[0085] In the connection module 100 provided by the present invention, the connection module 100 includes a connection component and a driving module 40, the connection component includes a shell 10, a partition 14, a connection part 20 and a plurality of electrical components 30, the shell 10 has a first opening 11, a second opening 12 and a third opening 13, the first opening 11 and the second opening 12 are arranged opposite to each other along a first direction; the partition 14 is arranged in the shell 10 to divide the internal cavity of the shell 10 into a first cavity 15 and a second cavity 16 distributed along a second direction, and the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction; the first opening 11 and the second opening 12 are both connected to the first cavity 15, and the third opening 13 is connected to the second cavity 16; the connection part 20 is arranged at the first opening 11; the plurality of electrical components 30 are all arranged in the first cavity 15, and the connection part 20 is connected to one of the electrical components 30; the driving module 40 is arranged at the third opening 13.

[0086] The connection module 100 of the present application is divided into a first cavity 15 and a second cavity 16 by dividing the internal cavity of the housing 10, and arranging multiple electrical components 30 in the first cavity 15, and installing the driving module 40 at the third opening 13 connected to the second cavity 16, so as to install the driving module 40 separately from the multiple electrical components 30, thereby avoiding or reducing the heat generated by the operation of the electrical components 30 to be transferred to the driving module 40, that is, avoiding or reducing the heat generated by the operation of the electrical components 30 to be transferred to the space where the driving module 40 is located, avoiding or reducing the influence of the heat generated by the operation of the electrical components 30 on the driving module 40; and the driving module 40 is arranged at the third opening 13, so that the driving module 40 is easier to dissipate heat. It can be seen that the connection module 100 of the present application can effectively avoid the driving module 40 being in a space environment with a higher temperature, and solves the problem of the high temperature in the space where the driving module of the robot module in the prior art is located.

[0087] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein, for example. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any of their variations are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, for example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0088] For ease of description, spatially relative terms such as "above", "above", "on the upper surface of", "above", etc. may be used here to describe the spatial positional relationship between a device or feature and other devices or features as shown in the figure. It should be understood that spatially relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation described in the figure. For example, if the device in the accompanying drawings is inverted, the device described as "above other devices or structures" or "above other devices or structures" will be positioned as "below other devices or structures" or "below other devices or structures". Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below". The device can also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially relative descriptions used here are interpreted accordingly.

[0089] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
