Abstract

The invention discloses an indoor security robot capable of automatically returning to a charge base, comprising an intelligent charge base and a security robot, wherein two sides of the intelligent charge base are respectively provided with an infrared detection module; a car body head protection module, an electronic compass module and an infrared obstacle avoidance module are arranged on the security robot; and the intelligent charge base and the car body head protection module are mainly used for finishing the charge function of the security robot. The invention also discloses a method for automatically returning the security robot to the charge base. In the invention, charge butt joint is realized by adopting the electronic compass and the infrared detection obstacle avoidance sensor, and compared with the traditional scheme of randomly detecting an artificial mark along with advance, the invention greatly reduces the time of the robot for looking for the charge base, thereby guaranteeing the success rate of charging.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a security robot, in particular to an indoor security robot with the function of automatically returning to a charging base, and also relates to a method for the security robot to automatically return to a charging base. Background technique

[0002] An indoor security robot is a device that moves autonomously within a limited area such as a residence or office, and takes pictures of people entering and leaving the room in real time. Since the security robot moves autonomously in a limited area, it provides driving power through batteries. For the convenience of users, the security robot has an automatic charging function. When realizing the automatic patrol function, the security robot detects the remaining power in the battery in real time. If the remaining power in the battery is lower than the preset charging voltage reference value, the security robot automatically returns to the charging stand placed on the preset posit...

Examples

Embodiment

[0033] Embodiment: An indoor security robot with the function of automatically returning to the charging base, including two parts of the intelligent charging base 1 and the security robot.

[0034] See attached figure 1 , the intelligent charging stand 1 is mainly composed of a control module, a communication module, a positioning module, a charging circuit module 8 and a power module;

[0035] As the control center of the entire intelligent charging stand, the control module is responsible for controlling and coordinating the operation of other modules on the charging stand to complete the command requirements of the remote robot;

[0036] The communication module mainly performs information interaction with the remote security robot through the wireless transceiver unit. After the remote security robot sends the charging command to the smart charging stand 1, the smart charging stand 1 returns the position of the security robot detected by the infrared detection modules 7 o...
