Abstract

This paper presents a wheel-legged robot that can move by wheel and jump by leg. Since the center of gravity is designed below the wheel axis, this robot can keep balance rely on its own mechanical structure. The key part for hopping of this robot is the gear system and torsional spring. The detailed process and principle of the hopping motion is introduced in this paper. The implementation of the hopping and how the parameter of the chosen torsional spring influenced the height that the robot can reach is simulated in Adams software.
