Abstract

Belonging to the technical field of anthropomorphic robots, an underactuated robot finger device with tendons and gears comprises a base seat, a motor, a reducer, a first gear, a second gear, a near joint shaft, a middle finger section, a far joint shaft and a terminal finger section. The device also comprises a driving rope pulley, a transitional rope pulley, a transitional gear, a transitional shaft, a first tendon, a second tendon, a driven gear and a spring part. The device utilizes the gear and tendon transmission mechanism, the movably socketed middle finger section and the decoupling function of the spring part to comprehensively realize the special effect that the double-joint underactuated fingers are bent to grasp an object. Similar to a human finger, the device has the advantages of simple and reliable structure, low cost, convenient assembly and maintenance, small volume and light weight. The device is particularly used as the thumb or one part of other fingers of an anthropomorphic robot hand, so that the anthropomorphic robot hand can use less actuators to drive more rotating joints, and can be self-adapted to the shape and size of the grasped object.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of humanoid robots, and in particular relates to the structural design of a tendon-cord gear underactuated robot finger device. Background technique [0002] Similar to humans, most functions of anthropomorphic robots are realized through hand manipulation, so the hand structure is an important part of anthropomorphic robots, and its design is one of the key technologies of anthropomorphic robots. In order to increase the anthropomorphism of the hand, more joint degrees of freedom should be designed for the hand. However, in order to reduce the control difficulty of the anthropomorphic robot hand, as well as reduce the volume and weight of the hand, it is necessary to reduce the number of drivers. Certain contradictions, in addition, in order to better grasp the object, the fingers also need to have a certain degree of adaptability when grasping the object. The robot anthropomorphic finger underactuated dev...
