Título: | A New and Versatile Adjustable Rigidity Actuator with Add-on Locking Mechanism (ARES-XL) |
Autor: | Cestari, Manuel CSIC ORCID; Sanz Merodio, Daniel CSIC; García Armada, Elena CSIC ORCID | Fecha de publicación: | 5-ene-2018 | Editor: | Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute | Citación: | Actuators 7 (1): 1 (2018) | Resumen: | Adjustable compliant actuators are being designed and implemented in robotic devices because of their ability to minimize large forces due to impacts, to safely interact with the user, and to store and release energy in passive elastic elements. Conceived as a new force-controlled compliant actuator, an adjustable rigidity with embedded sensor and locking mechanism actuator (ARES-XL) is presented in this paper. This compliant system is intended to be implemented in a gait exoskeleton for children with neuro muscular diseases (NMDs) to exploit the intrinsic dynamics during locomotion. This paper describes the mechanics and initial evaluation of the ARES-XL, a novel variable impedance actuator (VIA) that allows the implementation of an add-on locking mechanism to this system, and in combination with its zero stiffness capability and large deflection range, provides this novel joint with improved properties when compared to previous prototypes developed by the authors and other state-of-the-art (SoA) devices. The evaluation of the system proves how this design exceeds the main capabilities of a previous prototype as well as providing versatile actuation that could lead to its implementation in multiple joints. | Versión del editor: | http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/act7010001 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/159583 | DOI: | 10.3390/act7010001 | Identificadores: | doi: 10.3390/act7010001 |
