Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bionic machine technology, and in particular to a multifunctional and simple bionic frog. Background Technology

[0002] Bionic robots are a product of the combination of bionics and robotics applications. Based on bionic principles, they are electromechanical systems with superior performance that mimic the morphology, structure, materials, and functions of living organisms. They are often designed specifically for particular tasks. According to their working environment, they can be divided into three types: land-based bionic robots, aerial bionic robots, and underwater bionic robots. Some research institutions have also developed amphibious, water-air-aquatic, and land-air-aquatic bionic robots with comprehensive applications.

[0003] To address the technical bottlenecks of traditional agricultural machinery, such as poor adaptability to complex terrain and low efficiency in multi-task collaboration, we innovate using biomimetic design concepts. Frogs, as creatures in nature that possess explosive jumping ability, flexible underwater swimming, and the ability to climb complex terrain, provide a good direction for robot design based on their movement mechanisms.

[0004] Current biomimetic frog robots are not yet fully mature and still have many problems. The main core problem is the lack of complete functions. For example, most biomimetic products only have simple jumping ability; the power supply method is single and consumes power quickly; and they do not have the ability to move on the water surface. Therefore, a multifunctional biomimetic frog robot is proposed to solve the current problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a multifunctional and convenient bionic frog. Through the installation of a triangular solar panel, the bionic frog machine can be reliably powered, not limited to traditional charging methods. Furthermore, by incorporating an airbag, the entire machine is able to float on the water surface.

[0006] The technical solution adopted to solve the above technical problems is: a multifunctional and simple biomimetic frog, including a body, multiple solar panels and a drive mechanism. The multiple solar panels are rotatably connected to the body through a rotating shaft. The solar panels are arranged in a triangular shape. After the multiple solar panels are rotated, they are folded into a cone structure. The drive mechanism is connected to the body and drives the solar panels to unfold.

[0007] Furthermore, it also includes airbags arranged around the periphery of the body.

[0008] Furthermore, it also includes front feet, an incomplete gear, a first rack, a tail, a T-shaped connecting rod, a connecting rod member, a spring, and a motor. Front feet are connected to both sides of the front of the machine body. The incomplete gear is rotatably connected to the machine body. The first rack is slidably connected to the machine body and engages with the incomplete gear. The tail is connected to the rear end of the first rack. T-shaped connecting rods are hinged to both sides of the tail. Connecting rod members correspond to the T-shaped connecting rods and are hinged to the T-shaped connecting rods. The connecting rod members are also hinged to the machine body. Springs are connected to both sides of the tail and are connected to the machine body. The motor is connected to the machine body and is linked to the incomplete gear via a gear set.

[0009] Furthermore, the drive mechanism includes a spur gear, a second rack, an electric push rod, and a hinge rod. Each of the rotating shafts is connected to a spur gear, and each spur gear meshes with a second rack. The second rack is slidably connected to the machine body. The electric push rod is connected to the machine body. The first end of the hinge rod is hinged to the output end of the electric push rod, and the second end of the hinge rod is hinged to the corresponding second rack.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a lever and a limiting block. Levers are rotatably connected to both sides of the tail. The rotating position of the lever is connected to the limiting block, which restricts the rotation angle of the lever.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model can provide reliable power support for the bionic frog machine by setting a triangular solar panel. It is not limited to the traditional charging method. When charging is needed, the solar panel is opened by the drive mechanism. In the working state, the solar panel is folded up to protect it. By setting an airbag, the whole machine has the ability to float on the water surface, thus making the bionic frog machine have the advantages of multiple functions. Attached Figure Description

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0020] like Figures 1-6 As shown, this embodiment provides a multifunctional and simple biomimetic frog, including a body 1, multiple solar panels 2 and a drive mechanism 4. The multiple solar panels 2 are rotatably connected to the body 1 through a rotating shaft 3. The solar panels 2 are arranged in a triangular shape. After the multiple solar panels 2 are rotated, they are folded into a cone structure. The drive mechanism 4 is connected to the body 1 and drives the solar panels 2 to unfold.

[0021] It also includes airbags 5, which are arranged around the perimeter of the body 1.

[0022] In the above embodiments, the triangular solar panel 2 provides reliable power support for the bionic frog robot, not limited to traditional charging methods. When charging is needed, the solar panel 2 is opened by the drive mechanism 4, and it is folded up for protection during operation. The airbag 5 enables the entire machine to float on water, thus giving the bionic frog robot a multi-functional advantage.

[0023] Specifically, it also includes front feet 6, incomplete gears 7, first rack 8, tail 9, T-shaped connecting rods 10, connecting rods 11, springs 12, and motors 13. Front feet 6 are connected to both sides of the front of the body 1. Incomplete gears 7 are rotatably connected to the body 1. First rack 8 is slidably connected to the body 1 and engages with incomplete gears 7. Tail 9 is connected to the rear end of the first rack 8. T-shaped connecting rods 10 are hinged to both sides of tail 9. Connecting rods 11 correspond to T-shaped connecting rods 10 and are hinged to T-shaped connecting rods 10. Connecting rods 11 are hinged to the body 1. Springs 12 are connected to both sides of tail 9 and are connected to the body 1. Motors 13 are connected to the body 1 and are linked to incomplete gears 7 through gear sets 14.

[0024] In the above embodiments, the motor 13 drives the gear set 14 to rotate, which in turn drives the incomplete gear 7 to rotate. The incomplete gear 7 drives the first rack 8 forward, and the first rack 8 drives the tail 9. At this time, the spring 12 is compressed and stores energy. When the incomplete gear 7 rotates to the point where it is not meshed with the first rack 8, the spring 12 releases its elastic force, and the overall machine jumps forward through the connecting rod 11.

[0025] Specifically, the drive mechanism 4 includes a spur gear 41, a second rack 42, an electric push rod 43, and a hinge rod 44. Each rotating shaft 3 is connected to a spur gear 41, and each spur gear 41 meshes with a second rack 42. The second rack 42 is slidably connected to the machine body 1. The electric push rod 43 is connected to the machine body 1. The first end of the hinge rod 44 is hinged to the output end of the electric push rod 43, and the second end of the hinge rod 44 is hinged to the corresponding second rack 42.

[0026] In the above embodiments, the electric push rod 43 pushes all the hinge rods 44, thereby driving the second rack 42 to slide, realizing the rotation of the spur gear 41, and thus realizing the rotation of the rotating shaft 3 and the solar panel 2, realizing the operation of folding, shrinking and unfolding the solar panel 2.

[0027] Specifically, it also includes a lever 15 and a limiting block 16. Lever 15 is rotatably connected to both sides of the tail 9. The rotation position of the lever 15 is connected to the limiting block 16, which limits the rotation angle of the lever 15.

[0028] In the above embodiments, when the bionic frog floats on the water surface, after the motor 13 drives it, the tail 9 moves forward relative to the body 1. At this time, the lever 15 rotates backward by 90 degrees due to the resistance of the water. When the spring 12 releases its stored energy, the tail 9 moves backward relative to the body 1, driving the lever 15. Due to the resistance of the water, the lever 15 rotates 90 degrees in the opposite direction and is limited by the limiting block 16. The unfolded lever 15 pushes the water and generates a reverse force, thereby pushing the body 1 to move on the water surface.

[0029] In practical applications, the main body 1 also includes necessary components such as a battery, controller, and video surveillance system.

[0030] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When on the ground, the rotation of the motor 13 drives the gear set 14 to move, which in turn causes the incomplete gear 7 to rotate. The incomplete gear 7 drives the first rack 8 to slide, and the first rack 8 drives the tail 9 to move forward relative to each other. At this time, the connecting rod 11 moves, and the spring 12 is compressed to store energy. When the incomplete gear 7 rotates to a state where it is not meshed with the first rack 8, the spring 12 releases the stored energy, and the tail 9 moves backward relative to each other, thus realizing the operation of jumping forward.

[0031] During charging, the electric push rod 43 drives the hinge rod 44 to move, which in turn drives the second rack 42 to slide, causing the spur gear 41 and the rotating shaft 3 to rotate, which in turn causes the solar panel 2 to rotate and unfold, performing photoelectric conversion charging.

[0032] When on the water surface, the airbag 5 provides good buoyancy for the body 1, allowing the body 1 to float on the water surface. When moving, the tail 9 moves forward, driving the lever 15 forward. Due to the resistance of the water, the lever 15 rotates 90 degrees backward. When the tail 9 moves relatively backward, the lever 15 pushes the water to generate a reverse force, thereby driving the body 1 forward on the water surface.

[0033] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model.
