Design and Analysis of Transformable Wheel-legged Mobile Robot

摘要

Wheeled mobile robot has good ground motion ability, fast moving speed and low energy consumption, but poor obstacle surmounting performance. In order to make the mobile robot have the motion performance in complex environments, the wheel mechanism and the wheel-leg mechanism are coupled and designed, and a deformable wheel-leg structure is designed. The mobile robot can not only move in the wheel mode, but also switch to the wheel-leg mode to adapt to the complex motion environment. The deformable wheel-leg mechanism is composed of a four-bar linkage, and the static analysis of key components is carried out in ANSYS.
