[0002] In the current wave of digitalization and intelligentization sweeping the globe, the hotel industry is undergoing profound changes. In order to enhance service competitiveness and meet the growing personalized needs of consumers, more and more hotels are beginning to introduce intelligent service equipment. Hotel room food delivery robots are one of the most eye-catching innovative achievements. With technologies such as autonomous navigation and precise positioning, these robots can safely deliver meals and supplies to guest rooms according to predetermined routes, greatly reducing the manual delivery process. This not only significantly reduces the hotel's operating costs but also efficiently handles a large number of orders during peak hours, bringing customers a novel and convenient check-in experience. It has become a hallmark feature of modern high-end hotels in improving service quality.
[0003] However, in the actual application of hotel room food delivery robots, the way the tray is connected to the robot body, as the core component that directly carries the items, has become a key factor restricting the further improvement of the robot's performance. Currently, the common tray connection technologies on the market have various drawbacks and are difficult to meet the complex and ever-changing service scenarios of hotels.
[0004] The traditional fixed pallet connection method used in existing hotels usually involves welding the pallet firmly to the robot body. While this connection method does ensure high stability of the pallet during operation, disassembly becomes extremely difficult when the pallet is damaged, needs cleaning and disinfection, or other parts of the robot body need repair. Staff must use specialized disassembly tools and spend a lot of time carefully separating the welded parts. This is not only cumbersome but also prone to causing secondary damage to the robot body or the pallet. Moreover, the robot often needs to be taken out of service during maintenance, which undoubtedly affects the efficiency of the hotel's food delivery service, causes inconvenience to the hotel's daily operations, and reduces the practicality of the equipment.

[0030] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a hotel room food delivery robot, including a main body 1 and a control panel 2;
[0031] The main body 1 of the room food delivery robot is equipped with a magnetic limiting component;
[0032] The magnetic limiting assembly includes a mounting base 3, a tray 7, and four movable limiting brackets 5. Protrusions 14 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of both sides of the upper end of the main body 1 of the guest room food delivery robot. The grooves on both sides of the mounting base 3 are slidably connected to the outer walls of the corresponding protrusions 14. Each of the four grooves on the upper end of the tray 7 has a first fixing bolt slot 9. Four second fixing bolts 10 are threadedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting base 3. Two second fixing bolt slots 13 are opened on the upper surface of each of the two protrusions 14. The ends of the four second fixing bolts 10 near the second fixing bolt slots 13 extend threadedly into the grooves on the lower surface of the mounting base 3 and are respectively threadedly connected to the inner threads of the corresponding second fixing bolt slots 13. A tray mounting groove 11 is opened on the upper surface of the mounting base 3. The lower outer wall of the tray 7 is slidably connected to the interior of the tray mounting groove 11. A magnetic block 1 is fixedly installed inside the groove on the bottom surface of the tray mounting groove 11. 5. The upper outer wall of the magnetic block 15 contacts the lower outer wall of the tray 7. Two conical block grooves 12 are opened on both sides of the inner wall of the tray mounting groove 11. The outer walls of the two conical blocks on both sides of the lower end of the tray 7 are slidably connected to the interior of the corresponding conical block grooves 12. Four fixing blocks 4 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the mounting base 3. Each of the four fixing blocks 4 consists of two protrusions. The four movable limit frames 5 are all L-shaped. The lower outer walls of the four movable limit frames 5 are rotatably connected to the opposite side of the two protrusions of the corresponding fixing blocks 4. The upper outer walls of the four movable limit frames 5 are slidably connected to the interior of the four grooves on the upper surface of the tray 7. The upper surfaces of the four movable limit frames 5 are threaded with first fixing bolts 6. The ends of the four first fixing bolts 6 near the first fixing bolt grooves 9 are threaded into the grooves on the tray 7 and are threadedly connected to the interior of the corresponding first fixing bolt grooves 9.
[0033] The control panel 2 is fixedly installed on the upper part of the main body 1 of the room food delivery robot. The main body 1 of the room food delivery robot is electrically connected to the control panel 2. An anti-slip mat 8 is fixedly installed inside the tray 7.
[0034] Furthermore, when using this device, the delivery task is first set via the control panel 2, including parameters such as the target room number and delivery time. The main body 1 of the room delivery robot autonomously navigates to the designated room according to the preset program. Then, during the installation of the tray 7, the operator aligns the grooves on both sides of the mounting base 3 with the protrusions 14 on the main body 1 of the room delivery robot and slides them in. Then, the second fixing bolt 10 passes through the mounting base 3 and is threaded into the second fixing bolt groove 13 on the protrusion 14 to fix the mounting base 3. Next, the lower end of the tray 7 is aligned with the tray mounting groove 11 on the mounting base 3 and inserted. At this time, the conical block at the lower end of the tray 7 cooperates with the conical block groove 12 on the inner wall of the tray mounting groove 11, which plays a role in positioning and initial fixation. At the same time, the magnetic block 15 at the bottom of the tray mounting groove 11 attracts the tray 7, enhancing the connection stability. Then, to further fix the tray 7, the operator rotates the four movable limit brackets 5 around the fixing block 4 into the grooves on the upper surface of the tray 7, and then the first fixing... Bolt 6 passes through the movable limiting frame 5 and is threadedly connected to the first fixing bolt groove 9 on the tray 7, achieving all-round fixation of the tray 7. The anti-slip pad 8 inside the tray 7 increases the friction between the tableware and the tray 7, preventing items from sliding or spilling during food delivery. Then, when it is necessary to disassemble the tray 7, turn the first fixing bolt 6 on the upper surface of the movable limiting frame 5 and rotate the first fixing bolt 6 counterclockwise to gradually disengage it from the first fixing bolt groove 9. At this time, the threaded connection between the movable limiting frame 5 and the tray 7 is released. Rotate the movable limiting frame 5 outward around the rotation connection point between its lower end and the fixing block 4, so that its upper outer wall is disengaged from the groove on the upper surface of the tray 7, releasing the limitation on the upper surface of the tray 7. Then, apply an external force greater than the attraction force of the magnetic block 15 upward, hold both sides of the tray 7 with both hands, and lift it upward steadily and slowly to separate the lower outer wall of the tray 7 from the magnetic block 15, so that the tray 7 is completely separated from the mounting base 3, and the tray 7 is successfully removed from the main body 1 of the guest room food delivery robot.
[0035] By rotating the first fixing bolt 6 in the magnetic limiting assembly to disengage it from the first fixing bolt groove 9, the threaded connection between the movable limiting frame 5 and the tray 7 is released. Rotate the movable limiting frame 5 outward around the rotation connection point between its lower end and the fixing block 4, so that its upper outer wall disengages from the groove on the upper surface of the tray 7, releasing the limitation on the upper surface of the tray 7. Then, apply an external force greater than the attraction force of the magnetic block 15 upward, hold both sides of the tray 7 with both hands, and lift it upward steadily and slowly, so that the lower outer wall of the tray 7 separates from the magnetic block 15, and the tray 7 is completely separated from the mounting base 3, successfully removing the tray 7 from the main body 1 of the guest room food delivery robot. This method of removing the tray 7 is simple and quick, effectively improving the cleaning and maintenance efficiency of the tray 7.
