Abstract

The invention relates to the field of soft crawling robots, and provides a magnetically controlled variable friction and variable leg length soft crawling robot, including a variable friction mechanism and a variable leg length mechanism. The variable friction mechanism includes a bracket, a torsion spring, a magnet, and an iron sheet. , variable friction plate, rubber sheet, the variable leg length mechanism includes flexible bracket, shape memory alloy wire winding bracket, shape memory alloy wire, guide rail frame, shape memory alloy spring, stainless steel guide tube, metal spring, the variable friction mechanism After connecting with the variable leg length mechanism through the top bracket of the flexible bracket, a retractable leg mechanism is formed, and the two retractable leg mechanisms are stacked and adhered up and down to form a flexible crawling robot. The invention utilizes the magnetic control variable friction structure to improve the power density and the response speed of the variable friction mechanism; uses the shape memory alloy driving method to achieve the goal of adjustable leg length of the robot, so as to improve the robot's ability to crawl over obstacles for complex terrain and to achieve variable load capacity. tune.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of soft crawling robots, in particular to a soft crawling robot with variable friction and variable leg length by magnetic control. Background technique [0002] The motion control of the soft robot is mainly composed of two parts: the leg variable friction mechanism and the body telescopic mechanism. There are many driving methods for the existing robot's variable friction mechanism and body telescopic mechanism, and different driving methods can produce different effects. [0003] Motor, air pressure and hydraulic drive: The variable friction and telescopic drive of the crawling robot can be realized through motor, air pressure and hydraulic pressure. However, due to the low power density of the motor, air pressure and hydraulic pressure, the structure of the soft robot is large and noisy. [0004] Intelligent material drive: By using some new intelligent materials, such as shape memory polymer, shape memory alloy...
