Abstract

The invention discloses a two-way directional force output air-powered flexible drive device, comprising an end cover, a first rubber tube, and an air-powered flexible drive device constructed by springs embedded in the wall of the rubber tube; a piston cylinder is arranged in front of the air-powered flexible drive device, a second rubber tube is sheathed outside the air-powered flexible drive device in an air-tight way, and the front end of the second rubber tube is sheathed at the rear end cover of the piston cylinder; the piston cylinder is provided with a front airport and a rear airport with a piston body arranged between the front airport and the rear airport; the piston body is connected with a hollow piston rod, the rear end of the piston rod is connected with the front end cover of the air-powered flexible drive device, and the piston rod is communicated with the inner cavity of the piston cylinder communicating the front airport and the inner cavity of the air-powered flexible drive device; the rear end cover of the piston rod is provided with through holes which is communicated with the inner cavity of the piston cylinder communicating the rear airport and the inner cavity of the second rubber tube. The invention has the advantages of flexible motion, good flexibility, high stiffness, large stroke and similar movement mode with the animal muscles.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the pneumatic flexible driver and has good application prospects in agricultural robots, medical robots, service robots and other occasions. Background technique [0002] Pneumatic flexible actuators have the advantages of simple structure, clean and pollution-free, large power-to-weight ratio, and flexibility, and overcome the disadvantages of large structural size and difficulty in miniaturization of motor drives. Applications. However, the pneumatic flexible actuator also has some shortcomings such as the contradiction between flexibility and rigidity, and hysteresis. A kind of pneumatic flexible driver is proposed, such as patent No. CN2790700: the patent name is a kind of pneumatic flexible driver (such as figure 1 ), which discloses a pneumatic flexible driver comprising a left end cover, a rubber tube, a spring nested in the wall of the rubber tube, a right end cover, and a pipe joint, and the two ends of the rubber tu...
