[0026] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0027] Firstly, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application provides a charging mechanism 100, which includes a base 1 and an adjustment component 2. The adjustment component 2 includes a conductive slide rail 21, a conductive slide block 22, and a conductive fixing seat 23. The conductive slide rail 21 and the conductive fixing seat 23 are disposed on the base 1. The conductive slide block 22 is slidably disposed on the conductive slide rail 21 and is electrically connected to the conductive slide rail 21. The conductive slide block 22 and the conductive fixing seat 23 are respectively used to contact and connect with different charging contacts of the robot to charge the robot. The conductive slide rail 21 and the conductive fixing seat 23 are respectively used to connect with the positive and negative terminals of the power supply. When the conductive slide block 22 slides along the conductive slide rail 21, the conductive slide block 22 is continuously electrically connected to the conductive slide rail 21. Therefore, the conductive slide block 22 and the conductive fixing seat 23 can be used to connect with different contacts of the robot, such as contacting the positive and negative contacts of the robot to charge the robot. By sliding the conductive slide block 22 along the conductive slide rail 21, the distance between the conductive slide block 22 and the conductive fixing seat 23 can be adjusted, thus allowing the charging mechanism 100 to adapt to robots with different charging contact spacings. In charging scenarios involving multiple robot models, the charging mechanism 100 of this embodiment can charge various robot models. When applied to charging stations, the charging mechanism 100 reduces the number of charging stations, lowers charging costs, and reduces the overall space occupied by the charging station. Optionally, the conductive slide rail 21 and the conductive slide block 22 are both made of metal.

[0028] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The adjustment component 2 includes multiple conductive slides 22 and multiple conductive fixing seats 23. It can charge multiple robots simultaneously, and can be multiple robots of different models, reducing the number of charging stations required.

[0029] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2Both the conductive slide 22 and the conductive fixing seat 23 have through holes (not shown). The conductive slide rail 21 passes through the through holes of the conductive slide 22 and the conductive fixing seat 23. The conductive slide 22 is slidably connected to the conductive slide rail 21 through the through holes, and the conductive fixing seat 23 is fixedly connected to the conductive slide rail 21 through the through holes. The conductive fixing seat 23 is used to fix the conductive slide rail 21. The conductive fixing seat 23 is made of insulating material, or an insulating layer, such as an insulating plastic sleeve, is provided between the conductive fixing seat 23 and the conductive slide rail 21.

[0030] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 The base 1 has a first groove 11, and the conductive slide rail 21 is disposed in the first groove 11. The conductive slide block 22 and the conductive fixing seat 23 both extend at least partially out of the first groove 11. The conductive slide rail 21, the conductive slide block 22 and the conductive fixing seat 23 are hidden inside the base 1, which helps to protect the conductive slide rail 21, the conductive slide block 22 and the conductive fixing seat 23 and extend their service life.

[0031] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 The conductive slide 22 is provided with a first charging contact 221, and the conductive fixing seat 23 is provided with a second charging contact 231. Both the first charging contact 221 and the second charging contact extend out of the first groove 11. The first charging contact 221 and the second charging contact 231 contact the positive and negative contacts of the robot, improving contact stability. Optionally, the first charging contact 221 and the second charging contact 231 are hemispherical to reduce damage when they contact the positive and negative contacts of the robot.

[0032] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 The base 1 includes a first surface 12, and a first groove 11 is formed on the first surface 12 of the base 1. The conductive slide 22 includes a slide body 222, and the conductive fixing seat 23 includes a fixing seat body 232. The slide body 222 is disposed in the first groove 11 and is flush with the first surface 12, and the fixing seat body 232 is disposed in the first groove 11 and is flush with the first surface 12. That is, both the slide body 222 and the fixing seat body 232 are flush with the surface of the base 1. The conductive slide 22 extends out of the first groove 11 only through the first charging contact 221, and the conductive fixing seat 23 extends out of the first groove 11 only through the second charging contact 231, which improves the problem of damage to the charging mechanism 100 and the robot caused by the robot colliding with the slide body 222 and the fixing seat body 232. Optionally, the first surface 12 is the top surface of the base 1.

[0033] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3The base 1 includes a second surface 13, which guides the robot from the ground to the first surface 12. For example, one end of the second surface 13 is connected to the first surface 12, and the other end is connected to the bottom surface of the base 1, with the angle between the first surface 12 and the second surface 13 being less than 270 degrees. That is, when the base 1 is placed on the ground, the angle between the second surface 13 and the ground is obtuse. When the robot travels along the second surface 13, it can be guided to the first surface 12, improving the problem of the robot having difficulty moving to the top of the base 1 for charging. Optionally, the angle between the first surface 12 and the second surface 13 is 200 degrees or 210 degrees.

[0034] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The second surface 13 is located on the side of the base 1 opposite to the first direction X. The robot is used to travel along the first direction X to the second surface 13, and then travel through the second surface 13 to the first surface 12. The first direction X is parallel to the first surface 12.

[0035] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The base 1 has a second groove 14 formed on the side wall of the first groove 11, and the second groove 14 extends in a direction parallel to the conductive slide rail 21. The conductive slide 22 is provided with rollers 223, which roll in contact with the inner wall of the second groove 14. The rollers 223 are used to roll along the second groove 14 when the conductive slide 22 slides along the conductive slide rail 21. By providing rollers 223, the sliding stability of the conductive slide 22 relative to the base 1 is enhanced. In this embodiment, the conductive slide rail 21 can be connected to the base 1 at one or both ends, while the middle part is suspended, that is, the part of the conductive slide 22 other than the two ends is supported by the conductive slide 22.

[0036] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The roller 223 rolls into contact with one side wall of the second groove 14, which is parallel to and faces the same direction as the first surface 12, for example, both facing upwards. That is, the inner wall of the second groove 14 applies a force to the roller 223 towards the first surface 12. When the robot contacts the conductive slide 22, the roller 223 can share the pressure of the robot on the conductive slide 22, improving the problem of damaging the conductive slide rail 21; furthermore, even after the robot has contacted the conductive slide 22, the position of the conductive slide 22 can still be adjusted so that the conductive slide 22 correctly contacts the robot's charging contacts, improving the problem of difficulty in sliding due to high friction between the conductive slide 22 and the base 1 when the robot contacts the conductive slide 22.

[0037] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The conductive slide 22 is provided with a wheel frame 224, and a roller 223 is rotatably mounted on the wheel frame 224. Exemplarily, the wheel frame 224 is located on both sides of the slide body 222 along the first direction X, and the wheel frame 224 is provided with a mounting shaft. The roller 223 is rotatably sleeved on the mounting shaft, thereby rotatably mounting the roller 223 to the slide body 222. Both the wheel frame 224 and the roller 223 are located within the second groove 14.

[0038] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 Along a direction perpendicular to the first groove 11, the base 1 has second grooves 14 on each of the opposite side walls of the first groove 11; the conductive slide 22 is provided with at least two rollers 223, and the inner walls of each of the two second grooves 14 are in rolling contact with at least one roller 223. The conductive slide 22 is supported by rollers 223 on both sides, enhancing the sliding stability of the conductive slide 22 relative to the base 1. Optionally, the conductive slide 22 is provided with two rollers 223, and the two rollers 223 respectively make rolling contact with the inner walls of the two second grooves 14.

[0039] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The adjustment assembly 2 also includes a telescopic actuator 24. One end of the telescopic actuator 24 is connected to the conductive slide 22, and the other end is connected to the base 1 or the conductive fixing seat 23. The telescopic actuator 24 is used to drive the conductive slide 22 to slide along the conductive slide rail 21. Through telescopic movement, the telescopic actuator 24 drives the conductive slide 22 away from or towards the conductive fixing seat 23, thereby adjusting the distance between the conductive slide 22 and the conductive fixing seat 23. The telescopic actuator 24 is parallel to the conductive slide rail 21, that is, parallel to the extension direction of the first groove 11. Therefore, the force of the telescopic actuator 24 is parallel to the conductive slide rail 21, and the force of the telescopic actuator 24 is entirely used to drive the conductive slide 22 to slide along the conductive slide rail 21, reducing unnecessary force loss. Furthermore, the telescopic actuator 24 can be fixedly connected to the conductive slide 22, the conductive fixing seat 23, or the base 1 without hinged connection. Optionally, the telescopic actuator 24 can be an electric actuator, a magnetostrictive actuator, etc. Optionally, one end of the telescopic actuator 24 is connected to the conductive slide 22, and the other end of the telescopic actuator 24 is connected to the conductive fixing seat 23.

[0040] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 1 to 3The charging mechanism 100 also includes a limiting component 3, which includes a connecting seat 31 and a rotating rod 32. The connecting seat 31 is disposed on the base 1, and the rotating rod 32 is rotatably disposed on the connecting seat 31. One end of the rotating rod 32 is provided with a locking pin 321. The robot is provided with a locking hole. The rotating rod 32 is used to rotate to a locked position when the robot moves to a preset charging position of the charging mechanism 100, and to insert the locking pin 321 into the locking hole. When the robot moves to the base 1 along the first direction X, the robot squeezes the rotating rod 32, causing the rotating rod 32 to rotate and the locking pin 321 to insert into the robot's locking hole, thereby limiting the position of the robot relative to the base 1 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction X, improving the problem of charging disconnection caused by displacement of the robot relative to the base 1 during the charging process. For example, if the robot moves relative to the base 1 in a direction parallel to the conductive slide rail 21, the positive and negative contacts of the robot will disengage from the conductive slide 22 and the conductive fixing seat 23, resulting in electrical disconnection and charging disconnection. Optionally, the charging mechanism 100 is provided with multiple limiting components 3, and the robot is provided with multiple slots to enhance the limiting effect on the robot; or the multiple limiting components 3 are used to limit multiple robots respectively.

[0041] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 The rotating rod 32 includes a first rod portion 322 and a second rod portion 323, which are located on both sides of the rotation axis of the rotating rod 32. The adjusting component 2 and the limiting component 3 are arranged along the first direction X. The locking pin 321 is located on the side of the second rod portion 323 facing away from the first direction X. The first rod portion 322 extends into the preset charging position in the opposite direction of the first direction X. When the robot moves to the preset charging position, it pushes the first rod portion 322 to rotate toward the first direction X. The first rod portion 322 drives the second rod portion 323 to rotate toward the robot so that the locking pin 321 is inserted into the locking hole. The preset charging position is the position of the robot relative to the base 1 when it is charging. Since the first rod 322 extends into the preset charging position in the opposite direction of the first direction X, when the robot moves to the charging position along the first direction X, it will push the first rod along the first direction X, causing the rotating rod 32 to rotate. Since the first rod 322 and the second rod 323 are located on opposite sides of the rotation axis of the rotating rod 32, the second rod rotates towards the robot, thereby allowing the locking pin 321 to be inserted into the locking hole. Optionally, the first rod 322 and the second rod 323 are set at an angle, and the locking pin 321 is located on the side of the second rod 323 facing the first rod 322. For example, the first rod 322 and the second rod 323 form an obtuse angle, such as 135 degrees, 130 degrees, 140 degrees, etc.

[0042] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The connecting seat 31 is disposed on the conductive slide 22; or, the connecting seat 31 is slidably disposed on the base 1 and connected to the conductive slide 22. Through the connection between the connecting seat 31 and the conductive slide 22, when the conductive slide 22 slides relative to the base 1, it synchronously drives the connecting seat 31 to move, thereby simultaneously adapting to robots of the same model as the conductive slide 22. Optionally, the connecting seat 31 is connected to the wheel frame 224.

[0043] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 The base 1 has a third groove 15; the connecting seat 31 includes a third rod portion 311 and a fourth rod portion 312 connected to each other. The third rod portion 311 is disposed in the third groove 15, one end of the third rod portion 311 is connected to the conductive slide 22, and the other end extends toward the first direction X and is connected to the fourth rod portion 312. By disposing the third rod portion 311 in the third groove 15 and connecting the end of the third rod portion 311 away from the conductive slide 22 to the fourth rod portion 312, the problem of interference between the connecting seat 31 and the robot caused by the connecting seat 31 being located in a preset charging position due to its connection with the conductive slide 22 is improved.

[0044] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 The base 1 has a through hole 16 that connects the second groove 14 and the third groove 15. The third rod 311 is connected to the wheel frame 224 at the through hole 16. The through hole 16 is spaced apart from the first groove 11. The space between the through hole 16 and the first groove 11 ensures that a portion of the second groove 14 wall remains between the through hole 16 and the first groove 11, thus confining the wheel frame 224 and the roller 223 within the second groove 14. This improves the problem that the second groove 14 must extend to the bottom surface of the first surface 12 or the third groove 15 due to the connection between the connecting seat 31 and the conductive slide 22, which could lead to the failure of the second groove 14 in confining the wheel frame 224 and the roller 223.

[0045] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The base 1 is also equipped with a baffle 17, which is located on one side of the limiting component 3 along the first direction X. The baffle 17 is used to abut against the robot when the robot travels along the first direction X to the preset charging position, preventing the robot from continuing to travel, thereby positioning the robot along the first direction X. This improves the problem that the robot's positive and negative charging contacts are not aligned with the conductive slide 22 and conductive fixing seat 23 due to the deviation of the robot's position relative to the adjusting component 2 along the first direction X, which causes the robot to be unable to charge. The fourth rod 312 can abut against the baffle 17 to prevent the robot from breaking the fourth rod 312.

[0046] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide a charging pile (not shown), which includes a charging mechanism 100. The charging pile possesses the structural features and beneficial effects of the charging mechanism 100, which will not be elaborated here.
