Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to intelligent meal delivery technical field, especially in an automatic obstacle avoidance intelligent meal delivery vehicle. BACKGROUND

[0002] In today's rapidly changing technology, with the rapid development of artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things and automatic driving technology, all walks of life are experiencing unprecedented changes. In order to improve the quality of campus life, meet the needs of teachers and students for convenient and efficient catering services, and respond to the concept of energy saving and emission reduction and green campus, intelligent meal delivery vehicles have emerged as the times require. Intelligent meal delivery vehicles are equipped with high-precision maps and real-time positioning systems, combined with multiple sensors such as laser radars, ultrasonic sensors and cameras, which can accurately perceive the surrounding environment, including pedestrians, bicycles, other vehicles and static obstacles, and realize intelligent decision-making and path planning through built-in advanced algorithms, effectively avoiding collisions and ensuring safe and efficient shuttle in the campus. The existing intelligent meal delivery vehicles usually load food by carrying a cargo box, and then deliver food at different locations, but some food needs to be kept warm during delivery, and some food needs to be refrigerated during delivery. The existing intelligent meal delivery vehicles do not have the function of keeping warm or refrigerating, and the food taste is easily affected by the outside temperature during meal delivery. SUMMARY

[0003] The utility model aims at providing an intelligent meal delivery vehicle that can automatically avoid obstacles, heat and keep food warm, or refrigerate and cool food, and automatically adjust the heating and cooling effect according to the outside temperature, reducing the impact of temperature on food taste.

[0004] The above technical purpose of the utility model is realized by the following technical scheme: an intelligent meal delivery vehicle that can automatically avoid obstacles, comprising an intelligent vehicle body, a cargo box provided at the upper end of the intelligent vehicle body, a cargo door rotatably connected to the front and rear sides of the left and right ends of the cargo box, a heat preservation cavity provided at one end inside the cargo box, a refrigeration cavity provided at the other end inside the cargo box, a ventilation pipe provided at the upper end of the cargo box, an air extractor provided inside the ventilation pipe, and a gas guide pipe communicated with one end of the ventilation pipe;

[0005] The free end of the gas guide pipe is communicated with an adjusting shell, a first air inlet pipe is communicated between the adjusting shell and the heat preservation cavity, a heating resistance wire is provided inside the first air inlet pipe, a miniature refrigeration compressor is provided on the outside of the cargo box near the refrigeration cavity, a second air inlet pipe is communicated between the miniature refrigeration compressor and the adjusting shell in a relative arrangement with the first air inlet pipe, and a third air inlet pipe is communicated between the miniature refrigeration compressor and the refrigeration cavity.

[0006] Inside the regulating housing, a limit rod is provided between the end near the first air intake pipe and the end near the second air intake pipe. Inside the regulating housing, a limit plate is slidably connected to the limit rod. Outside the limit rod, a spring is provided between the limit plate and the regulating housing. Inside the regulating housing, at the end away from the air guide pipe, a sliding groove is provided. At the end of the limit plate near the sliding groove, a permanent magnet block is slidably connected to it. Inside the sliding groove, at the end away from the spring, an electromagnetic block that cooperates with the permanent magnet block is provided. At the outer end of the sliding groove, a thermistor that cooperates with the electromagnet is provided.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, during use, the cargo door is first opened, and then, depending on the type of food, it is placed in the insulation chamber for warmth or in the cooling chamber for cooling. The cargo door is then closed, and the food is delivered via the intelligent vehicle body. The exhaust fan is started, drawing in outside air, which enters the ventilation duct and then flows through the air guide pipe into the regulating shell. When the electromagnet is energized, it generates a repulsive force against the permanent magnet, pushing the permanent magnet to move relative to the slide groove. The permanent magnet drives the limiting plate to move relative to the limiting rod, compressing the spring. The air entering the shell through the air guide pipe is split as it passes the limiting plate, entering the first air intake pipe and the second air intake pipe respectively. After passing through the heating resistance wire, the air enters the insulation chamber, thus heating and keeping the food in the insulation chamber warm. After entering the second air inlet pipe, it is cooled by the micro refrigeration compressor, and then enters the refrigeration chamber through the third air inlet pipe, thus cooling the food in the refrigeration chamber. When the external temperature changes, the resistance of the thermistor changes, and the repulsive force between the electromagnet and the permanent magnet changes. The limiting plate moves under the action of the spring force and the repulsive force between the electromagnet and the permanent magnet, changing the amount of air entering the first and second air inlets after being diverted by the limiting plate. This can prevent the refrigeration effect in the refrigeration chamber from being affected when the external temperature is too high, and prevent the heating and insulation effect in the insulation chamber from being affected when the external temperature is too low.

[0008] A further feature of this invention is that each cargo door has a cylinder rotatably connected to both its upper and lower ends, which is rotatably connected to the cargo box.

[0009] A further feature of this invention is that a power supply wire for providing power is connected between the intelligent vehicle body and the cargo box.

[0010] A further feature of this invention is that a filter plate is provided at the end of the ventilation pipe away from the air guide pipe.

[0011] A further feature of this invention is that a switch controller is provided on the outside of the cargo box.

[0012] The electromagnet is powered and the permanent magnet block is arranged in a repelling state.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the beneficial effects that:

[0014] The food can be heated and kept warm or refrigerated, and the efficiency of keeping warm or refrigerating can be adjusted according to the change of the external temperature, so that the taste of the food is prevented from changing, air outside is extracted by the fan, repulsion is generated between the electromagnet and the permanent magnet block, the limiting plate is driven to move, air can be divided by the limiting plate, air can be heated by the heating resistance wire, the inside of the keeping warm cavity is heated and kept warm, air can be cooled by the miniature refrigeration compressor, the inside of the refrigeration cavity is cooled and refrigerated, the repulsion between the electromagnet and the permanent magnet block can be changed by the thermistor, so that the up-and-down moving distance of the limiting plate is changed, the amount of air that passes through the limiting plate is changed, so that when the external temperature is high, the amount of air entering the refrigeration cavity is increased, and when the external temperature is low, the amount of air entering the keeping warm cavity is increased.
