Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to study the realization of turn‐over‐wok movement for a cooking robot.

Design/methodology/approach

First, the authors introduce the cooking robot's movement mechanism and its realization methods and then analyze the movement geometric of the movement mechanism. The authors conduct the force analysis of the material in the wok motion and suppose the moving situation of mass point m when turning over the wok and shaking the wok.

Findings

The problem of the cooking robot simulating the special cooking motion made by a chef is solved.

Practical implications

The robot is applicable to being a cooking robot for Chinese dishes.

Originality/value

The paper shows how to optimize the effect of material moving track and satisfies the requirements of wok motion of cooking robot.
