Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of humanoid service robots, and particularly relates to a tail structure and a robot. In the tail structure, a first rod is connected to a robot body, a second rod is hinged to the first rod around the axis of the first rod, a tail shell is mounted on the second rod, and the two ends of an elastic piece are connected to the first rod and the second rodrespectively. When the robot body moves, the second rod can swing, the second rod drives the tail shell to swing, and the elastic piece is twisted to store energy in the process. When the robot body stops moving, that is, when the external force making the second rod swing disappears, the second rod can rotate to be restored under the action of the elastic piece, and the tail shell is rotated to be restored along with the second rod. Therefore, the flexibility of the tail in the moving process of the robot is improved, the tail shell can dynamically swing along with the robot body, the effectthat the tail of an animal swings while the animal walks is simulated, and the problem is effectively solved that the tail of an existing robot is inflexible and stiff.

Description

technical field [0001] The application belongs to the technical field of humanoid service robots, and in particular relates to a tail structure and a robot. Background technique [0002] In the current humanoid robot or toy, when configuring the tail, the tail part is usually fixed on the robot body. However, the fixed tail lacks the agility of movement, looks dull and has a poor sense of skeuomorphism. Contents of the invention [0003] The purpose of the embodiments of the present application is to provide a tail structure and a robot, so as to solve the technical problem that the fixed tail in the existing robot has no sense of agility. [0004] An embodiment of the present application provides a tail structure, including: [0005] The first rod is used to connect the body of the robot; [0006] The second rod is hinged to one end of the first rod, and the hinge axis between the second rod and the first rod coincides with the axis of the first rod; [0007] an elast...
