Abstract

Performance tests and drive experiments play an important role in researches on water hydraulic artificial muscles. A test system is designed to analyze the drive characteristic of the developed water hydraulic artificial muscle. Through simulation getting main parameters, the hydraulic circuit to regulate the pressure of the water hydraulic artificial muscle and a proportional control loading system are built. The pressure control and drawing force regulation in the loading system for muscles with different diameter and length are provided by the designed test system. The experimental results show that the muscle pressure can be adjusted stably and the contraction of the tested muscle can be measured under different preset drawing forces. The test system for the water hydraulic artificial muscle is useful in the researches on drive characteristic and control system of the water hydraulic artificial muscle.
