Embodiment
To shown in Figure 2, a kind of virtual wall system 10 that is applied to self-walking apparatus that the present invention's first preferred embodiment is provided mainly is made up of a self-walking apparatus 11 and a virtual wall generation device 21 as Fig. 1, wherein:
This self-walking apparatus 11, having a steering gear 12 can be towards at least one directional steering, and have a control device 14 and be connected in this steering gear 12, in order to controlling turning to of this steering gear 12, and have at least one signal projector 16, be arranged at a side of this self-walking apparatus 11, it is that a side to this self-walking apparatus 11 transmits, be to be example in the present embodiment, and have a sound wave receiver 18, in order to receive the sound wave signal with the light signal.
This virtual wall generation device 21, place on the plane that this self-walking apparatus 11 advances, ground for example, this virtual wall generation device 21 has at least one groove 22, the opening of this groove 22 is outwards gradually to open, this virtual wall generation device 21 has a signal receiver 24, be located in this groove 22, in order to reception inject in this groove 22 signal, this signal is sent by this signal projector 16, and in addition, this virtual wall generation device 21 has a sound wave transmitter 26, be located in this groove 22, in order to the opening direction of this groove 22 emission sound wave signal, be to be example in the present embodiment, and have a signal controller 28 with the ultrasonic, in order to the signal of judging that this signal receiver 24 is received, and control the emission of this sound wave transmitter 26; This virtual wall generation device 21 has a power supply module 29, and battery for example is in order to provide power supply.
As shown in Figure 2 to Figure 3, this self-walking apparatus 11 is when advancing, when received this signal of this signal receiver 24, this signal controller 28 is promptly controlled this sound wave transmitter 26 and is sent sound wave, this sound wave receiver 18 promptly can receive this sound wave signal, and this control device 14 is promptly controlled this steering gear 12 and turned to.
Wherein, as shown in Figure 3, by opening both sides angle by this groove 22, can limit the angle of these signal receiver 24 received signals, also can limit the direction of this sound wave transmitter 26 sound wave that sends, the angle when guaranteeing this self-walking apparatus 11 through these virtual wall generation device 21 next doors is in predetermined angular; As shown in Figure 4, if during these self-walking apparatus 11 these virtual wall generation device 21 next doors of process, the angle that angle contains greater than the opening of this groove 22, then signal can't be emitted in this groove 22, this virtual wall generation device 21 promptly can not receive the signal of this self-walking apparatus 11, promptly can not send the sound wave signal that this self-walking apparatus 11 is turned to this moment.
As shown in Figure 5, this virtual wall generation device 21 of the present invention also can have two grooves 22, and respectively towards both sides; Again, as shown in Figure 6, two grooves 22 that this virtual wall generation device 21 is had can also opening direction 90 modes of spending that fold be provided with; Moreover, as shown in Figure 7, also can put a virtual wall generation device 21 respectively, and form the Virtual Space that four road virtual wall are enclosed in four corners, movable and can not run out of this Virtual Space in this zone to limit this self-walking apparatus 11.
As from the foregoing, the present invention mainly is the signal (light signal) by emission predetermined direction on this self-walking apparatus 11, again by after these virtual wall generation device 21 received signals, sending the sound wave signal touches this self-walking apparatus 11 and turns to, they are not only different with the prior art of preceding taking off, and because this virtual wall generation device 21 is after receiving signal, just send the sound wave signal, therefore be not to be in the state that constantly transmits, but just emission whenever necessary, this can significantly save power supply, than the more economic power saving of prior art.
