Abstract;In this paper, we studied the influence which affects kick operation at the time of a walk by applying flexibility to a biped walking robot's toes on a foot. Moreover, by preparing a rotational spring mechanism in toes and an ankle on foot, and combining with them pertinently, we aimed at the improvement in walk efficiency. As a result of the simulation that the biped-walking robot made ZMP the norm walks dynamically, it was verifiable that stability and walk efficiency improves. (author abst.)
