Abstract

The invention discloses an energy-saving variable-stiffness elastic joint based on a differential gear system, and relates to a variable-stiffness joint. The problems that an existing variable-stiffness joint is large in size, complicated in control and small in variable-stiffness range as well as more energy consumption caused by overcoming the action of spring resistance in a stiffness regulation process can be solved. The energy-saving variable-stiffness elastic joint comprises a shell, a lever structure, the differential gear system, an input gear system 1 and an input gear system 2; the lever mechanism comprises an output rod, a lever arm, a lever fulcrum and a spring; the differential gear system comprises a differential planetary frame, a differential planetary wheel and a differential solar wheel; the differential gear system is arranged on the input gear system 1; the input gear system 1 is arranged on the input gear system 2; the differential planetary wheel is meshed with the differential solar wheel; the planetary frame 1 is connected with the gear system 1; the planetary frame 1 is mounted on an output shaft of a stiffness regulation motor. The energy-saving variable-stiffness elastic joint is used for manufacturing robot joints.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a variable stiffness joint, in particular to an energy-saving variable stiffness elastic joint based on a differential gear train. In the field of robotics. Background technique [0002] Traditional industrial robots are mainly used in structured environments. The working mode is relatively fixed and generally has high rigidity. This can not only ensure the precise positioning of the actuator and the precise tracking of the motion trajectory, but also perform repetitive tasks efficiently. Work. [0003] With the rapid development of the robot industry, the application field of robots is constantly expanding, and new requirements are put forward for its performance in all aspects. From the perspective of bionics, when the human musculoskeletal system is subjected to external forces, it can quickly adjust its own rigidity according to its deformation, so as to adapt to different working environments. Therefore, it is of great ...
