The present invention relates to an electromagnetic coil system for driving control of a microrobot. More specifically, the present invention relates to an electromagnetic coil system which has a structure with fewer number of electromagnetic coils compared with a conventional electromagnetic coil system which needs a pair of Helmholtz coils and a pair of Maxwell coils to reduce the size of an operation system and power consumption in order to improve power efficiency and space efficiency. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the electromagnetic coil system for driving control of a microrobot includes a pair of x-axis Helmholtz coils each having a central axis of winding on the x-axis; a pair of y-axis Helmholtz coils each having a central axis of winding on the y-axis; a position recognition system detecting the position and direction of a microrobot in a working space; a control unit controlling the amount of current flowing in the x-axis Helmholtz coils or the y-axis Helmholtz coils to control the movement of the microrobot based on the information on the movement of the microrobot obtained by the position recognition system and pre-inputted information on paths of the microrobot; and a current amplifying unit responding to a current control command of the control unit to supply the corresponding current to each of the Helmholtz coils, wherein the pair of x-axis Helmholtz coils are disposed to face each other, the pair of y-axis Helmholtz coils are disposed to face each other, and the x-axis Helmholtz coils and the y-axis Helmholtz coils are installed to cross each other at the right angle to form the working space of the microrobot.

Abstract:
A device for generating stiffness and a joint of a robot manipulator comprising the same are provided to achieve stiffness generated by electric force from electromagnets and variable stiffness for the rotation of a link. A device for generating stiffness comprises a rotating shaft(110), a rotor(120), a stator(130), a plurality of electromagnets and a current application unit(161). The rotary shaft is connected to a passive member. The stator surrounds the rotor from the outside the arm, and is connected to a driving motor for driving the passive member, so as to be rotated by the rotation of the driving motor. The plurality of electromagnets, each having a core disposed in a radial direction of the rotating shaft and a coil wounded around the core, are spaced away from the arm in regular intervals on the inner periphery of the stator and are opposite from each other around the rotating shaft. The current application unit applies current to the coils. Half of the electromagnets are wounded up by the coils to generate N pole on the ends towards the rotating shaft while the other half of the electromagnets are wounded up by the coils to generate S pole on the ends towards the rotating shaft.
