Abstract

A 7-dof anthropomorphic arm driven by the pneumatic artificial muscles mainly comprises a shoulder joint (1), an elbow joint (2), a wrist joint (3), an arm support frame (4), an upper arm (5), a front arm (6) and a flexible cable (7). The arm support frame (4) is fixed with a base (49) and the pneumatic artificial muscles (44) are arranged in the arm support frame; a steel wire (A1) connected with the pneumatic artificial muscles (44) realizes the rotation of the X, Y, Z shafts through the pulley blocks (B0), (B1), (B2), (B3), (B4) and (B5); the pneumatic artificial muscles (52) driving the elbow joint (2) and the wrist joint (3) to act are arranged in the upper arm (5) and directly operate and control an elbow shaft (21) through a rope (A2) connected with the pneumatic artificial musclesor are respectively attached on a wrist (32) and a palm (34) through a casing tube steel wire (A2) and a casing tube steel wire (A3) so as to realize the rotation round the front arm (6) and the lateral movement. The invention has the advantages of large output force, compliant operation and control, simple structure and small weight simple and easy use, maintenance and repair.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a humanoid arm, in particular to a humanoid robot arm driven by pneumatic artificial muscles. Background technique [0002] As robot technology matures day by day, its application fields continue to expand. One of the factors that plagued the development of humanoid arms is the drive. The rotational movement between the joints makes people naturally think of using the motor that also outputs the rotational movement as the power source of the humanoid arm. The idea based on motor drive is bound to bring great difficulties to the design of the mechanism of the humanoid arm. The actuator designed and developed based on the principle of biological muscle movement—pneumatic artificial muscle, has the characteristics of simple design, low cost, unique bionicity, high output force / weight ratio and good flexibility in recent years. It has received more and more attention in the field of robotics. Pneumatic artificial muscle is one ...
