Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of robotics, and more particularly to self-stabilizing omnidirectional mobile robots and mobile devices. [Background technology]

[0002] Currently, conventional wheeled robots generally use passive spring-dampening suspensions to improve the robot's ability to navigate rough terrain. However, this type of suspension severely limits its ability to maneuver on complex terrain and still causes fluctuations in the position and posture of the entire robot body, making it impossible to maintain a fixed posture. Furthermore, the steering mechanisms of traditional wheeled robots do not allow for flexible movement with all degrees of freedom, and they cannot move horizontally forward, backward, left, or right, nor can they steer on the spot. Traditional wheeled robots cannot jump, making them unable to jump over grooves or obstacles. They also cannot climb stairs.

[0003] The Chinese patent with application number 2017113762204 discloses a wheeled robot, which includes a chassis shell, the chassis shell is provided with a motor and a steering link connected to the motor, the chassis shell is further provided with a suspension module connected to the steering link for rotating the tires along a vertical axis, the center of the connecting line between the rotation centers of the tires overlaps with the center of the chassis shell, the wheeled robot achieves steering by driving the tires with the link, and the wheeled robot uses the suspension system to reduce interference with the robot body on uneven roads, but the posture of the robot body cannot be kept unchanged.

[0004] The information disclosed in this Background of the Invention section is merely used to understand the background of the concept of the present invention and may include information that does not constitute prior art. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] In order to address the above problem or one of the above problems, the present invention aims to provide a self-stabilizing omnidirectional mobile robot. A first power unit is provided at the hip joint of each leg, which controls the foot unit to swing up and down, and further moves the caster up and down. When the robot encounters an obstacle or uneven ground during movement, the up and down movement of the caster effectively keeps the robot's posture unchanged. A second power unit is provided at the knee joint of each leg, which drives the caster for 360° steering, avoiding the steering angle limitations of traditional steering mechanisms and allowing for more flexible movement. A third power unit is provided at the caster, which directly converts the output of the third power unit into kinetic energy for moving the caster forward, thereby improving power transmission efficiency. The first power unit at the hip joint, the second power unit at the knee joint, and the third power unit that drives the caster to rotate cooperate to fix the position and posture of the robot at any desired state, allowing it to adapt to different complex terrains such as stairs and grass.

[0007] To address the above problem or one of the above problems, the present invention aims to provide a moving device, in which a first power unit is provided on the robot body to control the foot unit to swing up and down, and further to move the casters up and down. Thus, when the robot encounters an obstacle or uneven ground during movement, the up and down movement of the casters will keep the posture of the robot body as stable as possible, thereby reducing the shaking of the robot body. The solution is simple, practical, and easy to produce and manufacture. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] In order to achieve one of the above objectives, the first technical solution of the present invention is as follows: A self-stabilizing omnidirectional mobile robot, comprising: a robot body, a power system, and casters, wherein the power system comprises a first power unit, a foot unit, a second power unit, a foot end, and a third power unit, which are connected in sequence; The first power unit has a rotating shaft and a fixed end.
