[0002] In modern logistics and industrial automated production, mobile robots are key equipment for achieving efficient material handling and precise delivery, and their operational stability and accuracy are paramount. Mobile robots must strictly adhere to preset paths, especially ensuring the precision of their straight-line movement, which directly affects the smoothness of the production process and the overall efficiency of the automated system. Currently, with the increasing demands for automation across industries, the application scenarios for mobile robots are becoming increasingly complex and diverse, ranging from narrow warehouse aisles to large production workshops, from conventional flat transport to working environments with slopes or special ground materials, placing increasingly stringent demands on the straight-line movement performance of mobile robots.

[0003] Traditional detection methods often rely on complex sensor systems and software algorithms, which are not only costly but also difficult to debug and maintain. In practical applications, sensors are susceptible to interference from environmental factors such as dust and electromagnetic signals, leading to inaccurate detection data and failing to reflect the true walking status of the mobile robot in a timely and intuitive manner. Furthermore, some detection devices have fixed structures, making them difficult to adapt to different specifications and models of mobile robots, resulting in extremely poor versatility. Some detection devices focus on detecting the robot's operational results, neglecting real-time monitoring and adjustment during operation. By the time a deviation in the robot's straight-line movement is detected, production has often already been affected, making immediate intervention and correction difficult and hindering the continuity and stability of production.

[0025] Example

[0026] Reference Figure 1-4 This embodiment of the present invention provides an automated testing device for detecting the straight-line movement of a forklift mobile robot, comprising:

[0027] The support assembly 100 includes a base 101, a crossbeam 102 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the base 101, a slider 103 slidably connected to the middle of the crossbeam 102, and a track support block 104 fixedly connected to the upper end of the slider 103.

[0028] The auxiliary component 200 includes an adjusting block 201 slidably mounted on the inner side wall of the base 101, a baffle 202 fixedly connected to the upper end of the adjusting block 201, a conveyor belt 203 adapted to be mounted on the side wall of the baffle 202, and an auxiliary motor 204 fixedly connected to the upper side wall of the adjusting block 201. The output end of the auxiliary motor 204 is connected to the main shaft of the conveyor belt 203 for transmission. The baffle 202 is symmetrically mounted on the side wall of the crossbeam 102.

[0029] The base 101 provides a stable mounting platform for other components. A sliding member 103 is slidably connected to the middle of the crossbeam 102, allowing for position adjustment along the crossbeam. A track support block 104 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the sliding member 103, supporting the track for the mobile robot; its position can be flexibly adjusted by sliding the sliding member 103 on the crossbeam. An adjusting block 201 is slidably mounted on the inner wall of the base 101, allowing for positional movement within the base. A baffle 202 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the adjusting block 201, serving as a blocking and positioning element. A conveyor belt 203 is adapted to the side wall of the baffle 202. An auxiliary motor 204 is fixedly connected to the upper side wall of the adjusting block 201, its output end being connected to the main shaft of the conveyor belt 203, driving the conveyor belt 203. Two sets of baffles 202 are symmetrically mounted on the side walls of the crossbeam 102, together forming an auxiliary guiding structure for the mobile robot.

[0030] Specifically, the auxiliary component 200 also includes an adjustment motor 205 fixedly connected to the side wall of the base 101, and a lead screw 206 fixedly connected to the output end of the adjustment motor 205. The lead screw 206 is threadedly connected to the lower end of the adjustment block 201 and is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the base 101.

[0031] The adjusting motor 205 can drive the lead screw 206 to rotate, and through the threaded transmission, the adjusting block 201 can slide up and down in the base 101, thereby adjusting the distance between the baffle 202 and the conveyor belt 203 to adapt to the testing of mobile robots of different sizes.

[0032] Furthermore, the auxiliary component 200 also includes a support rod 207 fixedly connected to the end of the baffle 202. The end of the support rod 207 is slidably inserted into the side wall of the base 101, and the side wall of the end of the support rod 207 is inserted into a pin hole that cooperates with the base 101.

[0033] The support rod 207 is used to assist the movement of the baffle 202 and keep the baffle 202 stable above the base 101. After the position of the baffle 202 is adjusted, the support rod can be fixed on the base 101 by passing the pin through the pin hole, which further ensures the stability of the position of the baffle 202.

[0034] Furthermore, the support assembly 100 also includes a fastening bolt 105 inserted into the side wall of the slider 103, with the end of the fastening bolt 105 threadedly connected to the side wall of the crossbeam 102.

[0035] By tightening or loosening the fastening bolts 105, the position of the sliding component 103 on the crossbeam 102 can be fixed or adjusted to ensure the stability of the track support block 104.

[0036] Preferably, the support assembly 100 further includes a guide rod 106 fixedly connected to the side wall of the base 101. The guide rod 106 is snapped onto the outside of the slider 103. The guide rod 106 is symmetrically installed on both sides of the track support block 104, and the side wall of the guide rod 106 is higher than the upper surface of the track support block 104. The adjusting block 201 is slidably installed on the outside of the guide rod 106, and the adjusting block 201 does not contact the crossbeam 102.

[0037] The guide rod 106 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the base 101 and engaged with the outer side of the slider 103, guiding the slider 103 to slide smoothly along the crossbeam. Furthermore, the guide rod 106 is symmetrically installed on both sides of the track support block 104, with its side wall higher than the upper surface of the track support block 104, providing a certain degree of protection for the track support block 104 and the track above it.

[0038] When using the mobile robot to test its straight-line movement, firstly, based on the robot's dimensions and testing requirements, adjust the position of the sliding component 103 on the crossbeam 102 by tightening or loosening the fastening bolts 105. This determines the position of the track support block 104, and the track for the mobile robot is then installed. Next, start the adjusting motor 205, which drives the lead screw 206 to rotate, causing the adjusting block 201 to slide up and down within the base 101, adjusting the baffle 202 and conveyor belt 203 to the appropriate height. After adjustment, fix the baffle 202 by passing a pin through the pin hole at the end of the support rod 207. When the mobile robot travels on the track, the auxiliary motor 204 drives the conveyor belt 203, which can contact the side of the mobile robot, providing auxiliary guidance and position correction during its movement. Simultaneously, by observing the mobile robot's trajectory on the track, it is possible to visually determine whether the mobile robot is traveling in a straight line.

[0039] In summary, the design of the sliding components and fastening bolts in the support assembly allows for flexible adjustment of the track support block's position, adapting to the testing needs of mobile robots of different sizes and types, thus improving the versatility of the testing device. The coordination of the adjusting motor, lead screw, and conveyor belt in the auxiliary assembly allows for adjustment of the baffle and conveyor belt positions according to actual needs, and the conveyor belt provides auxiliary guidance for the mobile robot, helping to more accurately detect the robot's walking straightness. The support rod and pin holes allow for fixing the baffle after its position is adjusted, enhancing the structural stability of the auxiliary assembly. Simultaneously, the guide rod's guiding effect on the sliding components and adjusting blocks ensures smooth sliding of each component during adjustment, improving the overall stability and reliability of the testing device.
