[0043] In conjunction with the accompanying drawings, some embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0044] Example 1
[0045] The design principle of the anti-shake caster structure of the present application is: through experiments, it was found that the shaking of the rehabilitation robot is mainly caused by the uncertain and fragmented forces generated during the patient's active training, and the force sensor of the rehabilitation robot is relatively sensitive, which will always compensate, resulting in the rehabilitation robot and the equipment body constantly applying forces in all directions, causing it to shake itself, and the horizontal force is most likely to cause shaking.
[0046] Based on this, refer to Figure 1-Figure 4 This embodiment provides an anti-vibration caster structure, including:
[0047] A base 4, at least one caster foot cup assembly 5 is arranged at the bottom of the base 4;
[0048] The shell 2 comprises a cylinder 201 and a stopper 202. The stopper 202 is disposed at the upper opening of the cylinder 201. The stopper 202 is provided with a through hole 203. The shell 2 is disposed on the top of the base 4. The top surface of the base 4 is provided with a groove 401. The inner wall surface of the groove 401 is an arc surface structure, and the size of the groove 401 gradually increases from bottom to top.
[0049] The anti-shake component 1 includes a connecting portion 101, a baffle 102 and a slide bar 103 arranged in sequence from top to bottom, the baffle 102 is located in the housing 2 and below the baffle cover 202, and the size of the baffle 102 is larger than the size of the through hole 203; the bottom of the slide bar 103 is a spherical structure, the bottom of the slide bar 103 is located in the groove 401 and contacts the inner wall of the groove 401; the connecting portion 101 is penetrated through the through hole 203;
[0050] The spring 3 is sleeved on the slide bar 103 , and the upper and lower ends of the spring 3 are in contact with the baffle 102 and the base 4 respectively.
[0051] In an optional implementation of this embodiment, the cylinder 201 of the housing 2 may be in a regular shape or an irregular shape. The cylinder 201 is preferably in a regular shape, such as a cylinder, a square cylinder or other polygonal cylinders.
[0052] Here, the cylinder 201 is specifically described using a cylinder:
[0053] When the cylinder body 201 is a cylinder, accordingly: the blocking cover 202 is annular, the through hole 203 is a circular hole, the baffle 102 is a circular plate, and the diameter of the baffle 102 is larger than the diameter of the through hole 203, so that the blocking cover 202 can produce a vertical blocking effect on the baffle 102, and the blocking effect is also the vertical limiting effect of the blocking cover 202 on the baffle 102.
[0054] When the anti-shake caster structure is installed at the bottom of a rehabilitation robot or other equipment, when the rehabilitation robot or other equipment shakes due to horizontal force, the slide bar 103 can move horizontally in the inner cavity of the shell 2. Specifically, the bottom of the slide bar 103 can slide in the groove 401, and the groove 401 also has a limiting effect on the bottom of the slide bar 103, so the bottom of the slide bar 103 moves a shorter distance in the groove 401. As for how to limit the upper part of the slide bar 103, there are several design schemes: Since the inner wall of the perforation 203 can have a horizontal limiting effect on the connecting part 101, the perforation 203 can be designed to limit the connecting part 101 horizontally. Indirectly, the perforation 203 on the cover 202 can also have a horizontal limiting effect on the upper part of the slide bar 103; or, a limit block or a limit ring can be set at the bottom of the cover 202. When the slide bar 103 When the upper part moves horizontally, it is blocked by a limit block or a limit ring to limit the upper part of the slide bar 103; alternatively, a circle of limit grooves 204 are provided on the baffle cover 202 and at the bottom of the through hole 203. Among the upper, middle and lower parts of the baffle plate 102, at least the upper part of the baffle plate 102 is located in the limit groove 204. When the upper part of the slide bar 103 moves horizontally, the upper part of the slide bar 103 is horizontally limited by the blocking effect of the limit groove 204.
[0055] In the above schemes, preferably, a circle of limiting grooves 204 are opened on the blocking cover 202 and located at the bottom of the through hole 203, and the upper part of the baffle plate 102 is located in the limiting groove 204, and there is a gap between the baffle plate 102 and the limiting groove 204 in both vertical and horizontal directions.
[0056] Since the baffle 102 is a circular plate, the limiting groove 204 is also designed as a circular groove. In the initial state, the central axis of the circular plate, the central axis of the circular groove, the central axis of the baffle 202 and the through hole 203, and the central axis of the slide bar 103 are all collinear.
[0057] The horizontal width of the limiting groove 204 is L1, and the horizontal width of the baffle 102 is L2, which satisfies: L1-L2=4 to 6 mm.
[0058] Preferably, since the horizontal spacing between the baffle 102 and the limiting groove 204 is equal, L1-L2=5mm is satisfied, and the spacing between the baffle 102 and the limiting groove 204 is 2.5mm. The 2.5mm gap between the sliding rod 103 and the limiting groove 204 ensures that the sliding rod 103 can move horizontally between the cover 202 and the base 4.
[0059] In a preferred embodiment of this embodiment, the inner wall surface of the groove 401 is a spherical structure, and the inner wall surface of the groove 401 matches the bottom of the slide bar 103. In this case, the groove 401 is a spherical groove, and the bottom structure of the slide bar 103 is a ball head structure. Then, the ball head at the bottom of the slide bar 103 is located in the spherical groove to achieve universal rotation.
[0060] In order to increase the sliding between the bottom of the slide bar 103 and the inner wall of the groove 401, a lubricant may be provided in the groove 401 to lubricate the slide bar 103 and the groove 401 and reduce friction.
[0061] The lubricant can be lubricating oil, such as butter. In addition, the component material can also be changed to achieve lubrication therebetween, for example, a nylon component is embedded in the contact portion between the bottom of the slide bar 103 and the base 4 to improve the lubrication effect.
[0062] The caster and foot cup assembly 5 includes a foot cup 501 and a caster 502. The foot cup 501 can adjust the vertical height and provide support, and the caster 502 can drive the device to move. The caster and foot cup assembly 5 can use a set of foot cup 501 and caster 502 assemblies, or a separate foot cup 501 combined with a caster 502. When the device is working, the foot cup 501 is lowered to ensure the overall stability. The device is adjusted horizontally in the shell 2 through the slide bar 103 to offset the jitter caused by the robot's own compensation. When the device is transferred, the foot cup 501 is raised, the caster 502 is on the ground, and the device can move freely.
[0063] Preferably, the cylinder 201 and the blocking cover 202 are an integrally formed structure.
[0064] Specifically, the top surface of the base 4 is also provided with a circular slot 402, and the cylinder 201 can be clamped in the circular slot 402. Then, the housing 2 and the base 4 are connected and fixed by a plurality of first screws 7. The top of the caster foot cup assembly 5 is connected and fixed to the base 4 by a plurality of second screws 6.
[0065] The spring 3 can be a compression spring 3, which can reduce the pressure of the slide bar 103 on the base 4 (especially when the slide bar 103 moves horizontally, the upper part of the slide bar 103 tilts and squeezes the spring 3), thereby reducing the friction of horizontal movement. The elasticity of the spring 3 can also be adjusted to offset the vertical jitter.
[0066] Only one caster foot assembly 5 may be provided at the bottom of the base 4 . When two or more caster foot assemblies 5 are provided at the bottom of the base 4 , all caster foot assemblies 5 are evenly distributed around the central axis of the cylinder 201 .
[0067] The connecting part 101 adopts a screw rod, which is threadedly connected to the bottom of the rehabilitation robot through the screw rod; or, the connecting part 101 adopts a rod body, the rod body passes through the through hole 203 of the baffle cover 202 and extends above the baffle cover 202, and a flat plate is arranged on the top of the rod body, the flat plate is installed on the bottom of the rehabilitation robot to achieve flat plate installation, and the flat plate and the bottom of the rehabilitation robot are bolted and fixed by multiple bolts.
[0068] Example 2
[0069] The cylinder 201 in this embodiment is a square cylinder, that is, the horizontal cross section of the cylinder 201 is square. Accordingly, the blocking cover 202 is a square plate, the through hole 203 is a round hole or a square hole, and the baffle 102 is designed as a round plate or a square plate; wherein, when the baffle 102 is designed as a round plate, the limiting groove 204 is designed as a round groove (consistent with the embodiment 1); when the baffle 102 is designed as a square plate, the limiting groove 204 is designed as a square groove, which still satisfies L1-L2=4 to 6mm. Accordingly, a square clamping groove 402 is provided on the top surface of the base 4, so that the bottom of the cylinder 201 is correspondingly clamped in the square clamping groove 402.
[0070] Example 3
[0071] Reference Figure 5 This embodiment provides a rehabilitation robot, including a robot body 8, and also includes the anti-shake caster structure. A plurality of the anti-shake caster structures are arranged at the bottom of the robot body 8, and the anti-shake caster structure is connected to the robot body 8 through the connecting part 101.
[0072] In this embodiment, four anti-shake caster structures are arranged at the bottom of the robot body 8 and are distributed at the four corners.
[0073] The beneficial effects of the technical solution of the utility model are:
[0074] The anti-shake caster structure designed in the present application can be installed at the bottom of the rehabilitation robot (or other equipment) through the connection part 101. During the active training of the rehabilitation robot, if the rehabilitation robot shakes horizontally, it will drive the slide bar 103 to move horizontally in the shell 2, and at the same time, the bottom of the slide bar 103 slides in the groove 401 to achieve horizontal adjustment and offset the shaking caused by the robot's own compensation. Therefore, when the anti-shake caster structure is installed at the bottom of the rehabilitation robot, the anti-shake caster structure can achieve short-distance adjustment in the horizontal direction to offset the shaking caused by the robot's own compensation. The structural design of the anti-shake caster structure not only reduces or suppresses costs, but also does not affect the aesthetics, and can improve the effect of suppressing shaking.
