[0002] With the rapid development of technology, quadruped robot dogs, as a new type of intelligent robot, have shown great application potential in fields such as logistics and distribution, disaster relief, agricultural applications, and security monitoring. These robot dogs usually have excellent stability and load-bearing capacity, and can cope with complex terrain and environment. However, like all electric devices, the battery life of quadruped robot dogs is one of the key factors in their performance. In order to ensure that quadruped robot dogs can continuously perform tasks, efficient charging solutions have become particularly important.
[0003] Currently, quadruped robot dogs on the market typically use batteries as their power source. These batteries need to be charged at certain intervals. Traditional charging methods often require manual connection of the robot dog to the charger, which is not only time-consuming and laborious, but may also delay task execution in some emergency situations. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of this, the present invention proposes a charging station device for a quadruped robot dog, which can solve the defects of the prior art that require manual connection of the robot dog to the charger, resulting in time-consuming and laborious work.
[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:
[0006] A charging station device for a quadruped robot dog, comprising:
[0007] The charging station itself is used to provide charging voltage for the four robot dogs;
[0008] The charging station's positive and negative probes are used to contact the charging contacts on the quadruped robot dog's abdomen when the robot dog is lying down to charge.
[0009] The positioning component is used to provide positioning information for the quadruped robot dog, so that the top of the charging pile body is directly facing the abdomen of the quadruped robot dog.

[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0022] refer to Figures 1 to 2 A charging station device for a quadruped robot dog, comprising:
[0023] The charging station body 1 is used to provide charging voltage for four sets of robot dogs;
[0024] The charging station's positive and negative probes 2 are used to contact the charging contacts on the abdomen of the quadruped robot dog when it is lying down to charge.
[0025] The positioning component is used to provide positioning information for the quadruped robot dog, so that the top of the charging pile body 1 is directly facing the abdomen of the quadruped robot dog.
[0026] In this embodiment, the charging pile body 1 is capable of providing charging voltage to four groups of robot dogs simultaneously. This allows multiple robot dogs to be charged at the same time within one charging cycle, thereby greatly improving charging efficiency. The positive and negative probes 2 of the charging pile are in direct contact with the charging contacts on the abdomen of the four-legged robot dog, reducing energy loss during the charging process and further improving charging efficiency. The introduction of the positioning component allows the charging pile body to be accurately positioned on the abdomen of the four-legged robot dog, simplifying the charging alignment process. Users do not need to manually adjust the position of the robot dog or the charging pile, improving the convenience of operation. The accuracy of the positioning component also helps to prevent charging failures or robot dog damage caused by misalignment. This charging pile device is suitable for various models and specifications of four-legged robot dogs, as long as the position and specifications of their abdominal charging contacts meet the design requirements of the charging pile.
[0027] Preferably, the charging pile device further includes a probe fixing block 3, which is used to fix the positive and negative pole probes 2 of the charging pile on the charging pile body 1.
[0028] In this embodiment, the design of the probe fixing block 3 ensures the stability of the positive and negative probes 2 of the charging pile during the charging process. This helps prevent the probes from shaking or shifting during the charging of the robot dog, thereby ensuring stable contact between the probes and the charging contacts on the robot dog's abdomen. Since the probe fixing block 3 can maintain the stable position of the probes, it helps ensure sufficient contact between the probes and the charging contacts. This stable contact can reduce energy loss during the charging process and improve charging efficiency, allowing the robot dog to be fully charged faster. The probe fixing block 3 also helps extend the service life of the probes by reducing the shaking and friction of the probes during the charging process. Frequent shaking and friction may cause wear or damage to the probes, while the probe fixing block 3 can effectively reduce this wear, thereby extending the replacement cycle of the probes. The design of the probe fixing block 3 also takes into account the safety of the charging pile device. By ensuring the stable position of the probes, the risk of charging failure or short circuit caused by probe shaking or shifting can be reduced, which helps protect the robot dog and the charging pile device from potential electrical damage or injury.
[0029] Preferably, the heads of the positive and negative probes 2 of the charging pile are serrated.
[0030] In this embodiment, the serrated design allows the probe tip to more effectively penetrate any dirt, oxides, or other impurities when contacting the charging contacts on the belly of the quadruped robot dog, ensuring good electrical contact. Simultaneously, the serrated edges increase the actual contact area between the probe and the charging contacts, which helps reduce contact resistance and improve charging efficiency. Because the serrated probe tip can better adapt to the slight unevenness of the charging contacts, it provides a more stable charging connection. This design also helps reduce charging interruptions or decreased charging efficiency due to poor contact, thereby improving charging accuracy. The serrated structure also allows the probe tip to more effectively resist wear during long-term use. Compared to traditional smooth probes, the serrated probe experiences less wear when subjected to friction or pressure, thus maintaining its shape and function for a longer period.
[0031] Preferably, the positive and negative probes 2 of the charging pile have built-in springs 4 that can extend and retract vertically.
[0032] In this embodiment, the built-in spring 4 allows the probe to extend and retract vertically according to the thickness and position of the charging contacts on the abdomen of the quadruped robot dog. This adaptability ensures that the probe can establish a stable electrical contact with the charging contacts, regardless of the specific position or thickness of the contacts. The extension and retraction function of the spring 4 helps maintain a tight contact between the probe and the charging contacts during charging. Even if the robot dog experiences minor movement or vibration during charging, the spring 4 can absorb these movements, preventing the connection between the probe and the contacts from breaking. The buffering effect of the spring 4 reduces the impact force when the probe contacts the charging contacts, thereby reducing wear caused by direct collision between the probe and the contacts. This helps extend the service life of the probe and the charging contacts and reduce maintenance costs. The probe design with the built-in spring 4 makes the installation and alignment process more flexible and convenient. Users do not need to precisely adjust the position or height of the probe, as the spring 4 will automatically adjust according to the actual situation of the charging contacts. The extension and retraction function of the spring 4 also enhances the safety of the charging pile device. During the charging process, if the probe encounters excessive pressure or resistance, the spring 4 can act as a buffer mechanism to prevent probe damage or short circuits and other safety hazards.
[0033] Preferably, the charging pile device further includes a fixed base plate 5, which is used to fix the charging pile body 1 and prevent the charging pile body 1 from shifting.
[0034] In this embodiment, the design of the fixed base plate 5 ensures the stability of the charging pile body 1 during installation and use. By firmly fixing the charging pile body 1 to the fixed base plate 5, it can prevent displacement or tilting when subjected to external forces, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the entire charging pile device. During the charging process, the charging pile body 1 may be subjected to impacts or vibrations from the robot or other external factors. The fixed base plate 5 can effectively absorb these impacts and vibrations, reducing their impact on the charging pile body 1, thereby protecting the charging pile body 1 from damage or wear. The fixed base plate 5 is designed with standardized installation interfaces and fixing holes, which makes the installation process of the charging pile body 1 simpler and faster. At the same time, the fixed base plate 5 also facilitates subsequent maintenance and repair work, because users can easily access the internal components of the charging pile body 1 by disassembling the base plate. The design of the fixed base plate 5 takes into account the compatibility of different models and specifications of charging pile bodies. By adjusting the size, shape, or fixing method of the base plate, it can adapt to different models of charging pile bodies 1, thereby improving the versatility and flexibility of the entire charging pile device. It should be noted that the fixed base plate 5 has an anti-slip design to prevent the quadruped robot dog from slipping or falling during charging.
[0035] Preferably, the charging pile device further includes a rubber buffer pad 6, which is disposed on the top of the charging pile body 1 and is used to buffer the impact force that may be generated when the four-legged robot dog lies down to charge.
[0036] In this embodiment, the rubber buffer pad 6 effectively reduces the direct impact between the quadruped robot dog and the charging pile body 1 when it lies down to charge. This buffering effect protects the robot dog's abdomen and charging contacts from potential damage, ensuring its safety and integrity during the charging process. By absorbing impact force, the rubber buffer pad 6 also reduces wear and deformation of the charging pile body 1 caused by the long-term influence of the robot dog's weight and movements, which helps extend the overall service life of the charging pile device and reduce maintenance costs. The elastic properties of the rubber buffer pad 6 help maintain stable contact between the charging pile body 1 and the quadruped robot dog during charging. Even if the robot dog experiences minor movement or vibration during charging, the buffer pad provides additional support and stability, ensuring the reliability of the charging connection. During charging, if the quadruped robot dog collides with the charging pile due to improper operation or accidental circumstances, the rubber buffer pad 6 can effectively absorb the collision energy, reducing potential damage to the robot dog and the charging pile itself, which enhances the safety of the entire charging process. It should be noted that the rubber buffer pad 6 is made of a highly elastic material to provide better cushioning effect.
[0037] Preferably, the positioning component includes a QR code fixing frame 7 and a positioning QR code 8. The QR code fixing frame 7 is installed on the front of the charging pile body 1 and is used to fix the positioning QR code 8. The quadruped robot dog obtains positioning information based on the positioning QR code 8.
[0038] In this embodiment, by installing a QR code mounting bracket 7 and a positioning QR code 8 on the front of the charging pile body 1, the quadruped robot dog can easily obtain the exact information of the charging location by scanning the positioning QR code 8. This simplifies the positioning process and reduces the confusion or delay that the robot dog may experience when searching for the charging pile. The positioning QR code 8 contains the specific location information of the charging pile, which the quadruped robot dog can accurately interpret to quickly and precisely locate the charging pile. This helps to improve the efficiency and accuracy of the charging process and avoids charging failure or delay due to positioning errors. The installation and maintenance of the QR code mounting bracket 7 and the positioning QR code 8 are relatively simple. Once installed, they can operate stably for a long time without frequent maintenance or replacement. This reduces the overall maintenance cost of the charging pile device and improves its economy and practicality.
[0039] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
