Power source automatic docking device for automatic charging of wheeled robot

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of control over electric appliances, and provides a power source automatic docking device for automatic charging of a wheeled robot. The power source automatic docking device for automatic charging of the wheeled robot comprises a hung feed device and a vehicle-mounted powered device. The feed device comprises a motor, a lead screw, a sliding block, a sliding rail, a left limiting switch, a right limiting switch, a wire hanging rod, a hanging ring, a power line, a special power socket, a hanging spring, a hanging steel wire and a wireless controller. The powered device comprises a motor, a lead screw, a sliding block, a sliding rail, a supporting seat, a comb-shaped mechanical hand, an electrode inserting groove, a front limiting switch, a rear limiting switch and a docking controller. The automatic operation process of the automatic docking device simulates the power source docking behavior of people, is high in adaptability, accurate and high in reliability. As long as the wheeled robot is parked in an appointed area, even though front-back, left-right and height deviation exits, accurate control over taking, plugging in and pulling out of electrodes can all be achieved, and the complete process of power source automatic docking-separation is finished.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electric appliance control, and in particular relates to an automatic power supply docking device for autonomous charging of a wheeled robot. Background technique [0002] In the late 1940s, Gray Walter developed the first autonomous rechargeable mobile robots called Tortoises. This robot has the behavioral ability to walk towards the light in the neurological sense. Walter also invented a small cabinet that served as a charging station, with a device that emits a beam of light and a charger. Guided by the beam of light, the robot Tortoises automatically comes to the front of the cabinet to recharge autonomously through contact. This system can dock the battery with the charger with certain accuracy. [0003] In 1998, Tsukuba University in Japan successfully developed a tour guide robot named Yalnabico-Liv that can be charged automatically. By using the navigation system, the robot can use the map to autonomou...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] At present, the sweeping robots on the market can independently find special power sockets through infrared signals and automatically charge them, but the charging power is very small.
