Embodiment Construction

[0023] The problem of shape design and surface treatment technology for increasing the surface tension of the water surface of the filamentous leg is solved. The design and integration of electric, cable-free robotic systems with light weight and small size are realized. In the end, he invented a bionic water strider, a water floating robot that can be used for related robotics and theoretical research and experiments.

[0024] The technical scheme of the present invention is as follows: 1. The paulownia wood chip is made into a rectangular body; 2. 8 supporting legs and 2 driving legs are bent with stainless steel wires, and the legs are surface sprayed and dried with a hydrophobic agent. 3. The front and rear of the body 4 support legs are fixed each; 4. The 2.54 gauge pin header is used as a power switch, and a silver oxide battery is used to drive a DC motor; 5. The plastic tube or copper wire ring fixed on the body is the gear sleeve, and the carbon fiber rod is the gear ...

Abstract

The present invention belongs to the field of water floating robot technology, and features that the water floating robot has 6-8 supporting legs and the legs in filament structure are surface treated with water repellent and battery and three level gear mechanism driven to row on the water surface to move. The water floating robot has the advantages of light weight, small size and great loading capacity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to water robots, in particular to the technical field of bionic water striders. Background technique [0002] The principle that organisms and mechanical devices use surface tension to float on the water surface is known, as the article (Gao Xuefeng, JiangLei, Biophysics Water repellent legs of water striders, Nature, Vol.432, 4Nov.2004, 36) pointed out that water strider legs The microstructure of the setae on the back can generate huge buoyancy and realize standing on the water surface. Scientific toy flying on water (country: China, public number: CN85204519, public date: 1987.11.07) has realized the technology of relying on the surface tension of water to float simple toys on the water surface. However, the part it contacts with the water surface is not leg-shaped, so it cannot imitate water surface creatures. There is also no electric drive system, and the structure is simple and the performance is simple. It cannot be use...
