[0061] The purpose, features and advantages of the present invention will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0062] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0065] In existing technologies, spatial adaptability of robots has become a key performance indicator, especially in compact urban living spaces and cramped industrial environments. Currently, even when folded, robots still occupy a large space, often requiring larger workspaces and storage areas. This severely limits the deployment and efficiency of robots in space-constrained environments.
[0066] The present invention provides a robot.
[0067] See also Figures 1 to 20 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the robot includes: a head structure 1000; a trunk structure 2000, a robotic arm 4000 and a walking structure 3000; wherein the trunk structure 2000 includes a main body 2100 and a plurality of folding units connected in sequence, and adjacent folding units can be rotated and folded, so that the trunk structure 2000 has a folded state and an extended state. In the extended state, Figure 3 As shown, the folding rotation axes of adjacent folding units are staggered on opposite sides of the central axis of the main body 2100. In the folded state, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, multiple folding units are stacked, and the main body 2100 is connected to the head structure 1000 and the folding units respectively; mechanical arms 4000 are provided on both sides of the main body 2100; and the walking structure 3000 is connected to the folding unit away from the main body 2100.
[0068] In this embodiment, a camera unit is integrated into the head structure 1000 for exchanging information with the outside world. The head structure 1000 is connected to one end of the trunk 2100, and the other end of the trunk 2100 is connected to the folding unit. The end of the folding unit facing away from the trunk 2100 is connected to the walking structure 3000, wherein the walking structure 3000 is used to provide a driving force for the movement of the robot. It can adopt a structure for walking with two legs, a structure for walking with drive wheels 3220, or other structures that can achieve movement, which are not limited in this embodiment. The folding state provided in this embodiment can also include the folding of the mechanical arm 4000. There are mechanical arms 4000 on both sides of the trunk 2100. The mechanical arms 4000 can be turned, bent, and rotated to achieve different functions.
[0069] The technical solution of the present invention enables the trunk structure 2000 to have a folded state and an extended state by rotating and folding multiple folding units connected in sequence. In the folded state, the folding units are stacked in sequence, and the folding rotation axes of adjacent driving units 5000 are staggered on opposite sides of the central axis of the main body 2100. In this way, when folding, the folding rotation axes between the multiple folding units will not interfere with the stacking and occupy the folding space, and can achieve tight folding and occupy less space, so as to facilitate the deployment and operation of the robot in a space-constrained environment.
[0070] In one embodiment, each folding unit includes a connecting frame 4610 and a driving unit 5000. The driving unit 5000 includes a driving shaft and a power member 5100. The power member 5100 is connected to the driving shaft and drives the driving shaft to rotate. The driving shaft is connected to the connecting frame 4610. The driving shaft rotates to drive the connecting frame 4610 to rotate. The power member 5100 is fixedly connected to the connecting member of the adjacent folding unit.
[0071] In this embodiment, multiple folding units are connected in sequence, and adjacent folding units can be rotated and folded to accommodate different environments or applications. It is understood that each folding unit is provided with a drive unit 5000 that provides a driving force for rotation and folding. The drive unit 5000 can be a motor structure, a cylinder structure, or other power structure, which is not limited in this embodiment. It should be noted that an auxiliary component 2600 is provided between each adjacent folding unit to assist in rotation.
[0072] refer to Figures 3 to 7 In one embodiment, the trunk structure 2000 further includes an auxiliary component 2600, which includes an elastic member 2610. One end of the elastic member 2610 is connected to a folding unit, and the other end is used to connect to another adjacent folding unit. When the trunk structure 2000 switches from the extended state to the folded state, the elastic member 2610 is stretched, so that the elastic member 2610 generates a driving force to drive the two adjacent folding units to reset.
[0073] Taking two adjacent folding units as an example, in a specific implementation, one end of the elastic member 2610 is connected to one of the folding units, and the other end is connected to the other folding unit. When the two folding units fold, one or both ends of the elastic member 2610 are driven to move, changing the original position or state of the elastic member 2610, causing the elastic member 2610 to be stretched. In this way, the elastic member 2610 generates an elastic driving force and has a tendency to drive the two folding units to extend. At the initial moment of extension of the two folding units, the elastic drive of the elastic member 2610 provides an auxiliary driving force for extension and reset, thereby reducing the instantaneous pressure of the drive unit 5000. The elastic member 2610 can be a long strip structure with an elastic material or a spring. In a specific implementation, the drive unit 5000 is connected to the connecting frame 4610 and drives the connecting frame 4610 to rotate and fold, wherein the drive unit 5000 is fixed to the adjacent connecting frame 4610. In this embodiment, again taking two adjacent folding units as an example, specifically, the power member 5100 of one folding unit is fixed to the connecting frame 4610 of the other folding unit. A drive shaft is connected to the connecting frame 4610 of the folding unit to drive the connecting frame 4610 to rotate about the drive shaft and fold relative to the other connecting frame 4610. The power member 5100 can be a motor structure. When the motor drives the connecting frame 4610 to switch from a folded state to an extended state, the motor structure is subjected to a significant instantaneous pressure. The auxiliary assembly 2600 provides an extension driving force to reduce the pressure on the motor structure, thereby protecting the motor structure and improving its service life. When multiple folding units rotate and fold, the elastic member 2610 is stretched and has a tendency to drive the folding units to reset. When multiple folding units switch from a folded state to an extended state, an auxiliary driving force is provided to the folding units at the moment of extension, reducing the instantaneous pressure on the folding units and improving their service life.
[0074] In one embodiment, the auxiliary component 2600 also includes a guide plate 2620 and a connecting rope (not shown in the figure). The guide plate 2620 is arranged in a folding unit. One end of the connecting rope is connected to a folding unit, and the other end is connected to the elastic member 2610. When the trunk structure 2000 switches from the extended state to the folded state, the connecting rope bends along the guide plate 2620 and pulls the elastic member 2610.
[0075] In this embodiment, in two adjacent folding units, the guide plate 2620 and one end of the connecting rope are fixed to one of the folding units, and the other end of the connecting rope is connected to the elastic member 2610. In this way, the elastic member 2610 can be pulled by the connecting rope. When a folding unit is rotated and folded, one end of the connecting rope changes position with the rotation of the folding unit and is simultaneously wrapped around the guide plate 2620, thereby enabling the connecting rope to pull the elastic member 2610, causing the elastic member 2610 to be stretched and store energy.
[0076] In one embodiment, auxiliary assembly 2600 further includes a fixing post 2630, which is fixedly mounted on the folding unit. The end of the connecting rope facing away from the elastic member 2610 is connected to the fixing post 2630. In a specific implementation, one end of the connecting rope is fixedly wrapped around the fixing post 2630. The fixing post 2630 and the guide plate 2620 are located in the same folding unit, and the fixing post 2630 is positioned toward one end of the guide plate 2620 to ensure that the connecting rope can bend along the guide plate 2620.
[0077] In one embodiment, the auxiliary unit further includes a protective plate 2670, which is disposed on the folding unit and defines a cavity with the outer wall of the folding unit for accommodating the elastic member 2610. In this embodiment, the extension direction of the protective plate 2670 is consistent with the extension direction of the elastic member 2610. The protective plate 2670 is arranged in an arc shape to form a cavity between the protective plate 2670 and the folding unit. The elastic member 2610 is accommodated in the cavity to protect the elastic member 2610 from interference. It is understood that the connecting rope extends out of the cavity to connect adjacent folding units.
[0078] In one embodiment, the auxiliary component 2600 also includes a fixed block 2660, a hook 2640 and an adjusting member 2650. The fixed block 2660 is fixedly connected to the folding unit. One end of the adjusting member 2650 passes through the fixed block 2660 and is rotatably connected to the hook 2640. A guide groove 2700 is provided on the side wall of the folding unit. The hook 2640 is slidably connected to the guide groove 2700 and is locked to the folding unit by bolts.
[0079] The end of the elastic member 2610 facing away from the connecting rope is fixed to the folding unit via a fixing block 2660 and a hook 2640. In this embodiment, again taking two adjacent folding units as an example, the elastic member 2610 and the connecting rope are respectively fixed to different adjacent folding units. In a specific implementation, the fixing block 2660 is fixed to the folding unit via screws or pins, and the adjusting member 2650 moves through the fixing block 2660 and is screwed onto the hook 2640. By rotating the adjusting member 2650, the position of the hook 2640 on the adjusting member 2650 can be adjusted to accommodate different elastic members 2610 or different size requirements. The adjusting member 2650 is a screw or bolt, etc., which is not limited in this embodiment. Furthermore, to improve the stability of the hook 2640 and prevent it from rotating with the adjusting member 2650 during rotation, in this embodiment, a guide slot 2700 is further defined on the sidewall of the folding unit. The length of the guide slot 2700 aligns with the extension direction of the adjusting member 2650. One end of the hook 2640 is located within the guide slot 2700 and can be moved along the guide slot 2700 to facilitate position adjustment. In a specific implementation, the hook 2640 is further fastened to the folding unit via a bolt. Specifically, the bolt extends from the side of the folding unit facing away from the guide slot 2700 into the guide slot 2700 and connects to the hook 2640.
[0080] In one embodiment, two groups of auxiliary structures are provided, and the two groups of auxiliary structures are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the folding unit. In a specific implementation process, the two groups of auxiliary structures are symmetrically arranged so that the forces on the two opposite sides of the folding unit are balanced, ensuring smooth rotation of the folding rotation axis.
[0081] In one embodiment, multiple folding units are divided into three groups, one of which is configured as a first folding portion 2200, another group is configured as a second folding portion 2300, and another group is configured as a third folding portion 2400. In the folded state, the first folding portion 2200, the second folding portion 2300 and the third folding portion 2400 are stacked. In the extended state, the folding rotation axes of adjacent driving units 5000 are staggered and located on opposite sides of the central axis of the main body 2100. The first folding portion 2200 is used to connect the main body 2100, and the third folding portion 2400 is arranged between the first folding portion 2200 and the second folding portion 2300.
[0082] It should be noted that this embodiment describes the multiple folding units as being divided into three types of folding sections. According to the above, in the further definition of the multiple folding units, the multiple folding units are configured into at least three groups, one of which is the first folding section 2200, another group is the second folding section 2300, and another group is the third folding section 2400. Specifically, the folding units include one first folding section 2200, one second folding section 2300, and at least one third folding section 2400.
[0083] In this embodiment, the driving shaft of the first folding portion 2200 is configured as the first driving shaft 2210, the connecting frame 4610 is configured as the first connecting frame 2220, and the connecting ear is configured as the first connecting ear 2221. Similarly, the driving shaft of the third folding portion 2400 is configured as the third driving shaft 2410, the connecting frame 4610 is configured as the third connecting frame 46102420, and the connecting ear is configured as the third connecting ear 2421. The central axis of the main body 2100 is the central axis O of the trunk structure 2000 in the extended state. It can be understood that the folding rotation axis is set close to the outer wall of the trunk structure 2000, with reference to FIG. Figure 6 shown.
[0084] In this embodiment, the third folding portion 2400 is located between the first folding portion 2200 and the second folding portion 2300, that is, from the top of the trunk structure 2000 to the bottom, the main body 2100, the first folding portion 2200, the third folding portion 2400, and the second folding portion 2300 are arranged in order. When folding, the main body 2100 and the first folding portion 2200 rotate relative to the third folding portion 2400, and the third folding portion 2400 rotates relative to the second folding portion 2300. The folding rotation directions of two adjacent drive units 5000 are opposite, thereby achieving stacking. It can be understood that when folding and rotating, the folding rotation axis of the corresponding drive unit 5000 rotates. In a specific implementation, the folding rotation axes of adjacent drive units 5000 are located on opposite sides of the central axis of the main body 2100, and the folding rotation axes are close to the positions near the ends of each folding portion. After folding, a compact stacking arrangement can be achieved without requiring a large space. Of course, it is understandable that any rotation angle can be formed between the first folding portion 2200 and the third folding portion 2400 , and between the third folding portion 2400 and the second folding portion 2300 .
[0085] Among them, there can be multiple third folding sections 2400, and the multiple third folding sections 2400 are arranged in sequence. The third folding section 2400 located at one end is connected to the first folding section 2200, and the third folding section 2400 located at the other end is connected to the second folding section 2300. The other third folding sections 2400 are connected in sequence, and two adjacent third folding sections 2400 can be folded.
[0086] This technical solution adopts the first folding part 2200 to connect the main body 2100, the main body 2100 is connected to the head structure 1000, and the second folding part 2300 is connected to the walking structure 3000. The first folding part 2200, the third folding part 2400, and the second folding part 2300 are arranged in sequence, and the driving unit 5000 is used to drive the three to rotate around the folding rotation axis to achieve folding. In the folded state, the three are stacked in sequence, and the folding rotation axes of adjacent driving units 5000 are staggered on opposite sides of the central axis of the main body 2100. In this way, when folding, the folding rotation axes between the first folding part 2200 and the adjacent third folding part 2400, between the two adjacent third folding parts 2400, and between the third folding part 2400 and the second folding part 2300 will not interfere with the stacking and occupy the folding space, so that tight folding can be achieved and the space occupied is small, so that the robot can be deployed and operated in a space-constrained environment.
[0087] In one embodiment, the driving unit 5000 includes a power member 5100 and a transmission assembly 5200 . The transmission assembly 5200 includes a worm 5210 and a bevel gear 5220 that mesh with each other. The power member 5100 is connected to the worm 5210 and drives the worm 5210 to rotate.
[0088] In a specific implementation, the power element 5100 can be a motor or cylinder, which drives the worm 5210 to rotate. The rotation of the worm 5210 causes the helical gear 5220 to rotate. The helical gear 5220 is fixedly connected to the folding rotation axis, which in turn drives the folding rotation axis to rotate, thereby achieving folding. The folding drive axis is located in one folding section, and the power element 5100 is located in the adjacent folding section. The power element 5100 is used to provide the driving force for folding.
[0089] In addition, the driving unit 5000 further includes a deceleration assembly 5300, which can reduce the high-speed rotation of the power member 5100 to a suitable rotation speed of the first folding part 2200, the second folding part 2300 and the third folding part 2400, and increase the output torque accordingly, so that the components have sufficient power to complete the corresponding actions. Figure 20As shown, reduction assembly 5300 employs a planetary reduction structure. Specifically, the planetary reduction structure includes a first planetary disc 5310, a second planetary disc 5320, three first planetary gears (not shown), three second planetary gears (not shown), a first sun gear (not shown), and a second sun gear (not shown). First planetary disc 5310 is provided with a first output rod and three first input rods on either side, respectively. Second planetary disc 5320 is provided with three second input rods. Each first planetary gear is mounted on a first input rod, and each second planetary gear is mounted on a second input rod. The first sun gear is mounted on the output shaft of the motor and meshes with the three first planetary gears. The second sun gear is mounted on the first output rod and meshes with the three second planetary gears. Transmission assembly 5200 is inserted into second planetary disc 5320. The meshing of the first sun gear with the three first planetary gears, and the meshing of the second sun gear with the three second planetary gears, achieves a two-stage reduction. This multi-stage reduction structure can achieve a large reduction ratio within a small volume, thereby reducing the high-speed rotation of the motor to a lower speed suitable for the movement of the corresponding components, while significantly increasing the output torque. In addition, the planetary reduction structure also includes a protective shell 5330, which is connected to the outer shell of the motor. The first planetary disk 5310, the second planetary disk 5320, the three first planetary gears, the three second planetary gears, the first sun gear, and the second sun gear are all located within the protective shell 5330. The motor is connected to the worm 5210 and drives the worm 5210 to rotate. The rotation of the worm 5210 drives the helical gear 5220 to rotate. The helical gear 5220 is used to output the driving force driven by the drive unit 5000.

[0112] The third driving unit 1600 is provided on the second bracket 1400 and is used to drive the second bracket 1400 to rotate around the third axis. The third driving unit 1600 is also connected to the main body 2100. The first axis and the third axis are parallel and perpendicular to the second axis.
[0113] It should be noted that the head structure 1000 proposed in this embodiment is rotatably mounted on the upper portion of the trunk. Specifically, the top of the trunk is U-shaped, and the two sides of the head structure 1000 are rotatably connected to the trunk. The drive unit provides support for the head structure 1000. In this embodiment, a camera unit is provided within the main body 1100 for exchanging information with the outside world, such as through video or scanning recognition, to achieve the corresponding functions of the robot. This will not be described in detail here.
[0114] In a specific implementation process, the first driving unit 1300 and the main body 1100 are respectively installed on the first bracket 1200, and the first driving unit 1300 drives the main body 1100 to rotate around the first axis and relative to the first bracket 1200, wherein the first rotating shaft 3430 extends in the horizontal direction, and the main body 1100 can scan up and down; the second driving unit 1500 and the first bracket 1200 are respectively installed on the second bracket 1400, and the second driving unit 1500 drives the first bracket 1200 to rotate around the second axis and relative to the second bracket 1400, wherein the second rotating shaft 3430 extends in the horizontal direction, and the main body 1100 can scan up and down; Extending in the vertical direction, the main body 1100 can scan left and right; the second bracket 1400 is connected to the torso, and the third driving unit 1600 is fixed on the second bracket 1400 and fixedly connected to the torso. The third driving unit 1600 drives the second bracket 1400 to rotate along the third axis. The third axis is parallel to the second axis and is located below the second axis. In this way, the rotation of the second bracket 1400 can drive the second bracket 1400 and the main body 1100 to rotate around the third axis, and then the position of the main body 1100 can be adjusted to increase the field of view coverage of the main body 1100 scanning up and down.
[0115] This technical solution adopts the method of providing a camera unit in the main body 1100 for exchanging information with the outside world. The main body 1100 is mounted on a first bracket 1200, and a first driving unit 1300 drives the main body 1100 to rotate about a first axis. The first bracket 1200 is mounted on a second bracket 1400, wherein a second driving unit 1500 is fixed to the second bracket 1400 and drives the first bracket 1200 to drive the first bracket 1200 to rotate along a second axis, with the first axis being perpendicular to the second axis.

Furthermore, a third driving unit 1600 is provided on the second bracket 1400, and the second bracket 1400 is also connected to the torso. The second driving unit 1500 is also connected to the torso and drives the second bracket 1400 to rotate around the third rotation axis 3430, wherein the third rotation axis 3430 is parallel to the first rotation axis 3430. The rotation of the second bracket 1400 simultaneously drives the main body 1100 and the first bracket 1200 to rotate, thereby moving the position of the main body 1100, thereby improving the observation angle of the camera unit, making the viewing angle coverage of the head structure 1000 wider, and improving the applicability of the robot to complex environments.
[0116] Furthermore, the first drive unit 1300, the second drive unit 1500, and the third drive unit 1600 all include a drive unit 5000, which is used to provide rotational driving force. In this embodiment, the drive unit 5000 includes a motor, a reduction assembly 5300, and a transmission assembly 5200. Specifically, the reduction assembly 5300 can reduce the high-speed rotation of the motor to a speed suitable for the main body 1100, the first bracket 1200, and the second bracket 1400, while correspondingly increasing the output torque, so that the components have sufficient power to complete the corresponding action.
[0117] refer to Figure 10 As shown, in one embodiment, the first driving part 1300 also includes a first shell 1310 and a first driving shaft 1320. The first shell 1310 is fixedly connected to the first bracket 1200. The corresponding driving unit 5000 is arranged in the first shell 1310 and is connected to the first driving shaft 1320. The main body 1100 is connected to the driving disk 1110, and one end of the first driving shaft 1320 extends out of the first shell 1310 and is connected to the driving disk 1110.
[0118] In this embodiment, the first housing 1310 is secured to the first bracket 1200 via screws. The bevel gear 5220 of the drive unit 5000 of the first drive unit 1300 is fixedly connected to the first drive shaft 1320. Rotation of the bevel gear 5220 drives the first drive shaft 1320, which is rotatably connected to the first housing 1310 via a bearing. Furthermore, both ends of the first drive shaft 1320 extend out of the first housing 1310. One end is secured by a first locking bolt 1330, while the other end is fixedly connected to the drive disk 1110 to drive the drive disk 1110 for rotation. It will be appreciated that a connecting shaft extends from the drive disk 1110, passes through the first bracket 1200, and is connected to the first drive shaft 1320, such as via a coupling structure. The outer peripheral wall of the connecting shaft is also movably or rotatably connected to the first bracket 1200. The drive disk 1110 is fixedly connected to the main body 1100 via screws or other connecting members.
[0119] refer to Figure 8 As shown, further, a driving disk 1110 is connected to both sides of the main body 1100, and the first bracket 1200 includes a first connecting part 1210 and a second connecting part 1220. There are two first connecting parts 1210, which are respectively rotatably connected to the corresponding driving disk 1110, and the second connecting part 1220 is connected to the second driving part 1500.
[0120] To ensure balanced rotation of the main body 1100, in this embodiment, drive disks 1110 are fixed to opposite sides of the main body 1100. Accordingly, the two first connecting portions 1210 of the first bracket 1200 are rotatably connected to the corresponding drive disks 1110. It is understood that the first bracket 1200 has a U-shaped or V-shaped structure, with the two first connecting portions 1210 disposed opposite each other. The second connecting portion 1220 is located below the first connecting portion 1210 and is configured to cooperate with the second bracket 1400 and connect to the second drive portion 1500.
[0121] refer to Figure 8 As shown, in one embodiment, the second driving part 1500 includes a second shell 1510 and a second driving shaft 1520, the second shell 1510 is fixedly connected to the second bracket 1400, the corresponding driving unit 5000 belongs to the inside of the second shell 1510 and is connected to the second driving shaft 1520, and one end of the second driving shaft 1520 passes through the second bracket 1400 and is connected to the first bracket 1200.
[0122] Specifically, the drive unit 5000 of the second drive unit 1500 is fixed within the second housing 1510. The bevel gear 5220 of the drive unit 5000 is fixedly connected to the second drive shaft 1520. One end of the second drive shaft 1520 extends out of the second housing 1510 and further passes through the second bracket 1400 to connect to the first bracket 1200. In this way, the bevel gear 5220 of the drive unit 5000 rotates, driving the second drive shaft 1520 to rotate and driving the first bracket 1200 to rotate. In a specific implementation, the first bracket 1200 rotates about the second axis, which coincides with the axis of the second drive shaft 1520, so that the main body 1100 can rotate left and right to achieve scanning in different field of view directions. It can be understood that the second connecting portion 1220 of the first bracket 1200 is connected to the second drive unit 1500, and the second housing 1510 is fixed to the second bracket 1400 by screws.
[0123] Furthermore, the second bracket 1400 is provided with a connecting channel, and the second drive shaft 1520 is plugged into the connecting channel. The second drive part 1500 also includes a second locking bolt 1530, one end of which passes through the second bracket 1400 and is locked and connected to the second drive shaft 1520.
[0124] In this embodiment, the second drive shaft 1520 is inserted into the connecting channel, and the second bracket 1400 also has a connecting hole connected to the connecting channel. The second locking bolt 1530 extends from the side of the first bracket 1200 away from the second bracket 1400 through the connecting hole into the connecting channel and locks the second drive shaft 1520, thereby realizing the driving connection between the second drive shaft 1520 and the first bracket 1200 and driving the first bracket 1200 to rotate.
[0125] refer to Figure 9 As shown, in one embodiment, the third driving part 1600 includes a third shell 1610 and a third driving shaft 1620. The third shell 1610 is fixedly connected to the second bracket 1400. The corresponding driving unit 5000 is provided inside the third shell 1610 and is connected to the third driving shaft 1620. One end of the third driving shaft 1620 is rotatably connected to the second bracket 1400, and the other end is fixed to the external torso.
[0126] In this embodiment, it should be noted that the second bracket 1400 can be a U-shaped or V-shaped structure, and includes a third connecting part 1410 and a fourth connecting part 1420, wherein two third connecting parts 1410 are provided and are respectively connected to the torso, and the fourth connecting part 31420 is used to install and fix the second driving part 1500. The third housing 1610 is secured to the second bracket 1400 via screws, specifically located on one of the third connecting portions 1410. A third drive shaft 1620 is fixedly connected to the trunk and rotates relative to the second bracket 1400. This causes the worm gear of the drive unit 5000 of the second drive unit 1500 to rotate, and the helical gear 5220, which meshes with the worm gear, is fixedly connected to the third drive shaft 1620. The third drive shaft 1620 rotates relative to the second bracket 1400, and the third housing 1610 is fixedly connected to the second bracket 1400. This causes the worm gear 5210 to rotate about the helical gear 5220, thereby driving the second housing 1510 to rotate about the third drive shaft 1620, thereby driving the second bracket 1400 to rotate. The third axis coincides with the axis of the third drive shaft 1620, is parallel to the first axis, and is located below the first axis. Rotating the second bracket 1400 thus causes the first bracket 1200 and the main body 1100 to flip, adjusting the position of the main body 1100 and increasing the field of view. Another third connection portion 1410 is rotatably connected to the trunk via the rotating shaft 3430, thereby enabling the second bracket 1400 to rotate relative to the trunk.
[0127] In one embodiment, one end of the third drive shaft 1620 is connected to a fixed block 1630, and the fixed block 1630 is fixedly embedded in the torso. The fixed block 1630 and the third drive shaft 1620 cooperate with each other through matching limit grooves and limit blocks to limit the rotation of the third drive shaft 1620. The third drive shaft 1620 is also locked and fixed to the torso.
[0128] The third drive shaft 1620 is fixed relative to the trunk by a fixing block 1630. In a specific implementation, the trunk has a groove adapted for the fixing block 1630, and the fixing block 1630 is embedded in the groove. The fixing block 1630 is elongated, and the connection with the third drive shaft 1620 is offset from the center to limit the rotation of the third drive shaft 1620. In this embodiment, a limiting groove is defined at one end surface of the third drive shaft 1620, and limiting blocks are formed at other locations. Correspondingly, limiting blocks are provided on one side of the fixing block 1630, forming a limiting groove between the limiting blocks. The limiting block of the third drive shaft 1620 is inserted into the limiting groove of the fixing block 1630, and the limiting block of the fixing block 1630 is adapted to be inserted into the limiting groove of the third drive shaft 1620, thereby connecting the third drive shaft 1620 to the fixing block 1630 and limiting the rotation of the third limiting shaft.

In addition, since the output end of the second drive module 4210 is connected to the first joint assembly 4100, the first joint assembly 4100 drives the second drive module 4210 to rotate along the first central axis, and the fixed end of the second drive module 4210 is connected to the third drive module 4300. The fixed end of 20 is arranged in the first sleeve 4310. Since the fixed end of the second drive module 4210 can rotate along the second center axis compared to the second transmission module 4220, it also drives the third joint assembly 4300 to rotate along the second center axis. At the same time, it also reduces the space occupied by the connection between the second joint assembly 4200 and the third joint assembly 4300, reduces the volume of the robot arm 4000 along the longitudinal arrangement, and facilitates the lightweight structure.

Since the first shell 4110 is fixed on the torso, and the length of the robotic arm 4000 is from the torso toward the wrist assembly, the first drive module 4120 is arranged outside the first shell 4110, which reduces the longitudinal length of the robotic arm 4000 and thereby reduces the occupied space.

Specifically, the fourth joint assembly 4400 includes a second support frame and a third housing, and the fourth transmission module 4420 includes a third worm 5210 and a third worm gear. The second support frame is fixedly connected to the output end of the third drive module 4320, and the second support frame has a second movable cavity.
[0150] The third shell is arranged in the second movable cavity, and the third shell has a third chamber and a fourth chamber connected to the third chamber. The third worm gear is arranged in the third chamber and is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the third chamber, and both ends of the third worm gear are fixedly connected to the second support frame. The third worm 5210 is arranged in the fourth chamber and is rotatably connected to the fourth chamber. The third worm 5210 is engaged with the third worm gear.

The fifth joint assembly 4500 includes a second sleeve 4510 and a fifth drive module 4520. The fixed ends of the fifth drive module 4520 and the fourth drive module 4410 are both arranged in the second sleeve 4510. Since the fourth transmission module 4420 is arranged at the output end of the third joint assembly 4300, it can drive the fourth transmission module 4420 and the fourth drive module 4410 to rotate along the third central axis.

[0153] Please refer to Figure 16In an embodiment of the present invention, the first sleeve 4310 is provided with a plurality of through holes 4311. The setting of the first sleeve 4310 and the second sleeve 4510 can be used to include a second drive module 4210 and a fourth drive module 4410. In order to improve the protection strength, the first sleeve 4310 can be made of aluminum alloy. The aluminum alloy material has good wear resistance and impact resistance, can withstand the torque and inertia force generated during the rotation process, and can reduce the weight of the joint assembly and improve the operating efficiency. The material of the first sleeve 4310 is not limited here. A plurality of through holes 4311 are arranged at intervals on the first sleeve 4310. The setting of the through holes 4311 can make the entire robotic arm 4000 lightweight.
[0154] In one embodiment, the second sleeve 4510 may have the same structure as the first sleeve 4310 and will not be described in detail herein.
[0155] In one embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of through hole 4311 is triangular. This triangular mounting hole not only reduces the weight of the housing, ensuring a lightweight joint assembly, but also provides a more stable structure. In other embodiments, the cross-sectional shape of the mounting hole can also be an irregular shape such as a rectangle, square, circle, or line, which is not limited here.
[0156] In an embodiment of the present invention, the wrist joint assembly 4600 includes a connecting frame 4610, a sixth driving module 4620 and a mounting base 4630. The mounting base 4630 is used to install the dexterous hand. The connecting frame 4610 is installed at the output end of the fifth driving module 4520. Two sixth driving modules 4620 are provided and are respectively arranged on both sides of the connecting frame 4610. The other end of the connecting frame 4610 is driven and connected to the mounting base 4630 to drive the mounting base 4630 and the dexterous hand to move closer to or away from the connecting frame 4610.
[0157] Please refer to Figure 15 and Figure 17Specifically, the fifth joint assembly 4500 is driven and connected to the connecting frame 4610 to drive the connecting frame 4610 to rotate. A mounting seat 4630 is provided at one end of the connecting frame 4610 away from the fifth joint assembly 4500. A dexterous hand for grasping or holding is installed on the mounting seat 4630. A sixth driving module 4620 is provided on both sides of the connecting frame 4610. The output end of the sixth driving module 4620 drives the sixth worm 5210 to rotate, thereby driving the sixth worm wheel 4621 to rotate. The sixth worm 5210 rotates. The length direction is the length direction of the connecting frame 4610. The sixth worm gear 4621 is coaxially connected to the swing arm 4650. The other end of the swing arm 4650 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 4660. The other end of the connecting rod 4660 is provided with a cross U block 4670. A connecting plate 4690 is provided between the cross U blocks 4670 on both sides of the connecting frame 4610. A cross block 4680 is provided at each end of the connecting plate 4690.

The swing block 4640 is rotatably connected to the connecting plate 4690 and the mounting seat 4630 through the rotating shaft 3430. That is, the mounting seat 4630 can be understood as driving the sixth worm gear 4621 to rotate through the sixth driving module 4620 compared to the connecting frame 4610, thereby driving the swing arm 4650 and the connecting rod 4660 to rotate, so that the connecting rod 4660 moves toward the fifth joint assembly 4500 or away from the fifth joint assembly 4500. The connecting rod 4660 moves in a direction away from the fifth joint assembly 4500, thereby driving the mounting base 4630 to swing. For example, the connecting rod 4660 moves in a direction away from the fifth joint assembly 4500, thereby pushing the bottom of the mounting base 4630 to move outward, that is, away from the fifth joint assembly 4500. The upper end of the mounting base 4630 rotates with the swing block 4640. In addition, when the connecting rods 4660 driven by the two sixth driving modules 4620 move in different directions, the mounting base 4630 will be driven to rotate compared to the swing block 4640, so that the mounting base 4630 and the dexterous hand can achieve grasping in multiple postures.
[0158] In one embodiment, the walking structure 3000 includes:
[0159] The base 3100 has a mounting position for the trunk structure 2000;
[0160] Two drive assemblies 3200 are provided and spaced apart on both sides of the bottom of the base 3100. Each drive assembly 3200 includes a drive motor 3210 and a drive wheel 3220. The drive motor 3210 is provided on the base 3100 and is connected to the drive wheel 3220. The drive wheel 3220 rotates on the base 3100 to drive the base 3100 to move.
[0161] The battery assembly 3300 is disposed on the base 3100 , and each driving motor 3210 is correspondingly provided with a battery assembly 3300 , and the battery assembly 3300 is electrically connected to the corresponding driving motor 3210 ; the shock absorbing assembly 3400 connects the base 3100 and the driving assembly 3200 .
[0162] A driving assembly 3200 is provided at the bottom of the base 3100. The driving assembly 3200 includes a driving motor 3210 and a driving wheel 3220. The driving motor 3210 is driven and connected to the driving wheel 3220, so that the driving wheel 3220 rotates relative to the base 3100. The friction between the driving wheel 3220 and the ground causes the driving wheel 3220 to drive the base 3100 to move forward or backward. A shock absorbing assembly 3400 is provided to connect the base 3100 and the driving assembly 3200, so that when the base 3100 moves on the ground, it can effectively absorb the impact and vibration from the ground, thereby reducing the wear of the structure on the base 3100 caused by impact, extending the service life of the walking structure 3000 and the trunk and robotic arm 4000 carried by it, and preventing the base 3100 and the trunk on the base 3100 from losing balance due to vibration. The shock absorbing assembly 3400 can also enable the base 3100 to maintain a stable posture during operation, thereby improving operational accuracy.
[0163] Specifically, the base 3100 serves as an installation base, and is preferably made of metal materials, such as aluminum alloy or stainless steel, so that it has sufficient strength and stability to support the robot's torso, robotic arm 4000 and other related structures. The robot's torso is installed above the base 3100, and the robotic arm 4000 for grasping or adsorption is provided on the torso. The shape of the base 3100 is not limited.
[0164] The driving assembly 3200 includes a driving motor 3210 and a driving wheel 3220. The output of the driving motor 3210 is connected to a reducer, and the reducer is connected to the driving wheel 3220 to rotate the driving wheel 3220. The driving motor 3210 can be a DC motor, an AC motor or a servo motor, which is not limited here. The driving wheel 3220 is in contact with the ground, and the driving wheel 3220 is rotatably arranged at the bottom of the base 3100. When the driving wheel 3220 rotates, the base 3100 can be moved, wherein the bottom of the base 3100 is respectively provided with There is one less drive motor 3210. In this embodiment, each side has one drive motor 3210. The drive wheels 3220 on both sides can rotate at different speeds, allowing the robot to turn. For example, if the left drive wheel 3220 rotates faster and the right drive wheel 3220 rotates slower, the robot will turn right. Conversely, if the left drive wheel 3220 rotates slower and the right drive wheel 3220 rotates faster, the robot will turn left. When the base 3100 needs to stop moving, the drive motor 3210 stops rotating, and the drive wheels 3220 no longer receive power input. In one embodiment, the drive motor 3210 can also transmit power to the drive wheels 3220 via gears and belts, etc., which are not limited here.
[0165] The battery assembly 3300 is provided in correspondence with the drive assembly 3200 and is typically located at the bottom or side of the base 3100. In this embodiment, the battery assembly 3300 is provided at the top of the base 3100 to facilitate heat dissipation of the battery assembly 3300. Each drive assembly 3200 is provided with a corresponding battery assembly 3300, so that the two battery assemblies 3300 are respectively provided above the two sides of the base 3100, which can balance the weight of the base 3100 and prevent displacement. The shock absorber assembly 3400 can use a damping shock absorber such as a hydraulic shock absorber or an air shock absorber, and can also use an elastic material such as rubber, etc., without limitation here.
[0166] In one embodiment, a shell is provided above the entire base 3100. The provision of the shell can reduce dust accumulation on the base 3100 and avoid affecting the operation of the internal drive motor 3210 and the like.
[0167] Please refer to Figure 13 and Figure 14In this technical solution, the shock absorbing assembly 3400 includes a mounting module 3410 and a first shock absorbing member 3420. The driving motor 3210 and the driving wheel 3220 are arranged on the side surface of the mounting module 3410 facing away from the base 3100. The first shock absorbing member 3420 connects the base 3100 and the mounting module 3410. The first shock absorbing member 3420 achieves buffering of the base 3100 by deformation such as compression and rebound. Specifically, when the driving wheel 3220 moves to a position with an uneven road surface, such as a raised ground, As the driving wheel 3220 is subjected to external force, the first shock absorber 3420 deforms and compresses, thereby storing elastic potential energy. After passing over a bump, the first shock absorber 3420 rebounds, buffering the impact of the bump. Conversely, when passing over a groove in the ground, the driving wheel 3220 is subjected to external force, causing the first shock absorber 3420 to extend. After passing over the groove, the first shock absorber 3420 retracts, buffering the impact and reducing the impact on the base 3100 and structures such as the torso on the base 3100. In some embodiments, the first shock absorber 3420 is a spring.
