An adaptive charging pile

Abstract

The invention provides an adaptive charging pile, which comprises a supporting column, a position adjustment module and an electrode module, wherein the upper end of the supporting column is provided with a bottom supporting plate; the position adjustment module comprises a middle supporting plate and an electrode bottom plate; the middle supporting plate is arranged on the bottom supporting plate in a horizontally movable mode; the electrode bottom plate is arranged on the middle supporting plate in a horizontally movable mode; and the electrode module is arranged on the electrode bottom plate. In a condition in which deviation exists between a robot and an electrode inlet of the charging pile, the electrode position of the charging pile can be automatically adjusted to be adapted to the butt joint error, the robot can be smoothly inserted in to the electrode for being charged, and a telescopic electrode and an arm of the robot can have small torque.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a self-use charging pile, which belongs to the technical field of robot charging. Background technique [0002] Chinese invention patent document CN104734291A "Inspection Robot Charging System and Charging Method" discloses a practical robot charging method and charging system, which has certain advanced features. The charging system has foldable and telescopic electrodes, which requires the robot to have a corresponding charging chamber and a high positioning function, and is suitable for more complex robot equipment. For some robots whose charging device is installed on the arm, this charging method mainly has the following problems: 1. When the robot arm is long, it is not appropriate to arrange a larger charging chamber at the end of the arm to receive the foldable charging electrode of the charging pile. It is more appropriate to set the retractable electrodes in the robot arm. 2. There are various errors in the charging...

Problems solved by technology

For some robots whose charging device is installed on the arm, this charging method mainly has the following problems: 1. When the robot arm is long, it is not appropriate to arrange a larger charging chamber at the end of the arm to receive the foldable charging electrode of the charging pile. It is more appropriate to set the retractable electrodes in the robot arm when

2. There are various errors in the charging alignment, and the charging pile is required to automatically adapt to this error and the lateral torque generated by the robot arm is small. This charging scheme cannot do this well

The charging contacts of the charging body of the charging device are arranged on both sides of the positioning guide head, and a matching power receiving body is required to cooperate with it. The power receiving base of the power receiving body is provided with a power receiving positioning slot matched with the positioning guide head, using CN104734291A The robot with retractable electrodes mentioned in can not perform automatic positioning and charging; the charging device is equipped with a central rotating mechanism, which can be self-adapted through rotation, but the rotation angle of the central rotating mechanism is difficult to control, so that the charging device has no impact on the robot's telescopic electrodes and robot arms. The size of the torque cannot be effectively controlled, if the torque is too large, it is easy to damage the telescopic electrode and the arm

The charging body of the charging device adopts the adaptation method of horizontal movement and horizontal rotation, which increases the complexity of the device to a certain extent, and at the same time needs to consider the angle of horizontal rotation; the docking tolerance of the guide pin guidance method Smaller, which requires sensor-assisted docking; its power receiving body is installed on the robot, and its volume is relatively large, which is not conducive to the robot's good sealing and storage, and reduces its own weight. If the docking distance is a little longer, it will easily shake
