Pleated Pneumatic Artificial Muscles for Robotic Applications
This work describes the implementation of Pleated Pneumatic Artificial Muscles (PPAM) into innovative robotic applications. These actuators have a very high power to weight ratio and an inherent adaptable compliance. Two applications for which these characteristics give interesting surplus values are described. Nowadays legged robots are gaining more and more interest. But most of the robots us...
متن کاملHydraulic Autonomous Soft Robotic Fish for 3D Swimming
This work presents an autonomous soft-bodied robotic fish that is hydraulically actuated and capable of sustained swimming in three dimensions. The design of a fish-like soft body has been extended to deform under hydraulic instead of pneumatic power. Moreover, a new closed-circuit drive system that uses water as a transmission fluid is used to actuate the soft body. Circulation of water throug...
متن کاملPleated pneumatic artificial muscles: compliant robotic actuators
Pleated pneumatic artificial muscles (PPAMs), which have recently been developed at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Department of Mechanical Engineering are brought forward as robotic actuators in this paper. Their distinguishing feature is their pleated design, as a result of which their contraction forces and maximum displacement are very high compared to other pneumatic artificial muscles. T...
متن کاملSoft Material Characterization for Robotic Applications
In this article we present mechanical measurements of three representative elastomers used in soft robotic systems: Sylgard 184, Smooth-Sil 950, and EcoFlex 00-30. Our aim is to demonstrate the effects of the nonlinear, time-dependent properties of these materials to facilitate improved dynamic modeling of soft robotic components. We employ uniaxial pull-to-failure tests, cyclic loading tests, ...
متن کاملSoft Passive Valves for Serial Actuation in a Soft Hydraulic Robotic Catheter1
Joseph L. McKibben devised soft robotic actuators in the 1950s when he developed arm orthotics for his daughter who suffered from poliomyelitis [1]. The resulting McKibben actuator consists of an elastomeric tube encased by a mesh of equal and opposite fiber orientations allowing for axial expansion or contraction. Recent research of fiber-reinforced enclosed elastomers (FREEs) has focused on v...
