摘要: At present, the research of robots imitating water strider is mainly focusing on skating movement insects. In contrast, jumping motion striders needs a sufficiently large driving force to lift body detaching from surface, which easy break hydrophobic property material and result in sinking robot, so there few water-jumping robots. This paper designed new robot using as legs springs energy storage devices. By establishing model forces exerted supporting were analyzed simulated separately. Then was fabricated by 3D printing technology, parameters affected performance verified through series experiments. Based above analysis experiments, structure optimized. The optimized weighed 12.2g jumped 50mm high.
