26 results about "Leg mechanism" patented technology

A leg mechanism (walking mechanism) is a mechanical system designed to provide a propulsive force by intermittent frictional contact with the ground. This is in contrast with wheels or continuous tracks which are intended to maintain continuous frictional contact with the ground. Mechanical legs are linkages that can have one or more actuators, and can perform simple planar or complex motion. Compared to a wheel, a leg mechanism is potentially better fitted to uneven terrain, as it can step over obstacles..

A prefabricated box-type substation enclosure structure

This utility model provides a prefabricated box-type substation enclosure structure, including a substation body and multiple support leg mechanisms. Multiple mounting rings are horizontally fixedly connected to the bottom end of the inner surface of the substation body, and the multiple support leg mechanisms are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom ends of the mounting rings. This prefabricated box-type substation enclosure structure, by setting multiple support leg mechanisms, allows for individual adjustment of the multiple support leg structures. During adjustment, the height of each support leg can be adjusted by rotating the threaded sleeve. Furthermore, during actual installation, because the rotating seat at the bottom of the threaded sleeve rotates horizontally while the connecting seat rotates vertically, a structure similar to a caster wheel is formed, adapting to various road surfaces. This makes installation more convenient and ensures the enclosure remains level during later use, thereby improving the practicality of the substation.

Mechanical load-bearing exoskeleton system based on ground reaction force self-triggering

This application belongs to the field of wearable robot technology, specifically providing a mechanical load-bearing exoskeleton system based on ground reaction force self-triggering. The exoskeleton system includes an upper body mechanism, a thigh mechanism, a knee joint mechanism, a lower leg mechanism, and a foot mechanism. The knee joint mechanism includes a knee joint support, a locking component, and a transmission assembly. When the foot mechanism touches the ground and the sole of the foot is compressed and deformed by the ground reaction force, the thigh mechanism slides downward relative to the knee joint support. The transmission assembly drives the locking component to slide towards the thigh mechanism and connect with it, thereby locking the knee joint mechanism. The compression deformation of the sole of the foot caused by the ground reaction force is used as a trigger signal to automatically trigger the locking of the knee joint mechanism. The knee joint mechanism can lock at any reasonable angle, so that when the wearer is going up or down slopes, climbing stairs, or bending their knees for cover, the exoskeleton system can still effectively assist the human body in bearing the load by locking the knee joint mechanism.

A bionic micro quadrupedal crawling robot

A biomimetic miniature quadrupedal crawling robot includes a forebody, a hindbody, a front linked leg mechanism, a rear linked leg mechanism, a quadrupedal coupling drive mechanism, and a steering actuator. The quadrupedal coupling drive mechanism is located between the front and rear linked leg mechanisms, and the steering actuator is located between the forebody and hindbody. The robot's overall motion is achieved by only two motors: one motor for walking and the other for steering. Compared to traditional legged robots, this significantly reduces the number of motors used, effectively lowering the robot's control complexity and energy consumption. It can further reduce the robot's size and weight, and improve its ability to navigate narrow terrain. Compared to legged robots that use servo motors as joint actuators, the quadrupedal coupling reduces control complexity while avoiding gait errors in the fore and hind legs, reducing the weight and size of the quadrupeds, effectively improving motion stability and load-bearing capacity, and thus enhancing its adaptability to confined spaces.
