[0002] Service robots have a wide range of applications, mainly performing tasks such as maintenance, repair, transportation, cleaning, security, rescue, and monitoring. After several years of research and compilation, the International Federation of Robotics has given a preliminary definition of a service robot: a semi-autonomous or fully autonomous robot capable of performing service tasks beneficial to human health, excluding production equipment. Here, we also include other robots closely related to people's daily lives in this definition.

[0003] During the operation of specific embodiments, the inventors discovered the following defects:

[0004] The service robot's internal cavity can hold a tray, and then drinks or food can be placed inside the tray. However, the service robot vibrates during movement, and the internal tray cannot restrain the drinks or food, which can easily cause the drinks or food on the tray to spill.

[0005] It should be noted that the above content falls within the scope of the inventor's technical knowledge. Due to the vast and complex nature of the technical content in this field, the above content of this application does not necessarily constitute prior art. Utility Model Content

[0029] See attached document Figure 1-3 A service robot with a replaceable tray includes a service robot structure 1, a tray structure 2 is provided inside the service robot structure 1, a cup-shaped fixing structure 3 and a disc-shaped fixing structure 4 are provided on the top of the tray structure 2, and the service robot structure 1 is used to move the cups and discs placed inside the cup-shaped fixing structure 3 and the disc-shaped fixing structure 4 on the top of the tray structure 2.

[0030] The pallet structure 2 includes a pallet body 201. A connecting hole 202 is provided on one side of the top of the pallet body 201, and a pushing groove 204 is provided on the other side of the top of the pallet body 201. Insert shafts 203 are provided at the four corners of the pallet body 201. The number of connecting holes 202 is set to multiple, and the number of pushing grooves 204 is set to multiple. Then, the insert shafts 203 at the four corners of the bottom of the pallet body 201 are inserted into the insertion holes 109 for fixation, thereby maintaining the stability of the pallet structure 2.

[0031] Furthermore, the service robot structure 1 includes a service robot body 101 and a slider 106. The service robot body 101 has a placement compartment 102 inside. A ventilation fan 110 is provided on one side of the service robot body 101. Guide strips 103 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the placement compartment 102. Sliding grooves 104 are provided on both sides of the guide strips 103. Pin holes 105 are provided inside the guide strips 103. The slider 106 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the sliding grooves 104. A pin body 108 is provided between the block 106 and the pin hole 105. A support strip 107 is provided on the outer wall of the slider 106. The two ends of the support strip 107 are provided with insertion holes 109. First, the position of the tray body 201 can be adjusted according to the height of the cups and plates placed inside the placement compartment 102. The slider 106 is pushed to slide on the outer wall of the slide groove 104 to adjust the height of the support strip 107. Then, the pin body 108 is inserted into the slider 106 and the pin hole 105 to fix the position of the slider 106.

[0032] Furthermore, the cup-shaped fixing structure 3 includes two vertical rods 301 disposed inside the connecting hole 202. A positioning rod 303 is provided at the bottom of each vertical rod 301, and an auxiliary hole 302 is provided at the top of each positioning rod 303. The auxiliary hole 302 is slidably connected to the vertical rod 301. A positioning disk 304 is disposed between the two positioning rods 303. Sliding rods 305 are provided at both ends of the positioning disk 304, and the sliding rods 305 are slidably connected to the positioning rods 303. A rotating plate 306 is rotatably connected to the middle of 304. Limiting strips 307 are provided on both sides of the bottom of the rotating plate 306. When a cup needs to be placed, the cup is placed on the top of the tray body 201. At the same time, the two vertical rods 301 can be adjusted to insert into different positions inside the connecting hole 202 according to the size of the cup. Then, the spring pushes the slide rod 305 to slide on the outer wall of the positioning rod 303, so that the positioning plate 304 fits against the top of the cup. Then, the rotating plate 306 is rotated, and the rotating plate 306 drives the limiting strips 307 to rotate, so that the limiting strips 307 limit the front and back of the cup.

[0033] Furthermore, the disc-shaped fixing structure 4 includes a pushing block 401, which is slidably connected to the inside of the pushing groove 204. A pushing spring 402 is provided between the pushing groove 204 and the pushing block 401. A vertical hole 403 is opened in the middle of the pushing block 401. A pressure rod 404 is slidably connected inside the vertical hole 403. An auxiliary spring 405 is provided between the pressure rod 404 and the pushing block 401. A pressure ring 406 is provided at the top of the vertical hole 403. When the disc is placed on the top of the tray body 201, the pushing spring 402 pushes the pushing block 401 to slide on the inner wall of the pushing groove 204. At the same time, the auxiliary spring 405 pulls the pressure rod 404 downward. The pressure rod 404 drives the pressure ring 406 downward to fit against the top of the disc, thereby fixing the disc.

[0034] The cup-shaped fixing structure 3 and the saucer-shaped fixing structure 4 can be used to fix the saucer and cup, preventing the cup and saucer placed inside the service robot structure 1 from shaking when the service robot structure 1 moves.
