Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of charging pile technology, specifically a robot charging pile that is designed for docking. Background Technology

[0002] The fully automated charging station requires no manual operation. The robot will automatically go to the charging station to charge when it is not in use, based on its working status and remaining battery power.

[0003] Currently available robot charging stations struggle to effectively limit robot movement, resulting in unstable charging interface connections and frequent poor contact. Furthermore, during docking, the robot connector and charging interface are in rigid contact; inaccurate docking can easily damage the robot connector or charging interface, thereby affecting electrical efficiency and equipment lifespan.

[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides a robot charging station that is biased towards docking, in order to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention provides a robot charging station that is biased towards docking, aiming to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A robot charging station with a docking orientation includes a charging station body and a charging slot. The charging slot is located at the bottom center of the surface of the charging station body, and a charging interface is provided inside the charging slot.

[0007] The charging pile body has slots at both ends on the back side. A rotating plate is rotatably installed on the top of the inner side of the slot. A telescopic diagonal brace is fixedly installed at the bottom of the rotating plate. A base is fixedly installed at the bottom of the telescopic diagonal brace.

[0008] Guide rails are fixedly installed on both sides of the inner wall of the charging slot. A lead screw is rotatably installed inside the guide rail. A slider is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the lead screw. A positioning plate is fixedly installed on one side of the slider surface.

[0009] The slot on the back, together with the rotatable rotating plate, telescopic diagonal brace and base, can flexibly adjust the support angle and height, which not only enhances the stability of the charging pile when placed, adapts to different ground environments, but also facilitates storage and saves space; the combination of guide rail, lead screw, slider and positioning plate in the charging slot can drive the slider to move along the guide rail by rotating the lead screw, thereby adjusting the position of the positioning plate, which can limit the robot docking for charging, ensure that the charging interface docking is stable and avoid poor contact.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this application, a servo motor is fixedly installed on one side of the lead screw. By starting the servo motor, the lead screw rotates, which drives the slider and positioning plate to slide and adjust along the inner wall of the charging tank. The servo motor drives the lead screw to rotate, which drives the slider and positioning plate to slide and adjust along the inner wall of the charging tank. This ensures a rapid response and completes the limit action when the robot docks for charging, improving the efficiency and accuracy of charging docking and making the entire charging preparation process more convenient and reliable.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this application, a fixing plate is fixedly installed on one side of the positioning plate, and a buffer spring rod is fixedly installed on one side of the fixing plate. A compression block is telescopically sleeved on the surface of the buffer spring rod, which can provide flexible buffering when the robot docks for charging, avoiding damage caused by hard collision between the robot and the positioning plate. At the same time, the elastic force of the buffer spring rod can make the compression block fit tightly against the charging part of the robot, further enhancing the stability of docking, reducing shaking during the charging process, and ensuring the continuity and stability of charging.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the fixed plate is L-shaped, and the two sides of the surface of the extrusion block slide against the two sides of the inner wall of the fixed plate. A through hole is opened in the center of the extrusion block, which is perpendicular to and corresponds to the buffer spring rod and is slidably sleeved with the buffer spring rod. This can provide stable guidance for the movement of the extrusion block, ensuring that it does not deviate during the buffering process, and can also protect the buffer spring rod, preventing it from bending and being damaged due to uneven force, thus extending the service life of the buffer structure and improving the reliability of the overall structure.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the charging pile body is supported by telescopic diagonal braces and a base. The angles of the telescopic diagonal braces and the base can be adjusted on both sides of the back of the charging pile body by rotating plates. By adjusting the angles on both sides of the back of the charging pile body by rotating plates, the charging pile body can flexibly adjust its support posture according to the actual placement environment. Whether it is an inclined ground or an uneven site, it can be stably placed by adjusting multiple angles and heights. Moreover, it plays a fixing role when the robot docks with the charging pile body, ensuring stable docking between the robot and the charging pile body.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the buffer spring rod and the squeezing block are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the outer surface of the charging interface. They can apply a balanced clamping force to the robot charging part from both sides, ensuring that the charging interface of the robot charging head and the charging pile body are in the center position when docking. This avoids docking deviation caused by force offset, ensures accurate docking of the charging interface, reduces the probability of poor contact, and improves charging efficiency and success rate.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution of this application, a control button is provided on the top of the charging pile body, and heat dissipation holes are provided on the side of the charging pile body.

[0016] The combination of guide rails, lead screws, sliders, and positioning plates within the charging slot allows the slider to move along the guide rails via the rotation of the lead screw, adjusting the position of the positioning plate and effectively limiting the robot's movement. This ensures a secure connection of the charging interface and prevents poor contact. A servo motor on the lead screw surface drives it to rotate rapidly, causing the slider and positioning plate to respond quickly and complete the limiting action, improving the efficiency and accuracy of the charging connection. The L-shaped fixing plate, buffer spring rods, and pressing block structure on the positioning plate not only provide stable guidance for the pressing block, preventing its deviation, but also provide flexible buffering through the elasticity of the buffer spring rods, preventing damage from hard collisions. Furthermore, the symmetrically distributed buffer spring rods and pressing blocks on both sides apply a balanced clamping force, ensuring the charging interface connection and reducing the probability of poor contact.

[0017] The slot on the back, together with the rotatable rotating plate, telescopic diagonal brace and base, allows for flexible adjustment of the support angle and height. This not only enhances the stability of the charging pile when placed, making it adaptable to different ground environments such as sloping ground and uneven terrain, but also facilitates storage to save space. Furthermore, by adjusting the angle of the telescopic diagonal brace and base on both sides of the back using the rotating plate, the support posture can be further adjusted flexibly. This provides a stable and secure fixation when the robot docks with the charging pile, ensuring a stable and reliable docking process. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] This utility model provides a robot charging station that is biased towards docking, such as... Figure 1-5 As shown, it includes a charging pile body 100 and a charging slot 200. The charging slot 200 is located at the center of the bottom of the surface of the charging pile body 100, and a charging interface 201 is provided inside the charging slot 200.

[0022] The charging pile body 100 has slots 103 at both ends on the back side. A rotating plate 104 is rotatably installed on the top of the inner side of the slot 103. A telescopic brace 105 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the rotating plate 104. A base 106 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the telescopic brace 105.

[0023] Guide rails 202 are fixedly installed on both sides of the inner wall of the charging slot 200. A lead screw 203 is rotatably installed inside the guide rail 202. A slider 204 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the lead screw 203. A positioning plate 205 is fixedly installed on one side of the surface of the slider 204.

[0024] The slot 103 on the back, together with the rotatable rotating plate 104, the telescopic diagonal brace 105 and the base 106, can flexibly adjust the support angle and height, which not only enhances the stability of the charging pile body 100 when placed, adapts to different ground environments, but also facilitates storage and saves space; the guide rail 202, lead screw 203, slider 204 and positioning plate 205 in the charging slot 200 can be combined to drive the slider 204 to move along the guide rail 202 by rotating the lead screw 203, thereby adjusting the position of the positioning plate 205, which can limit the robot docking for charging, ensure that the charging interface 201 docks firmly and avoids poor contact.

[0025] like Figure 4 As shown, a servo motor is fixedly installed on one side of the lead screw 203. By starting the servo motor, the lead screw 203 rotates, causing the slider 204 and the positioning plate 205 to slide and adjust threadedly on both sides of the inner wall of the charging tank 200. The servo motor drives the lead screw 203 to rotate, causing the slider 204 and the positioning plate 205 to slide and adjust threadedly on both sides of the inner wall of the charging tank 200. This ensures a rapid response and completion of limit actions during robot docking and charging, improving the efficiency and accuracy of charging docking, and making the entire charging preparation process more convenient and reliable.

[0026] like Figure 5As shown, a fixing plate 206 is fixedly installed on one side of the surface of the positioning plate 205, and a buffer spring rod 208 is fixedly installed on one side of the surface of the fixing plate 206. A pressing block 207 is telescopically sleeved on the surface of the buffer spring rod 208, which can provide flexible buffering when the robot docks for charging, avoiding damage caused by hard collision between the robot and the positioning plate 205. At the same time, the elastic force of the buffer spring rod 208 can make the pressing block 207 fit tightly against the charging part of the robot, further enhancing the stability of docking, reducing shaking during the charging process, and ensuring the continuity and stability of charging.

[0027] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the fixed plate 206 is L-shaped, and the two sides of the surface of the extrusion block 207 slide against the two sides of the inner wall of the fixed plate 206. A through hole is opened in the center of the extrusion block 207, which is perpendicular to and corresponds to the buffer spring rod 208 and is slidably sleeved with the buffer spring rod 208. This provides a stable guide for the movement of the extrusion block 207, ensuring that it does not deviate during the buffering process. It also protects the buffer spring rod 208, preventing it from bending and being damaged due to uneven force, thus extending the service life of the buffer structure and improving the reliability of the overall structure.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the charging pile body 100 is supported by a telescopic diagonal brace 105 and a base 106. The telescopic diagonal brace 105 and the base 106 can be adjusted at different angles on both sides of the back of the charging pile body 100 via a rotating plate 104. By adjusting the angle on both sides of the back of the charging pile body 100 via the rotating plate 104, the charging pile body 100 can flexibly adjust its support posture according to the actual placement environment. Whether on an inclined ground or an uneven site, it can be placed stably through multi-angle and multi-height adjustments. Furthermore, it plays a fixing role when the robot docks with the charging pile body 100 for charging, ensuring stable docking between the robot and the charging pile body 100.

[0029] like Figure 5 As shown, the buffer spring rod 208 and the squeezing block 207 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the outer surface of the charging interface 201. They can apply a balanced clamping force to the robot charging part from both sides, ensuring that the robot charging head and the charging interface 201 of the charging pile body 100 are in the center position when docking. This avoids docking deviation caused by force offset, ensures accurate docking of the charging interface 201, reduces the probability of poor contact, and improves charging efficiency and success rate.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, a control button 101 is provided on the top of the charging pile body 100, and a heat dissipation hole 102 is provided on the side of the charging pile body 100.

[0031] In summary: First, by adjusting the rotating plate 104 in the back slot 103, the telescopic brace 105 and the base 106 are rotated to a suitable angle, and the length of the telescopic brace 105 is adjusted to ensure that the base 106 is firmly in contact with the ground, thereby stably placing the charging pile body 100 in the required position; when the robot needs to be charged, the servo motor on one side of the lead screw 203 is activated, and the servo motor drives the lead screw 203 to rotate within the guide rail 202. The rotation of the lead screw 203 drives the threaded slider 204 to slide along the guide rail 202, thereby driving the stationary... The positioning plate 205 moves to position the robot's periphery. When the robot moves to the charging slot 200 and aligns with the charging interface 201, the pressing block 207 on the robot positioning plate 205 slides along the inner wall of the L-shaped fixing plate 206 under the contact action of the robot, while simultaneously pressing the buffer spring rod 208. The elastic reaction force of the buffer spring rod 208 makes the pressing block 207 fit tightly against the robot's charging part, applying a balanced clamping force from both sides to ensure that the robot's charging head is precisely connected to the charging interface 201 in the charging slot 200, thus completing the charging process.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
