在本实用新型实施方式中,所述机体10包括底盘11,所述行走模块20包括至少一个行走轮组件21及与所述至少一个行走轮组件21配套设置的固定座22,所述至少一个行走轮组件21包括轮体211及用于支撑所述轮体211转动的轮轴212,所述固定座22套设于所述轮轴212,所述轮轴212与所述固定座22活动连接。所述固定座22与所述底盘11可拆卸连接。
本实用新型公开的自动行走机器人,将行走轮组件21通过固定座22可拆卸连接于机体10的底盘11上,从而可方便地拆卸行走轮组件21,以便维修或更换行走轮组件21。
进一步地,如图2及图5-7所示,所述固定座22上设有卡接件221,所述底盘11上对应所述卡接件221的位置设有配合部,所述卡接件221与所述配合部卡扣连接。通过固定座22上的卡接件221与底盘11上的配合部进行卡扣连接的方式来实现行走轮组件21与底盘11的可拆卸连接,结构简单且可拆卸效果好。
优选地,如图图5-7所示,所述卡接件221包括沿机体10高度方向延伸的弹性臂2211,所述弹性臂2211上设有沿垂直于机体10高度方向延伸的凸起 2212,所述配合部设有凹槽111。固定座22上的凸起2212卡入底盘11上的凹槽111内以实现所述卡接件221与所述配合部的卡扣连接,所述弹性臂2211受力带动所述凸起2212与所述凹槽111分离以允许所述固定座22从所述底盘11拆卸。
如图1-2及图5-7所示,固定座22上设有相对的两个弹性臂2211,每个弹性臂2211上分别设有凸起2211,相应地,底盘11上也设有两个凹槽111。在安装行走模块10时,可从底盘11下部将固定座22向底盘11内移动并推动弹性臂2211,凸起2212在移动的过程中遇到凹槽111即会卡入凹槽111内,从而将行走模块20安装至底盘11。安装完成后,弹性臂2211突出于底盘11的下部。当需要拆卸行走模块20时,可分别手持两个弹性臂2211的突出部分,将其沿固定座22的径向向内按压即可带动凸起2212与凹槽111分离,继续手持弹性臂2211的突出部分并将其向远离机体10的方向移动,即可将固定座22及行走轮组件21一起从底盘11上拆卸下来。
在本实用新型实施方式中,如图3所示,所述轮轴212包括沿所述机体10高度方向延伸的第一轴体2121、与所述轮体211同轴设置的第二轴体2122以及连接在所述第一轴体2121和第二轴体2122之间的弯曲轴体2123。所述第二轴体2122与所述轮体211转动连接。所述第一轴体2121具有沿所述机体10高度方向延伸的第一轴线X,所述轮轴212能够相对于所述固定座22沿第一轴线X运动。
具体来说,第一轴体2121与第二轴体2122相互垂直。第一轴体2121用于与固定座22滑动连接,而第二轴体2122用于与轮体211转动连接,弯曲轴体2123用于将第一轴体2121与第二轴体2122连接起来。
进一步地,如图2及图5-7所示,所述第一轴体2121上远离所述弯曲轴体2123的一端设有沿所述第一轴体2121的径向向外延伸的第一止挡部2131,所述第一轴体2121上靠近所述弯曲轴体2123的一端设有沿所述第一轴体2121的径向向外延伸的第二止挡部214。所述固定座22上设有第一通孔222,所述第一轴体2121穿过所述第一通孔222,所述第一通孔222内设有沿所述第一通孔222的径向向内延伸的第一限位部2231及第二限位部2232,所述第一限位部2231及第二限位部2232沿所述第一通孔222的轴向间隔设置。如图6所示,当所述轮体211支撑在地面,所述第二限位部2232抵接所述第二止挡部214。如图5所示。当所述机体10向远离地面的方向运动,所述轮轴212沿所述第一轴线X运动直至所述第一限位部2231抵接所述第一止挡部2131。通过第一限位部2231与第一止挡部2131的配合,以及第二限位部2141与第二止挡部214的配合,可以使第一轴体2121在固定座22内的上下滑动一定的距离,从而轮轴212与固定座22的滑动连接。
优选地,如图2及图5-6所示,所述第一轴体2121与所述第一通孔222之间设有固定连接于所述固定座22的轴套223,所述第一轴体2121与所述轴套223间隙配合,所述轴套223在第一轴线X上的两端分别构造为所述第一限位 部2231及第二限位部2232。通过设置轴套223,可以构造出第一限位部2231及第二限位部2232。
进一步地,如图2及图5-6所示,所述第一轴体2121上远离所述弯曲轴体2123的一端设有固定帽213,所述固定帽213靠近所述轴套223的一端构造为所述第一止挡部2131,所述固定帽213上固设有感应元件2132,所述底盘11上对应所述感应元件2132的位置设有感应装置112。所述机体10上设有控制模块,所述感应装置112与所述控制模块连接。当所述机体10向远离地面的方向运动,所述感应元件2132跟随所述轮轴212沿第一轴线X运动,所述感应装置111被触发而向所述控制模块发送检测信号,所述控制模块接收到检测信号时,判断所述机体10被抬升。
在本实用新型实施方式中,所述感应元件2132为磁体,所述感应装置112为霍尔传感器。
具体来说,当自动割草机在草坪地面上遇到障碍物(有可能是石头等物体也可能是腿脚等人体/动物的一部分)时,会攀爬上障碍物,此时机体10的可能会被抬起而向远离地面的方向运动,若自动行走机器人继续行走可能会发生机体侧翻,或者工作模块的切割元件对人体或动物造成伤害等意外情况。在机体10被抬起时,依靠行走轮组件的重力,轮轴212会相对机体10向下运动一段距离。同时,感应元件2132会随轮轴212向下运动,而感应装置112会检测到感应元件2132的位置发生变化(也即因磁体的位置发生变化而使霍尔传感器 所感应到的磁场强度发生了变化),感应装置112会向控制模块发送检测信号,则控制模块判断机体10被抬升。随后,控制模块会控制自动行走机器人执行相应的指令,如控制切割元件停止转动,和/或限制行走模块20沿行进方向继续运动等,从而可以避免出现上述意外情况。当机体10不处于抬升状态时,依靠整机重力,轮轴212上的磁体恢复到常规位置,则控制模块判断机体10的抬升动作结束。控制模块可控制切割元件启动和/或控制行走模块20继续运动等。
进一步地,所述行走模块20包括两个行走轮组件21,每个行走轮组件21的固定帽213上均设有感应元件2132,所述底盘11上对应每个所述感应元件2132的位置均设有感应装置112。当所述机体10向远离地面的方向运动,每个所述感应元件2132均跟随对应的所述轮轴212沿第一轴线X运动,对应的所述感应装置112均被触发而分别向所述控制模块发送检测信号。当所述控制模块接收到两个感应装置112发出的检测信号时,判断所述机体10被抬升。
在一些情况下,可能会发生仅有一个行走轮组件21遇到障碍物而向远离地面的方向运动的情况。若障碍物较小,则此行走轮组件21是有可能越过障碍物而自动行走机器人可以继续正常行进并工作;而若障碍物较大以致该行走轮组件21无法越过障碍物,则会连带另一个行走轮组件21也向远离地面的方向运动,此时需要控制模块控制自动行走机器人执行相应的指令,如控制切割元件停止转动,和/或限制行走模块20沿行进方向继续运动等。而为了进一步确定是属于上述哪种情况,可设定控制模块在接收到两个感应装置112发出的检测 信号时,才判断所述机体10被抬升。
如图2及图6所示,所述第一轴体2121上靠近所述弯曲轴体2123的一端套设有沿第一轴体2121的径向向外延伸的垫片214,所述垫片214构造为所述第二止挡部214。通过在轮轴上设置垫片214,在轮体21支撑在底面时,垫片214抵接轴套223上的第二限位部2232,则此时第一轴体2121不会在轴套223中运动,保证行走模块的稳定。进一步地,因第一轴体2121与所述轴套223间隙配合,在自动割草机工作时,草屑或其他颗粒物有可能进入第一轴体2121与轴套223的间隙内;而垫片214可设置在靠近弯曲轴体2123的一端,并且可将垫片的直径设置为大于轴套223的内径,则可以完全遮挡住第一轴体2121与轴套223的间隙,从而可阻挡草屑或其他颗粒物进入间隙。
进一步地,所述第一轴体2121上设有沿第一轴体2121的径向向外延伸的凸部2121a,所述凸部2121a设于所述垫片214下方并限制所述垫片214沿靠近所述轮体211的方向运动。也就是说,当轮体211支撑在地面,轮轴212上的凸部2121a及垫片211与轴套223上的第二限位部2232进行配合限位(即在自动行走机器人放置在地面上时,凸部2121a对机体10起到支撑作用)。
具体地,轴套223的材质可以为铜,固定座22的材质可以为塑料,而轮轴212和垫片214的材质可以为钢。垫片214还可用于防止凸部2121a对轴套223的磨损。
本实用新型公开的自动行走机器人,将行走轮组件通过固定座可拆卸连接 于机体的底盘上,从而可方便地拆卸行走轮组件,以便维修或更换行走轮组件。固定座上的凸起可卡入底盘的凹槽,从而实现行走轮组件与底盘的卡扣连接。固定座上的弹性臂可受力带动凸起与凹槽卡扣或分离。通过第一限位部与第一止挡部的配合,以及第二限位部与第二止挡部的配合,可以使第一轴体在固定座内的上下滑动一定的距离,从而轮轴与固定座的滑动连接。当机体向远离地面的方向运动,感应元件跟随轮轴沿第一轴线运动,感应装置被触发而向控制模块发送检测信号,控制模块接收到检测信号时,判断机体被抬升。随后,控制模块会控制自动行走机器人执行相应的指令,如控制切割元件停止转动,和/或限制行走模块沿行进方向继续运动等,从而可以避免出现一些意外情况。当轮体支撑在地面,轮轴上的凸部及垫片与轴套上的第二限位部进行配合限位。垫片可设置在靠近弯曲轴体的一端,并且可将垫片的直径设置为大于轴套的内径,则可以完全遮挡住第一轴体与轴套的间隙,从而可阻挡草屑或其他颗粒物进入间隙。垫片还可用于防止凸部对轴套的磨损。
