Polypod walking robot capable of being disassembled and reconstructed

Abstract

The walking robot capable of being disassembled and reconstructed includes two rows of parallel food unit structures beside the frame unit, and features that it consists of food unit structures, frame unit structure and active joint unit structures, which may be separated from and combined to other unit structures easily. By means of changing the positions and number of the connecting frames, it is possible to alter the number and configuration of feet in the walking robot and to alter the structure and function of the walking robot. The present invention provides great expansion space for the structure and moving function of walking robot, can replace fault unit and composite new motion structure conveniently, and makes walking robot well fitting different motion environments. The present invention can also simplify structure and control of robot, and lower developing and using cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of robots, and in particular relates to a decomposable and reconfigurable multi-legged walking robot. Background technique [0002] Traditional mobile robots mainly include wheeled, crawler, footed, hybrid and other motion forms. Among them, wheeled and tracked robots have simple structures, but their movements are limited by environmental factors and their movement capabilities are weak. The multi-legged walking robot can walk stably on uneven roads, and can replace wheeled and tracked robots to complete some unstructured transportation operations in complex environments. The end tools can make robots work instead of humans in dangerous or dangerous environments, and complete tasks that are difficult for wheeled robots. Therefore, this type of robot has a very broad application prospect. In view of this, since the 1960s, many developed countries in the world have invested considerable manpower and financ...

Problems solved by technology

These motion structures and control methods are not only very complex, but usually once the structure is determined, it is easy to make changes. When the working environment or task of the robot changes, the adaptability of the robot is significantly reduced or even unable to work.

In addition, the increasingly complex structure will also lead to a significant increase in the failure rate during operation, and the development and use costs of the robot will also greatly increase.

Therefore, the method of increasing the function and complexity of the motion structure cannot fundamentally meet the constantly changing environment and task needs of walking robots, nor can it solve the contradiction between enriching robot functions and reducing development and use costs.
