【 摘 要 】

In order to solve the problem of loss of locomotion ability due to overturning and instability during the movement of a mobile robot, a multi-mode omnidirectional ground mobile robot with a deformable structure is proposed. Single-loop is used as the unit, and the three-direction geometric deformation can be realized by controlling its R joints in time sharing. The 4-RRRRRR parallel mobile robot formed by two closed-loops orthogonally has four different rolling modes, and each mode can be switched between each other. Once the robot is overturned and unstable during the movement, it can be deformed into other modes and continue to move. After the description of the robot, the DOF (degree-of-freedom) is calculated based on the screw theory. Gait planning and locomotion feasibility analysis indicate that the robot can realize four locomotion modes and their mutual switching. Finally, the simulations and prototype experiments are presented to verify the feasibility of the different locomotion modes and the ability of the obstacle crossing.
