Modern Methods of Designing and Producing Elements for Walking Robots Working in Highly Dynamic Conditions

The article discusses the issues of using modern methods of designing and manufacturing elements of walking robots operating in conditions of high dynamics. The work concerns the practical application of elastic compliance using composite springs with carbon fiber plates as springs in a robot leg driven by electric actuators with ball screw gears, used as redundant double-joint drives in biped robot systems. The construction of the robot's skeleton also uses an additive model manufacturing technique called 3D printing. It is a highly specialized technique for producing geometric models, often with complex shapes. This publication considers the possibility of using this technique to produce prototypes of structural parts that can be directly used in the construction of a bipedal robot with flexible drives.
