Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of elderly care robot technology, specifically to a multi-specification adjustable home-based monitoring elderly care robot. Background Technology

[0002] As people age, their physical functions decline and they become less mobile, making it difficult to move them between wheelchairs, beds, and bathrooms. Manually moving elderly people is not only a burden for the handlers but can also cause unnecessary injury to the elderly person.

[0003] Currently, most elderly care robots rely on internal language systems for monitoring and interaction with seniors. However, the elderly who need these robots generally experience physical decline and mobility issues, often leading to difficulty walking due to leg problems while living alone. Furthermore, most existing elderly care robots cannot assist the elderly with their movements or adjust their assistance to suit different body types.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a multi-specification adjustable home-based monitoring robot for elderly care to address the problems mentioned above. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a multi-specification adjustable home-based monitoring robot for elderly care, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that most elderly care robots on the market currently rely on internal language systems for monitoring and interaction with the elderly during actual use. However, the elderly who need to use elderly care robots generally suffer from physical decline and mobility difficulties, and often experience difficulty walking due to leg problems while living alone. Furthermore, most existing elderly care robots cannot assist the elderly in their movements, nor can they be adjusted to assist the movements of elderly people of different body types.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a multi-specification adjustable home care monitoring robot, comprising a robot body and a monitoring device in the middle of the top surface of the robot body;

[0007] The bottom surface of the robot body is connected to the top surface of the support base, and a stabilizing mechanism is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the support base.

[0008] Also includes:

[0009] The base is equipped with rotatable casters on both the left and right sides of its bottom surface, and a leg support mechanism is slidably installed through the bottom front of the base.

[0010] The monitoring device has a display panel fixedly installed in the middle, and locking mechanisms are fixedly installed on both the left and right sides of the display panel.

[0011] The robot body has a rotating connection on both the left and right sides of its front, which is connected to the top of the support gripping plate. A lifting seat plate is also installed at the bottom of the front of the robot body.

[0012] The top surface of the monitoring device above the robot body is equipped with a monitoring probe, and the front of the monitoring device is connected to the inner end of the locking mechanism on the left and right sides by a sliding protective cover plate; and the inner end of the locking mechanism is connected to the outer end of the locking block by a limit spring.

[0013] Preferably, a monitoring probe is provided on the top surface of the monitoring device above the robot body, and the front of the monitoring device is connected to the inner end of the left and right locking mechanisms by a sliding protective cover plate; and the inner end of the locking mechanism is connected to the outer end of the locking block by a limiting spring; after the abutment blocks on the upper and lower sides inside the locking block retract inward, the protective cover plate is flipped to operate the display panel.

[0014] Preferably, both the upper and lower ends of the locking mechanism are slidably connected to the inner end of the release rod by limiting springs, and both the upper and lower sides of the inner end of the locking block of the locking mechanism are slidably connected to the inner end of the contact block by limiting springs, and the outer wall of the locking block is connected to the outer wall of the release rod by a pull rope.

[0015] Preferably, the outer walls of the upper and lower end contact blocks of the locking block inside the locking mechanism are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the upper and lower release rods by pull ropes, and the release rods and contact blocks are symmetrically distributed about the transverse central axis of the locking block. The maximum sliding length of the release rod is greater than the maximum sliding length of the contact block and the maximum sliding length of the locking block. Moreover, the locking mechanism is symmetrically distributed about the vertical central axis of the display panel.

[0016] Preferably, both ends of the bottom stabilizing mechanism of the bearing base are provided with support threaded rods that rotate vertically through bearings, and the bottom end of the support threaded rod is threaded through and connected to the top end of the support foot. The inside of the stabilizing mechanism is slidably provided through the left and right sides of the inside of the support foot through a fixedly connected limiting rod, and the support foot through which the bottom end of the support threaded rod is threaded rotates.

[0017] Preferably, the inner left and right sides of the bearing base are provided with receiving and receiving wheels through bearings, and the outer walls of the receiving and receiving wheels are fixedly connected to the left and right ends of the leg support mechanism by a pull rope. Furthermore, the inner left and right sides of the bearing base are fixedly provided with guide racks, and the left and right ends of the leg support mechanism are connected to the inner walls of the guide racks through guide gears connected by bearings.

[0018] Preferably, the left and right sides of the leg support mechanism are slidably connected to the outer ends of the footrest cross plate, and the left and right sides of the inner bottom surface of the leg support mechanism are provided with transmission rods that rotate laterally through bearings, and the outer ends of the transmission rods are connected to the front ends of the guide gears through bevel gears.

[0019] Preferably, the leg support mechanism has lifting threaded rods connected to both the left and right sides inside by bearings, and the bottom end of the lifting threaded rod is connected to the outer wall of the transmission rod by a bevel gear. The outer wall of the lifting threaded rod is threaded through and connected to the outer end of the footrest plate. This drives the leg support mechanism connected by the pull rope to rise, and the guide gears on the left and right sides of the leg support mechanism rotate under the drive of the guide rack.

[0020] Preferably, the robot body has a drive gear rotatably mounted inside a bearing, and the robot body is connected to the outer wall of the drive gear by a driven rack that is slidably connected inside the robot body. A receiving wheel is fixedly mounted in the middle of the drive gear, and the outer wall of the receiving wheel is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting seat plate by a pull rope.

[0021] Preferably, the outer wall of the driven rack inside the robot body is fixedly provided with meshing tooth blocks, and the driven rack is meshed with the top of the support gripping plate through the meshing tooth blocks fixedly connected to the outer wall. The maximum flipping length of the support gripping plate is less than the maximum lifting length of the driven rack, and the maximum flipping length of the lifting seat plate inside the robot body is less than the maximum rotation length of the drive gear. The rotation of the driven rack flips the support gripping plate through the meshing tooth blocks on the outer wall, making it easier for the elderly to grip.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: this multi-specification adjustable home care monitoring robot prevents tipping during use through a stabilizing mechanism on the bottom of the robot body, and assists elderly people with mobility difficulties in moving by supporting the seat plate and the leg support mechanism on the bottom. The specific details are as follows:

[0023] 1. The monitoring device on the top surface of the robot body is protected by the protective cover on the front. At the same time, the release rod inside the locking mechanism on the left and right sides of the display panel moves, thereby driving the locking block connected to the pull rope on the outer wall to move outward. Simultaneously, the abutment blocks on the upper and lower sides inside the locking block retract inward, and then the protective cover is flipped to operate the display panel.

[0024] 2. The stabilizing mechanism supporting the bottom surface of the base has threaded support rods on the left and right sides inside that rotate under the drive of the transmission belt. The support foot, through which the threaded support rods are threaded at the bottom, rotates. At the same time, a limiting rod that slides through the support foot limits the rotation of the support foot, so that the support foot supports the base and prevents the robot body from tipping over.

[0025] 3. The retractable wheels on the left and right sides inside the support base rotate, thereby driving the leg support mechanism connected by the pull rope to rise. The guide gears on the left and right sides of the leg support mechanism rotate under the drive of the guide rack. At the same time, the front end of the guide gear drives the transmission rod to rotate through the bevel gear. Meanwhile, the outer wall of the transmission rod drives the lifting threaded rod to rotate through the bevel gear. The lifting threaded rod drives the footrest horizontal plates on the left and right sides of the leg support mechanism to rise and fall, thereby lifting the elderly person's legs and feet.

[0026] 4. The rotation of the drive gear inside the robot body, and the rotation of the pull wheel in the middle of the drive gear, flips the support seat plate connected by the pull rope. The support seat plate makes it easier for the elderly to sit. At the same time, the rotation of the drive gear drives the driven rack to move. The rotation of the driven rack flips the support gripping plate through the meshing teeth on the outer wall, making it easier for the elderly to hold. Attached Figure Description

[0036] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0037] Please see Figure 1-8 The present invention provides a technical solution: a multi-specification adjustable home care monitoring robot, including a robot body 1 and a monitoring device 2 in the middle of the top surface of the robot body 1;

[0038] The bottom surface of the robot body 1 is connected to the top surface of the support base 3, and a stabilizing mechanism 4 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the support base 3; it also includes:

[0039] The support base 3 has rotatable casters 5 on both the left and right sides of its bottom surface, and a leg support mechanism 6 is slidably installed through the lower front of the support base 3.

[0040] The monitoring device 2 has a display panel 7 fixedly installed in the middle, and locking mechanisms 8 are fixedly installed on both the left and right sides of the display panel 7; the robot body 1 has a support gripping plate 9 rotatably connected to the top of the front left and right sides, and a lifting seat plate 10 is installed through the bottom of the front of the robot body 1.

[0041] A monitoring probe 11 is provided on the top surface of the monitoring device 2 above the robot body 1, and the front of the monitoring device 2 is connected to the inner end of the left and right locking mechanisms 8 by a sliding protective cover 29; and the inner end of the locking mechanism 8 is connected to the outer end of the locking block 13 by a limiting spring 12.

[0042] Both ends of the locking mechanism 8 are slidably connected to the inner end of the release rod 14 by limiting springs 12, and both the upper and lower sides of the inner end of the locking block 13 of the inner end of the locking mechanism 8 are slidably connected to the inner end of the contact block 15 by limiting springs 12, and the outer wall of the locking block 13 is connected to the outer wall of the release rod 14 by a pull rope 16.

[0043] like Figure 1 The display panel 7 is protected by the protective cover 29 on the front. At the same time, the release rod 14 inside the locking mechanism 8 on the left and right sides of the display panel 7 moves, thereby driving the locking block 13 connected to the pull rope 16 on the outer wall to move outward. At the same time, the abutment blocks 15 on the upper and lower sides inside the locking block 13 retract inward. Then, the protective cover 29 is flipped to operate the display panel 7.

[0044] The outer walls of the upper and lower end contact blocks 15 of the locking block 13 inside the locking mechanism 8 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the upper and lower release rods 14 by pull ropes 16. The release rods 14 and the contact blocks 15 are symmetrically distributed about the horizontal central axis of the locking block 13. The maximum sliding length of the release rod 14 is greater than the maximum sliding length of the contact blocks 15 and the maximum sliding length of the locking block 13. The locking mechanism 8 is symmetrically distributed about the vertical central axis of the display panel 7.

[0045] Both ends of the bottom stabilizing mechanism 4 of the support base 3 are vertically rotatably provided with support threaded rods 17 via bearings, and the bottom end of the support threaded rod 17 is threaded through and connected to the top end of the support foot 18. The inside of the stabilizing mechanism 4 is slidably provided inside the left and right sides of the support foot 18 via a fixedly connected limiting rod 19.

[0046] like Figure 6 As shown, the support threaded rod 17 rotates under the drive of the transmission belt, and the support foot 18 through which the bottom thread of the support threaded rod 17 passes rotates. At the same time, the limiting rod 19, which is slidably installed inside the support foot 18, limits the rotation of the support foot 18, so that the support foot 18 supports the load base 3 and prevents the robot body 1 from tipping over.

[0047] The support base 3 has a retractable wheel 20 rotatably mounted on both the left and right sides inside via bearings. The outer wall of the retractable wheel 20 is fixedly connected to the left and right ends of the leg support mechanism 6 by a pull rope 16. The support base 3 has a guide rack 21 fixedly mounted on both the left and right sides inside. The leg support mechanism 6 has a guide gear 22 meshing with the inner wall of the guide rack 21 via a bearing.

[0048] Both sides of the leg support mechanism 6 are slidably connected to the outer ends of the footrest plate 23. Both sides of the inner bottom surface of the leg support mechanism 6 are provided with transmission rods 24 that rotate laterally through bearings. The outer ends of the transmission rods 24 are connected to the front end of the guide gear 22 through bevel gears.

[0049] The left and right sides of the leg support mechanism 6 are connected to lifting threaded rods 25 by bearings. The bottom end of the lifting threaded rod 25 is connected to the outer wall of the transmission rod 24 by bevel gear. The outer wall of the lifting threaded rod 25 is threaded through and connected to the outer end of the foot support plate 23.

[0050] like Figure 7-8As shown, the guide gears 22 on the left and right sides of the leg support mechanism 6 rotate under the drive of the guide rack 21. At the same time, the front end of the guide gear 22 drives the transmission rod 24 to rotate through the bevel gear. Meanwhile, the outer wall of the transmission rod 24 drives the lifting threaded rod 25 to rotate through the bevel gear. The lifting threaded rod 25 drives the foot support horizontal plate 23 on the left and right sides of the leg support mechanism 6 to rise and fall, thereby lifting the elderly person's legs and feet.

[0051] Inside the robot body 1, a drive gear 26 is rotatably mounted via a bearing. Inside the robot body 1, a driven rack 27 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the drive gear 26. A receiving wheel 20 is fixedly mounted in the middle of the drive gear 26. The outer wall of the receiving wheel 20 is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting seat plate 10 via a pull rope 16.

[0052] The outer wall of the driven rack 27 inside the robot body 1 is fixedly provided with a meshing tooth block 28, and the driven rack 27 is meshed with the top of the support gripping plate 9 through the meshing tooth block 28 fixedly connected to the outer wall. The maximum flipping length of the support gripping plate 9 is less than the maximum lifting length of the driven rack 27, and the maximum flipping length of the lifting seat plate 10 inside the robot body 1 is less than the maximum rotation length of the drive gear 26.

[0053] like Figure 5 As shown, the rotating wheel 20 in the middle of the drive gear 26 rotates, causing the support seat 10 connected to the pull rope 16 to flip over. The support seat 10 makes it easier for the elderly to sit. At the same time, the rotation of the drive gear 26 drives the driven rack 27 to move. The rotation of the driven rack 27 flips the support grip plate 9 through the meshing tooth block 28 on the outer wall, making it easier for the elderly to hold.

[0054] Working principle: Before using this multi-adjustable home-based monitoring robot for elderly care, it is necessary to check the overall condition of the device to ensure it can function normally. Figure 1 - Figure 8 As shown, the robot body 1 is first stabilized and protected by the stabilizing mechanism 4 on the bottom surface of the base 3 during use to prevent it from tipping over. At the same time, the flipping of the lifting seat plate 10 will cause the support gripping plate 9, which is engaged with the tooth block 28 on the outer wall of the driven rack 27, to flip over, making it easier for the elderly to sit on.

[0055] The bottom surface of the robot body 1 supports the base 3 with the retractable wheels 20, which drive the leg support mechanism 6 to rise and fall. At the same time, during the rising and falling process, the guide gear 22 drives the lifting threaded rod 25 and the threaded foot support plate 23 to support the elderly person's legs and feet.
