Abstract

The utility model discloses a suction cup capable of increasing friction force and an adsorption type self-moving device. The suction cup comprises a suction cup body (3) and further comprises friction pads (301 and 302). The friction pads can compress an operation face along with deflation of the suction cup, and consequently the friction force between the suction cup and the operation face is increased. The suction cup has the advantages that when a robot needs large friction force, the friction pads (301 and 302) compress the operation face, and the friction force between the suction cup and the operation face is increased. When the robot does not need too large friction force, the friction pads (301 and 302) are separated from the operation face, and the friction force between the suction cup and the operation face is lowered. In addition, the suction cup has the advantages of being simple in structure and convenient to implement.

Description

Sucker and absorption type self-moving device that can increasing friction force
Technical field
The utility model relates to Robotics field, particularly a kind of sucker and absorption type self-moving device that can increasing friction force.
Background technology
Mainly that adsorption affinity and the friction force that relies on sucker to produce maintains its work at the robot of the upper work of the scope of operation (being also called driving surface) upright or that tilt.In the hypodynamic situation of friction producing at sucker, robot cannot normally be worked, and in the situation that friction force is excessive, is also unfavorable for the walking of robot, and can increase substantially the energy consumption of robot.Therefore, the size of the friction force that robot produces sucker has quite high requirement, and split type robot for cleaning wall surfaces is all the more so.
Conventionally, split type robot for cleaning wall surfaces is that the sucker by arranging on mmi machine and rear machine replaces air-breathing and exits and realize the walking of whole robot in the scope of operation, in the time that the sucker of its front machine is air-breathing, need the sucker of machine thereafter to provide enough adsorption affinity and friction force to ensure whole machine human needs, equally, in the time that the sucker of machine is thereafter air-breathing, also need the sucker of its front machine to provide enough friction force to meet whole machine human needs.And in the situation that the scope of operation is comparatively smooth, the friction force that only relies on the sucker on half fuselage to produce is difficult to meet whole machine human needs, easily cause machine skid and cannot advance.Especially, for the better gluing, sealing wall of sucker, sucker bottom is typically provided with partially flexible material.There is deformation and rock and flexible material itself is easy, being difficult to friction force to pass to whole body.
In order to solve the not enough problem that causes robot normally to work of the friction force producing because of sucker, prior art has adopted the weight that alleviates robot or the technical scheme that increases sucker quantity.Can address the above problem to a certain extent though alleviate the weight of robot or increase sucker quantity, but alleviating of robot weight is often also accompanied by increase substantially (equivalent material as lightweight in adopted, intensity is large, price is high) of the forfeiture (as omitted some parts) of some function or productive costs, and the increase of sucker quantity, can cause the structure of robot to be tending towards complicated, even likely affect the walking of robot, the energy consumption of raising robot because friction force is excessive.
