Omni wheels robot by DFRobot

Last crawled date: 3 years ago
Recently I have designed this omni wheels robot, which can move on the ground agilely. This idea was inspired by a electronic trash can made one or two years ago by a Japanese guy, who in the video is throwing waste paper behind, knowing the controlled trash can will come up and catch the paper-ball. The algorism inside is that the trash can first identify the paper-ball, and then calculate the possible drop point, and fast move to that point in respond. The motion transmission mechanism is smartly designed too, using only two motors to achieve the whole motion, one enables the wheel move forward or backward, while the other controls the angle of turn.
In my design, I would like to improve the motion transmission mechanism. Instead of using ordinary wheels, I wanted to make a robot with omni wheels, driven by three 42 stepper motors. Robot Rovio was a good example for reference. I disassembled its movement mechanism and reverse engineered it. Then I started to think how to set up my own robot.
I decided to make an experiment version at the beginning, which was of low cost and easy to assemble. First, the frame should be assembled very low in space. Second, with enough strength, the wall of the frame should be as thin as possible. That’s how I made the first version with a simple round structure frame. The frame consisted of three triangle-shaped bases. Three omni wheels were equally spaced in the gap of bases, while each of them was driven by a 42 stepper motor assembled on frame. In order to avoid barrier, a Robopeak laser radar was assembled on a round laser cut acrylic board at the top of the robot.
Once the mechanical parts were done, I started to build electrical parts. I made a temporary single sided PCB by heat transfer printing method (first transfer printing, then corroding, drilling, and at last welding). The electric schematic diagram was referred to DreamMaker 3D printer main board. The stepper drivers’ signal pins are defined as the three axis movement of the 3D printer. In addition, a relay (5V to drive) was designed on to the board.
