Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A motorized device arranged to move using cyclic motion is disclosed. The device includes a motorized means; at least one limb coupled to the motorized means, and configured to be driven by the motorized means for moving the device; and a resilient biasing means coupled to the at least one limb to further drive the at least one limb using mechanical resonance. A related method of moving the motorized device is also disclosed.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A motorized device arranged to move using cyclic motion, the device comprising: at least two DC motors; at least one limb coupled to the at least two DC motors, and configured to be driven by the at least two DC motors for moving the device; and a resilient biaser coupled to the at least one limb and configured to further drive the at least one limb using mechanical resonance configured to occur at a flapping frequency of the at least one limb.…
