Detailed Description
The following detailed description of the present invention is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but it should be understood that the scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments.
Throughout the specification and claims, unless explicitly stated otherwise, the word "comprise", or variations such as "comprises" or "comprising", will be understood to imply the inclusion of a stated element or component but not the exclusion of any other element or component.
Referring to fig. 1 to 3, an obstacle crossing wheel according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: main part 1, drive wheel 2 and a plurality of telescopic link 3.
The body 1 is formed with a cam track 11, the cam track 11 having an offset circle 111. The drive wheel 2 is rotatably connected to the main body 1, and the drive wheel 2 can rotate about the axis of the offset circle 111 as a rotation axis. On the drive wheel 2 was worn to locate that a plurality of telescopic links 3 can stretch out and draw back, this a plurality of telescopic links 3 are radial setting along the tangential direction of cam track 11 offset circle 111, and one end sliding connection that these a plurality of telescopic links 3 are close to cam track 11 is on cam track 11.
When the driving wheel 2 rotates, one end of the telescopic rod 3 close to the cam track 11 can be driven to slide along the cam track 11, so that one end of the telescopic rod 3 far away from the cam track 11 extends out of the driving wheel 2 or retracts into the driving wheel 2.
The drive wheel 2 has a running contact surface 21, and the running contact surface 21 can be brought into contact with a medium such as a floor surface when the drive wheel 2 runs. One end of the telescopic rod 3, which is far away from the cam track 11, extends out of the driving wheel 2, namely one end of the telescopic rod 3, which is far away from the cam track 11, protrudes out of the walking contact surface 21; the end of the telescopic rod 3 away from the cam track 11 is retracted out of the driving wheel 2, which means that the end of the telescopic rod 3 away from the cam track 11 is located within the range defined by the walking contact surface 21.
With the operation of the driving wheel 2, the telescopic rod 3 can be switched between the extended and retracted states. In the obstacle crossing process of the obstacle crossing wheel, the end part of the telescopic rod 3 extending out of the driving wheel 2 can be abutted against the obstacle, so that the obstacle crossing wheel can turn over by taking the contact point of the telescopic rod 3 and the obstacle as a fulcrum, and the obstacle crossing is realized.
In an exemplary embodiment, referring to fig. 3, the cam track 11 includes a push travel track 112 and a return travel track 113. When the telescopic rod 3 slides along the stroke pushing track 112, the telescopic rod 3 can move towards the direction of extending out of the driving wheel 2, that is, when one end of the telescopic rod 3 close to the cam track 11 slides along the stroke pushing track 112 of the cam track 11, the telescopic rod 3 can move towards the direction of the outer part of the driving wheel 2 from the inner part of the driving wheel 2, so that one end of the telescopic rod 3 far away from the cam track 11 extends out of the driving wheel 2. When the telescopic rod 3 slides along the return track 113, it can move in the direction of retracting the driving wheel 2, i.e. when the end of the telescopic rod 3 close to the cam track 11 slides along the return track 113 of the cam track 11, the telescopic rod 3 can move from the outside direction of the driving wheel 2 to the inside direction of the driving wheel 2, so that the end of the telescopic rod 3 far from the cam track 11 retracts into the driving wheel 2.
In an exemplary embodiment, when the end of the telescopic rod 3 far from the cam track 11 is driven by the driving wheel 2 to rotate to the lowest point of the rotation track, the telescopic rod 3 is completely retracted into the driving wheel 2. When the obstacle crossing wheel walks on the ground or other media, in order to avoid the contact between the telescopic rod 3 and the ground or other media, the end of the telescopic rod 3 far away from the cam track 11 needs to be completely retracted into the driving wheel 2 before the lowest point (the point closest to the ground or other media) or the lowest point of the rotation track, so that the normal walking of the image obstacle crossing wheel is avoided.
In an exemplary embodiment, in the process of obstacle crossing of the obstacle crossing wheel, the position range of the telescopic rod 3 extending out of the driving wheel 2 can be set according to the obstacle crossing height range of actual needs. For example, the range of the position where the telescopic rod 3 is extended out of the driving wheel 2 may be set between a height of one-half radius of the driving wheel 2 and a height of radius of the driving wheel 2, that is, between a height of one-half radius of the driving wheel 2 and a height of radius of the driving wheel 2, so that at least a part of the telescopic rod 3 is extended out of the driving wheel 2 and is located at the front side in the traveling direction of the driving wheel 2.
In an exemplary embodiment, the cam track 11 is configured to enable a sinusoidal acceleration cycloid movement of the telescopic rod 3 when sliding along the cam track 11.
That is, the push path 112 of the cam path 11 needs to satisfy the following equation:
x=δ1×t
y=h×(t-sin(360×t)/(2π));
and the return track 113 of the cam track 11 needs to satisfy the following equation:
x=δ123×t
y=h×(1+cos(180×(δ3×t)/δ3))/2;
wherein h is lift, δ1Is the push angle, delta2To the far angle of repose, delta3Is the return angle.
The cam track 11 satisfying the above equation can change the stress (acceleration) of the telescopic rod 3 in the operation process as a trigonometric function without sudden change of the front and rear stress, thereby reducing the seizure condition of the telescopic rod 3 in the operation process.
In an exemplary embodiment, the plurality of telescopic rods 3 are uniformly arranged on the driving wheel 2 along the circumferential direction of the driving wheel 2, and the plurality of telescopic rods 3 are configured to rotate synchronously with the driving wheel 2. During the operation of the obstacle crossing wheel, the cam track 11 is kept stationary relative to the main body 1, the driving wheel 2 rotates relative to the main body 1, and the telescopic rod 3 is driven to rotate together during the rotation of the driving wheel 2.
In an exemplary embodiment, referring to fig. 4 to 6, the driving wheel 2 includes a first hub 22 and a second hub 23 which are coaxially disposed and fixedly connected to each other. A plurality of first receiving grooves 221 are formed on a surface of the first hub 22 facing the second hub 23, a plurality of second receiving grooves 231 corresponding to the first receiving grooves 221 are formed on a surface of the second hub 23 facing the first hub, and the first receiving grooves 221 and the second receiving grooves 231 define a sliding slot for defining a telescopic path of the telescopic rod 3. The axis of each runner is arranged tangentially to the offset circle 111 of the cam track 11 so that the telescopic rod 3 can slide in the tangential direction of the offset circle 111 of the cam track 11 under the limiting action of the runners.
In an exemplary embodiment, a gap is formed between the telescopic rod 3 and the inner wall of the sliding chute, the width of the gap is between 0.01 mm and 0.03mm, and the matching length between the telescopic rod 3 and the sliding chute is not less than one third of the length of the telescopic rod 3. The friction between the telescopic rod 3 and the sliding groove can be reduced by the arrangement of the gap, so that the telescopic rod 3 can slide more smoothly in the sliding groove. The matching length between the telescopic rod 3 and the sliding groove is set to be not less than one third of the length of the telescopic rod 3, so that the stress of the telescopic rod 3 is relatively uniformly dispersed in the operation process of the obstacle crossing wheel.
Specifically, in order to further reduce the friction between the telescopic rod 3 and the sliding chute, the first hub 22 and the second hub 23 may be made of a self-lubricating material such as POM.
In an exemplary embodiment, the driving wheel 2 further includes a wheel sleeve 24 sleeved on the outer peripheral surfaces of the first wheel hub 22 and the second wheel hub 23, the wheel sleeve 24 is provided with a plurality of through holes 241 corresponding to the sliding grooves, and the telescopic rod 3 can extend out of the wheel sleeve 24 through the through holes 241. The outer peripheral surface of the wheel sleeve 24 defines the running contact surface 21 of the driving wheel 2, i.e. when the driving wheel 2 runs on a medium such as a ground surface, the outer peripheral surface of the wheel sleeve 24 contacts the medium such as the ground surface as the running contact surface 21 of the driving wheel 2.
In an exemplary embodiment, referring to fig. 7, a clamping groove is formed at an end of the telescopic rod 3 away from the cam track 11, a fastening portion 31 is formed in the clamping groove, a rubber head 32 is arranged in the clamping groove, and the rubber head 32 is fastened on the fastening portion 31. The rubber head 32 can increase the friction force with the obstacle when the telescopic rod 3 assists in obstacle crossing, and prevents the obstacle crossing wheel from slipping in the climbing process. Meanwhile, in order to prevent the rubber head 32 from falling off in the process that the telescopic rod 3 repeatedly extends and retracts on the driving wheel 2, a flange is formed on the periphery of the buckling part 31 in a radially protruding mode, the flange is embedded in the rubber head 32, and the rubber head 32 can be clamped and locked in the clamping groove.
The present invention will be further described with reference to specific scenarios.
