[0037] As Figures 7 - 9 shown, a medical delivery robot with adjustable height according to the present invention is based on Embodiment 1;

[0038] The driving component 4 includes a bottom plate 41. The inner side of the bottom plate 41 is fixedly connected to the side of the base 51. A driving wheel 42 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the bottom plate 41. A cleaning mechanism 43 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the bottom plate 41 near the driving wheel 42. The center of the bottom of the bottom plate 41 is rotatably connected to a rotating mechanism 44. The bottom plate 41 is made of high-strength aluminum alloy material, which has the characteristics of light weight and firmness. Four rubber driving wheels 42 are equipped at the bottom of the bottom plate 41. Each driving wheel 42 is driven by an independent motor and can realize omnidirectional movement, so as to flexibly shuttle in the complex corridor and room layout of the hospital. At the same time, a large-capacity lithium battery is installed inside the bottom plate 41 to provide lasting power support for the operation of the robot main body 1 and meet the long-term delivery needs of the hospital. When the driving wheel 42 works, at the same time, a cleaning mechanism 43 is arranged on the side of the bottom plate 41 near the driving wheel 42, so that when the driving wheel 42 rotates, the cleaning mechanism 43 can clean the driving wheel 42;

[0039] The cleaning mechanism 43 includes a fixed block 431 and a fixed bracket 432. The side of the fixed block 431 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the bottom plate 41, and the side of the fixed bracket 432 is slidably connected to the inner side of the bottom plate 41. A connecting rod 433 is slidably connected to one side of the fixed block 431 close to the driving wheel 42.

A cleaning plate 435 is fixedly connected to the side of the fixed bracket 432 away from the fixed block 431. A sliding rod 436 is slidably connected to the inside of the fixed bracket 432. A third spring 4310 is sleeved on the sliding rod 436. One end of the third spring 4310 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 437, and the other end of the third spring 4310 is fixedly connected to the inside of the fixed bracket 432. One end of the sliding rod 436 away from the fixed bracket 432 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 437. Both sides of the connecting plate 437 are slidably connected to the inside of the fixed bracket 432. A roller 438 is rotatably connected to one side of the connecting plate 437. A scraping plate 439 is fixedly connected to the side of the connecting plate 437 away from the roller 438; when the driving wheel 42 rotates and moves, when the driving wheel 42 contacts and moves with the cleaning plate 435 on the fixed bracket 432, the cleaning plate 435 can scrape off the impurities attached to the driving wheel 42. At the same time, by arranging the scraping plate 439 inside the connecting frame 64, it is avoided that when moving for a long time, viscous substances will adhere to the grooves on the side of the driving wheel 42 and continuously adhere to the driving wheel 42. When the scraping plate 439 contacts and cleans the driving wheel 42, when the extrusion force between the scraping plate 439 and the driving wheel 42 is greater than the tensile force of the third spring 4310, the sliding rod 436 drives the scraping plate 439 to move inside the fixed bracket 432. At the same time, through the buffering work of the third spring 4310, it is avoided that the extrusion force between the scraping plate 439 and the driving wheel 42 is too large, which will cause extrusion damage to the side of the driving wheel 42. At the same time, by arranging the roller 438 on the side of the connecting plate 437 away from the scraping plate 439, the roller 438 abuts and rotates with the side of the driving wheel 42, so as to avoid that when the driving wheel 42 moves, the surface of the driving wheel 42 will adhere to the water stains on the ground, resulting in a slipping phenomenon when the driving wheel 42 moves;

A grasping rod 444 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the rotating groove 443. Grasping grooves 445 are formed on both sides of the grasping rod 444. When the driving wheel 42 drives the main body 1 to move, the second motor 446 is simultaneously turned on. The output end of the second motor 446 drives the rotating block 441 to rotate at the bottom of the bottom plate 41, so that the rotating block 441 drives the rotating rod 442 to rotate on the bottom plate 41. When the driving wheel 42 drives the main body 1 to move, there may be plastic bags randomly discarded by patients on the hospital floor and flocculent dust gathered on the floor. The plastic bags may interfere with the sensors of the robot main body 1. When the driving wheel 42 passes by, the plastic bags may be wound around the driving wheel 42, causing the driving wheel 42 to stop rotating, and thus causing the main body 1 to tip over. When the rotating rod 442 rotates following the rotating block 441, due to the action of centrifugal force, the grasping rod 444 rotates in the rotating groove 443. At the same time, grasping grooves 445 are formed at both ends of the grasping rod 444, so as to perform a rotating grasping operation on the plastic bags floating on the ground, thus avoiding the phenomenon that the plastic bags and flocculent dust strips floating on the ground will be wound around the driving wheel 42 when the driving wheel 42 moves, and further interfering with the movement of the driving wheel 42;

[0041] The specific working process is as follows:

[0042] The robot body 1 adopts a method that combines lidar navigation and visual navigation. The lidar is installed on the top of the body 1 and can quickly scan the surrounding environment to construct a high-precision map model, providing accurate position information and navigation path planning for the robot body 1. The visual navigation system consists of multiple cameras, which are distributed around the front, back, left, and right of the body 1. The image information collected by the cameras is processed by the image recognition algorithm in the intelligent control module to identify landmark objects such as corridors, ward doors, and elevators, assisting the lidar navigation to improve the accuracy and reliability of navigation. For example, when the lidar has a navigation deviation due to strong light interference or local occlusion, the visual navigation system can correct it in a timely manner to ensure that the robot body 1 travels along the correct path. The obstacle avoidance sensor group composed of ultrasonic sensors and infrared sensors is distributed around the body of the robot body 1. When the sensors detect an obstacle ahead, the intelligent control module calculates the best obstacle avoidance strategy based on information such as the distance, size, and moving speed of the obstacle. For example, if the obstacle is far away and stationary, the robot will plan a detour path in advance; if the obstacle is close and approaching, the robot will immediately decelerate and brake urgently, waiting for the obstacle to leave or choosing other feasible obstacle avoidance directions;

[0043] The adjustment component 5 drives the body 1 to perform height lifting work. By placing the medicine test tube in the placement component 6, after closing the closing door 3, the driving component 4 drives the body 1 to perform medical delivery work;

[0044] When the robot arrives near the delivery destination, it identifies the height characteristics of the docking device through the visual navigation system and calculates the height to be adjusted in combination with the data of the laser distance sensor. The intelligent control module sends a control command to the electric lifting column 52 of the height adjustment mechanism to start the electric lifting column 52 for height adjustment. During the adjustment process, it continuously receives the feedback information of the laser distance sensor, inertial measurement unit, and tilt sensor, and adjusts the motion state of the electric lifting column 52 in real time to ensure smooth rising or falling to the target height, and the robot body 1 always maintains balance and stability, so as to perform appropriate adjustment work according to different height usage scenarios;

[0045] After opening the closing door 3, by operating the control panel 2, a command is issued to turn on the first motor 63. The output end of the first motor 63 drives the lead screw 62 to rotate inside the placement rack 61, so that the lead screw 62 drives the connecting frame 64 to move inside the placement rack 61, and then the connecting frame 64 drives the placement plate 67 to continuously slide on the limiting plate 65 until the limiting plate 65 disengages from the inside of the body 1, and then the sampling reagent tube is placed on the buffer mechanism 66. When the body 1 drives the sampling reagent tube to move, it can avoid vibrations, shakes, etc. during the movement of the robot body 1;

[0046] It is placed in two buffer housings 661 through a test tube. By arranging rubber blocks 662 on the inner side of the buffer housings 661, the rubber blocks 662 are in contact with the side surface of the sampling reagent tube, so as to avoid squeezing damage to the side surface of the sampling reagent tube when the sampling reagent tube is limited and fixed. At the same time, when the sampling reagent tube is transported, when there are foreign objects on the ground when the main body 1 moves and bumps occur, the connecting shaft 663 drives the slider 665 to slide inside the placement plate 67. At the same time, through the buffering work of the first spring 664, it is avoided that the main body 1 bumps during the transportation of the test tube, so as to cause squeezing damage to the sampling reagent tube;

[0047] The bottom plate 41 is made of high-strength aluminum alloy material, with the characteristics of light weight and firmness. Four rubber drive wheels 42 are equipped at the bottom of the bottom plate 41. Each drive wheel 42 is driven by an independent motor and can achieve omnidirectional movement, so as to flexibly shuttle in the complex corridor and room layout of the hospital. At the same time, a large-capacity lithium battery is installed inside the bottom plate 41 to provide lasting power support for the operation of the robot main body 1 and meet the long-term distribution needs of the hospital. When the drive wheels 42 are working, a cleaning mechanism 43 is arranged on one side of the bottom plate 41 close to the drive wheels 42, so that the cleaning mechanism 43 can clean the drive wheels 42 when the drive wheels 42 rotate;

[0048] When the drive wheels 42 rotate and move, when the drive wheels 42 come into contact with and move on the cleaning plate 435 on the fixed frame 432, the cleaning plate 435 can scrape off the impurities attached to the drive wheels 42. At the same time, a scraping plate 439 is arranged inside the connecting frame 64, so as to avoid that viscous substances adhere to the grooves on the side surface of the drive wheels 42 during long-term movement and continue to adhere to the drive wheels 42. When the scraping plate 439 comes into contact with and cleans the drive wheels 42, when the extrusion force between the scraping plate 439 and the drive wheels 42 is greater than the tensile force of the third spring 4310, the sliding rod 436 drives the scraping plate 439 to move inside the fixed frame 432. At the same time, through the buffering work of the third spring 4310, it is avoided that the extrusion force between the scraping plate 439 and the drive wheels 42 is too large, which will cause extrusion damage to the side surface of the drive wheels 42. At the same time, a roller 438 is arranged on the side of the connecting plate 437 away from the scraping plate 439, so that the roller 438 is in contact with and rotates against the side surface of the drive wheels 42, so as to avoid that the surface of the drive wheels 42 adheres to the water stains on the ground when the drive wheels 42 move, resulting in a slipping phenomenon when the drive wheels 42 move;

[0049] When the driving wheel 42 drives the main body 1 to move, the second motor 446 is turned on at the same time. The output end of the second motor 446 drives the rotating block 441 to rotate at the bottom of the bottom plate 41, so that the rotating block 441 drives the rotating rod 442 to rotate on the bottom plate 41. When the driving wheel 42 drives the main body 1 to move, there may be plastic bags randomly discarded by patients on the ground of the hospital, as well as flocculent dust gathered on the ground. The plastic bags may interfere with the sensors of the robot main body 1. When the driving wheel 42 passes by, the plastic belt may wind and wrap around the driving wheel 42, causing the driving wheel 42 to stop rotating, and thus causing the main body 1 to topple. When the rotating rod 442 rotates following the rotating block 441, due to the action of centrifugal force, the grasping rod 444 rotates in the rotating groove 443. At the same time, grasping grooves 445 are provided at both ends of the grasping rod 444, so as to perform the rotating grasping work on the plastic bags floating on the ground, thus avoiding the phenomenon that the plastic bags and flocculent dust strips floating on the ground will wind around the driving wheel 42 when the driving wheel 42 moves, and further interfering with the moving work of the driving wheel 42.
