Crank Arrangement on the Dynamics of a Quadruped Walking Machine

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of crank arrangement on the dynamics of a quadruped walking machine. The dynamic characteristics of the walking machine, including the stance leg sequence, pitch angle and dynamic response of the quadruped walking machine are investigated and compared with the existing design. The results show that the phrase angle between front and rear legs on the same side should be 0^o or 90^o and the one between the legs on the different sides should be 180^o. The results of this study can serve as a reference for future design and optimization of quadruped walking machines.
