Therefore, the features defined as "first", "second" can explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present application, the meaning of "multiple" is two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0031] In a modular robot, various modules can be used with the main body of the robot, and each module can use the same connector (same number of pins, arrangement, etc.). However, due to the different functions of the modules, the definitions of the pin signals are different, and if mixed or misaligned, it can cause the module or host to burn out. For example, one of the connectors has 16 pins, and the other connector has 18 pins. The connector with 16 pins can be misaligned and inserted into the corresponding connector seat of the 18-pin connector. In view of the above situation, the present application makes targeted foolproof design for the case of using the same pin connector for different modules and the case of different pins, to ensure that different modules have certain foolproof ability when used in the same use scenario, preventing the occurrence of electric appliance product burning the mainboard and the like.

[0032] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a module assembly and a robot, the module assembly comprising a first assembly and a second assembly, the module of the first assembly having a connector female seat, and the module of the second assembly having a connector male seat. Through the arrangement of the first foolproof structure 211, the second foolproof structure 311, the third foolproof structure 513 and the fourth foolproof structure 614, the modules in the first assembly can only be inserted with the corresponding modules in the second assembly, avoiding mutual confusion when the modules are inserted.

[0033] The module assembly provided by the embodiment of the present application will be described.

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6, the module assembly comprises a first assembly and a second assembly, the first assembly has three modules, the second assembly has three modules, each module of the first assembly has a connector female seat, and each module of the second assembly has a connector male seat for plugging with the connector female seat; in the first assembly, one of the modules has the first foolproof structure 211, and one of the modules has the third foolproof structure 513; in the second assembly, one of the modules has the second foolproof structure 311, and one of the modules has the fourth foolproof structure 614; the first foolproof structure 211 and the second foolproof structure 311 are plugged with each other, the third foolproof structure 513 is used for being disposed in a staggered mode with the fourth foolproof structure 614; the module with the first foolproof structure 211 cannot be plugged with the module with the fourth foolproof structure 614.

[0035] The modules of the first assembly have the connector female seat, and the modules of the second assembly have the connector male seat; if the foolproof structures are not arranged, each module in the first assembly can be plugged with any module in the second assembly, which leads to problems such as easy plugging error and staggered arrangement of the modules.

[0036] The first assembly has three modules, each module has the connector female seat, the first module has the first foolproof structure 211, the second module has the third foolproof structure 513, and the remaining one module does not have the first foolproof structure 211 and the third foolproof structure 513.

[0037] The second assembly has three modules, each module has the connector male seat, the first module has the second foolproof structure 311, the second module has the fourth foolproof structure 614, and the third module does not have the second foolproof structure 311 and the fourth foolproof structure 614.

[0038] The first foolproof structure 211 and the second foolproof structure 311 are mutually inserted and matched, that is, the module with the first foolproof structure 211 and the module with the second foolproof structure 311 can be mutually inserted. The third foolproof structure 513 is used for being mutually misaligned with the fourth foolproof structure 614, the module with the third foolproof structure 513 and the module with the fourth foolproof structure 614 can be mutually inserted, and when the two are inserted, the third foolproof structure 513 and the fourth foolproof structure 614 are misaligned with each other and do not interfere. Since the first foolproof structure 211 is arranged, the module with the first foolproof structure 211 in the first assembly cannot be mutually inserted with the module without the foolproof structure (referring to the second foolproof structure 311 and the fourth foolproof structure 614) in the second assembly. Since the third foolproof structure 513 is arranged, the module with the second foolproof structure 311 and the module without the foolproof structure (referring to the second foolproof structure 311 and the fourth foolproof structure 614) in the second assembly cannot be inserted with the module with the third foolproof structure 513 in the first assembly. Since the fourth foolproof structure 614 is arranged, the module with the first foolproof structure 211 and the module without the foolproof structure (referring to the first foolproof structure 211 and the third foolproof structure 513) in the first assembly cannot be inserted with the module with the fourth foolproof structure 614 in the second assembly.

Therefore, the modules in the first assembly and the second assembly can be mutually inserted in a preset manner, and confusion and misalignment can be avoided.

[0040] In some embodiments of the utility model, please refer to Figures 1 to 4The first assembly includes the first module 10 and the second module 20. The first module 10 has the first connector female seat 11, which has the first straight edge structure 113.

The second connector female seat 21 of the second module 20 has the first fool-proof structure 211, which is added compared with the structure of a common connector. The third connector male seat 31 of the third module 30 has the second fool-proof structure 311, which is added compared with the structure of a common connector. The fourth connector male seat 41 of the fourth module 40 has the second straight edge structure 413, which means that the narrow side of the second connector female seat 21 is a straight edge structure. Since the first connector female seat 11 and the fourth connector male seat 41 are common connectors, the first module 10 and the fourth module 40 can be inserted into each other. Since the third connector male seat 31 has the second fool-proof structure 311 (groove structure) added to the structure of a common connector male seat, the first connector female seat 11 and the third connector male seat 31 can be inserted into each other, i.e., the first module 10 and the third module 30 can be inserted into each other. Since the second connector female seat 21 has the first fool-proof structure 211 (protruding structure) added to the structure of a common connector female seat, the second connector female seat 21 and the fourth connector male seat 41 cannot be inserted into each other, i.e., the second module 20 and the fourth module 40 cannot be inserted into each other.

[0042] The connectors of the first module 10 and the fourth module 40 are common connectors without fool-proof structures, the structure of the female seat 11 of the first connector and the male seat 41 of the fourth connector is simple, and the use requirement can be met: the female seat 11 of the first connector can be respectively plugged with the male seat 31 of the third connector and the male seat 41 of the fourth connector, the female seat 21 of the second connector can be plugged with the male seat 31 of the third connector, and the female seat 21 of the second connector cannot be plugged with the male seat 41 of the fourth connector.

The size of the first female seat body 110 and the first male seat body 410 is matched, that is, the first female seat pin seat 112 and the first male seat groove 412 are matched, and the first female seat body 110 and the first male seat body 410 can be plugged with each other. The size of the first fool-proof structure 211 and the second fool-proof structure 311 is matched, so that the size of the female seat 21 of the second connector and the male seat 31 of the third connector is completely matched, and the two can be plugged with each other.

[0045] In some embodiments, the first straight edge structure 113 is two in number, and is arranged at two ends of the first female seat body 110 in the length direction. The second straight edge structure 413 is two in number, and is arranged at two ends of the fourth connector male seat 41 in the length direction.
