Title:
BIPEDAL WALKING ROBOT
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3918049
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To dissolve a problem that in a conventional bipedal walking robot with leg parallel two wheels, to smoothly walk a stair is a main purpose, and high speed running on a flat surface and smooth operation are impracticable.
SOLUTION: A first side leg 5 extending from a body 1 to the side is rotatable centering around an axis 6 by a motor 7. A first main leg 11 extending downward from the first side leg 5 is rotatable around an axis 12 by a motor 13, and the first main leg 11 is made telescopic by a ball screw mechanism rotated by a motor 15. A first auxiliary leg 25 rotated centering around an axis 26 by a motor 27 is situated at the lower part of the vertically moving first moving leg 17. A first rotary joint 28 with a brake freely rotatable is situated at the lower part of the first auxiliary leg 25. A 6-axis force sensor 30 is situated therebelow between a first wheel frame 29 situated therebelow and the first rotary joint. A first side wheel 32 driven by a motor 31 and a second foot wheel 34 driven by a motor 33 are situated at the first wheel frame 29 to constitute a first leg 51 and effects running and walking as a whole through corporation with a second leg 52 of the same constitution.
