DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The technical scheme in the embodiment of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiment of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiment is only a part of the embodiment of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiment of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , is an angular velocity measurement device imitating a human five-finger dexterous hand provided by an embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the measuring device 100 may include:

[0032] A support frame, the support frame comprising a first connecting rod 1 and a second connecting rod 2, wherein the first connecting rod 1 and the second connecting rod 2 are connected at their respective first ends so that a target angle is formed between the first connecting rod 1 and the second connecting rod 2;

[0033] A first infrared timing trigger component 3, wherein the first infrared timing trigger component 3 is connected to the second end of the first connecting rod 1;

[0034] A second infrared timing trigger component 4, wherein the second infrared timing trigger component 4 is connected to the second end of the second connecting rod 2;

[0035] A control component, the control component is connected to the support frame, and the control component is communicably connected to the first infrared timing trigger component 3 and the second infrared timing trigger component 4;

[0036] The support frame is used to be arranged at a target position beside the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200 whose angular velocity is to be measured in a non-contact manner, so that the movement trajectory of the fingers of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200 from the movement starting point to the movement ending point passes through the first infrared timing trigger component 3 and the second infrared timing trigger component 4, and the first infrared timing trigger component 3 and the second infrared timing trigger component 4 can be triggered during the movement of the fingers of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200;

[0037] The control component is used to perform the following operations:

[0038] Recording the moment when the finger of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200 triggers the first infrared timing trigger component 3 as the starting timing moment;

[0039] Recording the moment when the finger of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200 triggers the second infrared timing trigger component 4 as the end timing moment;

[0040] Calculate the time difference between the end timing moment and the start timing moment;

[0041] The angular velocity of the fingers of the anthropomorphic five-finger dexterous hand 200 is obtained by using the time difference and the target angle.

[0042] The angular velocity measuring device 100 of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand provided in the embodiment of the present application can measure the angular velocity without changing the structure of the five-finger dexterous hand, thereby reducing the measurement cost and complexity. The angular velocity of the five-finger dexterous hand can be measured wirelessly, and can be set up next to the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200 whose angular velocity is to be measured in a contactless manner. Since there is no need to directly contact the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200 and no need to physically contact the mechanical parts, interference or wear on the mechanical structure is prevented, and the entire installation and maintenance process is simplified.

[0043] The device has excellent measurement accuracy and fast response speed, and can accurately monitor the dynamic movement of the five-fingered dexterous hand, ensuring the accurate measurement of angular velocity.

[0044] At the same time, the installation process of the device is very convenient. It does not require complicated modifications to the five-finger dexterous hand, nor does it increase the weight or volume burden of the manipulator, which is extremely important for maintaining the manipulator's operational performance and flexibility.

[0045] In addition, the device is immune to mechanical vibration and noise, and it can produce more stable and reliable measurement data, which is very important for accurate dynamic performance analysis and effective motion control. It is suitable for rapid diagnosis and real-time monitoring, providing effective technical support for robot motion control.

[0046] In order to facilitate the adjustment of the target angle according to the actual use scenario and ensure that the first infrared timing trigger component 3 and the second infrared timing trigger component 4 can be triggered during the finger movement of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200, the embodiment of the present application can also provide that the first end of each of the first connecting rod 1 and the second connecting rod 2 is connected through a rotating shaft and a locking component to adjust the target angle between the first connecting rod 1 and the second connecting rod 2. When the finger movement range of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200 in the use scenario is large, the target angle can be appropriately increased so that the interval between the triggering of the first infrared timing trigger component 3 and the second infrared timing trigger component 4 is larger, which can improve the measurement accuracy of the angular velocity.

[0047] In order to conveniently display the angular velocity and target angle obtained by the solution, the embodiment of the present application may also provide a display 5, the display 5 is connected to the support frame, the display 5 is communicatively connected to the control component, and the display 5 is used to display the angular velocity. Further, the control component is also used to obtain the target angle, and the display 5 is also used to display the target angle.

[0048] In order to facilitate the control of the switches of the various components of the device, the embodiment of the present application may also provide a switch button 6, and the switch button 6 is connected to the support frame.

[0049] When the angular velocity measurement device 100 of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand provided in the embodiment of the present application is used, the host computer 300 of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200 sends a command. After the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200 responds to the command, the angular velocity measurement device 100 can display the angular velocity of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200.

[0050] The angular velocity measuring device 100 of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand comprises a first infrared timing trigger component 3, a first connecting rod 1, a switch button 6, a control component, a display screen, a second connecting rod 2, and a second infrared timing trigger component 4. The first infrared timing trigger component 3 identifies the starting position of the angular velocity of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200 by infrared rays. In practical applications, one of the connecting rods can be used as a fixed seat base connecting rod, and the other connecting rod can be used as a rotatable connecting rod to facilitate the adjustment of the angle between the two connecting rods. The angular velocity measuring electronic device is started by the switch button 6. The first connecting rod 1 and the second connecting rod 2 can be rotated to the required angle. The end position of the movement of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200 is identified by the second infrared timing trigger component 4, and the time from the start position to the end position of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200 is obtained, and the angular velocity of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200 is further calculated and displayed digitally on the display 5.

[0051] like Figure 3 As shown, the method for using the angular velocity measuring device of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand provided in the embodiment of the present application is specifically operated as follows: fix the angular velocity measuring device 100 of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand at a suitable position beside the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200. During installation, it is necessary to ensure that the infrared emission ports of the first infrared timing trigger component 3 and the second infrared timing trigger component 4 are aligned with the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200, so that the first infrared timing trigger component 3 and the second infrared timing trigger component 4 can be triggered during the movement of the fingers of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200. Adjust the first connecting rod 1 and the second connecting rod 2 to the target angle, and the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200 can be recognized by the first infrared timing trigger component 3 after the movement starts, and the moment when the first infrared timing trigger component 3 is triggered is used as the starting moment. After the continuous movement of the fingers of the humanoid five-finger dexterous hand 200 is recognized by the second infrared timing trigger component 4, the moment when the second infrared timing trigger component 4 is triggered can be used as the ending moment.

[0052] Calculate the time difference between the end time and the start time, that is, the time period between the first infrared timing trigger component 3 and the second infrared timing trigger component 4 during the finger movement. Since the target angle between the first infrared timing trigger component 3 and the second infrared timing trigger component 4 has been locked in advance, the time for the finger to move the target angle is the time difference. The target angle is divided by the time difference to obtain the angular velocity of the finger movement of the anthropomorphic five-finger dexterous hand 200.

[0053] In summary, the angular velocity measurement device of the anthropomorphic five-finger dexterous hand provided in this application adopts non-contact measurement. The infrared sensor can perform measurements without contacting the mechanical structure of the five-finger dexterous hand, avoiding interference and wear on the mechanical structure, while also reducing the complexity of installation and maintenance. With high precision and high response speed, infrared sensors usually have high measurement accuracy and fast response time, and can accurately capture the rapid movement of the five-finger dexterous hand, thereby providing accurate angular velocity measurement. Easy to install and deploy, the installation of infrared sensors is relatively simple, and does not require large-scale modification of the five-finger dexterous hand, nor does it require additional weight or volume to be added to the manipulator, which is crucial to maintaining the performance and flexibility of the manipulator. Data stability, since infrared measurements are not affected by mechanical vibration and noise, more stable and reliable data can be provided, which is crucial for dynamic performance analysis and control.

[0054] In addition, the device provided by the embodiment of the present application can improve the safety of measurement. The non-contact measurement reduces the potential contact between the sensor and the manipulator, and reduces the safety risks caused by sensor failure or damage. The reliability of the system can be enhanced. The durability and stability of the infrared sensor help to improve the reliability of the entire measurement system and reduce system failures caused by sensor problems. It can be applied to a variety of environments. The infrared sensor can work under various lighting conditions, including low-light or no-light environments, which allows them to maintain performance in different working environments. It is also easy to integrate and expand. The infrared sensor can be easily integrated into the existing robot control system and can be combined with other sensor systems (such as vision systems) to provide more comprehensive performance monitoring.

[0055] It can reduce costs. Compared with the need to install additional contact sensors on the robot, the cost of infrared sensors is usually lower, especially when deployed on a large scale. This cost advantage is more obvious.

[0056] Improve measurement flexibility. The infrared sensor can measure any part of the five-fingered dexterous hand as long as the part can reflect infrared light, which provides greater flexibility for measurement.

[0057] Support remote monitoring, infrared sensors can be combined with wireless transmission technology to achieve remote monitoring and data analysis, which is of great significance for remote operation and maintenance.

[0058] In summary, the device for measuring the angular velocity of the five-fingered dexterous hand using infrared not only solves the technical problems of traditional measurement methods, but also brings a series of additional advantages, making the device more attractive in practical applications.
