Analog Skeletal Muscle Drive Model Based on Digital Hydraulic Technology

In order to improve the performance and efficiency of the drive system, the skeletal muscle driving mechanism was studied in this paper by using animal skeletal muscle as bionic object. Based on the deep analysis of the microstructure and sliding mechanism of skeletal muscle, the hierarchical structure and drive mode of skeletal muscle were simplified, the digital hydraulic drive model of analog skeletal muscle was established, and the principle of skeletal driving based on digital hydraulic technology was analyzed. Consequently, a method of analog skeletal muscle drive system based on digital hydraulic was proposed, and the required flow and energy efficiency were analyzed and simulated. The results show that the digital hydraulic drive system of analog skeletal muscle can reduce the system flow and improve the energy efficiency compared with the traditional hydraulic system.
