Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, the robot cannot interact with the elevator, and the robot cannot take the elevator up and down to serve the users on the target floor. As a result, each floor can only be equipped with one robot to serve the users on this floor, and the cost is relatively high.
Existing methods for interaction between robots and elevators. In the process of interaction between robots and elevators, for elevators that have been equipped with radio frequency signal receiving units in the elevators, the line transformation is complicated and the cost is high; the traditional floor information collection unit uses the form judgment of floor labels The location of the floor where the elevator is located, including the use of wireless carrier communication transmitters, laser range finders or cameras, resulting in high costs

Embodiment 1

[0041] refer to figure 1 As shown, this embodiment is a robot-elevator interactive system, which includes a robot control unit installed on the robot, an elevator external control unit, and an elevator inherent control system; wherein the robot control unit is electrically connected to the walking drive module and the robot communication module; The elevator external control unit is connected to the elevator communication module, radio frequency signal transmitting unit, floor information acquisition unit, and elevator door state acquisition device; the elevator itself is equipped with a radio frequency signal receiving unit, which is electrically connected to the elevator's inherent control system to realize the user's card swiping Elevator ride function; the robot control unit establishes a communication connection with the elevator external communication module through the robot communication module, and finally realizes the communication connection with the elevator externa...

Embodiment approach

[0048] refer to figure 2 As shown, the difference between it and the above-mentioned Embodiment 1 is that the interactive system between the robot and the elevator also includes an analog elevator radio frequency signal receiving unit communication node unit, which is connected in parallel to the electronic signal circuit connected between the radio frequency signal receiving unit and the inherent control system of the elevator above, it is used to simulate the communication between the radio frequency signal receiving unit and the inherent control system of the elevator. The robot communication module is connected to the communication node unit of the analog elevator radio frequency signal receiving unit. The analog elevator radio frequency signal receiving unit communication node unit receives and responds to the signal and calls the elevator in place through the elevator inherent control system. The elevator external control unit sends the floor information to the elevator ...

Embodiment 3

[0051] In this embodiment, the elevator itself is not equipped with a radio frequency signal receiving unit. The elevator external control unit is connected to the floor buttons installed in the elevator. The inherent control system of the elevator has a plurality of floor interfaces corresponding to the number of floors. The control cables are respectively connected to a plurality of corresponding floor buttons on the floor buttons. The robot sends its own floor information to the elevator external control unit. The elevator external control unit simulates the manual pressing of the corresponding floor button by controlling the elevator button to call the elevator to the floor where the robot is. After the robot enters the elevator, it controls the elevator to go to the target floor in the same way as above. Complete the ladder action. Further, the elevator external control unit can be directly connected to the radio frequency signal receiving unit, so that while realizing th...

Abstract

The invention discloses a robot. The robot comprises a traveling driving module, a robot control unit and a robot communication module, wherein the robot control unit is electrically connected with the traveling driving module and the robot communication module correspondingly, and the communication module is connected with a radio-frequency signal receiving unit of an elevator and transmits the elevator taking information to an elevator inherent control system through the radio-frequency signal receiving unit. According to the robot and an elevator interaction system and method, the robot cantake the elevator, and meanwhile, the cost is saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of robot-elevator interaction, and in particular relates to a robot-elevator interaction system and method. Background technique [0002] A robot is a machine device that performs work automatically. It can accept human command, run pre-programmed programs, and act according to principles formulated with artificial intelligence technology. Its task is to assist or replace human work, such as production, construction, or dangerous work. At present, robots are developing rapidly and have been applied in many industries. For example, in service industries such as restaurants, hotels, hotels, etc., service robots can be used for delivery, ordering and other operations. [0003] At present, the robot cannot interact with the elevator, and the robot cannot take the elevator up and down to serve the users on the target floor. As a result, each floor can only be equipped with one robot to serve the users on this f...
