Problems solved by technology

The spherical robot device with both internal and external drives (public number: CN101386174A) invented by Li Tuanjie of Xidian University uses an airbag shell, which can improve the problem of small contact surface between the shell and the ground, but it cannot realize self-inflating. The design of the robot is the same, there are disadvantages such as large targets when used for latent reconnaissance, and poor wind resistance when stationary

Embodiment Construction

[0012] In conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the spherical shell of the soft shell spherical robot of the present invention adopts a soft material airbag spherical shell to form the outer contour structure of the spherical robot; the flushing and exhausting device flushes the robot through the flushing pump and the one-way valve before the robot moves. , Exhaust the robot through the exhaust valve after the movement. The motion mechanism is mainly composed of a central axis, a straight drive mechanism, a steering drive mechanism, and a counterweight assembly. The driving mechanism is connected with the counterweight assembly, and the steering movement of the spherical robot is realized by utilizing the offset of the left and right center of gravity of the counterweight assembly. The central axis is fixed relative to the spherical shell, providing a stable platform for installing sensors and controllers. The spherical shell adopts soft material airbag spherical shell ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a soft-shell spherical robot which comprises an air sac spherical shell, an aeration and exhaust device and a moving device, wherein the aeration and exhaust device and the moving device are arranged in the spherical shell by virtue of glands, the aeration and exhaust device consists of an aeration pump, a check valve and an exhaust valve, the check valve and the exhaust valve are fixed at the two sides of an air pump, the check valve is connected with the rear end of the air outlet of the air pump in series, the exhaust valve is communicated with the air inlet of the air pump, and the air inlet of the air pump is communicated with the exterior of the spherical shell by virtue of a first gland. The soft-shell spherical robot disclosed by the invention is a sphere when moving and is a soft body when stopping, thus the soft-shell spherical robot is beneficial to concealment during reconnaissance and can be prevented from being blown away by wind.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of mechatronics, in particular to a soft-shell spherical robot, which can be used in various fields such as highly toxic gas detection, on-site environmental observation, and military attack weapons. Background technique [0002] The spherical robot is a rolling walking robot with a new structure, which has the characteristics of fast movement speed, good off-road performance, and relatively simple control. Afterwards, spherical robots have gradually become one of the hot spots in the field of intelligent robot research at home and abroad. Abroad, the University of Pisa in Italy, Uppsala University in Sweden and Rotimdus, NASA, and the University of Sherbrooke in Quebec, Canada have successively carried out research on spherical robots and launched spherical robots with different functions. There are also some units and scholars in China who have begun to explore the field. Beijing University of Posts and T...
