Detailed Implementation

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0019] Example: A wireless charging track system for a humanoid robot during movement, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the system includes a robot 1, a mobile base 2, track assemblies 3, a charging track 4, an electric push rod 5, a wireless charging module 6, a limiting block 7, and a guide rod 8. The robot 1 is mounted on the mobile base 2, and the track assemblies 3 are mounted on the left and right sides of the mobile base 2. The segmented charging track 4 is laid on the ground, and the charging track 4 is located between the track assemblies 3 at the bottom of the mobile base 2. A square groove is formed on the mobile base 2, and the electric push rod 5 is fixedly connected in the square groove. The wireless charging module 6 is fixedly connected to the telescopic rod of the electric push rod 5. The wireless charging module 6 slides inside the square groove. The limiting blocks 7 are symmetrically fixedly connected inside the square groove, and the guide rods 8 are slidably connected to the limiting blocks 7. The bottom of the guide rods 8 is fixedly connected to the wireless charging module 6.

[0020] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, it also includes an electric slide rail 9, a moving part 10, and a baffle 11. The electric slide rail 9 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the square slot opening at the bottom of the moving seat 2. The moving part 10 is slidably connected to the electric slide rail 9. The moving part 10 is fixedly connected to the baffle 11. The baffle 11 is used to close the square slot opening when not charging, protecting the wireless charging module 6 from external environmental interference.

[0021] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, it also includes a sealing ring 12, a wedge block 1201, a return spring 1202, and an extrusion block 1203. The sealing ring 12 is slidably provided on the top of the baffle 11. The wedge block 1201 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable seat 2. The extrusion block 1203 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the sealing ring 12. The extrusion block 1203 contacts the wedge block 1201. The return spring 1202 is provided between the sealing ring 12 and the baffle 11. One end of the return spring 1202 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sealing ring 12, and the other end of the return spring 1202 is fixedly connected to the top of the baffle 11. The sealing ring 12 is used to seal the gap between the baffle 11 and the movable seat 2.

[0022] like Figure 4As shown, it also includes a spacing sensor 13. The spacing sensor 13 is installed at the bottom of the wireless charging module 6. The moving base 2 is equipped with a control system. The spacing sensor 13 is electrically connected to the electric push rod 5 through the control system. The spacing sensor 13 is used to detect the distance between the wireless charging module 6 and the charging track 4.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, it also includes a soft pad 14. The soft pad 14 is provided on the left and right edges of the charging track 4. When the track assembly 3 rolls over the edge of the track, the soft pad 14 can prevent the two from making hard contact and causing damage.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, it also includes a light strip 15, which is installed on the movable base 2 and is used to display the charging status.

[0025] The robot 1 moves as a whole via the track assemblies 3 on both sides of the mobile base 2. The track assemblies 3 contact the ground, providing driving force and support. When the system detects that the robot 1 has moved above the segmented charging track 4, the track assemblies 3 continue to travel above the track. The system identifies the position of the charging track 4 and triggers the charging program. The electric slide rail 9 drives the baffle 11 to open, exposing the wireless charging module 6 in the square slot. After the extrusion block 1203 on the sealing ring 12 contacts the inclined surface of the wedge block 1201, it squeezes the return spring 1202 at the bottom of the sealing ring 12, preventing the sealing ring 12 from continuously contacting the bottom surface of the mobile base 2 during the movement of the baffle 11, thus reducing wear on the sealing ring 12. The distance sensor 13 detects the distance between the wireless charging module 6 and the charging track 4 below in real time and transmits the data to the control system of the mobile base 2. The control system drives the robot 12 according to the data from the distance sensor 13. The electric push rod 5 extends downward, causing the wireless charging module 6 to move downward. Under the constraint of the guide rod 8 and the limiting block 7, the wireless charging module 6 is ensured to move vertically and stably close to the charging track 4, avoiding deviation. At the same time, the optimal charging distance is adjusted according to the spacing data to ensure charging efficiency, and the power of the track is transferred to the wireless charging module 6, which then powers the battery of the robot 1. The light strip 15 on the moving seat 2 indicates the charging status. When the robot 1 leaves the area of ​​the charging track 4, the electric push rod 5 retracts, moving the wireless charging module 6 upward and back into the square slot. At this time, the electric slide rail 9 drives the baffle 11 to close the opening of the square slot. With the cooperation of the sealing ring 12 on the top of the baffle 11, the sealing ring 12 is reset under the action of the return spring 1202, forming a sealed protection for the square slot, preventing the wireless charging module 6 from being exposed to the outside and contaminated by dust, debris or damaged by collision. The light strip 15 indicates the non-charging status.

[0026] It should be understood that this embodiment is for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Furthermore, it should be understood that after reading the teachings of this invention, those skilled in the art can make various alterations or modifications to the invention, and these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
