[0002] With the rapid development of service robot technology, robot products for home, education, and entertainment scenarios are becoming increasingly popular, and users are placing higher demands on the personalization of robot appearance and the fun of interaction. To enhance the robot's friendliness and recognizability, decorative accessories for robots have emerged in existing technologies, such as cartoon stickers fixed to the robot's shell, detachable protective shells, or simple decorative covers.
[0003] Currently, most accessories are connected to the robot by means of adhesive or screws, which makes the disassembly process cumbersome and makes it difficult for users to quickly change different styles of decorations; or the outer cover accessories are connected to the robot as a whole, making it impossible to change the outer cover, thus failing to meet the diverse needs of different scenarios and styles. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a robot component that solves the technical problem that current robot accessories are inconvenient to disassemble and cannot meet the diverse needs of different scenarios and styles.
[0005] The embodiments of this application are implemented as follows: a robot component includes a robot body and an outer shell;
[0006] The robot body has an outer surface and a bottom surface that are in contact;

The control board is communicatively connected to the sensing mechanism and the robot body, and the protective sleeve is fitted over the control board.
[0016] In one possible implementation, the protective sleeve forms a waterproof sealed cavity, and the control board is located in the waterproof sealed cavity.
[0017] The technical advantages of this application embodiment compared to the prior art are as follows: This robot component, by employing a flexible cover and coupled with detachable first and second connecting parts, can utilize the flexibility of the cover to adapt to the shape of the robot body's outer surface, achieving stable coverage of a portion of the outer surface. Furthermore, the detachable connection of the first and second connecting parts flexibly limits the size of the first opening, ensuring that the cover is not easily detached after being connected to the robot body. In addition, the design of the first and second connecting parts simplifies the loading and unloading operation of the cover, allowing users to quickly remove the cover and replace it with other covers of different styles to meet their personalized needs. Moreover, the cooperation between the flexible cover and the first and second connecting parts enhances the product's ease of use and interactive appeal while ensuring connection stability.

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0031] With the rapid development of service robot technology, robot products for home, education, and entertainment scenarios are becoming increasingly popular, and users are placing higher demands on the personalization of robot appearance and the fun of interaction. To enhance the robot's friendliness and recognizability, decorative accessories for robots have emerged in existing technologies, such as cartoon stickers fixed to the robot's shell, detachable protective shells, or simple decorative covers.
[0032] Currently, most accessories are connected to the robot by means of adhesive or screws, which makes the disassembly process cumbersome and makes it difficult for users to quickly change different styles of decorations; or the outer cover accessories are connected to the robot as a whole, making it impossible to change the outer cover, thus failing to meet the diverse needs of different scenarios and styles.
[0033] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a robot component whose accessories can be quickly disassembled and replaced to meet diverse scenario requirements.
[0034] In this application embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 The robot component includes a robot body 10 and an outer casing 20. The robot body 10 can be a companion robot, a home service robot, a marketing robot, etc., and can realize at least one of the following functions: audio playback, voice chat, and home control. The outer casing 20 can be placed over the robot body 10, and the shape of the outer casing 20 includes, but is not limited to, animal shapes, human shapes, cartoon shapes, anthropomorphic shapes, and abstract art shapes, to enhance the aesthetics and fun of the robot component.
[0035] Please combine Figure 2 The robot body 10 has an outer surface 101 and a bottom surface 102 that are in contact with each other. When in use, the bottom surface 102 of the robot body 10 can be placed on an external support surface such as a table or the bottom surface 102. The outer surface 101 can be the surface exposed to the user, and it can be arched. In the illustrated embodiment, the robot body 10 can be spherical, with its cross-section forming the bottom surface 102 and its spherical portion forming the outer surface 101. In other embodiments, the robot body 10 can also be cube-shaped, in which case one face of the cube is the bottom surface 102, and the other five faces together form the outer surface 101 of the robot body 10; this is not a limitation.
[0036] The outer garment 20 includes a main body 21, which includes a cover 211, a first connecting part 212, and a second connecting part 213.
[0037] The cover portion 211 can be flexible, and both the first connecting portion 212 and the second connecting portion 213 are connected to the cover portion 211. The cover portion 211 is hood-shaped, that is, the cover portion 211 is a flexible structure similar to a pocket. The cover portion 211 has a first opening 201 facing the direction of the bottom surface 102. The cover portion 211 can cover at least a portion of the outer surface 101 of the robot body 10. That is, when the cover portion 211 covers the robot body 10 through the first opening 201, the cover portion 211 covers at least a portion of the outer surface 101 of the robot body 10, and the bottom surface 102 of the robot body 10 can be at least partially exposed at the first opening 201. In other embodiments, the cover portion 211 can also be made of rigid or plastic materials, which is not limited here.
[0038] Preferably, a charging port 103 is provided on the bottom surface 102 of the robot body 10 at a position corresponding to the first opening 201. This charging port 103 can be connected to an external charging device through the first opening 201 to charge the robot body 10. A pull ring 25 is provided on the outer cover 20, allowing the robot body and the outer cover 20 to be easily hung on the user's bag or clothing for convenient companionship. The pull ring 25 may have exclusive information (such as brand and / or series name) adapted to the robot body 10 and / or the outer cover 20.
[0039] Please combine Figure 3 The first connecting part 212 and the second connecting part 213 can be detachably connected to limit the size of the first opening 201. The detachable connection methods of the first connecting part 212 and the second connecting part 213 include, but are not limited to, snap-fit, fastening, Velcro, hooking, and strap connection. The first connecting part 212 and the second connecting part 213 can be structural components added to the cover part 211, or they can be virtual parts provided on the connecting structure, such as groove-shaped structures or hole-shaped structures. There are no restrictions here, as long as the detachable connection can be achieved. Limiting the size of the first opening 201 means that the detachable connection of the first connecting part 212 and the second connecting part 213 allows the size of the first opening 201 to be reduced, so that the edge of the first opening 201 can be tightly fitted to the outer surface 101 of the robot body 10 by tension, or the first opening 201 can be tightened beyond the maximum cross-section of the robot body 10 or beyond the bottom surface 102 of the robot body 10, thereby preventing the robot body 10 from coming out of the outer cover 20. In use, the first connecting part 212 and the second connecting part 213 can be opened and separated (e.g., Figure 4 To increase the size of the first opening, the sleeve body 21 can be fitted onto the robot body 10 from top to bottom. Then, the first connecting part 212 and the second connecting part 213 can be detachably connected (e.g., ...). Figure 3This is to prevent the outer cover 20 from detaching from the robot body 10. It should be noted that the aforementioned maximum cross-section refers to the cross-section with the largest area among those parallel to the ground.
[0040] This robot component employs a flexible cover 211, coupled with detachable first connecting parts 212 and second connecting parts 213. This allows the cover 211 to adapt to the shape of the outer surface 101 of the robot body 10, providing stable coverage for a portion of the outer surface 101. Furthermore, the detachable connection of the first connecting parts 212 and second connecting parts 213 flexibly limits the size of the first opening 201, ensuring that the cover 20 does not easily detach after being connected to the robot body 10. In addition, the design of the first connecting parts 212 and second connecting parts 213 simplifies the installation and removal of the cover 20, allowing users to quickly remove it and replace it with different styles to meet their individual needs. The cooperation between the flexible cover 211 and the first and second connecting parts 212 and second connecting parts 213 also enhances the product's ease of use and interactive appeal while ensuring connection stability.
[0041] Optionally, the outer casing 20 can be made of elastic polymer materials, leather, or fabric. Elastic polymer materials include, but are not limited to, rubber, slush, and silicone. Rubber is a traditional elastic material with high elasticity and wear resistance; slush is a processed form of rubber, made through a slush molding process, and is relatively soft and resilient; silicone is a special synthetic rubber with characteristics such as high temperature resistance, aging resistance, and strong chemical stability. All three have good flexibility and elasticity, are wear-resistant, dirt-resistant, and easy to clean. Leather outer casing 20 has a high-end feel, giving a refined and durable impression, which can enhance the overall temperament and grade of the robot. Fabric materials use fibers as the basic raw material and can be made into various flexible materials through processes such as spinning, weaving, needle punching, and napping. Among them, common materials are cloth and plush. Fabric materials have common characteristics such as soft texture, strong plasticity, and good breathability, making them suitable as materials for products such as robot outer casing 20 that need to come into contact with the human body or emphasize tactile experience.
[0042] In practical applications, the outer shell 20 can be made of breathable and heat-dissipating materials or structures, such as knitted materials and / or large mesh structures. This outer shell 20 can enable the sound emitted by the robot body 10 to be played almost without loss through its own mesh or material breathability, while meeting the heat dissipation requirements and preventing heat accumulation in the robot body 10 from affecting electronic control functions such as display and light emission.
[0043] Please see Figure 1In some embodiments, the outer surface 101 has a display area 1011 for displaying images. This display area 1011 can display basic interactive images, such as emoticons (smile, confusion, blink, etc.) to express the robot's state, and guidance symbols (arrows, click icons, etc.) to prompt operation. It can also display information display content, such as time, weather icons, notification pop-ups, etc., and can also display dynamic interactive images, such as lip animations to accompany voice interaction, scene-based illustrations that change according to environmental changes (such as displaying the moon and stars at night), and user-defined pictures or emoticons, thereby enhancing the visual interaction between the robot and the user and improving the fun and personalization of the user experience. The outer cover 20 has a second opening 202 that avoids the display area 1011. When the outer cover 20 is placed on the robot body 10, the display area 1011 can be exposed at the second opening 202. When the first connecting portion 212 and the second connecting portion 213 are spaced apart, the first opening 201 and the second opening 202 are connected, that is, the first opening 201 and the second opening 202 together form a larger opening to facilitate the sleeve being fitted onto the robot body 10. When the first connecting portion 212 and the second connecting portion 213 are connected, the first connecting portion 212 and the second connecting portion 213 together separate the first opening 201 and the second opening 202 to respectively define the size of the first opening 201 and the size of the second opening 202.
[0044] Please see Figure 1 In some embodiments, the outer shell can be animal-shaped. In the illustrated embodiment, the outer shell 20 is cat-shaped, with two upright ears 2111 on both sides of the cover 211. The main body 21 also includes two strip-shaped limbs 214, one end of which is connected to the edge of the cover 211 and to opposite sides of the second opening 202. In the illustrated embodiment, the two limbs 214 are connected to the left and right sides of the second opening 202, respectively. This allows the two limbs 214 to overlap below the display area 1011, ensuring that the second opening 202 avoids obstructing most of the display area 1011, guaranteeing unobstructed display functionality of the robot body 10 and smooth information interaction. Simultaneously, the limbs 214 can simulate the front legs of a cat, conforming to the animal image and significantly enhancing the aesthetics and appeal of the outer shell 20, thus increasing its attractiveness to users. The first connecting part 212 and the second connecting part 213 are respectively connected to one limb 214. In this way, when the two limbs 214 overlap each other, the first connecting part 212 and the second connecting part 213 can be detachably connected. While simplifying the operation steps and improving the convenience of loading and unloading the outer cover 20, the connection and positioning are naturally achieved through the structure of the limbs 214, which further enhances the stability of the connection between the outer cover 20 and the robot body 10.
[0045] In other embodiments, the limbs 214 may also simulate the hind legs of a cat, or the main body 21 may include four limbs 214, which respectively simulate the two front legs and two hind legs of a cat. No limitation is made here.
[0046] Optionally, the first connecting part 212 can be a snap head, and the second connecting part 213 can be a snap seat. The snap head can be snapped into the snap seat to achieve a detachable connection between the first connecting part 212 and the second connecting part 213.
[0047] Optional, please refer to Figure 2 The main body 21 may also include a tail 215, which is installed on the cover and located on the opposite side of the second opening 202. The tail 215 can simulate the tail part of a cat.
[0048] In some embodiments, the limb 214 can be bent and deformed to more realistically simulate the natural shape of the forelegs (such as curled-up or draped postures), making the overall animal image more vivid and lifelike, and enhancing user visual appeal. Simultaneously, the deformation function allows the limb 214 to adapt to different angles during the overlapping process, flexibly avoiding the display area 1011, and optimizing the docking stability between the first connecting part 212 and the second connecting part 213 by adjusting the bending amplitude. Furthermore, users can manually bend the limb 214 to achieve diverse shape changes, further enriching the product's personalized expression and interactive gameplay. The bending and deformation can be achieved through an electric structure or external force. The limb 214 can be made of a malleable material and can be formed by sequentially rotating and connecting multiple rigid structural components; no limitations are imposed here.
[0049] Please see Figure 5In some embodiments, the outer garment 20 further includes a drive mechanism 22 connected to the limb portion 214 and capable of driving the limb portion 214 to switch between a bent state and an unfolded state. When the drive mechanism 22 is in the bent state, the distance between the two extension ends is smaller than the distance between the two extension ends when it is in the unfolded state. That is, the drive mechanism 22 folds when in the bent state to simulate the movement of a cat's front legs curling up, and unfolds when in the unfolded state to simulate the movement of a cat's front legs extending. In this way, the drive mechanism 22 can enhance the fit between the shape of the outer garment 20 and the animal form, significantly improving the vividness and fun of the interaction process. The drive mechanism 22 can adjust the distance between the two extension ends by changing the state of the limb portion 214; in the bent state, folding reduces space occupation, and in the unfolded state, flattening optimizes the layout of the limb portion 214. Meanwhile, the drive mechanism 22, in conjunction with the limb 214, enables the first connecting part 212 and the second connecting part 213 to approach each other, and even automatically align and connect, making the connection operation more convenient and further enhancing the flexibility of the outer shell 20 in cooperation with the robot body 10 and the intelligence of the user experience.
[0050] Optionally, the drive mechanism 22 can be communicatively connected to the robot body 10, in which case the user can switch the state of the drive mechanism 22 by interacting with the robot body 10. Alternatively, the drive mechanism 22 may not be communicatively connected to the robot body 10, but instead have an operating structure located on another part of the body 21, allowing the user to switch the state of the drive mechanism 22 by pressing or rotating this operating structure. The aforementioned communication connection methods include, but are not limited to, wired and wireless connections.
[0051] Optionally, the drive mechanism 22 includes a drive member 221, a first drive rod 222 and a second drive rod 223. The end of the first drive rod 222 is rotatably connected to the end of the second drive rod 223. The drive member 221 can drive the first drive rod 222 and the second drive rod 223 to rotate relative to each other. The connection between the first drive rod 222 and the second drive rod 223 can simulate the joint of the foreleg.
[0052] Please see Figure 4 In some embodiments, the limb 214 has a simulated area 2140, on which skin texture is provided. This further enhances the realism of the front legs in the cat costume, making the limb 214 (simulating the front legs) more visually and tactilely similar to the physical characteristics of a real cat, thereby improving the appeal of the coat 20 and the user's sense of intimacy. At the same time, the delicate skin texture enriches the tactile experience when the user touches the limb 214, and combined with the bending and overlapping movements of the limb 214, makes the overall interaction more immersive and realistic, further enhancing the product's fun and emotional connection.
[0053] Please see Figure 5 In some embodiments, the outer casing 20 further includes a sensing mechanism 23, which is disposed on the limb portion 214 and corresponds to the simulation area 2140. The sensing mechanism 23 is used to sense external touch and is communicatively connected to the robot body 10. When the user touches the simulation area 2140, the sensing mechanism 23 can sense the external touch, enabling the robot body 10 to perform the corresponding function. This corresponding function can be an image change in the display area 1011 (such as changing facial expressions, popping up relevant information, etc.), or it can be emitting sound, moving position, controlling the drive mechanism 22 to change state, triggering the central control function of the robot body 10, etc., without limitation. The sensing mechanism 23 includes, but is not limited to, pressure sensors, photoelectric sensors, Hall sensors, etc. The sensing mechanism 23 can be disposed inside or outside the limb portion 214. When the user touches the simulation area 2140, they can directly touch the sensing mechanism 23, indirectly touch the sensing mechanism 23, or be spaced apart from the sensing mechanism 23, without limitation.
[0054] Please see Figure 5 In some embodiments, the outer cover 20 has an inner fleece layer 2101 and an outer fleece layer 2102 connected together. The inner fleece layer 2101 and the outer fleece layer 2102 are overlapped, with their edges sewn together and the remaining portions attached. The fleece side of the inner fleece layer 2101 faces away from the fleece side of the outer fleece layer 2102 to form the plush appearance of the outer cover 20, enhancing the cute texture and visual appeal of the cat design. When the outer cover 20 is placed on the robot body 10, the inner fleece layer 2101 contacts the outer surface 101 of the robot body 10, and the outer fleece layer 2102 is disposed outside the inner fleece layer 2101. The soft properties of the fleece layer 2101 reduce friction between the outer cover 20 and the robot body 10, thus protecting the outer surface 101 of the robot body 10.
[0055] Optionally, an inner cavity is formed between the inner fleece layer 2101 and the outer fleece layer 2102. The outer casing 20 also includes a control board and a protective sleeve 24, both disposed within the inner cavity. The control board can be a flexible printed circuit (FPC) to accommodate the flexible material properties of the outer casing 20 and the bending motion of the limb 214, ensuring a stable and reliable communication connection between the sensing mechanism 23 and the robot body 10. The control board is communicatively connected to both the sensing mechanism 23 and the robot body 10, and the protective sleeve 24 is fitted over the control board. The protective sleeve 24 reduces friction between the casing 21 and the control board, prevents fluff and debris from affecting the function of the control board, and prevents the edges of the control board from hooking or cutting the casing 21, thus improving the reliability of the casing 21 and the control board. It should be noted that both the sensing mechanism 23 and the drive mechanism 22 can be located within the inner cavity, and the control board can be communicatively connected to both the sensing mechanism 23 and the drive mechanism 22.
[0056] In other embodiments, the control board may also be a rigid circuit board, or may include both flexible and rigid circuit boards, without limitation.
[0057] Optionally, the protective sleeve 24 forms a waterproof sealed cavity. That is, the protective sleeve 24 can be made of a waterproof material, such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyurethane (PU), or nitrile rubber, and the cavity walls are sealed to achieve a waterproof seal. The control panel is located within the waterproof sealed cavity. The protective sleeve 24 further isolates any lint, debris, or slight moisture that may be present within the cavity, providing physical protection for the control panel and extending its service life. This ensures both the functionality and aesthetics of the outer sleeve 20 while improving the overall structural stability and durability.
[0058] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application, and only specifically describe the technical principles of this application. These descriptions are only for explaining the principles of this application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this application in any way. Based on this explanation, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application, as well as other specific embodiments of this application that can be conceived by those skilled in the art without creative effort, should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
