Embodiment Construction

[0022] As shown in Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4, a three-drive spherical robot includes a spherical shell and a drive motor. The spherical shell 1 is composed of two equal-sized hemispherical shells; the inner surface of the spherical shell 1 is provided with a track 2, the outer surface of the track 2 is a closed spherical strip 21, and the center of the inner surface is provided with a ring rack 22, and the ring rack 22 is two The sides are respectively provided with annular recesses 23; a walking support 3 is connected with the track 2 through the walking wheels 31 meshed with the annular rack 22, and the walking support 3 is also provided with a walking support guide wheel 32, and the walking support 3 Track motor 33 is housed on the support 3; Also comprise a rectangular ball frame 4, its one end links to each other with walking support 3 by bearing, and the other end links to each other with a rotating bracket 6 by long-axis motor 5, and described ball frame 4 can be connected w...

Abstract

The invention discloses a three-drive spherical robot which comprises a circle spherical shell and a drive motor; wherein, a track is arranged on the inner surface of the spherical shell; an annular rack is arranged on the inner surface of the track; a walking bracket is connected with the track by a road wheel engaged with the rack; a walking bracket guide wheel is arranged on the walking bracket as well; the walking bracket is provided with a track motor and comprises a spherical frame as well; one end of the spherical frame is connected with the walking bracket by a bearing and the other end is connected with a rotating bracket by a long axis motor; a short-axis motor is axially arranged at the spherical frame; a heavy pendulum is axially arranged at the short-axis motor; the rotating bracket is connected with the track by the guide wheel arranged at the walking bracket. The three-drive spherical robot not only moves flexibly, but also realizes motion redundancy; under the situation that one of a track axis motor drive or a short axis motor drive goes wrong, the rest two drives can still be used for realizing omnidirectional rolling, namely realizing the system fault tolerance by a configuration design.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a spherical robot, in particular to a flexible motion redundant three-drive spherical robot. Background technique [0002] At present, mobile robots are more and more widely used in space exploration, military exploration, civil fire protection, anti-terrorism and disaster relief, and field operations. Spherical mobile robot is a new structural form of mobile robot that has only appeared in the past ten years at home and abroad. It is a type of mobile robot system that includes both the drive mechanism and the control system in a spherical shell and uses the spherical shell as a walking device. Compared with traditional mobile robots such as wheeled, legged and tracked, the spherical mobile robot is a mobile robot with novel structure, flexible movement and high movement efficiency. 1) The movement is the most flexible. Omni-directional drive can be achieved with zero turning radius. 2) Anti-dumping. The walking mechanism i...
