Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power supply structure technology, and in particular to a power supply structure for a robot. Background Technology
[0002] Industrial AI-embedded robots require a chassis to provide stable power to various electrical components in the upper body, such as the main control unit, motion control unit, grippers, and sensors. The upper body also needs to be compatible with multiple voltage specifications, including 24V and 48V. As the complexity of robot movements increases, the number of integrated functional components in the upper body is also growing, leading to continuously rising demands for space utilization, power supply stability, and ease of maintenance. Current technologies generally adopt a "chassis battery direct power supply + upper body voltage conversion" model. This means the chassis only outputs a single high voltage specification, such as 48V, while the upper body needs to be equipped with multiple DC-DC voltage conversion boards to convert the high voltage to the required voltages (48V, 24V, 12V, etc.) for each electrical component, before distributing them to the corresponding components via wiring harnesses.
[0003] Traditional robot power supply structures have limited layout space on the robot's upper body. The addition of multiple conversion boards further compresses this space, directly limiting the possibility of functional expansion. The conversion boards are intertwined with various wiring harnesses, requiring the disassembly of multiple related components during troubleshooting, which makes problem localization time-consuming and labor-intensive, and significantly increases the difficulty of maintenance. At the same time, in the enclosed space of the upper body, the heat generated by the conversion boards during operation is difficult to dissipate quickly, which can easily lead to heat accumulation and cause overheating failures of components, affecting the power supply system and the overall operational stability of the robot. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a power supply structure for a robot that can solve the problem that the limited layout space of the robot's upper body in traditional power supply structures is further compressed by the additional multiple conversion boards, directly limiting the possibility of functional expansion. The conversion boards are intertwined with various wire harnesses, and multiple related components need to be disassembled during fault diagnosis, which makes problem localization time-consuming and laborious, and greatly increases the difficulty of maintenance. At the same time, in the closed space environment of the upper body, the heat generated by the conversion boards during operation is difficult to dissipate quickly, which can easily cause heat accumulation and lead to overheating failure of components, affecting the power supply system and the overall operational stability of the robot.

[0016] 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.
[0017] Example 1: Please see Figure 1 - Figure 8 This embodiment provides a space-saving and easy-to-maintain power supply structure for embodied robots. The specific concept is as follows: A power supply structure for an embodied robot includes a robot body 1, which integrates an upper body main controller, motion controller, gripper, sensors, and module motors. The power supply structure for the embodied robot also includes a chassis 2 and a drive unit.
[0018] The robot body 1 has a chassis 2 mounted on its outer bottom. The chassis 2 integrates a power supply on its inner side. The power supply output voltage includes 24V and 48V, which can accurately adapt to the diverse power supply needs of the robot body 1's main control, motion control, gripper, sensors, and module motors. This design eliminates the original conversion board and redundant wiring harness of the robot body 1, effectively freeing up internal installation space and providing support for the expansion of more functional components, thus greatly improving the robot's functional expandability and integration.
[0019] Meanwhile, a baffle 201 is movably installed on the outer side of the opening at one end of the chassis 2. An electrical component 101 is installed on one side of the baffle 201 and a drive component is provided. The drive component, as the power core, can drive the baffle 201 to rotate. The baffle 201 can not only protect the power supply and electrical component 101 inside the chassis 2, preventing dust and foreign objects from entering and affecting the operation of the equipment, but also achieve automatic opening and closing through the drive component, making it convenient for operators to inspect and maintain the internal components and improving the ease of equipment maintenance.
[0020] As examples, in this embodiment, the driving element includes: mounting plate 202 and limiting groove 203.
[0021] The chassis 2 has a mounting plate 202 fixedly connected to the inner side of its end, which provides stable support for each moving part. The inner side of one end of the mounting plate 202 has a limiting groove 203 composed of an arc-shaped structure and a strip-shaped structure. The arc-shaped section is adapted to the rotation trajectory of the rotating arm, while the strip-shaped section limits its linear movement range. The dual structure design can accurately constrain the movement path of the parts and avoid excessive rotation or deviation.
[0022] Meanwhile, a second rotating arm 205 is rotatably connected to the inner side of one end of the mounting plate 202, a first rotating arm 204 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the end of the second rotating arm 205, and a third rotating arm 206 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the end of the first rotating arm 204 away from the second rotating arm 205. The third rotating arm 206 is in contact with one side of the mounting plate 202, and its outer side is fixedly connected to one side of the baffle 201. The linkage design of multiple rotating arms can realize the multi-angle opening and closing of the baffle 201 to adapt to the space requirements of different maintenance operations. A first limiting head 207 and a second limiting head 208 are fixedly connected to one side of the third rotating arm 206, both of which are set inside the limiting groove 203. When the rotating arm moves, it slides along the groove, which can prevent the components from colliding and interfering, and ensure the precise control of the movement trajectory.
[0023] In addition, a motor 209 is installed on one side of the mounting plate 202. The motor 209 is built into the inner side of the chassis 2, and its main shaft passes through the outer end of the mounting plate 202 and is fixedly connected to the inner end of the second rotating arm 205, providing a stable power source for the linkage of multiple rotating arms. The automatic opening and closing of the baffle 201 can be realized by driving the motor 209, improving the convenience of operation. A connecting rod 210 is rotatably connected to one side of the first rotating arm 204. The outer end of the connecting rod 210 away from the first rotating arm 204 is rotatably connected to one side of the third rotating arm 206 on the opposite side. The connecting rod 210 enhances the synchronization of the movement of the two rotating arms, avoids tilting and jamming when the baffle 201 opens and closes, and further ensures the stability and reliability of the movement of the baffle 201.
[0024] Example 2: Please see Figure 1 - Figure 8 This embodiment provides a space-saving and easy-to-maintain power supply structure for embodied robots. The specific concept is as follows: A power supply structure for an embodied robot includes a robot body 1, and the power supply structure for the embodied robot also includes a mesh cover 3 and a heat sink.
[0025] The mesh cover 3 is fixedly connected to the outer sides of both ends of the chassis 2, and the heat dissipation component is located on one side of the mesh cover 3.
[0026] As examples, in this embodiment, the heat sink includes a heat sink 301 and a sliding groove 302.
[0027] Among them, the mesh cover 3 is fixedly connected to the outside of the openings at both ends of the chassis 2. A cooling fan 301 is evenly installed on one side of the mesh cover 3. The cooling fan 301 can accelerate the air circulation inside the chassis 2 and dissipate the heat generated by the power supply and electrical components 101 in time, so as to avoid high temperature affecting the stability of equipment operation. The mesh cover 3 can prevent foreign objects from entering the chassis 2, while not obstructing the airflow and ensuring the heat dissipation effect.
[0028] Meanwhile, sliding grooves 302 are provided on the inner sides of both ends of the chassis 2. A cleaning plate 303 is slidably connected to the inner side of the sliding groove 302. A handle 304 is fixedly connected to one side of the cleaning plate 303. The operator can conveniently push and pull the cleaning plate 303 through the handle 304 to improve the convenience of cleaning operation. Multiple rubber cleaning strips 305 are fixedly connected to the other side of the cleaning plate 303. The rubber cleaning strips 305 have good elasticity and wear resistance. When the cleaning plate 303 slides, it can fit against the inner wall of the chassis 2 or the surface of the mesh cover 3 to effectively remove dust and debris and keep the internal environment clean.
[0029] In addition, rollers 306 are rotatably connected to the inner sides of both ends of the cleaning plate 303. The cleaning plate 303 is slidably connected to the inner side of the sliding groove 302 through the rollers 306. The rollers 306 convert the sliding friction between the cleaning plate 303 and the sliding groove 302 into rolling friction, which greatly reduces the moving resistance, makes the cleaning plate 303 slide more smoothly, and at the same time reduces component wear and extends service life.
[0030] Working principle: When a user needs to perform quick maintenance on the device, the user can start the motor 209, causing the second rotating arm 205 to rotate. Simultaneously, the rotation of the second rotating arm 205 pushes the first rotating arm 204 to move. The movement of the first rotating arm 204, in turn, pushes the third rotating arm 206 to move. The movement of the third rotating arm 206, in turn, causes the first limiting head 207 and the second limiting head 208 on one side to move inside the limiting groove 203, until the first limiting head 207 moves to the inner side of the strip-shaped end of the limiting groove 203. At this point, the baffle 201 pushes the electrical component 101 out from the inside of the chassis 2. The gap between the baffle 201 and the opening of the chassis 2 is increased to improve the heat dissipation of the electrical component 101. At this time, the second rotating arm 205 can continue to push the first rotating arm 204 to move. The second rotating arm 205 pushes one end of the third rotating arm 206 through the first rotating arm 204, so that the third rotating arm 206 rotates around the center of the first limiting head 207. At the same time, the second limiting head 208 is screwed into the inner side of the arc-shaped structure of the limiting groove 203. At this time, the third rotating arm 206 drives the baffle 201 to rotate to a horizontal state, which facilitates the disassembly of the electrical component 101 and the maintenance of the inner side of the chassis 2.
[0031] This embodied robot power supply structure combines efficient heat dissipation with convenient operation and maintenance, significantly improving its practicality. Motor 209 drives the second rotating arm 205, the first rotating arm 204, and the third rotating arm 206 in conjunction with the first limiting head 207 and the second limiting head 208 moving within the strip structure of the limiting groove 203. This causes the baffle 201 to push out the electrical component 101, increasing the heat dissipation gap and enhancing the heat dissipation effect of the electrical component 101. Continuing to drive the components in tandem allows the third rotating arm 206 to rotate the baffle 201 to a horizontal position, fully exposing the electrical component 101 and the inner side of the chassis 2. Maintenance operations can be performed without complex disassembly, greatly reducing the difficulty of disassembly and maintenance, and meeting the usage requirements of efficient heat dissipation and convenient operation and maintenance for embodied robot power supply systems.
[0032] The cooling fan 301 on one side of the mesh cover 3 can dissipate heat to the inside of the chassis 2. The mesh covers 3, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides, ensure air convection. At this time, the user can move the cleaning plate 303 by the handle 304, and then clean one side of the mesh cover 3 by the cleaning strip 305 on one side of the cleaning plate 303. The roller 306 can reduce the friction between the cleaning plate 303 and the inside of the sliding groove 302.
[0033] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
