The invention belongs to the technical field of robots, and discloses a hydraulic
biped robot mechanical leg lightweight design method based on
topological optimization, and the method comprises the steps: defining a three-dimensional geometric model according to an existing
biped robot mechanical leg space; building of a finite
element model is completed, definition of
topological optimization parameters is completed, and
topological optimization and post-
processing design are carried out; and through result analysis, the optimal configuration is screened for
simulation analysis. A
mathematical model of the mechanical leg of the hydraulic
biped robot is established based on a topological optimization method, and an initial
geometric space and an analysis model are determined according to design requirements. Weight reduction optimization is carried out on the
thigh assembly through topological optimization, and finally four topological structures are obtained, and the
mass of the four topological structures is 535.4 g, 494.3 g, 423.8 g and 569.2 g respectively. Through
simulation verification, the third scheme meets the requirements in the aspects of strength,
safety coefficient and service life, the optimization effect is better than that of the original design, and the feasibility and superiority of the optimization design are proved.
