Referring to fig. 1 and 2, an embodiment of the present invention provides a robot sensor including a control circuit board 10, a transmitter 20, a first receiver 30, and a second receiver 40.
The transmitter 20, the first receiver 30 and the second receiver 40 are all electrically connected to the control circuit board 10. The second receiver 40 is used for receiving external signals; the transmitter 20 transmits an obstacle avoidance detection signal to the outside to sense an obstacle. The first receiver 30 is configured to receive the obstacle avoidance detection signal reflected back by the obstacle. By integrally arranging the transmitter 20 and the first and second receivers 30 and 40 on the control circuit board 10, the hardware structure and the control system of the robot are simplified, thereby saving the production cost.
In one embodiment, the second receiver 40 is located between the transmitter 20 and the first receiver 30. Since the transmitter 20 and the first receiver 30 perform ranging based on the principle of triangulation, the distance between the transmitting and receiving devices is far enough to improve the ranging accuracy. Of course, the transmitter 20 and the first receiver 30 may be disposed on the control circuit board 10 in a close arrangement, and when the inclination angle of the light emitted by the transmitter 10 is large, the influence on the receiving effect of the first receiver 30 is relatively small even when the transmitting and receiving installation distances are relatively close.
The emitter 20, the first receiver 30 and the second receiver 40 are all located on the same side of the control circuit board 10, and the second receiver 40 is located between the emitter 20 and the first receiver 30, so that the same side of the element is arranged, and the processing and the production are facilitated.
In one embodiment, the control circuit board 10 has two mounting holes 11 formed therethrough, and the mounting holes 11 are used for connecting screws to pass through so as to screw the control circuit board to other structural members. And two mounting holes 11 are arranged diagonally, and mounting holes 11 are diagonally arranged, and the screw passes through and fixes more firmly.
In one embodiment, the transmitter 20 is an infrared laser and correspondingly, the first receiver 30 is an optical receiver. The transmitter 20 emits a transverse or longitudinal line laser beam, which, when it strikes an obstacle, enables the line lidar to perform ranging. The reflected transverse or longitudinal line laser light is simultaneously collected by the first receiver 30, i.e. a sample of the collected data is added. The samples of the collected data are fed back to the control circuit board 10, and then the distance between the obstacle and the robot is calculated by the control circuit board 10 according to the samples of the collected data through preset parameters.
Optionally, the infrared laser is a line laser or a point laser, and of course, the infrared laser is not limited to the line laser or the point laser, and may also be a laser with other structures. When the infrared laser is a linear laser, the linear laser is parallel or vertical to the working plane of the robot. At this time, the inclination angle of the light emitted by the emitter 20 is small, so that the distance between the second receiver 40 and the emitter 20 needs to be set slightly far, which is beneficial for the second receiver 40 to receive signals and improves the ranging accuracy.
In one embodiment, the first receiver 30 and the second receiver 40 have different receiving bands, and the first receiver 30 and the second receiver 40 receive different signal bands or characteristics, so that there is no signal interference between the two.
Optionally, the second receiver 30 is an infrared receiver for receiving an external infrared encoding signal, and of course, the second receiver 40 may also be other signal receivers, which is not limited. The external infrared coding signal is sent by a robot base station, remote control equipment or equipment existing in the environment; and the number of the robot base station or the remote control device is plural.
In one embodiment, the transmitter 20, the first receiver 30 and the second receiver 40 are all vertically disposed on the control circuit board 10. I.e. the angle of inclination of the light emitted by the emitter 20 is small, and is thus suitable for arrangements in which the second receiver 40 is sandwiched between the emitter 20 and the first receiver 30, i.e. a larger distance between the emitter 20 and the first receiver 30.
Further, the embodiment of the utility model discloses a robot, this robot includes according to above-mentioned embodiment robot sensor. The robot can be a sweeper or a mobile robot.
The above description is only exemplary of the present application and should not be taken as limiting the present application, as any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
