Abstract
In a pneumatic power assist robot, it has been technical issue that peripheral pneumatic elements such as air source and air valve increase whole weight of air system. Pneumatic mechanical elements had been developed in this study. The developed air source, which can retrieve compressed air from an actuator by using the variable volume tank, is effective to decrease energy consumption. The developed valve regulates air flow rate by constricting air tube put in valve. The developed mechanism can realize weight reduction of the air system.
