| | Hex565 - one leg at at time pneumatic hexapod
|
|
Over the last few weeks, I've been working on a pneumatic hexapod that moves one leg at a time. I got it working this morning. It is pretty cool. It uses 7 large pistons (six for making the legs move forward/backward) and one for controling the (...) (19 years ago, 4-Oct-05, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.robotics) !

(...) Yes. I've used it in walkers to switch from forward walking to reverse walking, and to switch from walking to turning and back. I move them by hand, rather than with pistons. With pistons, I consider them XOR gates. They work very well. Thanks (...) (19 years ago, 3-Oct-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) For a hexapod, I've revised the design and implemented it. The cost savings were not quite as high as I thought, but...... Pistons = 2n+1 (13) Switches = 5n+2 (32) I'll be posting pictures, movies, timing diagrams and schematics in a different (...) (19 years ago, 3-Oct-05, to lugnet.technic)
