High efficiency structural building system for robotics

摘要

A robotic building system includes a first through third sets of extruded elements integrally joined at lengthwise edges and corners to rails. The second set of extruded elements has at least three adjoining sides surrounding a hollow opening, where each side is integrally joined to a rail. A third set of extruded elements has an asymmetrical inside angle shaped element formed by a first web and a second web oriented generally perpendicular to the first web, where each web is integrally affixed between a pair of opposing rails and each web shares a common rail. The rails may be tapped or drilled to accept a fastener, and each extruded element of the first set, second set and third set of extruded elements are adapted to be flush mounted to any of the other extruded elements or to the same shape extruded elements.

1. A robotic construction system comprising:
a first set of extruded elements having opposing lengthwise ends each end integrally joined to a rail or rectangular cross-sectional column; a second set of extruded elements having at least three adjoining sides surrounding a hollow opening, where each side is integrally joined to a rail or rectangular cross-sectional column; a third set of extruded elements having an angle shaped element formed by a first web and a second web oriented generally perpendicular to the first web, where each web is integrally affixed between a pair of opposing rails or rectangular cross-sectional columns and each web shares a common rail or rectangular cross-sectional column; wherein each rail or rectangular cross-sectional column is adapted to be tapped or drilled to accept a fastener; and wherein each extruded element of the first set, second set and third set of extruded elements are adapted to be flush mounted on at least one surface to any of the other extruded elements or to the same shape extruded elements.
