[0032] ​The radar decoration cover 1 of the utility model, through setting connecting assembly 12 between radar 2 and decoration cover body 11, with decoration cover body 11 is fixed in radar 2, need not connect decoration cover body 11 with the shell of robot, can avoid the connecting structure between both to shield the transmitting end or receiving end of radar 2.The height of the cover of decoration cover body 11 is higher than the height of the transmitting end and receiving end of radar 2, so as to play the role of protection and decoration to radar 2 while not shielding the transmitting end or receiving end of radar 2.As can be known from the above, the connecting assembly 12 and decoration cover body 11 of the radar decoration cover 1 of the utility model will not cause shielding to the scanning light path of radar 2, will not affect the scanning detection function of radar 2, and effectively solve the defects that the decoration cover of radar easily shields the light path of laser radar and affects the navigation and path finding of robot in the prior art.

[0033] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The connecting assembly 12 includes a first connecting piece 121 and a second connecting piece 122. The first connecting piece 121 is arranged at the bottom of the decoration cover body 11, and the second connecting piece 122 is configured to be arranged at the top of the radar 2. The first connecting piece 121 and the second connecting piece 122 are detachably connected.

[0034] In the embodiment, by arranging the first connecting piece 121 at the bottom of the decoration cover body 11 and the second connecting piece 122 that is adapted to the first connecting piece 121 at the top of the radar 2, the user can arbitrarily disassemble and assemble the first connecting piece 121 and the second connecting piece 122 to replace the decoration cover body 11 according to needs. For example, the user can replace the decoration cover body 11 when the decoration cover body 11 is damaged. For another example, the decoration cover body 11 can have various styles and shapes, and the user can replace the decoration cover body 11 at any time by disassembling and assembling the first connecting piece 121 and the second connecting piece 122 according to personal preferences.

[0035] Optionally, the first connecting piece 121 and the second connecting piece 122 can be fixed to each other by bolt connection; or the first connecting piece 121 and the second connecting piece 122 can be two adapted clamping pieces, and the decoration cover body 11 is fixed to the top of the radar 2 by clamping; or the first connecting piece 121 and the second connecting piece 122 can be two adhesive pieces, and the decoration cover body 11 is fixed to the top of the radar 2 by adhesion.

[0036] Specifically, in some embodiments, the second connecting piece 122 is adhered to the top of the radar 2.

[0037] In the embodiment, the second connecting piece 122 can be adhered to the top surface of the radar 2 by an adhesive that is adapted to the second connecting piece 122, without the need to arrange additional connecting structures on the second connecting piece 122 and the radar 2, so that the structure is compact and the operation is convenient.

[0038] In some embodiments, the bottom of the decorative cover body 11 is provided with a mounting groove, and the first connecting member 121 is arranged in the mounting groove so that the surface of the first connecting member 121 is flush with the bottom surface of the decorative cover body 11.

[0039] In the present embodiment, the bottom of the decorative cover body 11 is provided with a mounting groove, and the first connecting member 121 is embedded in the mounting groove so that the surface of the first connecting member 121 is flush with the bottom surface of the decorative cover body 11, thereby avoiding the first connecting member 121 protruding from the bottom of the decorative cover body 11, and further making the combination of the decorative cover body 11, the connecting assembly 12 and the radar 2 more compact, and also being conducive to reducing the overall thickness of the radar decorative cover 1 and improving the aesthetic appearance.

[0040] Optionally, in some embodiments, the second connecting member 122 and the first connecting member 121 are connected by adhesion or adsorption, and the contact surface of the second connecting member 122 and the first connecting member 121 is planar. Since the surface of the first connecting member 121 is flush with the bottom surface of the decorative cover body 11, the bottom surface of the decorative cover body 11 also fits the top surface of the second connecting member 122.

[0041] Optionally, the second connecting member 122 and the first connecting member 121 can be mutually clamped. When the second connecting member 122 and the first connecting member 121 are clamped, part of the structure of the second connecting member 122 extends into the mounting groove and clamps with the first connecting member 121, so that the bottom surface of the decorative cover body 11 can fit the top of the radar 2.

[0042] Specifically, in some embodiments, the first connecting member 121 is a magnet, and the second connecting member 122 is a magnetic member. The magnet and the magnetic member are attracted to each other. In the present embodiment, by arranging the first connecting member 121 and the second connecting member 122 as a magnet and a magnetic member respectively, the magnet and the magnetic member can be attracted to each other to fix the decorative cover body 11 on the top of the radar 2. The user can overcome the magnetic force between the magnet and the magnetic member to remove the decorative cover body 11 from the radar 2. The structure is simple, easy to disassemble and reassemble, and can be repeatedly disassembled and reassembled.

[0043] Further, in some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 the magnetic member is a magnetic sheet configured to cover the top of the radar 2. In the present embodiment, by arranging the magnetic member as a magnetic sheet, the magnetic sheet is relatively thin and does not have a great impact on the overall thickness of the radar decorative cover 1, which is conducive to making the radar decorative cover 1 thinner and more beautiful. At the same time, the magnetic sheet can cover the top of the radar 2 to form a larger magnetic surface, which is easier to align when the magnet and the magnetic sheet are attracted to each other, and the operation is more convenient.

[0044] Optionally, in some embodiments, the magnetic member is a permanent magnet or a ferromagnetic member. It can be understood that the magnetic member can be a permanent magnet, and the magnetic member has a polarity opposite to that of the pole of the magnet opposite to the magnet, so as to be attracted to each other; or the magnetic member can also be a ferromagnetic member, such as an iron member, a steel member, etc., which can be attracted by the magnet.

[0045] In one specific embodiment, the second connecting member 122 is a steel sheet, and the first connecting member 121 is a magnet. The steel sheet is adhered to the top of the radar 2 by an adhesive such as double-sided tape, and can be attracted to the magnet, so as to fix the decorative cover body 11 to the top of the radar 2.

[0046] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 , the magnet has a plurality of magnets, and the plurality of magnets are arranged at intervals around the central axis of the decorative cover body 11.

[0047] It can be understood that the decorative cover body 11 is generally a rotary body (for example, a disc-shaped structure). In this embodiment, by arranging the plurality of magnets at intervals around the central axis of the decorative cover body 11, the plurality of magnets can be attracted to the magnetic member, so that the bottom of the decorative cover body 11 has a plurality of attraction force points, thereby making the connection between the decorative cover body 11 and the radar 2 more firm and reliable.
