Abstract:
Aiming at the problem that the body of the existing wheeled robot is relatively fixed and cannot adapt to the complex environment, a new type of deployable mobile robot mechanism is proposed by introducing a rigid origami mechanism, which is with less degrees of freedom and large folding ratio, into efficient wheeled motion, and improves the passing performance in complex environments. The working principle analysis of this mechanism is carried out, and the relationship between the three-dimensional sizes of the robot and driving angles is obtained. By establishing a simplified model of the robot, its dynamics is carried out. Then, the change of the driving torque of different positions with the driving angle is obtained, which is used to optimize the driving arrangement scheme. Through a proposed algorithm, the compatible movement between the main body folding and the wheel motion is realized, so that the robot can move efficiently in the complex environment. Finally, a physical prototype and the control system are built, based on which the movement and folding performance are verified through two experiments. The results show that the robot could fit complex paths flexibly by switching its postures, and has the advantages of large deployment and folding ratio. Therefore, the robot owns the potential applications in some engineering fields such as detection, detection and rescue. © 2022 Editorial Office of Chinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering.
