Abstract

The application discloses a design method of a ceiling type intelligent mechanical arm in a house car, belongs to the field of house car production and manufacturing, and aims to solve the technical problems of large floor space occupied by an existing house car domestic robot and single function of a fixed position mechanical arm. The application adopts a ceiling installation and guide rail movement scheme, and realizes vertical movement of the mechanical arm through a three-section telescopic hanging column, so that the mechanical arm can move in multiple dimensions horizontally and vertically in the house car and cover most spaces. The application avoids the defects of occupying valuable ground space by a wheeled robot or a biped robot, overcomes the shortage of a fixed position mechanical arm that cannot meet diversified domestic needs, and can realize multiple automatic domestic functions such as catering service, clothes washing and protection, bed arrangement, bathroom cleaning and the like.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of RV manufacturing technology, specifically relating to a design method for a ceiling-mounted intelligent robotic arm in an RV. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of the RV industry, users' demand for automated housekeeping functions within RVs is increasing. Currently, there are two main types of automated housekeeping solutions for RVs: one uses humanoid bipedal or wheeled housekeeping robots, but these have the problem of occupying a large space and having a limited range of movement in the narrow floor space of an RV; the other uses fixed-position robotic arms, but their fixed installation position and limited range of movement cannot meet diverse housekeeping needs such as catering, laundry, bed making, and bathroom cleaning. Therefore, both existing solutions have obvious shortcomings and are difficult to adapt to the RV scenario. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a design method for a ceiling-mounted intelligent robotic arm in a motorhome, so as to solve the problems of large space occupation and limited functionality of existing solutions.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] This invention suspends two robotic arms on fixed guide rails on the ceiling of the RV. The suspension column has a three-section telescopic structure, enabling the robotic arms to move vertically up and down. The suspension column chassis can move within the guide rails, driving the robotic arms horizontally to various preset working positions inside the RV, thus allowing the robotic arms to cover most of the space inside the RV. Once in their working positions, the robotic arms can perform household chores according to pre-trained programs, such as serving food, washing and drying clothes, making beds, and cleaning bathrooms.

[0006] The crane base can move independently on the guide rails and supply power and transmit signal data to the robotic arm;

[0007] The three-section hanging column is about 50-60 centimeters long and can be extended and retracted to cover most of the height inside the vehicle.

[0008] Sensors or cameras are installed on the hanging column, shoulder, and hand joints, which can read real-time data from other sensors and cameras in the vehicle to achieve dynamic perception of items and status inside the vehicle.

[0009] When not in operation, the boom retracts, the robotic arm folds to its minimum position, and moves to the resting position, minimizing space occupation. Detailed Implementation

[0010] The robotic arm starts working based on the car owner's voice commands, app commands, or pre-set conditions. Upon receiving a work command, the mast chassis moves along the guide rail to the designated working position, the mast extends and retracts to the appropriate height according to the task requirements, and the robotic arm executes the work task according to the preset procedure. After the work is completed, if there are no new commands, the mast chassis will move back to the resting position, the mast will retract, and the robotic arm will fold back, entering a standby "resting" state. The robotic arm can interact with the car owner via voice, receiving commands and providing feedback on the working status.
