Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of deformable wheels, and in particular to a deformable wheel mechanism suitable for driving on soft roads. Background Art
[0002] Small mobile robots can often be seen in some off-road environments.

[0052] like Figure 3 As shown, the traveling wheel 1 is a disc-shaped structure provided with a central hole 13. A plurality of first strip-shaped blocks 11 are evenly distributed along the circumference on the edge of one side surface. A radially distributed first guide rail 12 is provided between the middle portion of each first strip-shaped block 11 along the circumference and the central hole 13. The first guide rails 12 correspond one-to-one to the first strip-shaped blocks 11. A first guide rail 12 extending radially along the traveling wheel 1 is provided between each first strip-shaped block 11 and the central hole 13. One end of the first guide rail 12 is located on the outer peripheral side of the central hole 13, and the other end is located in the middle portion of the corresponding first strip-shaped block 11 along the circumference. The first guide rail 12 may be a T-shaped guide rail.
[0053] The lead screw 2 is provided with an external thread and is coaxially arranged with the traveling wheel 1 and can rotate around the axis of the traveling wheel 1; the center hole 13 at the center of the traveling wheel 1 can be used for the lead screw 2 to pass through and be movably installed;
[0054] like Figure 4 As shown, the outer edge of the first movement ring 3 is provided with a first connecting block 31 corresponding one-to-one with the first strip block 11. The inner circumference of the first movement ring 3 is provided with an internal thread 32, which is screwed together with the external thread of the lead screw 2 through the internal thread 32.

[0056] like Figure 6 As shown, the blade 7 corresponds to the first strip block 11 one by one and is rotatably connected; a first protrusion 72 is provided on the web of the blade 7; in this embodiment, the blade 7 that is triangular as a whole and has an arc in the radial direction is used as an example for explanation, and the blade 7 can also adopt other shapes; the blade 7 is provided with circular rings 71 corresponding to the two ends of the first strip block 11, and the first strip block 11 is provided with a through hole. When the blade 7 is installed on the first strip block 11, the two circular rings 71 are respectively located at the two ends of the first strip block 11, and the circular hole in the middle of the circular ring 71 is opposite to the through hole of the first strip block 11.

The first moving slider 5 is located between the blade 7 and the first moving ring 3 and is movably connected to the first moving ring 3 via the first pull rod 4 and to the blade 7 via the second pull rod 6. During use, by driving the lead screw 2 to rotate, the blade 7 is driven to open and close via the first moving ring 3, the first pull rod 4, the first moving slider 5, and the second pull rod 6 in sequence, thereby changing the deformable wheel mechanism into different configurations. The rotation angle of the blade 7 changes the contact area with the ground, thereby increasing the contact area of the blade 7 with the ground when the deformable wheel sinks, thereby improving the passability of the deformable wheel on soft roads.

[0062] A plurality of first strip blocks 11 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the edge of one side surface of the traveling wheel 1. A first guide rail 12 is provided radially between the middle portion of each first strip block 11 and the center hole 13. A second strip block symmetrical to the first strip block 11 and a second guide rail symmetrical to the first guide rail 12 are provided on the other side surface of the traveling wheel 1. The number, position, and structure of the second strip blocks are identical to those of the first strip blocks 11, and the number, position, and structure of the second guide rails are identical to those of the first guide rails 12.
[0063] The lead screw 2 is provided through the central hole 13, and is provided with external threads of opposite rotation at both ends. The external threads of opposite rotation realize the symmetrical movement of the first movement ring 3 and the second movement ring 14, thereby realizing the synchronous movement of the blade 7 and the reverse blade 8;
[0064] The first and second movement rings 3, 14 have symmetrical structures and are located on either side of the traveling wheel 1, with the first and second movement rings 3, 14 being symmetrically arranged with the traveling wheel 1 as the plane of symmetry.

[0068] A third pull rod 16 is movably connected between the corresponding second connecting portion and the second connecting block; the third pull rod 16 and the first pull rod 4 are symmetrically arranged about the traveling wheel 1, and are used to drive the second moving slider 15 to slide along the second guide rail;
[0069] During use, the lead screw 2 drives the first moving ring 3 and the second moving ring 14 to move symmetrically about the traveling wheel 1 along the axial direction of the lead screw 2, that is, the first moving ring 3 and the second moving ring 14 will simultaneously move linearly toward the traveling wheel 1 or simultaneously move linearly away from the traveling wheel 1; while the first moving ring 3 moves along the axial direction of the lead screw 2, it drives the first moving slider 5 to slide along the first guide rail 12 through the first pull rod 4. Similarly, while the second moving ring 14 moves along the axial direction of the lead screw 2, it drives the second moving slider 15 to slide along the second guide rail through the third pull rod 16. The first moving slider 5 drives the blades 7 to slide relative to each other through the second pull rod 6. As the first strip block 11 rotates, the second moving slider 15 drives the reverse blade 8 to rotate relative to the second strip block through the fourth pull rod 17, thereby realizing the synchronous opening and closing of the blade 7 and the reverse blade 8, so that the deforming wheel mechanism changes different shapes according to different road surfaces, so that the deforming wheel mechanism can increase the contact area with the road surface through the deformation of the blade 7 and the reverse blade 8, thereby adapting to soft and easily sinking road surfaces. The deforming wheel mechanism in this embodiment is provided with blades 7 and reverse blades 8 on both sides of the traveling wheel 1, thereby being able to multiply the contact area with the road surface. Therefore, the above-mentioned deforming wheel mechanism can better adapt to soft and easily sinking road surfaces.

When the blade 7 rotates around the rotating shaft, the reverse blade 8 is driven by the belt to rotate around the rotating shaft, thereby realizing the synchronous rotation of the blade 7 and the reverse blade 8; when a chain transmission mechanism is installed between the corresponding blades 7 and the reverse blade 8, similarly to the belt transmission mechanism 10, the chain The transmission mechanism includes a driving sprocket fixedly connected to the ring 71 of the blade 7, a driven sprocket fixedly connected to the ring 71 of the reverse blade 8, and a chain wrapped around the outer circumference of the driving sprocket and the driven sprocket. When the blade 7 rotates around the rotating shaft, the reverse blade 8 is driven by the chain to rotate around the rotating shaft, thereby achieving synchronous rotation of the blade 7 and the reverse blade 8. In order to realize the installation of the gear transmission mechanism 9, the belt transmission mechanism 10 or the chain transmission mechanism on the traveling wheel 1, the traveling wheel 1 is provided with a hollow structure for passing the gear transmission mechanism 9, the belt transmission mechanism 10 or the chain transmission mechanism.
[0072] During use, the screw 2 drives the first moving ring 3 to move symmetrically along the axial direction of the screw 2. The first moving ring 3 drives the first moving slider 5 to slide along the first guide rail 12 through the first pull rod 4.
