Multi-Legged Walking Robot

Pneumatically Assisted Multi-Legged Walking Robot Technology

This technology relates to a multi-legged walking robot that improves travel efficiency and support stability by combining multiple leg units with a pneumatic assistance structure.

Conventional multi-legged robots have struggled to achieve fast locomotion and stable support because of high torque loads and physical resistance during the stance phase. This technology addresses that issue by linking a main body, leg-joint structure, surface support means, and pneumatic device to assist drive operation during the stance phase.

As a result, it can improve travel efficiency and support stability and can be used in industrial mobile robots, exploration robots, and walking assistance devices.

Key Features:

• It includes an articulated structure connecting the main body and multiple leg units.
• It applies a pneumatic device that assists surface support force during the stance phase.
• It improves travel efficiency and stability by reducing the torque burden on the drive unit.
