Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure more apparent, the present invention is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings in combination with the detailed description. It should be understood that the description is intended to be illustrative only and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Moreover, in the following description, descriptions of well-known structures and techniques are omitted so as to not unnecessarily obscure the concepts of the present invention.
The present disclosure provides a multi-legged robot system for curtain wall work, as shown in fig. 1-2, comprising a multi-legged robot 2, a rope 1, an extension mechanism 3, and a counter weight device 4.
The multi-legged robot 2 is used to perform curtain wall work.
The rope 1 is used to suspend the stretching means 3. The system requires one or more ropes. One end of the rope is connected to a certain point at the high position of the wall surface, and the other end of the rope is connected to the stretching mechanism 3. The rope is used for bolting the robot and bears the main gravity of the system. The cord mechanism may be a controllable retractable cord mechanism.
The stretching mechanism 3 is connected to the polypod robot 2 and the counter weight device 4 by a link structure, respectively. The stretching mechanism can adjust the distance between the robot body and the rope by geometric deformation.
In one embodiment, the stretching mechanism includes a linkage structure and a stretch actuator. Referring to fig. 3, the link structure includes a first frame 3-2, a second frame 3-3, and a shaft 3-1; the top end of the shaft 3-1 is connected to the rope 1; the first frame 3-2 and the second frame 3-3 are connected at one end to the shaft 3-1 and at the other end to the robot 2 and the counter weight device 4, respectively. The linkage is driven by a tension actuator to effect the opening of the linkage to a certain angle, as shown in figure 4. The stretching actuator comprises a first arm 3-4 and a second arm 3-5 with adjustable length, one end of which is connected to the shaft and the other end of which is connected to the first frame 3-2 and the second frame 3-3, respectively. The first arm 3-4 and the second arm 3-5 can be realized by electric push rods, hydraulic cylinders or pneumatic cylinders.
Further, the first arm 3-4 and the second arm 3-5 are identical in structure and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the shaft 3-1.
Further, the first frame 3-2 and the second frame 3-3 are symmetrically disposed at both sides of the shaft 3-1.
With reference to fig. 5, the extension mechanism is provided with a rotary joint 3-6 fixed to the robot, and the link structure is connected to the robot via the rotary joint 3-6. The revolute joints 3-6 allow the robot to rotate relative to the link structure and attach to the wall at a suitable angle. Referring to fig. 6, the robot is shown rotated to different angles.
When the stretching mechanism 3 is stretched, the robot can be driven to go deep into the sunken area of the wall. Referring to fig. 7(a), when the robot lies on the wall, the stretching mechanism 3 makes the rope 1 in an inclined state. The component force of the rope 1 in the horizontal direction in conjunction with fig. 7(b) provides a positive horizontal pressure when the robot lies on a wall.
The counterweight device 4 can store water for cleaning, a robot battery and other devices. The effect of the counterweight device 4 is to provide a counterweight that, regardless of the extension angle, allows the combined centre of gravity of the robot part and the counterweight cabin as a whole to be located in the vicinity of the extension line of the ropes. The robot can be driven to go deep into the concave part of the wall surface. While also providing a positive pressure perpendicular to the wall surface.
The rotating/sliding part of the robot has more than 12 degrees of freedom. The robot platform moves and stops by using the tension of the rope, the friction force of the wall surface, the wall surface supporting force and the self gravity. The foot end of the robot can be in a sucker structure or a hoof structure without a sucker.
The robot is provided with a cleaning device 5, see fig. 8. Typical cleaning systems may be robotic arms, and end effectors may be window wipers, water jets, and the like. The cleaning device may be one or more robotic arms.
In the case of no wind, as shown in fig. 9, the system is substantially perpendicular to the wall surface and the roll angle is about zero. Referring to fig. 10, when a crosswind occurs on the wall surface, the robot only needs to adjust the gait to change the rolling angle of the upper body. The robot is inclined to the wind direction by a certain angle, and the disturbance to the wind resistance is caused by the friction force of the sole.
With reference to fig. 11, for an uneven wall, when the undulation size is not large or the degree of the concave-convex of the curved surface is not high, the foot-drop point of the robot can be adjusted, and the length of the legs can be adjusted to adapt to the unevenness of the wall.
When a wall obstacle with a larger size is encountered, the robot can jump from the wall, then the length of the rope is adjusted, and the system is descended to a desired position at a specific moment by using a simple pendulum system formed by the rope and the machine system. I.e. move on the wall surface in a jumping way.
Referring to fig. 12, a basic difference of the robot from the conventional robot is that the legs of the walking robot can realize controllable impedance, that is, the walking robot can control the impact of the legs on the wall surface when landing on the surface. Thus, the present disclosure makes use of walking robots to jump on a wall surface, and it is the legs of such robots that control the impedance. The system can reduce the impact effect of the robot on the wall surface, so that the system can safely jump and walk on fragile materials such as glass.
The robot platform in the present disclosure is not limited to a conventional four-footed walking robot, further, the robot may be a two-footed, three-footed, four-footed, five-footed, six-footed, seven-footed, eight-footed robot, or the like.
Possible solutions include, but are not limited to, the following: the axisymmetric type and the plane-symmetric type shown in fig. 13(a) and (b). The robotic platform may carry one, two or more robotic arms as shown in fig. 13 (c).
In addition, in some embodiments, the stretching mechanism may also be implemented in a telescopic grid or the like, and referring to fig. 14, the stretching state of the stretching mechanism in the form of a telescopic grid is shown, and fig. 15, the contracting state of the stretching mechanism in the form of a telescopic grid is shown, and the transverse distance between the robot and the rope is changed through stretching of the telescopic grid. Similar structures are intended to fall within the scope of the present disclosure.
