[0060] In the embodiment, the first driver and the second driver can be a pneumatic cylinder or an electric cylinder, or a small steering engine or motor, etc. The first driver can drive the thigh 210 to rotate horizontally relative to the shell 100, so that the multi-legged robot can turn and move forward. The second driver can drive the shank 230 to rotate vertically relative to the thigh 210, so that the shank 230 can be lifted and then the thigh 210 is driven to rotate horizontally by the first driver, so that the multi-legged robot can move forward, backward or turn, etc.

[0070] The first wire 223 can be a nylon rope. The first motor 221 can be a linear motor, which is used as a power device and realizes contraction in different directions by winding of the first guide wheel 222 and the first wire 223. When the first motor 221 rotates in a forward direction, the right first guide wheel 222 rotates counterclockwise to drive the right nylon rope to contract, and at this time, the first wire 223 transmits power to the thigh 210, so that the force direction of the thigh 210 changes to rotate. Bearings are used to make the transmission performance of the connecting part and the power transmission part better, so that the walking action can be completed. The wire wheel transmission mechanism is arranged in the direction of the three shafts of each mechanical leg 200, so that the movement mode of the mechanical leg 200 is more diversified, and the movement of the mechanical leg 200 is more flexible.

[0071] The first motor 221 is distributed at the connecting part of the shell 100 and the thigh 210. Unlike the traditional multi-legged robot driven by a large and high-cost steering engine, the device is driven by a linear motor, which is more conducive to the multi-legged robot working in a small space and moving more conveniently.

[0078] The second wire 256 can be a nylon rope. The driver can be a linear motor, which is a power device, and realizes contraction in different directions by winding of the second guide wheel 245 and the second wire 256. When the second motor 241 rotates forward, the vertical second guide wheel 245 rotates counterclockwise to drive the upper nylon rope to contract, at which time the second wire 256 transmits power to the shank 230, the force direction of the shank 230 changes to rotate, bearings are used to make the transmission performance of the connecting part and the power transmission part better, and the lifting action can be completed. The wire wheel transmission mechanism is arranged in the direction of the three shafts of each mechanical leg 200, so that the movement mode of the mechanical leg 200 is more diversified, and the action of the mechanical leg 200 is more flexible.

[0079] The driver is distributed in the connecting part of the shank 230 and the thigh 210. Unlike the traditional multi-legged robot driven by a large and high-cost steering engine, the device is driven by a linear motor, which is more conducive to the multi-legged robot to work in a small space, and the action is more portable. When the multi-legged robot works, the first motor 221 in the shell 100 drives the first guide wheel 222 to start rotating, the contraction of the first wire 223 is controlled according to the rotation direction and angle of the first motor 221, the lifting movement of the mechanical leg 200 in the vertical direction is completed, and then the lifting of the mechanical leg 200 is controlled according to the situation and the issued instruction in different scenes and working spaces, so as to avoid obstacles, and the mechanical leg 200 can also move freely on a working ground with a slope or ruggedness. The driving sequence and rotation direction of the motor can be flexibly matched with each mechanical structure of the device through system control to realize accurate attitude and position control.

[0087] A second gear 243 is arranged on the rotating shaft 244, and the first gear 242 and the second gear 243 are engaged with each other.

[0088] In the embodiment, the motor drive distributed in the connecting part of the thigh 210 and the lower leg 230 of the mechanical leg 200 drives the rotation of the second guide wheel 245 through the transmission of the first gear 242 and the second gear 243, controls the contraction of the second wire rope 256 according to the rotation direction and angle of the second motor 241, pulls the lower leg 230, and completes the lifting movement of the mechanical leg 200 in the vertical direction, so as to control the multi-legged robot to lift the mechanical leg according to the situation and the issued instruction in different scenes and working spaces, avoid obstacles, and also can freely move on the working ground with slope or ruggedness.

[0091] In some embodiments of the present application, further comprising:

[0092] A cover 300, the shell 100 has a containing cavity and an opening communicating with the containing cavity, and the cover 300 can be covered on the opening.

[0093] In the embodiment, in order to facilitate the transportation of the multi-legged robot, the cover 300 is arranged at the containing cavity communicating opening of the shell 100, and the opening and covering of the cover 300 are used to take and place the articles in the containing cavity.

[0094] The shell 100 of the multi-legged robot is designed with certain consideration, and the space for motor assembly, circuit board assembly and material storage is reserved to achieve the maximum utilization with the minimum space. Considering the factors such as gravity and material transportation security, the material storage space is designed in the large-area empty box in the middle of the shell 100, so that the multi-legged robot is more uniform in stress during the transportation of materials, and the hard shell 100 has the effect of protecting the transported materials.

The pressure on the sole of the multi-legged robot is sensed by the sensor, and then these signals are converted into electrical signals that can be read by the multi-legged robot control system. When the sensor senses that the sole of the multi-legged robot is subjected to a greater pressure, the multi-legged robot can immediately adjust the walking posture to maintain balance. This achieves multi-legged robot gait control and prevents the multi-legged robot from slipping during walking.

[0098] In some embodiments of the present application, further comprising:

[0104] The multi-legged robot of the present embodiment uses a wire-driven approach to replace the traditional servo-driven method, which is an innovative solution to the problem of excessive size in the design of a six-legged robot. Wire-driven systems use thin wires to transmit power, which have several significant advantages over traditional servo-driven methods. Wire-driven systems are generally smaller and lighter in size. This design allows the overall size of the multi-legged robot to be reduced while maintaining or even improving its performance. This feature of wire-driven mechanisms is particularly suitable for application scenarios that require high flexibility and maneuverability, such as operating in tight spaces or performing delicate tasks. Wire-driven systems provide higher mechanical precision and control sensitivity. By precisely controlling the tension and length of the wires, finer motion control can be achieved, thereby improving the multi-legged robot's ability to operate in complex environments. This is particularly important for six-legged robots that need to perform precise operations or move on irregular terrain. Wire-driven methods can also lead to improved energy efficiency. Since the wires themselves are lightweight, the energy required to drive such systems is generally lower than traditional servo systems, which helps to extend the running time of the multi-legged robot, especially in battery-powered scenarios.

[0105] The various embodiments described in this specification are presented by way of example, and each embodiment describes a specific feature that is not necessarily present in other embodiments. The various embodiments described in this specification can be combined in any way.

[0106] The above description of disclosed embodiments enables one of ordinary skill in the art to make and use the application. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the generic principles defined herein can be applied to other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the application. Thus, the present application is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown herein but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
