Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the present application is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
Fig. 1 is an application scenario diagram of a control method of a robot in an embodiment, and fig. 2 is an exemplary flowchart of the control method of the robot in the embodiment. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the control method of the robot includes the steps of:
in step S12, the robot is controlled to move into the elevator car when the elevator door is opened.
Specifically, a control device (not shown) of the robot 20 may be provided, and the control device may be integrated inside the robot 20 or may be provided outside the robot 20. The control device controls the movement of the robot 20 by being connected to the robot 20, and performs corresponding actions and the like. A detection device (not shown) may be provided on robot 20 to detect whether elevator door 12 is opened, for example, the detection device may include an image acquisition device that acquires an image of the surroundings of robot 20 and transmits the image to the control device, and the control device determines whether elevator door 12 is opened according to the image. When the control device determines that the elevator door 12 is opened, the control robot 20 is controlled to move into the elevator car 10.
And step S14, when the robot enters the elevator car, controlling the robot to stop in a preset stopping area in the elevator car.
In particular, a landing zone 11 dedicated to the robot 20, i.e. a preset landing zone 11, can be provided in the elevator car 10, the landing zone 11 being used for the zone in which the robot 20 waits in the car 10 while riding the elevator in the performance task. In the elevator car 10, a warning sign such as "robot landing zone" may be provided in the landing zone 11 to avoid the zone being occupied by other people. The parking area 11 is located on the central axis L of the bottom of the elevator car 10, which passes through the center of the bottom of the elevator doors 12, and is within a preset distance range from the elevator doors 12. The preset distance range may be set based on a situation where a person cannot be accommodated to stand at the front side of the robot 20 and does not affect the closing of the elevator doors 12 and the boarding personnel to enter or exit from both sides of the robot 20. The control device controls the robot 20 to stop in the stopping area 11 in the elevator car 10 when the robot 20 enters the elevator car 10. Since the robot 20 stops in the elevator car 10 in the preset stop area 11, when the robot 20 reaches the target floor, no person affects the exit of the robot 20, and when someone needs to enter or exit before reaching the target floor, the person can enter or exit from two sides of the robot 20, so that the person does not affect the taking of the elevator by other people.
And step S16, when the robot reaches the target floor, controlling the robot to leave the stopping area and exit the elevator.
Specifically, the elevator state such as the arrival floor of the elevator can be acquired by the detection device, and the result is transmitted to the control device. The detection device may be an image acquisition device, or may be a sensing unit configured to acquire information of a floor where the elevator car 10 is located (see, specifically, chinese patent publication No. CN 110759192A). The control device determines whether the elevator car 10 reaches the target floor based on the output result of the detection device. The target floor is the floor that robot 20 needs to reach to perform the navigation task. When the control device determines that the elevator car 10 reaches the target floor, the control device controls the robot 20 to leave the stopping area 11 and exit the elevator.
In the control method of the robot, when the robot 20 enters the elevator car 10, the robot 20 is controlled to stop in the preset stopping area 11 in the elevator car 10, and because the stopping area 11 is positioned on the central axis L of the bottom of the elevator car 10 and the distance d between the stopping area 11 and the elevator door 12 is within the preset distance range, no person affects the robot 20 to get out of the elevator when the robot 20 reaches the target floor; and when someone needs to enter or exit before reaching the target floor and the robot 20 is abnormal in the parking area 11, the robot 20 does not obstruct the traveling path of other people, and other people can enter or exit from both sides of the robot 20, so that the other people cannot be influenced to take the elevator.
In one embodiment, the predetermined distance may range from 0.01 meters to 0.9 meters, thereby not accommodating a person standing right in front of robot 20 and not affecting the closing of elevator doors 12 and the boarding or disembarking of persons from both sides of robot 20. Preferably, the preset distance range may be determined with reference to a person's shoe size, and particularly, the preset distance range may be 0.1 to 0.31 meters. By way of example only, the distance d between the parking area 11 and the elevator doors 12 may be 0.2 m, 0.25 m or 0.3 m, so that it is not possible to accommodate a person standing directly in front of the robot 20 and without affecting the closing of the elevator doors 12 and without affecting the entry or exit of persons from both sides of the robot 20.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 3, step S14 may include:
step S141, it is determined whether the parking area is occupied by the obstacle and whether the path along which the robot moves to the parking area is blocked.
Specifically, the control device may determine whether the parking area 11 is occupied by an obstacle such as a person, an object, or another robot, and whether a path along which the robot 20 moves to the parking area 11 is blocked, according to the image around the robot 20 acquired by the image acquiring device. The control device executes step S142 if it determines that either one of the parking area 11 is occupied by an obstacle and the path along which the robot 20 moves to the parking area 11 is blocked occurs, or executes step S143 if neither occurs.
And step S142, controlling the robot to send an avoidance prompt.
Specifically, a prompting device (not shown) such as a voice device and a light flashing device may be disposed on the robot 20, the prompting device is connected to the control device, and the control device controls the prompting device to perform light flashing prompting or voice prompting when determining that any one of the parking area 11 occupied by the obstacle and the path of the robot 20 moving to the parking area 11 is blocked occurs, so as to prompt people around to dodge, move the carried object in the parking area 11, and the like.
And step S143, controlling the robot to move to the parking area and park in the parking area.
Specifically, the bottom of the robot 20 may be provided with a moving device 21 such as a roller, the moving device 21 is connected to the control device, and the control device controls the moving device 21 to move when it is determined that neither the stopping area 11 is occupied by an obstacle nor the path of the robot 20 moving to the stopping area 11 is blocked, so as to control the robot 20 to move to the stopping area 11 in the elevator car 10 and stop at the stopping area 11.
In this embodiment, the avoidance prompt is sent by controlling the robot 20 to prompt surrounding people to avoid, so as to increase human-computer interaction, thereby improving the working efficiency of the robot 20.
In an embodiment, as also shown in fig. 3, the control method of the robot further includes:
and step S151, judging whether any one of the parking area still occupied by the barrier and the path of the robot to the parking area still blocked still exists after the number of times of sending the avoidance prompt by the robot exceeds a first preset value.
Specifically, the first preset value can be set according to actual requirements. When the control device judges that the parking area 11 is occupied by the obstacle and the path of the robot 20 to the parking area 11 is blocked, avoidance prompts sent by the control prompt device can be unified into one type; different prompts may also be issued separately. In this embodiment, the control device determines whether the number of times of sending the avoidance prompt by the prompt device exceeds a first preset value. If the control device determines that any one of the parking area 11 still occupied by the obstacle and the path from the robot 20 to the parking area 11 still blocked still exists after the number of times of the avoidance prompt sent by the robot 20 exceeds the first preset value, executing steps S152 and S153; if the control device determines that the number of times of the avoidance prompt sent by the robot 20 exceeds the first preset value, the parking area 11 is not occupied by the obstacle and the path from the robot 20 to the parking area 11 is not blocked, step S143 is executed. Of course, when the number of times that the robot 20 issues the avoidance prompt is smaller than the first preset value, the control device has already determined that the parking area 11 is not occupied by the obstacle and the path of the robot 20 to the parking area 11 is not blocked, step S143 may also be executed.
In other embodiments, the control device may be further configured to determine whether the time for the robot 20 to issue the avoidance prompt exceeds a first preset value, and after determining that the time for the robot 20 to issue the avoidance prompt exceeds the first preset value, if any one of the parking area 11 still occupied by the obstacle and the path from the robot 20 to the parking area 11 still blocked still exists, execute steps S152 and S153; if the control device determines that the time for the robot 20 to issue the avoidance prompt exceeds the first preset value, the parking area 11 is not occupied by the obstacle and the path from the robot 20 to the parking area 11 is not blocked, step S143 is executed.
Step S152, the control robot releases the elevator and returns to the outside of the elevator car.
Specifically, after the control device controls the robot 20 to enter the elevator car 10, and determines that the stopping area 11 is occupied by the obstacle and the number of times of sending the avoidance prompt exceeds the first preset value, the control device controls the moving device 21 at the bottom of the robot 20 to move, so that the robot 20 returns to the outside of the elevator car 10, and the elevator is released. If the robot 20 has not entered the interior of the elevator car 10 and the control device determines that the path to the stopping area 11 of the robot 20 is blocked, the control device controls the robot 20 to wait in place or controls the moving device 21 to move so that the robot 20 waits at a designated position outside the elevator and releases the elevator. Wherein the elevator is released, in particular the robot 20 stops executing the command to call the elevator.
And step S153, controlling the robot to call the elevator again after the elevator car leaves the current floor.
Specifically, the control device can determine whether the elevator car 10 leaves the current floor by the information output from the detection device. In one embodiment, the robot 20 may be provided with a mechanical arm 22, the mechanical arm 22 may be connected to a control device, and the control device may control the mechanical arm 22 of the robot 20 to press a button for calling the elevator after the elevator car 10 leaves the current floor, so as to control the robot 20 to call the elevator again. In other embodiments, the robot 20 may effect calls to elevators by interacting with a car floor control panel (see, in particular, chinese patent publication CN 110759192A). The control device may return to step S12 after calling the elevator again to control the robot to move into the elevator car when the elevator doors are opened.
In this embodiment, if the number of times that the robot 20 sends the avoidance prompt exceeds the first preset value, any one of the stopping area 11 still occupied by the obstacle and the path from the robot 20 to the stopping area 11 still blocked still exists, the robot 20 is controlled to release the elevator and return to the outside of the elevator car 10; and, after the elevator car 10 leaves the current floor, the control robot 20 calls the elevator again so that the elevator is prevented from being occupied and not released all the time, thereby preventing other people from being affected in taking the elevator.
In an embodiment, as also shown in fig. 3, the control method of the robot further includes:
and step S154, judging whether the number of times that the robot calls the elevator again exceeds a second preset value.
Specifically, the control device may use the number of times the robot arm 22 of the robot 20 re-presses the elevator button or the number of times the robot 20 re-interacts with the car floor control panel as the number of times the robot 20 re-calls the elevator. The second preset value can be set according to actual requirements. The control device judges whether the number of times that the robot 20 calls the elevator again exceeds a second preset value, if so, the step S155 is executed; if not, step S155 is not executed. In other embodiments, it may also be configured to determine whether the waiting time of robot 20 at the elevator hall exceeds the second preset value, and if so, execute step S155, so as to avoid that robot 20 cannot execute the task for a long time.
And step S155, controlling the robot to send alarm information.
Specifically, a communication device (not shown) may be disposed in the robot 20, the communication device is connected to the control device, and the control device controls the communication device to send a short message to the maintenance staff when it is determined that the number of times that the robot 20 calls the elevator again exceeds a second preset value; the alarm information can also be sent out through the prompting device in the embodiment; the control device may be further configured to send alarm information to a server, which sends an alarm to maintenance personnel.
In this embodiment, when determining that the number of times that the robot 20 calls the elevator again exceeds the second preset value, the control device controls the robot 20 to send the alarm information, so that the maintenance personnel can be notified to check the running state of the robot 20 in time, and it is avoided that the robot 20 cannot complete the task in time due to an accident situation such as an elevator failure, a robot 20 failure, an artificial elevator occupation, and the like.
It should be understood that although the various steps in the exemplary flow diagrams of fig. 2-3 are shown in order as indicated by the arrows, the steps are not necessarily performed in order as indicated by the arrows.
