A pneumatic particle-blocking variable-stiffness bending actuator
This study introduces a variable-stiffness pneumatic bending actuator to enhance the stiffness of flexible robots. The bending actuator combines the working principles of a pneumatic drive, a wedge structure, and particle blockage. It enables one-dimensional, bidirectional bending motion and offers...
