Embodiment 1

[0027] A front positioning device for a warehouse-type robot for competition (see figure 1 ), including a positioning fork 1 and a positioning baffle plate 2, the positioning fork 1 is installed on the front end of the chassis 401 of the warehouse robot 4 through the fixing plate 3 and bolts, and the opening 101 of the positioning fork 1 is an open arc-shaped structure ( see figure 2 ), the bottom 1011 of the opening 101 is an inner circular arc that coincides with the outer circular surface of the positioning column 501 of the shelf 5, and the two antennae sides 1012 of the opening 101 are an outer circular arc that smoothly transitions and connects with the inner circular arc at the bottom of the opening Section, the upper parts of the two sides 102 of the positioning fork 1 are respectively hypotenuses inclined inwardly at α=30 degrees;

[0028] As a modification of the first embodiment, the angle α may also be any value between 30° and 75°, such as 45°, 50°, 60°, 65°, 7...

Abstract

The invention discloses a front positioning device for a storage type robot for competition, and relates to an auxiliary device of a robot. The front positioning device comprises a positioning fork mounted at the front end of a bottom frame of the storage type robot, and an opening of the positioning fork adopts an opened circular arc structure; the bottom of the opening is an inner circular arc section which is matched with the excircle surface of a poisoning column of a goods shelf; two tentacle edges of the opening are outer circular arc sections which are in smooth transition connection with the inner circular arc section of the bottom of the opening; the upper parts of the two side edges of the positioning fork are inclined edges which are inclined inwards by an angle alpha ranging from 30 degrees to 75 degrees respectively; and a positioning baffle is further mounted below the positioning fork. According to the front positioning device, deformation design of the positioning fork is performed, and one positioning baffle is added below the positioning fork, so that the reliable positioning range of the robot can be enlarged, the requirement for robot tracking can be reduced, the right positioning probability is improved, and the robot is parallel to a goods shelf after each positioning; and although the structure is simpler, the performance is very reliable, and the front positioning device is easy to popularize and apply.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a small storage robot and an auxiliary device for a competition robot, in particular to a front positioning device for a storage robot for competition. Background technique [0002] Competitive storage robots usually require the robot to grab or store goods on the shelf according to certain rules, and transport them to the designated location along a certain route. During this process, the robot generally relies on the robot's tracking device, CPU and other devices Cooperate with a certain software algorithm to control the speed of the motors on the left and right sides of the robot, and the positioning of the robot is usually completed by the positioning fork installed on the front (front end) of the robot and the positioning column of the shelf. Most of the existing positioning fork structures use the positioning fork with a V-shaped opening. The opening of this positioning fork is proportional to the length of the antenna. O...
