[0013] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the desktop-level heterogeneous modular mobile robot provided by the present invention includes a battery pack I, a modular body II, a heterogeneous chassis III and a controller 11; wherein, the rear end face of the modular body II is the first mounting face 7, and the lower end face is the third mounting face 3; a battery is arranged inside the battery pack I, and the front end face is the second mounting face 2; a motor connected to a roller is arranged inside the heterogeneous chassis III, and the upper end face is the fourth mounting face 4; the first mounting face 7 and the second mounting face 2 are provided with sliding grooves that cooperate with each other, and the battery pack I is detachably mounted on the rear end face of the modular body II through these two sliding grooves; the third mounting face 3 and the fourth mounting face 4 are provided with sliding grooves that cooperate with each other, and the modular body II is detachably mounted on the top surface of the heterogeneous chassis III through these two sliding grooves; the controller 11 is mounted inside the modular body II and is electrically connected to the motor; the battery is used to provide electrical energy to various electrical components on the robot.

[0014] A limiting device is provided at the upper end of the second mounting surface 2 to limit the position of the battery pack I.

[0015] A limiting device is provided at one end of the third mounting surface 3 to limit the position of the heterogeneous chassis III.

[0016] The heterogeneous chassis III includes a Mecanum wheel heterogeneous chassis 51, a three-wheel heterogeneous chassis 52 and a two-wheel heterogeneous chassis 53, which are assembled into different mobile robots.

[0017] The installation method of the desktop-level heterogeneous modular mobile robot provided by the present invention is described as follows:

[0018] 1) Align the front or rear end of the sliding groove of the fourth mounting surface 4 on the heterogeneous chassis III with one end of the sliding groove without a limiting device on the third mounting surface 3 of the modular fuselage II, and then push the heterogeneous chassis III horizontally until the front or rear end of the sliding groove of the heterogeneous chassis III touches the limiting device on the third mounting surface 3, thereby installing the modular fuselage II on the top surface of the heterogeneous chassis III;

[0019] 2) Align the lower end of the sliding groove of the second mounting surface 2 on the battery pack I with the upper end of the sliding groove of the first mounting surface 7 on the modular body II, and insert the battery pack I downward until the upper end of the sliding groove of the first mounting surface 7 on the modular body II touches the limit device at the upper end of the second mounting surface 2, thereby installing the battery pack I on the rear end surface of the modular body II;

[0021] Directions:

[0022] Before use, you can obtain a mobile robot with different functions by replacing the heterogeneous chassis III with different wheel types, such as Figure 2 The Mecanum wheel heterogeneous chassis 51 in the embodiment constitutes a Mecanum wheel mobile robot; Figure 2 The three-wheel heterogeneous chassis 52 in the embodiment constitutes a three-wheel mobile robot; Figure 2 The two-wheeled heterogeneous chassis 53 in the embodiment constitutes a two-wheeled mobile robot. Since the modular fuselage II and the heterogeneous chassis III use universal modules, different types of mobile robots only need to install the corresponding heterogeneous chassis III, without having to manufacture the entire mobile robot. Therefore, the production cycle is shortened, the production cost is reduced, the number of equipment is reduced, the guarantee scale and maintenance cost are reduced, and the size and cost of the mobile robot can be reduced, providing a more low-cost, small-space and portable experimental equipment for teaching and scientific research.

[0023] In addition, different battery life can be achieved by replacing the battery pack I with different types of batteries. Mobile robots with different functions can be obtained by replacing the controller 11.

[0024] When in use, under the control of the controller 11, the motor inside the heterogeneous chassis III is used to drive the rollers to rotate, thereby moving the entire desktop-level heterogeneous modular mobile robot.
