Abstract

The dynamic formulation of micro robot based on Impact Drive Mechanism (IDM) was established by Lagrange method, and the solution and simulation of the model were presented. By vising Finite Element Method (FEM), the analysis on modal and transient of the robot mechanics were carried out. In the above two methods of analysis, the coupling problems about mechanics and electric field of piezoelectric bimorph and the contact friction model between robot feet and pipes were taken into account. The theory of Impact Drive Mechanism (IDM) is proved through comparing the results of two analysis methods, and the feasibility of pipe motion micro robot adopting the IDM theory is proved.
