Abstract

The invention discloses a wheel-propeller-leg integrated amphibious robot and a control method thereof. The robot mainly consists of umbrella wheel-propeller-legs, a chassis, water chambers, driving modules, a control module and a sensor, wherein the umbrella wheel-propeller-legs comprise propeller legs, power output shafts and connecting rods which are hinged to each other to form a three-link mechanism, and the shapes of the wheel-propeller-legs are adjusted by controlling the extension and contraction of the connecting rods made of shape memory alloy to adapt to different environments and obstacles; the four water chambers are symmetrically arranged, and the mass and the centre-of-gravity position of the robot are changed by independently controlling water filling and draining of the water chambers so as to control the robot to realize diving, floating and attitude adjustment. The wheel-propeller-leg integrated amphibious robot disclosed by the invention is high in environmental adaptability, has multiple operation modes of crawling on land, snorkeling in water and crawling underwater, and can be widely used for detection of complex environment on the water side.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of mobile robots, and relates to an amphibious robot with integrated wheels, legs and paddles. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the deepening and development of my country's marine scientific research and marine development strategy, more and more survey and detection work has been done in shoals, tidal flats, oceans, lakes and other environments. It is of great significance to develop amphibious robots that can move freely in various environments. [0003] Invention patent CN101570220A discloses a reversible amphibious multi-legged robot with variable posture. The robot is composed of multiple walking feet connected in parallel. By controlling the posture adjustment motor, the robot's standing and motion posture can be changed in real time, and its ability to adapt to complex amphibious environments can be improved. , each walking foot is composed of a single input vertical output module and a leg...
