The terminology used in the description herein is for describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application.
[0035] Embodiment 1,
[0036] Referring to Figures 1 to 5 An obstacle-triggering mechanism comprises a linkage assembly 10, the linkage assembly 10 comprises a pressing piece 12 and a linkage mechanism 11, the pressing piece 12 is used for rotatingly connecting an external moving wheel shell 30, a first end of the pressing piece 12 is used for moving close to or away from an external clutch assembly 20, and the pressing piece 12 is abutted against the clutch assembly 20 after moving close to the clutch assembly 20, so that the clutch assembly 20 is in a power-off state. The pressing piece 12 makes the clutch assembly 20 in a power transmission state after moving away from the clutch assembly 20.
[0037] The linkage mechanism 11 has a force receiving end 114 and a driving end 115, the force receiving end 114 is fixedly connected with an external body 60, the driving end 115 is connected with a second end of the pressing piece 12, the body 60 drives the force receiving end 114 to rotate in a first direction when the front end of the body 60 is lifted, and drives the driving end 115 to move downward, and the driving end 115 drives the first end of the pressing piece 12 to move away from the clutch assembly 20 after moving downward.
[0038] The following is described by taking the pressing piece 12 abutting against the outer periphery of the clutch assembly 20 to make the clutch assembly 20 in a power-off state as an example: during assembly, the linkage mechanism 11 and the pressing piece 12 can be rotatingly connected or slidingly connected, and when the linkage mechanism 11 and the pressing piece 12 are slidingly connected, the following is described:
[0039] When the body 60 contacts with the obstacle, as the body 60 advances, the obstacle lifts the front end of the body 60, so that the front end of the body 60 is lifted, at this time, the walking wheels 31 of the walking device remain in contact with the ground, so that the walking device swings out relative to the body 60, that is, the walking device swings downward relative to the body 60, which is equivalent to the rear end of the body 60 swings upward relative to the walking device, so that the body 60 drives the force receiving end 114 to rotate in the first direction, thereby causing the driving end 115 of the connecting rod mechanism 11 to move downward, and at the same time, since the driving end 115 is in sliding connection with the second end of the pressing piece 12, when the driving end 115 moves downward, the driving end 115 will slide along the end wall of the pressing piece 12 to push or pull the connecting part of the pressing piece 12, forcing the pressing piece 12 to move upward relative to one end of the clutch assembly 20 to move away from the clutch assembly 20, so that the clutch assembly 20 is in a power cut-off state; when the obstacle is removed, the body 60 is reset downward to reset the force receiving end 114, at this time, the driving end 115 and the pressing piece 12 are also reset with the body 60, so that the clutch assembly 20 is reset to a transmission state.
[0040] Similarly, when the connecting rod mechanism 11 and the pressing piece 12 are in rotary connection, when the front end of the body 60 is lifted, the body 60 drives the force receiving end 114 to rotate in the first direction, and the driving end 115 moves downward, at this time, the driving end 115 exerts a downward force on the pressing piece 12, so that the first end of the pressing piece 12 moves upward and separates from the clutch assembly 20, so that the clutch assembly 20 is in a transmission state; when the obstacle is removed, the body 60 is reset downward to reset the force receiving end 114, at this time, the driving end 115 and the pressing piece 12 are also reset with the body 60, so that the clutch assembly 20 is reset to a power cut-off state.
[0041] Specifically, the obstacle-triggering mechanism in the embodiment is applied to a walking device (such as a sweeping robot or a floor washing machine), the force receiving end 114 of the connecting rod mechanism 11 is fixedly connected with the body 60 through a shaft or a rod, and the driving end 115 is connected with the pressing piece 12, when the walking device is in an initial state, the first end of the pressing piece 12 abuts against the clutch assembly 20, so that the clutch assembly 20 is in a power cut-off state, and after the clutch assembly 20 is connected with the obstacle-clearing mechanism in the walking device, the obstacle-clearing mechanism is in a static state (i.e., a non-working state).
[0042] When the body 60 encounters an obstacle, the obstacle lifts the front end of the body 60 as the body 60 advances, at which time the walking device swings downward relative to the body 60, that is, the rear end of the body 60 swings upward relative to the walking device, so that the body 60 drives the force receiving end 114 of the connecting rod mechanism 11 to rotate in the first direction, and further drives the driving end 115 of the connecting rod mechanism 11 to move downward, so as to drive the pressing piece 12 away from the clutch assembly 20, and further drive the clutch assembly 20 to be in a transmission state, and drive the obstacle crossing assembly to rotate and assist in crossing the obstacle. In this way, the obstacle crossing assembly triggering process only relies on the lifting of the front end of the body 60, and since it does not involve algorithms, communication and control, the obstacle crossing triggering mechanism is relatively simple, and since the obstacle crossing triggering mechanism is not affected by environmental factors such as temperature and humidity, the reliability of the obstacle crossing triggering mechanism is relatively high. In addition, since the obstacle crossing triggering mechanism does not require electricity, the power consumption of the automatic cleaning device is low.
[0043] It should be noted that the connecting rod mechanism 11 in the embodiment can be connected by a plurality of connecting rods, or can be a single connecting rod or a strip-shaped or block-shaped structure to rotate or slide with the pressing piece 12. When the front end of the body 60 is lifted, the pressing piece 12 is forced to move away from the clutch assembly 20. That is, the number of connecting rods of the connecting rod mechanism 11 is not limited to 1, 3, and the number of connecting rods of the connecting rod mechanism 11 can also be 2, 4, 5, etc.
[0044] As a preferred, the axis of the force receiving end 114 is coaxial with the swing axis of the walking device. It can be understood that one end of the walking device is rotatably connected to the body 60, that is, the walking device is swingably connected to the body 60.
[0045] As a preferred, the pressing piece 12 in the embodiment is rotatably connected with the driving end 115, and rotates away from the clutch assembly 20 when the driving end 115 moves downward.
[0046] Specifically, when the front end of the body 60 is lifted, the body 60 drives the force receiving end 114 to rotate in the first direction, and since the pressing piece 12 is rotatably connected with the driving end 115, the pressing piece 12 can move away from the clutch 21 at this time.
[0047] It should be noted that the pressing piece 12 and the driving end 115 can be rotatably connected by a pin shaft or a rotating shaft or a hinge, etc. Compared with sliding connection between the two, the motion track of the rotating connection is circular motion, and the motion law is relatively simple.
[0048] Further, the connecting rod mechanism 11 has a guide groove 1121, the guide groove 1121 has a limiting piece 1122 therein, one end of the limiting piece 1122 is fixedly connected with the external moving wheel housing 30, and the other end of the limiting piece 1122 is provided in the guide groove 1121 and is in sliding cooperation with the guide groove 1121 when the force receiving end 114 moves in the first direction.
[0049] Specifically, during assembly, the limiting member 1122 can be mounted on the housing of the walking device, i.e., the limiting member 1122 is mounted on the mobile wheel housing 30 and slides through the guide groove 1121. In this way, during the movement of the connecting rod mechanism 11, the connecting rod mechanism 11 can move along the predetermined trajectory due to the sliding fit of the guide groove 1121 and the limiting member 1122, and is not easy to deviate from the original trajectory, so that the pressing member 12 can move away from or approach the clutch assembly 20 along the specified trajectory.
[0050] It should be noted that the guide groove 1121 can be integrally formed on the connecting rod mechanism 11, and the limiting member 1122 can be a pin or a bolt with a limiting head structure; of course, in another embodiment, the limiting member 1122 can be provided on the connecting rod mechanism 11, and the guide groove 1121 can be formed on the walking device, which can be set according to actual needs.
[0051] Further, the connecting rod mechanism 11 includes a first connecting rod 111, a second connecting rod 112, and a second connecting rod 113. The force receiving end 114 is provided at the first end of the first connecting rod 111, the guide groove 1121 is provided on the second connecting rod 112, the first end of the second connecting rod 112 is rotatably connected to the second end of the first connecting rod 111, the second end of the second connecting rod 112 is rotatably connected to the first end of the second connecting rod 113, and the second end of the second connecting rod 113 is rotatably connected to the second end of the pressing member 12.
[0052] Specifically (see Figures 4 to 5 ), when the front end of the machine body 60 is lifted, the machine body 60 drives the force receiving end 114 of the first connecting rod 111 to rotate the first connecting rod 111 in the first direction to swing upward around the force receiving end 114, so as to drive the first end of the second connecting rod 112 to move upward. Due to the cooperation of the limiting member and the guide groove, the second end of the second connecting rod 112 moves downward, so that the second connecting rod 112 drives the second connecting rod 113 to move downward, so that the driving end 115 of the second connecting rod 112 presses the second end of the pressing member 12, and the pressing member 12 rotates, and then the first end of the pressing member 12 is separated from the clutch assembly 20.
[0053] By means of the rotatable connection of the plurality of connecting rods, the rotation angle of the connecting rod mechanism 11 is more flexible, and the movement direction of the pressing member 12 is more easily controlled.
[0054] It can be understood that in other embodiments, the first connecting rod 111 can be integrally formed with the machine body 60. That is, the first connecting rod 111 is omitted, and the first end of the second connecting rod 111 is rotatably connected to the machine body 60.
[0055] Further, the connecting rod assembly 10 further comprises a connecting shaft 13, one end of the connecting shaft 13 is fixedly connected with the force receiving end 114, the other end of the connecting shaft 13 extends to the outside along the axial direction of the connecting shaft 13, and is used for being connected with the body 60 outside, and the connecting shaft 13 drives the force receiving end 114 to rotate in the first direction when the front end of the body 60 is lifted.
[0056] Specifically, if the force receiving end 114 of the connecting rod assembly 10 is directly connected with the external equipment, the connecting rod assembly 10 and the shell of the body 60 can be completely attached, which can cause the movement of the connecting rod assembly 10 to be limited and the rotation to be not flexible enough. Therefore, in the embodiment, the connecting rod assembly 10 comprises the connecting shaft 13, and the connecting shaft 13 is connected with the body 60 during assembly. After the force receiving end 114 is connected with the connecting shaft 13, a certain interval can be formed between the force receiving end 114 and the shell of the body 60, so that the force receiving end 114 can move more flexibly.
[0057] More specifically, the end of the pressing piece 12 close to the clutch assembly 20 is further provided with a guide slope, the guide slope is used for guiding the pressing piece 12 to press or move away from the clutch assembly 20, so that the guide slope gradually guides the pressing piece 12 to press or move away from the clutch assembly 20, the pressing piece 12 and the clutch assembly 20 are connected or separated in a sliding manner, the impact on the pressing piece 12 and the clutch assembly 20 is reduced, the smoothness of the cooperation between the pressing piece 12 and the clutch assembly 20 is improved, and the problem of jamming of the pressing piece 12 and the clutch assembly 20 during cooperation is avoided. Further, the guide slope is inclined to the axial direction of the connecting shaft 13.
[0058] It can be understood that the guide slope is not limited to being arranged on the pressing piece 12. For example, in other embodiments, the side of the clutch assembly 20 close to the pressing piece 12 is provided with a guide slope. In still another embodiment, the side of the clutch assembly 20 close to the pressing piece 12 is provided with a first guide slope, and the side of the pressing piece 12 close to the clutch assembly 20 is provided with a second guide slope, the first guide slope and the second guide slope are matched, and specifically, the first guide slope and the second guide slope are connected in a sliding manner during the connection or separation of the pressing piece 12 and the clutch assembly 20.
[0059] Embodiment 2,
[0060] Referring to Figures 1 to 5 A walking device, comprising the clutch assembly 20, the mobile wheel shell 30, the obstacle crossing assembly 50, the driving piece 40 and the obstacle crossing triggering mechanism of the embodiment 1, the obstacle crossing assembly 50 is rotatably connected to the mobile wheel shell 30, and the driving piece 40 is in transmission connection with the obstacle crossing assembly 50 through the clutch assembly 20.
[0061] On the basis of the structure, the obstacle surmounting assembly 50 is rotatably installed on the mobile wheel housing 30 and is driven to rotate by the driving member 40. When the walking device is in the initial state, the clutch assembly 20 is in the power cut-off state under the pressing of the pressing member 12, and the obstacle surmounting assembly 50 is in the static state. When the walking device encounters an obstacle or a protruding ground, the front end of the machine body 60 is lifted upward under the action of the obstacle. At this time, the machine body 60 drives the force receiving end 114 to rotate in the first direction, so that the driving end 115 moves downward and drives the pressing member 12 to move away from the clutch assembly 20, so that the clutch assembly 20 is in the transmission state. At this time, the clutch assembly 20 is connected with the driving member 40, so as to trigger the obstacle surmounting assembly 50, so that the obstacle surmounting assembly 50 rotates and assists in surmounting the obstacle. After the machine body 60 surmounts the obstacle, the whole structure resets, and the walking device starts to work normally again. In this way, the triggering process of the obstacle surmounting assembly 50 only relies on the lifting of the front end of the machine body 60. Since it does not involve algorithms, communication and control, the obstacle surmounting triggering mechanism is relatively simple. In addition, the obstacle surmounting triggering mechanism is not affected by environmental factors such as temperature and humidity, so that the reliability of the obstacle surmounting triggering mechanism is relatively high. In addition, since the obstacle surmounting triggering mechanism does not need to be powered, the power consumption of the automatic cleaning equipment is low.
[0062] When the walking device in embodiment 2 is applied to cleaning equipment (such as a sweeping robot or a scrubber), one end of the mobile wheel housing 30 is rotatably connected to the machine body 60, so that the mobile wheel housing 30 can swing relative to the machine body 60, that is, the walking device can swing relative to the machine body 60. One end of the connecting rod mechanism 11 in the connecting rod assembly 10 is fixedly connected with the machine body 60. When the equipment encounters an obstacle, the machine body 60 will be lifted by the obstacle. At this time, the walking wheel of the walking device remains in contact with the ground, so that the walking device swings downward relative to the machine body 60, that is, the rear end of the machine body 60 swings upward relative to the walking device, so that the force receiving end 114 of the connecting rod mechanism 11 is driven to rotate in the first direction under the driving of the machine body 60, so as to drive the pressing member 12 to move away from the clutch assembly 20. At this time, the clutch assembly 20 is switched to the transmission state and is in transmission connection with the driving member 40, and drives the obstacle surmounting assembly 50 to rotate. The obstacle surmounting assembly 50 assists in surmounting the obstacle in the process of rotating. After the machine body 60 surmounts the obstacle, the machine body 60 resets, so that the force receiving end 114 of the connecting rod mechanism 11 resets, so as to drive the clutch assembly 20 to be in the power cut-off state, so as to disconnect with the driving member 40, so that the obstacle surmounting assembly 50 does not rotate any more, so as to make the equipment work normally.
[0063] Further, the obstacle-surmounting assembly 50 comprises a rotating shaft 52 and an obstacle-surmounting rod 51, the obstacle-surmounting rod 51 being connected with the rotating shaft 52 and being used to rotate with the rotating shaft 52, the driving member 40 being connected with the rotating shaft 52 and being used to drive the rotating shaft 52 to rotate when connected with the clutch assembly, the clutch assembly 20 comprising a clutch member 21 and an elastic member 22, the clutch member 21 being movably connected with the rotating shaft 52 in the axial direction of the rotating shaft 52, the clutch member 21 being fixedly connected with the rotating shaft 52 in the circumferential direction of the rotating shaft 52; the elastic member 22 being connected with the rotating shaft 52 and the clutch member 21 respectively, the clutch member 21 being used to compress the elastic member 22 when under stress, the elastic member 22 being able to provide an elastic stress to drive the clutch member 21 to be connected with the driving member 40 so as to drive the driving member 40 to rotate.
[0064] On the basis of the above structure, the driving member 40 in the embodiment is a driving gear, the driving gear being sleeved on the rotating shaft 52, the driving gear being meshingly connected with the plurality of transmission gears 32 on the moving wheel shell 30, when the machine body 60 does not encounter an obstacle, the clutch member 21 located at the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 52 is always abutted by the pressing member 12, so that the spring at the bottom of the clutch member 21 is compressed, the clutch member 21 is forced to be unable to be connected with the driving member 40, and the movement of the rotating shaft 52 is limited at the same time, so that the driving member 40 cannot drive the rotating shaft 52 to rotate even if the driving member 40 rotates;
[0065] When an obstacle is encountered, the connecting rod mechanism 11 drives the pressing member 12 to move away from the clutch member 21 under the drive of the machine body 60, at this time, the elastic member 22 elastically recovers, so that the clutch member 21 on the rotating shaft 52 can extend into the driving member 40 (driving gear), so that the driving member 40 can drive the rotating shaft 52 to rotate in the process of rotating, at the same time, the rotating shaft 52 drives the obstacle-surmounting rod 51 connected therewith to rotate when rotating, so as to assist the obstacle-surmounting rod 51 to surmount the obstacle, after the machine body 60 surmounts the obstacle, the whole obstacle-surmounting mechanism resets, and the equipment normally operates.
[0066] It should be noted that the elastic member in the embodiment can be selected from existing springs, elastic sheets or elastic columns and the like.
