[0034] See also Figure 1 The distance measuring device 100 includes a mounting base 10, a transmitting mechanism 20 and a receiving mechanism 30. The transmitting mechanism 20 and the receiving mechanism 30 are both arranged on the mounting base 10. The transmitting mechanism 20 is used to output a light beam, and the light beam includes at least a first light beam A and a second light beam B, and the first light beam A and the second light beam B are emitted at different angles. The receiving mechanism 30 is used to receive the first light beam A and the second light beam B reflected by an obstacle. When the transmitting mechanism 20 alternately outputs the first light beam A and the second light beam B, and the first light beam A and the second light beam B are emitted at different angles, so that the first light beam A and the second light beam B are irradiated to the external environment or an external obstacle, the receiving mechanism 30 receives the first light beam A and the second light beam B reflected by the obstacle, thereby realizing distance measurement and increasing the perception range of the distance measuring device 100.

[0035] For the above-mentioned mounting base 10, please refer to Figure 2-Figure 3The mounting seat 10 is provided with a first mounting groove 10a and a second mounting groove 10b, the launching mechanism 20 is installed in the first mounting groove 10a, and the receiving mechanism 30 is installed in the second mounting groove 10b. In this embodiment, the first mounting groove 10a and the second mounting groove 10b are arranged relatively to the mounting seat 10. Optionally, the mounting seat 10 includes a seat body 11 and a connecting frame 12 connected to the seat body 11, the first mounting groove 10a and the second mounting groove 10b are arranged relatively to the seat body 11, and the connecting frame 12 is provided with an axial hole 10c, and the axial hole 10c passes through the connecting frame 12 along the second direction y. It should be noted that the first direction x is perpendicular to the second direction y.

[0036] In some embodiments, the launch mechanism 20 includes a launch component 21 and a reflection component 22. Figure 1 As shown. The transmitting component 21 is arranged in the first mounting groove 10a, and the reflecting component 22 is rotatably arranged on the mounting seat 10. The transmitting component 21 corresponds to the reflecting component 22. The transmitting component 21 is used to transmit a light beam to the reflecting component 22. The light beam includes at least a first light beam A and a second light beam B. The reflecting component 22 is used to reflect the first light beam A and / or the second light beam B. The rotation axis L of the reflecting component 22 is perpendicular to the first direction x, that is, the rotation axis L of the reflecting component 22 is perpendicular to the first light beam A emitted by the transmitting component 21. When the transmitting component 21 emits the first light beam A and the second light beam B to the reflecting component 22, the reflecting component 22 can reflect the first light beam A and / or the second light beam B at multiple angles, and as the reflecting component 22 rotates, the first light beam A and / or the second light beam B are emitted to multiple directions of the outside world, thereby realizing obstacle perception in multiple directions and multiple angles, so that the perception range of the ranging device 100 is larger.

[0037] For the above-mentioned transmitting assembly 21, please refer to Figure 1 The transmitting assembly 21 includes a transmitting element 211 and a deflecting element 212. Both the transmitting element 211 and the deflecting element 212 are mounted on the mounting base 10. The transmitting element 211 corresponds to the deflecting element 212. The transmitting element 211 is used to emit a light beam. Part of the light beam passes through the deflecting element 212 to form a second light beam B, and another part of the light beam is directly emitted to form a first light beam A. Specifically, the transmitting element 211 is received in the first mounting groove 10a. Along the direction of the light beam emitted by the transmitting element 211, the first mounting groove 10a extends with a deflecting groove 10d (such as Figure 2As shown in the figure, the deflection groove 10d is connected to the first mounting groove 10a, and the deflection member 212 is accommodated in the deflection groove 10d. It should be noted that the emitting member 211 has a light emitter (not shown in the figure), and its laser emitter can be a Vcse l (vertical cavity surface emitting laser) or an EEL (single point laser), and the light emitter can be constructed as a light emitter such as a laser diode, which can emit laser pulses used for measurement. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the light emitter can also use other devices capable of emitting light beams. The deflection member 212 has a deflection lens, and the light beam emitted by the emitting member 211 has a field of view angle, part of the light beam can be directly emitted to form a first light beam A, and the other part of the light beam is refracted downward through the above-mentioned reflection surface along the first direction x through the deflection lens to form a second light beam B.

[0038] In other embodiments, the emitting assembly 21 includes at least a first emitting element (not shown) and a second emitting element (not shown), both of which are mounted on the mounting base 10, the first emitting element is used to emit a first light beam A, and the second emitting element is used to emit a second light beam B. The first light beam A emitted by the first emitting element and the second light beam B emitted by the second emitting element are arranged at an angle, and the first emitting element and the second emitting element are alternately started, thereby alternately outputting the first light beam A and the second light beam B, and the first light beam A and the second light beam B are emitted at different angles. The first emitting element and the second emitting element may be different lasers, or different optical cores in the same laser.

[0039] In some embodiments, the launching assembly 21 further includes a locking member 213 , which is screwed to the mounting base 10 via bolts passing through the locking member 213 , so that the locking member 213 and the bottom wall of the first mounting groove 10 a jointly clamp the launching member 211 , thereby locking the launching member 211 .

[0040] For the above-mentioned reflective component 22, see Figure 1The reflective assembly 22 includes a reflective member 221, a first shielding member 222, and a second shielding member 223. The reflective member 221 is in a flat plate shape, and is rotatably disposed on the mounting seat 10. The reflective member 221 is provided with a first reflective surface 221a and a second reflective surface 221b. The first reflective surface 221a and the second reflective surface 221b are two surfaces of the reflective member 221 that are disposed opposite to each other. The first shielding member 222 is disposed on the first reflective surface 221a, and the second shielding member 223 is disposed on the second reflective surface 221b. When the reflector 221 rotates, when the first reflective surface 221a faces the emitting assembly 21, the first reflective surface 221a reflects the first light beam A, the first shielding member 222 corresponds to the second light beam B, and the first shielding member 222 is used to filter the second light beam B. When the second reflective surface 221b faces the emitting assembly 21, the second reflective surface 221b reflects the second light beam B, the second shielding member 223 corresponds to the first light beam A, and the second shielding member 223 is used to filter the first light beam A, so as to alternately output the first light beam A and the second light beam B, and the first light beam A and the second light beam B are emitted at different angles. In this embodiment, the first light beam A is emitted along the first direction x, and the second light beam B is deflected and refracted toward the bottom of the first light beam A. When the distance measuring device 100 moves along the horizontal direction for distance measurement, the first direction x is parallel to the horizontal plane, the first light beam A can be parallel to the horizontal plane, and an angle between the first light beam A and the horizontal plane is also allowed, and the angle can be 0° to 5°. The first light beam A can detect environmental features in the surrounding horizontal direction. As for the second light beam B, when observed along the second direction y, there is a first inclination angle α between the first light beam A and the second light beam B, and the first inclination angle α is an acute angle. Since the second light beam B is deflected downward along the vertical direction, the second light beam B can detect the environmental features below the ranging device 100, so that low obstacles in front can be detected to perform obstacle avoidance operations, thereby increasing the perception range of the ranging device 100. It should be noted that the first direction x and the second direction y together form the above-mentioned horizontal plane, the horizontal direction is any direction of the horizontal plane, and the third direction z is the vertical direction of this embodiment, and the first direction x, the second direction y and the third direction z are perpendicular to each other.

[0041] The first shielding member 222 and the second shielding member 223 are both made of light-absorbing material, diffuse reflection material or dielectric film.

[0042] In some embodiments, the reflector 221 is a polyhedron, and the number of the first reflective surface 221a, the second reflective surface 221b, the first shielding member 222, and the second shielding member 223 are all multiple, and the multiple first reflective surfaces 221a and the multiple second reflective surfaces 221b are alternately arranged along the circumferential direction of the rotation axis of the reflector 221, a first shielding member 222 is arranged on a first reflective surface 221a, and a second shielding member 223 is arranged on a second reflective surface 221b. When the transmitting component 21 transmits the first light beam A and the second light beam B to the reflector 221, as the reflector 221 rotates, the number of times the reflector 221 reflects the first light beam A and the second light beam B increases, and the reflector 221 can more quickly measure the distance between the distance measuring device 100 and the obstacle. In some other embodiments, there are multiple emitting elements 211, and the multiple emitting elements 211 are started alternately or cyclically, and a single emitting element 211 corresponds to a single reflecting surface of a polyhedron of the reflecting element 221, so the reflecting element 221 does not need to rotate, so as to quickly measure the distance between the distance measuring device 100 and the obstacle. It can be understood that a single first reflecting surface 221a and a single second reflecting surface 221b are alternately connected in sequence to form a plurality of reflecting surfaces. For example, the reflecting element 221 has five reflecting surfaces, and the five reflecting surfaces are connected end to end in sequence to form a polyhedron.

[0043] In some embodiments, a portion of the reflector 211 extends out after passing through the axial hole 10c, and the receiving mechanism 30 and the reflector 211, after the first light beam A and the second light beam B return through the object to be measured, can be reflected to the receiving mechanism 30 at different angles through the reflector 211, thereby realizing simultaneous measurement of two signals and improving measurement efficiency.

[0044] It is worth noting that the receiving mechanism 30 may adopt a CMOS / CCD image sensor, and the light beam emitted by the transmitting component 21 may be received by the receiving mechanism 30 after being returned by the object to be tested.

[0045] In some embodiments, the emitting mechanism 20 further includes a beam splitter (not shown), which corresponds to the emitting assembly 21, and is used to split the light beam into at least a first light beam A and a second light beam B, wherein the emission direction of the first light beam A is along the first direction x, and the second light beam B is deflected downward or upward along the horizontal plane. In this embodiment, the beam splitter is fixed to the mounting seat, and the connection method of the beam splitter is not limited, as long as the beam splitter can be stabilized, it is applicable, for example: the beam splitter is fixed to the emitting assembly 21 or the beam splitter is fixed to the reflecting assembly 22. It should be noted that the beam splitter emits the first light beam A along the second direction y or along the horizontal plane, and deflects the second light beam B downward or refracts upward along the horizontal plane.

[0046] The distance measuring device 100 further includes a driving assembly 40, which is mounted on the mounting seat 10, connected to the reflector 221, and used to drive the reflector 221 to rotate. Optionally, the driving assembly 40 includes a driving motor 401, a transmission belt 402, and a bearing 403, the connecting frame 12 is provided with a characteristic receiving groove 10e, the driving motor 401 is fixed in the receiving groove 10e, and the output shaft of the driving motor 401 extends out of the receiving groove 10e. The outer surface of the output shaft of the driving motor 401 is provided with a first annular groove, the shaft hole 10c of the connecting frame 12 is provided with a bearing 403, and the reflector 221 is fixed to the bearing 403. Part of the bearing 403 extends out of the shaft hole 10c, and the outer surface of the part extending out of the shaft hole 10c is provided with a second annular groove. The transmission belt 402 is sleeved on the first annular groove and the second annular groove. Driven by the driving motor 401 , the transmission belt 402 can be driven to drive the bearing 403 to rotate, so that the reflector 221 can be rotated.

[0047] In some embodiments, the distance measuring device 100 further includes a camera assembly 50, which can capture features of the surrounding environment, and a first field of view angle of the camera assembly 50 is complementary to a second field of view angle of the transmitting mechanism 20. Specifically, the first field of view angle of the camera assembly 50 is complementary to the second field of view angle of the transmitting mechanism 21 about a plane formed by the first direction x and the third direction z. For example, the transmitting mechanism 20 emits a first light beam A and a second light beam B, which can form a first field of view angle in front after being reflected by the reflector 221, so as to detect obstacles in front; while the camera assembly 50 faces backwards, and is used to capture environmental features in the rear, and through the front and back complementarity, the environmental feature information in the space is fully obtained.

[0048] The camera assembly 50 may be disposed toward the upper rear of the distance measuring device 100. When viewed along the second direction y, the optical axis of the camera assembly 50 has a second inclination angle β with the horizontal plane. The second inclination angle β is an acute angle. Figure 5 This is helpful for the camera assembly 50 to acquire the features of the ground environment, such as obstacles or walls on the ground.

[0049] The above-mentioned transmitting mechanism 20 can generate point cloud data of the environment within the first field of view angle, and the camera component 50 can capture image data of the environment within the second field of view angle. The ranging device 100 can determine the first mapping data based on the point cloud data, and determine the second mapping data based on the image data, and merge the first mapping data and the second mapping data to obtain complete spatial data. For example, when the ranging device 100 moves indoors, the transmitting mechanism 20 detects the environmental features in front. As the ranging device 100 continues to move and gets closer and closer to the obstacle, the feature points of the environment in front of it gradually decrease, thereby affecting its positioning and navigation; while the camera component 50 acquires the environmental features in the rear. In the process of the ranging device 100 moving continuously, the camera component 50 can see more rear information, which can make up for the shortcomings of the ranging device 100, thereby achieving front and back complementarity. After obtaining the feature information of the front laser point cloud and the rear visual extraction, the absolute position of the ranging device 100 in space can be determined.

[0050] like Figure 5-Figure 6 As shown, the first light beam A scans a straight line point cloud on the wall, which is used to detect the environmental features in front. The second light beam B deflects downward along the horizontal plane, and its scan on the ground is an arc. The right side of the distance measuring device 100 is a wall. When the reflector 211 rotates, the first light beam A and the second light beam B are reflected by the reflector 211 to form a field of view of ε=120° in front. The field of view ε can also scan the environmental features of the right wall. The distance measuring device 100 can judge the distance of the obstacle through the point cloud information of the second light beam B diagonally downward, so as to facilitate the planning of the obstacle avoidance path. In this way, a better obstacle avoidance effect can be achieved and the perception range of the distance measuring device 100 can be increased.

[0051] In the embodiment of the present application, a light beam is outputted by the emitting mechanism 20, and the light beam includes at least a first light beam A and a second light beam B, and the first light beam A and the second light beam B are emitted at different angles, so that the range of the light beam emitted by the ranging device 100 to the outside world becomes larger, thereby increasing the perception range of the ranging device 100 and realizing obstacle perception at multiple positions and multiple angles.

[0052] The utility model further provides a mobile robot embodiment, the mobile robot includes the distance measuring device 100 mentioned above, and the specific structure and function of the distance measuring device 100 can be referred to the above embodiment, which will not be described one by one here.
