally located on the
robot base or near the proximal end structure. The differential mechanism consists of a
differential rotation axis, a fixed seat on the outer side of the
differential rotation axis, and two symmetrically arranged sets of differential rotating wheels, forming a differential structure. This enables multi-degree-of-freedom composite movements such as
pitch and
yaw within a limited space, significantly improving structural compactness. This invention uses a
rope-driven combined with rope transmission structure, enhancing
joint flexibility and effectively isolating the motor output from
impact and vibration.
