Problems solved by technology

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problem of poor reliability in the active vibration control used to suppress the vibration of flexible robots; the use of semi-active vibration control requires additional control elements such as motors, which has the problems of large volume and complex structure; the use of ordinary rubber materials. The passive vibration damping elastic element has the problems of unstable properties and limited life
The problem that the passive vibration damping elastic element made of only metal rubber without strain gauge design cannot accurately estimate the moment

Abstract

The invention discloses a moment-measuring compact metallic rubber elastic element of a flexible robot joint, and relates to a passive damping elastic element. The moment-measuring compact metallic rubber elastic element is used for solving the problems that active vibration control adopted for suppressing flexible robot vibration at present is poor in reliability, when semi-active control is adopted, control elements such as motors need to be additionally arranged, thus, the size is large, the structure is complex, passive damping elastic elements made from common rubber materials are unstable in performance and limited in service life, and passive damping elastic elements of the design with metallic rubber only without strain gages cannot accurately estimate moment. A plurality of resistance strain gages are mounted on an outer ring basic body, an inner ring basic body is buckled to the outer ring basic body, a plurality of metallic rubber sheets are mounted in a regional space defined by the outer ring basic body and the inner ring basic body after buckling, and a baffle is mounted on the outer ring basic body in a covering mode. The joint driver for the flexible robot joint hasboth the moment sensing function and the passive damping function.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a rotation-type vibration-damping elastic element, in particular to a passive vibration-damping elastic element integrated with torque sensing and vibration-damping characteristics used on a joint of a flexible robot, and belongs to the field of robots. Background technique [0002] With the continuous expansion of robot application fields, more and more robots are out of the isolation room and working in the environment where humans exist, which puts forward high requirements for the safety of robot operation. In order to ensure the safety of human beings, soft robots using serial elastic actuators are coming out continuously. By connecting flexible components such as torsion springs in series between the output end of the motor reducer of the robot joint and the load, the output impedance of the robot is reduced and the safety of the robot is improved. However, the improvement of the flexibility of the robot joints makes the...
