Abstract

Kinematic analysis is carried out for the structure of the swing-arm tracked mobile chassis. Forward and reverse kinematic analysis and modeling are performed for the most important over-barrier motion of the mobile chassis, which is to go over steps as an example. It is analyzed that the coordinates of the center of mass of the mobile chassis and the coordinates of the end of the swing arm are related to the time, the angle of the swing arm and the angle of the body to the horizontal during the process of overstepping. The research results can provide theoretical support for the motion capability of the swing arm tracked robot.
