Abstract

The invention relates to an integrated active and passive variable stiffness joint based on a cam mechanism, which comprises a joint active and passive stiffness adjustment module, a joint power drive module, a joint control feedback module and a frame which are sequentially connected together; the joint active and passive stiffness adjustment module includes Gears, racks, roller frames, springs, spring sleeve rods, cam output discs, sliders, and shells of variable stiffness modules; joint power drive modules include hollow torque motors, harmonic reducers, and stiffness adjustment motors; joint control modules include magnetic encoding encoders, encoder brackets, control boards, and control board mounting posts. The present invention has a reasonable design, and adopts the way of the planar disc-shaped groove cam mechanism to configure the spring to realize the active and passive adjustment of the joint stiffness. The cam mechanism is used to make the joint more compact. The joint power drive module and the joint active and passive stiffness adjustment module can be disassembled as a separate Modules are used, easy to install and use, and have strong versatility.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of intelligent robots, in particular to an integrated active and passive variable stiffness joint based on a cam mechanism. Background technique [0002] As the core components of robotic arms and legged robots, joints are the key to ensuring their superior motion stability and environmental adaptability. Traditional rigid joints use rigid parts, which have a simple structure, easy installation, and relatively simple joint drive control, but the joint stiffness is fixed, which leads to the robot's environmental adaptability when it is in an unstructured workspace or facing a complex terrain environment. Poor performance, and the presence of external disturbances in the working process, it is easy to impact the robot joints and even cause irreparable damage to the sensitive components inside the body. The joints are raised. [0003] At present, the variable stiffness joints can be roughly divided into two c...
