Abstract:This paper introduces a multi‐degree of freedom bionic crocodile robot designed to tackle the challenge of cleaning pollutants and debris from the surfaces of narrow, shallow rivers. The robot mimics the “death roll” motion of crocodiles which is a technique used for object disintegration. First, the design incorporated a swinging tail mechanism using a multi‐section oscillating guide‐bar mechanism. By analyzing three‐, four‐, and five‐section tail structures, the four‐section tail was identified as the most e… Show more
