随着机器人技术不断成熟,使得机器人逐渐走出了实验室,面向广大的消费群体。这就要求机器人设备的价格不能太高。对应于灵巧手的研发也是同样的思路。同时,机器人设备不能过于庞大,应该要能适应于人类的日常生活场景,包括人类使用的各种生活生产工具。设备的体积重量主要集中于驱动部分。而欠驱动灵巧手正好具有驱动器数量低于机构自由度的特点,便可以做到轻便小巧,同时也降低了控制的难度。
一般的灵巧手设计都不单独考虑传感器的安装问题,往往只是设计出简单的驱动结构,事后在补上相应的传感器。不添加传感器的灵巧手虽然也能实现抓取功能,但是具有很大的局限性,对于物体的操作,感知都无法提出太高的要求。

本发明实施例提供的机械手通过在连接组件40上连接多个手指组件5,且各手指组件5的一端连接在连接组件40上,另一端远离连接组件40而形成自由端,以使各手指组件5具有伸展自由。该机械手中的各手指组件5具有多个依次连接的指节部件50,且在各指节部件50的基体模块52上安装触觉传感器54和角度传感器56,有利于提高机械手的感知能力。机械手通过模块化的指节部件组成,且单个指节部件集成度高,同时实现结构简化,从而有利于产品的生产制作、零件库存管理。
需要说明的是,各指节部件50的角度变化信息是指当个手指组件5发生弯曲或者伸展时,相邻两指节部件50会发生相对转动而出现角度变化。
为了更清晰地说明手指组件5和指节部件50的关系,以人体仿真原理为例进行说明。各手指组件5类似于人体的各手指,各手指组件5上依次连接的各指节部件50类似于人体的指节,触觉传感器54和角度传感器56类似于指节上的感知神经。

请参照图1、图2以及图8和图9,进一步地,机械手还包括指尖模块58,各手指组件5至少于其自由端安装有一指尖模块58。可以理解地,各手指组件5上设有一个指尖模块58,且该指尖模块58位于手指组件5的自由端;或者,各手指组件5的两端分别设有一个指尖模块58,即一个指尖模块58位于手指组件5的自由端,另一个指尖模块58位于手指组件5之连接至连接组件40的一端,也就是说每个手指组件5的两端分别设有一个指尖模块58。当手指组件5沿连接组件40的两侧延伸形成两根手指的情况下,即形成两个自由端,两个指尖模块58分别设于两个自由端。
请参照图2至图8,进一步地,指尖模块58包括第一插接块580a及第一指尖盖582a,第一插接块580a间隔设置并形成有两个第一插接槽581a,第一插接块580a嵌合于基体模块52中。具体的,第一插接块580a形成的第一接插槽581a对应于第一连接部522嵌合设计,实现插槽式连接。第一指尖盖582a位于第一插接块580a之远离基体模块52的一侧。该指尖模块58与位于手指组件5自由端为第一连接部522的基体模块52连接。可以理解地,第一连接部522为间隔设置并插设于插接槽581的连接块,连接块与插接块580相对设置,实现嵌合固定的结构,便于拆卸、安装。
