[0002] A quadruped robot is a biomimetic robot that moves using four mechanical legs. Its locomotion principle mimics the walking pattern of quadrupedal animals (such as dogs and horses) in nature, enabling it to move in complex terrain. It typically consists of a mechanical structure, a drive system, sensors, and a control system. Through algorithms, it can control the coordinated movement of its limbs to perform actions such as moving forward, turning, and jumping.

[0003] However, firefighters are currently exposed to high temperatures, dense smoke, and toxic gases when transporting fire-fighting supplies, which can lead to heatstroke and poisoning. At the same time, dense smoke can severely impair firefighters' vision, making it difficult for them to see the road and the surrounding environment, increasing the risk of falls and collisions with obstacles during transportation. To address these issues, we propose a quadruped robot to assist in transporting fire-fighting supplies. Utility Model Content

[0017] According to one embodiment of the present invention, in conjunction with the appended drawings Figure 1-4 As shown.

[0018] A quadruped robot for assisting in fire transportation includes a quadruped robot body 1 and a remote control module 8. Support legs 2 are hinged to the outer surface of the quadruped robot body 1, and a placement seat 3 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the quadruped robot body 1. A material placement frame 4 is provided above the support legs 2, and a reinforcing plate 405 is provided inside the material placement frame 4. Multiple mounting holes 404 are opened on the upper surface of the reinforcing plate 405, and the mounting holes 404 are threadedly connected to the upper surface of the placement seat 33 by mounting nails.

[0019] In this embodiment, a receiver 5 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the placement base 3, and an antenna 6 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the receiver 5 to enhance the signal reception effect. A protective pad 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of each support leg 2. The protective pad 7 is made of high-temperature resistant material, which can maximize the protection of the support leg 2. Two positioning plates 401 are provided below the material placement frame 4. The upper surface of each positioning plate 401 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the material placement frame 4, and the positioning plate 401 is adapted to the placement base 3 to position the material placement frame 4. Two sets of positioning posts 403 are provided below the material placement frame 4. The top of each positioning post 403 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the material placement frame 4, and the positioning post 403 is engaged with the upper surface of the placement base 3 to accurately position the material placement frame 4.

[0020] In this embodiment, multiple sets of equidistant connecting slots 402 are provided on the bottom surface of the material placement frame 4 and the upper surface of the reinforcing plate 405. The connecting slots 402 are connected to the reinforcing plate 405 through positioning blocks 406, which facilitates the installation of the material placement frame 4. The remote control module 8 is electrically connected to the signal receiving module 9 through wires. The signal receiving module 9 is electrically connected to the controller 10 through wires. The controller 10 is electrically connected to the execution module 12 through wires. The execution module 12 is electrically connected to the vision sensor 13 through wires. The vision sensor 13 is electrically connected to the obstacle avoidance module 14 through wires. The controller 10 is electrically connected to the storage module 11 through wires. A real-time detection module 15 and a temperature sensor 16 are electrically connected via wires. Commands are sent via a remote control module 8, and signals are received and transmitted to a controller 10 via a signal receiving module 9. The controller 10 controls the movement of the quadruped robot body 1 through an execution module 12 according to the commands, enabling it to walk stably in complex environments. A vision sensor 13 and an obstacle avoidance module 14 work together to help the robot identify obstacles and select gentle routes to avoid them, ensuring transportation safety.

[0021] Working principle: In use, commands are first sent through the remote control module 8. After receiving these commands, the signal receiving module 9 transmits the signals to the controller 10. The controller 10 then controls the movement of the quadruped robot body 1 through the execution module 12 based on the received command signals, enabling it to walk stably in complex environments. At the same time, the visual sensor 13 and the obstacle avoidance module 14 work together to help the robot identify obstacles in front of it and effectively avoid them, and choose a relatively gentle route to ensure the safety of the transportation process. The real-time detection module 15 and the temperature sensor 16 are responsible for monitoring the temperature and real-time conditions of the surrounding environment. Once an abnormality is detected, such as excessively high temperature, it will immediately feed back to the controller 10. The controller 10 will make corresponding adjustments based on this information, such as changing the route or pausing to ensure the safety of firefighters and the robot. The storage module 11 is used to store the robot's operating data and monitoring information, which can effectively assist firefighters in transporting fire-fighting materials, improve work efficiency, and reduce safety risks. In addition, the shell of the quadruped robot body 1 is made of high-temperature resistant material.
