Abstract

Provided is a plate spring type rigidity and flexibility driver based on transmission of gears and racks. The driver includes a machine frame, a power input and transmission mechanism and an output mechanism. The power input and transmission mechanism includes two motors, the gears, the racks, a rack bracket, connecting rods and sliding blocks; the output mechanism includes an output cylinder, plate springs, two output plates and output plate connectors, and the plate springs are installed on the output cylinder and constitute a moving pair along with the sliding blocks; one end of each outputplate is fixedly connected to the output cylinder, and the other ends of the output plates are fixedly connected with each other through the output cylinder. By adopting a double-motor parallelly-connected adversarial structure, the output response is faster; by adopting the plate springs as elastic elements, a variable rigidity module structure of the driver is much simpler, and the driver is compact in structure and highly symmetrical.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of flexible driving, in particular to a leaf spring type variable stiffness flexible driver based on rack and pinion transmission. Background technique [0002] There are mainly the following types of motion drive methods in the field of robotics, such as pneumatic drive, hydraulic drive, and motor drive. Motor drive has become a main drive method because of its advantages such as accurate control, high adjustment precision, and quick response. With the development of robot technology, more and more attention has been paid to the research and development of rehabilitation robots and bionic service robots. These robots also have higher requirements for the safety and adaptability to the environment in the process of human-computer interaction. However, the traditional motor drive is a rigid drive. During the process of human-computer interaction, there is a high possibility of rigid collision with the enviro...
