Simulated animals are usually made of a series of mechanical parts, and the movement effect is produced by combining various parts.

[0005] In the above patent document, the forearm of the device is an integrated fixed structure. Since the length ratios of the limbs of the same animal are also different, the above device cannot simulate the movement states of different body shapes of the same animal, which reduces the simulation range of the device.

[0006] Therefore, we make improvements on this and propose an arm rotating device for simulating animals. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of the utility model is to address the problem that the forelimbs of simulated animals are currently driven by motors to rotate related gears, but the overall forelimb structure cannot move at different angles in the vertical direction, which limits the movement range of the forelimbs of the simulated animals and reduces the simulation effect. The forearms of the device are integrated fixed structures. Since the length ratios of the limbs of the same animal are also different, the above-mentioned device cannot simulate the movement states of different body shapes of the same animal, thereby reducing the simulation range of the device.

[0008] In order to achieve the above-mentioned utility model purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0020] In the solution of the utility model:

[0021] 1. The rotating hydraulic cylinder is set to drive the shoulder joint and the upper arm to rotate. The setting of the shoulder joint increases the freedom of the forelimbs of the simulated animal during motion simulation. The transmission motor drives the rotating shaft and the upper arm through the transmission shaft and the universal joint to reciprocate about the specified frequency of the shoulder joint, simulates the movement of the upper arm of the forelimb of the simulated animal, and realizes the expansion of the motion range and freedom of the forelimb of the simulated animal during motion simulation. It solves the problem that the forelimb of the simulated animal is driven by the motor to drive the relevant gears to rotate in the prior art, but the overall forelimb structure cannot move at different angles in the vertical direction, which limits the motion range of the forelimb of the simulated animal and reduces the simulation effect.

The setting of the shoulder joint 2 increases the freedom of movement of the forelimbs during animal movement simulation, so that the simulated animal can show more movements during movement simulation.

The hydraulic cylinder 5 is controlled to push the small arm 51 to reciprocate at a specified frequency about the upper arm 31 to simulate the movement state of the lower arm of the forelimb of the animal during movement. When it is necessary to simulate the movement of different animals, due to the different ratios of the forelimb lengths of different animals, it is necessary to control the first telescopic hydraulic cylinder 61 and the second telescopic hydraulic cylinder 62 to push the first telescopic arm 32 and the second telescopic arm 63 to move, so that the upper arm and the lower arm of the simulated animal are respectively telescoped to different degrees, so that the simulated movement of the simulated animal is more realistic.
