AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This new technology allows for faster and more accurate movements by combining two types of energy sources - regular rotation or high frequency (HF) feedback from an actuator on the legs' mechanisms. It also includes a module that makes it possible to create various shapes based upon factors like inclination angle, ground conditions, etc., which helps improve performance over traditional methods while being adaptable to varying terrains. Overall, this innovation improves mobility and flexibility within mobile devices.

Problems solved by technology

This technical problem addressed in this patented paper relates to reducing power consumption during locomotion tasks (such as crawling) without sacrificially increasing their weight or requiring expensive equipment like hydraulic systems that limit its range of operation. Additionally, existing methods used for robotically controlled legrader machines lack versatility with complicated terrains, making them difficult to operate effectively over these terrains even at low speeds.

Embodiment Construction

[0025] Such as figure 1 As shown, the hybrid drive leg mechanism is a multi-degree-of-freedom crank-rocker mechanism, one of which is driven by unidirectional constant speed rotation (unidirectional arrow arc curve), and the remaining degrees of freedom are driven by linear servo or rotary Servo drive (two-way arrow straight line or arc curve); one-way rotary drive drives the crank to rotate at high speed to realize the gait swing of the hybrid drive mechanism, realizing the rapidity and high efficiency of the mechanism; the servo drive controls the legs on the basis of the main drive. Adjust the foot to further adjust the trajectory of the foot end, so that the mechanism has good flexibility and adapts to different and complex terrains. Such as figure 2 and image 3 As shown, the black thick solid line represents the body of the mobile device. Through the different topological installations of the hybrid drive leg mechanism, different forms of the mobile device are formed....

Abstract

A multi-foot moving device based on a combination driving mechanism is formed by a machine body (1) and a plurality of combination driving leg structures (2). The combination driving leg structures (2) are mounted on the machine body (1), and each combination driving leg structure (2) comprises a base (5), a main driving motor (6), a motor base (7), a coupling (8), a crank rotating shaft (9), a crank (10), a crank connecting rod rotating shaft (11), a transmission connecting rod (12), a rocker rotating shaft (13), a gear case rotating shaft (14), a linear driving unit (15), a rocker (16), a rocker small leg rotating shaft (17), a small leg unit (18), a connecting rod-screw rod nut sleeve rotating shaft (19) and a connecting rod small leg rotating shaft (20). The multi-foot moving device based on the combination driving mechanism achieves fast and efficient gait swing, and further achieves efficient walking and running of the moving device; meanwhile, flexible control is achieved, and the adaptability of the moving device to hillsides, grass lands, hollows and the like is further achieved.
