Embodiment Construction

[0018] Below in conjunction with embodiment 1 of the invention, the operating principle and working process of parallel robot are illustrated:

[0019] The three spaced artificial muscles 9 enter the pressure fluid at the same time, and the other three spaced artificial muscles 9 are squeezed to discharge the fluid, so that the working platform 7 rotates counterclockwise around the vertical spherical universal joint 8 axis; any adjacent two The artificial muscles 9 enter the pressure fluid at the same time, and the rest of the artificial muscles 9 are squeezed to discharge the fluid, which makes the working platform 7 rotate around the horizontal axis determined by the spherical universal joint 8 .

Abstract

The invention relates to a parallel robot which uses liquid to drive the artificial muscle, belonging to the application technique of robot, machine, and machine tool. Said inventive parallel robot is driven by artificial muscle whose elastic-wave case can be aerated as the power of muscle and the aerated elastic-wave case can be bended and distorted, therefore, said artificial muscle has flexibility. The structure I is similar to the 6-SPS parallel robot; the moving connector is driven by artificial muscle; a ball universal connector is connected on the center of circumcircle between base platform and workbench to form the parallel robot with three rotary freedom degrees; the structure II is similar to 3-PTT parallel robot, while the axial center line of symmetry distributed artificial muscle and the axial center line of ball universal connector in the center are arranged in one plane; the moving connection is driven by artificial muscle; the ball universal connector is vertically connected on the center of circle of round base platform and round workbench to form the parallel with two rotary freedom degrees.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to a parallel robot with fluid-driven artificial muscles. The parallel robot can be used as various joints such as wrists and ankles of humanoid robots, base parts and special flexible couplings of flexible working heads of machine tools, as The actuator and flexible mechanical structure of automation equipment belong to the application technical field of robots, machines and machine tools. Background technique: [0002] Before the present invention, in prior art, for parallel robot, existing parallel robot all adopts rigid structure or flexible bar / arm, does not adopt the artificial muscle that has flexibility (can be bent and twisted) to drive. Parallel robots. The base part and the special flexible coupling of the flexible working head (such as the polishing head) have not adopted the structure of compliant artificial muscles (as an air spring with adjustable inner cavity pressure, thereby adjusting the rigidity of the system...
