Background
The wheel robot has the principle that a motor, a servo control device and an attitude sensor are used for coordinating and controlling the balance of a vehicle body. A gyroscope and an acceleration sensor are designed in the robot, the change of the posture of the robot is detected, and the actions of starting, accelerating, decelerating, stopping and the like of the robot can be realized by changing the gravity center position of the robot. Generally, when a wheeled robot works in a power-on mode, gravity sensing monitors the change of the gravity center of the robot in real time, and the robot is kept balanced through servo control. However, when the robot outage, it can't continue to keep balance because of the focus loses the monitoring, and the robot loses the upright state, is not convenient for park and accomodates, also influences experience. In addition, when the robot is only required to be balanced and static, the robot can frequently accelerate and retreat due to the inexhaustible level of the ground and is always in a state of balancing, and a large amount of electric energy is consumed at the moment.
Therefore, the chinese patent discloses a wheel-type self-balancing device [ No. CN206456475U ], which comprises a frame, a supporting device, wheels and a power device for driving the wheels to rotate, wherein the power device, the wheels and the supporting device are arranged on the frame, and the supporting device comprises a supporting rod and a driving device for driving the supporting rod; when the wheel type self-balancing device is in a non-running state, the supporting rod is in contact with the ground, and the supporting rod and the wheels form at least three-point support together so as to keep the wheel type self-balancing device balanced; in the operating state, the support bar is away from the ground.
Although the wheel type self-balancing device can keep the robot balanced, the following problems still exist: because the swinging direction of the supporting rod is vertical to the moving direction, the robot is not easy to rise stably after being toppled according to the lever principle; the supporting rod only plays a supporting role, and when the supporting rod extends out or swings to a vertical state, the walking of the robot is hindered.
