Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mechanical dog technology, and in particular relates to a carrying module for a mechanical dog. Background Technology

[0002] With the maturation of quadruped robot (or "mechanical dog") technology, its applications are rapidly moving from laboratory demonstrations to diverse real-world scenarios, such as security patrols, logistics delivery, emergency rescue, equipment testing, and military reconnaissance. In these scenarios, the mechanical dog is no longer merely a mobile platform, but needs to serve as a mobile operational platform, carrying and operating various specialized equipment (such as pan-tilt cameras, robotic arms, detection sensors, logistics containers, and firefighting equipment) to complete specific tasks. Therefore, how to enable the mechanical dog to effectively carry these task-oriented devices has become a key aspect in realizing its engineering and practical application.

[0003] Currently, the mainstream methods for adding load-bearing capabilities to robotic dogs have the following significant shortcomings, failing to meet the application requirements of high efficiency, flexibility, and reliability: Temporary fixing methods (such as binding, pasting, simple clamps): Disadvantages: Low installation accuracy and poor stability; it is easy to loosen or shift during dynamic running; each disassembly and assembly is cumbersome and may damage the robot body or equipment.

[0004] Rigidly welded or bolted special brackets: Disadvantages: One type of bracket can only be used with one specific device, resulting in extremely poor versatility. When the task changes, the entire bracket needs to be replaced or undergo complex modifications, leading to insufficient flexibility and high usage and maintenance costs.

[0005] In summary, existing technical solutions for implementing the payload function of robotic dogs generally suffer from drawbacks such as unreliable mechanical connections and inflexible task switching. There is a lack of a standardized, modular intermediate connection device between the robotic dog platform and the task equipment. This severely restricts the working efficiency, task adaptability, and overall system scalability of the robotic dog. Utility Model Content
