The expansion interface 3 is used to connect other supporting equipment. The supporting equipment can specifically be a pet feeder, a humidifier, an aromatherapy device and the like. The supporting equipment is powered by the expansion interface 3, thereby diversifying the functions of the charging pile.
[0022] In this embodiment, the interior of the charging base 1 is hollow, and two groups of connecting columns 4 are provided on the top inner wall of the charging base 1. Two groups of reinforcing ribs 5 are provided between the two groups of connecting columns 4. The expansion interface 3 is located between the two groups of reinforcing ribs 5. A pin connector 6 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the expansion interface 3, and a dust cover 7 is snap-fitted and installed on the top of the expansion interface 3. A positioning groove 22 is provided at the edge of the top wall of the charging base 1, and the positioning groove 22 is used to position the supporting equipment installed on the top of the charging base 1.
[0023] In this embodiment, a charger core board 8 is fixedly mounted on the connecting column 4, a support frame 9 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the charger core board 8, a power control board 10 is fixedly mounted on the left side of the support frame 9, and the power control board 10 is respectively connected to the charger core board 8 and the pin connector 6 through wires. A charging interface 11 and a power indicator light 12 are provided on the power control board 10, and a through hole 13 corresponding to the charging interface 11 and the power indicator light 12 is opened on the side wall of the charging base 1. The charging interface 11 is connected to the indoor socket through a charging line, thereby powering the electronic components in the charging base 1. When the charging base 1 is powered on, the power indicator light 12 is always on.
[0024] In this embodiment, an infrared emitting module 14 is installed on the top of the charger core board 8, and a light-transmitting plate 15 corresponding to the position of the infrared emitting module 14 is installed on the front side wall of the charging base 1. The infrared generating module 14 emits an infrared signal, and the signal is transmitted through the light-transmitting plate 15 on the front side to the outside of the charging base 1 for easy recognition by the robot.
