Abstract

The invention provides a pneumatic type soft motion robot based on an earthworm motion principle. The robot comprises a first body part, a second body part and a third body part, wherein the first body part is connected with the second body part through a first telescopic part, the second body part is connected with the third body part through a second telescopic part, and the first body part and the second body part are controlled by a controller arranged on the second body part to stretch and retract; and mechanical steel bristles are arranged at the lower portion of the first body part and the lower portion of the third body part. By the adoption of the robot, a robot motion model is established according to the earthworm motion mechanism, and through the mechanical steel bristles, pneumatic control replacement and simulation of stretching and retracting of transverse muscles and longitudinal muscles of an earthworm, the robot can conduct complex actions of walking straightly, making a turn, crossing an obstacle and the like in a severe environment. Through intelligent control, the robot can be used in industrial pipeline exploration and disaster search and rescue.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of robots, in particular to a pneumatic soft motion robot based on the principle of earthworm motion. Background technique [0002] With the increasing frequency of human activities, humans living in the seismic zone are at risk of encountering natural disasters such as earthquakes. After an earthquake occurs, the rubble covers the ground during the rescue process, and the complex terrain makes rescue detection changes. It is extremely difficult, and aftershocks frequently occur after the earthquake, which greatly increases the risk factor of rescue work. This puts forward requirements for robots that can turn and cross obstacles in harsh environments (in caves, pipelines, tiles, etc.) The ability to move under complex terrain such as mountains and rocks, life detection, scientific exploration and other activities put forward higher requirements). [0003] Existing snake-shaped robots meander on the rolling wheels...
