The polishing mechanism is used to polish the ground. The walking mechanism is used to drive the polishing mechanism to move on the ground. The dust collecting mechanism is used to collect dust generated by the polishing mechanism. The dust storage mechanism is used to store the dust collected by the dust collecting mechanism.

[0028] By placing the robot on the ground to be polished, the walking mechanism is controlled to drive the polishing mechanism to move on the ground. When it moves to the raised position on the ground, the polishing mechanism will polish the raised position to polish the ground flat. A lot of dust will be generated during the polishing process. At this time, the dust collection mechanism will collect the dust and transfer it to the dust storage mechanism for storage, thereby preventing the dust generated during the polishing process from floating in the air and being absorbed by the staff, thereby ensuring the health of the staff.

[0029] In some embodiments of the present invention, the grinding mechanism includes a grinding disc 2 and a grinding drive assembly. The grinding disc 2 is rotatably arranged at the bottom of the chassis 1, and the bottom surface of the grinding disc 2 is kept flush with the ground. The grinding drive assembly is used to drive the grinding disc 2 to rotate. When grinding, the grinding disc 2 is driven to rotate by the grinding drive assembly. When the grinding disc 2 moves to a raised position on the ground, since the bottom surface of the grinding disc 2 is kept flush with the ground, the grinding disc 2 will cut the raised position flat, thereby achieving the purpose of grinding the ground.

[0030] Furthermore, the grinding drive assembly includes a grinding motor 3, a main gear 4, a secondary gear 5, a gear 1 6, a gear 2 7, a connecting shaft 8 and a driving shaft 9. A motor slot 11 is provided on the chassis 1, and the grinding motor 3 is arranged in the motor slot 11. A circular slot 12 is also provided on the chassis 1, and the main gear 4 is arranged in the circular slot 12. The output shaft of the grinding motor 3 penetrates the circular slot 12 and is coaxially fixedly connected with the main gear 4. A rotating slot 13 is also provided on the chassis 1, and the secondary gear 5 is arranged in the rotating slot 13. The driving shaft 9 is coaxially fixedly arranged on the secondary gear 5, and one end of the driving shaft 9 away from the secondary gear 5 extends out of the chassis 1 and is coaxially fixedly connected with the grinding disc 2. Gear 1 6 and gear 2 7 are respectively arranged in the circular slot 12 and the rotating slot 13, and gear 1 6 is meshed with the main gear 4, and gear 2 7 is meshed with the secondary gear 5. A through groove 14 connecting the circular groove 12 and the rotating groove 13 is also provided on the chassis 1. The connecting shaft 8 is arranged in the through groove 14 and its two ends are coaxially fixedly connected to the gear 1 6 and the gear 2 7 respectively.

[0031] By turning on the grinding motor 3, the grinding motor 3 drives the main gear 4 to rotate coaxially, and the rotation of the main gear 4 drives the gear 1 6 to rotate, and the rotation of the gear 1 6 further drives the gear 2 7 to rotate through the connecting shaft 8, and the rotation of the gear 2 7 drives the secondary gear 5 to rotate, thereby driving the grinding disc 2 to rotate through the driving shaft 9. Through the mutual cooperation of the various gears, the grinding disc 2 is driven to rotate more stably.

[0032] Optionally, the chassis 1 is configured as a disc structure. A plurality of grinding discs 2 are provided, and the plurality of grinding discs 2 are evenly arranged along the circumference of the chassis 1. Specifically, four grinding discs 2 are provided. Accordingly, four secondary gears 5, gears 1 6, gears 2 7, connecting shafts 8, and driving shafts 9 are provided. Four rotating grooves 13 and through grooves 14 are also provided.

[0033] Furthermore, the circular groove 12 is located at the center of the four rotating grooves 13, and the main gear 4 is located at the center of the four secondary gears 5, thereby improving the coordination of the operation of the entire device.

[0034] Furthermore, the bottom edge of the grinding disc 2 is in an arc-shaped structure, so that the grinding disc 2 contacts the raised part of the ground more evenly and the grinding effect is better.

[0035] In some embodiments of the present invention, the walking mechanism includes a dual-axis motor 15 and two rollers 16. The dual-axis motor 15 is arranged on the bottom surface of the chassis 1. The two rollers 16 are coaxially fixed on the two output shafts of the dual-axis motor 15 and both rollers 16 can abut on the ground. When it is necessary to drive the grinding mechanism to move, turn on the dual-axis motor 15, and the dual-axis motor 15 will drive the two rollers 16 to roll on the ground, thereby realizing the movement of the grinding mechanism to grind different positions on the ground. By controlling the rotation speed of the two output shafts of the dual-axis motor 15, when the rotation speeds of the two output shafts of the dual-axis motor 15 are different, turning operation can be achieved.

[0036] Furthermore, the walking mechanism further includes two U-shaped plates 17 , and the two rollers 16 are rotatably disposed on the two U-shaped plates 17 , respectively, so that the rollers 16 roll more smoothly.

[0037] In some embodiments of the present invention, the dust collection mechanism includes a dust collection box 18, a dust collection drive assembly and a fan blade 19. The dust collection box 18 is arranged on the chassis 1. The fan blade 19 is arranged inside the dust collection box 18, and the dust collection drive assembly is used to drive the fan blade 19 to rotate. A dust collection groove 21 is provided on the chassis 1, one end of the dust collection groove 21 passes through the bottom of the chassis 1, and the other end is connected to the dust collection box 18. Optionally, the dust collection box 18 is arranged on the top of the chassis 1. The fan blade 19 is driven to rotate by the dust collection drive assembly, and the rotation of the fan blade 19 will form a negative pressure in the dust collection groove 21, so that the dust on the ground is gathered in the dust collection groove 21, and enters the dust collection box 18 through the dust collection groove 21 for collection.

[0038] Furthermore, an annular groove 22 is provided at the bottom of the chassis 1, and one end of the dust collecting groove 21 away from the dust collecting box 18 is connected to the annular groove 22. By providing the annular groove 22, dust can be easily collected.

The output shaft of the dust suction motor is coaxially fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 23, and the other end of the rotating shaft 23 is coaxially fixedly connected to the fan blade 19. When the dust suction motor is turned on, the dust suction motor drives the rotating shaft 23 to rotate coaxially, thereby driving the fan blade 19 to rotate.

[0041] In some alternative embodiments of the present invention, the dust suction motor is removed, so that the dust suction mechanism shares the grinding motor 3 of the grinding mechanism. The end of the rotating shaft 23 away from the fan blade 19 is coaxially fixedly connected to the side of the main gear 4 away from the grinding motor 3. When the grinding motor 3 drives the grinding disc 2 to rotate, it also drives the fan blade 19 to rotate synchronously, making the structure simpler and saving energy.

When the fan blade 19 rotates, the generated wind force blows the rotating plate 27, so that the air and dust in the dust collection box 18 enter the dust storage box 24 through the air inlet 25 at the same time. The dust falls into the bottom of the dust storage box 24 under the action of its own gravity, and the air is discharged from the dust storage box 24 through the air outlet 26. By providing the rotating plate 27, the dust in the dust storage box 24 can be prevented from flowing back into the dust collection box 18. In addition, the filter 28 serves to intercept dust and prevent the dust from re-entering the atmosphere through the exhaust port 26 .
