In this paper, we proposed a Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO) to search the optimal link lengths for legged walking robot. In order to apply the PSO algorithm for the proposed, its walking robot kinematic analysis is needed. A crab robot based on four-bar linkage mechanism and Jansen mechanism is implemented in H/W. For the performance index of PSO, the stride length of the legged walking robot is defined, based on the propose kinematic analysis. Comparative simulation results present to illustrate the viability and effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this study, a crab robot is implemented in H/W based on four-bar linkage mechanism and Jansen mechanism, and its kinematics is analysed. A vision camera is attached to the mechanism, which makes the proposed robot a kind of biologically inspired robot for image acquisition. Three ultrasonic sensors are adopted for obstacle avoidance. In addition, the biologically inspired robot can achieve the mission appointed by a programmer outside, based on RF and Blue-tooth communication module. For the design and implementation of a crab robot, it is need to get joint variable, a foot point, and their relation. Thus, the proposed kinematic analysis is very important process for the design and implementation of legged robots.

Experimental verification of numerical results is conducted by measuring the dynamic strains of mid-points of the coupler and the lever for the 4-bar linkage mechanism with rigid bearing and flexible bearing, respectively. For the axial strain of lever mid-point, the numerical results including geometric stiffness almost agree with the experimental ones, however, the numerical results excluding geometric stiffness almost agree with the experimental ones for the axial strain of coupler mid-point. It is supposed that these phenomena should be caused by the fact that the motion of the coupler is more complicated than of the lever. The signals of dynamic strains of coupler and lever mid-points, measured by strain gages, are transformed into frequency domain by fast fourier transformer. From this experiment, the lst resonance frequencies of the coupler and the lever are obtained. It is made clear that the former almost agrees with the fundamental and the latter the 2nd mode natural frequency of the mechanism system calculated by numerical analysis.

In this study, the controller structure and control algorithm of medical robot bed developed for pressure ulcer prevention and healing are described. The existing pressure ulcer prevention mattress is operated manually and the remaining maximum body pressure exceeds the pressure of ulcer generation, so there is always room for pressure ulcers. However, the system developed in this study does not generate the pressure ulcers because the body pressure drops to zero when the keyboard of the bed descends using the active electric driving keyboard. In addition, even if the bed is raised and the pressure above the critical body ulcer pressure is abnormal, the device and the control algorithm are designed so that the lasting time is within the pressure ulcer generation critical time and the pressure ulcer itself is not generated. The bed key board motor is a motor designed with the BLDC servos suitable for medical use and these can communicate each other easily through CAN(Car Area Network). The system is new medical robot bed that is effective in preventing pressure ulcers and will be distributed to many patients suffering from pressure ulcers.
