Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of educational robot technology, specifically to a programming educational robot. Background Technology

[0002] With the popularization of science and technology education, programming education robots are widely used in primary and secondary schools and training institutions. These robots can not only teach students programming knowledge, but also cultivate their hands-on skills and logical thinking abilities.

[0003] However, most existing programming education robots are assembled from parts, with each component connected and fixed by plug-in or mounting parts. This structure is easily subject to collisions and impacts during movement, which can cause parts to loosen or fall off.

[0004] Therefore, existing technologies typically involve attaching flexible sheets to the robot's surface to reduce the impact it experiences during movement. However, this method not only makes the flexible sheets prone to detachment and wear, but also has limited shock absorption, leaving a significant amount of residual impact force. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a programming education robot to solve the technical problem of unsatisfactory shock absorption effect of flexible sheets in the prior art.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model specifically provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A programming education robot includes dual tracks and a support platform disposed between the dual tracks. The robot body is disposed on the support platform. Extending pillars are disposed at both ends of the support platform between the dual tracks. The extending pillars extend in the direction of travel of the dual tracks. A flat plate is disposed at the end of the extending pillar. The flat plate is connected to a front end plate through a shock-absorbing component. The shock-absorbing component includes a damping spring disposed in the middle of the flat plate and a plurality of flexible curved plates arranged on the surface of the flat plate. At least three of the flexible curved plates are arranged at equal angles around a vertical straight circle in their length direction to form a curved plate assembly. The plurality of curved plate assemblies are arranged at equal intervals on the surface of the flat plate.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a horizontal push rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the front end plate. The horizontal push rod extends to the bottom of the bearing platform and is slidably connected to the bearing platform through an installation component. The horizontal push rod slides along its own length direction. A swing block is connected to the end of the horizontal push rod through a sliding column. A sloping straight groove is opened on the surface of the swing block. The sliding column is slidably disposed in the sloping straight groove. The swing block is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the bearing platform through a rotating shaft. A friction-enhancing component is provided on the bottom side of the swing block away from the extended support column.

[0009] The horizontal push rod moves linearly in sync with the front end plate, pushing the swing block to rotate so that the friction enhancer comes into contact with the base surface.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the friction-enhancing component is a flexible rubber block.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the friction-enhancing component is a miniature suction cup.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the two sides of the flat carrier plate are provided with arc-shaped guards, which bend and extend toward the double tracks. The protective area formed by the two arc-shaped guards and the flat carrier plate covers the double tracks.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages:

[0014] This invention significantly reduces damage to the internal components of the robot caused by impact forces from the movement direction by incorporating shock-absorbing components at the front ends of both tracks, utilizing damping springs and flexible curved plates to absorb and release impacts from the front end plates. Furthermore, the use of multiple flexible curved plates to form a curved plate assembly structure creates multiple shock-absorbing units, improving the sensitivity of trigger pressure resistance, enhancing the structural stability of the robot, and reducing component loosening and detachment caused by collisions and impacts.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model provides a programming education robot, including double-sided tracks 1 and a support platform 2 disposed between the double-sided tracks 1. The robot body 3 is disposed on the support platform 2. The feature is that an extension pillar 4 is disposed at both ends of the support platform 2 between the double-sided tracks 1. The extension pillar 4 extends in the direction of travel of the double-sided tracks. A flat plate 5 is disposed at the end of the extension pillar 4. The flat plate 5 is connected to a front end plate 7 through a shock-absorbing component 6. The shock-absorbing component 6 includes a damping spring 8 disposed in the middle of the flat plate 5 and a plurality of flexible curved plates 9 arranged on the surface of the flat plate 5. At least three flexible curved plates 9 (Figure 2 shows a curved plate assembly 10 composed of four flexible curved plates 9) are arranged at equal angles around a vertical straight circle in the length direction to form a curved plate assembly 10. The plurality of curved plate assemblies 10 are arranged at equal intervals on the surface of the flat plate 5.

[0024] In this device, the robot body 3 integrates various sensors, execution modules, and communication modules. It performs various tasks through programming control, such as movement, vocalization, and grasping. Programming can be performed via external electronic devices, and data exchange is completed through the communication module to execute the program.

[0025] The flexible curved plate 9 is mounted on the flat carrier plate 5 and the front end plate 7 at both ends via mounting blocks. A limiting frame can be provided on the exterior of the end of the flexible curved plate 9 connected to the flat carrier plate 5, and this end of the flexible curved plate 9 is slidably positioned within the limiting frame. This allows the flexible curved plate 9 to, in addition to its own bending performance for pressure relief, change the direction of the impact force by sliding within the limiting frame, transferring it to the limiting frame, thus further mitigating shock absorption and reducing impact force.

[0026] A horizontal push rod 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the front end plate 7. The horizontal push rod 11 extends to the bottom of the support platform 2 and is slidably connected to the support platform 2 through the mounting part 12. The horizontal push rod 11 slides along its own length direction. The end of the horizontal push rod 11 is connected to a swing block 14 through a sliding column 13. The surface of the swing block 14 is provided with a sloping straight groove 15. The sliding column 13 is slidably disposed in the sloping straight groove 15. The swing block 14 is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the support platform 2 through a rotating shaft 16. A friction-enhancing part 17 is provided on the bottom side of the swing block 14 away from the extension column 4.

[0027] The horizontal push rod 11 moves linearly in sync with the front plate 7, pushing the swing block 14 to rotate, thereby causing the friction-enhancing component 17 to contact the base surface.

[0028] Furthermore, considering that educational robots are easily driven at high speeds by students during use, and that fast-moving educational robots experience greater impact forces when encountering obstacles, the compression of the flexible curved plate 9 and the shock-absorbing spring 8 is greater. Therefore, when these components return to their original position, the entire robot is prone to bouncing or tipping over. Therefore, this device includes components such as a horizontal push rod 11 at the bottom of the support platform 2. After the front end plate 7 is compressed by a certain preset distance, the horizontal push rod 11 pushes the swing block 14 to rotate, causing the friction-enhancing component 17 to contact the ground or tabletop (i.e., the base surface), increasing friction and preventing further compression of the front end plate 7, thus fixing the entire robot in that position. This not only reduces the risk of the robot tipping over but also transfers the impact force from the friction-enhancing component 17 to the ground or tabletop base, reducing the impact pressure on the robot.

[0029] Among them, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the friction enhancer 17 can be disposed on the cut bevel surface of the swing block 14 to maximize the contact area with the base surface. The bevel straight groove 15 is configured as follows... Figure 3 As shown, when the front end plate 7 is not compressed, the swing block 14 is set horizontally, and the end of the inclined straight groove 15 near the slide column 13 is located at a low position.

[0030] In one embodiment, the friction-enhancing component 17 is a flexible rubber block to increase the friction force on the base surface.

[0031] In addition, as a second embodiment of the friction enhancer 17, the friction enhancer 17 is a miniature suction cup. The miniature suction cup can be squeezed and degassed when in contact with the base surface, thus adhering to the base surface. This allows the overall robot to be more stably fixed to the base surface when it is impacted, without causing large movements such as shaking or tipping over, which could lead to the assembly robot falling and getting injured.

[0032] In addition, curved guardrails 18 are provided on both sides of the flat plate 5. The curved guardrails 18 bend and extend towards the tracks 1 on both sides. The protective area formed by the two curved guardrails 18 and the flat plate 5 encloses the tracks 1 on both sides.

[0033] The above embodiments are merely exemplary embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. The scope of protection of this application is defined by the claims. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or equivalent substitutions to this application within its substance and scope of protection, and such modifications or equivalent substitutions should also be considered to fall within the scope of protection of this application.
