[0060] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly stipulated and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense.

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0061] like Figure 1 As shown, a lifting robot of this embodiment includes a chassis mechanism 200 and a lifting arm 100 arranged on the chassis mechanism, wherein the lifting arm 100 includes a fixed arm 120 fixedly arranged on the chassis mechanism and a movable arm 110 slidably connected to the fixed arm along the length direction. A first guide mechanism adapted to each other is arranged between the movable arm 110 and the fixed arm 120. Preferably, in this embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the first guide mechanism includes a first guide rail 1110 disposed on the movable arm and a guide groove disposed on the fixed arm and adapted to the first guide rail 1110 .

[0062] like Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the lifting arm 100 is provided with a tool table 111 which is slidably connected to the movable arm 110 along the length direction, and a second guide mechanism which is adapted to each other is provided between the tool table 111 and the movable arm 110. Preferably, in this embodiment, the second guide mechanism includes a second guide rail 112 fixedly provided on the movable arm 110 and a second guide groove 1131 provided on the tool table bracket 113 and adapted to the second guide rail 112, wherein the tool table 111 is installed on the tool table bracket 113.

[0063] In this embodiment, the initial position of the tool table 111 when it rises one level is as follows: Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1 , the movable arm 110 is at the lowest position and is within the height range of the fixed arm 120, and the tool table 111 is located at the lower end of the movable arm 110. The end position of the tool table 111 after the first level of ascent is as shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, the position of the movable arm 110 does not change, and the tool table 111 moves from the lowest position to the highest position.

[0064] In this embodiment, the structural principle of the one-stage lifting of the tool table 111 is as follows Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, the lifting arm 100 further includes a primary screw 114, a primary screw nut 115 and a primary traction mechanism. The primary screw 114 is rotationally connected in the fixed arm 120, and the specific rotational connection method belongs to the conventional connection method in the field, for example, a rotational active connection with the fixed arm through a bearing, which is not limited in this embodiment. The primary screw 114 is adapted to be connected with a primary screw nut 115, and a third guide mechanism adapted to each other is provided between the primary screw nut 115 and the fixed arm. Specifically in this embodiment, as a preference, the third guide mechanism includes a third guide rail 116 fixedly provided in the fixed arm 120 and a guide groove provided on the primary screw nut 115 and adapted to the third guide rail 116.

[0065] In this embodiment, the driving mechanism drives the primary screw 114 to rotate, which drives the primary screw nut 115 to move linearly, and the primary screw nut 115 is pulled up and down by the primary traction mechanism to pull the tool platform 111.

[0066] In this embodiment, a preferred primary traction mechanism, such as Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, it includes a first transmission wheel 118, a second transmission wheel 119 and a first flexible transmission member 117. The first transmission wheel 118 is arranged on the top of the movable arm 110, the second transmission wheel 119 is arranged on the primary screw nut 115, one end of the first flexible transmission member 117 is fixedly connected to the tool table bracket 113, and the other end is fixed in the fixed arm 120 after passing through the first transmission wheel 118 and the second transmission wheel 119 in sequence.

[0067] In this embodiment, the structure of the first-level traction mechanism is such that the travel and lifting speed of the tool platform 111 are twice that of the first-level screw nut 115, so that the tool platform can be lifted at twice the speed. In addition, during the first-level lifting of the tool platform, the total height of the lifting arm remains unchanged.

[0068] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the structural form of the first flexible transmission member 117 has multiple options in the prior art. For example, when the first flexible transmission member 117 is a synchronous belt, the first transmission wheel 118 and the second transmission wheel 119 are synchronous pulleys adapted to the synchronous belt. When the first flexible transmission member is a chain, the first transmission wheel and the second transmission wheel are sprockets adapted to the chain. When the first flexible transmission member is a rope, the first transmission wheel and the second transmission wheel are rollers adapted to the rope. In short, the present application does not impose a sole restriction on the structural form that can be adopted.

[0069] In this embodiment, Figure 5As shown in FIG. 1 , the initial position of the tool bench 111 after the second-stage ascent is the end position of the first-stage ascent. In this state, the tool bench is located near the upper end of the movable arm 110. During the second-stage ascent, the relative position of the tool bench 111 on the movable arm 110 remains unchanged. The movable arm and the tool bench are lifted as a whole. The end position of the second-stage ascent is shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, the movable arm 110 rises to the upper limit position.

[0070] In this embodiment, the structural principle of the two-stage lifting is as follows Figure 7 As shown, the lifting arm also includes a secondary screw 121, a secondary screw nut 122 and a secondary traction mechanism, wherein the secondary screw 121 is rotatably connected to the fixed arm 120, and the specific rotatable connection method belongs to the conventional connection method in the field, for example, the secondary screw nut 122 is rotatably connected to the fixed arm through a bearing, which is not limited in this embodiment. The secondary screw nut 122 is adapted to be connected to the secondary screw 121, and a fourth guide mechanism adapted to each other is provided between the secondary screw nut 122 and the fixed arm, and the fourth guide mechanism includes a fourth guide rail 123 fixedly provided in the fixed arm and a guide groove provided on the secondary screw nut 122 and adapted to the fourth guide rail 123.

[0071] In this embodiment, the driving mechanism drives the secondary screw 121 to rotate, driving the secondary screw nut 122 to move linearly, and the secondary screw nut 122 pulls the movable arm up and down through the secondary traction mechanism.

[0072] In this embodiment, a preferred secondary traction mechanism, such as Figure 7 As shown, it includes a second flexible transmission member 126, a third transmission wheel 124 and a fourth transmission wheel 125. Among them, the third transmission wheel 124 is arranged on the top of the fixed arm 120, the fourth transmission wheel 125 is arranged on the secondary screw nut 122, one end of the second flexible transmission member 126 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the movable arm 110 through a fixing clamp 1 1261, and the other end is fixed in the fixed arm 120 through a fixing clamp 2 1262 after winding around the third transmission wheel 124 and the fourth transmission wheel 125 in sequence.

[0073] In this embodiment, the structural form of the secondary traction mechanism is similar to that of the primary traction mechanism, and the travel and lifting speed of the movable arm 110 are twice that of the secondary screw nut 122, so that the movable arm can be lifted and lowered at twice the speed. In addition, during the secondary lifting process, the rotation direction of the primary screw is opposite to that during the primary lifting process. Based on the structural form of the primary traction mechanism, during the lifting process of the movable arm, the relative position of the tool table on the movable arm remains unchanged, that is, during the secondary lifting process, the movable arm and the tool table are lifted and lowered as a whole.

[0074] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the structural form of the second flexible transmission member is similar to that of the first flexible transmission member, and there are multiple options in the prior art. For example, when the second flexible transmission member is a synchronous belt, the third transmission wheel and the fourth transmission wheel are synchronous pulleys adapted to the synchronous belt. When the second flexible transmission member is a chain, the third transmission wheel and the fourth transmission wheel are sprockets adapted to the chain. When the second flexible transmission member is a rope, the third transmission wheel and the fourth transmission wheel are rollers adapted to the rope. In short, the present application does not impose a single restriction on the structural form that can be adopted.

[0075] The lifting arm of this embodiment works as follows: during the first level of ascent of the tool platform, the first level screw rotates forward and the second level screw does not rotate; during the second level of ascent of the tool platform, the second level screw rotates forward and the first level screw rotates reversely; during the second level of descent of the tool platform, the second level screw rotates reversely and the first level screw rotates forward; during the first level of descent of the tool platform, the first level screw rotates reversely and the second level screw does not rotate.

[0076] In this embodiment, a preferred driving mechanism, such as Figure 8 , Fig. 9 As shown, it includes a driving motor 10, a driving gear 11, a primary screw gear 12, a secondary screw gear 13 and an electromagnetic clutch 14. The driving gear 11 is connected to the motor shaft of the driving motor 10, the primary screw gear 12 is meshed with the driving gear 11, and the secondary screw gear 13 is meshed with the primary screw gear 12, so that the rotation directions of the secondary screw gear 13 and the primary screw gear 12 are always opposite.

[0077] In this embodiment, the primary screw gear 12 is coaxially fixedly connected with the primary screw 114, and the secondary screw gear 13 is connected with the secondary screw 121 through the electromagnetic clutch 14. Fig. 9 As shown, the electromagnetic clutch 14 includes a fixed base 143, a first rotating layer 141 fixedly connected to the secondary screw gear 13 through a key 15, and a second rotating layer 142 fixedly connected to the secondary screw gear 13. When the electromagnetic clutch is not powered, there is no friction between the first rotating layer and the second rotating layer, and the movement of the first rotating layer will not drive the second rotating layer. When the electromagnetic clutch is powered, the friction between the first rotating layer and the second rotating layer becomes larger, and the first rotating layer and the second rotating layer rotate as a whole.

[0078] Correspondingly, in the driving mechanism of this embodiment, during the first level of ascent of the tool bench, the driving motor drives the first level screw gear to drive the first level screw to rotate forward, and the second level screw gear rotates reversely. At this time, the electromagnetic clutch is not powered on, and the second level screw does not rotate. During the second level of ascent of the tool bench, the driving motor drives the first level screw gear to drive the first level screw to rotate reversely, the electromagnetic clutch is powered on, and the second level screw gear drives the second level screw to rotate forward. During the second level of descent of the tool bench, the driving motor drives the first level screw gear to drive the first level screw to rotate forward, the electromagnetic clutch is powered on, and the second level screw gear drives the second level screw to rotate reversely. During the first level of descent of the tool bench, the driving motor drives the first level screw gear to drive the first level screw to rotate reversely, the electromagnetic clutch is powered off, the second level screw gear rotates forward, and the second level screw does not rotate.

[0079] In this embodiment, the advantage of the driving mechanism is that the first-level lifting and second-level lifting processes of the tool table can be independently controlled by one driving motor, and the design is ingenious, the structure is simple, and the cost is lower.

[0080] The chassis mechanism 200 of this embodiment is as follows: Fig.10 As shown, it includes a chassis 210 and four groups of walking mechanisms arranged on the chassis, wherein the lifting arm 100 is arranged on the chassis 210.

Through the linkage of the walking drive module and the steering module, it can autonomously realize the movements such as turning in place, walking forward, walking backward, left translation and right translation, so as to ensure that the lifting robot can complete various walking in a complex environment and ensure the ability to adapt to various complex environments.

Preferably, the travel drive motor 240 adopts a servo reduction motor.

In addition, a shock-absorbing spring 250 is provided between the support beam and the walking drive module and is sleeved on the outside of the sleeve 251 and the guide shaft 252.

[0084] In this embodiment, the floating shock-absorbing structure formed by the walking drive module, the support beam and the shock-absorbing spring enables the walking wheels to achieve floating shock-absorbing when moving, assisting the lifting robot to walk on rough roads, ensuring that the walking wheels provide stable power, and enhancing the overall stability of the lifting robot during operation.

[0085] In this embodiment, the steering module is installed on the upper part of the bracket 211 and the output end of the steering module is connected to the upper end of the support beam 212. Preferably, in this embodiment, the steering module includes a rotating shaft 232 fixedly connected to the upper end of the support beam and a steering motor 230 for driving the rotating shaft to rotate.
