Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de recharge d'une batterie d'un robot sur une base de rechargement de forme complémentaire au robot et apte à réceptionner le robot et destinée à recharger la batterie du robot, la base de rechargement étant connectable à une source électrique, la base de rechargement comprenant un connecteur électrique disposé de façon à permettre une connexion physique de la batterie avec le connecteur électrique permettant une connexion électrique de la batterie avec la base de rechargement pour effectuer la recharge de la batterie. Selon l'invention, le procédé comprend les étapes suivantes : • Positionnement du robot devant la base de rechargement dans un premier sens de déplacement privilégié (étape 1003), • Demi-tour du robot sur lui-même (étape 1004), • Recul du robot vers la base dans un second sens, opposé au premier sens de déplacement privilégié, pour entrer en contact avec la base (étape 1005), • Montée en reculant du robot sur la base de rechargement dans le second sens (étape 1006), • Positionnement du robot sur la base de rechargement jusqu'à la connexion physique (étape 1010), • Connexion électrique de la batterie avec la base de rechargement (étape 1019), • Recharge de la batterie (étape 1014).The invention relates to a method for recharging a battery of a robot on a recharging base of complementary shape to the robot and able to receive the robot and intended to recharge the battery of the robot, the recharging base being connectable to a source electrical, the recharging base comprising an electrical connector arranged so as to allow a physical connection of the battery with the electrical connector allowing an electrical connection of the battery with the recharging base to perform the recharging of the battery. According to the invention, the method comprises the following steps: • Positioning of the robot in front of the recharging base in a first preferred direction of movement (step 1003), • U-turn of the robot on itself (step 1004), • Recoil of the robot towards the base in a second direction, opposite to the first privileged direction of movement, to come into contact with the base (step 1005), • Climbing the robot backwards on the recharging base in the second direction (step 1006), • Positioning of the robot on the recharging base until the physical connection (step 1010), • Electrical connection of the battery with the recharging base (step 1019), • Recharging of the battery (step 1014).
