DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the utility model provides a walking device of a service robot, including a service robot body 1, and also includes:

[0025] A supporting component, which is arranged at the bottom of the service robot body 1 and is used to improve the stability of the service robot body 1;

[0026] Among them, the supporting component includes a fixed seat 2, both sides of the fixed seat 2 are provided with walking wheels 3, a first fixed shaft 4 is installed at the bottom of the fixed seat 2, a second fixed plate 15 is installed at the bottom end of the first fixed shaft 4, a movable frame 5 and a first spring 6 are sleeved on the outer surface of the first fixed shaft 4, a support plate 7 is installed at the bottom of the movable frame 5, a first slot 8 is opened at the bottom of the fixed seat 2, a second fixed shaft 9 is installed inside the first slot 8, a movable part 10 and a second spring 11 are sleeved on the outer surface of the second fixed shaft 9, a first fixed plate 12 is installed at the bottom of the fixed seat 2, a control motor 13 is installed at the bottom of the first fixed plate 12, and a cam 14 is installed on the output shaft of the control motor 13.

[0027] By controlling the operation of the motor 13, the cam 14 will rotate, so that the cam 14 and the movable part 10 can cooperate to drive the movable part 10 to move along the outer surface of the second fixed axis 9. At the same time, through the cooperation between the movable part 10 and the movable frame 5, when the chamfer of the movable part 10 squeezes the movable frame 5, it will drive the movable frame 5 to move downward along the outer surface of the first fixed axis 4 and drive the support plate 7, and then the support plate 7 can be driven to squeeze and contact with the ground, thereby increasing the contact area and friction with the ground, making the service robot body 1 more stable.

[0028] The bottom of the movable member 10 is provided with a chamfer, and the movable member 10 is in extrusion contact with the movable frame 5 .

[0029] By setting the chamfer at the bottom of the movable part 10, when the movable part 10 squeezes the movable frame 5, its inclined surface will gradually drive the movable frame 5 to move downward along the outer surface of the first fixed axis 4, so that the support plate 7 can be driven by the movable frame 5 to be squeezed against the ground, and when the service robot body 1 is subjected to thrust, it can be prevented from sliding, thereby facilitating the user's operation.

[0030] The second spring 11 is elastically supported between the first notch 8 and the movable member 10 .

[0031] Through the design of the second spring 11, the movable part 10 has good elastic reset performance. At this time, since the second spring 11 is in a compressed state, it will apply an elastic force to the movable part 10, so that when the cam 14 releases the pressure on the movable part 10, it will drive the movable part 10 to release the pressure on the movable frame 5.

[0032] The cam 14 is in press contact with the movable member 10 .

[0033] Through the cooperation between the cam 14 and the movable part 10, when the cam 14 rotates to squeeze the movable part 10, the movable part 10 will move along the outer surface of the second fixed shaft 9 and squeeze the movable frame 5, so that the movable frame 5 moves downward along the outer surface of the first fixed shaft 4 and drives the support plate 7 to contact the ground.

[0034] The bottom of the support plate 7 is corrugated, and the support plate 7 can contact the ground when moving downward.

[0035] By setting the corrugations at the bottom of the support plate 7, the bottom of the support plate 7 is made rougher, which can increase the friction of the support plate 7 when the support plate 7 contacts the ground. Therefore, when the service robot body 1 remains stationary, the stability of the service robot body 1 can be improved to avoid movement when it is operated.

[0036] The first spring 6 is elastically supported between the movable frame 5 and the second fixed plate 15 .

[0037] Through the design of the first spring 6, the movable frame 5 has good elastic reset performance. At this time, since the first spring 6 is in a compressed state, it will apply an elastic force to the movable frame 5. When the cam 14 releases the squeeze on the movable part 10, the first spring 6 will apply an upward thrust to the movable frame 5, thereby driving the movable frame 5 to move upward along the outer surface of the first fixed axis 4 and drive the support plate 7 to separate from the ground, and then when the service robot body 1 moves, it can control the support plate 7 to separate from the ground, so that it can move normally.

[0038] Among them, a movable rod 16 is installed on the top of the second fixed plate 15, and the top end of the movable rod 16 is connected to a connecting plate 17. A second slot 18 is opened inside the fixed seat 2, and a movable ring 20 and a return spring 21 are sleeved inside the second slot 18. A connecting rod 19 is installed in the middle of the movable ring 20, and a pressure plate 22 is installed at the bottom end of the connecting rod 19.

[0039] When the second fixed plate 15 moves downward, a pulling force will be applied to the movable rod 16, so that when the movable rod 16 pulls the second fixed plate 15, the second fixed plate 15 will cause a pressure on the connecting rod 19. At the same time, through the cooperation between the movable ring 20 and the second slot 18, the movable ring 20 will move along the inner wall of the second slot 18, and then can drive the pressure plate 22 to be squeezed with the ground, which can limit 1 from shaking back and forth.

[0040] The return spring 21 is elastically supported between the second notch 18 and the movable ring 20 , and the connecting plate 17 is in compression contact with the connecting rod 19 .

[0041] Through the design of the reset spring 21, the movable ring 20 has good elastic reset performance. At this time, since the reset spring 21 is in a compressed state, it will apply an elastic force to the movable ring 20, so that when the connecting plate 17 releases the squeeze on the connecting rod 19, it can drive the pressure plate 22 to separate from the ground.

[0042] The working principle and use process of this utility model:

[0043] When the service robot body 1 stops moving, the control motor 13 will start to run to control the cam 14 to rotate, so that the cam 14 and the movable part 10 can cooperate to push the movable part 10 to move along the outer surface of the second fixed axis 9. When the movable part 10 moves, it will be squeezed with the movable frame 5. When the chamfer of the movable part 10 squeezes the movable frame 5, it will drive the movable frame 5 to move downward along the outer surface of the first fixed axis 4 and drive the support plate 7, and then the service robot body 1 can be made more stable by driving the support plate 7 to be squeezed into contact with the ground.
