Abstract

The present invention provides a deformable soft spherical module robot, comprising first, second and third spherical flexible modules, a detachable connection module, a first electromagnet, a second electromagnet, a relay, an electromagnetic valve, and a trachea joint , an air pump, a control system, and a power supply, wherein: the first, second, and third spherical flexible modules are connected into one body through a detachable connection module, which serves as the torso of the robot; the first electromagnet is arranged on the first spherical flexible module The second electromagnet is set under the third spherical flexible module; the electromagnet is connected with the relay; the solenoid valve is connected with the first, second and third spherical flexible modules through the air pipe; the electromagnetic valve is connected with the air pump through the air pipe joint The air pump is connected to the power supply; the solenoid valve is connected to the relay, and the relay is connected to the control system; the control system is connected to the power supply. The invention learns from the crawling principle of the caterpillar to realize the forward and backward movement of the soft robot.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a modular robot used in rescue and detection, in particular to a deformable and detachable modular soft robot. Background technique [0002] A robot is a machine device that can perform work automatically. It can receive human command immediately; it can also operate autonomously according to the technical indicators and action principles stipulated by humans through pre-written programs. At present, there are endless researches on robots, but the common robots are almost all rigid, and their own size cannot be changed. Rigid robots have the characteristics of fast movement speed, high operation accuracy, and relatively simple driving. [0003] With the development of the economy, various geological disasters have brought more and more losses to human beings, and various types of robots have played an irreplaceable role in the rescue and relief process. But due to the unpredictability of various terrains. However, traditiona...
