DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0031] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all the other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0032] In addition, the elements in the present application are referred to as "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, which can be directly on another element or can have a middle element. When an element is considered to be "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to another element or can have a middle element. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are only for illustrative purposes, and do not represent the only implementation.
[0033] Please refer to Figures 1-11 In the embodiments of the present application, a smart ordering robot for the attached type starting stretching and overturning comprises: A robot body 1 and a protective box 3 disposed on the robot body 1, the robot body 1 is provided with a stretching and overturning structure, and the stretching and overturning structure is connected with a hollow plate 5; Further comprising: A storage box 6 fixedly connected with the hollow plate 5, used for storing an ordering tablet; The first rotating sleeve 8 is rotatably installed in the hollow plate 5, and the first movable rod 9 is axially slidably arranged in the first rotating sleeve 8. The outer circumferential wall of the first movable rod 9 is provided with a guide groove, and the inner wall of the first rotating sleeve 8 is provided with a first limiting block 801 which is slidably fitted with the guide groove. The first movable rod 9 is provided with a bottom limiting assembly. The top limiting mechanism is arranged in the hollow plate 5 and connected with the first rotating sleeve 8. When the bottom limiting assembly and the top limiting mechanism lock the upper and lower sides of the ordering flat plate, the unlocking resistance and unlocking assistance can be provided by the cooperation of the guide groove and the first limiting block 801 when unlocking.
[0034] Specifically, when the customer needs to order, the control of the hollow plate 5 and the storage box 6 is separated from the protection box 3 under the action of the stretching and turning structure, and the ordering flat plate is turned to face the customer position. At this time, the customer can manually click the ordering flat plate to order. If the customer wants to hold the ordering flat plate to order, the top limiting mechanism can be controlled to move and drive the first rotating sleeve 8 to rotate, thereby driving the first movable rod 9 to move. Under the action of the guide groove and the first limiting block 801, resistance is first provided to the rotation of the first rotating sleeve 8 to prevent the ordering flat plate from being separated due to customer misoperation. If the top limiting mechanism continuously controls the rotation of the first rotating sleeve 8, the guide groove and the first limiting block 801 will cooperate with the bottom limiting assembly to provide rotation assistance to the rotation of the first rotating sleeve 8, thereby facilitating the customer to take out. When the top limiting mechanism is separated from the ordering flat plate, the bottom limiting assembly will provide an ejection force to the ordering flat plate, so that the ordering flat plate is separated from the storage box 6 by a certain size, so as to facilitate the customer to take out the ordering flat plate from the storage box 6. When the customer finishes ordering, the ordering flat plate is only inserted into the innermost part of the storage box 6. Under the double action of the bottom limiting assembly and the top limiting mechanism, the upper and lower sides of the ordering flat plate are automatically locked, thereby achieving the effect of protecting the ordering flat plate and facilitating ordering.
[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 , the stretching and turning structure includes a mechanical hand 2 rotatably installed on both sides of the robot body 1, and the mechanical hand 2 is rotatably installed with a rotating rod 4 fixedly connected with the hollow plate 5.
[0036] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 , the storage box 6 is provided with a guide plate 7 arranged symmetrically and used for guiding and positioning the ordering flat plate.
[0037] Further, the mechanical arm 2 is composed of two legs, one of which is rotatably installed on the robot body 1, and the other is rotatably installed on the first leg. Under the action of the mechanical arm 2, the length and ground clearance of the hollow plate 5 extending out of the protection box 3 can be adjusted, and under the action of the rotating rod 4, the yaw angle of the hollow plate 5 can be adjusted. The robot body 1 is also provided with a visual sensor, which can control the hollow plate 5 and the storage box 6 to move to the position required by the customer through the mechanical arm 2 and the rotating rod 4, so as to facilitate the customer to order, and the driving source of the mechanical arm 2 and the rotating rod 4 can be a motor or a cylinder, which is an application of the prior art. This application will not be described in detail.
[0038] The guide plate 7 is in the shape of an isosceles trapezoid, and under the action of the guide plate 7, the width in the storage box 6 is in a variable state. When the ordering flat plate is inserted into the storage box 6 and has not reached the position of the guide plate 7, the width in the storage box 6 is greater than the width of the ordering flat plate, so the ordering flat plate can be easily inserted into the storage box 6. When the ordering flat plate moves to the abutment with the inclined surface of the guide plate 7, the width in the storage box 6 gradually decreases, and under the action of the guide plate 7, the ordering flat plate is guided to move towards the middle position of the storage box 6. When the ordering flat plate moves to the most protruding surface of the guide plate 7, the width in the storage box 6 is just matched with the ordering flat plate, and the ordering flat plate is positioned to avoid shaking during use. When the ordering flat plate is inserted into the storage box 6 to the maximum depth, the top limiting mechanism and the bottom limiting assembly limit the upper and lower sides of the ordering flat plate, thereby further ensuring the stability of the ordering flat plate during use.
[0039] Please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 10 , the guide groove includes a first spiral groove 901, a second spiral groove 902, a third spiral groove 903, and a fourth spiral groove 904, and the first spiral groove 901, the second spiral groove 902, the third spiral groove 903, and the fourth spiral groove 904 are sequentially connected to each other.
[0040] Please refer to Figures 3-7 , the bottom limiting assembly includes a first through groove 601 formed in the side wall of the storage box 6, the end of the first movable rod 9 is provided with an inclined plate 10, the inclined plate 10 is provided with a first supporting plate 11, the inclined plate 10 and the first supporting plate 11 penetrate through the first through groove 601, and the first rotating sleeve 8 and the first movable rod 9 are provided with a first spring 12 abutting against the inclined plate 10.
[0041] Please refer to Figures 3-5 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 , Figure 11The top limiting mechanism comprises a second rotating sleeve 14 rotatably installed in the hollow plate 5, a belt 13 connected with the first rotating sleeve 8 is sleeved on the second rotating sleeve 14, and a rotating ring 15 penetrating through the hollow plate 5 is arranged at the end of the second rotating sleeve 14; further comprising an elastic assembly and a guide assembly arranged on the second rotating sleeve 14 and used for limiting and unlocking the ordering flat plate, the elastic assembly comprises a second through groove 602 formed in the side wall of the storage box 6, a second movable rod 16 axially sliding in the second rotating sleeve 14, a second supporting plate 17 arranged at the end of the second movable rod 16, a fixed ring 18 arranged on the second rotating sleeve 14, and a second spring 19 sleeved on the second rotating sleeve 14 and the second movable rod 16, the two ends of the second spring 19 abut against the fixed ring 18 and the second supporting plate 17 respectively, and the guide assembly comprises a guide groove formed in the circumferential outer wall of the second movable rod 16, and a second limiting block 1401 is arranged on the inner wall of the second rotating sleeve 14 and slidingly fitted in the guide groove, the guide groove comprises an annular inclined groove 1601, a straight groove 1602, a ring groove 1603 and a fifth spiral groove 1604 formed in the circumferential outer wall of the second movable rod 16, and the annular inclined groove 1601, the straight groove 1602, the ring groove 1603 and the fifth spiral groove 1604 are sequentially connected in the head-tail direction.
[0042] Please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 10 , in detail, the inclined plate 10 is arranged in a triangular inclined manner, and the inclined surface faces the direction of the ordering flat plate, the first supporting plate 11 is used for limiting the maximum depth of the ordering flat plate in the storage box 6, the angles formed by the first spiral groove 901, the second spiral groove 902, the third spiral groove 903 and the fourth spiral groove 904 in the circumferential direction of the first movable rod 9 are all 90°, the first spiral groove 901 and the second spiral groove 902 are arranged in the same direction, the pitch of the first spiral groove 901 is greater than that of the second spiral groove 902, the third spiral groove 903 and the fourth spiral groove 904 are arranged in the same direction, and the pitch of the fourth spiral groove 904 is greater than that of the third spiral groove 903. Please refer to Figure 11 , the annular inclined groove 1601 is arranged in a ring shape and has a certain inclination angle, the inclination angle is relatively small, and the annular inclined groove 1601 is inclined towards the direction of the ring groove 1603, the annular inclined groove 1601 is formed in the circumferential direction of the second movable rod 16 at an angle of 180°, and the ring groove 1603 and the fifth spiral groove 1604 are formed in the circumferential direction of the second movable rod 16 at an angle of 90°.
[0043] When the first limiting block 801 is located at the connecting position of the first spiral groove 901 and the fourth spiral groove 904, the mutual fitting size of the first rotating sleeve 8 and the first movable rod 9 is the smallest, so that the length of the combination of the first rotating sleeve 8 and the first movable rod 9 is the longest, and the elongation of the first spring 12 in the natural state is greater than the longest length, for this, the first spring 12 is in the pre-compressed state, and always provides the tilting plate 10 with the pushing force in the direction away from the first rotating sleeve 8, so that the size of the tilting plate 10 and the first supporting plate 11 extending into the storage box 6 is the largest, and in the cooperation of the tilting plate 10 and the first supporting plate 11 with the storage box 6, the first movable rod 9 can only move along the length direction of the first rotating sleeve 8, and cannot rotate; At this time, the second limiting block 1401 is located at the middle position of the annular inclined groove 1601, so that the mutual fitting size of the second movable rod 16 and the second rotating sleeve 14 is the largest, so that the second supporting plate 17 is completely placed in the hollow plate 5, and since the second supporting plate 17 is attached to the inner wall of the hollow plate 5, the second movable rod 16 can only slide along the axial direction of the second rotating sleeve 14, and cannot rotate, and the compression amount of the second spring 19 in the natural state is greater than the maximum distance between the fixed ring 18 and the second supporting plate 17, for this, the second spring 19 is in the pre-compressed state, and the elastic potential energy of the second spring 19 is always smaller than the elastic potential energy of the first spring 12, and always provides the second supporting plate 17 with the pushing force in the direction away from the second rotating sleeve 14 under the action of the second spring 19, so that the second rotating sleeve 14 has a rotating tendency under the action of the second limiting block 1401 and the annular inclined groove 1601, so as to control the first rotating sleeve 8 to have a rotating tendency through the belt 13, so that the first limiting block 801 has a tendency to enter the first spiral groove 901, and the first spring 12 can overcome the rotating tendency at this time, for this, the position of the second movable rod 16 will not change.
[0044] When the ordering tablet is inserted into the storage box 6, since the second supporting plate 17 is in the hollow plate 5, the ordering tablet will not interfere with the second supporting plate 17, when the ordering tablet moves to abut against the inclined surface of the tilting plate 10, the tilting plate 10 will give way and move into the hollow plate 5, thereby driving the first movable rod 9 to move, and the first movable rod 9 will also drive the guide groove to move, since the first rotating sleeve 8 has a rotating tendency, for this, when the first movable rod 9 moves, the first limiting block 801 will enter the first spiral groove 901 relative to the first movable rod 9 and slide in the first spiral groove 901, so that the first rotating sleeve 8 rotates, thereby driving the second rotating sleeve 14 to rotate through the belt 13, and the second rotating sleeve 14 will also drive the second limiting block 1401 to slide along the annular inclined groove 1601, so that the second spring 19 is elastically released, so that the second supporting plate 17 moves a very short distance away from the second rotating sleeve 14; Please refer to Figure 3 When the order tablet moves to the position of being separated from the inclined plate 10 and abutting against the first support plate 11, the depth of the order tablet inserted into the storage box 6 reaches the maximum, under the action of the first movable rod 9, the first limiting block 801 is just located at the connecting position of the first spiral groove 901 and the second spiral groove 902, so that the first rotating sleeve 8 rotates by 90°, thereby controlling the second rotating sleeve 14 to rotate by 90° through the belt 13, at this time, the second limiting block 1401 is just moved to the connecting position of the annular inclined groove 1601 and the straight groove 1602, the second spring 19 is elastically released and pushes the second support plate 17 to quickly pass through the second through groove 602 and enter the storage box 6, so as to adhere to the top of the order tablet through the second support plate 17, thereby positioning the top of the order tablet, when the second limiting block 1401 is moved to the connecting position of the straight groove 1602 and the annular groove 1603, the second support plate 17 no longer moves, under the bidirectional locking of the second support plate 17 and the first support plate 11, it can be ensured that the order tablet does not shake.
[0045] Preferably, when the first limiting block 801 is located at the connecting position of the first spiral groove 901 and the second spiral groove 902, the first spring 12 is in a compressed state and always provides a pushing force to the inclined plate 10 to move in the direction away from the first rotating sleeve 8, so that the first limiting block 801 has a tendency to return to the first spiral groove 901, so that the first rotating sleeve 8 has a tendency to rotate towards the initial angle, and the second limiting block 1401 is located at the connecting position of the straight groove 1602 and the annular groove 1603, so that the second rotating sleeve 14 cannot rotate towards the initial angle, which also has a locking effect on the first rotating sleeve 8, in this way, through the switching of the position of the second limiting block 1401 in the guide groove, the locking effect can be effectively provided to ensure that the positions of the first support plate 11 and the second support plate 17 do not change.
[0046] If the customer needs to take the order tablet, at this time, the rotating ring 15 can be manually controlled to rotate, since the second limiting block 1401 is located at the connecting position of the straight groove 1602 and the annular groove 1603, the rotating ring 15 can only rotate in one direction, thereby achieving the effect of preventing mistakes, when the rotating ring 15 rotates, the second limiting block 1401 slides along the annular groove 1603 through the second rotating sleeve 14, the compression amount of the second spring 19 does not change, at the same time, the second rotating sleeve 14 also drives the first rotating sleeve 8 to rotate through the belt 13, thereby controlling the first limiting block 801 to slide along the second spiral groove 902, so that the first movable rod 9 continues to move towards the first rotating sleeve 8 to compress the first spring 12, under the action of the first spring 12, a rotating resistance is provided to the rotating ring 15 to prevent the order tablet from being separated from the storage box 6 due to the customer's mistake or other problems when the order tablet is not needed to be taken; When the second limiting block 1401 moves to the position where the annular groove 1603 is connected with the fifth spiral groove 1604, the first limiting block 801 just moves to the position where the second spiral groove 902 is connected with the third spiral groove 903. At this time, the rotating ring 15 continues to rotate by a small angle, and then the first limiting block 801 enters the third spiral groove 903. At this time, the first spring 12 is elastically released and pushes the first movable rod 9 to move away from the first rotating sleeve 8. Since the elastic potential energy of the first spring 12 is greater than that of the second spring 19, the pushing force provided by the first spring 12 will overcome the resistance provided by the second spring 19, so that the first rotating sleeve 8 is automatically rotated and drives the second rotating sleeve 14 to rotate through the belt 13, thereby controlling the second limiting block 1401 to slide in the fifth spiral groove 1604, so as to control the second support plate 17 to move towards the second rotating sleeve 14 through the second movable rod 16. When the first limiting block 801 moves to the position where the third spiral groove 903 is connected with the fourth spiral groove 904, the second limiting block 1401 just separates from the fifth spiral groove 1604, so that the second support plate 17 separates from the ordering flat plate. At this time, the first spring 12 continues to be elastically released, so that the inclined plate 10 abuts against the ordering flat plate, so as to push the ordering flat plate out of the storage box 6 by a certain distance, thereby facilitating the customer to take the ordering flat plate.
[0047] Preferably, the ordering flat plate can be unlocked by controlling the rotation of the rotating ring 15. During the rotation, the rotating ring 15 is first provided with a rotating resistance by the cooperation between the first limiting block 801 and the guide groove, so as to avoid the influence of accidental touch on the ordering flat plate. Then, the rotating ring 15 is provided with a rotating assistance, and at the same time, the ordering flat plate is automatically pushed out of the storage box 6 by a certain distance, thereby achieving the effect of assisting the customer to take the ordering flat plate after confirming that the ordering flat plate needs to be taken.
[0048] A use method of an attached starting stretching and overturning intelligent ordering robot, comprising the following steps: Step one: before ordering, the ordering flat plate is arranged in the storage box 6 through the cooperation between the top limiting mechanism and the bottom limiting component; Step two: during ordering, the hollow plate 5 is controlled to separate from the protection box 3 through the stretching and overturning structure, and the storage box 6 is overturned to face the customer; Step three: the top limiting mechanism is controlled to move, and the top limiting mechanism is first provided with an unlocking resistance and then provided with an unlocking assistance under the cooperation between the guide groove and the first limiting block 801; Step four: when the top limiting mechanism separates from the top part of the ordering flat plate, the bottom limiting component can push the ordering flat plate out of the storage box 6 It will be obvious to a person skilled in the art that the application is not limited to the details of the foregoing exemplary embodiments and can be implemented in other concrete forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the application. The embodiments are therefore to be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive, the scope of the application being indicated by the appended claims rather than by the foregoing description, and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein. No reference signs in the claims should be considered as limiting the scope of the claims to the identity of the reference signs therein.
