DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0057] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0058] In the present invention, the descriptions involving "first", "second", "upper", "lower", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or suggesting their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first", "second", "upper", "lower" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the ability of ordinary technicians in the field to implement. When the technical solutions between the embodiments can be combined, they are all within the protection scope required by the present invention.

[0059] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with embodiments.

[0060] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a detection system includes: a robot 30 and a detection tool, the robot 30 is provided with a mechanical arm 32 connected to a robot body 31, and a processing device (not shown) is provided inside the robot 30. A detection tool 10 is connected to the mechanical arm 32, and the detection tool 10 includes: a detection head 11 and a locking device. The detection head 11 is provided with a plurality of terminals 114 and a data output port 112, and the data output port 112 is connected to the processing device. The locking device 12 is connected to the detection head 11.

[0061] The detection tool 10 connected by the mechanical arm 32 of the robot 30 detects the signal of the detected switching device. Specifically, the robot 30 carries the detection tool 10 and moves to the vicinity of the detected switching device, and controls the mechanical arm 32 through the processing device to drive the detection tool 10, and moves the detection head 11 close to the detected switching device, so that the terminal 114 of the detection head 11 is connected with the detected terminal of the detected switching device. When the detection head 11 is connected to the detected device, the detection head 11 and the detected device are locked by the locking device to prevent the detection head 11 from being separated from the detected device during the detection process, resulting in poor contact between the terminal 114 of the detection head 11 and the terminal of the detected device. The signal of the detected device is transmitted to the data output port 112 of the detection head through the detection head 11 and the detected switching device, and then transmitted to the processing device through the cable. The received signal is analyzed in the processing device to determine whether there is a problem with the signal transmission, and the position of the terminal of the signal with the problem is determined.

[0062] In this embodiment, in order to meet the visual habits of users and to connect more devices and realize more functions, a robotic arm 32 is connected to each side of the robot body 31.

[0063] The detection system of this embodiment realizes automatic detection of the detected adapter device, ensures the correct connection between the terminal 114 of the detection head 11 and the terminal of the detected adapter device, avoids signal transmission errors caused by terminal connection problems, and reduces the error rate of detection. The detection system of this embodiment replaces manual detection, reduces the labor intensity of detection personnel, and improves detection efficiency.

[0064] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the robot 30 further includes: a navigation device 33, through which the position information of the robot 30 is detected. The position information may be coordinate information of the movement of the robot 30. The processing device compares the received coordinate information transmitted by the navigation device 33 with the pre-stored map, determines the offset of the position of the robot 30, and adjusts the movement trajectory of the robot 30 accordingly.

[0065] The robot 30 detects its position information during the movement, and the position information may be the coordinate information of the movement of the robot 30. The processing device compares the coordinate information received from the navigation device 33 with the pre-stored map, determines the offset of the position of the robot 30, and adjusts the movement trajectory of the robot 30 accordingly.

[0066] Furthermore, the robot 30 also includes: a first image acquisition device 34, which is used to acquire environmental image information around the robot 30, and transmit the environmental image information to the processing device.

[0067] In combination with the position information detected by the navigation device 33, the first image acquisition device 34 collects environmental information around the position, such as the height, number, placement of surrounding cabinets, other arranged items, changes in the height of the ground, the height of obstacles above, etc., and compares it with the image information of the position pre-stored in the processing device. If the comparison result is inconsistent, the robot 30 stops moving, or even returns to its original position, and outputs an error message.

[0068] Further, such as Figure 5 As shown, the robot 30 further includes: a control device 35, which is disposed on the robot body 31 and connected to the processing device.

[0069] In this embodiment, for the convenience of operation, the control device 35 is arranged on the back of the robot body 31. At the same time, a display device 36 can also be arranged on the back of the robot body 31. The control device 35 can be a keyboard, a mouse, or a combination of the two. The control instructions are input to the processing device through the control device 35, and the operation status and results are output through the display device 36. As an embodiment, the display device 36 can be a touch screen.

[0070] Furthermore, the locking device 12 includes: a locking spindle 121 and an unlocking device 122, which penetrates the detection head 11, and the locking spindle 11 includes a locking end and a connecting end, and the locking end passes through one end of the detection head 11 provided with a plurality of the terminals. The unlocking device 122 is connected to the connecting end of the locking spindle 121.

[0071] The detection head 11 is connected to the adapter device to be detected, and is locked with the adapter device to be detected through the locking end of the locking spindle 121, so that the terminal 111 of the detection head 10 is connected to the terminal of the adapter device to be detected, and the signal emitted by the adapter device to be detected is transmitted to the data output port 112. The received data is analyzed by the processing device to determine whether there is a fault in the terminal of the adapter device to be detected.

[0072] like Figure 6 As shown, after the detection head 11 is connected to the detected adapter device, there is a gap, which may cause the terminal 111 of the detection head 11 and the terminal of the detected adapter device to fail to connect or to have a virtual connection. As an embodiment, the locking device 12 includes a screwing device 1222. After the locking spindle 121 locks the detected adapter device, the locking spindle 121 is screwed to move away from the detected adapter device, thereby shortening the distance between the detection head 11 and the detected adapter device, and further eliminating the gap between the detection head 11 and the detected adapter device, so as to achieve a true connection between the terminal 111 of the detection head 11 and the terminal of the detected adapter device. During dismantling, the locking spindle 121 is rotated in the opposite direction by the screwing device 1222 to increase the distance between the detection head 11 and the detected adapter device. When the locking spindle 121 and the detected adapter device reach the critical state of unlocking and locking, the locking spindle 11 is pulled out of the detected adapter device by the pulling device 1221 to achieve unlocking.

[0073] Further, such as Figure 2 As shown, the detection tool 10 further includes: a second image acquisition device 13 for acquiring terminal image information of the terminal 111 of the detection head 11 .

[0074] When connecting the detection head 11 and the adapter device to be detected, the second image acquisition device 13 collects image information of the alignment between the terminal 111 of the detection head 11 and the terminal of the adapter device to be detected, and the processing device adjusts the position of the detection head 11 at any time through the mechanical arm 32 based on the image information.

[0075] Further, such as Figure 1 As shown, the detection tool 10 further includes: an illumination device 20 , which is connected to the mechanical arm 32 and emits a light beam toward the detection head 11 .

[0076] By providing the lighting device 20, the second image acquisition device 13 can obtain sufficient light source when acquiring image information, thereby ensuring the acquisition of clear image information.

[0077] Further, such as Figure 2 As shown, at least three positioning pins 113 are provided at one end of the detection head 11 where the terminal 111 is provided.

[0078] Furthermore, at least three of the positioning pins 113 have at least two shapes.

[0079] In order to more accurately connect the terminal 111 of the detection head 11 and the terminal of the adapter device being detected, at least three positioning pins 113 are set on the end face of the terminal 111 of the detection head 11. Preferably, the at least three positioning pins 113 have at least two shapes to ensure the correct installation direction of the detection head 11.
