TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to high altitude operation equipment field, concretely relates to a lightweight hanging line operation robot. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the current high altitude operation field, especially the operation involving high altitude electric wire, optical cable, track and the like, the existing technical scheme has many limitations. At present, most of the operation robots are mainly small in range and mainly concentrate on the inspection of high voltage lines, among which the super high voltage power inspection robot developed by Shenyang Automation Institute of Chinese Academy of Sciences is representative. Although the robot has the obstacle crossing ability and the automatic inspection function, its function is still relatively single for the more extensive high altitude operation demand.
[0003] In addition to the robot inspection, the current high altitude operation still depends on the relatively traditional mode. For example, the unmanned aerial vehicle is often used for some high altitude operation tasks, but it has obvious shortcomings. On the one hand, the endurance of the unmanned aerial vehicle is short, and it cannot work for a long time, which greatly limits its application in large-scale high altitude operation. On the other hand, the unmanned aerial vehicle is of high risk, and its flight stability is easily affected by factors such as air flow in a complex high altitude environment, which has safety hazards, and its operation needs professional personnel to operate, which is difficult to operate. High, it also needs manual continuous operation, which is difficult to realize completely automatic operation, resulting in high cost.
[0004] The ground ladder truck is also a common high altitude operation means, however, this mode is limited by the height of the ladder itself, and can only handle low altitude operation, and cannot meet the demand of high altitude operation. At the same time, since its operation depends on the carrier vehicle, its use is greatly affected by the road surface and environment. For example, in rugged road surface, narrow space or bad environment, it is difficult to run, which leads to limited running environment, small use range, high cost and low running efficiency.
[0005] In high altitude operation, the environment is complex and dangerous, and the operation types are various, including but not limited to the installation, maintenance, repair and mounting of cable and the like. At present, the technical solution is less, and the overall adaptability is very limited, which cannot meet the diversification demand of high altitude operation. The market urgently needs a high altitude cable operation robot which can replace the traditional manual operation to improve the safety, efficiency and quality of high altitude operation. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
[0006] In order to solve the above problems, especially for the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a lightweight hanging line operation robot which can solve the above problems.
[0007] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical means:

[0027] 4, the utility model has functional diversity.
[0028] In addition to having the basic along the cable movement function, the equipped throwing device is a rudder throwing device, so that the robot has a throwing function, and tools, detection equipment or other auxiliary materials can be conveniently thrown during the high-altitude operation process, different high-altitude operation task requirements are met, such as throwing maintenance tools during high-altitude cable maintenance, and throwing detection instruments during detection, more operation means are provided for the high-altitude operation, the function range of the robot is expanded, and more operation types are met, instead of being limited to a single inspection function.

Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor belong to the protection scope of the utility model.
[0037] Embodiment 1
[0038] As Figs. 1-2As shown, a lightweight hanging line operation robot, including a frame 1, the side of the frame 1 is provided with an optical cable placing groove 2, the frame 1 is inserted with a rack 5, the insertion end of the rack 5 is connected with a speed reducer motor 11, the transmission end of the speed reducer motor 11 is connected with a power wheel 12 inserted with the optical cable placing groove 2, the bottom of the frame 1 is rotatably connected with an upper roller 13 inserted with the optical cable placing groove 2 and corresponding to the power wheel 12, the frame 1 is connected with a throwing device 3, a battery 6, an electronic control speed regulator 7, a wireless receiver 8 and a power switch 10, the throwing end of the throwing device 3 and the pressing end of the power switch 10 all penetrate the frame 1, the electronic control speed regulator 7 and the speed reducer motor 11 are connected with the battery 6 through the power switch 10, the wireless receiver 8 and the speed reducer motor 11 are connected with the electronic control speed regulator 7 respectively, and the throwing device 3 is connected with the battery 6 through the wireless receiver 8.
[0039] Working principle
[0040] Power on and power supply:
[0041] When the power switch 10 is turned on, the circuit of the battery 6 is turned on, the indicator light of the power switch 10 is turned on, and the robot enters the starting state. At this time, the battery 6 starts to supply power to the entire robot system, and provides power guarantee for the operation of each component.
[0042] The function of the electronic control speed regulator:
[0043] The electronic control speed regulator 7 is connected with the battery 6 through the power switch 10 and receives the electric energy of the battery 6. The electronic control speed regulator 7 has a reverse BEC output function, which on the one hand supplies a part of the electric energy to the wireless receiver 8 to supply power for it, and on the other hand, it receives the PWM signal from the wireless receiver 8. The PWM signal is a technology for controlling signals by adjusting the pulse width. In the utility model, after the wireless receiver 8 receives the external control signal, it converts it into the corresponding PWM signal and sends it to the electronic control speed regulator 7.
[0044] Driving of the speed reducer motor and movement of the robot:
[0045] The electronic control speed regulator 7 accurately controls the forward and reverse rotation and rotation speed of the speed reducer motor 11 according to the received PWM signal. The speed reducer motor 11 is installed at the plug-in end of the rack 5, and the transmission end of the speed reducer motor 11 is connected to the power wheel 12. When the speed reducer motor 11 receives the control signal from the electronic control speed regulator 7, the power wheel 12 is driven to rotate. At the same time, the upper rollers 13 at the bottom of the frame 1 cooperate with the power wheel 12. The upper rollers 13 are rotatably connected in the frame 1, and are plugged into the optical cable placement groove 2 and distributed on both sides of the bottom of the power wheel 12. They work together to enable the robot to firmly "grab" the cable. When the power wheel 12 rotates, the robot can move stably along the cable under the cooperation of the upper rollers 13. According to different PWM signals, the robot can move forward or backward along the cable at different speeds, realize flexible movement of the robot along the cable, and complete position adjustment on the cable to reach different work points.
[0046] Operation of the throwing device:
[0047] The throwing device 3 is a rudder throwing device. It is connected to the battery 6 through the wireless receiver 8. When the throwing operation is needed, the operator sends a corresponding control signal to the wireless receiver 8 through an external control device on the ground. After receiving the signal, the wireless receiver 8 powers the throwing device 3 and triggers its action, so that the throwing device 3 completes the throwing task according to the instruction and throws the required tools, detection equipment or other auxiliary materials to the specified aerial work position, realizing the support for different work requirements.
[0048] Embodiment 2
[0049] As shown in Figs. 1-2 A lightweight hanging line work robot includes a frame 1, the frame 1 is provided with an optical cable placement groove 2 on the side, the frame 1 is plugged into a rack 5, the plug-in end of the rack 5 is connected to a speed reducer motor 11, the transmission end of the speed reducer motor 11 is connected to a power wheel 12 which is plugged into the optical cable placement groove 2, the bottom of the frame 1 is rotatably connected to an upper roller 13 which is plugged into the optical cable placement groove 2 and corresponds to the power wheel 12, the frame 1 is connected to a throwing device 3, a battery 6, an electronic control speed regulator 7, a wireless receiver 8 and a power switch 10, the throwing end of the throwing device 3 and the pressing end of the power switch 10 both penetrate the frame 1, the electronic control speed regulator 7 and the speed reducer motor 11 are connected to the battery 6 through the power switch 10, the wireless receiver 8 and the speed reducer motor 11 are connected to the electronic control speed regulator 7 respectively, and the throwing device 3 is connected to the battery 6 through the wireless receiver 8.
[0050] The top of the frame 1 is connected to a handle 4.
[0051] The advantages of the above arrangement are:
[0052] Convenient installation and disassembly:
[0053] When installing the lightweight hanging line operation robot, the handle 4 provides a convenient operating position for the operator. Before installing the robot on the high-altitude cable, it needs to be placed in the right position or undergo necessary assembly operations. The handle 4 facilitates the operator to grab and move the robot. For example, when mounting the robot on the high-altitude cable, the robot can be adjusted to the right position by lifting or pushing the handle 4, so that the power wheel 12 and the upper roller 13 are more easily aligned with the cable, facilitating subsequent hanging line operations.
[0054] Similarly, when dismounting the robot from the cable after completing the operation, the operator can remove the robot by holding the handle 4, avoiding direct contact with other parts of the robot, preventing damage to the internal precision components of the robot, and improving the safety and efficiency of the operation.
[0055] Convenient transportation and carrying:
[0056] The presence of the handle 4 makes the robot easy to carry and transport when not in use. When the robot needs to be transferred from the storage location to the operation site, or between different operation sites, the operator can carry the robot by holding the handle 4, just like carrying ordinary tools, avoiding the inconvenience or damage that may be caused by directly holding other parts of the robot.
[0057] For storage and storage, the handle 4 can also be used to hang the robot on a hook or shelf, realizing the effective use of space and facilitating the storage and management of the robot.
[0058] Temporary support and stability function:
[0059] In some cases, when the robot is on the ground or other flat surfaces, the handle 4 can assist in supporting the robot to maintain a stable posture. For example, during the debugging, maintenance or preparation stage of the robot, the robot may need to be temporarily placed on the ground or workbench. The handle 4 can work together with the support foot 14 to prevent the robot from falling or rolling, ensuring the stability of the robot during the preparation process, and avoiding damage or position deviation caused by unstable placement.
[0060] Auxiliary positioning and adjustment function:
[0061] During the hanging line process of the robot, the handle 4 can be used to assist in positioning the robot. When the robot starts hanging line, the operator can adjust the position and angle of the robot by holding the handle 4, so that the robot can be more accurately connected with the cable, ensuring that the power wheel 12 and the upper roller 13 can be smoothly clamped into the cable, achieving better initial hanging line effect, which helps to improve the success rate and stability of the robot hanging on the cable.
[0062] The support feet 14 are respectively connected to the corners of the bottom of the frame 1.
[0063] The advantages of the above arrangement are:
[0064] Support and stability function:
[0065] When the lightweight hanging line operation robot is in a non-working state, such as storage, transportation, assembly, debugging or maintenance on the ground or other flat surfaces, the support feet 14 play a key supporting role. They are respectively located at the corners of the bottom of the frame 1, and can provide stable support for the robot, prevent the robot from tilting or shifting position due to its own gravity or slight external disturbances, and ensure that the overall structure of the robot remains stable. This helps to protect the various components of the robot, prevent damage to internal precision components due to tilting, such as preventing the battery 6, electronic control governor 7, reduction motor 11 and other components from being impacted or squeezed, and prolonging the service life of the robot.
[0066] Protection and isolation function:
[0067] The support feet 14 can separate the main body of the robot from the ground or the placement plane by a certain distance, avoiding direct contact of the bottom of the frame 1 with the ground. This can prevent the bottom components of the robot from being affected by ground moisture, dust, debris or other adverse environmental factors to some extent. For example, it can prevent the battery 6, DC charging interface 9 and other components from being directly exposed to wet ground and causing short circuits or damage, improving the adaptability and reliability of the robot in various environments.
[0068] Auxiliary positioning function:
[0069] When mounting the robot on the high-altitude cable, the support feet 14 can assist the operator in positioning and adjusting. The operator can place the robot near the cable, and through the support of the support feet 14, the robot can be placed in a relatively stable posture, which is convenient for adjusting the position and angle of the robot, ensuring that the power wheels 12 and the upper rollers 13 accurately align and contact the cable, which helps to improve the accuracy and efficiency of the robot hanging line.
[0070] Improve the safety of operation:
[0071] During operation, especially when maintaining or operating the surrounding components of the robot, the support feet 14 can ensure the stability of the robot and reduce the risk of operation. For example, when the operator turns on the power switch 10, connects the charging device to the DC charging interface 9 or inspects the throwing device 3, stable support can avoid the robot from shaking or tilting, providing a safer operating environment for the operator and reducing the possibility of accidents caused by unstable robots.
[0072] The frame 1, handle 4, rack 5 and support feet 14 are 3D printed products.
[0073] The advantages of the above arrangement are:
[0074] Convenience of complex shape manufacturing:
[0075] 3D printing technology allows the manufacture of complex shapes and structures. For the frame 1, handle 4, rack 5 and support foot 14, according to the specific functional requirements and design requirements of the lightweight overhead line operation robot, parts with special shape and internal structure can be manufactured. For example, the frame 1 may need to accommodate multiple components of different shapes and sizes, such as battery 6, electronic control governor 7, reduction motor 11, etc., and needs to consider the cable layout and overall structure layout of the robot. Through 3D printing, complex internal space and external contour can be manufactured to match the above requirements, while traditional manufacturing processes may not be able to achieve such complex designs.
[0076] Lightweight design advantages:
[0077] 3D printing can optimize the structure according to the force situation and functional requirements of the parts, and realize lightweight design under the premise of ensuring strength. For this overhead operation robot, lighter weight is very important because it needs to be suspended on the overhead cable for operation. The lightweight of the frame 1, handle 4, rack 5 and support foot 14 helps to reduce the overall weight of the robot, reduces the load pressure on the cable, makes it easier for the robot to hang on the overhead cable, and has less impact on the cable during operation. At the same time, it is also conducive to improving the running flexibility and efficiency of the robot, and reducing the risk of deformation or damage of the cable due to bearing a larger weight.
[0078] Customization capability:
[0079] These components can be customized according to different operating environments, cable specifications and operating tasks. Different overhead operation scenarios may require different sizes, shapes or functions of the frame, handle, rack and support foot. 3D printing technology can easily adjust according to specific needs without the need to redesign molds or manufacturing tools, allowing for quick customization of components to meet the individual needs of different users. This is of great significance to expand the application range of the robot and improve its adaptability, making it better suited to various complex overhead operation situations.
[0080] Cost efficiency and production efficiency:
[0081] 3D printing has cost advantages in small batch production or prototype development stages. For this lightweight hanging wire operation robot, using 3D printing can avoid the high cost and long cycle of mold opening during the research and development stage or special customization needs, quickly manufacture the required parts, and speed up the product development and iteration process. And according to market feedback and test results, the design of the parts can be quickly modified and optimized and reprinted without the need for large-scale modification or re-manufacturing of molds as in traditional manufacturing, thereby improving production efficiency and product development flexibility.
[0082] Reduce the number of parts and assembly difficulty:
[0083] 3D printing can integrate multiple parts into one or a few integral components. For frame 1, handle 4, rack 5 and support foot 14, some connecting structures or auxiliary support structures can be directly printed on the main components, reducing the number of parts and the complexity and workload of assembly. For example, the support foot 14 and the frame 1 can be printed as a whole, reducing the subsequent assembly process, while also improving the connection strength between components and the stability of the overall structure, avoiding the problem of loose connection or unstable structure caused by too many connecting components.
[0084] The frame 1 is rotatably connected with two groups of upper rollers 13, which are distributed on both sides of the bottom of the power wheel 12.
[0085] The advantages of the above arrangement are:
[0086] Enhance the stability of operation:
[0087] When the robot runs on the high-altitude cable, the two groups of upper rollers 13 work together with the power wheel 12 to clamp or adhere to the cable. The upper rollers 13 are distributed on both sides of the bottom of the power wheel 12, forming a stable support and running system. They contact the cable from different positions, which helps to stabilize the robot on the cable, avoiding the robot from shaking, deviating or derailing during operation, ensuring that the robot can move stably along the cable, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the robot operation. Even in the case of cable bending, vibration or slight external interference, this multi-point contact and support structure can keep the robot balanced and ensure its safe operation on the high-altitude cable.
[0088] Reduce friction and improve operation efficiency:
[0089] The upper rollers 13 and the power wheels 12 work together to reduce the friction between the robot and the cable during movement. The upper rollers 13 share part of the pressure and convert the relatively large sliding friction into rolling friction during rolling, which is relatively small, allowing the robot to slide or roll more smoothly along the cable, reducing power consumption. This helps improve the efficiency of the robot, allowing it to move at high speed with lower power consumption, while also reducing wear and tear on the cable, extending its service life. This advantage is particularly evident for long-term and long-distance aerial cable work tasks.
[0090] Adapt to different cable specifications:
[0091] This structure of two groups of upper rollers 13 distributed on both sides of the bottom of the power wheel 12 can better adapt to different diameters of cables. Since different aerial cables such as power lines and optical cables may have different diameters, when the robot is applied to different work scenarios, this structure can better fit the cable by adjusting the relative positions of the upper rollers 13 and the power wheels 12, ensuring that the robot can operate stably on cables of different specifications. Whether it is a thinner cable or a thicker cable, through the cooperation of the upper rollers 13 and the power wheels 12, the robot can closely fit the cable surface, achieving stable contact and movement, and expanding the application range of the robot.
[0092] Improve load capacity and carrying performance:
[0093] The two groups of upper rollers 13 share part of the weight of the robot and work together with the power wheels 12 to bear the weight of the robot and the load carried, thereby improving the overall load capacity of the robot. When the robot needs to carry tools, detection equipment or other materials, this structure can better distribute the weight, avoid the robot from sliding off the cable or affecting its performance due to excessive load, and ensure that the robot can still work normally under certain load conditions, providing more reliable support for the multifunctional work of the robot.
[0094] Example 3
[0095] As Figs. 1-2As shown, a lightweight hanging line operation robot includes a frame 1, a side of the frame 1 is provided with an optical cable placing groove 2, the frame 1 is inserted with a rack 5, the insertion end of the rack 5 is connected with a speed reducer motor 11, the transmission end of the speed reducer motor 11 is connected with a power wheel 12 inserted with the optical cable placing groove 2, the bottom of the frame 1 is rotatably connected with an upper roller 13 inserted with the optical cable placing groove 2 and corresponding to the power wheel 12, the frame 1 is connected with a throwing device 3, a battery 6, an electronic control speed regulator 7, a wireless receiver 8 and a power switch 10, the throwing end of the throwing device 3 and the pressing end of the power switch 10 all penetrate the frame 1, the electronic control speed regulator 7 and the speed reducer motor 11 are connected with the battery 6 through the power switch 10, the wireless receiver 8 and the speed reducer motor 11 are connected with the electronic control speed regulator 7 respectively, and the throwing device 3 is connected with the battery 6 through the wireless receiver 8.
[0096] The throwing device 3 is a rudder throwing device.
[0097] The advantages of the above arrangement are:
[0098] Precise control of throwing action:
[0099] The rudder is a device that can accurately control the angle, and the throwing device 3 is designed as a rudder throwing device, which can realize accurate control of the throwing angle. In high-altitude operation, this means that when tools, detection equipment or other auxiliary materials need to be thrown, the operator can accurately throw the items to the target location by controlling the rotation angle of the rudder. For example, when repairing high-altitude cables, according to different repair locations, the repair tools can be accurately thrown to the required repair point, improving the accuracy of throwing and avoiding the risk of multiple operations or dropping of items due to inaccurate throwing.
[0100] Stable and reliable throwing performance:
[0101] The rudder has good stability and reliability, and its internal control circuit and mechanical structure can ensure the consistency and stability of each throwing action. This enables the throwing device 3 to throw with stable force and angle during multiple uses, ensuring the predictability of the flight trajectory and landing point of the thrown items, reducing the risk of item loss or damage due to unstable throwing. Moreover, the rudder can withstand certain loads, and for different weights and sizes of thrown items, the parameters of the rudder can be adjusted according to their characteristics to ensure the smooth performance of the throwing action, improving the success rate of the throwing operation.
[0102] Good integration with the robot system:
[0103] Since the lightweight hanging line operation robot adopts electronic control speed regulator 7 and wireless receiver 8 and other electronic control systems, the rudder thrower can be well integrated with these existing systems. By receiving the control signal through the wireless receiver 8, the operation of the thrower 3 can be remotely controlled, and the operator can control the thrower 3 on the ground or in a safe place, avoiding the danger of manual operation of the thrower, and also facilitating the operation and coordination of the entire robot system. Moreover, the rudder can be conveniently connected with the power supply system of the robot, such as the battery 6, and use the power of the battery 6, without the need for additional complex power supply system, making the overall structure of the robot more compact and the system integration higher.
[0104] Flexibility and versatility:
[0105] The adjustability of the rudder makes the thrower 3 have high flexibility, not only can adjust the angle of throwing, but also can adjust the force and speed of throwing according to different operation tasks. For different high-altitude operation tasks, such as throwing light detection instruments or heavy maintenance equipment, different throwing modes can be realized by adjusting the parameters of the rudder, increasing the operation function range of the robot, meeting the needs of various high-altitude operation tasks such as detection, maintenance, installation, etc. Material throwing requirements, provide the robot with more functions, improve the operation adaptability and practicality of the robot.
[0106] The battery 6 is a rechargeable lithium battery.
[0107] The advantages of the above arrangement are:
[0108] Reusable:
[0109] As a rechargeable lithium battery, the battery 6 can be charged and discharged multiple times, greatly improving the economic efficiency and convenience of the robot. Compared with disposable batteries, the reusable feature of lithium batteries reduces the trouble and cost of frequent battery replacement. In multiple high-altitude operation tasks, only the battery 6 of the robot needs to be charged through the DC charging interface 9, and it can continue to be used without frequent replacement like disposable batteries, reducing the use cost, and also reducing the downtime caused by battery replacement, improving the work efficiency of the robot.
[0110] High energy density:
[0111] Lithium batteries have a high energy density, which means that they can store more electrical energy in the same volume and weight. This is an important advantage for a lightweight aerial cable operating robot, as it can provide enough energy for the robot to operate on high-altitude cables for a long time. For example, when performing long-distance cable inspection or maintenance tasks, the robot needs enough energy to drive the reduction motor 11 to move the robot along the cable, as well as to provide power for components such as the throwing device 3, wireless receiver 8, and electronic control governor 7. The high energy density of lithium batteries can ensure that the robot has enough endurance, reducing the number of charges, extending the single working time of the robot, and improving the efficiency of the operation.
[0112] Low self-discharge rate:
[0113] The self-discharge rate of lithium batteries is relatively low, that is, even if the robot is not used for a period of time, the battery 6 can still save a good amount of electricity. This is very advantageous for discontinuous operation, reducing the loss of electricity due to battery self-discharge, so that the robot can be started at any time when needed, avoiding delays in operation due to battery power depletion. For example, when the operation plan is delayed due to weather or other reasons, the low self-discharge characteristic of lithium batteries can ensure that the robot still has enough power for the next use, reducing the maintenance workload and the management cost of the battery.
[0114] Environmental friendliness:
[0115] Compared with some traditional batteries, such as lead-acid batteries, lithium batteries are relatively more environmentally friendly. Lithium batteries do not contain toxic heavy metals and have less environmental pollution during use, meeting modern environmental protection requirements. Especially for aerial cable operating robots that may operate in different environments, using lithium batteries can reduce the potential pollution risk to the environment, which is conducive to sustainable development and environmental protection.
[0116] Lightweight:
[0117] Lithium batteries generally have a lighter weight, which helps to maintain the lightweight design of the entire robot. Since the robot needs to be suspended on a high-altitude cable for operation, the overall weight control is very important. A lighter battery helps to reduce the total weight of the robot, reduces the pressure on the cable, reduces the operating burden of the robot, improves its flexibility and safety in operation, and also helps with the installation, transportation, and operation of the robot.
[0118] The battery 6 is connected with a DC charging interface 9 that is plugged into the frame 1.
[0119] The advantages of the above arrangement are:
[0120] Convenient charging operation:
[0121] The DC charging interface 9 provides a simple and convenient charging method for the battery 6. The operator can use a standard DC power adapter or charging device to easily charge the battery 6 by connecting it to the DC charging interface 9. This plug-in interface design is convenient for operation, without complex charging connection steps, so that the robot can quickly supplement energy when it is not working, and be ready for the next task at any time. For example, after completing a high-altitude operation, the robot is removed, and the appropriate charger is plugged into the DC charging interface 9 to start charging. The operation is simple, even non-professionals can easily complete it, improving the convenience of using the robot.
[0122] Good compatibility and versatility:
[0123] Since the DC charging interface 9 is a common interface type, it has good compatibility. It can match the common DC power adapter or charging device on the market, without the need to specially customize special charging equipment, reducing the cost and procurement difficulty of charging equipment. Different users can charge the robot's battery according to their existing charging equipment, as long as its output voltage and current meet the charging requirements of the battery 6, improving the versatility of the robot and the flexibility of the user, and also facilitating the user to select the appropriate charging equipment according to the actual situation, adapting to different use environments and charging needs.
[0124] Integration and safety:
[0125] The DC charging interface 9 is plugged into the frame 1, and this integrated design makes the charging interface position fixed and easy to maintain. It integrates the charging function into the robot's frame structure, making the overall structure of the robot more compact, avoiding external messy wire connections, and reducing potential safety hazards caused by exposed charging lines, such as line entanglement, electrical leakage, etc. Moreover, through integration with the frame 1, it also facilitates the protection of the charging interface, preventing the interface from being damaged during robot operation or transportation, improving the overall safety and reliability of the robot.
[0126] Easy monitoring and management:
[0127] When charging using the DC charging interface 9, the charging status can be easily monitored and managed. The charging device or the robot's control system can be set with corresponding charging indicators or monitoring functions, such as through the indicator light of the power switch 10 or other display devices, to allow users to intuitively understand the charging status of the battery 6, facilitating users to reasonably arrange charging time and use time, avoiding overcharging or using before charging, which is beneficial to prolong the service life of the battery 6 and protect the performance of the robot.
[0128] The power switch 10 is a switch with a power indicator light.
[0129] The advantages of the above arrangement are:
[0130] Power status visualization:
[0131] The power indicator light can intuitively display the power status of the robot. When the power switch 10 is turned on, the indicator light turns on, and the operator can immediately know that the robot has been powered on and is in working condition. When the indicator light is off, it indicates that the robot power is off. This provides a simple and intuitive way for the operator to judge the power status of the robot, without the need for additional detection equipment or complex operations to quickly confirm whether the robot is powered on, making it convenient for operators and maintenance personnel to monitor the status of the robot, and avoiding operation errors or safety problems caused by misjudgment of the power status.
[0132] Improved operation convenience and safety:
[0133] During operation, especially when starting and shutting down the robot, the power indicator light can allow the operator to clearly see the operation result. For example, after turning on the power switch 10, by observing whether the indicator light is on, it can be confirmed whether the robot is started normally, so that problems such as insufficient battery 6 power, poor circuit connection, etc. can be found in time, avoiding subsequent operations due to not starting normally, preventing damage to robot parts or causing other safety hazards. When turning off the power, it can also be confirmed whether the power is indeed turned off, avoiding battery leakage or other potential risks caused by incomplete power cut-off, and ensuring that the robot is in a safe state when not in use.
[0134] Fault diagnosis assistance:
[0135] The status of the indicator light can also provide some auxiliary information for fault diagnosis. If the indicator light does not light up or flickers abnormally, it may indicate that there is a problem with the power supply system or related circuits, and the operator can preliminarily judge the fault range according to the indicator light, such as possible power switch 10 failure, battery 6 connection problem or electronic control governor 7 power supply problem, etc., which helps to quickly locate and solve the problem, reduces the time for maintenance and troubleshooting, and improves the maintenance efficiency of the robot.
[0136] Operation process specification and standardization:
[0137] The power switch 10 with the power indicator light helps to standardize the operation process. The operator can operate the robot according to the correct steps according to the indication of the indicator light, such as first observing the indicator light to confirm that the robot is in the off state, then turning on the power switch 10, and observing the indicator light to turn on before performing subsequent operations, avoiding blind operation. This is of great significance to ensure the normal use of the robot, prolong its service life and ensure safe operation, especially for new users who are not familiar with the robot, which can better guide them to perform correct operations.
