Abstract

In order to achieve the best obstacle surmounting performance of a mobile robot in the rescue environment, a four-track twin-rocker bionic rescue robot with an inner and outer concentric shaft was designed in this paper. From the viewpoint of dynamics, the motion process of the mass center of the robot when climbing steps forward and backward was studied. The maximum obstacle height of the robot was calculated. The relationship between the elevation angle of the car body, the swing angle of the rocker arm and the height of the steps was analyzed by simulation. The simulation results show that the maximum forward and reverse obstacle crossing heights were 92.99 mm and 155.82 mm, respectively. Obstacle climbing experiments of the designed robot prototype were carried out. It was found that the measured maximum height of the step was 95 mm, and the measured maximum height of the reverse obstacle was 165 mm. Finally, bionic particle swarm optimization was used to optimize the structural parameters of the rocker arm with an optimal length of 315.2 mm. The study of this paper can be referenced for the design and analysis of obstacle surmounting rescue robots with similar structures.
