Fig. 4 is the roll scheme drawing of robot climb steps of the straight-bar type of the embodiment of the invention.
The specific embodiment
Below in conjunction with embodiment and accompanying drawing thereof the present invention is done further explain.
Referring to Fig. 1, Fig. 2, shown in Figure 3, straight-bar type turning robot of the present invention, it comprises: fuselage, switching mechanism, sensing unit, communication control unit and power module.Fuselage is the left-right symmetric structure; The both sides of symmetry are the fuselage both sides; Switching mechanism is arranged on the fuselage both sides, and sensing unit, communication control unit and power module are arranged in the fuselage, and sensing unit connects communication control unit; The output of communication control unit is connected to switching mechanism, and power module is to sensing unit, communication control unit and switching mechanism power supply.Fuselage is except left-right symmetric; About shape need: be generally irregular polygon, such as shown in Figure 2, also can be for trapezoidal; But generally do not advise adopting triangle or quadrangle; Because this is unfavorable for that robot advances, for example if triangle then is difficult to keep straight line moving preferably.
Described fuselage comprises frame 1 and cover 2, and frame 1 and cover 2 are fixed as one through screw.There is the fixed mount that two structures are identical, be symmetrically distributed frame 1 inside, and is used for fixing the mechanism of rolling.
Described switching mechanism is divided into left-right symmetric, two parts that structure is identical, respectively by two identical driving reducing motor individual drive; Every part comprises: drive reducing motor 3, first spur bevel gear 4, small washer 5, large washer 6, second spur bevel gear 7, transmission shaft 8, straight-bar pivot arm 9.Drive reducing motor 3 and be fixed on the frame 1 in-to-in fixed mount its output shaft captive joint first spur bevel gear 4 through screw.Transmission shaft 8 is a stepped shaft, and an end has internal thread hole, and an end has the shaft shoulder.Transmission shaft 8 has the shaft shoulder one end and is connected with fixed mount, second spur bevel gear 7, and second spur bevel gear 7 is captiveed joint with it.Transmission shaft 8 other ends are connected with large washer 6, straight-bar pivot arm 9, small washer 5 respectively.Straight-bar pivot arm 9, small washer 5 and transmission shaft 8 are captiveed joint through tightening screw.When described driving reducing motor 3 was switched on work, through the engagement driving transmission shaft 8 of first spur bevel gear 4 and second spur bevel gear 7, transmission shaft 8 drove 9 rotations of straight-bar pivot arms, and straight-bar pivot arm 9 can 360 ° of rotations.
Among the present invention, drive reducing motor and be used to drive the transmission shaft rotation, according to fuselage shape size; Can select suitable transmission gear adjustment direction; As adopting two spur bevel gear transmissions among the above-mentioned embodiment, be in order to realize the miniaturization as far as possible of this robot, if adopt motor output shaft directly to drive the straight-bar pivot arm; Then cause robot left and right sides width to become big easily, so do not advise that motor output shaft directly drives.
In the foregoing description, robot be up-narrow and down-wide in shape, be at imitative a kind of sea hydrobiont in fact: turbot; Also can lift our approaching biology of a comparison---frog; The straight-bar type pivot arm generally is close to the robot both sides, and this shape helps the straightaway of robot, and the length of straight-bar pivot arm is half the greater than fuselage both sides length; Guarantee in rotary course, not receive fuselage to influence all the time and can get final product by kiss the earth, long length helps better crossing over blockage.
Described sensing unit is used for the collecting ring environment information, and sends this environmental information and give communication control unit, comprises ultrasonic ranging sensor and Temperature Humidity Sensor.The ultrasonic ranging sensor is used to measure obstacle, and Temperature Humidity Sensor is used for collecting the humiture information of environment of living in.Communication control unit is used to receive from the environmental information of sensor unit transmission and the control command of upper computer transmission, control robot action; Power module is that each unit of robot provides needed electric energy.
Referring to shown in Figure 4, the roll scheme drawing of robot climb steps of straight-bar type.
Before the robot setting in motion, two straight-bar pivot arms are in and close up state.After robot receives orders, the sideway swivel backward simultaneously of two straight-bar pivot arms.The straight-bar pivot arm contacts the continued rotation with ground, lift at the robot rear portion, and the front portion contacts with ground.Along with the robot center of gravity constantly moves forward, under the effect of gravity, robot is realized rolling.Anterior the continuation of straight-bar pivot arm is rotated with after the step upper edge contact at robot, lean forward until the robot by gravity, thus successful climb steps, wherein:
1) in the rotary course; Fuselage can occur and vertically stand in ground situation, but because straight-bar type pivot arm length is longer than fuselage, the straight-bar pivot arm can touch ground; Situation about can't roll can not appear; Motor torque is enough to realize that robot rolls, and can realize the rotating of straight-bar type pivot arm, adjustment robot location and posture through controlling motor.
2) like Fig. 4, described robot front portion is lifted and is touched the step upper edge, and the straight line of seeing among the figure comprises thick line and fine rule, representative be that two straight-bar type pivot arms move together, two straight-bar type pivot arms rotate simultaneously.
3) three figure of state to the of second figure; Be to rely on the rotation of straight-bar pivot arm, realize what robot constantly rolled forward, the 3rd illustrated is the anterior contact of robot step forward position among Fig. 4; Robot rear portion contact also possibly appear; In the present invention, the moment of torsion of motor is enough to support that robot lifts fuselage, realizes rolling.
