Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field, specifically a convenient quadruped robot packaging box based on a locking mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Quadruped robots require protective packaging during storage, transportation, and delivery to facilitate handling and loading / unloading. However, conventional packaging typically requires lifting the entire quadruped robot to move it into or out of the box during loading and unloading. For medium to large-sized quadruped robots, whose weight often reaches tens or even hundreds of kilograms, manual lifting has the following significant drawbacks:
[0003] The operation is cumbersome and inefficient: the lifting in / lifting out process involves many steps and takes a long time, which is not convenient.
[0004] High manpower requirements: It is difficult for a single person to complete the task independently, and usually requires two or more people to work together, which increases labor costs.
[0005] Safety risks: Manually lifting heavy robots carries the risk of slippage and collision, which can easily cause injury to the robot or the operator.
[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new packaging solution that can significantly reduce or even eliminate the manual lifting process in the packing and unpacking process of medium and large quadruped robots, thereby improving the ease of operation, safety and efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a convenient quadruped robot packaging box based on a locking mechanism to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0009] A convenient quadruped robot packaging box based on a locking mechanism includes a cubic box body formed by a detachably connected top cover, four side panels, and a bottom plate. The box body contains:
[0010] Separable protective pad assembly: includes an upper pad and a lower pad. The lower pad is composed of a left pad and a right pad that are horizontally embedded and connected to each other, so as to jointly wrap the robot body.
[0011] Quick-release connectors are used to achieve reversible locking between the top cover, side panels, and bottom plate;
[0012] The positioning structure is used for longitudinal disassembly and connection between the upper and lower pads. The positioning structure includes four columnar bosses at the bottom of the upper pad and matching grooves on the top surface of the lower pad. The bosses are embedded in the grooves to achieve axial positioning. The four grooves are respectively opened at the corresponding positions of the left and right pads.
[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the quick-release connector includes a first type of quick-release component and a second type of quick-release component; the first type of quick-release component is used for the connection between the top cover and the side panel, and between adjacent side panels; the first type of quick-release component preferably has a tongue-shaped latch, the tongue-shaped latch bends the latch tongue into the base to achieve locking, and prying up the latch tongue resets and unlocks.
[0014] As a further embodiment of this invention, the tongue-shaped latch can be replaced with a snap-on or magnetic latch for strong magnetic adsorption, thereby achieving the same quick assembly and disassembly function.
[0015] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the second type of quick-release component is used to connect the base plate and the side plate; the second type of quick-release component is preferably a butterfly lock, which is locked by rotating the handle to drive the latch, and unlocked by rotating in the opposite direction.
[0016] As a further embodiment of this invention, the butterfly latch can be replaced with a rotating snap-lock or a pin-type lock to meet the load-bearing connection requirements of the base plate.
[0017] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the lower liner is fixed to the base plate by an adhesive, and the upper liner, left liner, and right liner are set as independent detachable structures;
[0018] As a further improvement of this utility model: a wooden hollow reinforcement frame is fixed to the bottom of the base plate to improve the overall compressive strength, prevent stacking deformation, and form a gap from the ground to avoid ground moisture erosion.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: by using quick-release latches and a detachable box structure, the disassembly and assembly steps are simplified, and a single person can complete the opening / packing process in sequence.
[0020] By eliminating the need for manual lifting of robots weighing tens to hundreds of kilograms, a single person can operate the robot independently, avoiding the risks of slippage and collision caused by manual handling, thus protecting both the robot and the operator.
[0021] The boss-groove padding structure ensures no displacement during robot transportation, and the reinforced frame enhances its pressure resistance.
[0022] The locking mechanism can be replaced with a snap-on, magnetic, or pin-type structure to meet different load-bearing requirements. Attached Figure Description
