Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of robots, and specifically refers to a waterproof and dustproof structure of a quadruped robot with a multi-layer composite protective structure. Background Art
[0002] With the development of artificial intelligence technology, intelligent robots are increasingly widely used in people's lives. Quadruped robots are often seen in life. When quadruped robots are exercising indoors or outdoors, they are inevitably affected by dust and water from the external environment. Existing quadruped robots mainly rely on layered composite protective structures to achieve waterproof and dustproof. The design of layered composite protective structures leads to a complex manufacturing process, increases production difficulty and time cost, and affects overall production efficiency. Due to the use of multi-layer materials, the overall weight of the robot increases, which affects its maneuverability and endurance, especially in application scenarios that require long-term operation. The use of multiple materials and complex structure designs has led to a significant increase in production costs, limiting the market competitiveness of the technology. Multi-layer structures make maintenance and repair more difficult in the event of damage, especially when multiple layers need to be disassembled and reassembled. Multi-layer materials affect the dissipation of heat, causing internal components to overheat, thereby affecting the performance and life of the robot. There is a problem of uneven sealing performance at the seams and interfaces of the multi-layer structure, resulting in a reduction in the waterproof and dustproof effect. In extreme environments (such as high temperature, high humidity or low temperature, etc.), the performance of multi-layer materials will be affected, reducing the protective effect. The design of multi-layer composite structures requires comprehensive consideration of the characteristics of different materials. The optimization design process is relatively complicated, which increases the difficulty of research and development. Different materials will age during long-term use, resulting in a decrease in protective performance and affecting the reliability of the robot. The multi-layer structure causes uneven weight distribution of the robot body, affecting its center of gravity stability and thus affecting its motion performance. Therefore, a new type of multi-layer composite protective structure for quadruped robots is urgently needed to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
[0003] In order to solve the above-mentioned existing problems, the present invention provides a waterproof and dustproof structure of a quadruped robot with a multi-layer composite protective structure, in which the selected material should have good high and low temperature resistance to ensure that it will not deform in a high temperature environment and will not crack in a low temperature environment. Hot pressing technology is adopted to ensure that there are no gaps in the joints between the layers. Dust covers are arranged at the joints and seams to prevent dust and small particles from entering the interior. Heat dissipation channels are designed to ensure that the heat of internal components can be effectively dissipated when working under high load to prevent overheating.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: The waterproof and dustproof structure of the quadruped robot with a multi-layer composite protection structure of the present invention includes a fuselage body, a tail and a head. The tail and the head are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the fuselage body. The fuselage body includes an upper fuselage cover, a lower fuselage cover and a tail fuselage cover. The upper fuselage cover is connected to the lower fuselage cover. The tail fuselage cover is arranged at one end of the fuselage body close to the tail, and the tail fuselage cover is respectively connected to the upper fuselage cover and the lower fuselage cover. Connecting plates are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the fuselage body, and the connecting plates are respectively connected to the fuselage body and the tail, and the fuselage body and the head.
[0005] Further, a fuselage frame is arranged inside the fuselage body, and the fuselage frame is arranged between the upper fuselage cover and the lower fuselage cover.

[0007] Further, an upper fuselage support plate is arranged inside the upper end of the fuselage body, and the upper fuselage support plate is arranged on one side of the fuselage frame close to the upper fuselage cover.
[0008] Further, a lower fuselage support plate is arranged inside the lower end of the fuselage body, and the lower fuselage support plate is arranged on one side of the fuselage frame close to the lower fuselage cover.
[0009] Preferably, the upper fuselage cover, the lower fuselage cover and the tail fuselage cover are made of polycarbonate material, which has excellent impact resistance and ultraviolet resistance, and can effectively resist the intrusion of external moisture and dust; the fuselage frame, the upper fuselage support plate and the lower fuselage support plate are made of lightweight aluminum alloy or carbon fiber composite material, which provides structural strength while keeping the fuselage lightweight and ensures the flexibility of the robot in a complex environment; a waterproof breathable membrane is arranged inside the fuselage housing, which allows internal moisture to escape while preventing water ingress, and prevents internal components from being damaged due to moisture.
[0010] The beneficial effects achieved by the present invention with the above structure are as follows: For the waterproof and dustproof structure of the quadruped robot with the multi-layer composite protection structure proposed in this solution, the selected materials should have good high-temperature and low-temperature resistance performance to ensure no deformation in high-temperature environments and no brittle fracture in low-temperature environments. The hot pressing technology is used to ensure that there are no gaps at the joints between the layers. Dust covers are arranged at the joints and seams to prevent dust and small particles from entering the interior. Heat dissipation channels are designed to ensure that the heat of internal components can be effectively dissipated during high-load operation, preventing overheating.
