Problems solved by technology

Traditional robot drive methods, such as rigid drive mechanisms such as wheel, leg, and swing walk, have shown unique advantages in some applications, but they are not suitable for unstructured applications such as pipeline maintenance, medical diagnosis and treatment, ruin search and rescue, and military reconnaissance. In environmental applications, due to the narrow and changeable working environment and various unknown obstacles, it is relatively difficult for the robot to move autonomously and overcome obstacles, and may not be able to reach the work site

Abstract

The invention discloses a spherical transformable soft robot, which is characterized by comprising a spherical shell; the spherical shell comprises multiple hexagonal spherical face splicing parts and multiple pentagonal spherical face splicing parts, which are mutually spliced; each pentagonal spherical face splicing part and five hexagonal splicing parts form five splicing edges; a driving pipe is arranged inside the pentagonal spherical face splicing parts and the hexagonal spherical parts; and each hexagonal spherical face splicing part and each pentagonal splicing face part comprise a soft outer wall and non-compressible fluid in the soft outer wall respectively. The spherical transformable soft robot can be continuously transformed, can be conveniently applied in an unstructured occasion and is flexible in advancing and steering.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of robots, and in particular relates to a spherical deformable soft robot. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of science and technology, robots have been widely used in various fields of society, such as industry, medical treatment, agriculture, military and disaster relief. Traditional robot drive methods, such as rigid drive mechanisms such as wheel, leg, and swing walk, have shown unique advantages in some applications, but they are not suitable for unstructured applications such as pipeline maintenance, medical diagnosis and treatment, ruin search and rescue, and military reconnaissance. In environmental applications, because the working environment is narrow, changeable and there are various unknown obstacles, it is relatively difficult for the robot to move autonomously and overcome obstacles, and it may not be possible to reach the work site. Inspired by the perfect fusion ...
