Patent number: 7328087Abstract: A bipedal robot of the present invention has a trunk consisting of an upper trunk and a lower trunk which are rotatable around a rotation axis relative to one another. The upper trunk has shoulders on the right and left sides. An arm is provided at each shoulder. A pair of right and left legs is attached to lower ends of the lower trunk. A storage battery is mounted to the back of the upper trunk, positioned within a shoulder width. The storage battery is positioned below the top of a head mounted on the upper trunk. When the robot walks a narrow passage or corridor having a width slightly larger than the width thereof, for example, this arrangement prevents the storage battery from interfering with the passage or the like.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2006Date of Patent: February 5, 2008Assignee: Honda Giken Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Yasuhisa Saito, Teruyuki Oka, Toratsugu Kuwahara, Atsushi Demachi, Toshiyuki Higashi, Kenichi Ogawa, Takuro Koyanagi, Susumu Miyazaki

Patent number: 6781343Abstract: In a hybrid power supply device constituted such that a secondary battery (4) is charged by a fuel battery (3) and electric power is supplied from the secondary battery (4) to a load (1), even when there are variations among residual capacities of individual unit secondary batteries (4a) constituting the secondary battery (4), the secondary battery (4) can be charged properly without causing overcharging in each of unit secondary batteries (4a). The fuel battery (3) is divided into a plurality of unit fuel batteries (3a), each consisting of a predetermined number of cells, and each unit hybrid power supply (2a) is constituted by connecting each unit fuel battery (3a) with each unit secondary battery (4a) through each charging switch (13) in parallel. The charging switch (13) is controlled independently for each unit hybrid power supply (2a) on the basis of the residual capacity of each unit secondary battery (4a) to perform charging of the unit secondary battery (4a) by the unit fuel battery (3a).Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2003Date of Patent: August 24, 2004Assignee: Honda Giken Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Atsushi Demachi, Yasuhisa Saito, Toratsugu Kuwahara, Teruyuki Oka, Satoshi Tabuchi, Toshiyuki Kubo, Ken Onuma, Hiroki Tahira
