A Micro-scale Magnetic Tumbling Microrobot
This paper presents a magnetic tumbling microrobot design at the micro-scale. The microrobot has a dumbbell shape whose largest dimension is about 400 μm. When subjected to an exterior predefined magnetic field, the magnetic microagent performs a tumbling motion driven by the interacting magnetic forces and momentums. The magnetic field providing driven force is generated by a coil system consi...
متن کاملA Mobile Self-reconfigurable Microrobot with Power and Communication Relays
A modular mobile self‐reconfigurable microrobot is developed to enlarge the whole surveillance range of mobile microrobot. The microrobot is designed as differential driven vehicle equipped with a passive universal connector with autonomic engagement/disengagement function, and actuated by MEMS‐based electromagnetic micromotors. To realize that the microrobot is autonomous, its electr...
متن کاملRoom Temperature Operable Autonomously Moving Bio-Microrobot Powered by Insect Dorsal Vessel Tissue
Living muscle tissues and cells have been attracting attention as potential actuator candidates. In particular, insect dorsal vessel tissue (DVT) seems to be well suited for a bio-actuator since it is capable of contracting autonomously and the tissue itself and its cells are more environmentally robust under culturing conditions compared with mammalian tissues and cells. Here we demonstrate an...
متن کاملMiniaturized Rotary Actuators Using Shape Memory Alloy for Insect-Type MEMS Microrobot
Although several types of locomotive microrobots have been developed, most of them have difficulty locomoting on uneven surfaces. Thus, we have been focused on microrobots that can locomote using step patterns. We are studying insect-type microrobot systems. The locomotion of the microrobot is generated by rotational movements of the shape memory alloy-type rotary actuator. In addition, we have...
متن کاملSelf-excited Lateral Vibrations of Rolling Tires
In this study, a low degree-of-freedom mechanical model of a rolling tire is constructed, in which the lateral deformation of the contact patch and tire carcass is considered. The so-called delayed contact patch model is implemented and combined with a simple tire carcass model. The interaction between the contact patch and the carcass together with the lateral mode of the attached suspension s...
