The specific structure is shown in the attached manual. Figure 1-4 The specific plan is as follows:

[0044] A wheeled humanoid robot comprises a head component 1, an upper body component 2, a leg component 3, an arm component 4 and a movable chassis component 5;

[0045] The head component 1 is movably connected to the upper body component 2 to enable the head component 1 to rotate relative to the upper body component 2 in the vertical direction and / or horizontal direction;

[0046] The upper body component 2 is movably connected to the leg component 3, so that the upper body component 2 can be switched between a bent state and an extended state relative to the leg component 3 and / or the upper body component 2 can be lifted or lowered relative to the leg component 3;

[0047] The leg assembly 3 is movably connected to the upper body assembly 2, and the leg assembly 3 can be switched between a bent state and an extended state;

[0048] The arm assembly 4 is movably connected to the upper body assembly 2 to enable the arm assembly 4 to rotate and / or swing relative to the upper body assembly 2; and all or part of the arm assembly 4 can achieve multi-angle rotation and / or multi-angle swing.

[0049] As attached Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a highly flexible robot device. Specifically, the head component 1 is movably connected to the upper body component 2, so that the head component 1 can not only flexibly rotate in the vertical direction to observe the environment at different heights, but also freely rotate in the horizontal direction, thereby achieving 360-degree monitoring and perception of the surroundings without blind spots.

[0050] The upper body component 2 is movably connected to the leg component 3, so that the upper body component 2 can smoothly switch between a bent state and an extended state relative to the leg component 3, simulating the posture of a human bending or standing. Fig. 9 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the robot in the present embodiment in a bent state; at the same time, the upper body component 2 can also be raised and lowered relative to the leg component 3, further broadening the robot's operating range.

[0051] The leg assembly 3 is also movably connected to the upper body assembly 2, ensuring that the legs can switch between a bent state and an extended state when needed to support the robot's walking, running or jumping movements, as shown in the attached Fig.10As shown, this is a schematic diagram of the robot in a squatting state in this embodiment, which greatly improves the flexibility of the robot, allowing the robot to cross obstacles or move stably on different terrains.

[0052] The arm assembly 4 is a key component of the robot to perform specific tasks. It is movably connected to the upper body assembly 2, so that the arm assembly 4 can be widely rotated and swung relative to the upper body assembly 2 to meet various grasping, operation or interaction requirements. Moreover, each joint in the arm assembly 4 has the ability to realize multi-angle rotation and multi-angle swing, which greatly enhances the operation accuracy and flexibility of the robot. Figure 5 As shown, the arm assembly 4 of the robot in this embodiment includes a wrist function module 411, a forearm function module 412, an elbow function module 413, an upper arm function module 414 and a shoulder function module 415, and can realize wrist rotation, wrist swing, forearm rotation, elbow rotation, upper arm rotation, shoulder rotation, and shoulder swing, a total of seven degrees of freedom, which greatly improves the flexibility and accessibility of the robot arm.

[0053] At the same time, the chassis assembly 5 of the robot in this embodiment is provided with driving wheels, so that the chassis assembly 5 can drive the robot to move as a whole, and has high flexibility.

[0054] In a specific embodiment, the upper body component 2 includes a back component 21 and a waist component 22; one side of the waist component 22 is movably connected to the back component 21, and the other side is movably connected to the leg component 3;

[0055] The back component 21 includes a lifting drive mechanism 211, which is used to drive the back component 21 to rise and fall relative to the waist component 22; the waist component 22 includes a bending drive mechanism 221, which is used to drive the back component 21 to switch between a bent state and an extended state relative to the leg component 3.

[0056] In this embodiment, in order to further improve the flexibility and functionality of the robot, the upper body component 2 is subdivided into a back component 21 and a waist component 22. The waist component 22 plays a key role in connecting the upper and lower parts, with one side movably connected to the back component 21 and the other side movably connected to the leg component 3.

[0057] Furthermore, a lifting drive mechanism 211 is integrated inside the back component 21, and the lifting drive mechanism 211 can drive the back component 21 to perform vertical lifting movement relative to the waist component 22. Through the precise control of the lifting drive mechanism 211, the robot can adjust the height of its upper body to adapt to different working requirements or terrain conditions while maintaining the balance and stability of the body.

[0058] The waist component 22 has a built-in bending drive mechanism 221, which can drive the back component 21 (together with the head component 1 thereon and the possibly attached arm component 4) to smoothly switch between a bent state and an extended state relative to the leg component 3, allowing the robot to simulate natural movements such as bending and standing up, so that it can flexibly shuttle in various complex environments and perform various precision operations, greatly enhancing the robot's movement flexibility and operating range.

[0059] In a specific embodiment, as shown in the attached Figure 2 As shown, the lifting drive mechanism 211 includes a mounting seat 2111, a lifting drive unit 2112, a transmission unit 2113, a lifting seat 2114 and a first self-locking screw 2115; the lifting drive unit 2112, the first screw 2115 and the transmission unit 2113 are all arranged on the mounting seat 2111; the lifting drive unit 2112, as the power source of the entire lifting mechanism, drives and connects the first screw 2115, ensuring efficient power transmission; the first screw 2115 is transmission-connected to the transmission unit 2113; the transmission unit 2113 is transmission-connected to the lifting seat 2114, so as to drive the lifting seat 2114 to rise and fall under the drive of the lifting drive unit 2112, thereby driving the lifting mechanism to rise and fall relative to the bending mechanism, greatly enhancing the adaptability and functionality of the robot;

[0060] As attached Figure 3 As shown, the waist component 22 also includes a first fixing plate 222, a second fixing plate 223, a waist bearing 224, a bearing pressure plate 225 and a bearing baffle 226; one side of the bending drive mechanism 221 is connected to the first fixing plate 222; the side of the bending drive mechanism 221 away from the first fixing plate 222 is provided with a bearing baffle 226, a waist bearing 224, a bearing pressure plate 225 and a second fixing plate 223 in sequence, and the bearing baffle 226 and the bearing pressure plate 225 are used to limit the waist bearing 224. The bearing baffle 226, the waist bearing 224, the bearing pressure plate 225 and the second fixing plate 223 work together, not only providing the necessary support for the waist bearing 224, but also ensuring the stability and durability of the waist component 22 during bending and straightening through the effective limiting of the bearing baffle 226 and the bearing pressure plate 225, so that the waist component 22 can maintain a high degree of flexibility and precision while bearing complex stresses, thereby further improving the overall performance of the robot.

[0061] In a specific embodiment, as shown in the attached Figure 4 As shown, the leg assembly 3 includes a leg housing 3113, a leg driving mechanism 32, a connecting rod assembly 33 and a second self-locking screw 34; the leg driving mechanism 32, the connecting rod assembly 33 and the second screw 34 are all located in the leg housing 3113;

[0062] In practical applications, the second lead screw 34 of this embodiment is preferably a trapezoidal lead screw, which, with its unique trapezoidal thread design, not only provides excellent high thrust performance, but also has excellent self-locking characteristics. This characteristic enables the leg assembly 3 to quickly achieve self-locking of the structure when the trapezoidal lead screw is used for transmission, even if the whole machine suddenly encounters unexpected situations such as power failure, effectively preventing accidental movement caused by loss of power, thereby greatly improving the safety and stability of the overall structure.

[0063] In addition, the large torque characteristics of the lead screw enable it to significantly reduce the torque requirements of the motor module in heavy-load applications by virtue of its strong torque bearing capacity. This means that smaller and lighter motors can be selected while maintaining the same transmission efficiency, thereby effectively reducing the weight of the entire machine and reducing production costs, while also providing more flexibility and possibilities for the design and manufacture of robots.

[0064] The connecting rod assembly 33 is movably connected to the upper body assembly 2; the leg driving mechanism 32 drives the second lead screw 34, and drives the connecting rod assembly 33 through the second lead screw 34 to realize the switching of the leg assembly 3 between the bent state and the straight state, thereby enhancing the movement flexibility of the robot and ensuring its stability and operating efficiency in complex environments.

[0065] In a specific embodiment, the arm assembly 4 includes at least one functional module 41 and an arm driving mechanism 42, and the arm driving mechanism 42 drives the functional module 41 to realize multi-angle rotation and / or multi-angle swing of all or part of the functional modules 41 in the arm assembly 4. As the execution unit of the arm assembly 4, the functional module 41 can be customized according to actual needs, including but not limited to multiple functions such as grasping, carrying, and operating tools, thereby giving the arm assembly 4 a wide range of applicability.

[0066] The arm driving mechanism 42 serves as the power source of the entire arm assembly 4. It can provide sufficient power support for the functional module 41, and can drive the functional module 41 to achieve multi-angle rotation and / or multi-angle swing, so that the arm assembly 4 can simulate the complex movements of the human arm, including rotation, swinging, stretching and other postures, greatly enhancing the operational flexibility and operating range of the robot.

[0067] In a specific embodiment, as shown in the attached Figure 5As shown, the functional module 41 includes at least one of a wrist functional module 411, a forearm functional module 412, an elbow functional module 413, an upper arm functional module 414 and a shoulder functional module 415; in actual applications, the arm assembly 4 of the robot in this embodiment includes a wrist functional module 411, a forearm functional module 412, an elbow functional module 413, an upper arm functional module 414 and a shoulder functional module 415, and can realize wrist rotation, wrist swing, forearm rotation, elbow rotation, upper arm rotation, shoulder rotation, and shoulder swing, a total of seven degrees of freedom, which greatly improves the flexibility and accessibility of the robot arm.

[0068] The arm driving mechanism 42 of at least one of the functional modules 41 includes a rotating module 421, a swinging module 422 and a synchronous belt 423;

[0069] One end of the synchronous belt 423 is transmission connected to the rotating module 421, and the other end is transmission connected to the swinging module 422, so that when one of the rotating module 421 and the swinging module 422 is driven, it drives the other of the rotating module 421 and the swinging module 422 to drive, thereby driving all or part of the functional modules 41 in the arm assembly 4 to achieve multi-angle rotation and multi-angle swing.

[0070] As attached Figure 6 As shown, the wrist function module 411 of this embodiment is composed of a swing module 422, a rotation module 421 and a synchronous belt 423; the rotation angle of the rotation module 421 can reach plus or minus 360 degrees, which gives the wrist function module 411 a large end posture adjustment range, so that the arm assembly 4 can be more flexibly and accurately positioned and operated when performing tasks. The swing module 422 drives the rotation module 421 to swing through the precise transmission of the synchronous belt 423, which not only ensures high precision, but also effectively reduces the overall volume of the arm assembly 4, making the entire arm assembly 4 more compact and efficient. At the same time, the swing angle of the swing module 422 exceeds 320 degrees, which further enhances the flexibility and adaptability of the robot arm.

[0071] In a specific embodiment, the chassis assembly 5 serves as the mobile base of the robot, ensuring efficient movement and accurate positioning of the robot in various complex environments. Figure 7 As shown, the chassis assembly 5 includes at least one driving wheel 51 and a navigation module 52, and the driving wheel 51 is electrically connected to the navigation module 52 to drive the robot to move under the guidance of the navigation module 52;

The two are electrically connected to achieve real-time information sharing and collaborative processing, providing the robot with accurate navigation and obstacle avoidance capabilities, and realizing autonomous movement and accurate positioning of the robot in complex environments.

[0073] The driving wheel 51 includes an active driving wheel 511 and a driven driving wheel 512. The active driving wheel 511 drives and connects to the driven driving wheel 512, which not only improves the movement speed of the robot, but also ensures its stability and flexibility during movement. The active driving wheel 511 and the driven driving wheel 512 are electrically connected to the front navigation radar 521 and the rear navigation radar 522, respectively, to achieve real-time interaction between navigation information and the driving system, ensuring that the robot can move accurately and efficiently under the guidance of the navigation module 52.

[0075] In actual application, the button module 54 of this embodiment includes a switch button and an emergency stop switch. The switch button is responsible for starting and shutting down the robot, while the emergency stop switch serves as a safety guarantee in an emergency. Once the robot encounters an abnormal situation or needs to stop working immediately, the user only needs to press the emergency stop switch, and the robot will immediately stop all actions to ensure the safety of personnel and equipment; the charging module 55 includes an automatic charging port and a manual charging port to meet the charging needs in different scenarios. The automatic charging port realizes unattended charging of the robot by docking with the automatic charging device, greatly improving the efficiency and convenience of charging. The manual charging port provides users with more flexible charging options.

[0077] The upper rotation drive mechanism 11 of the head ensures that the head assembly 1 can achieve smooth and stable rotation in the vertical direction, so as to capture target information at different heights and broaden the robot's visual range. The lower rotation drive mechanism 12 of the head ensures that the head assembly 1 can achieve 360-degree full rotation in the horizontal direction, improving the robot's environmental perception ability, and also enabling the robot to flexibly adjust the viewing angle when interacting with the user, thereby enhancing the comfort and naturalness of the interaction.

[0078] In a specific embodiment, as shown in the attached Figure 8 As shown, the head assembly 1 further includes a shell 13, a camera module 14, a voice module 15, a speaker and a display module 17; the camera module 14, the voice module 15, the speaker module 16 and the display module 17 are all arranged on the shell 13 and exposed relative to the shell 13;
