摘要
液压四足机器人具有离散的落足点和较大的负重能力等特点,在无人监测、灾难救援和物资运输等场景中具有广阔的应用前景和重要的研究价值.作为四足机器人最关键的运动单元,肢腿单元的重量直接影响其动态性能.因此,根据肢腿单元的运动特点开展轻量化设计显得尤为重要.针对Spurlos Ⅱ肢腿单元的大腿结构存在较多冗余重量的问题,利用变密度惩罚法对其进行拓扑优化,通过基于B样条拟合二维切片轮廓的方法对优化后的网格型模型进行重构.针对模型重构带来的局部应力集中问题,引入晶格填充结构,实现局部优化.优化后,大腿部件的重量为1 007.19g,降低了 36.01％;大幅度减重的同时,大腿部件的最大等效应力降低了 1.41％.最后,优化后的肢腿单元在不同频率下的轨迹跟踪试验中表现出的更好的动态特性,证明所提出方法的有效性.
Abstract
Hydraulic actuated quadruped robots have bright application prospects and significant research values in unmanned area investigation,disaster rescue,material transport and other scenarios,due to their discrete landing positions and large payloads.As the most critical movement unit of a quadruped robot,the mass distribution of limb leg unit directly affects the dynamic performance of the robot,calling for a compact and lightweight design.This study focuses on the problem of excessive redundant weight in the thigh structure of the limb leg unit of Spurlos Ⅱ robot.The solid isotropic material with penalization algorithm is adopted to the thigh structure topology optimization,and the optimized mesh model is reconstructed using a method based on B-spline fitting approach for two-dimensional cross-sectional profiles.Then,to solve the problem of local stress concentration caused by model reconstruction,lattice filling structures are introduced to achieve further optimization.After optimization,the weight of the thigh structure component reduces by 36.01％to 1007.19 g,and its maximum equivalent stress decreases by 1.41％.Finally,the optimized leg limb unit demonstrated better dynamic performance in trajectory tracking experiments with different frequencies,proving the effectiveness of the proposed lightweight design method.
