Referring to fig. 1, a sterilization robot includes: the device comprises a shell 100, a disinfection component, a steering mechanism and a detection mechanism; the sterilizing assembly comprises a sterilizing lamp tube 200, the sterilizing lamp tube 200 is movably arranged in the shell 100, and part of the sterilizing lamp tube 200 extends to the outside of the shell 100; the steering mechanism is arranged in the shell 100 and can drive the disinfection lamp tube 200 to turn over relative to the shell 100; the detection mechanism includes a detection piece 400 provided on the housing 100, the detection piece 400 can detect the front side of the housing 100, and the steering mechanism is electrically connected to the detection mechanism. After the detection mechanism detects that a gap dead angle with a shielding structure at the upper part exists in a scene, the steering mechanism is driven to operate. After the steering mechanism is operated, the sterilizing lamp tube 200 is driven to turn over, so that the sterilizing lamp tube 200 can be close to or extend into the gap dead angle, and the gap dead angle is sterilized. Through the combined operation of the detection mechanism and the steering mechanism, the disinfection lamp tube 200 can automatically adjust the illumination angle and the illumination range thereof, and further adapt to various gap dead angles, so that the disinfection effect of the disinfection robot is more sufficient and complete.

Specifically, the sterilizing lamp 200 can emit deep ultraviolet light.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 2, the surface of the housing 100 is provided with an opening 150, and the sterilizing lamp 200 passes through the opening 150 and extends to the outside of the housing 100. The openings 150 allow the sterilizing lamp 200 to smoothly pass through the housing 100 and extend to the outside of the housing 100, thereby preventing relative interference between the housing 100 and the sterilizing lamp 200.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 2, the opening 150 extends from the top wall of the housing 100 to the side wall of the housing 100, and the steering mechanism can drive the sterilizing lamp 200 to reciprocate along the opening 150. When the turning mechanism turns the disinfection lamp 200, the disinfection lamp 200 will rotate from the top wall of the housing 100 to the side wall of the housing 100. The opening can guide and limit the movement of the disinfection lamp tube 200, thereby ensuring that the disinfection lamp tube 200 cannot be pulled out of the housing 100 due to excessive movement.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 1, both ends of the mouthpiece 150 are provided with flexible bearers. The flexible support portion can reduce the impact of the lamp tube when colliding with both ends of the opening 150, thereby reducing the loss between the sterilizing lamp tube 200 and the housing 100.

Specifically, the support part can be a support platform made of soft rubber. Of course, the supporting portion may also be composed of other components, and the specific embodiment may be adjusted accordingly according to the actual situation, which is not limited herein.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 1, the steering mechanism includes a steering motor 300 disposed on the housing 100, and the steering motor 300 is connected to one end of the sterilizing lamp 200 and can turn the sterilizing lamp 200. After the steering motor 300 is started, the sterilizing lamp tube 200 can be directly and effectively driven to turn over along one end of the steering motor, so that the distances and angles between the sterilizing lamp tube 200 and various gap dead corners can be conveniently adjusted, and the sterilizing lamp tube 200 can conveniently illuminate, sterilize and sterilize the gap dead corners.

Specifically. The steering motor 300 is a servo motor.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 3, the steering motor 300 is connected to a connecting shaft 350, and a connecting rod 500 is disposed between the connecting shaft 350 and the sterilizing lamp 200, and the connecting rod 500 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the connecting shaft 350. The connecting rod 500 can adjust the angle between the sterilizing lamp 200 and the connecting shaft 350, so that the sterilizing lamp 200 and the housing 100 can be adjusted at a larger angle, and the device is suitable for different scenes.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 4, the connection rod 500 is hinged to one end of the sterilizing lamp 200. The user can rotate the sterilizing lamp 200 relative to the connecting rod 500, so as to adjust the pointing angle of the sterilizing lamp 200, thereby being suitable for different use scenes.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 4, a damping rotation mechanism is disposed between the connection rod 500 and the sterilizing lamp 200, and the connection rod 500 and the sterilizing lamp 200 are connected by the damping rotation mechanism. The damping rotation mechanism enables sufficient holding force to be provided between the sterilizing lamp tube 200 and the connecting rod 500, so that the connecting rod 500 and the sterilizing lamp tube 200 are prevented from rotating automatically, and the sterilizing lamp tube 200 is more stable and reliable in the using process.

Specifically, the damping rotation mechanism includes a buffer oil core disposed between the connection rod 500 and the sterilizing lamp 200. Of course, the damping rotation mechanism may also be composed of other components, and the specific implementation manner may be adjusted accordingly according to the actual situation, which is not limited herein.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 1, the sensing member 400 includes a plurality of distance sensors, and the upper and lower portions of the housing 100 are provided with the distance sensors. When the distances sensed by the upper distance sensors and the lower distance sensors are inconsistent, the detection mechanism can judge that a gap dead angle with the upper part blocked in the scene occurs, so that the disinfection lamp tube 200 is driven by the steering mechanism to adjust the angle of the disinfection lamp tube, and illumination disinfection of the gap dead angle is realized.

It is also envisioned that a plurality of distance sensors may be provided on both left and right sides of the housing 100 to detect the vertical seam. The specific implementation manner may be adjusted according to the actual situation, and is not limited herein.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 2, the lower portion of the housing 100 is provided with a drive wheel 110. The driving wheel 110 can drive the housing 100 to move, so that the disinfection lamp 200 can extend into the gap dead space, thereby ensuring disinfection of the inside of the gap dead space.

The technical features of the embodiments described above may be arbitrarily combined, and for the sake of brevity, all possible combinations of the technical features in the embodiments described above are not described, but should be considered as being within the scope of the present specification as long as there is no contradiction between the combinations of the technical features.

The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge of those skilled in the art without departing from the gist of the present invention.
