This paper is to reduce the contact impact, control the leg stiffness and bouncing height. Firstly, the combining position/force active compliance control was involved in the deceleration phase to decrease the impact force and improve the leg compliance capacity. Then a reasonable velocity control of cylinder was addressed to control the bouncing height to the given value in the acceleration phase. Due to the model uncertainties and disturbances in the deceleration and acceleration phase, a near inverse like controller with a proportional and differential control (PD) was added into the velocity control of acceleration phase to compensate the bouncing height control error. Finally, the effectiveness of proposed controller was validated by experiments. Experimental results showed the impact force could be reduced effectively and a significant bouncing height control performance could be achieved. The influences of initial energy, preload of spring and velocity of cylinder on the bouncing height were addressed as well.
