以下、本発明を実施するための形態(以下、実施形態)について詳細に説明する。以下の説明においては、同様の構成には同じ符号を付し、その説明を省略又は簡略する。なお、当業者が適宜実施できる構成については説明を省略し、本発明の基本的な構成についてのみ説明する。   Hereinafter, modes for carrying out the present invention (hereinafter referred to as embodiments) will be described in detail. In the following description, the same reference numerals are given to the same components, and the description thereof is omitted or simplified. Note that description of configurations that can be appropriately implemented by those skilled in the art will be omitted, and only the basic configuration of the present invention will be described.

図1に示すように、本実施形態の無人車両1は、筐体10を有する。筐体10には、無人車両1の各部を制御するコンピュータ、自律走行装置、無線通信装置、GPS(Global Positioning System)を利用した測位装置、慣性センサー、気圧センサー、バッテリー等が配置されている。また、筐体10には、無線用の通信電波及びGPS衛星からの電波を通信するためのアンテナ部18が配置されている。また、筐体10には、固定装置12を介して、センサー部14が接続されている。センサー部14には、カメラ16が配置されている。カメラ16は、可視光カメラ、または、近赤外線カメラであるが、切り替え可能なハイブリッドカメラであってもよい。   As shown in FIG. 1, the unmanned vehicle 1 of the present embodiment has a housing 10. Arranged in the housing 10 are a computer that controls each part of the unmanned vehicle 1, an autonomous mobile device, a wireless communication device, a positioning device using GPS (Global Positioning System), an inertial sensor, an atmospheric pressure sensor, a battery, and the like. The housing 10 is also provided with an antenna unit 18 for communicating radio communication radio waves and radio waves from GPS satellites. A sensor unit 14 is connected to the housing 10 via a fixing device 12. A camera 16 is disposed in the sensor unit 14. The camera 16 is a visible light camera or a near infrared camera, but may be a switchable hybrid camera.

筐体10には、無人車両用タイヤ20及び30(以下、「タイヤ20」、「タイヤ30」という。)が車軸を介して接続されている。タイヤ20及び30の表面からは、複数の棒状部材50が突出している。タイヤ20は前輪であり、タイヤ20の回転面の方向を変更し、無人車両1の進行方向を制御できるようになっている。タイヤ30は、駆動輪であり、モーター(後述)に接続されている。   Unmanned vehicle tires 20 and 30 (hereinafter referred to as “tire 20” and “tire 30”) are connected to the housing 10 via axles. A plurality of rod-like members 50 protrude from the surfaces of the tires 20 and 30. The tire 20 is a front wheel, and the direction of the rotation surface of the tire 20 can be changed to control the traveling direction of the unmanned vehicle 1. The tire 30 is a drive wheel and is connected to a motor (described later).

図2(a)に示すように、角度θ1を有する坂道100において、棒状部材50が坂道100の路面に接触し、あるいは、突き刺さることで、無人車両1は坂道100を滑ることなく登ることができる。   As shown in FIG. 2A, the unmanned vehicle 1 can climb the hill 100 without sliding on the hill 100 having the angle θ <b> 1 by the bar-shaped member 50 contacting or piercing the road surface of the hill 100. .

図2(b)に示すように、舗装されておらず、凹凸のある走路110において、棒状部材50が走路110の路面に接触し、あるいは、突き刺さることで、無人車両1は走路110を滑ることなく走行することができる。   As shown in FIG. 2 (b), the unmanned vehicle 1 slides on the runway 110 when the bar-shaped member 50 comes into contact with or pierces the road surface of the runway 110 on the runway 110 that is not paved and has an uneven surface. You can drive without.

図2(a)及び図2(b)に示すように、棒状部材50が坂道100や走路110に接触し、あるいは、突き刺さることで、無人車両1が滑ることなく走行するのであるが、各棒状部材50に着目すると、各棒状部材50はタイヤ20及び30の外側表面に形成された孔から出たり、入ったりする。各棒状部材50が、孔から出て、坂道100や走路110に接触したり、突き刺さると、土などの異物が付着する場合がある。この点、各棒状部材50が外側から孔に入る際に、異物は孔の入口でそぎ落とされ、各棒状部材50が次に孔から出て来る時には、異物は付着していない状態である。これにより、棒状部材50による滑り防止効果が維持される。   As shown in FIGS. 2 (a) and 2 (b), the unmanned vehicle 1 travels without slipping when the rod-shaped member 50 comes into contact with or is pierced on the slope 100 or the runway 110. When attention is paid to the member 50, each rod-like member 50 exits or enters through a hole formed in the outer surface of the tires 20 and 30. When each rod-shaped member 50 comes out of the hole and comes into contact with the slope 100 or the runway 110 or is pierced, foreign matter such as soil may adhere. In this regard, when each rod-like member 50 enters the hole from the outside, the foreign matter is scraped off at the entrance of the hole, and when each rod-like member 50 next comes out of the hole, the foreign matter is not attached. Thereby, the slip prevention effect by the rod-shaped member 50 is maintained.

図3(a)はタイヤ30の斜視図等であり、図3(b)はタイヤ30の接地面を示す図である。図3(a)及び図3(b)に示すように、タイヤ30は、タイヤ本体部31を有する。タイヤ本体部31は中空に形成されている。タイヤ本体部31には、歯車が形成されたタイヤ回転軸34が接続されている。タイヤ回転軸34は、歯車36と接続された軸38を介してモーター40と接続されている。タイヤ30の接地面側の壁部(外側壁部30a)には、複数の孔部32の開口部(外側開口部)が形成されている。タイヤ30は、タイヤ回転軸34(厳密にはその中心の軸A1)を中心に回転する。なお、タイヤ20の構造は、駆動軸に接続されておらず、回転面の方向の変更が可能である点を除いて、タイヤ30と同一であるから、説明を省略する。   3A is a perspective view of the tire 30 and the like, and FIG. 3B is a diagram showing a contact surface of the tire 30. FIG. As shown in FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B, the tire 30 has a tire main body 31. The tire main body 31 is formed hollow. The tire body 31 is connected to a tire rotation shaft 34 having gears. The tire rotation shaft 34 is connected to a motor 40 via a shaft 38 connected to a gear 36. Openings (outer openings) of a plurality of holes 32 are formed in the wall part (outer wall part 30 a) on the ground contact surface side of the tire 30. The tire 30 rotates around a tire rotation shaft 34 (strictly, the center axis A1). Note that the structure of the tire 20 is the same as that of the tire 30 except that the structure of the tire 20 is not connected to the drive shaft and the direction of the rotation surface can be changed, and thus the description thereof is omitted.

図4に示すように、タイヤ30のタイヤ回転軸34は中空であり、内部にリンク固定軸56が貫通している。リンク固定軸56は、筐体10内に固定されており、タイヤ30のタイヤ回転軸34が回転しても回転しない。リンク固定軸56は、タイヤ本体部31の内部に延在しており、その端部にリンク部材54が固定されている。リンク部材54の端部には、複数の棒状部材50及び回転軸部52から構成されるスパイク部49が配置されている。回転軸部52の回転軸A2は、タイヤ本体部31のタイヤ回転軸34の回転軸A1と平行であるが、同一軸上には位置しない。回転軸部52には動力軸は接続されていない。リンク固定軸56の一方の端部近傍に配置されたレバー58を操作することによって、リンク固定軸56を回動させ、それに伴って、リンク部材54を回動させ、リンク部材54の角度を調整し、棒状部材50の孔部32からの突出する長さを調整することができる。   As shown in FIG. 4, the tire rotation shaft 34 of the tire 30 is hollow, and the link fixing shaft 56 passes through the inside. The link fixing shaft 56 is fixed in the housing 10 and does not rotate even when the tire rotation shaft 34 of the tire 30 rotates. The link fixing shaft 56 extends inside the tire main body 31, and the link member 54 is fixed to the end thereof. A spike portion 49 including a plurality of rod-shaped members 50 and a rotating shaft portion 52 is disposed at the end of the link member 54. The rotation axis A2 of the rotation shaft portion 52 is parallel to the rotation axis A1 of the tire rotation shaft 34 of the tire body portion 31, but is not located on the same axis. A power shaft is not connected to the rotating shaft portion 52. By operating a lever 58 disposed in the vicinity of one end of the link fixing shaft 56, the link fixing shaft 56 is rotated, and accordingly, the link member 54 is rotated and the angle of the link member 54 is adjusted. And the length which protrudes from the hole 32 of the rod-shaped member 50 can be adjusted.

複数の棒状部材50は回転軸部52に放射形状に配置されている。複数の棒状部材50のうち、一部の棒状部材50の先端部近傍はタイヤ本体部31の孔部32から外部に突出している。   The plurality of rod-shaped members 50 are arranged radially on the rotary shaft portion 52. Among the plurality of rod-shaped members 50, the vicinity of the tip portion of some of the rod-shaped members 50 protrudes from the hole 32 of the tire main body portion 31 to the outside.

孔部32から突出した棒状部材50が走行路に接触した状態で、タイヤ30が回転すると、棒状部材50に接続された回転軸部52が回転するようになっている。スパイク部49が回転軸A2を回転軸として回転することによって、棒状部材50は孔部32を出たり入ったり(進退)するように構成されている。   When the tire 30 rotates in a state where the rod-shaped member 50 protruding from the hole portion 32 is in contact with the traveling road, the rotating shaft portion 52 connected to the rod-shaped member 50 is rotated. When the spike portion 49 rotates about the rotation axis A2, the rod-shaped member 50 is configured to exit and enter the hole 32 (advance and retreat).

図5(a)は孔部32をタイヤ本体部31の外側壁部30a側から視た概略図であり、図5(b)は孔部32をタイヤ本体部31の内側壁部30b側から視た概略図である。外側壁部30a側はタイヤ本体部31の外側面(接地面)であり、内側壁部30bはタイヤ本体部31の内側面である。図5(c)は、孔部32の孔を外側面30aと内側壁部30bを結ぶ方向において切断した概略断面図である。孔部32の外側開口部32aの外形(直径)は、棒状部材50の断面形状(直径)よりもわずかに(例えば、3%)大きい。また、孔部32の内側開口部32bの外形(直径)は、外側開口部32aの外形(直径)よりも大きく、内側開口部32bと外側開口部32aとの間は、傾斜部32cとして構成されている。   5A is a schematic view of the hole 32 viewed from the outer wall 30a side of the tire body 31. FIG. 5B is a view of the hole 32 viewed from the inner wall 30b side of the tire body 31. FIG. FIG. The outer wall portion 30 a side is an outer surface (grounding surface) of the tire body portion 31, and the inner wall portion 30 b is an inner surface of the tire body portion 31. FIG. 5C is a schematic cross-sectional view of the hole 32 cut in the direction connecting the outer surface 30a and the inner wall 30b. The outer shape (diameter) of the outer opening 32 a of the hole 32 is slightly (for example, 3%) larger than the cross-sectional shape (diameter) of the rod-shaped member 50. Further, the outer shape (diameter) of the inner opening 32b of the hole 32 is larger than the outer shape (diameter) of the outer opening 32a, and the inclined portion 32c is configured between the inner opening 32b and the outer opening 32a. ing.

図6乃至図8を参照して、スパイク部49が回転して、棒状部材50が孔部32を進退する状態を説明する。スパイク部49の直径は、タイヤ本体部31の内部の直径と略同一である。本実施形態において、スパイク部49の直径は、タイヤ本体部31の内部の直径よりも、わずかに小さく、具体的には、5%小さい。複数の棒状部材50を便宜的に、棒状部材50A乃至50Pとして識別し、棒状部材50Aに着目して、スパイク部49が回転して、棒状部材50Aが孔部32を進退する状態を説明する。   With reference to FIG. 6 thru | or FIG. 8, the state which the spike part 49 rotates and the rod-shaped member 50 advances / retreats the hole part 32 is demonstrated. The diameter of the spike portion 49 is substantially the same as the inside diameter of the tire body portion 31. In the present embodiment, the diameter of the spike portion 49 is slightly smaller than the inside diameter of the tire main body portion 31, specifically, 5% smaller. For convenience, the plurality of rod-like members 50 are identified as rod-like members 50A to 50P, and focusing on the rod-like member 50A, a state in which the spike portion 49 rotates and the rod-like member 50A advances and retracts through the hole portion 32 will be described.

図6乃至図8において、タイヤ30は、矢印Y1方向(時計回り)に回転し、矢印X1方向(右方向)に移動するものとする。図6(a)の状態において、棒状部材50Aの自由端部はタイヤ本体部31の内部に位置する。ただし、棒状部材50G、50H及び50Iが走路120に接触しているため、タイヤ30が矢印Y1方向に回転して矢印X1方向へ移動すると、スパイク部49は回転軸部52(厳密には、図4の回転軸A2)を中心として回転する。リンク部材54は、右斜め下(鉛直方向を基準とすると45度)の角度に固定されており、タイヤ30が回転しても、リンク部材54の角度は維持される。   6 to 8, the tire 30 rotates in the arrow Y1 direction (clockwise) and moves in the arrow X1 direction (right direction). In the state of FIG. 6A, the free end portion of the rod-shaped member 50 </ b> A is located inside the tire body portion 31. However, since the rod-shaped members 50G, 50H, and 50I are in contact with the runway 120, when the tire 30 rotates in the direction of the arrow Y1 and moves in the direction of the arrow X1, the spike portion 49 becomes the rotation shaft portion 52 (strictly, in FIG. 4 rotation axis A2). The link member 54 is fixed at an obliquely lower right angle (45 degrees when the vertical direction is used as a reference), and the angle of the link member 54 is maintained even when the tire 30 rotates.

図6(a)の状態からタイヤ30が矢印Y1方向に回転すると、棒状部材50Aの自由端部は、複数の孔部32のうち、一つの孔部32に近づく(図6(b)参照)。そして、タイヤ30がさらに矢印Y1方向に回転すると、棒状部材50Aの自由端部はその孔部32から外部に露出する(図6(c)参照)。   When the tire 30 rotates in the arrow Y1 direction from the state of FIG. 6A, the free end portion of the rod-shaped member 50A approaches one of the plurality of hole portions 32 (see FIG. 6B). . When the tire 30 further rotates in the direction of the arrow Y1, the free end portion of the rod-shaped member 50A is exposed to the outside from the hole portion 32 (see FIG. 6C).

棒状部材50Aは、その長さ方向がリンク部材54の長さ方向と一致するとき、すなわち、棒状部材50Aがリンク部材54と同じく右斜め下方向(鉛直方向に対して45度)の角度になったときに、その自由端部の露出する部分の長さが最長になる(図7(a)参照)。図7(a)の状態から、タイヤ30がさらに矢印Y1方向に回転すると、棒状部材50Aの自由端部は、走路120に接触する。   When the length direction of the rod-shaped member 50A coincides with the length direction of the link member 54, that is, the angle of the rod-shaped member 50A is obliquely downward to the right (45 degrees with respect to the vertical direction), like the link member 54. The length of the exposed portion of the free end becomes the longest (see FIG. 7A). When the tire 30 further rotates in the arrow Y1 direction from the state of FIG. 7A, the free end portion of the rod-shaped member 50A comes into contact with the runway 120.

タイヤ30がさらに矢印Y1方向に回転し、棒状部材50Aの長さ方向の角度が鉛直に近くなると、棒状部材50Aが走路120と接触する長さ(走路120に食い込む長さ)は最長となる(図7(b)参照)。   When the tire 30 further rotates in the direction of arrow Y1 and the angle in the length direction of the rod-shaped member 50A becomes close to the vertical, the length of the rod-shaped member 50A contacting the runway 120 (the length that bites into the runway 120) is the longest ( (Refer FIG.7 (b)).

図7(b)の状態から、タイヤ30が矢印Y1方向に回転すると、棒状部材50Aの自由端部及びその近傍部は、スパイク部49の回転により、走路120に最も食い込んだ状態から、抜かれる方向の力を受け、図7(c)に示す状態になる。   When the tire 30 rotates in the direction of the arrow Y1 from the state of FIG. 7B, the free end portion and the vicinity thereof of the rod-shaped member 50A are removed from the state of being most bited into the runway 120 by the rotation of the spike portion 49. Upon receiving the direction force, the state shown in FIG.

図7(c)の状態から、タイヤ30がさらに矢印Y1方向に回転すると、棒状部材50Aの先端部は、走路120から完全に引き抜かれ、孔部32の外側開口部32a(図5参照)に近づく(図8(a)参照)。そして、タイヤ30がさらに矢印Y1方向に回転すると、棒状部材50Aの先端部は、孔部32を外側から内側に貫通し、タイヤ本体部31の内部に格納される(図8(b)参照)。棒状部材50Aの自由端部及びその近傍部が走路120に最も食い込んだ状態(図7(b)参照)から徐々に孔部32に引き込まれる過程において、棒状部材50Aの自由端部及びその近傍部に付着した土などの異物は、棒状部材50Aが孔部32の外側開口部32aに接触することによって、そぎ落とされ、排除される。   When the tire 30 further rotates in the direction of the arrow Y1 from the state of FIG. 7C, the tip of the rod-shaped member 50A is completely pulled out from the runway 120 and into the outer opening 32a of the hole 32 (see FIG. 5). Approach (see FIG. 8A). When the tire 30 further rotates in the direction of the arrow Y1, the tip of the rod-shaped member 50A penetrates the hole 32 from the outside to the inside, and is stored in the tire body 31 (see FIG. 8B). . In the process in which the free end portion of the rod-shaped member 50A and the vicinity thereof are gradually drawn into the hole 32 from the state where the free end portion of the rod-shaped member 50A is most bited into the runway 120 (see FIG. 7B), the free end portion of the rod-shaped member 50A and the vicinity thereof. Foreign matter such as soil adhering to the surface is scraped off and eliminated when the rod-shaped member 50A contacts the outer opening 32a of the hole 32.

図9及び図10を参照して、棒状部材50Aが一つの孔部32に入り、突出し、さらに、格納される状態を説明する。図9(a)に示すように、棒状部材50Aの自由端部は、まず、孔部32の内側開口部32bに到達し、続いて、傾斜部32cを滑り(図9(b)参照)、外側開口部32aから突出する(図9(c)参照)。続いて、棒状部材50Aの先端部及びその近傍部は走路130に接触し、さらに走路130に食い込み(図10(a)参照)、さらに、食い込み状態が最大になり(図10(b)参照)、その後、走路130から引き抜かれ、孔部32からタイヤ本体部31に格納される際に、自由端部及びその近傍部に付着した異物200は、棒状部材50Aが外側開口部32aと接触することによってそぎ落とされる(図10(c)参照)。   With reference to FIG.9 and FIG.10, the rod-shaped member 50A enters into the one hole part 32, protrudes, and also the state accommodated is demonstrated. As shown in FIG. 9A, the free end of the rod-shaped member 50A first reaches the inner opening 32b of the hole 32, and then slides on the inclined portion 32c (see FIG. 9B). It protrudes from the outer opening 32a (see FIG. 9C). Subsequently, the tip of the rod-shaped member 50A and the vicinity thereof contact the runway 130, further bite into the runway 130 (see FIG. 10A), and further, the bite state becomes maximum (see FIG. 10B). Then, when the foreign matter 200 attached to the free end portion and the vicinity thereof is pulled out from the runway 130 and stored in the tire body portion 31 from the hole portion 32, the rod-shaped member 50A comes into contact with the outer opening portion 32a. (See FIG. 10C).

図11を参照して、リンク部材54の角度の調整について説明する。リンク部材54の角度は、タイヤ30の回転中は固定されているが、無人車両1を動作させる前に、所定の角度に調整しておくことができる。これにより、棒状部材50と走路140との接触の程度を調整することができる。   The adjustment of the angle of the link member 54 will be described with reference to FIG. The angle of the link member 54 is fixed while the tire 30 is rotating, but can be adjusted to a predetermined angle before the unmanned vehicle 1 is operated. Thereby, the contact degree of the rod-shaped member 50 and the runway 140 can be adjusted.

例えば、図11(a)に示すように、リンク部材54の長さ方向の仮想線B2と鉛直線B1との角度を角度θ2とする。角度θ2をより鋭角にして、例えば、30度に設定すると、角度θ2が45度とのときよりも、走路140に食い込む部分の深さH1が深くなる。例えば、走路140の傾斜が大きいとか、走路140の凹凸が激しい場合には、このように、棒状部材50が走路140に食い込む深さH1を深くして、安定した走行を可能にする。   For example, as shown in FIG. 11A, the angle between the imaginary line B2 in the length direction of the link member 54 and the vertical line B1 is an angle θ2. When the angle θ2 is set to an acute angle, for example, set to 30 degrees, the depth H1 of the portion that bites into the runway 140 becomes deeper than when the angle θ2 is 45 degrees. For example, when the runway 140 is slanted or the runway 140 is uneven, the depth H1 at which the rod-like member 50 bites into the runway 140 is increased to enable stable travel.

これに対して、図11(b)に示すように、角度θ2をより鈍角にして、例えば、120度に設定すると、タイヤ30が回転しても棒状部材50が、走路140に接触することはない。例えば、走路140がコンクリートやアスファルトのような舗装された走路である場合には、このように、棒状部材50が走路140に接することのないように設定する。   On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 11 (b), when the angle θ2 is made more obtuse and is set to 120 degrees, for example, the rod-shaped member 50 does not contact the runway 140 even if the tire 30 rotates. Absent. For example, when the runway 140 is a paved runway such as concrete or asphalt, the rod-like member 50 is set so as not to contact the runway 140 in this way.
