The main control module 10 is detachably disposed on the first mounting position; the power module 7 is detachably disposed on the second mounting position; at least one camera module is replaceable and detachably disposed on the third mounting position.
[0056] Specifically, the vehicle body is movable and equipped with tires. The upper plate 4, the base plate 6, and the mounting bracket 11 provide mounting positions for the main control module 10, the power module 7, and the camera module, respectively.

This detachable connection facilitates the installation and removal of each component.
[0057] This utility model discloses a mobile platform primarily designed for medical applications. It is equipped with multiple camera modules of various specifications to meet the needs of medical use. Existing mobile platforms integrate all camera modules, resulting in an excessively large overall size. In this application, because the camera modules are detachably connected, only one or two modules need to be installed for specific applications, effectively reducing the size of the mobile platform.
[0058] In such Figures 1 to 3 In the structure shown, only one camera module is installed when using it on a mobile platform. The appropriate camera module is selected for installation based on the specific usage scenario.
[0059] This utility model provides a mobile platform comprising: a vehicle body, a main control module 10, a power supply module 7, and multiple camera modules. The vehicle body includes: an upper plate 4, a lower plate 6, and a mounting bracket 11. The upper plate 4 has a first mounting position; the lower plate 6 has a second mounting position; the mounting bracket 11 is disposed on the upper plate 4 and has a third mounting position. The main control module 10 is detachably mounted on the first mounting position; the power supply module 7 is detachably mounted on the second mounting position; at least one camera module is replaceable and detachably mounted on the third mounting position. In this mobile platform, the main control module 10, power supply module 7, and camera modules all employ detachable connection methods, facilitating the installation, removal, and replacement of each component. Depending on usage requirements, at least one camera module is provided and can be replaced. Compared to the prior art method of installing all camera modules on the mobile platform, this utility model allows for the installation of only one or two camera modules, effectively reducing the size of the mobile platform.
[0060] In one embodiment of this utility model, the first mounting position has multiple first mounting holes. The mobile platform further includes multiple first magnetic units 81 and multiple second magnetic units 82. The multiple first magnetic units 81 are correspondingly disposed in the first mounting holes; the multiple second magnetic units 82 are all disposed on the main control module 10, and the second magnetic units 82 and the first magnetic units 81 can be magnetically attracted to each other. Preferably, four first mounting holes, four first magnetic units 81, and four second magnetic units 82 are provided, arranged in a rectangular or square pattern. The main control module 10 is installed using a magnetic attraction method. When the main control module 10 is placed in the designated position, the second magnetic units 82 and the first magnetic units 81 attract each other, ensuring that the main control module 10 is installed in place; when it is necessary to remove the main control module 10, an external force is applied to overcome the magnetic attraction force to remove it.
[0061] In one embodiment of this utility model, the mobile platform further includes a first fastener and a second fastener. The first magnetic unit 81 is fixed to the first mounting hole by the first fastener; the second magnetic unit 82 is fixed to the main control module 10 by the second fastener. Preferably, both the first and second fasteners are bolts, with the first magnetic unit 81 fixed to the upper surface of the upper plate 4 and the second magnetic unit 82 fixed to the lower surface of the main control module 10 by bolts.
[0062] In one embodiment of this utility model, both the first magnetic attraction unit 81 and the second magnetic attraction unit 82 are annular structures. The diameter of the through hole at one end of the first magnetic attraction unit 81 is larger than the diameter of the through hole at the other end, and the diameter of the through hole at one end of the second magnetic attraction unit 82 is larger than the diameter of the through hole at the other end. The head of the first fastener is accommodated in the through hole at one end of the first magnetic attraction unit 81, and the head of the second fastener is accommodated in the through hole at one end of the second magnetic attraction unit 82. Specifically, both the first magnetic attraction unit 81 and the second magnetic attraction unit 82 use annular magnets 16, and the diameter of the through hole at one end is larger than that at the other end. The end with the larger through hole diameter is used to accommodate the head of the bolt. The shank of the bolt passes through the through hole of the annular magnet 16 and the mounting hole of the corresponding mounting position, fixing the annular magnet 16 to the designated mounting surface, thereby achieving the fixation of the annular magnet 16.
[0063] In one embodiment of this utility model, the above-mentioned annular magnet 16 has a single-sided concave structure and adopts a rounded transition shape to connect the large end (the end with a larger diameter of the through hole) of the through hole to the small end (the end with a smaller diameter of the through hole).
[0064] In one embodiment of this utility model, the second mounting position has multiple second mounting holes. The mobile platform further includes multiple third magnetic units 83 and multiple fourth magnetic units 84. The multiple third magnetic units 83 are correspondingly disposed in the second mounting holes; the multiple fourth magnetic units 84 are all disposed on the power module 7, and the fourth magnetic units 84 and the third magnetic units 83 can be magnetically attracted to each other. Similarly, the structure of the third magnetic units 83 and the fourth magnetic units 84 is the same as that of the first magnetic unit 81 and the second magnetic unit 82, and they are also installed and fixed with bolts, which will not be described again here.
[0065] In one embodiment of this utility model, the third mounting position has multiple third mounting holes. The mobile platform further includes multiple fifth magnetic units 85 and multiple sixth magnetic units 86. The multiple fifth magnetic units 85 are correspondingly disposed in the third mounting holes; the multiple sixth magnetic units 86 are disposed on each camera module, and the sixth magnetic units 86 and the fifth magnetic units 85 can be magnetically attracted to each other. Similarly, the structure of the fifth magnetic units 85 and the sixth magnetic units 86 is the same as that of the first magnetic unit 81 and the second magnetic unit 82, and they are also installed and fixed with bolts, which will not be described again here. Preferably, three third mounting holes and three fifth magnetic units 85 are provided, and each camera module is provided with three sixth magnetic units 86, in a linear distribution.
[0066] As can be seen from the above embodiments, the main control module 10, power module 7, and camera module are all installed using magnetic attraction, requiring no other fasteners. The components are simply placed into their corresponding mounting positions for quick installation via magnetic attraction. Similarly, during removal, external force is applied to overcome the magnetic attraction, allowing for easy disassembly. Magnetic installation enables rapid assembly, disassembly, and replacement.
[0067] In one embodiment of this utility model, the vehicle body further includes: support columns 9, with the upper plate 4 and the bottom plate 6 connected by the support columns 9. Specifically, the upper plate 4 is supported and moved by tires, and the bottom plate 6 is located below the upper plate 4 and is fixedly connected to the upper plate 4 by four support columns 9.
[0068] In one embodiment of this utility model, the vehicle body further includes a drive unit 1 and a walking unit 3. The drive unit 1 is disposed at the bottom of the upper plate 4; the walking unit 3 is rotatably disposed at the bottom of the upper plate 4, and the drive unit 1 and the walking unit 3 are drivenly connected. Specifically, the drive unit 1 is a motor, which is mounted on the bottom of the upper plate 4 through a motor bracket 2; the walking unit 3 is a tire, preferably a Mecanum wheel, which enables the vehicle to move in all directions and is very suitable for use in situations requiring high mobility, such as operation in narrow spaces and rapid changes of direction, meeting the needs of medical scenarios.
[0069] In one embodiment of this utility model, the mobile platform further includes a handle 5 and a lidar 13. The handle 5 is located at the end of the upper plate 4 away from the mounting bracket 11; the lidar 13 is detachably mounted on the handle 5. The lidar 13 can be removed according to usage requirements, and the handle 5 provides a grip for the user. Therefore, the handle 5 has a gripping function when the lidar 13 is removed; and provides a mounting position for the lidar 13 when it is installed.
[0070] In one embodiment of this utility model, the camera module includes at least two of the following: a single-camera module 14, a dual-camera module 12, and a depth-of-field module 15. Other camera modules can also be used as needed. In a preferred embodiment, only one camera module is installed on a mobile platform. Depending on usage, the corresponding camera module can be quickly removed and replaced using a magnetic attachment.
[0071] The device embodiments described above are merely illustrative. The units described as separate components may or may not be physically separate. The components shown as units may or may not be physical units; that is, they may be located in one place or distributed across multiple network units. Some or all of the modules can be selected to achieve the purpose of this embodiment according to actual needs. Those skilled in the art can understand and implement this without any creative effort.
[0072] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it.
