Abstract

Purpose: when modern problems of robotics are being solved, the bionic approach where robots imitate complexity and adaptability of biological systems gains more ground nowadays. Particularly, it is urgent for the medical micro robots equipped by controlled tiny and energy-efficient propellers. The purpose of this article is to develop new structure of flagella propellers imitating the work of biological flagella propeller. Results: a new type of the tiny flagella propeller imitating operation of the biological flagella propeller and allowing adapting to the environment due to control over rigidity and forms of elements of the propeller is suggested here, as well as its intellectual system of automatic control. With the use of computer modeling, it is shown that the suggested type of the propeller allows reaching the dynamic characteristics required for medical micro robots. Practical importance: the suggested adaptive flagella propeller with controlled rigidity is supplied with the corresponding systems of automatic control can be used in micro robots of different function. Development of dynamics and setup of parameters of flagella propellers with the controlled form and rigidity by means of computer modeling can be improved by inclusion of the model of SEMS module into the constructed model designed by authors earlier.
