Abstract

Eyleyiciler herhangi bir robotik sistemin genel performansını belirleyen en önemli bileşenlerdir. Uzun yıllar boyunca, uygun eyleyicilerin eksikliği, hareket, güvenlik ve enerji verimliliği açısından canlı organizmalarla rekabet edebilecek yüksek performanslı makinelerin veya robotların gelişmesini engellemiştir. Biyolojik sistemlerin çevresel değişkenlere adaptasyon özellikleri; Örneğin, değişken sertlik özelliklerine sahip biyolojik kasın kontrol performansı, mekanik cihazların performansını aşmaktadır. Elastik eyleyicilerin değişken rijitlik özellikleri, endüstriyel robotlarda kullanılan konum hassasiyeti gerektiren geleneksel rijit eyleyicilerin çalışma prensibinden oldukça farklıdır. Son yıllarda elastik eyleyicilerin tasarımı üzerine çok sayıda çalışma yapılmış olmasına rağmen, yaygın olarak kullanılan basit rijit servo eyleyiciler yerini alabilecek düşük maliyetli ve kompakt bir elastik eyleyici henüz mevcut değildir. Bu çalışmada, düşük maliyetli olması nedeniyle robotik uygulamalarında ve hobi araçlarında çok yaygın olarak kullanılan standart bir servo motor, dişli sistemine eklenen elastik bir kavrama vasıtasıyla sertliği değiştirilebilir bir eyleyiciye dönüştürülmektedir. Elastik kavrama, silindirik diskin üzerine yerleştirilmiş prizmatik kesitli dört küçük yayrak yaydan oluşmakta ve eyleyicinin sertliği, prizmatik yayların (millerin) kavrama uzunluğunu değiştirerek ayarlanmaktadır. Çalışmada, bu yenilikçi tasarım tanıtılmış, ardından prizmatik milin burulma rijitliğinin kavrama uzunluğu ile değişimini ifade eden denklemler ve bu denklemlerin çözümleri verilmiştir.

Elastic Actuator Design Based on Torsion of Prismatic Shafts for Robotic Applications

Abstract

Actuators are the most critical components that determine the overall performance of any robotic system. For many years, the lack of suitable actuators has hampered the development of high-performance machines or robots that can compete with living organisms in terms of motion, safety, and energy efficiency. Adaptation properties of biological systems to environmental variables; for example, the control performance of biological muscle with variable stiffness properties exceeds the performance of mechanical devices. The variable stiffness characteristics of elastic actuators are quite different from the operating principle of conventional solid actuators that require accurate reference trajectory tracking used in industrial robots. Although there has been a lot of work on the design of elastic actuators in recent years, a low-cost and compact elastic actuator that can be used in place of standard rigid servo actuators is not yet available. In this study, a standard servo motor, which is widely used in robotic applications and hobby vehicles due to its low cost, has been transformed into an elastic actuator by an elastic coupling attached to the gear system. The elastic coupling consists of four small shafts with a prismatic cross section placed on the circular disk, and the stiffness of the actuator is adjusted by varying the clutch length of the prismatic shafts. In the study, this innovative design is explained, then the equations expressing the variation of the torsional stiffness of the prismatic shaft with the coupling length and solutions of these equations are given.
