Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of expression robots, and particularly to an expression robot with a variable face shape. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, humanoid robots have received significant attention. However, most of the existing research focuses on the walking control and arm grasping of humanoid robots. In contrast, there is a lack of attention to advanced interaction functions. Advanced interaction functions mainly refer to the emotional interaction between humans and robots, such as typical expression interaction. Expression robots can establish a more expressive and realistic communication channel between humans and robots through changes in facial expressions.
[0003] However, existing expression robots generally have the following disadvantages: 1. They have a single function, a complex internal structure, and a low degree of freedom in expressions, unable to simulate advanced and diverse expressions and mouth shapes, resulting in very stiff expressions; 2. They do not have the ability to change face shapes and can only present a fixed and single appearance form, unable to adapt to the changing needs of various human face shapes; 3. They do not have the ability to change the color of the eye pupils, making it difficult to meet the application requirements of multiple scenarios. However, there is a lack of a multifunctional expression robot in the existing technology that has facial expression changes, multiple degrees of freedom in the mouth, facial deformation, and eye iris color change.

[0025] The principle of the present invention is as follows:
[0026] 1. Principle of pupil color change:
[0027] The middle part of the eyeball is a cylindrical cavity with a transparent eye membrane outside. The middle area of the eye membrane is blackened, representing the pupil. There is liquid in the cavity, and there are pigment particles of different sizes in the liquid. The positively charged ones are blue pigment particles, and the negatively charged ones are brown pigment particles. By applying voltages in different directions outside the cavity, the change of pupil color can be achieved. By adjusting the voltage magnitude, the change of pupil color depth can be achieved, such as Figure 22As shown below. The specific implementation process is as follows:
[0028] 1) Without power supply, the charged color particles move randomly in the cavity and the colors are mixed. At this time, the pupil color is gray, which is between brown and blue (as shown on the left); Figure 22 on the left);
[0029] 2) When a weak voltage is applied, the large charged color particles are not completely adsorbed. At this time, the color is lighter. When a positive voltage is applied, it is light brown, and when a negative voltage is applied, it is light blue (as shown in the middle); Figure 22 in the middle);
[0030] 3) When a relatively large voltage is applied, the large charged color particles are completely adsorbed. At this time, the color is darker. When a positive voltage is applied, it is dark brown, and when a negative voltage is applied, it is dark blue (as shown on the right). Figure 22 on the right).
[0031] 2. Expression driving principle:
[0032] 1) Eyebrows: A servo motor drives the eyebrow control piece through a four-bar mechanism to achieve the actions of raising and frowning the eyebrows, with a total of 4 degrees of freedom. For frowning, there are 2 degrees of freedom: Two eyebrow servo motors drive the connecting rods through the servo arms respectively, and then drive the eyebrow control piece to drive the facial skin to achieve the frowning movement. For raising the eyebrows, there are 2 degrees of freedom: Two servo motors drive the movable brackets through the servo arms respectively, and further drive the eyebrow control piece on the movable bracket to achieve the action of raising the eyebrows.
[0033] 2) Eyes: There are 4 degrees of freedom for the opening and closing of the eyelids and 4 degrees of freedom for the rotation of the eyeballs, with a total of 8 degrees of freedom.
[0034] 2.1) Opening and closing of the eyelids: Each of the upper and lower eyelids of the left and right eyes has 1 degree of freedom, with a total of 4 degrees of freedom: The eye servo motors drive the connecting rods through the servo arms respectively and drive the eyelids to drive their upper eyelids to achieve the movement of opening and closing the eyelids.
[0035] 2.2) Up and down rotation of the eyeballs: Each of the left and right eyes has 1 degree of freedom, with a total of 2 degrees of freedom:
[0036] Two eye servo motors drive the connecting rods through the servo arms respectively to drive the rotatable bracket, thereby driving the eyeball backplate to rotate around the horizontal axis to achieve the up and down movement of the eyeballs.
[0037] 2.3) Left and right rotation of the eyeballs: Each of the left and right eyes has 1 degree of freedom, with a total of 2 degrees of freedom: Two servo motors drive the slide rods through the servo arms respectively to drive the eye connecting rods, thereby driving the eyeball backplate to rotate around the vertical axis to achieve the left and right movement of the eyeballs. Here, since the fourth eye connecting rod is hinged to the eyeball backplate, the left and right rotation of the eyeballs does not affect the rotation of the fourth eye connecting rod, realizing the independent up and down and left and right rotations.
[0038] 3) Mouth: The upper lip has 4 degrees of freedom, the lower lip has 5 degrees of freedom, and the left and right lips have 4 degrees of freedom, with a total of 13 degrees of freedom
[0039] 3.1) Upper lip: A servo is used to drive a control piece through a connecting rod to achieve the upward lift and forward protrusion of the middle of the upper lip and the upward lift of the left and right sides of the lip. Each side of the upper lip has one degree of freedom, and the middle lip has two degrees of freedom, for a total of four degrees of freedom. For the upward lift of the left and right sides of the upper lip, each side has one degree of freedom. Two upper lip servos are used to drive the second mouth control piece through the servo arms to achieve the upward lift movement of the left and right sides of the lip. For the upward lift and forward protrusion of the middle lip, there are two degrees of freedom. The upward lift action is achieved by the second upper lip servo. The second upper lip servo drives the second upper lip servo arm to drive the second upper lip connecting rod, causing the first upper lip connecting rod to move upward under the limit of the upper lip slider, driving the first mouth control piece to lift. The forward protrusion action is achieved by the first upper lip servo. The first upper lip servo drives the first upper lip servo arm, causing the first upper lip connecting rod to move forward under the limit of the upper lip slider, driving the first mouth control piece to protrude forward.
[0040] 3.2) Lower lip: A servo is used to drive a control piece through a connecting rod to achieve the downward pull and forward protrusion of the middle of the lower lip and the downward pull of the left and right sides of the lip. Each side of the lower lip has one degree of freedom, the middle lip has two degrees of freedom, and the mouth opening and closing has one degree of freedom, for a total of five degrees of freedom. For the downward pull of the left and right sides of the lower lip, each side has one degree of freedom. Two lower lip servos are used to drive the fourth mouth control piece through the servo arms to achieve the downward pull movement of the left and right sides of the lip. For the downward pull and forward protrusion of the middle lip, there are two degrees of freedom. The downward pull action is achieved by the second lower lip servo. The second lower lip servo drives the second lower lip connecting rod through the second lower lip servo arm, causing the first lower lip connecting rod to move downward under the limit of the lower lip slider, driving the third mouth control piece to pull down, achieving the downward pull of the lower lip. The forward protrusion action is achieved by the first lower lip servo. The first lower lip servo drives the first lower lip servo arm, causing the first lower lip connecting rod to move forward under the limit of the lower lip slider, achieving the forward protrusion of the lower lip. For the mouth opening and closing, the fourth lower lip servo drives the lower lip fixed bracket, enabling the entire lower lip to rotate around the fourth lower lip servo.
[0041] 3.3) Left and right lips: Four servos are used in pairs to achieve the smiling, grinning, and pouting movements of the left and right cheeks. 4 degrees of freedom. Smiling: The upper servo drives the first mouth connecting rod through the servo arm to pull the fifth mouth control piece upward to the side to achieve the smiling action. Pouting: The lower servo drives the second mouth connecting rod through the servo arm to pull the fifth mouth control piece downward to the side to achieve the pouting movement. Grinning: The upper servo and the lower servo move simultaneously, driving the fifth mouth control piece to achieve the grinning movement.
[0042] 3. Facial deformation principle: It is achieved through a worm and worm gear structure
[0043] 1) Eyebrows and eyes: As Figure 21As shown, the horizontal expansion / narrowing of the eyebrows and eyes on the face is achieved through a worm and worm gear, and the control of the change in the distance between the eyes is mainly for horizontal expansion / contraction. The expansion / contraction of the ball head buckle drives the changes in the distances between the eyebrows and eyes and the changes in the left and right face shells. The worm and worm gear are both selected to be left-handed; the connection between the first eyebrow ball head buckle and the first eyebrow worm is selected to be left-handed (when looking from right to left, the worm rotates clockwise, and due to the left-handedness, the ball head buckle moves outwards); the connection between the third eyebrow ball head buckle and the first eyebrow worm is selected to be right-handed (when looking from left to right, the worm rotates counterclockwise, and due to the right-handedness, the ball head buckle moves outwards); the connection between the second eyebrow ball head buckle and the second eyebrow worm is selected to be right-handed (when looking from right to left, the worm rotates counterclockwise, and due to the right-handedness, the ball head buckle moves outwards); the connection between the fourth eyebrow ball head buckle and the second eyebrow worm is selected to be left-handed (when looking from left to right, the worm rotates clockwise, and due to the left-handedness, the ball head buckle moves outwards); when the middle worm rotates, the ball head buckles on both sides can move away from / approach the center synchronously, achieving the horizontal expansion / narrowing of the face bracket.
[0044] 2) Mouth: The fan-shaped expansion / closure of the mouth and nose on both sides of the cheeks is achieved through a worm and worm gear, which is more in line with the shape of the mouth. It is mainly based on the unchanged central face and the fan-shaped expansion around it. The expansion / contraction of the ball head buckle drives the changes in the left and right lower jaws, thus realizing the deformation of the cheeks.
[0045] The worm and worm gear are both selected to be left-handed; the connection between the first mouth ball head buckle and the first mouth worm is selected to be left-handed (when looking from right to left, the worm rotates clockwise, and due to the left-handedness, the ball head buckle moves outwards); the connection between the third mouth ball head buckle and the first mouth worm is selected to be right-handed (when looking from left to right, the worm rotates counterclockwise, and due to the right-handedness, the ball head buckle moves outwards); the connection between the second mouth ball head buckle and the second mouth worm is selected to be left-handed (when looking from right to left, the worm rotates counterclockwise, and due to the left-handedness, the ball head buckle moves inwards); the connection between the fourth mouth ball head buckle and the second mouth worm is selected to be right-handed; (when looking from left to right, the worm rotates clockwise, and due to the right-handedness, the ball head buckle moves inwards); when the middle worm rotates, the first mouth ball head buckle and the third mouth ball head buckle can move away from / approach the center synchronously, while the second mouth ball head buckle and the fourth mouth ball head buckle move towards / away from the center synchronously, realizing the fan-shaped expansion / closure of the side brackets of the mouth.
[0046] 4. Neck movement principle: The neck mechanism consists of a parallel mechanism and a servo motor. The parallel mechanism is composed of three chains. Two of them are composed of a servo motor, a servo arm, a ball button and a ball button connecting rod, and the other is composed of a first push rod joint, an electric push rod, a second push rod joint and a ball bearing. The kinematic pairs of the chain composed of the servo motor are: the servo motor and the servo arm form a revolute pair, the servo arm and the ball button are hinged to form a revolute pair, and the ball button and the connecting seat form a spherical pair, which is an R-R-S chain. The kinematic pairs of the chain composed of the push rod are: the second push rod joint is hinged with the electric push rod to form a revolute pair, and the electric push rod is a prismatic pair; the first push rod joint is fixedly connected with the ball bearing, and the ball bearing and the connecting seat form a spherical pair, which is an R-P-S chain. The parallel mechanism can provide 3 degrees of freedom, realizing one displacement and two rotations, specifically the displacement along the Z-axis (neck elongation), the rotation around the X-axis (head swaying), and the rotation around the Y-axis (nodding). Since the above parallel mechanism cannot realize the function of shaking the head, a third neck servo motor is added to increase a degree of freedom of rotation around the Z-axis.
[0047] The specific implementation process is as Figure 24 shown:
[0048] 1). Neck elongation: The first neck servo motor rotates clockwise and the second neck servo motor rotates counterclockwise to lift the rear part of the neck connecting seat, and the electric push rod extends to synchronously lift the front part of the neck connecting seat (the same applies to shortening);
[0049] 2). Head swaying: The third neck servo motor rotates, and the slewing bearing drives the neck servo motor fixing seat and the parts thereon to rotate to realize head swaying;
[0050] 3). Nodding: The first neck servo motor rotates clockwise and the second neck servo motor rotates counterclockwise to lift the rear part of the neck connecting seat, and the electric push rod shortens to lower the front part of the neck connecting seat (the same applies to raising the head).
[0051] 4). Head tilting: The electric push rod remains stationary. The first neck servo motor rotates clockwise to raise the left side of the neck connecting seat, and the second neck servo motor rotates clockwise to lower the right side of the neck connecting seat.
[0052] 5. Skin color transformation principle: The skin color transformation can achieve two effects, one is the change in the depth of the same skin color, and the other is the change in the color of different skin colors.
[0053] 5.1) There are two ways to change the depth of the same skin color: small-range change and large-range change.
[0054] Small - range change: By adjusting the distance between the transparent outer skin and the inner skin through the skin adjustment component, the amount of color solution filled in is adjusted, and then the average thickness of the color solution is changed, finally realizing small - range changes in skin color depth under the same skin color. When the skin coil is energized, the skin permanent magnet is pushed out, the distance between the skins increases, the amount of solution increases, the average thickness of the color solution increases, and the color changes slightly deeper; when the skin coil is not energized, the color is normal; when the skin coil is energized in the reverse direction, the skin permanent magnet is drawn in, the distance between the skins becomes smaller, the average thickness of the color solution decreases, and the color fades slightly.
[0055] Large - range change: By moving the position of the semi - permeable membrane, the concentration of the color solute in the color solution inside the semi - permeable membrane (near the rotation center side) is adjusted, thereby changing the color depth. When the execution control unit pushes the semi - permeable membrane towards the rotation center direction, the volume of the pure - water cavity increases, the volume of the pigment cavity decreases, the distribution area of the color solute becomes smaller, the color concentration increases, so the color becomes deeper; when the execution control unit pushes the semi - permeable membrane in the reverse direction, the volume of the pure - water cavity decreases, the volume of the pigment cavity increases, the distribution area of the color solute becomes larger, the color concentration decreases, and thus the color fades.
[0056] 5.2) There are three processes in total for skin - color transformation, namely the starting state, the color - filling state, and the fading state, as Figure 23 and Figure 25 shown:
[0057] 5.2.1) Starting state (colorless state): The color - changing power device does not work, and the second valve body is in the lowest position under the action of gravity. At this time, under the elastic force of the oil - fluid spring of the color - changing skin unit, the non - conductive oily liquid fills the first valve body and the output liquid pipeline.
[0058] 5.2.2) Color filling state: The color-changing power device operates to drive the rotating cone to rotate. Under the action of rotational centrifugal force, the upper pressure liquid and the lower pressure liquid are respectively pushed into the upper pressure liquid pipeline and the lower pressure liquid pipeline. Since the pressure of the lower pressure liquid is greater than that of the upper pressure liquid, when the rotational speed of the rotating cone continues to increase to a certain speed, the pressure of the lower pressure liquid is greater than the sum of the pressure of the upper pressure liquid and the gravity of the second valve body. Therefore, the second valve body will be pushed upward. At the predetermined speed, the second valve body will move to the A station, and the plug will pop out under the elastic force of the plug column and engage with the concave pit at A. At this time, the color solution pipeline is connected to the output liquid pipeline, and the color solution will push the color-changing disc and enter the color-changing facial skin unit along the output liquid pipeline. When the color solution passes through the oil current probe, since the color solution is conductive, an electrical signal will be generated at this time. The electrical signal is transmitted to the electronic control system, indicating that the color filling is completed. Under the action of the electronic control system, the rotating cone will maintain a fixed speed to keep the pigment solution stable in the facial skin. And due to the different conductivity of the color solution, according to the detected current magnitude, the type of the color solution is judged to control the synchronous change of the pupil color.
[0059] 5.2.3) Color fading state: When changing the skin color is required, first, color fading is needed. At this time, the control system issues an instruction, and the color-changing power device stops working, and the rotating cone stops rotating. The pressure in the upper pressure liquid pipeline and the lower pressure liquid pipeline disappears. However, since the gravity of the second valve body is less than the fixation of the plug column and the concave pit at A, the second valve body still remains in place, that is, the first valve body and the third valve body still remain in the conducting state. Then, under the elastic force of the oil spring, the non-conductive oily liquid pushes the pigment solution out of the facial skin. The pigment solution returns along the original channel, and the color solution in the facial skin gradually exits and fades. When the oily liquid moves to the position of the third current detection probe pair, since it is non-conductive, the third current detection probe pair changes from the conducting state to the disconnected state, and the current signal is interrupted. The on-off signal is transmitted to the electronic control system. At this time, all the color fading is completed, and the color fading action ends. Furthermore, under the action of the electronic control system, the control coil is energized to suck back the plug column, and the second valve body drops to the lowest position under the action of gravity to complete the reset, that is, to complete an action cycle. Similarly, when the facial skin needs to switch to other skin colors, select different predetermined speeds of the color-changing power device and repeat the above process to complete.
[0060] The present invention adopts a modular design, dividing the driving structure of the expression robot into four parts: the eyebrows, eyes, mouth, and neck, including 4 degrees of freedom for the eyebrows, 8 degrees of freedom for the eyes, 13 degrees of freedom for the mouth, and 4 degrees of freedom for the neck, with a total of 29 degrees of freedom. It can achieve various basic facial expressions and neck movements required. The eyebrows have a total of 4 degrees of freedom. The servos drive the eyebrows through connecting rods to achieve the actions of raising the eyebrows and frowning. The eyes have a total of 8 degrees of freedom: the servos drive to achieve the opening and closing of the upper and lower eyelids through connecting rods, with a total of 4 degrees of freedom; the servos drive to achieve the rotation of the eyeballs through connecting rods, with a total of 4 degrees of freedom. The mouth has a total of 13 degrees of freedom. The servos drive to achieve lip movements through connecting rods, with a total of 4 degrees of freedom; the upper and lower middle lip protrusions and upper / lower lifts have 4 degrees of freedom; the servos drive to achieve smiling, sneering, and grinning actions through connecting rods, with a total of 4 degrees of freedom; the servos directly drive to achieve the action of opening the mouth, with a total of 1 degree of freedom. The neck has a total of 4 degrees of freedom. The parallel mechanism plus servos are used to achieve neck elongation, nodding, shaking the head, and turning the head. The robot of the present invention not only has the basic function of facial expression display, but also increases the degrees of freedom of the mouth to meet the function of real-time conversation; at the same time, the neck structure is optimized, with 4 degrees of freedom to achieve neck elongation to meet different scenarios. In addition, for the needs of different groups of people, a robot with rapid changes in facial deformation, skin color change, and eye iris color change is designed, and it has both synchronous and decoupling functions, which can meet the diverse needs of users.
[0061] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0062] 1. The present invention adopts a worm and worm gear structure to achieve the deformation of the eyebrows, eyes, and mouth, and to achieve the magnification and reduction of the face to match different face shapes.
[0063] 2. The present invention adopts a pupil color-changing device to achieve the switching of three common pupil colors (blue, brown, gray), adjust the pupil color by adjusting the voltage direction, and adjust the depth of the pupil color by adjusting the voltage magnitude.
[0064] 3. The present invention changes the gap between the outer skin and the inner skin through the skin adjustment component, adjusts the amount of color solution filled therein, and then changes the average thickness of the color solution, and finally realizes small-range skin color depth changes under the same skin color. By adjusting the position of the semi-permeable membrane, the concentration of the color solute in the color solution on the inner side (close to the rotation center side) of the semi-permeable membrane is adjusted to achieve large-range adjustment of skin color depth under the same skin color. The switching of three common skin colors (white, yellow, black) is realized through the skin color changing mechanism, and when the skin color is switched, the skin color type is judged by the magnitude of the current, and the pupil color change is synchronously triggered to achieve the matching of skin color and pupil color.
[0065] 4. The present invention adopts a neck structure of a parallel mechanism plus a servo to achieve the switching of multiple states of four degrees of freedom: neck elongation, nodding, shaking the head, and turning the head.
[0066] 5. For customization requirements, the expression robot realizes adaptive facial transformation according to facial features. It can quickly change the face shape, skin color, pupil color, and neck length according to different application scenarios. Moreover, it can change the type and depth of skin color and pupil color, greatly reducing the time and cost of customization. In terms of the richness of expressions, the expression robot has 29 degrees of freedom, meeting basic expression changes, and can achieve rich mouth shapes to meet the needs of real-time conversations.

The output shaft of the second eye servo 12105 is hinged to one end of the lower eyelid link 12107 through the second eye servo arm 12106, and the other end of the lower eyelid link 12107 is hinged to the lower eyelid 12108. Both the upper eyelid 12104 and the lower eyelid 12108 are hinged to the eye fixing bracket 12110, and the upper eyelid 12104 and the lower eyelid 12108 are hinged to each other. The eyeball 12109 is arranged between the upper eyelid 12104 and the lower eyelid 12108;
[0100] The eye mechanism 12 is a left-right symmetric mechanism, including two eyeballs 12109 and two eye fixing brackets 12110. The eye servos 12101, 121005, 12203, and 12204 are all arranged symmetrically left and right. The first eye servo 12101 drives the first eye servo arm 12102 and the upper eyelid link 12103, driving the upper eyelid 12104 to perform the opening and closing action of the upper eyelid. The second eye servo 12105 drives the second eye servo arm 12106 and the lower eyelid link 12107, driving the lower eyelid 12108 to perform the opening and closing action of the lower eyelid.
[0101] As Figure 6As shown in the figure, the eyeball rotation unit 122 includes an eyeball back plate 12201, a third eye servo 12203, a fourth eye servo 12204, a third eye servo arm 12205, a first eye link 12206, a second eye link 12207, a fourth eye servo arm 12208, a third eye link 12209, and a fourth eye link 12210. The third eye servo 12203 and the fourth eye servo 12204 are both fixedly installed on the eye fixing bracket 12110. The eyeball back plate 12201 is fixedly installed on the eyeball 12109. The output shaft of the third eye servo 12203 is fixedly connected to one end of the horizontal third eye servo arm 12205. The other end of the third eye servo arm 12205 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the vertical first eye link 12206. One end of the second eye link 12207 is connected to the first eye link 12206 in a vertically movable manner. The other end of the second eye link 12207 is connected to the eyeball back plate 12201 through a ball joint. The output shaft of the fourth eye servo 12204 is fixedly connected to one end of the fourth eye servo arm 12208. The other end of the fourth eye servo arm 12208 is hinged to one end of the third eye link 12209. The other end of the third eye link 12209 is hinged to the middle of the fourth eye link 12210. The two ends of the fourth eye link 12210 are respectively hinged to the eye fixing bracket 12110 and the eyeball back plate 12201.
[0102] The first eye link 12206 is essentially a sliding rod. When the eye rotates up and down, the second eye link 12207 will slide up and down on the first eye link 12206. The end of the second eye link 12207 is a ball head, forming a ball joint with the eyeball back plate 12201. The third eye servo 12203 drives the third eye servo arm 12205, driving the first eye link 12206 to rotate. The second eye link 12207 will slide on the first eye link 12206, simultaneously driving the eyeball 12109 to rotate around the vertical axis, realizing the left - right rotation of the eyeball. The fourth eye servo 12204 drives the fourth eye servo arm 12208, driving the third eye link 12209. The third eye link 12209 drives the fourth eye link 12210. The fourth eye link 12210 rotates around the horizontal axis of the eyeball 12109, realizing the up - down rotation of the eyeball. One end of the fourth eye link 12210 is provided with a vertical hole, and the fourth eye link 12210 is hinged to the eyeball back plate 12201 at the position of this vertical hole. On the one hand, this hinge is to connect the fourth eye link 12210 and the eyeball 12109 together, driving the eyeball 12109 to rotate around its horizontal axis through the fourth eye link 12210, realizing the up - down movement of the eyeball. On the other hand, when the eyeball 12109 rotates left and right, due to the hinge connection method, the eyeball 12109 will rotate around the axis of this vertical hole without affecting the eye fixing bracket 12110, realizing the independence of the left - right movement and the up - down movement of the eyeball.
[0103] As shown Figure 7 in the figure, the pupil color-changing unit 123 includes a pupil 1231, an eye film 1232, positively charged blue particles, and negatively charged brown particles; the middle of the outer surface of the eyeball 12109 is provided with a pupil 1231 and an eye film 1232. The pupil 1231 and the eye film 1232 are made of a black opaque film and a transparent film respectively. An eyeball cavity 1238 is formed in the middle of the eyeball 12109, and a transparent liquid, positively charged blue particles, and negatively charged brown particles are stored in the eyeball cavity 1238. When a positive current is applied to the transparent liquid, the negatively charged brown particles are adsorbed on the inner surface of the eyeball 12109, making the eye film 1232 of the eyeball 12109 brown. When a negative current is applied to the transparent liquid, the positively charged blue particles are adsorbed on the inner surface of the eyeball 12109, making the eye film 1232 of the eyeball 12109 blue.
[0104] The negatively charged brown particles include negatively charged brown large particles 1233 and negatively charged brown small particles 1234, and the positively charged blue particles include positively charged blue small particles 1236 and positively charged blue large particles 1237. A transparent liquid is stored in the eyeball cavity 1238, and the charged particles can move in the transparent liquid.

The outlets of the three-layer annular cavities arranged from top to bottom in the color-changing power device 101 are respectively communicated with the black solution pipeline 10213, the white solution pipeline 10214 and the yellow solution pipeline 10215. The first current detection probe pair 10210, the second current detection probe pair 10211 and the third current detection probe pair 10212 for detecting the pigment solution 1015 are respectively arranged on the black solution pipeline 10213, the white solution pipeline 10214 and the yellow solution pipeline 10215;
[0131] The top end of the second valve body 10202 is communicated with the outlet of the upper pressure chamber 101104 through the upper pressure liquid pipeline 10204, and the bottom end of the second valve body 10202 is communicated with the outlet of the lower pressure chamber 101105 through the lower pressure liquid pipeline 10205. An upper hydraulic driving device 10220 and a lower hydraulic driving device 10221 for driving the second valve body 10202 to move up and down are respectively arranged on the upper pressure liquid pipeline 10204 and the lower pressure liquid pipeline 10205. A valve body counterbore is formed at the top of the second valve body 10202. A plug column 10206, a permanent magnet 10208 and a plug column spring 10209 are all installed in the valve body counterbore. The two ends of the plug column spring 10209 are respectively connected with the permanent magnet 10208 and the plug column 10206. The plug column 10206 is located on the side of the second valve body 10202 close to the first valve body 10201. A coil 10207 is installed in the plug column 10206, and the movement of the plug column 10206 is controlled by the energization condition of the coil 10207. A pigment through-hole is formed at the bottom of the second valve body 10202;
[0132] Three valve body grooves are formed in the upper part of the first valve body 10201 from top to bottom. The valve body grooves are matched with the plug column 10206 and are used for positioning the plug column 10206, so as to control the conduction between the pigment through-hole at the bottom of the second valve body 10202 and the color pipeline through-hole of the specified color on the third valve body 10203. A valve body groove is formed on the side of the bottom of the first valve body 10201 close to the second valve body 10202. A color-changing disc 10216 is movably installed in the valve body groove. The two ends of two color-changing springs 10217 are respectively connected with the first valve body 10201 and the color-changing disc 10216. The middle part of the color-changing disc 10216 is connected with one end of an output liquid pipeline 10219, and the other end of the output liquid pipeline 10219 is connected with a color-changing skin unit 103.
[0133] In specific implementation, the first valve body 10201, the second valve body 10202 and the third valve body 10203 are vertically installed. The left side surface of the first valve body 10201, the left and right side surfaces of the second valve body 10202, and the right side surface of the third valve body 10203 are smooth surfaces, and they are relatively sealed and slidable with each other. The upper hydraulic driving device 10220 and the lower hydraulic driving device 10221 can both use a push rod to push the second valve body 10202 to move up and down under the drive of fluid pressure. Three spherical pits A, B, and C are formed on the first valve body 10201, and the shapes are matched with the spherical convex surfaces of the plug column 10206, and are used for locking the second valve body 10202 to prevent it from falling when changing skin color and fading. When the yellow solution pipeline is connected, the plug column is just in the pit A; when the white solution pipeline is connected, the plug column is just in the pit B; when the black solution pipeline is connected, the plug column is just in the pit C.
[0134] There is a counterbore on the upper part of the second valve body 10202, with a smooth inner wall, which is used to place the plug post, coil, permanent magnet and plug post spring. There is also an air guide hole at the rear. When the coil 10207 is not energized, under the elastic force of the plug post spring, the plug post 10206 is clamped with the pit of the first valve body 10201, and the second valve body 10202 is locked; when the coil 10207 is energized, the permanent magnet 10208 and the plug post 10206 are pushed back to release the second valve body.
[0135] Current detection probe pairs are installed at the ends of all three solution pipelines. Since the solution is conductive, a signal will be detected when there is colored solution in the pipeline, and no signal will be detected when the pipeline is filled with non-conductive liquid. This component is used to detect whether the skin color changing fading process is completed. The end of the output liquid pipeline 10219 has a chamfer to prevent the color changing disc 10216 from being in close contact with the second valve body 10202, causing the solution to not flow. The disc surface of the color changing disc 10216 close to the second valve body 10202 is a rough surface. The upper and lower surfaces of the color changing disc 10216 slide smoothly and sealingly with the first valve body 10201, and there is an air guide hole on the right side of the first valve body 10201.
[0136] As Figure 20 shown, the color changing skin unit 103 includes a transparent outer skin 10301, an inner skin 10302, a skin color pigment input pipeline 10303, an oily liquid 10304, an oil liquid disc 10305, an oil liquid spring 10306, an oil liquid housing 10307, an oil liquid current probe 10311 and a skin adjusting assembly; the inner skin 10302 is attached to the outer side wall of the head shell mechanism 2. There are several skin adjusting assemblies for adjusting the skin thickness between the transparent outer skin 10301 and the inner skin 10302. The transparent outer skin 10301 and the inner skin 10302 form the skin structure of the robot. The bottom outlet of the skin structure is communicated with one end of the skin color pigment input pipeline 10303, and the other end of the skin color pigment input pipeline 10303 is communicated with the output liquid pipeline 10219 in the color changing valve unit 102. The top outlet of the skin structure is communicated with the opening of the oil liquid housing 10307. The oil liquid disc 10305 and the oil liquid spring 10306 are both installed in the oil liquid housing 10307. The two ends of the oil liquid spring 10306 are respectively connected with the inner wall surface of the oil liquid housing 10307 and the oil liquid disc 10305. The oily liquid 10304 is stored in the oil liquid housing 10307, and the oil liquid disc 10305 is located between the oily liquid 10304 and the oil liquid spring 10306. An oil liquid current probe 10311 for detecting the oily liquid is arranged at the outlet position at the top of the skin structure;
[0137] The dough sheet adjusting component mainly consists of a dough sheet permanent magnet 10308, a dough sheet spring 10309, and a dough sheet coil 10310. The dough sheet permanent magnet 10308 and the dough sheet coil 10310 are respectively installed on the transparent outer dough sheet 10301 and the inner dough sheet 10302. Both ends of the dough sheet spring 10309 are respectively connected to the dough sheet permanent magnet 10308 and the dough sheet coil 10310. The distance between the transparent outer dough sheet 10301 and the inner dough sheet 10302 is controlled by the energization condition of the dough sheet coil 10310, thereby controlling the thickness of the dough sheet structure.
[0138] When the dough sheet coil 10310 is energized, it will push the dough sheet permanent magnet 10308, drive the transparent outer dough sheet 10301, increase the distance between the transparent outer dough sheet 10301 and the inner dough sheet 10302, adjust the amount of color solution filled therein, thereby changing the average thickness of the color solution, and finally realizing small - range changes in skin color shade under the same skin color. The oily liquid 10304 is an oily transparent non - conductive liquid, which is transparent, incompressible, insoluble in water and the color solution, and non - conductive. The stiffness of the oil - liquid spring 10306 is relatively low, but greater than the equivalent stiffness of the two color - changing springs 10217.
[0139] As Figure 3 shown, the head shell mechanism 2 includes a side face shell 21, a middle face shell 22, a side lower jaw 24, and a middle - lower jaw 25.
