[0023] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments; based on the embodiments in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Embodiment 1

[0025] Combined with the attached Figure 1 to the attached Figure 3 As shown, a direction adjustment component for a quadruped robot sensing instrument includes a base 1. A rotating table 2 is provided on the base 1. An internal gear 3 is provided inside the rotating table 2. A first gear 4 meshes with the inner side of the internal gear 3. The outer wall of the internal gear 3 is closely attached to the inner side of the rotating table 2. The first gears 4 are evenly distributed on the inner side of the internal gear 3, at least two. A second gear 5 is provided at the center of the rotating table 2. A third gear 6 meshes with one side of the second gear 5. A transmission shaft 7 is provided at the center of the second gear 5. A reversing component 8 is connected to one side of the transmission shaft 7. Sensing instruments 10 extending from the outer shell 9 are evenly provided on the outer side of the reversing component 8. The bottom of the outer shell 9 is frustum-shaped. The center of the frustum is a first through hole. The diameter of the frustum is larger than the diameter of the rotating table 2. A groove matching the rotating table 2 is provided around the frustum. A second through hole corresponding to the position of the drive shaft 14 is provided on the side of the outer shell 9.

[0026] With the above structure, when the quadruped robot is running and needs to monitor the surrounding environment, the sensing elements installed on its base 1 will be adjusted. The first gears 4 inside the rotating table 2 rotate, driving the internal gear 3 meshing with the first gears 4 to rotate. The internal gear 3 is connected to the rotating table 2, so the rotating table 2 rotates. Since the bottom of the outer shell 9 is frustum-shaped and the diameter of the frustum is larger than the diameter of the rotating table 2, the rotating table 2 drives the outer shell 9 above it to rotate. The sensing instruments 10 are installed on the outer shell 9 and will also rotate with the outer shell 9. When the angle of the sensing instrument 10 needs to be adjusted, the third gear 6 rotates, driving the second gear 5 meshing with the third gear 6. The transmission shaft 7 at the center of the second gear 5 transmits power to the reversing component 8, causing the sensing instrument 10 to rotate.

[0027] Embodiment 2

[0028] Based on Embodiment 1, combined with the attached Figure 1 , the attached Figure 2 and the attached Figure 4 As shown, the reversing component 8 includes a first bevel gear 11. A second bevel gear 12 is evenly provided in a circle around the first bevel gear 11. The second bevel gear 12 meshes with the first bevel gear 11. A placement table 13 is provided on one side of the second bevel gear 12. The second bevel gear 12 is connected to the placement table 13 and the drive shaft 14. The number of the second bevel gears 12 corresponds to the number of the placement tables 13 and the sensing instruments 10, at least three.

[0029] Through the above structure, the drive shaft 7 transmits power to the commutation assembly 8. One end of the drive shaft 7 is connected to the first bevel gear 11. The first bevel gear 11 rotates with the drive shaft 7. The second bevel gears 12 evenly arranged in a circle on the first bevel gear 11 also rotate around the drive shaft 14 by themselves as the first bevel gear 11 rotates. The placement table 13 connected to the drive shaft 14 also rotates with the drive shaft 14, so that the sensing instrument 10 installed on the placement table 13 adjusts its angle around the drive shaft 14.

[0030] The specific usage method is as follows: When the quadruped robot is running, the sensing instrument 10 on it needs to adjust the monitoring position. First, drive the rotating table 2 to rotate, driving the entire sensing instrument to rotate around the center of the base 1 to achieve a change in orientation. Then drive the commutation assembly 8 so that the placement table 13 on which the sensing instrument 10 is placed rotates around the axis connected to it to achieve a change in the monitoring angle, so as to achieve the purpose of all-round monitoring.

[0031] The drive motors connected to the first gear 4 and the third gear 6 are not shown in the drawings. The motor body is a prior art and will not be elaborated too much.

[0032] It should be noted that in this article, relational terms such as first and second are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the term "comprising", "including" or any other variant thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device comprising a series of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.
