Abstract

The invention discloses a folding hopping robot comprising a stand, a hopping and rolling multiplexing mechanism, a hopping angle regulating mechanism, a driving mechanism, a sensing unit, a communication control unit and a power module, wherein the hopping and rolling multiplexing mechanism, the hopping angle regulating mechanism, the driving mechanism, the sensing unit, the communication control unit and the power module are all arranged on the stand; the hopping and rolling multiplexing mechanism comprises a tension spring, a right wheel, a left wheel, synchromesh gears, a right leg, a left leg and synchromesh gear installation parts; and the driving mechanism comprises a rolling driving mechanism and a hopping driving mechanism, the rolling driving mechanism is connected with the right wheel and the left wheel, and the hopping driving mechanism drives the right leg and opens or folds the left leg and the right leg through the synchromesh gears. In the invention, rolling and hopping are combined. The combination of hopping and rolling movement modes ensures that the robot can adapt to more complicated terrain environments; and limit electric quantity of the robot per se can be effectively saved by adopting a rolling movement mode on a smooth road, thereby the problems of single movement mode and large electricity consumption of the current hopping robot are solved.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical fields of bouncing robots and wireless sensor networks. Background technique

[0002] An outstanding problem to be solved in the development of mobile robots is the improvement of terrain adaptability. Wheeled robots and crawler robots often cannot pass through obstacles or ravines that are larger than their own size. Walking and crawling robots have many degrees of freedom, complex control and slow movement, and they are also helpless when encountering large obstacles or ravines. The bouncing robot has the characteristics of large range of motion, strong ability to overcome obstacles and fast avoidance of danger, etc., which can enhance the robot's environmental adaptability and overcome difficulties caused by rough ground and obstacles. The current bouncing robot also has problems such as low bouncing height, inability to adjust the take-off direction and angle, and single motion form. The present invention h...
