Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of equipment mobility technology, specifically to a hexapod bionic mobile device and robot. Background Technology
[0002] Existing equipment is moved by wheels or tracks. When traveling on relatively flat terrain, wheeled travel can achieve a faster and more stable speed. However, when traveling on uneven terrain, the machine's energy consumption will increase significantly. If it encounters soft or extremely uneven terrain, the wheels will also lose their effectiveness. Although tracked travel has some adaptability to such terrain, its mobility is still very poor and it is prone to large swaying. Power transmission line projects are located in mountainous terrain with poor transportation conditions, rugged or muddy roads, and often have steps or protruding rocks. Therefore, traditional wheeled or tracked mobile devices are difficult to carry out construction under such road conditions.
[0003] Therefore, a new mobility device is needed to solve the problem of unstable movement of wheeled or tracked vehicles in complex terrain. Summary of the Invention

The hydraulic motor 170 is connected to the wheel mounting seat 160 and is connected to the drive wheel 10-1 via a transmission connection. The drive wheel 10-1 and the driven wheel 10-2 are connected via a connecting shaft.
[0047] Preferably, the front and rear ends of the wheeled chassis 1 are provided with two sets of wheels. Each set of wheels consists of a drive wheel 10-1 and a driven wheel 10-2. The two wheels can enable the wheeled chassis 1 to have a greater load-bearing capacity, and differential steering can be achieved by controlling the hydraulic motor 170.
[0048] like Figure 1As shown, the outrigger mechanism 120 includes front and rear outrigger structures and a middle outrigger structure. The front and rear straight outrigger structures are located at the ends of the six-legged frame 2, and the middle outrigger structure is located in the middle of the six-legged frame 2. Each outrigger mechanism 120 can be controlled to move independently. When the upper part of the six-legged frame 2 needs to rotate, the entire outrigger 120 can be retracted beyond the six-legged frame 2 to avoid interference.
[0049] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the front and rear outrigger structure includes a first outrigger seat 121A, a thigh structure, a lower leg structure, an outrigger steering cylinder 190, and a walking foot 126. The first outrigger seat 121A is fixedly connected to the six-leg frame 2. The tail of the outrigger steering cylinder 190 is connected to the six-leg frame 2. The telescopic rod of the outrigger steering cylinder 190 is connected to the outrigger seat 130. The thigh structure is installed in the first outrigger seat 121A, the lower leg structure is installed in the thigh structure, and the walking foot 126 is disposed in the lower leg structure. The thigh structure, the lower leg structure, and the walking foot 126 are rotatably connected to each other.
[0050] There are four first leg supports 121A, which are set in pairs at the front and rear ends of the six-legged frame 2, and two second leg supports 121B, which are set on both sides of the six-legged frame 2.
[0051] The first outrigger seat 121A includes a first connecting end 121-1, a second connecting end 121-2, a third connecting end 121-3, and a fourth connecting end 121-4. The first connecting end 121-1 is connected to the six-leg frame 2, the second connecting end 121-2 is connected to the head of the outrigger steering cylinder 190, the third connecting end 121-3 is connected to the thigh, and the fourth connecting end 121-4 is connected to the tail of the thigh cylinder 122.
[0052] like Figure 2 As shown, the thigh structure includes a thigh body 123 and a thigh cylinder 122, and the lower leg structure includes a lower leg body 125 and a lower leg cylinder 124. One end of the thigh body 123 is connected to the head of the thigh cylinder 122, a third connecting end 121-3 is connected to the thigh, and a fourth connecting end 121-4 is connected to the tail of the thigh cylinder 122, so that the thigh body 123 can rotate around the first leg seat 121A. The other end of the thigh body 123 is rotatably connected to the lower leg body 125. The thigh body 123 is connected to the tail of the lower leg cylinder 124, and the top of the lower leg body 125 is connected to the head of the lower leg cylinder 124, so that the lower leg body 125 can move around the thigh body 123. The bottom of the lower leg body 125 is rotatably provided with a walking foot 126, so that the walking foot 126 can rotate around the lower leg body 125.
[0053] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the intermediate support leg structure is the same as the front and rear support leg structures, except for the specific structure of the support leg seat. The connection method and structure of the thigh structure, lower leg structure and walking foot are the same.
[0054] The intermediate support leg structure includes a second support leg seat 121B, a thigh structure, a lower leg structure, and a walking foot 126. The second support leg seat 121B is fixedly connected to the six-legged frame 2. The thigh structure is installed in the second support leg seat 121B, the lower leg structure is installed in the thigh structure, and the walking foot 126 is disposed in the smaller structure. The second support leg seat 121B, the thigh structure, the lower leg structure, and the walking foot 126 are rotatably connected to each other.
[0055] The second leg seat 121B includes a fifth connecting end 121B-1 and a sixth connecting end 121B-2. The fifth connecting end 121B-1 is connected to the thigh body 123, and the sixth connecting end 121B-2 is connected to the tail of the thigh cylinder 122.
[0056] The thigh structure includes a thigh body 123 and a thigh cylinder 122, and the lower leg structure includes a lower leg body 125 and a lower leg cylinder 124. One end of the thigh body 123 is connected to the head of the thigh cylinder 122, a fifth connecting end 121B-1 is connected to the thigh body 123, and a sixth connecting end 121B-2 is connected to the tail of the thigh cylinder 122, so that the thigh body 123 can rotate around the first leg seat 121A. The other end of the thigh body 123 is rotatably connected to the lower leg body 125. The thigh body 123 is connected to the tail of the lower leg cylinder 124, and the top of the lower leg body 125 is connected to the head of the lower leg cylinder 124, so that the lower leg body 125 can move around the thigh body 123. The bottom of the lower leg body 125 is rotatably provided with a walking foot 126, so that the walking foot 126 can rotate around the lower leg body 125.
[0057] The thigh cylinder 122, the lower leg cylinder 124, and the outrigger steering cylinder 190 are digital cylinders. By using digital cylinders, the movement distance of each part of the outrigger can be controlled more precisely, and the position status of the outrigger can be better fed back.
[0058] Working principle:
[0059] When the six-legged bionic mobile device walks on flat ground using wheels, the hydraulic cylinders on the outriggers 120 are controlled to retract the outriggers 120, so that the wheel assembly contacts the ground. The drilling rig is driven to walk by the hydraulic motor 170, and the wheel steering cylinder 150 is used to achieve steering.
[0060] When the six-legged bionic mobile device moves in mountainous terrain using the bionic outrigger mechanism 120, the outriggers 120 are opened by controlling the hydraulic cylinders on the outrigger mechanism 120, allowing all six outriggers 120 to contact the ground. The drilling rig then adopts a triangular gait for movement: the six bionic outrigger mechanisms 120 are divided into two symmetrical groups. One group consists of the outrigger mechanism 1201 at the front end and the outrigger mechanism 1202 at the rear end on one side of the drilling rig, and the outrigger mechanism 1203 on the other side. The remaining three outrigger mechanisms form the other group. Each group of outrigger mechanisms 120 forms a tripod, stabilizing the drilling rig and facilitating movement. At this time, one set of outrigger mechanisms 120 is raised while the other set remains stationary on the ground. The weight of the machine is concentrated on the tripod formed by the stationary outrigger mechanism 120. Subsequently, the stationary outrigger mechanism 120 bends, causing the machine's center of gravity to shift forward while the center of gravity projection remains within the tripod. Then, the raised outrigger mechanism 120 lands, and the other set of outrigger mechanisms 120 is quickly raised and suspended in the air. The action of the previous set is repeated, alternating between them, to achieve long-distance movement of the drilling rig. When the outrigger mechanism 120 is raised, the machine can be turned by controlling the outrigger steering cylinders 190 on the front and rear outrigger mechanisms 120 to shift the angle of the raised outrigger.
[0061] Example 2
[0062] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a robot with a mobile device includes a six-legged bionic mobile device and a drilling rig mounted on the six-legged bionic mobile device. The upper end of the six-legged frame 2 is equipped with a drilling execution device for drilling, a power unit for providing power, and drilling auxiliary devices for other functions, including a propulsion beam 5, a water tank 4, a control console 3, an engine 8, a diesel tank 7, a hydraulic oil tank 6, and a dust collector 9.

[0063] When using other large, medium or even small equipment to be moved besides drilling rigs, the equipment to be moved can be installed and fixed on the six-legged frame 2. The installation and fixing method is the existing fixing method. This invention does not improve the installation and fixing method, so it will not be described in detail.
