Abstract:This paper proposes an innovative active coupled multimodal robot (ACMR). The unique modal conversion mechanism and active coupled mechanism of ACMR enable the robot to have two types of motion actuators, propeller and wheel, which can move smoothly and efficiently in both the air and on the ground while only using a set of brushless motor drive source. The modal conversion mechanism adopts a turbine worm drive, which facilitates the adjustment of arbitrary whirling arm shapes ranging from 0-90° and allows mai… Show more
