[0017] Compared to existing robot leg structures, this invention incorporates a speed reducer and gearbox between the first and second motors to achieve deceleration and speed change functions, thereby improving the stability of the robot's leg movements.

[0018] This invention achieves initial deceleration and torque increase by directly driving the reducer with a first motor, ensuring that subsequent transmission components bear reasonable loads and improving the stability and durability of the entire transmission system. The direct connection between the first motor and the reducer reduces energy loss during transmission and improves energy utilization efficiency. Furthermore, the ingenious connection between the reducer's output and the gearbox allows for precise adjustment and distribution of power as needed, providing different speeds and forces to the robot's legs to meet the demands of walking on complex terrain. The second motor adds an additional power source and control dimension. Connected to the reducer via a connecting plate, it not only enhances the system's structural stability but also allows for auxiliary power or power switching when necessary, enabling more refined motion control and power distribution. This allows the robot to maintain efficient walking while rapidly responding to external changes, such as sudden acceleration, turning, or obstacle crossing. The gearbox's internal combination of an output adjustment plate, a fixed speed plate, and a variable speed output plate constitutes a highly flexible transmission mechanism. The movement of the output adjustment plate between the fixed speed plate and the variable speed output plate allows for selective driving of one of them as needed, thereby achieving precise control of the speed and force of the leg linkage movement. This design not only improves the stability and accuracy of walking but also greatly expands the robot's range of motion and adaptability, enabling it to maintain optimal walking performance in various environments. Through the drivetrain and gear shifting mechanism, the leg-mounted gear shifting mechanism effectively disperses and absorbs the impact forces and loads generated during walking, protecting critical components from damage. Simultaneously, its flexible gear shifting capability allows the robot to adapt to different ground conditions, such as grass, sand, and stairs, achieving broader application coverage. This invention significantly enhances the robot's walking performance and application potential through efficient power transmission, flexible dual-motor configuration, innovative gearbox design, enhanced load capacity, and good maintainability.

The third link has a first pivot portion and a second pivot portion, with the first pivot portion connected to the first link and the second pivot portion connected to the second link. In this embodiment, the pivotal design of the first link and the speed-changing output disk ensures that the leg mechanism can achieve flexible and efficient step adjustments according to the rotational speed and direction of the speed-changing output disk. This design not only improves the robot's walking stability but also greatly enhances its adaptability to complex terrain. Secondly, the direct connection between the second link and the output end of the second motor provides a powerful driving force for the leg mechanism. By precisely controlling the output of the second motor, the leg force can be accurately adjusted to meet the robot's movement needs in different scenarios. The third link, as a bridge connecting the first and second links, has its first and second pivot portions connected to the two links respectively, forming a stable triangular support structure.

This design not only improves the stability and accuracy of walking but also greatly expands the robot's range of motion and adaptability, enabling it to maintain optimal walking performance in various environments. Through the transmission chain and speed-changing mechanism, the leg speed-changing mechanism effectively disperses and withstands the impact forces and loads generated during walking, protecting critical components from damage. Simultaneously, its flexible speed-changing capability allows the robot to adapt to different ground conditions, such as grass, sand, and stairs, achieving broader application scenario coverage. This embodiment significantly improves the robot's walking performance and application potential through efficient power transmission, flexible dual-motor configuration, innovative gearbox 3 design, enhanced load capacity, and good maintainability.

In this embodiment, the pivotal design of the first linkage 51 and the speed-changing output disk 33 ensures that the leg mechanism can achieve flexible and efficient step adjustment according to the rotational speed and direction of the speed-changing output disk 33. This design not only improves the robot's walking stability but also greatly enhances its adaptability to complex terrain. Secondly, the direct connection between the second linkage 52 and the output end of the second motor 4 provides a powerful driving force for the leg mechanism. By precisely controlling the output of the second motor 4, the leg force can be precisely adjusted, thereby meeting the robot's movement needs in different scenarios.

[0034] See Figures 7-8 The reducer 2 includes a drive connecting seat 21, a fixed connecting seat 22, a planetary gear set 23, and an output disc 24. One end of the drive connecting seat 21 is connected to the drive end of the first motor 1. The fixed connecting seat 22 is provided with a first bearing 25 and is rotatably connected to the speed-changing output disc 33 through the first bearing 25. One end of the planetary gear set 23 is rotatably connected to the fixed connecting seat 22, and the other end is rotatably connected to the drive connecting seat 21. The planetary gear set 23 meshes with the output disc 24. In this embodiment, the drive connecting seat 21 is directly connected to the drive end of the first motor 1, ensuring the directness and efficiency of power transmission and reducing energy loss during transmission. The design of the first bearing 25 on the fixed connecting seat 22 not only provides stable support for the speed-changing output disc 33 but also enables its smooth rotation, enhancing the movement flexibility of the mechanism. As the core component of the reducer 2, the planetary gear set 23's unique structural design allows it to be rotatably connected to both the fixed connecting seat 22 and the drive connecting seat 21 simultaneously, effectively distributing the load during transmission and improving the overall load-bearing capacity of the mechanism. In addition, the meshing design of the planetary gear set 23 and the output wheel 24 enables precise speed reduction transmission, ensuring accurate control and stable movement of the robot's legs during the deformation process.

[0035] A second bearing 26 is provided between the output wheel 24 and the speed-changing fixed plate 32, and the output wheel 24 and the speed-changing fixed plate 32 are rotatably connected by the second bearing 26. In this embodiment, the introduction of the second bearing 26 greatly enhances the flexibility and range of motion of the robot's leg deformation mechanism. The output wheel 24 can rotate smoothly relative to the speed-changing fixed plate 32, ensuring the accuracy and smoothness of the robot when performing complex movements. This rotatable connection method allows the leg mechanism to adapt more effectively to various terrains and movement requirements, improving the overall motion performance of the robot. Secondly, the use of the second bearing 26 also improves the durability and reliability of the robot's leg deformation mechanism. As a key component in mechanical transmission, the bearing has excellent load-bearing capacity and wear resistance. During long-term operation and frequent deformation, the second bearing 26 can effectively reduce friction and wear, extending the service life of the robot's leg mechanism.

[0036] A connecting gear ring 221 is provided on the inner side of the fixed connecting seat 22. The connecting gear ring 221 meshes with the planetary gear set 23. One end of the fixed connecting seat 22 is connected to the connecting disk 41. Specifically, the speed change fixed disk 32 includes a connecting cover 321 and a fixed gear ring 322. The connecting cover 321 is disposed on the first motor 1. The fixed gear ring 322 is disposed on one side of the connecting cover 321. The fixed gear ring 322 is provided with a plurality of fixed teeth 323. The output adjusting disk 31 is provided with adjusting meshing teeth 311. The drive end of the reducer 2 is provided with an output connecting tooth 27, which meshes with the adjusting meshing teeth 311. The variable speed output disk 33 is provided with output mating teeth 331, which are used to engage with adjusting mating teeth 311. The output connecting teeth 27, fixed teeth 323, and output mating teeth 331 are arranged opposite to each other, and the adjusting mating teeth 311 move between the output connecting teeth 27, fixed teeth 323, and output mating teeth 331. In this embodiment, the precise meshing of the connecting tooth ring 221 provided on the inner side of the fixed connecting seat 22 with the planetary gear set 23 ensures the smoothness and accuracy of power transmission, which is crucial for the stable walking of the robot's legs in complex terrain. The connecting disk 41 is connected to one end of the fixed connecting seat 22, further enhancing the overall stability of the structure, so that the leg deformation mechanism can still maintain a good operating state when subjected to a large load. The design of the variable speed fixed disk 32 gives the robot's leg deformation mechanism a richer variable speed capability. The connecting cover 321 is tightly installed on the first motor 1, and the multiple fixed teeth 323 on the fixed tooth ring 323 engage with the adjusting mating teeth 311 on the output adjusting disk 31 to achieve precise power control. Meanwhile, the drive end of the reducer 2 smoothly transmits power to the speed output disc 33 through the meshing of the output connecting gear 27 and the adjusting engagement gear 311. Furthermore, the engagement of the output engagement gear 331 enables multi-stage speed change and output of power. In addition, the relative arrangement of the output connecting gear 27, the fixed gear 323, and the output engagement gear 331, along with the flexible movement of the adjusting engagement gear 311, allows the robot's leg deformation mechanism to quickly respond to and adapt to different motion requirements during deformation.

[0037] A pivot bracket 332 is provided on one side of the variable speed output disk 33, and the variable speed output disk 33 is pivotally connected to the first connecting rod 51 through the pivot bracket 332. In this embodiment, the variable speed output disk 33 can adjust the speed and torque according to different motion requirements, while the pivot bracket 332 ensures the stability and continuity of power transmission. Through the pivot connection with the first connecting rod 51, this structure can effectively convert the power of the variable speed output disk 33 into the motion power of the robot's legs, thereby realizing the flexible deformation and precise control of the leg mechanism. Secondly, the use of the pivot bracket 332 allows the leg mechanism to withstand greater forces and torques during deformation, thereby improving the stability and durability of the mechanism. At the same time, the flexible speed change capability of the variable speed output disk 33 also enables the robot to better adapt to various complex environments and task requirements.

[0038] The connecting plate 41 is equipped with a motor connecting frame 411, which is mounted on the second motor 4. A heat dissipation cavity 412 is formed between the connecting plate 41 and the second motor 4. In this embodiment, the motor connecting frame 411 achieves a stable connection between the motor and the connecting plate 41, providing reliable power support for the precise deformation of the robot's legs. When the legs undergo complex deformation, the motor can stably output torque, ensuring a smooth and precise deformation process. Secondly, the heat dissipation cavity 412 formed between the connecting plate 41 and the second motor 4 plays an important role in improving the overall heat dissipation performance of the mechanism. When the robot is running continuously or undergoing high-intensity deformation, key components such as the motor will generate a large amount of heat. The design of the heat dissipation cavity 412 can accelerate heat dissipation, prevent the motor from overheating, thereby extending the service life of the mechanism and improving overall operating efficiency.

[0039] The first connecting rod 51 has a first inclined portion 511 and a second inclined portion 512 at its two ends. The first inclined portion 511 is pivotally connected to the transmission output disc 33, and the second inclined portion 512 is pivotally connected to the first pivot portion 531. The first pivot portion 531 and the second pivot portion 532 are arranged on the same parallel line as the third connecting rod 53. One end of the third connecting rod 53 is provided with a travel wheel set 533, and the axle of the travel wheel set 533 is on the same parallel line as the first pivot portion 531 and the second pivot portion 532. In this embodiment, the first inclined portion 511 and the second inclined portion 512 at both ends of the first connecting rod 51 enable flexible pivoting with the transmission output disc 33 and the first pivot portion 531. This design not only enhances the motion flexibility of the linkage mechanism but also allows the entire leg deformation mechanism to respond to control commands more precisely and achieve more complex motion changes. Secondly, the first pivot 531 and the second pivot 532 are cleverly positioned on the same parallel line as the third link 53. This layout optimizes the spatial structure of the linkage mechanism, reduces unnecessary motion interference, and improves the stability and durability of the mechanism. Simultaneously, this design facilitates maintenance and adjustment of the linkage mechanism, reducing maintenance costs. Furthermore, the axle of the traveling wheel assembly 533 at one end of the third link 53 is aligned with the first pivot 531 and the second pivot 532, ensuring the stability and smoothness of the wheel assembly during travel. This design enables the robot to maintain good passability and maneuverability in various terrain conditions, improving the robot's adaptability and practicality.

[0040] A robot includes a leg-mounted transmission mechanism and a body. At least two sets of leg-mounted transmission mechanisms are provided, each set positioned on one side of the body. In this embodiment, by providing at least two sets of leg-mounted transmission mechanisms and arranging them on both sides of the body, the robot achieves high flexibility and stability in walking and movement. This bilateral symmetrical layout not only enhances the robot's balance but also allows it to adjust its gait more freely in complex terrain to adapt to different surface conditions. Secondly, the introduction of the leg-mounted transmission mechanism gives the robot a wider speed adjustment range. Whether rapid movement is required to perform a task or slow movement is needed for delicate operations, the robot can achieve precise speed control by adjusting the leg-mounted transmission mechanism, thereby meeting the needs of diverse application scenarios. Furthermore, this design also helps improve the robot's energy efficiency and endurance. By optimizing the transmission efficiency of the leg-mounted transmission mechanism, unnecessary energy loss is reduced, allowing the robot to maintain a longer power output when performing long-term tasks.
