Chapter 21 When you get bigger, why don't you buy a toy?
The Arctic Ocean's rejection of Taili is just a momentary anger, and it has to be supported by others, and bipedal robots are also the only way to develop themselves.
The steel tank in front was hastily completed and only the upper body was made, and now it was time to start developing and designing the lower body and developing a balance system.
Convened a meeting of the children of the Zhao family, originally this matter had nothing to do with them, but the strange thing is that everyone obeyed the arrangement, leisurely developed new materials, Wanwan and Wushuang developed a balance system, Zhao Chunlai is a person who everyone can get any energy they want, otherwise they wouldn't have come up with a railgun so quickly last time.
Until now, the United States has been studying the issue of energy supply for steel tanks.
Yanchun and Arctic Ocean designed, produced, assembled and tested the joint moving parts of the steel tank, and they were the most resource-consuming and physically demanding.
The three-dimensional drawing of the bipedal robot is displayed on the computer, and when the movement is simulated, the computer almost crashes because there are too many associated parameters.
Calculating, hand joints, knuckles, wrist joints, elbow joints of each joint of the movement angle, cylinder telescopic length range, limit switch, photoelectric induction, motor drive angle, axis accuracy, of which the spine part is really imitation of the human body, installed twenty-four vertebrae, between the vertebrae and the vertebrae with a high rigidity spring series, a hydraulic lever to drive the telescopic. This is the optimization part.
Next, the hips, thighs, calves, and feet should not only achieve flexibility and freedom of the joints, but also meet sufficient load-bearing capacity.
Originally, two hydraulic cylinders were used to bend the legs, but it was found that the legs could only be bent and upright at the same time, so two hydraulic cylinders were added, so that the space of the crotch could only be placed in the hydraulic station that drove the legs, and there was no other space.
In order to achieve the balance of the mecha, the preliminary design of the mecha has a large foot, and the connection between each leg and foot is equipped with strong buffer springs on the left and right sides, and at the same time, there is a hydraulic cylinder in the middle.
This time, the robot has a head, and although the key control part will not be installed on the fragile head, the vision system still needs to be placed at the highest point. One left and one right eyes are installed with a single-lens reflex camera, coupled with a visual processing system, a 3D image is presented on the screen, according to Wan Wan, VR technology will be realized later, and the operation is more flexible.
In this way, a robot with thick legs and big feet and a big buttocks is displayed between the eyes, simulating the movement, and it feels smoother. So in addition to assigning Zhao Jiaban to provide materials according to demand, the factory he was responsible for also arranged the production of steel structures.
After a busy meal, Arctic Ocean sat quietly in his chair, his eyes glazed and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Wan Wan patted him and asked him what he wanted? The Arctic Ocean scratched his head and said, "Wanwan, you have to help me." ”
The short and fat Wan Wan pushed his glasses: "You're thinking about the standardization of mecha parts, right?" ”
Arctic Ocean nodded and said: "Yes, just like human beings, there are brains for thinking, lungs for breathing, heart for body circulation, stomach and intestines for energy absorption, eyes for vision, and ears for hearing. I think that if the robot has the standard parts of these things, then the robot will really achieve intelligence, mass production, and high quality. ”
Wan Wan pushed his glasses and said: "This should be considered in the long run, and we will develop what we need in the production process." ”
Arctic Ocean nodded, now the priority is to maximize energy and minimize volume, and can replace hydraulic cylinders that can provide power and resist pressure, and most importantly have a high-quality motor shaft with cushioning force.
The mobile phone is on the table next to me, the only free ear in the Arctic Ocean is listening to the news, what the Ministry of Foreign Affairs explains the possible impact of the Himalayas on the climate, what the National Aviation Administration restarts the moon landing program, what National Security Day The Ministry of Information of China and the Ministry of Public Security of China carry out important actions, etc., all of which are strange things.
If there is a moon landing plan, just ask Zhao Wushuang, but when I think of Wushuang's indifferent temperament, I am afraid that I can't ask anything, how can state secrets be leaked.
Looking at the mecha that is about to take shape, it is more than 2 meters tall, and the head is not important because of its actual use, so it completely restores the appearance of the Gundam in equal proportions.
The outer armor of the upper body is made of steel plates with a thickness of five millimeters through a bending machine and a stamping machine, and is welded, riveted, and threaded. The upper body looks like a Jim Gundam.
The lower body has two legs, and considering the problem of balancing the load-bearing, the skeleton parts are relatively large, so the external armor is more of a one-time casting part. So the legs look round and like Zaku.
The footsteps are divided into the sole of the foot and the heel, one large and one small two horns, the grip is changed by the telescopic of the hydraulic cylinder, and the contact span with the ground is adapted to different scenes.
Looking at the prototype in front of him, Arctic Ocean was very excited, this was already very close to his dream.
Achievements need to be shared with others, and the Arctic Ocean called Wan Wan and Zhao Chunlai to share achievements on the one hand, and on the other hand, they need to install energy blocks and control systems.
After Zhao Chunlai's research and development, the energy block actually designed an energy battery that can supply a nuclear submarine power supply.
Holding a barrel of energy batteries with a diameter of 20 centimeters, when the Arctic Ocean heard that nuclear fusion was involved, he almost threw the battery away.
The battery provides direct current and is mounted horizontally on the waist of the mech as if it were being carried on its back.
Pull out two lines, one through the transformer to adjust into a high voltage, provided to the motor and hydraulic station of each joint, one through the transformer into weak current input to the PLC, PLC as the brain of the mecha is installed in the chest, at the same time the chest dense thin wires are distributed throughout the body like capillaries, control the relay, control the strong point switch time through the relay, control the hydraulic valve to adjust the pressure, and most importantly, send signals to the terminal processor through the limit switch, Form a perfect neurosensor-like system. These are all jobs.
Using the split modular principle of the steel tank, the bipedal robot is equipped with three parts: a sub-PLC that responds to the control of the chest PLC and a separate energy battery hydraulic station on the limbs and body.
After a few jumps in the proving ground, the robot named the Arctic Ocean Backpacker because the external battery on its back looked like it was carrying a cylindrical backpack.
After the Arctic Ocean test was fine, he called Taili for the final combat drill.
Just like last time, he broke in in a hurry, and when he saw the backpackers in the venue, he was stunned on the spot, and his expression was entangled.
"What's wrong? Dissatisfied? Did you find some Achilles' heel? Arctic Ocean asked.
Taili held back for a long time before he said with resentment: "From my experience, there is no need to try, this robot has a wide range of joints, solid materials, flexibility and high rigidity." ”
"Isn't that good?" The Arctic Ocean asked curiously.
"It's just, it's just, look at this." Taili opened a video, a video of a robot competition.
The Arctic Ocean saw the problem at a glance, the robot in the video screen was more than half a meter tall, and if you put the backpacker in it, it would be equivalent to throwing King Kong, who was making a lot of trouble in New York, in the crowd. That's not just one kick at a time.
"I didn't expect that even if I was tall, it was also a hard injury, and most of the robot joints in the video screen were single-motor movements, which was extremely inflexible." Arctic Ocean commented.
"Alas, I'm also drunk, and I didn't even tell you about the requirements of the competition for robots, and our robots are at least up to standard." Taili said, shaking his head.
Arctic Ocean touched his nose and said, "The game is also approaching, why don't you go buy a Transformers electric toy?" ”
