Abstract

The invention provides an amphibious micro-robot with deformable wheels, wherein the amphibious micro-robot comprises a rack, the deformable wheels, a transmission system, a driving system and a control system, and the rack is used for bearing; the deformable wheels are mounted on the rack, and the state of the deformable wheels can be switched so as to be matched with movement in the amphibious environment; the driving system can drive the deformable wheels to act through the transmission system, and the actions comprise state switching of the deformable wheels and / or driving of the deformable wheels to rotate; and the control system controls the connection to the driving system. The single variable-configuration mechanism is used for carrying out deformation switching among the wheels, spokes and wheel paddles, meanwhile, the driving modes needed by different land and water environments are met, the weight of the whole machine is reduced, all the driving modes are achieved through deformation of the single mechanism, the structure is simple and compact, and light weight and miniaturization of the robot are realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of amphibious robots, in particular to an amphibious microrobot with deformable wheels. Background technique [0002] Amphibious robots have the ability to move in different environments on land and water, and can undertake various tasks in land and water environments. Research on amphibious robots that can adapt to various terrain environments is of great significance to economic development, environmental monitoring, resource exploration, and military tasks. Existing amphibious robots are mainly divided into the following categories: wheeled amphibious robots, legged amphibious robots, snake-shaped amphibious robots, etc. [0003] Wheeled amphibious robots have high walking efficiency and high energy utilization, but they lack the ability to overcome obstacles in the terrestrial environment. Secondly, the application and research of paddle wheels with paddles in wheeled amphibious robots are relatively l...
