Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of flexible drive of robots, and particularly relates to a mechanical impedance parameter adjustable flexible-drive rotary joint of a robot. The mechanical impedance parameter adjustable flexible-drive rotary joint comprises a magnetorheological clutch, a motor, a first rod, a second rod, torsion springs and joint shaft end covers; the motor and the magnetorheological clutch are respectively mounted on the second rod, a magnetorheological clutch input shaft and a magnetorheological clutch output shaft are respectively mounted on two sides of the magnetorehological clutch, the magnetorheological clutch input shaft is connected with the output shaft of the motor through a driving mechanism, and the magnetorehological clutch output shaft is connected with the first rod; two ends of the torsion springs are respectively connected on the magnetorheological clutch and the joint shaft end covers. By the arrangement, the rotary joint can be transformed between the active and passive states with damp adjustable, and the damp and the torsion springs feature in a buffering function; under the passive state, the joint can be rotated passively along with rod pieces, impact energy is stored, energy efficiency is improved, and the flexible-drive rotary joint is used for flexible operations, requirements of active and passive adjustment or occasions where impact exists.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to a robot rotary joint in the field of robot flexible drive, in particular to a robot flexible drive rotary joint with adjustable mechanical impedance parameters. Background technique [0002] In the field of robotics, many occasions require robot joints to switch between active and passive motion states. Active motion means that the joints move under the drive of the driver, and passive motion means that the joints rotate without being driven by external forces; passive motion is widely used in the motion of humans and animals, which can effectively reduce energy consumption, improve motion efficiency, and reduce ground impact . In practical applications, the robot joints need to switch between the two states of active motion and passive motion to meet the needs of the end of the robot applying force to the outside world and using the passive shock absorbing buffer protection mechanism under the action of external force. In th...
