SMALL JUMPING ROBOT ACTUATED BY SHAPE MEMORY ALLOY

摘要

PURPOSE: A small jumping and moving robot driven by shape memory alloy is provided to be moved while jumping without the use of an electric motor by transforming the shape memory alloy through the transmission of an electric signal. CONSTITUTION: A small jumping and moving robot driven by shape memory alloy comprises a body frame(110), a shape memory alloy wire(122) and four leg units. The shape memory alloy wire is installed in the body frame. According to the characteristic of power, the shape memory alloy wire expands and contracts the wire. The four leg units are connected to the body frame. The four leg units changes the contraction and expansion motion of the shape memory alloy wire into the jumping motion.
