- 适合需要轻量化高承载的复杂地形机器人设计。
在复杂地形施工环境中,机器人需兼具高负载能力和灵活移动性。作为关键承力部件,机器人腿部结构的优化尤为重要。本文针对建筑机器人腿部结构,提出基于SIMP(Solid Isotropic Microstructures with Penalization)变密度法的拓扑优化策略,并结合结构再设计方法。通过ANSYS进行有限元分析,首先对初始设计开展静力学与模态分析,验证其合理性;随后对占腿部重量最大比例的股骨部分应用SIMP变密度法进行拓扑优化,经迭代计算后完成二次结构重构。优化后,股骨质量降低19.45%,整腿质量减少7.92%,实现轻量化目标。最后对重构后的腿部再次进行静力学与模态分析,结果表明优化后结构仍满足性能要求,验证了轻量化设计的可行性。本研究为建筑机器人轻量化设计提供了坚实的理论与技术支撑,为其在复杂施工环境中的高效运行奠定基础。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
In complex terrain construction environments, there are high demands for robots to achieve both high payload capacity and mobility flexibility. As the key load-bearing component, the optimization of robotic leg structures is of particular importance. Therefore, this study focuses on the optimization of leg structures for construction robots, proposing a topology optimization strategy based on the SIMP (Solid Isotropic Microstructures with Penalization) variable density method along with a structural re-design approach. The design performance is comprehensively validated through finite element analysis using ANSYS. First, static and modal analyses are conducted to evaluate the rationality of the initial design. Then, topology optimization using the SIMP-based variable density method is applied to the femur section, which accounts for the largest proportion of the leg's weight. Based on iterative calculations, the femur undergoes secondary structural reconstruction. After optimization, the mass of the femur is reduced by 19.45\%, and the overall leg mass decreases by 7.92\%, achieving the goal of lightweight design. Finally, static and modal analyses are conducted on the reconstructed leg. The results demonstrate that the optimized leg still meets structural performance requirements, validating the feasibility of lightweight design. This research provides robust theoretical and technical support for lightweight construction robot design and lays a foundation for their efficient operation in complex construction environments.
