[0055] The present invention is a UWB in - cabinet self - following intelligent maintenance trolley for a bionic operation robot. A set of UWB wireless intelligent following system 2 is provided on the vehicle body 1 of the trolley. The first UWB base station 21 and the second UWB base station 22 of the UWB wireless intelligent following system 2 are both wirelessly communicatively connected to the positioning tag 23. Both the first UWB base station 21 and the second UWB base station 22 are connected to a main controller, and the main controller is connected to the motor driver 66 of the driving device 6. Wireless signal receivers and transmitters are installed on both the first UWB base station 21 and the second UWB base station 22, and wire signal receivers and transmitters are also installed on the positioning tag 23.

The integrated boxes 24 can be placed together for centralized management and are not easily damaged. When in use, the operator toggles the socket opening and closing handle 26, and the connection slot 251 is opened. The operator inserts the connection contact 241 of the integrated box 24 into the connection slot 251, and then releases the socket opening and closing handle 26, so that the electrical contact piece in the connection slot 251 is electrically connected to the connection contact 241, and the connection contact 241 is completely inserted into the connection slot 251. The electrical contact piece clamps the connection contact 241, so that the integrated box 24 will not break away from the ZIF socket 25. In addition, the UWB wireless intelligent following system 2 is respectively installed on the maintenance trolleys with different functions, and the UWB wireless intelligent following system 2 is made into a module that can be quickly plugged and unplugged. This not only enables centralized management of the integrated box 24, making the integrated box 24 not need to be fixedly installed on the trolley and not easily damaged, but also can realize the time-sharing sharing following function of multiple maintenance trolleys with different functions. One operator can control and process multiple trolleys to work together, greatly improving the work efficiency. Embodiment 2
