ABSTRACT:
An improved foot system for a jointed leg type walking robot capable of more stably walking on both even and uneven ground surfaces by providing a jointed leg type foot system with a front toe cylinder and a rear toe cylinder each communicated with a front toe assembly and a rear toe assembly. In addition, it is capable of more stably landing on uneven ground surface and absorbing landing impacts more efficiently, which includes a lower foot body; an upper foot body mounted on the top of said lower foot body; a gas accumulator formed within the lower foot body; a front toe assembly pivotally attached to a predetermined portion of the lower foot body; and a rear toe assembly pivotally attached to a predetermined portion of the lower foot body.
