Embodiment Construction

[0018] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

[0019] see Figure 1~2 , in an embodiment of the present invention, an automatic charging method for a robot uses a power monitoring unit to monitor the power of the robot. When the power is less than a certain threshold, the automatic charging process starts; the wireless signal transceiver unit uses the wireless signal Turn on the infrared guidance signal of the charging pile, or when the distance between the robot and the charging pile is less than 1 meter ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a robot automatic charging system and a charging method thereof. The system comprises a power monitoring unit, an infrared signal receiving unit, an infrared distance measuring unit, a wireless signal transceiver unit, a visual recognition unit, a robot control unit, and a motion system unit, wherein the robot control unit is connected with the power monitoring unit, the infrared signal receiving unit, the infrared distance measuring unit, the wireless signal transceiver unit, the visual recognition unit and the motion system unit. According to the invention, an infrared signal tracking method and an image identification method are combined together. By fusing originally single methods, problems occurring in tracking using only one method are solved. Thus, a robot can accurately and stably find a charging pile for charging without environmental interference.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a robot, in particular to a robot automatic charging system and a charging method thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, the development of robots is very rapid, and their functions are also increasing day by day. However, robots often encounter the problem of insufficient battery power when they are working. This is because the robot needs human hands to operate to help the robot continue its battery life. This makes the robot receive power when performing work. limit. In order to reduce the problem of manual battery life for robots, research on autonomous charging of robots has become a major direction for the development of robots. For the autonomous charging of robots, there are roughly three existing solutions at home and abroad: infrared signal tracking, radio frequency wireless tracking, and image recognition methods. [0003] For the autonomous charging of robots, there are roughly three existing solutions...
