Abstract

The invention discloses a gas-liquid reversible transformation type soft manipulator. The gas-liquid reversible transformation type soft manipulator comprises a flange and a soft finger installed on the flange. The soft finger comprises a plurality of soft joints, a flexible skeleton, a cooling inlet and a cooling outlet. The flexible skeleton is connected to the flange, the soft joints are sequentially arranged on the surfaces of the two sides of the flexible skeleton, and the flexible skeleton is embedded in the middles of the soft joints. Each soft joint comprises two gas-liquid deformation assemblies. Each gas-liquid deformation assembly comprises a cavity container, a flexible strain sensor, a heating layer, a cooling layer and a soft wall, wherein the heating layer, the cooling layer and the cavity container are sequentially arranged on the outer side surface of the flexible skeleton outwards, and the cavity container comprises a closed cavity, a flexible temperature sensor and a flexible pressure sensor. According to the gas-liquid reversible transformation type soft manipulator, the flexible manipulator structure, driving and sensing integrated design and passive driving are achieved, the gas-liquid reversible transformation type soft manipulator has the advantages of being large in output force, easy to deform, high in loading capacity, good in flexibility and the like, the output characteristic and the integration degree of the soft manipulator can be improved, and application is wide.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a soft manipulator in the field of robots, in particular to a gas-liquid reversible transformation soft manipulator. Background technique [0002] With the development of economy and society, robot technology is developing towards the continuum and soft robot with unlimited degrees of freedom, which can be continuously deformed, and has the characteristics of flexibility and good safety of human-computer interaction. However, the existing soft robots have disadvantages such as relying on power sources such as motors, air sources or hydraulic stations, complex winding / pipe layout, high noise, weak load capacity, small deformation, high driving voltage, or large system volume and mass. Meet the application requirements of human-machine-material integration and mobile operation. Contents of the invention [0003] In order to overcome the disadvantages of existing soft manipulators driven by new materials such as ropes, air pres...
