Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bionic robot technology, and in particular to a tensioning integral bionic robot. Background Technology

[0002] There is a market demand for unmanned operations in complex terrains such as mountains, leading to the development of solutions such as mountain robots. Robots for mountain operations include wheeled, legged, and tracked robots. Due to the rigid connections of their components, their structure is easily damaged by bumps and collisions. Furthermore, these robots are power-intensive, generally relying on electric drives, which increases energy consumption and carrying capacity in complex terrain. Therefore, these robots have poor environmental adaptability, face challenges in endurance, and have high production and recycling costs. Currently, there is a market need for a mountain operation platform that is environmentally adaptable, has good mobility, is energy-efficient, and has controllable costs.

[0003] Tensed monolithic structures are spatial force-bearing structural systems composed of compression members and tension cables. In the past, tensile monolithic structures were generally applied in the fields of art and architecture. In recent years, scholars have been researching movable tensile monolithic structures for use in unstructured environments, such as aerospace. Among them, a six-bar tensile monolithic robot is a quasi-icosahedral spatial network structure composed of six rigid compression members and flexible tension cables. This six-bar tensile monolithic robot typically serves as a platform, moving by changing its shape, and its structural form provides resistance to impact loads. For example, in a prior application (patent number CN 108082318A) of a flexible tensile monolithic robot with six bars and thirty cables, various transformations are possible, but it remains in a three-dimensional state and cannot further change its shape. Therefore, those skilled in the art are dedicated to developing a tensile monolithic biomimetic robot capable of multiple morphological changes, thus improving the adaptability of biomimetic robots. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a tensioned integral bionic robot that can achieve multiple morphological changes and improve the adaptability of the bionic robot.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows:

[0006] A tensioned integral bionic robot, characterized in that: it includes

[0007] A first pressure rod and a first driver and a second driver installed at both ends of the first pressure rod, and a third driver is also installed in the middle of the first pressure rod;

[0014] It also includes a controller located in the middle of the geometry formed by each pressure bar, the controller being electrically connected to each actuator, and a cable assembly being installed between each actuator.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: multiple pressure rods and multiple actuators installed on the pressure rods, and the controller controls the operation of each actuator to form a variety of structures.

[0016] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.

[0017] Furthermore, the cable assembly includes

[0051] Furthermore, each actuator is also connected to a tension diaphragm.

[0052] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further scheme is that the tension membrane increases the wind-receiving area of ​​the bionic robot.

[0053] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0054] 1. Compared with the rigid connection structures of existing wheeled and legged robots used in mountain operations, the dynamic tensioned integral structure of this application has better environmental adaptability, specifically reflected in better robustness, fault tolerance, higher strength-to-mass ratio, and flexibility. This structure can buffer collisions, impacts, or loads, and can redistribute forces according to its structural topology, exhibiting good adaptability and robustness in complex terrains with large elevation differences. Furthermore, since the rods and ropes in the tensioned integral structure are interconnected and interact with each other, the damage to a single driving component has little impact on the entire structure, giving it a certain degree of fault tolerance. At the same time, the external forces and loads on this structure are decomposed through multiple paths and distributed to various nodes on the outer side, avoiding the occurrence of stress concentration nodes and exhibiting a high strength-to-mass ratio. In addition, this structure is small in size, foldable, and occupies less space during storage and transportation. Moreover, the modular design of the units means that the pressure-bearing elements in the tensioned integral structure usually have the same structure, and a large number of identical stable modules or units can be used to construct it, resulting in high flexibility.

[0055] 2. Compared to existing wheeled and legged robots used in mountain operations and ordinary tensioning robots, which rely on a single power source, this application offers two driving modes, improving mobility while reducing energy consumption and carrying capacity. The robot can achieve two motion modes: wind-driven rolling or autonomous cable-driven. In wind-driven mode, the actuator retracts the cable, compressing its volume to reduce the contact area with the wind, allowing it to stay stationary. The actuator releases the cable, restoring its three-dimensional shape and increasing the contact area with the wind, enabling it to roll forward. Due to its large size and small mass, it can move faster than with autonomous drive. In autonomous drive mode, the robot, under the control of a central control box, controls the actuator to operate, performing OC-step and CO-step gaits through cable contraction and release. The two motion modes can be combined and selected according to the environment and specific needs. By switching between stationary, wind-driven rolling, and autonomous drive states, a mountain operation platform with good environmental adaptability, adjustable stiffness, energy saving, and low cost is achieved.

[0056] 3. This application employs a cable-driven method with a single actuator, resulting in fewer actuators and better structural stability. It avoids the structural instability and collapse caused by deformation and relaxation during lever-driven operation, as well as the problem of a large number of lever-cable hybrid actuators. Compared to lever-driven operation, because the rigid cable has a constant length and is always under tension, changing the length of the lever causes the connecting ropes at both ends to maintain their original length, leading to structural deformation and relaxation, and ultimately, the loss of tension and structural collapse. In lever-cable hybrid operation, the simultaneous changes in the lever and cable result in significant structural deformation. While this is beneficial for changing the center of gravity, it makes determining the robot's direction of motion much more difficult. Furthermore, the increased number of actuators increases structural weight, reduces driving efficiency, and increases control difficulty. In contrast, the cable-driven method maintains tension regardless of how the rope length is changed, preventing structural instability. It also requires fewer actuators, simplifies control, and improves motion efficiency. Attached Figure Description

The tension diaphragm 8 hardly undergoes any deformation during the switching between flat and three-dimensional modes of the bionic robot. Example 1

[0078] OC-step structure

[0079] like Figure 6 As shown, the robot's rolling direction is determined by the rotation direction of the pressure bar, which serves as the rotation axis. This means the robot can rotate around any one of the three sides of the base triangle. Different rotation axes result in different rolling directions. Therefore, a single rolling gait of a biomimetic robot has three potential motion directions. When the initial stable state is based on an open isosceles triangle, the robot can rotate to two adjacent closed equilateral triangles through a single rolling gait, thus generating an OC-step, as shown in the table below:

[0080]

[0081] Table 1 OC-step driving strategy Example 2

[0082] CO-step structure

[0083] like Figure 6 As shown, when the movement starts from a closed equilateral triangle as the base triangle, the robot can rotate to three adjacent open isosceles triangles through a rolling gait, thus generating a CO-step as shown in the table below.

[0084]

[0085] Table 2 CO-step driving strategies

[0086] Examples 1 and 2 can be further illustrated as follows:

[0087] Wind-driven: Operated by the actuators at the central nodes, this device can roll or stop using wind power by changing its shape. By operating the actuators at all the central nodes to contract or release the length of the cables, the robot can switch between flat and three-dimensional states. When the actuators at the central nodes rotate clockwise, the connected cables are tightened, and the robot compresses into a flat state, reducing its contact area with the wind and remaining stationary. Subsequently, when the actuators at the central nodes rotate counterclockwise, the connected cables are released, and the robot returns to a three-dimensional state, increasing the contact area between the tension membrane and the wind, allowing it to roll under wind pressure.

[0088] Autonomous drive: The robot can roll forward autonomously by pulling cables through the actuators at the end nodes, and only a single actuator is required, making control simple.

[0089] When the robot is in its initial stable state, all drive cables are fully extended. Once the rotation axis is determined, the movement begins. Some actuators shorten the length of their corresponding drive cables, causing a certain pressure bar, which acts as the roll axis, to rotate. This causes the structure to deform and break its self-balancing state. The ground projection of the structure's center of mass shifts away from the ground, thus driving the structure to roll. Once the structure lands and stabilizes, the actuators reverse and release the cables to their original length, restoring the icosahedral-like balanced structure. This completes one step of the roll motion.
