The invention discloses an energy-saving walking leg mechanism simulating ostrich hindlimb movement function characteristic. The energy-saving walking leg mechanism comprises a rack, a crank connection rod mechanism, a rebounding mechanism and a toe, wherein the crank connection rod mechanism comprises a crank, a thigh and a rocking rod; the rebounding mechanism comprises a fixed sliding block, a crus, a movable sliding block, a connection rod, a spring, a baffle plate, a ratchet mechanism, a brake cable, an angle limiter and metatarsal bones. The energy-saving walking leg mechanism is designed on the basis of the size parameters of the ostrich hindlimb and the rebounding characteristics of joints between ostrich tarsal bones; an energy-saving and efficient walking leg is designed by simulating the ostrich hindlimb movement; the metatarsal bones automatically stretch by using the rebounding force generated by compressing the spring, so that the energy loss is reduced; the energy-saving and efficient walking leg simulating ostrich hindlimb movement function characteristic can achieve the energy-saving and efficient purpose.
