Study on Bidirectional Controllable Flexible Bending Joints Based on Elongation Artificial Muscles

Abstract:

Flexible joint plays an important role in compliant motion of robot and bionic function and so on. We developed a new type bidirectional controllable flexible bending joint based on elongation artificial muscles, and which can axial elongate and bend two-dimensional two-way control in space. Furthermore, we had theoretical and experimental analysis on both axial elongation and bending deformation of joint, and get the pressure-elongation relationship and bending moment-angle properties. And this study could be valuable for the dynamic analysis and motion accuracy control of the robots driven by this type flexible joint.
