[0025] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Example:

[0027] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 5 The present invention discloses an integrated energy storage and release device for a robot with unidirectional motion, including a guide rail 1, a jumping linkage rotatably arranged on the outer side wall of the guide rail 1, a slide groove 2 opened inside the guide rail 1, a limit plate 3 arranged at both ends of the slide groove 2, a drive screw 4 arranged between the two limit plates 3, a servo motor 5 arranged at one end of the slide groove 2, and the output shaft of the servo motor 5 connected to the drive screw 4.

[0028] The inside of the slide 2 is equipped with a power storage slider 6, which is threadedly engaged with the drive screw 4. The top of the power storage slider 6 is equipped with an energy storage link 7, and both ends of the energy storage link 7 are equipped with power storage springs 8. The ends of the two power storage springs 8 away from the energy storage link 7 are connected to a release link 9. The top of the jump link is rotatably connected to the release link 9.

[0029] The top end of the guide rail 1 is provided with a clamping assembly 10 for limiting the release connecting rod 9, and the side of the force storage slider 6 facing the clamping assembly 10 is provided with a release assembly 11 for adjusting the release force of the force storage spring 8.

[0030] In the embodiment, the guide rail 1 is used to guide the movement of the force storage slider 6, and in the initial state, as shown in the figure, the release connecting rod 9 is located at the top side of the clamping assembly 10. Figure 1 When the driving screw 4 is driven to rotate by the servo motor 5, the force storage slider 6 is pushed to move in thread cooperation with the driving screw 4, thereby stretching the force storage spring 8, as shown in the figure. Figure 2 With the extension of the force storage spring 8, the energy storage purpose is achieved.

[0031] When the force storage slider 6 continues to move and the release assembly 11 is separated from the clamping assembly 10, the force storage spring 8 pulls the release connecting rod 9 to move, as shown in the figure. Figure 3 When the force storage spring 8 is contracted and pulls the release connecting rod 9 to move, the jumping connecting rod can be swung, so that the energy released by the force storage spring 8 acts on the ground to achieve the purpose of jumping.

[0032] In the process of energy storage, as shown in the figure, Figures 1 to 2 only the force storage spring 8 is stretched and the position of the force storage slider 6 is moved, and the relative position of the guide rail 1 and the jumping connecting rod does not change, so that when the mechanism is applied in a jumping robot, the leg mechanism (i.e. the jumping connecting rod) of the robot can always be in a squatting and retracting state and is not affected by the energy storage process.

[0033] The stretching and energy storage direction of the force storage spring 8 is the same as the contraction and energy release direction, and the energy storage and triggering are integrated by the clamping assembly 10 and the release assembly 11, which reduces the use of additional control elements and improves the reliability and flexibility of the system.

[0036] In further preferable embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the clamping assembly 10 comprises two extension portions 101 arranged at the two sides of the guide rail 1 respectively, and the top ends of the extension portions 101 are jointly provided with a rotating shaft 102, and the outer peripheral wall of the rotating shaft 102 is fixedly provided with a buckle 103.

[0037] In the present embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 , during the extension of the tension spring 83 to the release, and when the position of the force storage slider 6 is close to the buckle 103, the release assembly 11 is in contact with the bottom end of the buckle 103 for providing a supporting force to the buckle 103, the position of the force storage slider 6 gradually moves away from the buckle 103, and when the force storage slider 6 is away from the buckle 103 by a certain distance, the release assembly 11 moves out of the bottom end of the buckle 103, the supporting force of the release assembly 11 to the bottom end of the buckle 103 disappears, at this time, the potential energy accumulated by the tension spring 83 during the stretching is released, driving the buckle 103 to deflect, as shown in Figure 3 , at this time, the supporting force of the buckle 103 to the release connecting rod 9 disappears, so as to achieve the purpose of deflecting the jumping connecting rod by the contraction of the tension spring 83, and the stretching energy storage direction of the tension spring 83 is the same as the contraction and energy release direction.

[0039] In the present embodiment, through the arrangement of the reset torsional springs 104, after the tension spring 83 is released, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , at this time, through the arrangement of the torsional springs, the buckle 103 is pulled again to reset, so that it can clamp the release connecting rod 9 again when the force storage slider 6 is reset.

[0042] The implementation principle of the above embodiment is that when the servo motor 5 drives the driving screw 4 to rotate, the force storage slider 6 threaded with the driving screw 4 is moved, and the force storage spring 8 is stretched, so that the energy storage purpose is achieved.

[0043] When the force storage slider 6 continuously moves and the release assembly 11 is separated from the clamping assembly 10, the force storage spring 8 pulls the release connecting rod 9 to move, when the force storage spring 8 contracts and pulls the release connecting rod 9 to move, the jump connecting rod is swung, so that the energy released by the force storage spring 8 acts on the ground, and the purpose of jumping is achieved.
