Abstract

A grip force sensing safety smart shopping cart consists of a cart body with an accommodating space, which houses a grip force sensing module, a speed control module, a control chip, a power control module, a motor, and a braking device. The control chip sends control signals, and when a command is issued, the device changes the movement state of the grip force sensing safety smart shopping cart as needed, thereby increasing the safety interaction for shoppers.

Claims

1. A grip force sensing safety smart shopping cart, comprising: A vehicle body having an accommodating space; The cart includes: a grip force sensing module mounted on the vehicle body to detect changes in the force applied by the user when gripping the cart and determine whether to drive the grip force sensing safety smart shopping cart; a speed control module mounted on the vehicle body to control the speed of the grip force sensing safety smart shopping cart; a control chip mounted on the vehicle body to receive and analyze data from the grip force sensing module, and the chip has a built-in artificial intelligence algorithm that can determine in real time whether the current state is normal, potentially risky, or dangerous, and then issue corresponding control commands based on the results; and a power control module. The power control module is mounted on the vehicle body and is responsible for receiving control signals from the control chip and converting them into electrical output for the actual drive motor. Through this module, the speed, output torque, or braking actuation of the grip strength sensing safety smart shopping cart can be adjusted to achieve effects such as deceleration, smooth movement, or emergency stop. A motor and braking device are also mounted on the vehicle body and are the actual mechanism for executing movement control, including a drive motor and braking structure. When the power control module issues a command, this device will change the movement state of the grip strength sensing safety smart shopping cart as needed.

2. The grip strength sensing safety smart shopping cart as described in claim 1, further comprising a physiological state sensing module disposed on the cart body near the handle, the physiological state sensing module serving as an auxiliary sensing device.

3. The grip force sensing safety smart shopping cart as described in claim 1 further includes an environmental sensing module, which is usually located at the front of the cart body to detect the surrounding environmental conditions, such as whether there are obstacles in front, the current speed of the shopping cart, and whether the ground is tilted or slippery.

4. The grip strength sensing safety smart shopping cart as described in claim 1, further comprising an alert feedback module installed on the cart body, the alert feedback module being connected to the control chip to provide the user with immediate safety reminders.

5. The grip strength sensing safety smart shopping cart as described in claim 1, further comprising a wireless transmission module installed on the cart body, the wireless transmission module being connected to the control chip to transmit sensing data, operation records or alarm events to a cloud platform, remote server or store management system, and also to receive remote updates or setting adjustments.

6. The grip force sensing safety smart shopping cart as described in claim 1, further comprising a handle disposed above the cart body; a chassis disposed below the cart body; a plurality of wheels disposed below the chassis; and a display module disposed above the cart body adjacent to the handle.

7. The grip strength sensing safety smart shopping cart as described in claim 1, wherein the control chip further includes an AI main control computing chip.
