[0047] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a transport robot, which includes a moving platform 100, a position adjustment mechanism 200, an angle adjustment mechanism 300 and a moving mechanism 400, wherein the position adjustment mechanism 200 is arranged on the mounting seat 210, the moving platform 100 is connected to the position adjustment component, the position adjustment component can drive the moving platform 100 to translate on the mounting seat 210, the angle adjustment mechanism 300 is connected to the mounting seat 210, the angle adjustment mechanism 300 is used to adjust the inclination angle of the mounting seat 210, and the moving mechanism 400 includes a shell 410, the angle adjustment mechanism 300 is installed on the shell 410, and casters 420 are provided at the bottom of the shell 410. When in use, the items to be installed are placed on the moving platform 100, and the transport robot is manually pushed to rotate the casters 420 at the bottom of the moving mechanism 400, so that the transport robot can move in the aircraft cabin. Since the transport robot is small in size and highly integrated, it is convenient to transport the items to be installed in the aircraft cabin with a small space, saving time and effort, and will not collide with the sound insulation cotton, circuits and skin in the aircraft cabin, so as to avoid affecting the quality and safety of the aircraft. And through the position adjustment mechanism 200 and the angle adjustment mechanism 300 of the transport robot, the position and posture of the items to be installed can be slightly adjusted so that the items to be installed can be accurately docked with the installation positioning holes in the aircraft cabin. For example, the items to be installed can be the front and rear kitchens of the aircraft, and the front and rear kitchens of the aircraft can be accurately docked with the positioning holes on the floor structure in the aircraft cabin through the transport robot.

[0048] Furthermore, a buffer pad may be provided on the side of the movable platform 100 that contacts the object to be installed. For example, the buffer pad may be made of materials such as rubber. On the one hand, the buffer pad can prevent the object to be installed from directly contacting the movable platform 100 and preventing the object to be installed from being damaged; on the other hand, the buffer pad can also play an anti-slip role and prevent the object to be installed from falling off the movable platform 100.

[0049] More preferably, a bubble level is further provided on the mounting base 210, and the bubble level can be used to detect the horizontality of the moving platform 100 so as to adjust its posture and position, with flexible adjustment and accurate positioning.

[0050] As an optional solution, the angle adjustment mechanism 300 in this embodiment includes a first support rod 310, a second support rod 320 and a third support rod 330, which are arranged in such a tripod-type structure, which is conducive to improving the stability of the angle adjustment mechanism 300 in supporting the moving platform 100, and has better load-bearing capacity. Furthermore, the lower end surface of the mounting seat 210 connected to the moving platform 100 is provided with three ball joint seats 211, and the top ends of the first support rod 310, the second support rod 320 and the third support rod 330 are respectively connected to a corresponding ball joint seat 211, and the bottom ends of the first support rod 310, the second support rod 320 and the third support rod 330 are hinged to the outer shell 410. Therefore, by adjusting the inclination angle of the three support rods relative to the outer shell 410, the moving platform 100 and the horizontal plane (i.e. Figure 1 The tilt angle between the moving platform 100 and the XY plane shown in the figure is adjusted to adjust the posture of the moving platform 100 and the object to be installed placed on the moving platform 100.

[0051] Continue to see Figure 5-Figure 7 In this embodiment, three saddle assemblies 430 are provided on the top of the housing 410, and the first support rod 310, the second support rod 320 and the third support rod 330 are respectively connected to a corresponding saddle assembly 430. Through the provision of the saddle assembly 430, the relative heights between the bottom ends of the first support rod 310, the second support rod 320 and the third support rod 330 and the housing 410 can be adjusted respectively, and then the heights of the three supporting points of the top ends of the first support rod 310, the second support rod 320 and the third support rod 330 to the moving platform 100 change, thereby achieving the adjustment of the posture of the moving platform 100.

[0052] Exemplarily, in this embodiment, the housing 410 is configured to be approximately T-shaped, and the housing 410 includes three protruding ends, each of which is provided with a saddle assembly 430, and the three saddle assemblies 430 are respectively connected to the first support rod 310, the second support rod 320, and the third support rod 330. The three saddle assemblies 430 have the same structure, and each saddle assembly 430 includes a first slide rail 431, a first slider 432, and a first drive assembly. The first slider 432 in each saddle assembly 430 is slidably connected to the first slide rail 431, and the first drive assembly is transmission-connected to the first slider 432. The bottom ends of the first support rod 310, the second support rod 320, and the third support rod 330 are respectively hinged to the corresponding first slider 432, that is, the first slider 432 in each saddle assembly 430 is connected to a support rod. Optionally, each first slider 432 is provided with a fixing ear 4321 , and the bottom ends of the first support rod 310 , the second support rod 320 and the third support rod 330 are hinged to the fixing ear 4321 on the corresponding first slider 432 via a first connecting shaft 4322 .

[0053] Continue to see Figure 5 and Figure 7 In this embodiment, the first drive assembly includes a first rotary motor 433 and a first lead screw 434. The output end of the first rotary motor 433 is connected to the first lead screw 434. A threaded hole is provided on the first slider 432, and the first lead screw 434 is connected with the threaded hole. The first rotary motor 433 drives the first lead screw 434 to rotate, so that the first slider 432 can reciprocate along the first slide rail 431. Exemplarily, the first rotary motor 433 can use a servo motor, which has a large overload capacity, can bear a large torque, is not prone to vibration and noise, and has a good user experience. Of course, in other embodiments, the first drive assembly can also use a linear motor, etc., which is not limited here.

[0054] Optionally, a first hinge seat 412 is provided at the top of the housing 410, a first support leg 311 and a second support leg 312 are provided at the bottom end of the first support rod 310, the bottom end of the first support leg 311 is hinged to the corresponding first slider 432, and the bottom end of the second support leg 312 is hinged to the first hinge seat 412. Figure 1 and Figure 3 The second support leg 312 has a second hinge seat 313 at its top end, and the second hinge seat 313 includes two connection ends, which are respectively hinged to the bottom end of the first support rod 310 and the top end of the first bracket through a second connection shaft 3131 and a third connection shaft 3132. Exemplarily, the bottom end of the second support leg 312 is hinged to the first hinge seat 412 through a fourth connection shaft 4121.

[0055] Exemplarily, when the angle adjustment mechanism 300 adjusts the angle of the moving platform 100, the positions of the second support rod 320 and the third support rod 330 can be kept unchanged, and then the first rotating motor 433 connected to the first support rod 310 is driven to drive the corresponding first slider 432 to move up or down along the first slide rail 431, so that the moving platform 100 is adjusted clockwise by a certain angle in the YZ plane, or the moving platform 100 is adjusted counterclockwise by a certain angle in the YZ plane, and the rotation amount is ≥±5°. Of course, the position of the first support rod 310 can also be kept unchanged, and the position of the second support rod 320 or the third support rod 330 can be adjusted to adjust the moving platform 100 clockwise by a certain angle in the XZ plane, or the moving platform 100 is adjusted counterclockwise by a certain angle in the XZ plane. For example, by keeping the positions of the first support rod 310 and the second support rod 320 unchanged and adjusting the position of the third support rod 330, the height of the position where the moving platform 100 is connected to the second support rod 320 remains unchanged, and the position where the moving platform 100 is connected to the third support rod 330 is raised or lowered, so that the position where the moving platform 100 is connected to the third support rod 330 is adjusted clockwise or counterclockwise by a certain angle in the XZ plane, and the rotation amount is ≥±5°. Of course, in some cases, the positions of the first support rod 310 and the third support rod 330 can also be kept unchanged, and the position of the second support rod 320 can be adjusted. The posture adjustment of the above-mentioned moving platform 100 is to move the items to be installed to the designated installation position in the aircraft cabin, and accurately align the items to be installed with the positioning holes of the installation position, so as to facilitate assembly work. At the same time, the angle adjustment mechanism 300 has a high adjustment accuracy and sensitive control. By controlling the start and stop of the first rotating motor 433, the posture of the moving platform 100 can be fine-tuned at any time.

[0056] Further, see Figure 2 and Figure 6 In this embodiment, the position adjustment mechanism 200 includes an X-axis motion component 230 and a Y-axis motion component 220, wherein the Y-axis motion component 220 is disposed on the mounting seat 210, the X-axis motion component 230 is connected to the Y-axis motion component 220, and the moving platform 100 is connected to the X-axis motion component 230. The X-axis motion component 230 and the moving platform 100 can be driven to move in a first direction through the Y-axis motion component 220, and the moving platform 100 can be driven to move in a second direction through the X-axis motion component 230. The first direction is Figure 1 or Figure 5 The Y-axis direction shown in the figure, the second direction is Figure 1 and Figure 5 The X-axis direction is shown in .

[0057] As an optional solution, the Y-direction motion assembly 220 in this embodiment includes a second slide rail 221, a second slider 222, and a second drive assembly. The second slider 222 is slidably disposed on the second slide rail 221. The second slide rail 221 is disposed on the mounting seat 210 and extends along the first direction. The second drive assembly is in transmission connection with the second slider 222. The X-direction motion assembly 230 is connected with the second slider 222. Optionally, the second drive assembly can use a second rotary motor 223, which is in transmission connection with a second lead screw 224. The second lead screw 224 is threadedly engaged with the second slider 222. The second rotary motor 223 drives the second lead screw 224 to rotate, so that the second slider 222 can be controlled to reciprocate along the second slide rail 221, thereby realizing the position adjustment of the movable platform 100 along the first direction.

[0058] Further, the X-axis motion assembly 230 includes a third slide rail 231, a third slider 232 and a third drive assembly. The third slider 232 is slidably disposed on the third slide rail 231. The third slide rail 231 is disposed on the second slider 222 and extends along the second direction. The third drive assembly is in transmission connection with the third slider 232, and the moving platform 100 is connected with the third slider 232. Optionally, the third drive assembly can use a third rotary motor 233. The third rotary motor 233 is in transmission connection with a third lead screw 234. The third lead screw 234 is threadedly engaged with a connecting plate below the moving platform 100. The third rotary motor 233 drives the third lead screw 234 to rotate, so that the moving platform 100 can be driven to reciprocate along the second direction. At this time, the third slider 232 reciprocates along the third slide rail 231, and the position adjustment of the moving platform 100 along the second direction is realized. Of course, in some embodiments, the third lead screw and the third slider 232 may be threadedly matched, so that the third lead screw 234 can be driven to rotate by the third rotary motor 233, so as to drive the third slider 232 to reciprocate along the third slide rail 231, thereby realizing the reciprocating movement of the moving platform 100 along the second direction. Exemplarily, the second rotary motor 223 and the third rotary motor 233 may be stepper motors, and the repeatability of the stepper motors is limited to within 0.05 mm and the step length is limited to within 0.01 mm, thereby ensuring the positioning accuracy and realizing micro- and precise adjustment of the position of the moving platform 100.

[0059] Of course, in other embodiments, the Y-axis motion component 220 and the X-axis motion component 230 can also be set as linear motors, and the two linear motors are respectively set along the first direction and the second direction. By controlling the forward step length of the linear motor, the position of the moving platform 100 on the mounting base 210 can be accurately adjusted.

[0060] It should be noted that the three first rotating motors 433, the second rotating motor 223 and the third rotating motor 233 in the present embodiment are all connected to the motor driver 720, and the motor driver 720 can be used to select and drive any rotating motor to start or stop. Of course, the above rotating motors can work alone or in coordination, and are specifically determined according to the target position to which the moving platform 100 needs to be adjusted. The control is relatively convenient and flexible, and the adjustment accuracy is relatively high. The handling robot is powered on through the power interface 610, and the motor driver 720 and the controller 710 are both arranged inside the housing 410. Further, the motor driver 720 can be connected to the controller 710, and the controller 710 can be connected to the control panel through the network port 630 or the wireless bridge antenna 640 to meet different control environment requirements. The control panel and the handling robot are independently set, and the controller 710 can receive the control signal sent by the control panel, and then the controller 710 sends instructions to the motor driver 720, and the corresponding rotating motor is controlled to start and stop through the motor driver 720. More preferably, an emergency stop button 620 is further provided on the housing 410 of the transport robot. When an emergency occurs, all rotating motors can be controlled to stop running through the button to avoid safety accidents.

[0061] See also Figure 4 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The moving mechanism 400 in this embodiment also includes a manual parking component 500, which is arranged at the bottom of the shell 410 and can lock the caster 420. When the transport robot is pushed to the specified position by manpower, the caster 420 at the bottom of the shell 410 can be locked by the manual parking component 500 to ensure that it will not slip during the assembly process.

[0062] Optionally, the manual parking assembly 500 in this embodiment can use a brake structure similar to the brake on a bicycle. For example, in this embodiment, the bottom of the housing 410 is provided with three casters 420, and the manual parking assembly 500 includes a handle 510, a locking link 520 and three brake lines 540. The handle 510 is connected to the locking link 520, and the locking link 520 is connected to the three brake lines 540. Each brake line 540 is connected to a corresponding caster 420. When the handle 510 is bent, the handle 510 drives the locking link 520 to tighten the brake line 540. At this time, the brake line 540 tightens the caster 420 to prevent it from rotating. Furthermore, the manual parking assembly 500 also includes a locking ring 550 and a locking pin 530. The locking ring 550 is arranged on the housing 410 and has a plurality of fixing holes 551. When the handle 510 is moved to the locking position, the locking pin 530 is passed through the fixing holes 551 on the locking ring 550 and the handle 510 to fix the position of the handle 510, thereby fixing the locking link 520 and the brake line 540, and the caster 420 is locked and will no longer rotate, thereby ensuring that the transport robot is parked at the designated position.

[0063] In order to make the handling robot in this embodiment more suitable for handling work in the aircraft cabin, the shell 410 in this embodiment is a hollow structure, and the interior is supported by a skeleton 411. Among them, the shell 410, the first support rod 310, the second support rod 320 and the third support rod 330 are all made of carbon fiber materials to reduce the overall weight of the handling robot, have strong corrosion resistance, and ensure that it has sufficient support strength and bearing strength, so that it can carry heavier items. Of course, in some embodiments, the shell 410 can also be made of 3D printing technology, using ABS-M30, which is light in weight, strong in bending resistance and impact resistance, and has an overall weight of only 16.7kg, which meets the requirements of carrying into the aircraft cabin for operation. Further, the skeleton 411 in the shell 410 can be made of aluminum alloy material, which is light in weight and has strong support force, can provide good support for the shell 410, and is not easy to deform. At the same time, other structural parts of the handling robot, such as the saddle assembly 430, the manual parking device, etc., can also be made of aluminum alloy to ensure sufficient mechanical strength.

[0064] More preferably, a waterproof silicone membrane 413 is provided in the outer shell 410, which can protect the controller 710, motor driver 720 and other electrical parts inside it from contacting water vapor, etc., has good hydrophobicity, is resistant to weather acid and alkali, temperature and aging, and has no powdering and coking phenomena under the action of corona, and has strong voltage resistance, so that the transport robot can be used outdoors for a long time.

[0065] In addition, multiple transport robots can be provided in the present embodiment, and the multiple transport robots can be controlled in linkage. Each transport robot can bear a load of 100 kg. Multiple transport robots can be controlled simultaneously through a control panel to transport longer or larger objects to be transported. The moving platforms 100 of the multiple transport robots respectively support one part of the object to be installed.
