Embodiment Construction

[0028] Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. It should be emphasized that the following description is only exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of the invention and its application.

[0029] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being “fixed” or “disposed on” another element, it may be directly on the other element or be indirectly on the other element. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or indirectly connected to the other element. In addition, the connection can be used for fixation as well as for coupling or communication.

[0030] It is to be understood that the terms "length", "width", "top", "bottom", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top" , "bottom", "inner", "outer" and other indicated orientations or positional relationships are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in ...

Abstract

A miniature jumping robot with a controllable jumping direction, including a body structure, a plurality of leg structures, a plurality of locking structures and a driver, the body structure is connected to the leg structures, the locking structure is connected to the leg structures and allows the locking structures to connect with the leg structures The locking structure includes an electrode layer or a magnetic material layer, which can be locked to the ground substrate through electrostatic adsorption or magnetic force. The driver is connected to the body structure through the connecting structure. The driver is a material with shape memory function. When the driver is powered on The elastic potential energy is generated by the change of the stiffness coefficient. When the locking structure is released, the elastic potential energy is instantly released to the leg structure and converted into the jumping kinetic energy of the robot. By controlling the release timing of multiple locking structures, the jumping direction of the robot is controlled. The robot can control the direction of its own jumping, has a strong ability to climb over obstacles, and is very flexible in jumping control.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of micro-robots, in particular to a micro-jumping robot with a controllable jumping direction. Background technique [0002] The progress of material science and the development of micro-nano processing technology provide the possibility for the design and manufacture of micro-robots. Due to its miniaturization and light weight, micro-robots can break through the limitations of traditional large-scale robots and can be used in many fields such as disaster relief, reconnaissance, and detection. In the ruins after the earthquake, micro-robots are equipped with various sensors, shuttle through narrow gaps, search for trapped people while exploring terrain structures, and assist search and rescue personnel to complete rescue work; micro-robots can also become maintainers of gas pipeline systems , enter the pipeline to check the operation status, and avoid potential safety hazards caused by gas leakage; a large number of ...
