Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of wearable load transport equipment, and in particular relates to a waist-hanging three-wheeled power-assisted vehicle driven by multi-sensor data fusion. Background Art

[0002] In the task of transporting materials and equipment in complex terrain, such as the transportation of mountain rescue materials and equipment, the transportation of materials and communication equipment in urban ruins after earthquakes and wars, it is usually necessary for individual soldiers to carry out load-bearing marching and transportation. The existing individual carrying vehicles mainly include wheeled and tracked fully automatic battlefield following vehicles and two-wheeled carrying vehicles.

[0003] Wheeled fully automatic battlefield following vehicles have flexible steering, but poor off-road capabilities, limited impact resistance, and are easily affected by ground impacts and obstacles; tracked fully automatic battlefield following vehicles have strong off-road capabilities and good stability, but limited flexibility. Fully automatic battlefield following vehicles can navigate autonomously, require less manpower, and have good durability, but they consume more energy and are highly dependent on technology. In certain extreme climates or complex battlefield conditions, interference or failure may cause them to fail to operate normally.

[0004] Two-wheeled portable vehicles are low-cost and highly flexible, but because their existing control methods are mainly manual or fixed-speed remote control, they cannot adjust the vehicle's speed and lifting height in real time according to the speed of human movement and changes in road conditions, resulting in poor adaptability of human-machine movement, limited terrain adaptability under complex road conditions, and dragging or compression of the human-machine connection parts; in changing combat conditions, when a single soldier needs to accelerate, decelerate, turn, lie on the ground, or squat, due to the poor adaptability of human-machine movement, the inertia of the large load of the power-assisted vehicle can easily cause the vehicle to roll over and cause harm to the human body. In addition, the load-sharing capacity of the two-wheeled powered portable vehicle is limited, the human waist and shoulders are subjected to greater force, fatigue is easy, and the endurance is poor, resulting in limited supplies for a single soldier to carry during a march.

The present invention obtains the input signal of the wheel-leg drive motor and the input signal drive of the rear wheel hub motor through multi-sensor data fusion, thereby improving the flexibility of control and reducing interference with human movement. The present invention improves the adaptability of human-machine movement while maintaining good accompanying maneuverability. It can adjust the speed of the rear wheel drive in real time according to the speed of human movement, and adjust the wheel-leg drive joint angle in real time according to the change of road conditions to change the vehicle lifting height, reduce damage to the human body, and improve the adaptability of use in complex road conditions such as urban ruins, wild mountain jungles, etc. The triangular configuration of the wheel part proposed by the present invention can control the center of gravity of the load within the triangular configuration, providing effective load sharing for the human body.
