[0023] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , an embodiment provided by the present invention: A servo wheel structure of a robot, including a lower bottom plate 1, a central gear 2 is arranged on the lower bottom plate 1, the upper surface center position of the central gear 2 is fixedly installed with an upper rotating shaft 3, four corners of the upper surface of the lower bottom plate 1 are fixedly installed with support columns 4, the top ends of the support columns 4 are fixedly installed with an upper top plate 5, the upper surface center position of the upper top plate 5 is fixedly installed with an encoder 6, the input end of the encoder 6 is fixedly connected with the upper rotating shaft 3, one side of the upper surface of the upper top plate 5 is fixedly installed with a steering motor 7 through a fixing bolt, the output shaft of the steering motor 7 passes through the upper top plate 5 and is fixedly connected with a driving gear 8, and the driving gear 8 is meshed with the central gear 2;
[0024] Further, specifically referring to the attached drawings of the specification Figure 2 As shown, in order to improve the overall accuracy of steering, the diameter of the central gear 2 is larger than that of the driving gear 8. The method of driving the large gear to rotate by the small gear can have a certain steering deceleration effect, that is, when the small gear rotates one circle, the large gear rotates a certain angle. Thus, the angle deflection is carried out through the rotation of the reduction gear, and in this way, the overall accuracy of steering can be effectively improved.
[0025] According to the above structure, the steering motor 7 can drive the driving gear 8 at the bottom through its output shaft to rotate. When the driving gear 8 rotates, it will drive the central gear 2 on one side to rotate synchronously, providing the gear rotation condition for the subsequent angle deflection of the steering wheel;
[0026] And the present utility model is provided with an encoder 6. The encoder 6 is a common technical product in existing industrial information acquisition devices and is a mature existing technology. It is a device that compiles signals (such as bit streams) or data and converts them into signal forms that can be used for communication, transmission, and storage. The encoder converts angular displacement or linear displacement into electrical signals. The former is called a code disk, and the latter is called a code scale;
[0027] When used in the present utility model, when the central gear 2 rotates driven by the driving gear 8, the rotation angle of the central gear 2 can be transmitted to the encoder 6 through the upper rotating shaft 3. Thus, the data of the rotation angle can be collected through the encoder 6. In this way, it can assist the debugging personnel to understand the deflection angle ratio relationship between the driving gear 8 and the central gear 2 when the steering motor 7 rotates one circle. For example, when the driving gear 8 rotates one circle, the central gear 2 deflects 15°. Thus, it can conveniently provide certain deflection angle data support, improve the debugging efficiency, increase the debugging control accuracy of the angle deflection, and has good technical effects of data collection and auxiliary debugging, with good practical performance and more convenient use.
[0028] In this embodiment, in order to ensure the transmission effect at the bottom of the central gear 2, a lower rotating shaft 9 is fixedly installed at the central position of the lower surface of the central gear 2. The lower rotating shaft 9 penetrates through the lower bottom plate 1, and the lower rotating shaft 9 is rotationally connected to the lower bottom plate 1 through a bearing;
[0029] Further, a wheel body seat 10 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the lower rotating shaft 9, and a rotating shaft 11 is rotationally installed between the wheel body seats 10 through a bearing.
[0030] In this embodiment, in order to ensure the normal walking use of the steering wheel structure, a moving wheel 12 is sleeved on the outer surface of the middle part of the rotating shaft 11. The moving wheel 12 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 11, and one end of the rotating shaft 11 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the walking motor 13. The walking motor 13 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of one side of the wheel body seat 10 through bolts;
[0031] With this structural design, the driving motor 13 can drive the rotating shaft 11 to rotate through its output shaft. When the rotating shaft 11 rotates, the moving wheel 12 can rotate synchronously, so that the normal rotation and movement of the steering wheel structure of the present invention can be ensured by the rotation of the moving wheel 12.
[0032] In this embodiment, in order to improve the comprehensive servo control effect of the servo steering wheel, both the steering motor 7 and the driving motor 13 are servo motors.
[0033] Working principle: When in use, the present invention can be installed in the steering wheel installation area of an external AGV robot to ensure the normal use of the steering wheel;
[0034] When the steering wheel of the present invention needs to move, the driving motor 13 can drive the rotating shaft 11 to rotate through its output shaft. When the rotating shaft 11 rotates, the moving wheel 12 can rotate synchronously, so that the normal rotation and movement of the steering wheel structure of the present invention can be ensured by the rotation of the moving wheel 12, and its normal use effect can be ensured;
[0035] When the steering angle needs to be deflected, the steering motor 7 can rotate. When the steering motor 7 rotates, it will drive the driving gear 8 to rotate synchronously through its output shaft, and thus drive the central gear 2 to rotate through the rotation of the driving gear 8;
[0036] When the central gear 2 rotates, it actually drives the wheel body seat 10 at the bottom to deflect by a certain angle through the lower rotating shaft 9, so that the angle deflection work of the steering wheel structure of the present invention can be completed, facilitating the steering process of the steering wheel structure;
[0037] The present invention can have a certain steering deceleration effect by driving the large gear to rotate through the small gear, that is, when the small gear rotates one circle, the large gear will rotate a certain angle (specifically based on the size ratio of the two gears), so as to deflect the angle through the rotation of the large and small reduction gears, thereby effectively improving the overall accuracy of the steering angle;
[0038] Moreover, the present invention is provided with an encoder 6. When in use, when the central gear 2 rotates driven by the driving gear 8, the rotation angle of the central gear 2 can be transmitted to the encoder 6 through the upper rotating shaft 3, so that the encoder 6 can collect the data of the rotation angle. In this way, it can assist the debugging personnel to understand the proportional relationship between the deflection angles of the driving gear 8 and the central gear 2 when the steering motor 7 rotates one circle, so as to facilitate the provision of certain deflection angle data support, improve the debugging efficiency, increase the debugging control accuracy of the angle deflection, and has good technical effects of data collection and auxiliary debugging, with excellent practical performance and more convenient use;
[0039] Meanwhile, the utility model only uses two gears, one large and one small, for steering rotation, which has the technical effects of simplified structure and low manufacturing cost. It avoids using complex gear transmission structures, is convenient for maintenance and repair. The motor is directly connected to the transmission gear with a single gear, which can achieve continuous rotation in the same direction, without redundant wire harness constraints, effectively avoiding winding situations, improving the use effect, reducing the use limitations. Moreover, with the independent driving effect of two motors, it can drive the steering wheel structure to perform automatic forward, backward and automatic steering operations, with independence in movement and steering, and no interference between steering and movement, effectively improving the structural performance.

Therefore, from any point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive.
