The right-angle clamp 47 is used to clamp the wall of the tea cup when in the closed position to prevent splashing. The root of the fork-shaped cup holder 49 is fixed on the output shaft of the cup holder servo motor 45. The cup holder servo motor 45 is installed behind the T-shaped frame 48 to lift the tea cup 22 upward.

[0040] like Figure 6 As shown, the rotating tea table is composed of a tea table servo motor 56, a driving synchronous pulley 53, a driving shaft 52, a tea table support 6, a double-ring synchronous pulley 54, a ring synchronous belt 55, a horizontal synchronous pulley 58, a horizontal shaft 57, a horizontal tea table plate 23, a rounded rectangular plate 60, a driven shaft 59, and a tea cup 22. The tea table servo motor 56 and the tea table support 6 are fixed to the frame 1. Figure 6 The visible circular surface of the double-ring synchronous pulley 54 in a is fixed to the tea table support 6 and cannot rotate. The driving shaft 52 is fixed to the center of the rounded rectangular plate 60, and the double-ring synchronous pulley 54 forms a planetary gear combination structure with the horizontal synchronous pulley 58 through the annular synchronous belt 55. The horizontal tea table plate 23 is fixed on the horizontal shaft 57, and the tea cup 22 is placed in the U-shaped groove of the horizontal tea table plate 23.

[0041] like Figure 7 As shown in the figure, the control center consists of a central processor, an IoT module, voice interaction hardware, and a lower computer. The central processor is used to receive, process, and send signals from various parts. The IoT module communicates with the server in real time to receive and send instructions. The voice interaction hardware consists of a four-array microphone and a speaker to receive voice and make announcements. The lower computer receives instructions from the central processor to control the operation of relays, motors, and servo motors.

[0042] The working principle of the present invention is as follows:

[0043] This robot can be controlled through the Internet of Things. When the robot control center, cloud server, and mobile terminal are matched, the user clicks the start button through the application software in the mobile terminal to pass the start command to the robot control center through the server. The control center executes the corresponding program and the robot starts.

[0044] 1. Take tea leaves: After starting, the robot arm 12 moves the clamp 40 to the tea box 13, clamps a unit amount of tea leaves downward, moves the tea leaves to the top of the teapot 15 (when the robot arm 12 takes tea leaves, the pot cover servo 31 drives the pot cover 14 to flip open), releases the tea leaves, repeats the action until a standard amount of tea leaves is clamped (the amount of tea leaves can be changed by adjusting the number of clamping times), and the robot arm 12 quickly returns to the initial position.

[0045] 2. Washing tea (brewing tea): the reversing servo 25 rotates to align the nozzle of the nozzle 16 with the position of the teapot, and the control center turns on the power relay of the water pump 24, and the hot water in the electric heating kettle 62 (the water temperature is set to the default value according to the tea type selected by the mobile application software, and the heating is completed during the initialization before startup) is pumped into the teapot 15 through the water pipe 17. The amount of water is determined by the capacity of the teapot 15 and meets the corresponding proportion of the standard amount of tea leaves. The pumping time is calculated according to the flow rate of the water pump 24. The pot lid 14 is turned over and closed, and the flap servo 28 turns the teapot 15 over through the crank rocker mechanism to guide the first brewed tea into the fairness cup 20.

[0046] 3. Take the teacup: After washing the tea, the multi-freedom tea clip 7 is driven by the transverse movement device to the horizontal tea table board 23 at the bottom of the rotating tea table (the two horizontal tea table boards 23 are set in the upper and lower positions during initialization), so that the fork-shaped cup holder 49 extends into the gap between the three teacups 22 below and the horizontal tea table board 23, and at the same time drives the tea clip servo 46 and the cup holder servo motor 45, so that the right-angle clamp 47 clamps the edge of the teacup 22, and the fork-shaped cup holder 49 holds the lower cup side of the teacup 22, and lifts the three teacups 22 to the position just off the horizontal tea table board 23, so that the cups are fixed on the T-shaped frame 48. Driven by the transverse movement device, the multi-freedom tea clip 7 moves the teacup 22 to the inside of the robot, and the rotating servo motor 51 drives the T-shaped frame 48 to rotate 180°, so that the cup 22 is placed inward, and the transverse movement device is fine-tuned to stop the cup 22 at the appropriate position.

[0047] 4. Pouring tea: The robot arm 12 moves to the justice cup 20, and slowly moves the clamp 40 to a position horizontal to the wedge block 42, and makes the protrusion 41 and the through hole on the wedge block 42 in a matching state. The steering gear 37 rotates to tighten the clamp 40, and the protrusion 41 extends into the through hole to achieve limited matching. The robot arm 12 moves to continuously pour the first brewed tea in the justice cup 20 into the three tea cups 22 on the T-shaped frame 48. After pouring the tea, the robot arm 12 puts the justice cup 20 back to its original position.

[0048] 5. Washing teacups: The lateral movement device fine-tunes the position of the multi-degree-of-freedom tea clip 7 so that the teacup 22 is located slightly behind the robot. The flip servo motor 43 slowly rotates in the direction of pouring the tea in the teacup 22, and the rotating servo motor 51 shakes back and forth at a faster frequency, so that the tea in the teacup 22 can fully wash the inner wall, and the tea hanging on the outer wall when pouring water will also fully wash the outer wall due to shaking. The poured water flows into the water tank 61, and after the cup washing is completed, the multi-degree-of-freedom tea clip 7 returns to the position before pouring the tea.

[0049] 6. Serving tea: Repeat the above-mentioned "washing tea (brewing tea)" action, but after hot water is poured in, the teapot 15 should be turned over after the brewing time is reserved according to the tea leaves, and the above-mentioned "pouring tea water" action is repeated to introduce the second brewing tea water into the teacup 22. Through the movement of the lateral movement device and the rotation servo motor 51, the teacup 22 moves back to the position where the teacup 22 just leaves the horizontal tea table 23 during the "taking teacup" action, and the right-angle clamp 47 and the fork-shaped cup holder 49 are released, and the teacup 22 is placed in the U-shaped groove of the horizontal tea table 23. The tea table servo motor 56 rotates 180°, and the planetary gear structure composed of the double-ring synchronous pulley 54, the annular synchronous belt 55, and the horizontal synchronous pulley 58 ensures that the horizontal tea table 23 can revolve horizontally around the driving shaft 52, and the positions of the upper and lower groups of teacups 22 are exchanged, and the unwashed teacup 22 moves to the bottom, and the teacup 22 that has just brewed tea moves to the top. The user can pick up the teacup to drink, and the tea brewing is completed.

[0050] 7. Refill: After brewing tea, you can select the refill function through the mobile client. The action sequence is similar to the above, but the "take tea leaves" and "wash tea" actions are not performed. When refilling, adjust the nozzle 16 toward the fair cup 20 through the reversing servo 25, and directly inject hot water. The amount of water is the same as the amount of water in the "wash tea (brew tea)" action. Then perform the "take tea cup", "pour tea water", "wash tea cup", and "serve tea" actions again, and the refill is completed.

[0051] 8. Cleaning: When the tea is colorless tea and the user needs to clean the tea leaves or finish brewing tea, the user selects the cleaning function through the mobile client, and the flap servo 28 drives the teapot 15 to flip to an appropriate inclination angle, and the pot cover servo 31 drives the pot cover 14 to flip and open, and the reversing servo 25 continuously adjusts the nozzle position of the nozzle 16 to change periodically within the range that the water flow can be injected into the teapot 15. At the same time, the water pump 24 pumps water to flush the tea residue in the teapot 15 into the fairness cup 20. The water injection amount is consistent with the water amount of the "tea washing (tea brewing)" action. The robotic arm 12 clamps the fairness cup 20 and pours water into the water tank 61. The operation is repeated 2 to 3 times, and the operation is restored after completion, and the cleaning is completed.

[0052] The robot can also be controlled through the offline wake-up function of human-computer interaction, and perform the above-mentioned tea brewing, refilling and cleaning functions through voice recognition. By connecting to the cloud database, human-computer intelligent voice interaction can be carried out to realize functions such as music playback, weather forecast, and tea culture introduction.
