Soft-body robot capable of penetrating through cracks for detection in disaster relief for earthquakes

Abstract

The invention relates to a soft-body robot capable of penetrating through cracks for detection in disaster relief for earthquakes, and relates to the technical field of soft-body robots. The soft-bodyrobot comprises a main trunk and a detecting box; acting detecting limbs are arranged on two sides of the main trunk; air outlet valves are arranged on the sides, far away from the central lines of the main trunk, of the upper ends of the acting detecting limbs; the detecting box is inlaid in the upper end of the main trunk; and the ends, far away from the central lines of the main trunk, of theacting detecting limbs are connected with tips. The soft-body robot has the beneficial effects as follows: the main trunk and the acting detecting limbs are connected through the first air inlet valves, so that the air inlet state and the air bleeding state of the main trunk and the acting detecting limbs do not interfere with each other; air inlet and air bleeding of the main trunk can be realized by the aid of a connecting main valve and a third air inlet pipe. When the rescue environment at the front end is harsh and the crack is relatively small, the height of the main trunk can be reducedthrough air bleeding, when an object is pressed by a foreign matter, the main trunk can be expanded through air inlet, and the foreign matter can be jacked by the main trunk, so that the pressed object can be rescued.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of soft robots, in particular to a soft robot that can detect through gaps in earthquake relief. Background technique [0002] At present, robot technology has been applied to fields including industry, civil, military, etc. However, traditional robots have very large structures and their components often use rigid structures, which make it difficult to autonomously pass through narrow spaces and complex Therefore, soft robots have been greatly favored in recent years. It is a very complex product in the field of robotics. Because of its softness and deformability, soft robots can produce unlimited freedom of movement. It is beyond the reach of traditional robots. [0003] A software quadruped crawling robot is disclosed in the Chinese invention patent application publication specification CN105346619 A. Although the software quadruped crawling robot uses a Bluetooth communication module and a host computer...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a soft robot that can pass through gaps for detection in earthquake relief, so as to solve the problem of a soft quadruped crawling robot disclosed in the Chinese invention patent application publication specification CN105346619 A proposed in the above background technology. Although the soft four-legged crawling robot uses the Bluetooth communication module and the host computer control module to control the movement of the robot at the remote end, the robot can be used in military fields such as obstacle removal, disaster relief, and geological exploration. The number of pneumatic conduit connections is large, and it is directly exposed on the outside and connected to a pneumatic device in a different place. This will cause the pneumatic conduit to come into contact with other external objects during the movement of the robot, which will hinder the movement of the robot. , and the robot cannot quickly detect the environmental conditions in front of it during the crawling process of disaster rescue, and the robot will directly advance to cause the problem of loss and damage
