Energy recovery type wireless software robot and motion method

Abstract

Provided are en energy recovery type wireless software robot and a motion method thereof. The robot comprises a base plane, flexible foot areas disposed at the bottom of the base plane and a power supply module, energy conversion devices and a control module which are disposed at the top of the base plane, and the energy conversion devices are located at the two sides of the upper portions of theflexible foot areas; a main movement structure is a single row or multiple rows of the flexible foot areas at certain angles with the base plane, the energy conversion devices generate vibrations of acertain frequency and transmit the vibrations to the flexible foot areas through the regulation of the control module, so that the flexible foot areas collide back and forth with contact surfaces, and the robot has a forward motion behavior under the actions of an elastic force and a ground friction; a motion mechanism of the robot has a simple shape and is convenient to manufacture, energy recovery can be achieved during the movement, and very small energy input needed can achieve a fast motion behavior; due to the fact that the movement structure of the robot uses a flexible material, the robot has good environmental adaptability and human-computer interaction security.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of robots, in particular to an energy recovery type wireless soft robot and a movement method. Background technique [0002] Traditional robots are mostly made of steel and other metals, which usually have particularly high strength and hardness. Through reasonable design, they can achieve very fast movement speed and extremely fine movement precision. The role of traditional robots in our daily life is very important, and it has realized many functions that are difficult to achieve only by humans. However, traditional robots also have many shortcomings that are difficult to overcome at present, such as excessive strength and hardness. The manufacture of the robot itself involves a precision machining process that integrates complex technologies such as control and sensing. At the same time, due to the integration of control, sensing and other parts, most traditional robots are very bulky and bulky, which greatly limi...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Most of the existing soft robots use fluid drive, shape memory polymer deformation, and mammalian tendon deformation. Most of these methods require extremely harsh driving conditions and relatively large driving equipment, and can only achieve relatively slow motion behavior. , and these shortcomings greatly limit the application of soft robots in real life
