Abstract

The effects of body geometry on walking machine performance have been investigated, and a body design procedure proposed. The relationships between static workspace, body-geometry and installed joint torques have been derived. A body design procedure that uses this data is then described, and two design examples discussed. The procedure results in a body geometry which minimises the installed joint torques, and hence the machine weight, for the desired workspace area.
