Abstract

The invention relates to a redundant mechanical arm based on a tensegrity structure, and belongs to the technical field of robots. The redundant mechanical arm comprises a base, a first joint, a second joint and a clamping jaw; the base is rotatably connected with the first joint to form the rotational freedom; structures of the first joint and the second joint are the same, joints comprise staticplatforms, movable platforms, inhaul cables, driving parts and rigidity adjustment parts, the driving parts are arranged on the static platforms, the driving parts are connected with the movable platforms through the inhaul cables, and the rigidity adjustment parts are used for adjusting the rigidity of the joints; and the movable platform of the first joint is fixedly connected with the static platform of the second joint, and the clamping jaw is arranged on the movable platform of the second joint. By combining the advantages of a rigid body structure and a soft body structure, the redundant mechanical arm based on the tensegrity structure has the advantages of light mass, high strength, good flexibility, high safety, flexible motion, large working space, high response speed and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a redundant mechanical arm based on a tensioned integral structure, which belongs to the technical field of robots. Background technique [0002] Traditional manipulators can usually be divided into serial manipulators and parallel manipulators. The series manipulator is formed by a series of connecting rods connected in series through rotating joints or moving joints. It is an open kinematic chain robot, which has the advantages of simple structure, decoupling of motion between joints, and large working space; the parallel manipulator consists of an up and down motion platform It is composed of two or more motion branch chains, and one or more closed-loop mechanisms are formed between the motion platform and the motion branch chains, which have the advantages of high rigidity, high precision, and high speed. Both serial manipulators and parallel manipulators have their own characteristics and applicable occasions, and it is d...
