Description

Self-driving quarantine robot equipped with boron nitride sheet

This is an autonomous robot used for quarantine. Specifically, the purpose is to increase the lifespan and efficiency of the robot by using a heat-dissipating sheet, and to increase portability through roller storage.

The technology behind the invention includes artificial intelligence technology that detects obstacles and drives. It uses artificial intelligence sensors to recognize obstacles and drive. In addition, it was designed based on quarantine robot technology with a sterilizing function that was created due to the recent indiscriminate spread of infectious diseases. Conventional quarantine robots were directly equipped with ultraviolet lamps or disinfectants, which reduced the robot's effectiveness, and since they were simple combination inventions, they had the problem of not being able to efficiently quarantine a wide space.

When combined with BN (boron nitride), it has ductility, so the size of the machine can be flexibly adjusted, and it has high heat dissipation and ultraviolet ray emission functions, which can increase the efficiency of quarantine robots and extend the life of the robot. Additionally, it has the advantage of being able to carry out quarantine regardless of time or location by utilizing the unique characteristics of robots. As the main material to be used in quarantine robots, boron nitride has mechanical and thermal properties and maintains its properties even at high temperatures, so it is not only applied to wearable devices, but is also used in robots equipped with artificial intelligence functions to quarantine crowded places. It can be injected, and the effect of ultraviolet sterilization can be expected in some areas.

In other words, the invention uses hexagonal boron nitride (BN) as a unique solution using a new material with thermal conductivity, heat resistance, and ductility.

The present invention consists of a wheel 100 capable of traveling 360 degrees, and a body 200 including a rotating shaft therein. The interior of the body consists of a heat dissipation sheet (400) that can be stored in a roller type around a rotation axis (300), and an artificial intelligence module. The artificial intelligence module consists of a driving sensor (1000), a battery pack (1200), and a seat adjustment module (500), which can adjust driving or the length of the seat according to the user's instructions. The heat dissipation sheet 400 is specifically composed of hexagonal boron nitride, and the key is to find optimal conditions through CVD or mechanical deposition to have both ductility and electrical conductivity.

Using boron nitride as a sheet has the advantage of extending the life of the machine due to its high heat dissipation properties, making it easy for autonomous driving due to its electrical conductivity, and being ductile so it can be stored in a roller type. It is equipped with autonomous driving functions such as obstacle avoidance and object recognition. In addition, since the sterilization method is a seat rather than a lamp, 360-degree sterilization may not be possible when rotating or driving, so an ultraviolet lamp is combined at the top to help with effective sterilization.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings so that those skilled in the art can easily implement them.

The technical means of the present invention are divided into three types. It will demonstrate ductility that allows for roller-type storage, it will be electrically conductive, so it will prevent obstructions during autonomous driving and increase driving accuracy, and lastly, it will emit ultraviolet rays when an electric field is applied, so there will be no need to attach a separate ultraviolet lamp.

In order to demonstrate the relevant properties, optimal conditions must be found to produce boron nitride sheets.

(Structure) The chemical structure of boron nitride is a 1:1 combination of B and N, so it has a graphite-like crystal structure.

(Purpose) Currently, it is used in the IT/IoT field as high-brightness LED, 5G mobile phone-related modules, electrical insulation and heat dissipation materials for electric vehicles, flexible sensors, and energy harvesting piezoelectric materials. Methods for producing hexagonal BN nanosheets include mechanical exfoliation, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and interlayer compound methods. Generally, the CVD method and mechanical exfoliation method are used to produce hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets. there is.

(Effect) In addition to its excellent heat resistance and electrical insulation properties, BN is capable of precision processing, making it indispensable for use as an insulating material in electronic devices used in heated conditions. Additionally, because it has the characteristics of electrical insulation and high thermal conductivity, it is used as an insulating material for transistors, IC substrates, and sealed heaters.

Boron nitride is a new material used in electronic devices, and its composition and effects can be sufficiently predicted, so it appears to be feasible as an invention. However, since the required properties are different for each field of use, the sheet can be manufactured with different emphasis on thickness, price, heat dissipation, and conductivity. In the present invention, the optimal conditions for demonstrating heat dissipation, ductility, and electrical conductivity are found. This is the purpose of the invention.
