Fig. 1 is a kind of kneed overall structure schematic diagram of apery with adjustable flexibility of the present invention, Fig. 2 is the apery knee joint instantaneous center of rotation track schematic diagram that the present invention has adjustable flexibility, Fig. 3 is the partial enlarged drawing of Fig. 2, and Fig. 4 is the syndeton schematic diagram of detailed description of the invention six.
Detailed description of the invention
Detailed description of the invention one: composition graphs 1 illustrates, a kind of apery knee joint with adjustable flexibility of present embodiment, it comprises driving mechanism and transmission mechanism; Driving mechanism comprises drive 1, metallic cable 2, first rotating shaft 3 and two Pneumatic artificial muscles 4; Transmission mechanism comprises a central gear 5, planetary gear 6, tie-rod 7 and the second rotating shaft 8;
Two Pneumatic artificial muscles 4 adopt antagonism formula arrangement to arrange, and the upper end of two Pneumatic artificial muscles 4 is connected with thigh 9;
A central gear 5 is packed on thigh 9, and the first rotating shaft 3 is rotatably installed on a central gear 5 by bearing 10;
A planetary gear 6 is packed on shank 11, and the second rotating shaft 8 is rotatably installed on a planetary gear 6 by bearing 10, and central gear 5 engages with planetary gear 6, and the first rotating shaft 3 is connected with the second rotating shaft 8 by a tie-rod 7;
Drive 1 is packed in the first rotating shaft 3, and metallic cable 2 is wrapped on drive 1, and one end of metallic cable 2 is connected with the lower end of one of them Pneumatic artificial muscle 4, and the other end of metallic cable 2 is connected with the lower end of another Pneumatic artificial muscle 4.
Detailed description of the invention two: composition graphs 1 illustrates, the metallic cable 2 of present embodiment is steel wire rope.Setting like this, structural strength is large, stable and reliable operation.Other is identical with detailed description of the invention one.
Detailed description of the invention three: composition graphs 1 illustrates, a kind of flexible apery knee joint described in present embodiment also comprises another central gear 5 and another planetary gear 6; Two central gears 5 are just to setting, another central gear 5 is packed on thigh 9, two planetary gears 6 are just to setting, another planetary gear 6 is packed on shank 11, first rotating shaft 3 is rotatably installed on another central gear 5 by bearing 10, second rotating shaft 8 is rotatably installed on another planetary gear 6 by bearing 10, and another central gear 5 engages with another planetary gear 6.Setting like this, reduces central gear and planetary gear matched in clearance, keeps balance, ensures knee joint stable and reliable operation.Other is identical with detailed description of the invention one or two.
