Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wearable shoes, specifically a robotic wearable shoe. Background Technology
[0002] As robotics technology continues to advance, its application scenarios are becoming increasingly complex, ranging from home services to industrial manufacturing and extreme environment exploration. The need for robots to "wear shoes" is gradually becoming apparent. For example, in scenarios such as outdoor inspections, agricultural harvesting, and disaster relief, robots need to traverse complex terrains such as mud, sand, and gravel roads. By wearing shoes, they can absorb impact and protect the robot's joints and sensors.
[0003] In existing technologies, the soles of robot-worn shoes are generally made of simple rubber material. This makes them prone to hardening due to low temperatures and reduced friction when walking on muddy or icy surfaces, thus reducing their anti-slip performance.
[0004] Therefore, a robotic wearable shoe is proposed to address the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, at least one technical problem raised in the background art is solved.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: A robot wearable shoe, comprising a sole, with an aluminum plate and an upper sequentially arranged on the upper part of the sole; multiple mounting holes are provided on the surfaces of the sole and the aluminum plate, and corresponding holes are provided on the bottom of the aluminum plate and the upper; a fixing plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sole; a connecting plate is rotatably connected to the bottom of the fixing plate; multiple protruding teeth are fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting plate; the protruding teeth are inclined and raised; a fixing component for fixing the connecting plate is provided on the surface of the fixing plate; by using natural rubber material for the sole, the robot maintains stability when walking on different surfaces (such as wet or uneven surfaces). Natural rubber material can be designed with different functions: waterproof, anti-slip, wear-resistant, high-temperature resistant, insulating, antistatic, acid and alkali resistant, etc.; the aluminum plate combined with the sole... It can provide stronger support for the robot, helping it maintain balance in complex environments; the upper is also made of rubber, which can waterproof and dustproof the robot's legs; multiple mounting holes are provided to facilitate the fixing of the robot's legs and shoes with screws; in addition, the holes in the aluminum plate and upper can be round or other shapes to match the shape of the robot's legs; the connecting plate is fixed at both ends of the fixed plate by rotating it. When the protrusions face the ground, the connecting plate is in the unfolded state, which is suitable for walking in harsh environments such as outdoor mud and ice. The protrusions will penetrate the mud and ice under the pressure of the robot's own weight to improve the anti-slip performance of the robot when walking. When the connecting plate is in the closed state, it is suitable for hard surfaces such as cement, tiles, and rocks, so that the protrusions will not affect the robot's walking.
[0007] Preferably, the fixing component includes a pair of protrusions; the protrusions and the fixing plate are fixedly connected and symmetrically distributed; the outer wall of the protrusion is fixedly connected with an elastic buckle; the end of the elastic buckle has a Y-shaped structure; the surface of the connecting plate has a locking hole; when the connecting plate is fixed, the elastic buckle that should be expanded supports the inner wall of the locking hole. When the connecting plate needs to be disassembled, the two sides of the pair of elastic buckles can be pressed to make them press into the inside of the locking hole. Then the connecting plate can be rotated half a turn, so that during the rotation, it directly squeezes the elastic buckle of the other protrusion. The elastic buckle will first shrink inward under the squeezing action of the connecting plate, and then recover under the action of elasticity and squeeze the locking hole, so as to realize the device quickly fixes the connecting plate and reduce the amount of work required to fix the connecting plate when it is rotated.
[0008] Preferably, an elastic rod is fixed between the inner walls of the pair of protrusions; the elastic rod is used to tighten the elastic buckle; by setting the elastic rod, when the connecting plate is installed, it will squeeze the elastic buckle to make the elastic buckle retract inward, and the elastic rod will also bend and deform accordingly. When the elastic buckle returns to its original state, the elastic rod can provide additional reset pressure for the elastic buckle, which facilitates the elastic buckle to quickly fix the buckle to the card hole on the surface of the connecting plate.
[0009] Preferably, an airbag is fixed to the inner wall of the shoe upper; the airbag has a U-shaped structure; by setting the airbag, the airbag will fill the gap between the robot's leg and the internal cavity of the shoe upper, reducing the situation where the shoe shakes due to the gap between the robot and the shoe upper when the robot moves.
[0010] Preferably, a cushioning layer is fixed to the outer wall of the shoe upper; the surface of the cushioning layer has an arc-shaped structure; by setting the cushioning layer, the cushioning layer can provide an additional cushioning layer for the outside of the shoe, reducing the possibility of the robot's legs accidentally touching external objects while walking, thus preventing the shoe surface from being scratched or damaged.
[0011] The advantages of this utility model are:
[0012] 1. The robot wearable shoe described in this utility model is fixed at both ends of the fixed plate by rotating the connecting plate. When the protruding teeth face the ground, the connecting plate is in the unfolded state. At this time, it is suitable for walking in harsh environments such as outdoor mud and ice. The protruding teeth will penetrate into the mud and ice under the pressure of the robot's own weight to improve the anti-slip performance of the robot when walking.
[0013] 2. The robot wearable shoe described in this utility model achieves rapid fixation of the connecting plate by restoring the elastic buckle under the action of elastic force and squeezing the buckle hole, thereby reducing the amount of work required to fix the connecting plate when it rotates.

[0030] By using natural rubber for the sole 1, the robot maintains stability when walking on different surfaces (such as wet or uneven surfaces). Natural rubber can be designed with various functions: waterproof, slip-resistant, wear-resistant, high-temperature resistant, insulating, anti-static, and acid / alkali resistant. The aluminum plate 12, combined with the sole 1, provides stronger support for the robot, helping it maintain balance in complex environments. The upper 13, also made of rubber, provides waterproofing and dustproofing for the robot's legs. Multiple mounting holes 14 are provided for easy screw fixing of the robot's legs to the shoe. The holes in the aluminum plate 12 and upper 13 can be circular or other shapes to match the shape of the robot's legs. The connecting plate 16 is fixed to both ends of the fixing plate 15 by rotating it. When the protruding teeth 17 face the ground, the connecting plate 16 is in an unfolded state.

When the connecting plate 16 is closed, it is applicable to hardened surfaces such as cement, tiles, and rocks, so that the protruding teeth 17 will not affect the robot's walking.
[0031] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the fixing component includes a pair of protrusions 22; the protrusions 22 and the fixing plate 15 are fixedly connected and symmetrically distributed; the outer wall of the protrusions 22 is fixedly connected with elastic buckles 23; the end of the elastic buckles 23 has a Y-shaped structure; the surface of the connecting plate 16 is provided with a locking hole 2; when the connecting plate 16 is fixed, the elastic buckles 23 that should be expanded internally support the inner wall of the locking hole 2. When the connecting plate 16 needs to be disassembled, the two sides of the pair of elastic buckles 23 can be pressed to make them press into the inside of the locking hole 2. Then the connecting plate 16 can be rotated half a turn, so that during the rotation, it directly squeezes the elastic buckle 23 of the other protrusion 22. The elastic buckle 23 will first shrink inward under the squeezing action of the connecting plate 16, and then recover under the action of elasticity and squeeze the locking hole 2, so as to realize the device to quickly fix the connecting plate 16 and reduce the amount of work required to fix the connecting plate 16 when rotating.
[0032] Please see Figure 5 As shown, an elastic rod 3 is fixed between the inner walls of a pair of protrusions 22; the elastic rod 3 is used to tighten the elastic buckle 23; by setting the elastic rod 3, when the connecting plate 16 is installed, it will squeeze the elastic buckle 23 to make the elastic buckle 23 retract inward, and the elastic rod 3 will also bend and deform accordingly. When the elastic buckle 23 returns to its original state, the elastic rod 3 can provide additional reset pressure for the elastic buckle 23, so that the elastic buckle 23 can quickly fix the buckle hole 2 on the surface of the connecting plate 16.
[0033] Please see Figure 6As shown, an airbag 5 is fixed to the inner wall of the shoe upper 13; the airbag 5 has a U-shaped structure; by setting the airbag 5, the airbag 5 will fill the gap between the robot's leg and the internal cavity of the shoe upper 13, reducing the situation where the shoe shakes due to the gap between the robot and the shoe upper 13 when the robot moves.
[0034] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a cushioning layer 6 is fixed to the outer wall of the shoe upper 13; the surface of the cushioning layer 6 is an arc-shaped structure; by setting the cushioning layer 6, the cushioning layer 6 can provide additional cushioning for the outside of the shoe, reducing the situation where the robot's legs accidentally touch external objects when walking, thus causing the shoe surface to be scratched or damaged.
[0035] Working principle: By using natural rubber material for the sole 1, the robot maintains stability when walking on different surfaces (such as wet or uneven surfaces). Natural rubber can be designed with various functions: waterproof, slip-resistant, wear-resistant, high-temperature resistant, insulating, anti-static, acid and alkali resistant, etc. The aluminum plate 12, combined with the sole 1, provides stronger support for the robot, helping it maintain balance in complex environments. The upper 13 is also made of rubber, providing waterproof and dustproof protection for the robot's legs. Multiple mounting holes 14 are provided for easy screw fixing of the robot's legs to the shoe. The holes in the aluminum plate 12 and upper 13 can be circular or other shapes to match the shape of the robot's legs. The connecting plate 16 is fixed to both ends of the fixing plate 15 by rotating it. When the protruding teeth 17 face the ground, the connecting plate 16 is in an unfolded state, i.e. Figure 4As shown, this is suitable for walking in harsh environments such as outdoor mud and ice. The protruding teeth 17 will penetrate the mud and ice under the robot's own weight to improve the anti-slip performance of the robot when walking. When the connecting plate 16 is closed, it is suitable for hardened surfaces such as cement, tiles, and rocks, so that the protruding teeth 17 will not affect the robot's walking. When the connecting plate 16 is fixed, the elastic buckle 23 should be expanded to support the inner wall of the locking hole 2. When the connecting plate 16 needs to be disassembled, it can be pressed into the locking hole 2 by pressing the two sides of a pair of elastic buckles 23. Then, the connecting plate 16 can be rotated half a turn, so that it directly squeezes the elastic buckle 23 of the other protrusion 22 during the rotation. The elastic buckle 23 will first shrink inward under the squeezing action of the connecting plate 16, and then recover under the action of elasticity and squeeze the locking hole 2, so as to realize the device's control over the connecting plate 16. The rapid fixing reduces the workload required to fix the connecting plate 16 when it rotates; by setting the elastic rod 3, when the connecting plate 16 is installed, it will squeeze the elastic buckle 23 to make the elastic buckle 23 retract, and the elastic rod 3 will also bend and deform accordingly. When the elastic buckle 23 returns to its original state, the elastic rod 3 can provide additional reset pressure for the elastic buckle 23, which facilitates the elastic buckle 23 to quickly fix the buckle 23 to the buckle hole 2 on the surface of the connecting plate 16; by setting the airbag 5, the airbag 5 will fill the gap between the robot leg and the internal cavity of the shoe upper 13, reducing the situation where the shoe shakes due to the gap between the robot and the shoe upper 13 when the robot moves; by setting the buffer layer 6, the buffer layer 6 can provide additional cushioning for the outside of the shoe, reducing the situation where the robot's legs accidentally touch the outside objects when walking, thus reducing the possibility of the shoe surface being scratched or damaged.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model.
