[0036] When the landing system foot end 2 is on the slope, the servo cylinder 1 main cylinder ball end matches the foot rod connection module 213 posture activity, drives the ground contact foot pad 22 to adapt to the deflection of the lunar terrain curvature, and stably contacts the lunar surface. During this process, the hydraulic pipe 216 deflects with the servo cylinder 1, pulls or pushes the output rod 215, makes it deviate, and the output rod 215 and the hydraulic pipe 216 are in the uphill position, and the communication area of the hydraulic valve 2151 is reduced; the output is separated in the downhill position, and the communication area is increased. The lunar lander gravity makes the upper foot pad 21 and the ground contact foot pad 22 close to each other, compresses the telescopic liquid bag 223, the liquid in the inside enters the hydraulic pipe 216 to exhaust pressure, cooperates to constrain the servo cylinder 1 and the landing system foot end 2, enhances the stability, at the same time, the spring plug rod 221 is compressed, the magnetic top rod 2224 is magnetically attracted to the magnetic impact pipe 2222; when moving after staying, the servo cylinder 1 lifts the landing system foot end 2, the spring plug rod 221 and the telescopic liquid bag 223 are elastically reset, the telescopic liquid bag 223 sucks the liquid in the hydraulic pipe 216, makes the output rod 215 and the hydraulic pipe 216 restore the initial state, ensures that the landing system foot end 2 and the servo cylinder 1 reset in time, and moves stably, at the same time, the upper foot pad 21 and the ground contact foot pad 22 are separated, the magnetic top rod 2224 drives the magnetic impact pipe 2222 to move upwards, the magnetic impact pipe 2222 resets and hits the vibration plate 2221, and the mixed pattern 224 on the sole and the lower surface of the ground contact foot pad 22 are vibrated to remove the lunar dust.

[0037] In summary, through the coordinated work of the servo cylinder 1 and the landing system foot end 2, when the landing system foot end 2 is on the slope, the servo cylinder 1 main cylinder ball end cooperates with the foot rod connection module 213 posture activity, drives the ground contact foot pad 22 to adapt to the deflection of the lunar terrain curvature, and stably contacts the lunar surface. In this process, the hydraulic pipe 216 deflects with the servo cylinder 1, pulls or pushes the output rod 215 to make it deviate, and changes the communication area with the hydraulic valve 2151 according to the slope position when deviating. At the same time, the lander gravity makes the upper foot pad 21 and the ground contact foot pad 22 close to each other, compresses the telescopic liquid bag 223, and the liquid in the telescopic liquid bag 223 enters the hydraulic pipe 216 to output the rod 215. The dynamic adjustment of this hydraulic system cooperates with the lander gravity and the terrain factors to accurately and cooperatively constrain the servo cylinder 1 and the landing system foot end 2. The stability of the landing system foot end 2 is enhanced when the landing system foot end 2 is on the complex slope terrain, which effectively avoids the problems of sliding and tilting of the foot pad during the residence process due to attitude out of control, and ensures the safety and reliability of the lander when the lander is on the slope. In addition, when moving after residence, the telescopic liquid bag 223 will suck the safety liquid in the hydraulic pipe 216 under the elastic reset action of the spring plug rod 221 and the telescopic liquid bag 223, so that the output rod 215 and the hydraulic pipe 216 return to the initial state, ensure that the landing system foot end 2 and the servo cylinder 1 reset in time, overcome the reset obstacles in the low gravity and high powder environment, improve the mobility and operation efficiency of the lander, and at the same time, when the upper foot pad 21 and the ground contact foot pad 22 are separated, the magnetic attraction top rod 2224 will drive the magnetic attraction impact pipe 2222 to move up, and after breaking through the magnetic attraction force field, the magnetic attraction impact pipe 2222 resets to impact the vibration plate 2221, so as to vibrate the lunar dust attached to the sole mixed pattern 224 and the lower surface of the ground contact foot pad 22, keep the foot pad clean, and maintain good performance.

[0038] As an embodiment of the present application, as Figure 2As shown, the upper surface of the ground-touching foot pad 22 is fixed with at least one spring plug 221 and at least one isolation sleeve 222 along the axial annular array on the side of the telescopic liquid bag 223, and the spring plug 221 and the isolation sleeve 222 are distributed at intervals. The spring plug 221 is composed of a plug and a spring sleeved on the plug, and the upper end of the plug is slidably inserted into the insertion hole defined on the bottom surface of the upper foot pad 21 in cooperation with the spring. The inside of the isolation sleeve 222 is provided with a convex space, and a net-shaped vibration plate 2221 is fixedly arranged below the convex space, and the inside of the isolation sleeve 222 is slidably constrained by a reset spring 2223 above the vibration plate 2221, and a magnetic impact pipe 2222 is arranged in the inside of the isolation sleeve 222. The upper end of the magnetic impact pipe 2222 penetrates out of the isolation sleeve 222, and a magnet is arranged in the inside of the magnetic impact pipe 2222 and isolated from the outside. A magnetic top rod 2224 is slidably inserted between the inside of the magnetic impact pipe 2222 and the magnet, the lower end of the magnetic top rod 2224 is provided with a magnet, and the upper end is fixed to the bottom surface of the upper foot pad 21. The space where the spring plug 221, the isolation sleeve 222 and the telescopic liquid bag 223 are located above the ground-touching foot pad 22 is isolated from the outside environment by the isolation sleeve 23. The bottom surface of the ground-touching foot pad 22 is integrally provided with a sole mixed pattern 224, which includes a circumferentially radiating main pattern and a central annular protrusion. The thickness of the main pattern is 1 / 14-1 / 13 of the height of the foot pad, and the outer edge of the main pattern adopts an equilateral triangle array structure with an apex angle of 60°, and a composite circular arc-equal leg trapezoid-circular topological unit is constructed in the middle region.

[0039] During operation, at the moment of landing, the servo cylinder 1 adjusts the attitude and speed of the lander, and the lower end of the main cylinder is connected to the foot rod connection module 213 through the spherical structure and the spherical pair connection groove, so that the foot end 2 of the landing system can flexibly adjust the angle to adapt to the terrain. The sole mixed pattern 224 on the bottom surface of the ground-touching foot pad 22 first touches the lunar surface. Since the outer edge of the main pattern is an equilateral triangle array and the middle part has a composite circular arc-equal leg trapezoid-circular topological unit, the anti-sinking property in a low-gravity high-powder soil environment can be enhanced, the tangential friction coefficient can be improved, and the lander can actively overcome obstacles and stay on a slope.

[0040] In summary, by setting the servo cylinder 1 and the foot end 2 of the landing system, the lander foot pad is divided into two functional units, the foot rod connecting part and the metal rubber composite foot pad. The two units disperse the stress of the ball pair and the two parts of the foot bottom, thereby effectively prolonging the service life of the components through the stress dispersion mechanism. At the same time, the bottom surface of the touchdown foot pad 22 adopts a mixed pattern design, which can achieve the balance between enhancing the grip and maintaining flexible movement by adjusting the friction coefficient. The depth and arrangement of the pattern are calculated by engineering, which can increase the friction resistance by about 30%-50% compared with the traditional non-pattern design, while ensuring that the sliding threshold is always in the safe movement interval, ensuring that the lander can be stably resident on the irregular terrain with a slope of ≤25°, and cooperating with the landing leg mechanism based on the electromechanical servo action system, the load can be actively penetrated on the complex medium surface such as lunar soil and Mars weathering layer, which expands the load detection space.

[0041] Working principle: When the lander lands, the servo cylinder 1 can adjust according to the attitude and speed of the lander. The spherical structure at the lower end of the main cylinder cooperates with the ball pair connecting groove of the foot rod connecting module 213, so that the foot end 2 of the landing system can flexibly adjust the angle to adapt to different landing terrains. At the same time, the bottom surface of the touchdown foot pad 22 contacts the lunar surface first. Because the main pattern thickness is 1 / 14-1 / 13 of the foot pad height, and the outer edge adopts an equilateral triangle array structure with a top angle of 60°, the composite circular arc-isosceles trapezoidal-circular topological unit in the middle area enhances the anti-sinking characteristics in the low-gravity high-powder environment, and establishes an optimized friction pair system to improve the tangential friction coefficient, thereby supporting the active obstacle crossing and slope residence functions of the lander. Among them, when the ratio of the array spacing to the triangle side length is 1:3 (the preferred parameter can be adjusted according to the actual situation), the continuous wedge effect can be formed, the sharp tip is preferentially penetrated into the powder layer to establish an initial support point, the triangle side produces lateral extrusion of the soil to form a dense area, and the arc structure guides the directional flow of the powder particles. The isosceles trapezoidal structure produces progressive soil compression, and the circular protrusion forms a discrete support point, and the three work together to build a multi-level bearing network.

[0042] And when the landing system foot end landing system foot end 2 is in slope residence, the posture of the servo cylinder 1 main cylinder ball end cooperating with the foot rod connecting module 213 will make the first contact with the moon surface, and the ground contact foot pad 22 will be deflected and adjusted according to the curvature of the moon surface, and will stably contact with the moon surface. During the adaptive activity adjustment of the servo cylinder 1, the hydraulic pipe 216 will be deflected, and will actively pull or push the hydraulic pipe 216, so that it is separated from the output rod 215 or shrinks. When the output rod 215 and the hydraulic pipe 216 are separated or shrunk, the output rod 215 will be offset to the servo cylinder 1 posture activity direction at the same time, wherein the shrunk output rod 215 and the hydraulic pipe 216 are in the uphill position of the residence slope, and the servo cylinder 1 ball end rotates along the internal ball pair connecting groove of the foot rod connecting module 213. At this time, the fan-shaped input port of the hydraulic valve 2151 opened at the lower end of the output rod 215 will gradually reduce the connected area from the positive connection state with the hydraulic fluid path 2141 (the connection port will be close to closed or closed at the maximum), and the output rod 215 and the hydraulic pipe 216 are separated and in the downhill position of the residence slope, and the servo cylinder 1 ball end rotates along the internal ball pair connecting groove of the foot rod connecting module 213. At this time, the fan-shaped input port of the hydraulic valve 2151 opened at the lower end of the output rod 215 will gradually increase the connected area from the positive connection state with the adapter ball seat 214. After the ground contact foot pad 22 is in contact with the moon surface, the gravity of the lander will be conducted to the landing system foot end 2 through the servo cylinder 1, and will cooperate with the moon to compress the upper foot pad 21 and the ground contact foot pad 22, so that the upper foot pad 21 and the ground contact foot pad 22 approach each other. The telescopic liquid bag 223 between the upper foot pad 21 and the ground contact foot pad 22 will be compressed, and then the safety liquid stored in the telescopic liquid bag 223 will enter the inside of the hydraulic valve 2151 through the shunt liquid channel 2131, the pipeline and the hydraulic fluid path 2141, and then will flow into the inside of the hydraulic pipe 216 through the hydraulic valve 2151, and will cooperate with the hydraulic pipe 216 to discharge the pressure of the output rod 215. Under the cooperative constraint of the servo cylinder 1 and the output rod 215 on the side of the hydraulic pipe 216, the residence posture of the servo cylinder 1 and the landing system foot end 2 will be shaped, so as to enhance the stability of the foot pad landing during the residence of the lander. At the same time, the spring plug rod 221 will be compressed, and the lower end of the magnetic attraction top rod 2224 will move downward along the inner wall of the magnetic attraction impact pipe 2222, and will be magnetically attracted with the magnet inside the magnetic attraction impact pipe 2222 at the lower end;

[0043] When moving after staying, as the servo electric cylinder 1 lifts the landing system foot end 2 upward, the compressed spring rod 221 and telescopic liquid bag 223 between the upper foot pad 21 and the ground contact foot pad 22 will quickly and elastically reset, wherein the reset telescopic liquid bag 223 will be sucked into the safety liquid inside the hydraulic pipe 216 through the bypass liquid channel 2131, the pipeline, the hydraulic liquid channel 2141 and the hydraulic valve channel 2151. As the safety liquid is extracted and under the action of the deadweight of the landing system foot end 2, the output rod 215 and the hydraulic pipe 216 in the stretched or compressed state will actively and quickly restore to their initial state, thereby avoiding the influence of factors that may hinder the reset of the landing system foot end 2 in a low-gravity and high-silt environment, ensuring that the landing system foot end 2 and the servo electric cylinder 1 can be restored to the initial connection state in time, so as to facilitate the functional stability of the lander when moving. The foot pads 22 are reset and separated, and the lower end of the magnetic top rod 2224 will drive the magnetic collision tube 2222 to move upward along the inner wall of the isolation sleeve 222, compressing the reset spring 2223, until the magnetic top rod 2224 is reset to the initial state (the magnetic attraction force of the lower end of the magnetic top rod 2224 on the magnetic collision tube 2222 is less than the restraining force of the isolation sleeve 222 and the reset spring 2223 on the magnetic collision tube 2222), and then the magnetic collision tube 22 Under the action of the reset spring 2223, 22 will quickly and elastically reset and collide with the vibration plate 2221, and the impact force of the lower end of the magnetic collision tube 2222 will be transmitted to the surface of the ground contact pad 22 through the isolation sleeve 222, and then transmitted to the mixed patterns 224 on the sole of the foot through the ground contact pad 22, to vibrate and remove the lunar dust that may be adsorbed between the mixed patterns 224 on the sole of the foot and on the lower surface of the ground contact pad 22, so as to prevent the lunar dust from affecting the normal movement of the lander foot pad.

[0044] It should be noted that after landing, if the current area is not the optimal area for conducting scientific operations or needs to be transferred after completing the task in this area, the landing leg equipped with the servo electric cylinder 1 can be used to realize the active crossing of the load across complex terrain through the extension and retraction movement of the landing leg and the differentiated friction torque generated by the anisotropy of the foot pad pattern.

[0045] It should be noted that after landing, if the target detection area is a slope, the lander can be moved to the slope area in the above manner. The foot pad designed with a mixed pattern has high adhesion and cooperates with the torque compensation algorithm of the servo system (torque compensation itself is already a conventional technical means in the control field. The specific implementation algorithm, such as the setting of compensation parameters, is within the scope of landing leg technology. This application only explains that the foot pad can cooperate with the algorithm to operate, so it will not be elaborated here), so that the load can be stably stationed on the slope.
