[0039] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0040] In order to solve the tipping problem of a nursing robot, the present invention discloses an anti-tipping device, an anti-tipping nursing robot, and an anti-tipping detection system and method.

[0041] The present invention discloses an anti-dumping device. Figure 1-Figure 2 The anti-dumping device includes a mounting chassis 1, a rotating counterweight unit 2 and a rotating support unit 3, wherein the rotating counterweight unit 2 is rotatably mounted on the mounting chassis 1, and a plurality of rotating support units 3 are rotatably mounted on both sides of the mounting chassis 1 extending along the length direction. In an embodiment of the present invention, two rotating support units 3 are respectively mounted on both sides of the mounting chassis 1 extending along the length direction. When dumping is about to occur, the rotating counterweight unit turns to a direction opposite to the tilting direction, and the support unit spreads the support legs to provide additional supporting force for it, thereby effectively preventing the nursing robot from dumping during the performance of nursing tasks and ensuring the safety of the person being cared for and the nursing robot.

[0042] As an embodiment of the present invention, the structure of the rotating counterweight unit 2 is shown in FIG. Figure 3 Specifically, the rotating counterweight unit 2 includes a first drive motor 21, a rotating rod 22, a rotating counterweight block 23 and a turntable guide rail 24. The rotating rod 22 is connected to the output shaft of the first drive motor 21, and the end of the rotating rod 22 is fixedly connected to the rotating counterweight block 23. The rotating counterweight block 23 rotates along the turntable guide rail 24. The first drive motor 21 drives the rotating rod 22 to rotate, and the rotation of the rotating rod 22 drives the rotating counterweight block 23 fixedly connected thereto to rotate along the turntable guide rail 24. The turntable guide rail 24 can provide both guidance and support for the rotating counterweight block 23. When the tilt direction of the nursing robot is determined, the rotating counterweight block 23 rotates quickly to the direction opposite to the tilt direction of the nursing robot, providing the nursing robot with reverse counterweight and then straightening the nursing robot. After the nursing robot is straightened, the rotating counterweight block device 23 returns to its initial position.

[0043] As an embodiment of the present invention, the structure of the rotation support unit 3 is shown in FIG. Figure 4 Specifically, the rotation support unit 3 includes a motor mounting seat 31, a second drive motor 32, a driving wheel 33, a driven wheel 34, a support device 35 and a support leg 36. The motor mounting seat 31 is fixedly connected to the mounting chassis 1, the second drive motor 32 is fixedly installed on the motor mounting seat 31, and the output shaft of the second drive motor 32 is connected to the driving wheel 33, and the driving wheel 33 is connected to the driven wheel 34 through a synchronous belt 37. The specific structure of the support device 35 is shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6, including a support mounting seat 351, the support mounting seat 351 is fixed on the mounting chassis 1, and support bearings 352 are fixed on the two opposite end surfaces of the support mounting seat 351. In order to prevent the two opposite support bearings 352 from moving up and down, a bearing fixing member 354 is fixed on the support mounting seat 351 to fix the two support bearings 352. The two support bearings 352 are connected through a support shaft 353. The driven wheel 34 is fixedly mounted on the support shaft 353, and the support leg 36 is fixedly connected to the support shaft 353. The second drive motor 32 rotates to drive the driving wheel 33 installed on its output shaft to rotate. The driving wheel 33 rotates to drive the driven wheel 34 connected to it through a synchronous belt 37 to rotate. The rotation of the driven wheel 34 drives the two The support shaft 353 between the support bearings 352 rotates, and then the rotation of the support shaft 353 drives the support leg 36 installed on the support shaft 353 to rotate. As the rotation angle increases, the support leg 36 begins to contact the ground, and the greater the rotation angle, the more the support leg 36 contacts the ground, so as to achieve the purpose of straightening the nursing robot. Preferably, the rotation ratio of the driving wheel 33 and the driven wheel 34 is 2:1, so as to ensure that the support leg 36 can be quickly rotated out, and the end of the support leg 36 that contacts the ground is installed with a bull's eye wheel 361, so as to ensure that the mounting chassis 1 can still be moved when the support leg 36 is in an open state, so that the anti-dumping device can provide additional supporting force for the nursing robot when it tends to tip over, thereby ensuring the safety of the nursing robot and the person being cared for.

[0044] like Figure 2 As shown, the support leg 36 is close to the mounting chassis 1 in a normal state and does not contact the ground. Preferably, the rotating support unit 3 is tilted 15° relative to the mounting chassis 1 as a whole to ensure that in a normal state, when the support leg 36 is in a retracted state, the support leg 36 does not contact the ground. This ensures that the rotating support unit does not affect the movement of the robot mounting chassis 1 in a normal state. When it is detected that the nursing robot has a tendency to tip over, the support leg 36 will rotate rapidly. As the rotation angle increases, the support leg 36 begins to contact the ground, and the greater the rotation angle, the more the support leg 36 contacts the ground, so as to achieve the purpose of straightening the nursing robot.

[0045] In another aspect, the present invention discloses an anti-dumping nursing robot, see Figure 7 , including the anti-dumping device as described above, a robot body 4 and a gyroscope 5, the robot body 4 is fixed on the mounting chassis 1, the gyroscope is also fixed on the mounting chassis 1, and a radar 6 is installed on the head of the robot body 4, and the surface of the robot body 4 is covered with a flexible electronic skin 7.

[0046] On the other hand, the present invention discloses an anti-dumping detection system for an anti-dumping nursing robot, comprising a radar 6, a flexible electronic skin 7, a gyroscope 5 and a control unit, wherein the radar 6 is used to obtain the distance between the nursing robot and various obstacles in the working environment, and transmit the obtained information to the control unit; when the nursing robot collides with an obstacle in the environment, the flexible electronic skin detects the size and direction of the contact force between the nursing robot and the obstacle, and transmits the obtained information to the control unit; the gyroscope 5 is used to measure the inclination angle of the nursing robot in real time, and transmits the obtained information to the control unit; the control unit is used to receive the distance between the nursing robot and various obstacles in the working environment sent by the radar 6, and when it is judged that the distance between the nursing robot and the obstacle is less than a set first safety threshold, the anti-dumping detection is started; the size and direction of the contact force between the nursing robot and the obstacle sent by the flexible electronic skin 7 are received, and when it is judged that the contact force between the nursing robot and the obstacle is greater than a set second safety threshold, the anti-dumping device is started; the inclination angle of the nursing robot sent by the gyroscope 5 is received, and when it is judged that the inclination angle of the nursing robot is greater than a set third safety threshold, the anti-dumping device is kept started.

[0047] In the anti-dumping detection system, multiple sensors are integrated to form a closed loop, which can comprehensively detect whether the nursing robot has tipped over and activate the anti-dumping device in time to ensure the safe operation of the nursing robot.

[0048] Another aspect of the present invention discloses an anti-dumping detection method, see Figure 8 , specifically including the following steps:

[0049] The minimum safe distance between the nursing robot and the obstacle is set as the first safety threshold; the maximum safe value of the contact force between the nursing robot and the obstacle is set as the second safety threshold; the maximum safe angle of inclination of the nursing robot is set as the third safety threshold;

[0050] The radar 6 obtains the distance between the nursing robot and various obstacles in the working environment in real time, and transmits the obtained information to the control unit. When the control unit determines that the distance between the nursing robot and the obstacle is less than the set first safety threshold, the tipping detection is activated, otherwise, the anti-tip device is not activated;

[0051] After the tipping detection is turned on, when the nursing robot collides with an obstacle, the flexible electronic skin 7 detects the magnitude and direction of the contact force between the nursing robot and the obstacle in real time, and transmits the acquired information to the control unit. When the control unit determines that the contact force between the nursing robot and the obstacle is greater than the set second safety threshold, the anti-tip device is activated to correct the nursing robot. Otherwise, the anti-tip device stops running and returns to the initial state.

[0052] The gyroscope 5 measures the tilt angle of the nursing robot in real time and transmits the acquired information to the control unit. When the control unit determines that the tilt angle of the nursing robot is greater than the set third safety threshold, the anti-dumping device continues to be activated until the nursing robot is in the correct position.

[0053] Specifically, when it is detected that the robot has a tendency to tip over, the support leg 36 rotates, and as the rotation angle increases, the support leg 36 gradually begins to contact the ground, and the greater the rotation angle, the more the support leg 36 contacts the ground, so as to achieve the purpose of straightening the nursing robot; when the tilt direction of the nursing robot is determined, the rotating counterweight 23 will quickly rotate to the direction opposite to the tilt direction of the nursing robot, providing the nursing robot with a reverse counterweight and then straightening the nursing robot. After the nursing robot is straightened, the rotating counterweight 23 returns to the initial position.

[0054] The present invention discloses an anti-dumping device, a nursing robot provided with the anti-dumping device, and an anti-dumping detection system and method, which can effectively prevent the nursing robot from tipping over in the process of performing nursing tasks, thereby ensuring the safety of a person being cared for and the nursing robot, and has a simple structure and a simple implementation method, thereby facilitating wide application and promotion.
