The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended only to explain the present invention and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0040] like Figure 1-3As shown, this embodiment provides a sweeping machine chassis, including a chassis body 1, a driving wheel 2, a laser radar 3 and a universal wheel 4. There are two driving wheels 2, and both driving wheels 2 are rotatably arranged at the bottom of the chassis body 1. The two driving wheels 2 are respectively located at the two ends of the left and right center lines 100 of the chassis body 1; the left and right center lines 100 are perpendicular to the traveling direction of the sweeping machine; the universal wheel 4 is installed at the bottom of the chassis body 1, and the universal wheel 4 is located on the front and rear center lines 200 of the chassis body 1. Along the traveling direction of the sweeping machine, the universal wheel 4 is located on one side of the left and right center lines 100; the front and rear center lines 200 are parallel to the traveling direction of the sweeping machine; the laser radar 3 is installed on the chassis body 1, and the laser radar 3 is located on the front and rear center lines 200. Along the traveling direction of the sweeping machine, the laser radar 3 is located on the other side of the left and right center lines 100.

[0041] The sweeper chassis of this embodiment distributes the driving wheels 2, universal wheels 4 and laser radar 3 around the chassis body 1, which can form an overall large space in the center of the chassis body 1, and thus can install more sweeper components (including power sources), thereby improving the space utilization of the sweeper chassis.

[0042] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, along the direction of travel of the sweeper, the laser radar 3 is located in front of the left-right center line 100, and the universal wheel 4 is located behind the left-right center line 100. This arrangement is conducive to improving the stability of the sweeper in movement and turning, and at the same time facilitates the laser radar 3 to obtain environmental information in the direction of travel of the sweeper.

[0043] In some embodiments, the chassis body 1 is circular; the chassis body 1 is provided with a first protrusion 11, which is protruding from the upper surface of the chassis body 1 and forms a first groove 12 on the lower surface of the chassis body 1; the laser radar 3 is fixed to the first protrusion 11. Mounting the laser radar 3 on the first protrusion 11 increases the installation height of the laser radar 3, which is conducive to improving the scanning range and scanning accuracy of the laser radar 3. The provision of the first protrusion 11 also forms the first groove 12 on the lower surface of the chassis body 1. The first groove 12 can also be used to accommodate components of the sweeper, thereby further improving the space utilization of the sweeper chassis and the internal space utilization of the sweeper.

[0044] In some embodiments, a through hole is provided on the side wall of the first groove 12 , thereby facilitating connection between components disposed in the first groove 12 and other components.

[0045] In this embodiment, the first groove 12 includes a first side wall, and along the moving direction of the sweeper, the first side wall is the side wall on the rear side of the first groove 12; the through hole includes a first through hole 13, and the first through hole 13 is arranged on the first side wall. In other words, the first through hole 13 is arranged to pass through along the moving direction of the sweeper.

[0046] In some embodiments, the chassis body 1 is provided with second grooves 14 corresponding to the driving wheels 2 one by one, and the driving wheels 2 are arranged in the corresponding second grooves 14, thereby making the chassis of the sweeping machine lower and having a wider range of applications.

[0047] Specifically, the driving wheel 2 is rotatably disposed in the corresponding second groove 14. It should be noted that a portion of the driving wheel 2 is located in the second groove 14, and the other portion is located outside the second groove 14, thereby enabling the driving wheel 2 to roll on the ground so that the sweeper can perform cleaning operations.

[0048] In some embodiments, the second groove 14 is recessed in the lower surface of the chassis body 1 and forms a second protrusion 15 on the upper surface of the chassis body 1. An installation space 5 for installing a roller brush is provided between the two second protrusions 15, so that the roller brush can be located between the two driving wheels 2, thereby improving the compactness of the layout of the chassis body 1 and achieving high space utilization.

[0049] In some embodiments, the first protrusion 11 and the two second protrusions 15 are arranged to form an installation space 5, and the roller brush can be installed on the side walls of the first protrusion 11 and the second protrusion 15 without setting up a separate installation structure, thereby further improving the compactness of the layout of the chassis body 1 and the space utilization.

[0050] Exemplarily, the first protrusion 11 and the second protrusion 15 are protrusions formed by stamping. In other words, the first protrusion 11, the second protrusion 15 and the chassis body 1 are an integrally formed structure, which is not only convenient for processing but also conducive to achieving lightweight.

[0051] In some embodiments, the outer circumference of the chassis body 1 includes a first curved surface 16 and a second curved surface 17. Along the direction of travel of the sweeper, the first curved surface 16 is located in front of the left-right centerline 100, and the second curved surface 17 is located behind the left-right centerline 100. The radius r of the circle encompassing the first curved surface 16 is smaller than the radius R of the circle encompassing the second curved surface 17. This arrangement increases the area of the rear end of the chassis body 1, allowing for the placement of more sweeper components. For example, a lifting power source used to lift the sweeper to overcome obstacles can be located at the rear end of the chassis body 1. At the same time, the area of the front end of the chassis body 1 is not increased, thus balancing the requirements for miniaturization and functional diversification of the sweeper.

[0052] In this embodiment, one second curved surface 17 is provided, and the second curved surface 17 is symmetrically arranged about the front-rear center line 200, thereby making the appearance of the sweeping machine more beautiful and facilitating the manufacture of the sweeping machine chassis.

[0053] Furthermore, there are multiple first curved surfaces 16, which are spaced apart circumferentially along the chassis body 1, and the multiple first curved surfaces 16 are all located in the same circle, so as to improve the aesthetics of the sweeper chassis and facilitate the assembly of the chassis body 1 and the sweeper shell.

[0054] Of course, in other embodiments, both the first curved surface 16 and the second curved surface 17 can be provided, and the first curved surface 16 is symmetrically provided about the front-rear center line 200, and the second curved surface 17 is symmetrically provided about the front-rear center line 200, so as to make the appearance of the sweeping machine more beautiful and facilitate the production of the sweeping machine chassis.

[0055] In some embodiments, along the direction of travel of the sweeper, the orthographic projection of the laser radar 3 on the preset plane is located in front of the orthographic projection of the drive wheel 2 on the preset plane. In some embodiments, along the direction of travel of the sweeper, the orthographic projection of the drive wheel 2 on the preset plane is located in front of the orthographic projection of the universal wheel 4 on the preset plane. The preset plane is perpendicular to the left and right center lines 100.

[0056] Such an arrangement makes the laser radar 3, drive wheel 2 and universal wheel 4 more dispersed on the chassis body 1, thereby making the overall space formed in the center of the chassis body 1 larger, facilitating the arrangement of more components without increasing the volume of the sweeper chassis.

[0057] In some embodiments, along the direction of travel of the sweeper, the distance between the laser radar 3 and the left and right center lines 100 is smaller than the distance between the universal wheels 4 and the left and right center lines 100. This arrangement, on the one hand, increases the distance between the drive wheel 2 and the universal wheels 4 along the direction of travel of the sweeper, which helps improve the stability of the sweeper during movement. On the other hand, it leaves a certain amount of space between the laser radar 3 and the front end of the sweeper chassis, facilitating the installation of the cleaning mechanism.

[0058] This embodiment further provides a sweeping machine, comprising the sweeping machine chassis as described above. The sweeping machine of this embodiment, by applying the sweeping machine chassis as described above, has corresponding functions and beneficial effects.

[0059] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the sweeper's travel direction is parallel to the front-to-back direction of the chassis body 1 and perpendicular to the left-to-right direction of the chassis body 1. The up-down direction of the chassis body 1 is the vertical direction. In other words, the front-to-back direction, the left-to-right direction, and the up-to-down direction of the chassis body 1 are perpendicular to each other. Furthermore, the side of the chassis body 1 facing the ground is the lower surface, and the side of the chassis body 1 facing away from the lower surface in the vertical direction is the upper surface. The laser radar 3 is located at the front end of the chassis body 1, the universal wheel 4 is located at the rear end of the chassis body 1, and the two drive wheels 2 are located on the left and right sides of the chassis body 1. The front-to-back centerline 200 is the centerline of the chassis body 1 along its front-to-back direction, and the left-to-right centerline 100 is the centerline of the chassis body 1 along its left-to-right direction. In other words, the front-to-back centerline 200 is perpendicular to the left-to-right centerline 100, and the intersection of the front-to-back centerline 200 and the left-to-right centerline 100 is the center of the circular chassis body 1.

[0060] Note that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described herein, and that various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions are possible for those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, while the present invention has been described in detail through the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments and may include many other equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is determined by the scope of the appended claims.
