[0010] The working principle of the present invention is as follows:
[0011] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , a humanoid double-chain structure robotic arm consists of a main body 1, a main chain 2 and a secondary chain 3.
[0012] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6, a humanoid double-chain structure manipulator, except for the third joint housing 2-1 and the sixth joint housing 3-1 in the main chain 2 and the secondary chain 3, the other parts are completely symmetrical structures, and the joints are interchangeable. The main chain 2 plus the main body 1 has a total of 7 degrees of freedom, which is a standard serial 7-axis manipulator configuration, and the axes of all joints intersect in a straight line without offset. The secondary chain 3 plus the main body 1 has a total of 8 degrees of freedom, and the axes of the first joint 1-2, the second joint 1-5, the third joint 1-7, and the fourth joint 1-9 of the main body 1 and the sixth joint 3-2, the ninth joint 3-5, the tenth joint 3-7, and the eleventh joint 3-10 of the secondary chain 3 also intersect in a straight line without offset, ensuring that the first joint 1-2, the third joint 1-7, the ninth joint 3-5, and the eleventh joint 3-10 are concentric, and the axes of the second joint 1-5, the fourth joint 1-9, and the tenth joint 3-7 are parallel. If the sixth joint 3-2 is locked, it is a standard serial 7-axis manipulator configuration. The 7-axis industrial robot configuration of two chains plus a main body is ensured, which facilitates algorithm switching during movement.
[0013] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , a humanoid double-chain structure robot arm, whose joints are easy to disassemble and can realize the conversion between single and double chains. If the secondary chain 3 is removed, it is a standard 7-axis robot configuration; if the main chain 2 is removed and the sixth joint 3-2 is locked, it is a standard 7-axis robot configuration, and if the third joint 1-7 and the sixth joint 3-2 are locked at the same time, it is a standard 6-axis industrial robot configuration, which enhances the practicality of the robot arm.
[0014] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Fig. 9, a humanoid double-chain structure robot, the main body 1 plus the main chain 2 is the first kinematic chain to complete the main work, and the main body 1 plus the secondary chain 3 is the second kinematic chain to complete the auxiliary work. In the initial working state, the main chain 2 and the secondary chain 3 are separated by a certain angle to ensure that the two chains do not interfere with each other during the movement. Then the first kinematic chain is the priority kinematic chain, and the standard 7-axis robot algorithm is used for rough positioning, and the joints of the secondary chain 3 are locked to follow the movement of the main chain 2. When performing fine operations, the first kinematic chain uses the standard 7-axis robot algorithm, or locks the third joint 1-7, and uses the industrial 6-axis robot algorithm to complete the main operation task, and the secondary chain 3 follows. Then the end position of the main chain 2 is fixed, the third joint 1-7 is locked, and the second kinematic chain uses the industrial 6-axis robot algorithm with an offset at the fourth joint to complete the auxiliary operation task. When the dual chains move in coordination to complete certain tasks, the third joint 1-7 is locked, and the main and secondary chains use the basic industrial 6-axis robot algorithm to plan two paths for simultaneous movement. While the main body 1 and the main chain 2 are completing their main tasks, the sixth joint 3-2 in the secondary chain 3 can rotate a certain angle to control the distance between it and the main chain 2, and the ninth joint 3-5, the tenth joint 3-7, and the eleventh joint 3-10 in the secondary chain 3 can adjust the posture of the end. At this time, the two chains can move simultaneously without interfering with each other and cooperate to complete certain complex tasks.
[0015] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Fig.10 , a humanoid double-chain structure robotic arm can switch between different modes according to different working scenarios. In scenarios where interactive collaboration is required or multiple actions are completed in a limited space, a mode of main body 1 plus two branches is adopted, with a total of 11 degrees of freedom. Each branch chain and main body 1 ensure a standard 7-axis robot arm configuration. Complex collaborative tasks can be completed through the coordinated cooperation of main body 1 and the double chains; in scenarios where complex tasks are completed in work areas with limited space and many obstacles, a 7-axis redundant robot arm configuration is suitable, then the secondary chain 3 can be removed, and the main body 1 plus the main chain 2 is a standard serial 7-axis robot arm configuration, or the main chain 2 can be removed, and the main body 1 plus the secondary chain 3 has a total of 8 degrees of freedom, and the sixth joint 3-2 is locked at the same time, which is a standard serial 7-axis robot arm configuration; in production line operations that are good at repetitiveness, such as handling, welding, spraying and other industrial applications, a 6-axis industrial robot arm configuration is suitable, then the secondary chain 3 can be removed, and the third joint 1-7 can be locked at the same time, which is a standard 6-axis industrial robot arm configuration, and the main chain 2 can be removed, and the main body 1 plus the secondary chain 3 has a total of 8 degrees of freedom, and the third joint 1-7 and the sixth joint 3-2 are locked at the same time, which is a standard 6-axis industrial robot arm configuration.
[0016] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Fig.14 When the robot arm is in a non-working state, the joints in the main chain 2 and the auxiliary chain 3 are closely close to the main body 1, which can reduce space occupation. In addition, the robot arm is small and compact, and is easy to carry and transport.

During the movement, the four joints of the main body 1 ensure the position of the end, and the joints of the main chain 2 and the secondary chain 3 ensure the posture of the end. When the main body and the double chain cooperate to replace humans to complete certain tasks, first, the sixth joint 3-2 in the secondary chain 3 rotates a certain angle and diverges from the main chain 2 at a certain angle to ensure that the two branches do not interfere with each other during the movement. Then, the secondary chain 3 is locked, and the main body 1 plus the main chain 2 are the first motion chain.

When the double chains move in coordination for fine operations, the third joint 1-7 is locked, and the first kinematic chain consisting of the main body 1 and the main chain 2 is the priority kinematic chain. The standard 6-axis industrial robot arm algorithm is used to plan the joint angles and paths according to the target to complete the main work. At the same time, the second kinematic chain consisting of the main body 1 and the secondary chain 3 uses the 6-axis industrial robot arm algorithm with a bias on the fourth axis to plan the joint angles and paths of the secondary chain according to the target to complete the auxiliary work. The sixth joint 3-2 in the secondary chain 3 can rotate a certain angle to control the distance from the main chain 2 to adjust the position of the end of the secondary chain. The ninth joint 3-5, the tenth joint 3-7, and the eleventh joint 3-10 in the secondary chain 3 can adjust the posture of the end. At this time, the two chains can move simultaneously, without interfering with each other, and cooperate to complete certain complex tasks.
