Mechanical arm for swarm-robot

Abstract

The invention provides mechanical arms for a swarm-robot, which are respectively arranged on each single robot in the swarm robot, wherein a dragging circle is arranged on the waist of the single robot. The mechanical arm for the swarm-robot comprises a bracket part, a main shaft, a motor, a transmission mechanism, a clamping jaw, a position approach sensing part and a tensile force detection part, wherein the clamping jaw comprises an upper clamping jaw and a lower clamping jaw, and are positioned in front of the mechanical arm of the swarm-robot; the motor drives the jaws to open and close through the transmission mechanism to grip the dragging circle of another single robot; the position approach sensing part is positioned in front part of the mechanical arm for the swarm-robot, and can sense the distance between the mechanical arm for the swarm-robot and a gripped object; and the tensile force detection part is positioned on the rear part of the mechanical arm for the swarm-robot, and can detect the tensile force of the mechanical arm for the swarm-robot. The mechanical arm for the swarm-robot has the advantages of more functions, small volume, compact structure and reliable gripping, can be used on the structure of the swarm-robot, and realize rigid combination of each single robot.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to the field of robots, in particular to a manipulator for group robots. Background technique: [0002] Swarm robot is a robot group system composed of a large number of small single robots. The functions of each single robot in this system are relatively simple, so when a single robot cannot complete a complex task, the group robot realizes the macro application through the cooperation of each single robot. In order to enable swarm robots to realize the organic connection and combination of individual units according to the requirements of different tasks, achieve rigid combination and information transmission, and form different reasonable spatial topological structures, it is necessary to improve the structure of individual robots and enhance the relationship between each other. The mode of cooperation among them achieves the purpose of completing more complex tasks. [0003] The manipulator is the main executive component o...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the lack of single function of the existing robot manipulator, and provide a swarm robot manipulator, which can detect the proximity of the target and the connection drag force by itself, and can be used as an interface for charging from the outside. In this way, the rigid combination between single robots can be reliably realized, so that group robots can complete more complex tasks and achieve macro applications
