The invention relates to a secure, motor-driven hinge to be mounted between a first and second member of a humanoid robot, characterized in that said hinge includes: a motor (21) including a stationary portion (25), to be connected to the first member, and a movable portion (26), movable relative to the stationary portion (25) and intended for connecting to the second member relative to the first member; a brake (22) capable of exerting a force on the movable portion (26) of the motor (21) by means of a spring effect, such as to prevent the movable portion (26) from moving relative to the stationary portion (25); and an actuator (23) capable of moving the brake (22) by opposing the spring effect such as to release the movable portion (26) of the engine (25) from the force of the brake (22) and enabling the motor (21) to move the movable portion (26) relative to the stationary portion (25).
The invention relates to a secured motorized articulation intended to be mounted between a first limb and a second limb of a humanoid-type robot, characterized in that it comprises: a motor comprising a fixed part intended to be linked to the first limb, and a mobile part that can be moved relative to the fixed part and intended tc be linked to the second limb relative to the first limb, a brake capable of exerting a force on the mobile part of the motor by spring effect, to prevent the movement of the mobile part relative to the fixed part, an actuator capable of displacing the brake by opposing the spring effect, so as to release the mobile part of the motor from the force of the brake and allow the motor to move the mobile part relative to the fixed part.
