This paper presents a mechanical jumping leg with the capability of jumping, retracting the leg in the air and adjusting the energy of spring. For the purpose of reducing the weight and the energy consumption, the jumping leg is actuated by a single motor. The 5-bar linkage is adopted as the main part of the leg including the foot and the tarsometatarsal joint to enhance the stability during jumping and landing. The key motion of each phase in the whole jump is analyzed by simulation. Experiments are implemented on the jumping leg robot, and the result demonstrates that it has good capability of jumping, shows high jumping efficiency, and can retract the leg in the air for landing steadily. The mechanical leg will be applied to the design of jumping frog robot as hindlimb.

The objective of this study is to provide catheterization with a three-dimensional (3D) guiding image and reduce the collision probability between the catheter tip and vascular wall. A bidirectional steerable catheter was integrated with two magnetic position-tracking sensors on both sides of its bending segment. The tracking information was displayed on the guiding image, which helped the surgeons to determine the relative position between the catheter tip and surrounding vessels. The navigation path was generated on the basis of the vascular skeleton. Moreover, along the path, a series of guiding circular planes were set as the guidance for the catheter. Three operations (bending, advancing, and twisting) were jointly conducted to get the catheter through these guiding planes in turn and eventually into the target vessel. The effectiveness of the proposed navigation method was verified by experiments implemented in an aorta vascular phantom. The navigation system has a mean error of 0.19mm, a root mean square of 0.49?mm, and a standard deviation of 0.46?mm.
The configuration design of in-pipe robot locomotion mechanism has a significant impact on its motion performance. By analyzing the operation principle of adapting mechanism, the basic four-bar linkage is chosen as ba...

The problems such as inadequate precision, excessive radiation, over fatigue and other issues urgently need to be resolved in the cervical artificial disc replacement surgery. In this paper, a medical robot system has been developed to replace the fixture system used in the cervical artificial disc replacement surgery. Firstly, the medical robot mechanical design with an active parallel head and a passive serial body assisting the artificial cervical disc replacement surgery is proposed. Then, the workspace analysis and control system design of the parallel robot are presented. Finally, the surgical navigation technologies such as surgical planning, surgical navigation and positioning, and the grinding trajectory planning technologies involved in the robot system assisting the cervical artificial disc replacement surgery are described. It can be seen that the robot-assisted cervical artificial disc replacement surgery has opened up a new way for the cervical disease treatment.
