Abstract
In order to realize the automation and integration of wearing and taking off shoes and socks, a service robot for wearing and taking off footwear was designed to help persons living with waist or leg problems in this paper. Through the analysis of the process of wearing and taking off shoes and socks, the robot could carry out this work automatic. The robot mainly consists of intelligent identification system, device for wearing and removing shoes or socks, mobile mechanical arm and power drive with control system. In addition, an auxiliary foot lifting device is designed to cooperate with the service robot for wearing and taking off footwear. The virtual motion simulation of the machine is carried out, and the feasibility of the machine function and the rationality of the structure design are analyzed here.
Highlights
Wearing and taking off shoes and socks is a common thing for people, but it is a painful thing for the elderly, patients, the disabled and other people with waist or leg illness
There are a few designs on automatic service robots for dressing and wearing shoes or socks at present [5-9]
The household service robot for wearing and taking off footwear is designed here for the automation of wearing and taking off shoes and socks for people. It has a good value for the popularization and market development of residents' elderly care services
Summary
Wearing and taking off shoes and socks is a common thing for people, but it is a painful thing for the elderly, patients, the disabled and other people with waist or leg illness. The special home service robot is one type of the assistive robots to help them in normal living [1-4]. There are a few designs on automatic service robots for dressing and wearing shoes or socks at present [5-9]. They are mostly helpful for dressing and wearing shoes or socks. An automatic service robot, which realizes the integration of putting on and taking off shoes and socks, is designed in this paper. Mechanical arm, intelligent recognition system, device for wearing and removing shoes, device for wearing and removing socks, top cover device, walking system and power and control system. From the perspective of actions, it is divided into the prime mover part, the transmission part, the execution part, the control and the auxiliary system
