壁虎身体沿脊椎轴的两个方向都具有很好的柔性,为实现多种地壁过渡提供了可能,然而壁虎更乐意采用侧向过渡方式。由于所研制的仿壁虎机器人结构的体长方向刚度远高于体宽方向刚度,因此其侧向地壁过渡是一种较好的方式。采用软件联合仿真,提出并规划了一种侧向地壁过渡步态方式,并得到其过渡时的步态运动序列和各关节旋转角度。
Because of the good flexibility along the spinal axis in two directions, gecko has the possibility to transmit ground to wall in several ways. However gecko prefers to use lateral transition mode. According to the structure of a gecko-mimicking robot whose stiffness along the length direction was much higher than that along the width direction, lateral mode was a good idea for the robot to transit from ground to wall. Several software tools were adopted to simulate together in order to introduce and plan one lateral transition gait, and get the gait sequences and the joint rotation angles.
