Problems solved by technology

This setting method leads to a slow deformation speed of the flexible finger, and when the deformation is large, it is easy to generate a large amount of shaking during the deformation process, and the strength is insufficient, so it cannot adapt to the problem of quickly grabbing objects of different shapes and sizes during the application process.

Abstract

The invention discloses a mold and a method for manufacturing a flexible robot. The mold comprises an upper mold, a lower mold, a bottom mold and a waved part, wherein the upper mold is as high as thelower mold; a positioning groove is formed in the upper mold; a positioning bulge matched with the positioning groove is formed in the lower mold; a left positioning step and a right positioning stepare arranged on the waved part; two positioning grooves matched with the left positioning step and the right positioning step are respectively arranged on the lower mold; the overall height of the waved part is lower than that of the upper mold. The mold disclosed by the invention is simple in structure, convenient to use, low in cost and high in effectiveness, in addition, the flexible robot manufactured by using the mold has special arrangement of an air cavity of a bow-like shape, has relatively high deformation speeds when being aerated and released, and can be applied to fields such as rapid movement and rapid grasping.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a robot mold and a method, in particular to a mold and a method for manufacturing a soft robot. Background technique [0002] In the field of industrial automation, the grasping action at the end of the robotic arm is mainly completed by rigid mechanical grippers or vacuum suction cups. However, due to the difficulty in controlling the strength of rigid mechanical grippers, it is difficult to achieve non-destructive grasping of soft and fragile objects. It is difficult for vacuum suction cups to adapt to irregular objects with rough surfaces and holes during handling. This leads to limitations in both application scenarios. The flexible manipulator includes flexible fingers and a fixed base. The flexible fingers are made of elastic materials, which can grasp soft and fragile objects without causing damage to the objects themselves. [0003] In the prior art, patent documents such as "a pneumatic soft gripping device" (CN104...
