Abstract

The invention provides a steerable rope-pulled soft robot and a control method, including a soft robot, a steering gear loading platform, a steering gear and a traction rope. The two ends of the soft robot in the shape of a cuboid are the left end of the soft robot fuselage and the soft body respectively. At the right end of the robot body, the steering gear loading platform is fixed at the center of the body of the software robot, and the upper and side surfaces of the steering gear loading platform are provided with interfaces for fixing the steering gear; the steering gear has six; the traction rope has Six, each traction rope corresponds to a steering gear, the traction rope is fixed on the upper, bottom and side of the robot software through the upper, bottom and side pins of the robot software, in a "U" shape and both ends are connected with the corresponding steering gear; this The invention provides a steerable rope-pulled soft robot and a control method, which can realize straight and curved travel and direction change.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of shaft-type rope-drawn soft robots, in particular to a steerable rope-drawn soft robot and a control method. Background technique [0002] Soft robots are a new type of soft robots that can adapt to various unstructured environments and interact with humans more safely. At present, the soft robots with relatively complete technology are mainly aerodynamic methods, and the research on soft robots with rope traction is still not perfect. The rope traction method is a control method that controls the rotation of the small steering gear through the program, drives the traction rope on the body to control the movement of the body, and mostly adopts the design of the rear drive. In order to ensure the free crawling of the rope-tracted soft robot, it is necessary to integrate the drive module, the transmission mechanism and the soft robot body. In addition, a large number of existing soft crawling robots mostly walk in a...
