The invention provides an electric liquid crystal elastomer wheel. The electric liquid crystal elastomer wheel comprises a wheel frame, a liquid crystal elastomer driver, a conducting strip and a conducting plane, the wheel frame is made of a flexible material; the wheel frame is connected with the connecting piece located in the center of the wheel frame through a plurality of liquid crystal elastomer drivers. The conducting strips are distributed on the outer side of the wheel frame at intervals and correspond to the liquid crystal elastomer drivers in a one-to-one mode. Each conducting strip is electrically connected with the liquid crystal elastomer driver corresponding to the adjacent conducting strip; the connecting piece is electrically connected with the liquid crystal elastomer driver and is used for providing electric energy for deformation of the liquid crystal elastomer driver; the conductive plane is laid below the wheel frame along the moving direction of the wheel; in the rolling process of the wheel frame, the different conducting strips and the conducting planes are alternately connected and disconnected, so that the corresponding liquid crystal elastomer drivers deform and are used for driving the wheels to roll. According to the invention, the continuous directional movement of the soft robot can be realized.

    本发明提供了一种电动液晶弹性体车轮,包括车轮框架、液晶弹性体驱动器、导电片和导电平面;所述车轮框架为柔性材料;所述车轮框架与位于车轮框架中心的连接件通过若干液晶弹性体驱动器连接;若干所述导电片间隔分布在车轮框架外侧,且所述导电片与液晶弹性体驱动器一一对应;每个导电片与其相邻的导电片所对应的液晶弹性体驱动器电性连接;所述连接件与液晶弹性体驱动器之间电性连接,用于给液晶弹性体驱动器形变提供电能;所述导电平面沿车轮移动方向铺设在所述车轮框架下方;在车轮框架滚动过程中,利用不同的导电片与导电平面交替通断,使对应的液晶弹性体驱动器产生形变,用于驱动车轮滚动。本发明可实现了软体机器人的连续定向运动。
