DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein the accompanying drawings constitute a part of the present invention and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, but are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0037] Example 1

[0038] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a human-machine interaction robot, including a frame assembly 1 and a module assembly 2; the frame assembly 1 is an open three-dimensional frame, including a base frame 11, a flip frame 12 and a mounting rod assembly 13; the base frame 11 is a cubic frame with one side open, including a bottom plate 111, a first support component 112, a second support component 113 and a first connecting component 114; the first supporting component 112 and the second supporting component 113 are respectively located on two opposite surfaces of the base frame 11, preferably, the first supporting component 112 and the second supporting component 113 are both two columns; the two first connecting components 114 are respectively located on the other two opposite surfaces of the base frame 11, and the two ends are respectively fixed on the first supporting component 112 and the second supporting component 113, the two first connecting components 114 are used to connect the mounting rod assembly 13, preferably, the first connecting component 114 is a cylindrical connecting rod.

[0039] The flip cover frame 12 is a square frame, which is located on one side of the opening of the base frame 11. One side of the flip cover frame 12 is rotatably connected to the first support component 112. Preferably, a damping rotation connector 3 is provided for rotational connection. The damping rotation connector 3 adopts a metal or plastic damping hinge, and a damping shaft, a damping hinge and other damping rotation connectors can also be used to enable the flip cover frame 12 to rotate and stop at a desired angle.

[0040] like Figure 3 As shown, the mounting rod assembly 13 is used to fix the electronic module of the mounting module assembly 2, and includes a sleeve rod 131 and a mounting piece 132; second connecting parts 1312 are provided at both ends of the sleeve rod 131, and the second connecting parts 1312 at both ends can be detachably connected to the two first connecting parts 114 respectively. Preferably, the second connecting part 1312 is an elastic claw, which can be engaged with the surface of the first connecting part 114, so as to install the mounting rod assembly 13 on the base frame 11; a double-layer slide groove 1311 is provided between the two second connecting parts 1312 of the sleeve rod 131, and one end of the double-layer slide groove 1311 is open for assembling the mounting piece 132; the top layer and the bottom layer of the double-layer slide groove 1311 are interconnected, and are used to penetrate bolts to fix the electronic module on the sleeve rod.

[0041] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the mounting member 132 includes a first mounting member 1321 and a second mounting member 1322; the first mounting member 1321 is located at the lower layer of the double-layer slide groove 1311, and is a cubic block that matches the inner wall of the lower layer of the double-layer slide groove 1311. A threaded hole is provided at the axis center in the vertical direction of the first mounting member 1321, and the diameter of the threaded hole is smaller than the opening distance between the partitions of the double-layer slide groove 1311; the second mounting member 1322 is a convex block with a "convex" shape in an axial cross-section, and the bottom of the "convex" shape is located at the upper layer of the double-layer slide groove 1311 and matches the inner wall of the double-layer slide groove 1311. The top of the second mounting member 1322 protrudes from the top of the sleeve rod 131 and a through hole is provided in the center. Since the top of the second mounting member 1322 protrudes from the top of the sleeve rod 131 and directly fits with the bottom of the electronic module, on the one hand, it can avoid the top surface of the sleeve rod 131 from interfering with the welding point at the bottom of the electronic module and causing the welding point to loosen; on the other hand, it can also enable the second mounting member 1322 and the first mounting member 1321 to clamp the two partitions between the double-layer slide groove 1311, so that the electronic module can be limited and fixed in the axial direction of the sleeve rod 131.

[0042] When installing the electronic module, first assemble the two groups of mounting parts 132 on a sleeve rod 131 from the open end of the double-layer slide groove 1311, and then connect the second connecting parts 1312 at both ends of the assembled mounting rod assembly 13 to the first connecting parts 114 on both sides respectively; select the electronic module to be installed, use bolts to fix one mounting hole of the electronic module on a group of mounting parts 132, and then slide another group of mounting parts 132 to align the other mounting hole of the electronic module with the center hole of the group of mounting parts 132, and then fix it with bolts. In this way, the installation of the electronic module with two mounting holes is completed. When the electronic module has four mounting holes, since the four mounting holes are usually arranged symmetrically at right angles, it is only necessary to assemble another mounting rod assembly 13 including two sets of mounting parts 132, and then connect the second mounting rod assembly 13 to the first connecting part 114. It should be noted that during installation, it is necessary to ensure that the distance between the mounting holes of the two mounting rod assemblies 13 is consistent with the hole distance of the electronic module. Finally, according to the above steps, the other two mounting holes of the electronic module are fixed to the two sets of mounting parts 132 of the second mounting rod assembly 13, and the installation of the electronic module is completed.

[0043] It should be noted that when multiple electronic modules need to be fixed on the same mounting rod assembly 13, the mounting rod assembly 13 only needs to be disassembled from the first connecting member 114 and then assembled with the required number of mounting members 132. The second connecting member 1312 at one end can also be set as an elastic claw that can rotate on the first connecting member 114. In this case, the mounting member 132 can be added by simply disassembling the second connecting member 1312 at the other end and rotating it.

[0044] It should be noted that the number of mounting rod assemblies 13 used and the number of mounting parts 132 assembled on each mounting rod assembly 13 can be determined according to the number and arrangement of electronic modules fixed on the base frame 11 and the number and position of threaded holes on the electronic modules.

[0045] This embodiment is compatible with the mounting holes of electronic modules of different brands, specifications and types by providing the mounting rod assembly 13, which can not only ensure the precise alignment and fixed installation of various electronic modules, but also enable the flexible arrangement of the electronic modules for easy creation and use.

[0046] Further, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, a matching limiting structure is also provided between the second connecting part 1312 and the first connecting part 114, and the limiting structure can limit the mounting rod kit 13 in the axial direction of the first connecting part 114 to prevent sliding. Preferably, the limiting structure is a matching convex tooth provided between the first connecting part 114 and the second connecting part 1312. It should be considered that the denser the spacing of the convex teeth, the more accurately the mounting holes between the mounting member 132 and the electronic module are aligned in the axial direction of the first connecting part 114.

[0047] like Figure 1 , Figure 8 As shown, the module assembly 2 includes a control module 21, a voice recognition module 22, an audio playback module 23, a power supply module 24, a display module 25 and a visual recognition module 26, all of which belong to the prior art and do not belong to the improvement scope of the present utility model. Among them, the control module 21, the voice recognition module 22, the audio playback module 23 and the power supply module 24 are fixed on the base frame 11, and the display module 25 and the visual recognition module 26 are installed on the flip cover frame 12.

[0048] This embodiment uses an open frame assembly 1 to reasonably arrange and fix the modules of the module unit 2, which makes it easy to plug and unplug data cables on the data interfaces of each module, upload programs and content files, and does not affect the sound pickup and broadcasting effects of the voice recognition module 22 and the audio playback module 23, thereby ensuring the effect of voice interaction between the robot and the outside. By setting a reversible flip cover frame 12, the modules inside the device can be protected during use, and sufficient module connection and disassembly space can be provided for creation.

[0049] Example 2

[0050] like Figure 7 As shown, this embodiment further improves the frame assembly 1 of embodiment 1. The frame assembly 1 also includes an extension bracket 14. The extension bracket 14 is a detachable bracket assembly. One end of the two extension brackets 14 are rotatably connected to the two second support components 113 respectively, and the other end is detachably connected to the two corresponding first support components 112 respectively. When the use state of the flip frame 12 is a tilted position, the two extension brackets 14 can also support and fix the flip frame 12, so that the device can achieve a structural stability when working in various forms.

[0051] Furthermore, the two extension brackets 14 are both equipped with mounting rod assemblies 13, and the mounting rod assemblies 13 on the extension brackets 14 are used to install electronic modules for extending the functions of the robot, and the electronic modules for extending the functions are existing Internet of Things modules, temperature and humidity sensor modules, navigation modules or other electronic modules compatible with Arduino Mega. The connection between the extension bracket 14 and the mounting rod assembly 13 is the same as that of the first connecting component 114. By arranging the mounting rod assembly 13 on the extension bracket 14, creative students can give full play to their creativity, learn and master the application of various intelligent modules, and create personalized robots with various special functions and application scenarios.

[0052] It should be noted that after the expansion bracket 14 is installed with the expansion function module, the flip frame 12 needs to be set in an inclined position or a position perpendicular to the bottom plate 111 so that there is enough space above the mounting rod assembly 13 to install the expansion function module.

[0053] Furthermore, the outer surface of the base frame 11 is provided with a first assembly part 115 for assembling structural components of the robot's extended functions, which may be traveling structural components, mechanical arm components, or structural components of other functions. The outer surface of the flip frame 12 is provided with a second assembly part 121 for assembling the robot's exterior decorative components; the first assembly part 115 and the second assembly part 121 are magnetic structures, snap-on structures, plug-in structures, or other fixed installation structures.

[0054] Furthermore, the visual recognition module 26 is rotatably connected to the flip frame 12. Preferably, the visual recognition module 26 is connected to the flip frame 12 via a damping rotation connector 3, so that the visual recognition module 26 can rotate around one side of the flip frame 12. Preferably, a servo-controlled three-dimensional rotating pan-tilt can be installed between the visual recognition module 26 and the flip frame 12, so that the orientation of the camera of the visual recognition module 26 is more multi-dimensional, which is convenient for primary and secondary school students to create robots with more application functions and application scenarios.

[0055] Example 3

[0056] like Figure 8As shown, the electronic modules of the module assembly 2 are optimized in this embodiment. All modules of the module assembly 2 are existing open source modules. Preferably, the control module 21 adopts the Arduino Mega single-chip microcomputer development board, the voice recognition module 22 adopts the XNT-8738 voice recognition module, the visual recognition module 26 adopts the Huskeylens visual recognition module, the display module 25 adopts the TJC-X5 series high-definition serial port display screen, the audio playback module 23 is a universal digital audio player, which is electrically connected to the voice recognition module 22, and the power supply module 24 adopts a lithium battery power module that meets the requirements of the control module 21, and can supply power to the control module 21 or other modules through a DC plug or pin. The voice recognition module 22, the display module 25 and the visual recognition module 26 are all plug-in electrically connected to the control module 21 through DuPont wires or module-specific connection wires, and data is transmitted with the control module 21 through UART or I2C communication.

[0057] The human-machine interactive robot of this embodiment adopts an open source module component 2 to fix the control module 21 and the voice recognition module 22, audio playback module 23, power supply module 24, display module 25 and visual recognition module 26 compatible therewith on the frame component 1 of embodiment 1 and embodiment 2, thereby meeting the core needs of primary and secondary school students to independently develop and create personalized human-machine interactive robots. There is no need to separately purchase and match the required modules and to build or process the connecting components by themselves. It also overcomes the technical defect of the mismatch between the existing building equipment and the module connection hole spacing. The creator can directly use the human-machine interactive robot of this embodiment to perform autonomous programming to realize a human-machine interactive robot with voice interaction and visual interaction functions. It can also create a human-machine interactive robot with a personalized image and interactive content through content file editing, appearance design and production, and connection of other extended functional components. It can also absorb students who cannot program to join in the creation of the robot, increase their understanding and cognition of artificial intelligence technology, and provide a convenient and interesting core development carrier for the popularization and application of artificial intelligence technology among primary and secondary school students.
