Embodiment 1

[0024] In this embodiment, a multi-industrial manipulator controller based on a double-layer CPG is used for heavy object handling operations. In industrial production, some large and heavy objects are difficult to complete the handling operation by relying on a single industrial robot arm, and require the coordination of multiple industrial robot arms to complete the handling. Initially, each industrial robot arm approaches the heavy object according to the initialization setting. When the end effector of one of the multiple industrial manipulators is in contact with the heavy object, the contact signal is transmitted to the rhythm generator corresponding to the manipulator through the tactile sensor of the industrial manipulator contacting the heavy object. The phase coordination layer of the multi-industrial manipulator controller makes a decision based on the signal input from the rhythm generator of the industrial manipulator that is in contact with the heavy object, so t...

Embodiment 2

[0026]In this embodiment, a multi-industrial manipulator controller based on a double-layer CPG is used to perform synchronous operation of multi-industrial manipulators. In industrial production, sometimes multiple industrial manipulators need to operate synchronously. The multi-industrial manipulator controller can simultaneously adjust the phase coordination layer and motion mode generation layer of the controlled multiple industrial manipulators to ensure that each industrial manipulator maintains Highly consistent synchronous operations. For the phase coordination layer, at the beginning, the rhythm generators of each industrial robot arm in the phase coordination layer complete phase sequence locking, so that each industrial robot arm keeps moving synchronously. When asynchronous movement occurs, the phase coordination layer will adjust according to the initial phase sequence lock, so that the industrial mechanical arms will maintain synchronous movement again, and the p...

Embodiment 3

[0028] In this embodiment, a multi-industrial manipulator controller based on a double-layer CPG is used to control the sequential operation of multiple industrial manipulators. In industrial production, sometimes multiple industrial robotic arms are required to perform operations in a certain sequence, such as machine assembly and assembly of workpieces. Initially, according to the initialization settings and actual requirements, one or more industrial manipulators of each industrial manipulator perform work. When the industrial manipulator performing the work completes the set operation, the tactile sensor of the end effector of the industrial manipulator The signal is transmitted to the corresponding rhythm generator, and the phase coordination layer of the multi-industrial manipulator makes a decision according to the signal input of the end effector of the industrial manipulator, so that the industrial manipulator that has completed the set operation is reset, and at the s...

Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-industrial-manipulator controller based on a double-layer CPG (central pattern generator). A structure similar to a layered neural network, which the ganglion controlling activities of invertebrates has and which a central nervous system controlling activities of vertebrates has, is adopted, features of a multi-industrial-manipulator control system and those of a single industrial manipulator are combined, and collective coordination and information interaction of multiple industrial manipulators are efficiently synergic. Flexible joints and a rich sensor system are adopted, information utilization rate of the multiple industrial manipulators is increased, and the joints of the industrial manipulators are effectively controlled, so that the system has high reliability and stability. The sensor system has the ability of autokinetic movement while the industrial-manipulator is enabled to have sufficient dynamic performance and degree of freedom. The multi-industrial-manipulator controller is composed of a phase coordination layer and a motion pattern generation layer; the phase coordination layer allows phase sequence locking for each industrial manipulator; the motion pattern generation layer allows trajectory planning and attitude adjustment for each industrial manipulator.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of automatic control, and in particular relates to a multi-industrial manipulator controller based on a double-layer CPG. Background technique [0002] The central pattern generator (Central Pattern Generator, CPG) is a class of neuronal networks in the central nervous system of invertebrates and vertebrates, which can produce rhythmic behavior without rhythmic control or feedback input. , such as walking, swimming, etc. The movement of invertebrates is controlled by the ganglion, and the movement of vertebrates is controlled by the central nervous system. The latest research shows that the ganglion and the central nervous system of animals have layered properties, which can be divided into the rhythm generation layer and the movement pattern generation layer. [0003] In industrial production, in the face of increasingly heavy work tasks, it may be difficult or inefficient to use a complex and expensive si...
