DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0035] As an important branch of robot technology, dexterous hand technology has made great progress and some representative dexterous hands have been developed, such as Stanford / JPL hand, Utah / M.I.T hand, DLR hand, NASA hand and so on. Some progress is mainly reflected in mechanical structure, driving, sensing, integration and control. However, due to the limitations of motor technology and electronic product manufacturing technology, the integration of related technologies of dexterous hand has not reached a satisfactory level. The design difficulty of a two-degree-of-freedom dexterous hand finger lies in the motion decoupling between the two degrees of freedom of bending and side swing. At present, the dexterous hand structure capable of achieving the motion decoupling between the two degrees of freedom of bending and side swing of the dexterous hand finger is complex and has poor reliability.

[0036] Currently, there are two ways to achieve the motion decoupling between the two degrees of freedom of bending and side swing, one is to use gear transmission, and the other is to use tendon transmission. For the gear transmission mode, two pairs of gear differential motion are mainly used to achieve the decoupling of bending and side swing motion. However, the volume of the gear is generally large, resulting in a large size of the dexterous hand using the gear transmission. For the tendon transmission mode, the tendon is mainly used to pass through the center of each joint axis of the finger to achieve the decoupling of bending and side swing motion. However, it is difficult to ensure that the tendon strictly passes through the center of the joint axis, and therefore, there is a large decoupling error, resulting in low motion accuracy of the dexterous hand using the tendon transmission. In addition, the tendon also has the disadvantages of low service life and poor maintainability.

[0037] In order to solve at least one of the above problems, the embodiments of the present application provide a dexterous hand finger applied to a dexterous hand, comprising a side swing assembly, a first phalanx, a first connecting rod assembly, a second connecting rod assembly, a first driving assembly and a second driving assembly. Specifically, the side swing assembly is rotatably connected with a palm base plate about a first axis. The first phalanx is rotatably connected with the side swing assembly about a second axis, and the second axis is perpendicular to the first axis. A first end of the first connecting rod assembly is rotatably connected with the first phalanx about a third axis, and the third axis is parallel to the second axis. A first end of the second connecting rod assembly forms a spherical pair with a second end of the first connecting rod assembly. The first driving assembly comprises a fixed part and a movable part connected with each other, the fixed part is connected with the palm base plate, and a second end of the second connecting rod assembly is rotatably connected with the movable part about a fourth axis, and the fourth axis is parallel to the first axis, wherein the fixed part can drive the movable part to move in a first direction, so as to drive the second connecting rod assembly to move by using the movable part, drive the first connecting rod assembly to move by using the second connecting rod assembly, and drive the first phalanx to rotate about the second axis by using the first connecting rod assembly, so as to realize the bending of the first phalanx. The second driving assembly is connected with the side swing assembly and is configured to drive the side swing assembly to rotate about the first axis relative to the palm base plate, so as to drive the first phalanx to rotate about the first axis by using the side swing assembly, and realize the side swing of the first phalanx.

[0038] In other words, the side swing assembly, the first phalanx, the first connecting rod assembly, the second connecting rod assembly and the first driving assembly form a spatial crank slider mechanism, which can drive the phalanx to rotate around the second axis, realizing the bending of the first phalanx. The phalanx can rotate around the first axis under the driving of the second driving assembly, realizing the side swing of the first phalanx. The first end of the second connecting rod assembly and the second end of the first connecting rod assembly form a spherical pair, realizing the motion decoupling between the two degrees of freedom of bending and side swing, and the structure is simple, the probability of failure of the dexterous hand is reduced, and the reliability of the dexterous hand finger is improved.

[0039] In addition, the first connecting rod assembly and the second connecting rod assembly form a spatial connecting rod, without using a gear transmission with a large volume, so that the size of the dexterous hand finger is reduced, and the size of the dexterous hand finger is closer to that of a human hand finger. In addition, the connection mode between the side swing assembly, the first phalanx, the first connecting rod assembly, the second connecting rod assembly, the first driving assembly and the second driving assembly is mainly rotary connection, which is more accurate than the tendon connection mode of the related art, and the transmission mode of the present application is mainly connecting rod transmission, which is more efficient than the gear transmission and tendon connection. Therefore, the dexterous hand finger provided in the embodiments of the present application not only realizes the motion decoupling between the two degrees of freedom of bending and side swing of the dexterous hand finger, but also improves the motion accuracy of the dexterous hand and reduces the size of the dexterous hand.

[0040] In addition, the service life and maintainability of the side swing assembly, the first phalanx, the first connecting rod assembly, the second connecting rod assembly, the first driving assembly and the second driving assembly of the dexterous hand finger provided in the embodiments of the present application are higher than those of the tendon, and therefore, the service life of the dexterous hand finger provided in the embodiments of the present application is longer and the maintainability is better than those of the dexterous hand using the tendon transmission.

[0041] The specific structure of the dexterous hand finger, the dexterous hand and the robot will be described below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments.

Figure 2 Fig. 2 shows a structure schematic diagram of a dexterous hand provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 Fig. 3 shows a partial enlarged view of the dexterous hand finger in region A. Figure 3 Fig. 4 shows a front view of the dexterous hand finger provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 4 Fig. 5 shows a structure schematic diagram of a robot provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 Fig. 6 shows a cross-sectional schematic diagram of the dexterous hand finger in B-B direction. Figure 5 Fig. 7 shows a partial enlarged view of the dexterous hand finger in region C. Figure 4 Fig. 8 shows a partial enlarged view of the dexterous hand finger in region D. Figure 1 to Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the dexterous hand finger 10 includes a side swing assembly 100, a first phalanx 200, a first connecting rod assembly 300, a second connecting rod assembly 400, a first driving assembly 500 and a second driving assembly 600.

[0043] The dexterous hand finger 10 is applied to the dexterous hand 3. The dexterous hand 3 is applied to the robot 1. For example, the robot 1 includes a main body 2 and a dexterous hand 3, and the dexterous hand 3 is provided on the main body 2. The main body 2 can be the body structure of a humanoid robot or the arm structure of an industrial robot, and this application does not make specific limitations.

[0044] The dexterous hand 3 includes a palm substrate 20 and at least one dexterous hand finger 10. The dexterous hand finger 10 is disposed on the palm substrate 20. The palm substrate 20 can be connected to the main body 2. The palm substrate 20 can be a plate-like structure similar to a palm.

[0045] The side swing assembly 100 is rotatably connected to the palm base 20 around the first axis L1. The first axis L1 can be perpendicular to the palm base 20. The first axis L1 is the side swing axis of the dexterous hand finger 10. Figure 1 The U-shaped structure shown may also be an L-shaped structure or a rectangular structure, which is not specifically limited in this application. For example, the side swing assembly 100 may be integrally formed or assembled from multiple parts.

[0046] The first phalanx 200 is rotatably connected to the side swing assembly 100 about a second axis L2. The second axis L2 is perpendicular to the first axis L1. The second axis L2 is the bending axis of the dexterous hand finger 10. The first phalanx 200 can be the phalanx connected to the root joint. In practical applications, the dexterous hand finger 10 can also include a phalanx assembly connected to the first phalanx 200, and the phalanx assembly can include a second phalanx and a third phalanx that are rotatably connected.

[0047] like Figure 2 As shown, the first end of the first connecting rod assembly 300 is rotatably connected to the first knuckle 200 about a third axis L3. The third axis L3 is parallel to the second axis L2. The first end of the second connecting rod assembly 400 forms a spherical pair with the second end of the first connecting rod assembly 300. A spherical pair is a kinematic pair in which two components can perform three independent relative rotations about a sphere.

[0048] For example, the first connecting rod assembly 300 can be a straight rod, a curved rod, or other irregular shapes, which are not specifically limited in this application. In actual applications, the first connecting rod assembly 300 can be configured with some curved structures, airtight structures, etc. according to the available space, so as to fully utilize the space and improve the compactness of the dexterous hand finger 10.

[0049] The first driving assembly 500 comprises a fixed part 510 and a movable part 520 connected with each other. The fixed part 510 is connected with the palm base plate 20, and the second end of the second connecting rod assembly 400 is rotatably connected with the movable part 520 relative to the fourth axis L4, which is parallel to the first axis L1. The fixed part 510 can drive the movable part 520 to move along the first direction Y, so as to drive the second connecting rod assembly 400 to move by the movable part 520, drive the first connecting rod assembly 300 to move by the second connecting rod assembly 400, and drive the first knuckle 200 to rotate around the second axis L2 by the first connecting rod assembly 300. The first direction Y is perpendicular to the fourth axis L4.

[0050] The relative rotation between the above components can be realized by hinging or other structures as long as the rotation around the corresponding axis is realized, and the specific rotation mode is not limited in the application. Exemplarily, the two components relative to each other can be provided with shaft holes, and then an activity shaft is inserted into the shaft holes of the two components to realize the relative rotation of the two components. Exemplarily, a bearing can be further arranged between the activity shaft and the two components to improve the flexibility of rotation.

[0051] Exemplarily, the fixed part 510 can be a motor and a lead screw. The movable part 520 can be a lead screw nut. The motor drives the lead screw to rotate, and the lead screw drives the lead screw nut to move along the first direction Y. Exemplarily, the fixed part 510 can be a cylinder structure of a gas cylinder, and the movable part 520 can be a cylinder rod structure of the gas cylinder. The cylinder structure drives the cylinder rod structure to stretch and contract along the first direction Y, that is, to realize the movement of the cylinder rod structure along the first direction Y.

[0052] The second driving assembly 600 is connected with the side swing assembly 100 and is configured to drive the side swing assembly 100 to rotate around the first axis L1 relative to the palm base plate 20, so as to drive the first knuckle 200 to rotate around the first axis L1 by the side swing assembly 100. Exemplarily, the second driving assembly 600 can be a motor, that is, directly driving the side swing assembly 100 to rotate by the motor. Exemplarily, the second driving assembly 600 can comprise a motor and a belt wheel transmission assembly, that is, driving the belt wheel transmission assembly to move by the motor, and driving the side swing assembly 100 to rotate by the belt wheel transmission assembly.

[0053] The side swing assembly 100, the first knuckle 200, the first connecting rod assembly 300, the second connecting rod assembly 400 and the first driving assembly 500 form a crank slider mechanism. Specifically, as shown in Figure 5As shown, the first phalanx 200 can be considered as a crank of a crank-slider mechanism, the first link assembly 300 and the second link assembly 400 can be considered as links of the crank-slider mechanism, and the movable piece 520 of the first driving assembly 500 can be considered as a slider of the crank-slider mechanism. The crank-slider mechanism can drive the first phalanx 200 to rotate around the second axis L2, and realize the bending of the first phalanx 200.

[0054] Under the driving of the second driving assembly 600, the first phalanx 200 can rotate around the first axis L1, and realize the side swing of the first phalanx 200.

[0055] The first end of the second link assembly 400 and the second end of the first link assembly 300 form a spherical pair, realize the motion decoupling between the two degrees of freedom of bending and side swing, have a simple structure, reduce the failure probability of the dexterous hand, and improve the reliability of the dexterous hand. In other words, when the first phalanx 200 performs side swing around the first axis L1, the first link assembly 300 can rotate with the first phalanx 200, and does not affect the bending of the first phalanx 200, that is, the bending and side swing of the first phalanx 200 are independent of each other.

[0056] Exemplarily, the angle between the rotation axis of the crank of the traditional crank-slider mechanism and the sliding direction of the slider is 90 degrees, and the position and posture of the rotation axis of the crank remain unchanged. However, the posture of the rotation axis of the crank (i.e., the second axis L2) of the present application is variable. When the first phalanx 200 generates a side swing angle, the included angle between the rotation axis of the crank (i.e., the second axis L2) and the sliding direction of the slider (i.e., the movement direction of the movable piece 520, that is, the first direction Y) becomes the difference between 90 degrees and the side swing angle. In other words, the first link assembly 300 and the second link assembly 400 of the present application form a spatial link assembly, and the side swing assembly 100, the first phalanx 200, the first link assembly 300, the second link assembly 400, and the first driving assembly 500 of the present application form a spatial crank-slider mechanism.

[0057] In addition, the dexterous hand finger 10 provided by the embodiment of the present application comprises the side swing assembly 100, the first phalanx 200, the first link assembly 300, the second link assembly 400, the first driving assembly 500, and the second driving assembly 600, that is, the transmission is realized by using the first link assembly 300 and the second link assembly 400, without using a gear transmission with a large size, thereby reducing the size of the dexterous hand finger 10, and making the size of the dexterous hand finger 10 closer to that of a human hand finger. In actual application, the size ratio of the dexterous hand finger 10 provided by the embodiment of the present application to the human hand finger can be 1:1.

[0058] In addition, the connection method between the side swing assembly 100, the first finger joint 200, the first connecting rod assembly 300, the second connecting rod assembly 400, the first drive assembly 500, and the second drive assembly 600 of the dexterous hand finger 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application is mainly a rotational connection, which has higher precision than the tendon connection method of the related art. The transmission method of the present application is mainly a connecting rod transmission, which has higher transmission efficiency than the gear transmission and tendon connection. Therefore, the dexterous hand finger 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application not only realizes the motion decoupling between the two degrees of freedom of bending and side swing of the dexterous hand finger 10, but also improves the motion precision of the dexterous hand finger 10, reduces the size of the dexterous hand finger 10, reduces the weight of the dexterous hand finger 10, and facilitates the integration of the dexterous hand finger 10.

[0059] In addition, the connecting rod assembly 300 has high rigidity and strength, so using the connecting rod assembly 300 as a transmission can make the dexterous hand fingers 10 stronger and the transmission efficiency higher.

[0060] In addition, the lifespan and maintainability of the side swing assembly 100, the first finger joint 200, the first connecting rod assembly 300, the second connecting rod assembly 400, the first drive assembly 500 and the second drive assembly 600 of the dexterous hand finger 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application are higher than those of the tendon rope. Therefore, the dexterous hand finger 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application has a longer lifespan and better maintainability than the dexterous hand using tendon rope transmission.

[0061] In some embodiments, as Figure 5 As shown, the first link assembly 300 includes a first link 310 and a first component 320 . The second link assembly 400 includes a second link 410 and a second component 420 .

[0062] The first end of the first link 310 is rotatably connected to the first knuckle 200 about the third axis L3 . The first component 320 is connected to the second end of the first link 310 .

[0063] The second end of the second link 410 is rotatably connected to the movable member 520 about the fourth axis L4. The second component 420 is connected to the first end of the second link 410.

[0064] The first component 320 and the second component 420 form a ball joint. The ball joint forms a spherical pair, which has a simple structure and high reliability, further improving the reliability of the dexterous hand finger 10.

[0065] Exemplarily, the first component 320 and the second component 420 can be a fish-eye bearing. For example, the first component 320 comprises an inner ring of the fish-eye bearing, and the second component 420 comprises an outer ring of the fish-eye bearing. Exemplarily, the first component 320 and the second component 420 can be a ball bearing. For example, the first component 320 comprises a ball head of the ball bearing, and the second component 420 comprises a ball seat of the ball bearing.

The first limiting surface 531, the second limiting surface 532, and the third limiting surface 533 all extend along the first direction Y.

[0069] The first limiting surface 531 is adjacent to and parallel with the first plane 521, and the second limiting surface 532 is adjacent to and parallel with the second plane 522. The first limiting surface 531 and the second limiting surface 532 are collectively configured to limit the displacement of the movable member 520 in the second direction X1, which is perpendicular to the first direction Y.

[0070] The third limiting surface 533 is adjacent to and parallel with the third plane 523. The third limiting surface 533 is configured to limit the displacement of the movable member 520 in the third direction X2, which is perpendicular to the first direction Y and perpendicular to the second direction X1.

[0071] By setting the limiting piece 530, the displacement of the movable piece 520 in the second direction X1 and the third direction X2 is limited by the first limiting surface 531, the second limiting surface 532 and the third limiting surface 533, three-face guidance of the movable piece 520 is achieved, and the guidance reliability and guidance accuracy of the movable piece 520 are improved.

[0072] In some embodiments, the fixed piece 510 includes a first driving source 511 and a lead screw 512. The first driving source 511 is connected with the palm base plate 20. The lead screw 512 is connected with the first driving source 511 and rotates under the driving of the first driving source 511. The movable piece 520 includes a lead screw nut 524.

The key 130 partially extends into the first key groove 22 and partially extends into the second key groove 123. The locking piece 140 is screwed with the end of the second shaft segment 122 away from the first shaft segment 121, so as to prevent the pin shaft 120 from being pulled out of the first through hole 21 and the second through hole 111.

[0077] Exemplarily, the side swing piece 110 can be a U-shaped structure as shown in Figure 1 , or an L-shaped structure, or a rectangular structure, which is not limited in the application.

In addition, the first bearing 150 and the second bearing 160 are respectively arranged to support the first connecting part 112 and the second connecting part 113, thereby improving the stability of the side swing piece 110. In other words, while facilitating replacement of the dexterous hand finger 10, the stability of the side swing piece 110 is improved.
