  • Patent number: 11752819
    Abstract: A wheel-legged amphibious mobile robot with a variable attack angle, which belongs to the technical field of robot structure technology. The robot includes three parts: motion unit, body trunk and power unit. As a key structure, the motion unit mainly includes a moving mechanism, a wheel assembly, a telescopic mechanism and a transmission device. The robot drives the telescopic mechanism to reciprocate linearly through a gear and rack set, and pushes “legs” to expand and retract, so as to realize a mutual switching between a wheeled mode and a gait mode. Under transmission of bevel gear set, the blades can rotate at any same angle at the same time, to change the attack angle and realize the steering. The robot provided by the present disclosure can effectively adapt to a complex and harsh amphibious environment, and meet a series of operation requirements such as rapid movement, obstacle climbing, underwater steering.

  • Patent number: 11493107
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) magnetic damping shock absorber based on an eddy current effect, comprising a lower plate, a ring-shaped magnet a, a ring-shaped magnet b, an aluminum cylinder, a bottom copper sheet, a copper sheet, a top copper sheet, a bearing seat, a linear bearing, a bearing end cap, a load, a piston shaft, a stepped shaft, a fixed collar, a coil spring, a lower clamping shaft, and fixing screws. When the shock absorber is working, the ring-shaped magnet a keeps stationary at the lower end and the ring-shaped magnet b reciprocates in the vertical direction. Both magnets are arranged in a mutual attraction manner. Under the action of a time-varying electromagnetic field generated by the relative movement of the ring-shaped magnet b, the copper sheet arranged between the two ring-shaped magnets generates eddy current damping. The movement of the ring-shaped magnet b is inhibited.

  • Publication number: 20220003532
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a quasi-zero-stiffness (QZS) based six-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) absolute displacement and attitude measurement device. A lower end coil and an upper end coil are respectively charged with currents in the opposite directions; The electromagnetic field and the magnetic fields of an upper magnet and a lower magnet per se are mutually acted to produce an electromagnetic stiffness opposite to the stiffness of a spring. The stiffness of the whole leg is close to zero stiffness. When the to-be-measured platform generates space motion, the reference platform is in the stationary state. At this point, the deformation amounts of the six legs can be measured by laser displacement sensors. The six deformation amounts are respectively inputted into the displacement and attitude resolver, and by forward kinematic solution of the 6-DOF device, the displacement and the attitude of the to-be-measured platform can be obtained.
