Description

[0003] After searching, the invention patent with Chinese patent application number CN202111272174.X discloses a elderly care service robot with voice call, which is roughly described as including a main body, which is a elderly care service robot with a voice call function, and the main body includes: a push rod, the internal angle position of the push rod is an inclined structure, the front end of the push rod is a wedge-shaped structure, the push rod is installed inside the inner groove, and the front end of the push rod is inserted into the rectangular groove of the mounting plate. When in use, the mounting part can be pressed to make the mounting part move downward together with the moving rod, so that the moving rod can contact the front end of the push rod through the outer end of the push part, so that the push rod can be displaced by force, and then the downward pressure is converted into lateral pushing power, so that the call button can be quickly triggered, which solves the problem that it is difficult to press the voice button of the elderly care service robot, which is inconvenient to operate and requires the elderly to get up to press the voice button, which poses a safety hazard.

[0038] A robot system for elderly care services includes a signal receiver, a central controller and a signal stimulator. The signal receiver, the central controller and the signal stimulator are integrated on a circuit board. The circuit board is installed in a main body 1. The signal receiver receives pressure signals of six pressure sensors 9. The signal receiver is electrically connected to the central controller. The central controller converts and compares the pressure signal values ​​received by the signal receiver, and judges and inputs the control signal into the signal stimulator based on the processed information after conversion and comparison. The signal stimulator is used for the excitation control of the airbag 14. The central controller has an internal and external interaction module and multiple open access ports.

[0039] The signal receiver, central controller, signal stimulator, circuit board, internal and external interaction module, open access port, first servo motor 4, second servo motor 5, front view camera 10, adjustment vision camera 12, pressure sensor 9, airbag 14, third servo motor 13, fourth servo motor 17, side rear view camera 33 and side front view camera 34 in this embodiment are all conventional equipment purchased on the market and well known to those skilled in the art. In the present invention, we only use them and do not improve their structure and function. For those skilled in the art, their setting method, installation method and electrical connection method only need to be debugged according to the requirements of their instruction manual and will not be described in detail here.

[0040] In summary, the working principle of the elderly care service robot and system is that when in use, the elderly care service robot is firstly electrically equipped and debugged. During the electrical installation process, the first servo motor 4, the second servo motor 5, the front view camera 10, the adjustment visual camera 12, the pressure sensor 9, the airbag 14, the fourth servo motor 17, the side rear view camera 33 and the side front view camera 34 are equipped with open access ports to form an electrical installation, so as to facilitate the central controller to control the front view camera 10, the adjustment visual camera 12, the pressure sensor 9, the side rear view camera 33 and the side front view camera 34. The data is read and called, and it is also convenient for the central controller to control the power-on operation of the first servo motor 4, the second servo motor 5, the third servo motor 13 and the fourth servo motor 17. The elderly care service robot is equipped with an adapter battery to form the overall power supply of the elderly care service robot. During actual operation, the six second servo motors 5 respectively realize the rotation drive of the six rotating leg frames 6. When the rotating leg frames 6 rotate relatively, they are subject to the transmission effect of the linkage frame and the linkage shaft 8. When the rotating leg frames 6 rotate and rise relative to the ground, the linkage leg frames 7 will form a linkage rotation relative to the corresponding rotating leg frames 6 connected to them, that is, the relative angle between the rotating leg frames 6 and the linkage leg frames 7 connected to each other is reduced. When the rotating leg frames 6 are rotated and lifted, the linkage leg frames 7 will also be lifted relative to the ground. The linkage leg frames 7 at the diagonal positions are alternately lifted and lowered to realize the overall movement and walking of the elderly care service robot. By opening the access port to install an external touch display screen and installing AI voice software, the voice command and information interaction of the elderly care service robot can be realized. According to the voice prompt, the elderly care service robot can execute the corresponding command. When materials need to be moved, the materials only need to be placed on the structure formed by the main body 1, the auxiliary body 2, the outer connecting frame 15 and the inner connecting frame 16. According to the size and shape of the moving materials, the two fourth servo motors 17 can be used to respectively realize the rotation drive of the two driving synchronous wheels 19. Under the sequential transmission action of the synchronous belt 20, the driven synchronous wheel 21 and the driving shaft 18, the position adjustment of the auxiliary body 2 relative to the main body 1 can be realized, and the inner connecting frame 16 and the outer connecting frame 15 also form a follow-up adjustment, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the support storage area according to the corresponding moving materials.

[0041] Furthermore, for the elderly with weaker physiques, the robot can form follow-up protection to match the elderly's standing and walking. After entering the standing follow-up protection mode, the third servo motor 13 is powered on and first adjusts the visual camera 12 to rotate to an obliquely upward front state to facilitate the recognition of the state of the standing elderly, and the two fourth servo motors 17 are used to adjust the two sub-bodies 2 to move away from each other. Then, the six second servo motors 5 are coordinated and operated to adjust the relative position of the elderly care service robot relative to the elderly, so that the elderly enter the area surrounded by the main body 1, the sub-body 2, the outer connecting frame 15 and the inner connecting frame 16. If necessary, the first servo motor 4 is powered on and controls the swivel body 3 to rotate relative to the sub-body 2. After that, the overall state of the elderly care service robot enters the state as shown in the attached figure. Fig.11 In the state shown, the elderly care service robot can form an overall surrounding protection relative to the standing elderly, and if the elderly walks, the visual camera 12 will be recognized, so that the elderly care service robot can actively follow the walking elderly. During the walking process, the elderly can grasp the elderly care service robot in a suitable position according to their personal preferences, and can sit on the elderly care service robot for a temporary rest when they are tired of walking. During this process, the six pressure sensors 9 monitor the pressure values ​​at all times. When the detection values ​​of the diagonal positions of the six pressure sensors 9 increase and decrease alternately, it means that the elderly care service robot is in a walking state. When the detection values ​​of the six pressure sensors 9 are all the same, it means that the elderly care service robot is in a walking state. When the two pressure sensors 9 are large and equal, it means that the elderly care service robot is in a static state, and when the detection values ​​of the six pressure sensors 9 show that one side is large and the other side is smaller, and the pressure sensors 9 between the larger and smaller sides show a gradual distribution from large to small, it means that the elderly care service robot as a whole is in a state of bearing deviatoric force, and when the detection value of the pressure sensor 9 on the smaller side tends to zero, while the larger side continues to increase, it means that the elderly care service robot is very likely to fall over. Combined with the information of the elderly collected by the adjusting visual camera 12, if the overall fall of the elderly care service robot is caused by the fall of the elderly, the airbag 14 will pop out to actively realize the auxiliary protection of the elderly.

[0042] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
