Presentation transcript:

Tendon path design of the module. Tendon path design of the module. Tendon friction was minimized to increase force transmission and not to constrain antagonistic actuation. The folding process is in order of A to C. The deployment process follows the reverse order. (A) Tendon path when the module is deployed and the lockers are locked. (B) Locker in transitional position. When the tendon was pulled upward to fold the module, Fz and FL were applied to the module. (C) Tendon path when the module is being folded. During folding, the tendon moved along the slit from Bn to Cn (yellow double-headed arrow). During deployment, the tendon stayed at Cn owing to the bent slit. Upper figures depict trimetric views of the module. The figure shows only two frontal chains for simplicity. Lower figures depict a top view of the module. Suk-Jun Kim et al. Sci.
