摘要: 提出一种新型可变形轮腿式地面移动机器人,采用相同动力源实现轮式和腿式两种移动模式。将Chebyshev机构与平行四边形机构结合,提出了具有两种单自由度运动形式的单环闭链2RP3R变胞机构,进行了构型设计和运动学分析。将2个单环闭链变胞机构构造成轮腿式移动模块,进而构建一种可变形轮腿式机器人。机器人具有256种运动形式,这些运动形式均采用相同的动力源,实现多足切换,通过不同高度的空间,在曲柄与机架共线时进行移动模式切换,实现倾倒后恢复。然后,分析了机器人的移动性能,得到腿式模式下的平均越障能力和两种模式下的平均速度比。建立虚拟样机模型,完成了机器人平地行走、越障、转向和模式切换仿真试验。研制一台样机,进行了两种模式下的移动试验,验证了机器人方案的可行性。

Abstract: A novel deformable wheel-legged ground mobile robot is proposed, which moves in wheeled and legged modes by the same power. Firstly, a single-loop closed-chain 2RP3R metamorphic mechanism is proposed by combining Chebyshev mechanism with parallelogram mechanism, which realizes two single-freedom motion forms. The configuration design and kinematics analysis are carried out. Secondly, a novel deformable wheel-legged robot is constructed by wheel-legged mobile modules which are composed of two single-loop closed-chain metamorphic mechanisms. The robot has 256 motion forms which are achieved through the same power. It can switch between multi-legged states and cross through the space at different heights. The mode-switching is carried out when the crank is collinear with the rack so that the recovery from overturning is achieved. Thirdly, the mobility of the robot is analyzed, and the average obstacle-crossing ability in the legged mode and the average speed ratio in the two modes are obtained. Lastly, the virtual prototyping model is established and the simulations of level-moving, obstacle-crossing, steering and mode-switching are completed. A prototype is fabricated, and the feasibility of the idea is verified by carrying out moving experiments in the two modes.

Key words: deformable, wheel-legged robot, single-loop closed-chain mechanism, metamorphic mechanism
