The invention belongs to the related technical field of bionic
flapping-wing robots, and discloses a water-air amphibious bionic
flapping-wing
robot with chordwise bimodal
flapping wings, which comprises a main body, the chordwise bimodal flapping wings, an empennage, a cross-medium mechanism, a
control unit and a flexible
skin, the main
machine body is a main supporting component of the
robot, and the chordwise bimodal flapping wings are installed on the left side and the right side of the main
machine body and oscillate up and down in a reciprocating mode to drive the flexible
skin covering the chordwise bimodal flapping wings to generate power. The empennage is fixed to the rear end of the main
fuselage to assist the
robot in posture adjustment. The cross-medium mechanism is installed at the front end of the main
machine body and used for providing impulsive force for cross-medium movement of the robot. And the
control unit is connected with each component through a
signal line. The bionic flapping-wing robot has an overwater
motion mode and an
underwater motion mode in the chordwise direction of the
flapping wing, the overwater
motion mode is beneficial to generation of lift force in the air, the
underwater motion mode is beneficial to reduction of
power consumption in water and concentration of power in the thrust direction, and the use environment and scene of the bionic flapping-wing robot are expanded.
