Abstract

See full text

A non-backdrivable passive balancing system for a single-axle dynamically balanced robotic device includes a body that includes a distal end and a proximal end, a controller module, and an actuator communicatively coupled to the controller module of the single-axle dynamically balanced robotic device. The actuator receives an engagement signal from the controller module, the engagement signal corresponding to an indication that the dynamically balanced robotic device is stationary, and the actuator causes the linkage to move the body from a disengaged position to an engaged position such that the distal end of the body contacts a ground surface and supports the dynamically balanced robotic device in a substantially upright position.
