Background
A robot is an automatic manipulator that simulates some of the motion functions of a human hand and arm to grasp, transport objects or manipulate tools according to a fixed program. Which combines the advantages of both human and robotic machines in their construction and performance and can be programmed to perform a variety of desired tasks.
The manipulator is the earliest industrial robot and the earliest modern robot, can replace the heavy labor of people to realize the mechanization and automation of production, can operate in harmful environment to protect personal safety, and is widely applied to mechanical manufacturing, metallurgy, electronics, light industry, atomic energy and other departments.
The clamp type or parallel moving type mechanical arm is designed for the functions of a certain specific requirement, is simple in structural control and convenient to operate, and has high practicability for a large-range large-load mechanical arm.
However, there are several disadvantages in this method:
1. the positioning and holding-pinching are completed by increasing the pressure and improving the friction force, no geometrical and mechanical closed chain exists, and high accuracy, stability and reliability are difficult to achieve in the grabbing of some objects.
2. It has restricted the manipulator accurate positioning and has snatched the function. The traditional mechanical arm adjusts the position state of the mechanical arm by adjusting the front position of the tail end. However, the overall size of the manipulator is large, and the adjustment of the working position and the adjustment of the control coordinate position of the manipulator are complicated, so that the stable and reliable control precision in the working area is difficult to achieve.
3. The precise grabbing control is lack of fine, small, flexible and reliable, and only objects with regular shapes and low mechanical requirements can be finished.
4. Cannot adapt to the change of the appearance of the object. For objects with extremely small individuals or unique appearances, the objects are difficult to grab, and the capturing success rate of the objects is reduced.

the connectingrope 6 is led out by the steering engine group and returns to the steering engine group after respectively bypassing the knuckle, thepalm part 12 or thewrist part 2.
More specifically, in the present embodiment:
as shown in fig. 1 and 2, there are 5finger members 11, which are respectively athumb member 111, anindex finger member 112, amiddle finger member 113, aring finger member 114 and asmall finger member 115, which are arranged in sequence, wherein thethumb member 111 is arranged at one side of thepalm member 12, and theindex finger member 112, themiddle finger member 113, thering finger member 114 and thesmall finger member 115 are arranged at the front end of thepalm member 12 in sequence. Wherein,thumb piece 111 has two knuckles: afirst knuckle 1101 and athird knuckle 1103, both hingedly connected; the remainingfingers 11 all have three knuckles: afirst knuckle 1101, asecond knuckle 1102, and athird knuckle 1103;first knuckle 1101,second knuckle 1102 andthird knuckle 1103 are glued in sequence, and the lower end ofthird knuckle 1103 is hinged topalm member 12. Thus, the knuckles can rotate relatively around the hinge. Thefirst knuckle 1101 is constituted by afingertip 1104 and amale member 1105 fixedly connected by printing glue, thesecond knuckle 1102 is constituted by amale member 1105 and afemale member 1106 fixedly connected by printing glue, and thethird knuckle 1103 is constituted by twofemale members 1106 fixedly connected by printing glue.

Thus, where the first, second andthird knuckles 1101, 1102 and 1102 are all intermediate hinges, rotation is possible, and the finger has the ability to move in multiple complex motions. The articulation of the first andthird knuckles 1101, 1103 of thethumb piece 111 is similar to that of theother finger pieces 11. By adopting the design of multiple dexterous fingers, the object can be more stably and firmly grabbed in the grabbing or pinching action, and the multi-dexterous finger has stronger mobility. Two trapezoidal bosses with abutted top surfaces are arranged in the convex section of theconvex part 1105 to form a V-shaped channel together, so that the connectingrope 6 can bypass the V-shaped channel and the extending direction of the connecting rope is reversed; an opening for allowing the connectingrope 6 to pass through is further provided at the front end of thefingertip 1104 of thefinger member 11, and the connectingrope 6 is turned through the opening.
