The Design and Kinematic Analysis of a Seven-DOF Electric Operation Robot
摘要
In order to enhance the intelligence of substation power cabinet inspection, this paper investigates a 7-DOF hybrid emergency robot integrating a lift mechanism and a six-axis robotic arm. The robot’s structure, control system, and kinematic model are presented, with an emphasis on the improved Denavit-Hartenberg (D-H) method used to establish its forward and inverse kinematics. Simulations in MATLAB validate the kinematic model and demonstrate the advantages of the 7-DOF configuration through workspace comparisons. Motion planning based on real operation scenarios further verifies task feasibility. The results provide a theoretical foundation for intelligent control and improve the efficiency, safety, and adaptability of substation inspection tasks.
