Referring to fig. 1-4, an embodiment of the present application provides a mobile robot suspension mechanism 100 including a lever plate 20 and road wheels.
The lever plate 20 is swingable about a first axis L1 extending in the front-rear direction. The walking wheel comprises a first walking wheel 50 and a second walking wheel 60 which are arranged on the lever plate 20, the first walking wheel 50 and the second walking wheel 60 are respectively positioned at the left side and the right side of the first axis L1, the first walking wheel 50 can rotate around the second axis L2 to walk, the second walking wheel 60 can rotate around the third axis L3 to walk, and when the walking wheel walks in the front-back direction, the extending direction of the second axis L2 and the extending direction of the third axis L3 are different from the extending direction of the first axis L1.
The front and rear parts of the chassis 200 of the mobile robot may be respectively provided with the mobile robot suspension mechanism 100, and when the mobile robot moves in the front and rear directions, if a high-low undulating road surface is encountered, the chassis 200 may be kept substantially balanced by swinging the lever plate 20 around the first axis L1 left and right relative to the chassis 200, without swinging left and right, so that the mobile robot may stably pass the undulating road surface, and the chassis may be kept at the same height when no load and heavy load are carried out, so as to realize smooth docking.
For example, when the travelling wheel travels in the front-rear direction, the extending direction of the second axis L2 and the extending direction of the third axis L3 are perpendicular to the extending direction of the first axis L1.
The lever plate 20 swings left and right about a first axis L1 extending in the front-rear direction, the first traveling wheel 50 rotates about a second axis L2 extending in the left-right direction, and the second traveling wheel 60 rotates about a third axis L3 extending in the left-right direction, so that the mobile robot travels in the front-rear direction.
In some embodiments, the mobile robot suspension 100 includes a mounting base plate 10 with a bearing mount 40 disposed on the mounting base plate 10. The lever plate 20 is rotatably mounted on the bearing housing 40 through a rotation shaft 30, and the axis of the rotation shaft 30 is a first axis L1. I.e., the axis of the rotary shaft 30 extends in the front-rear direction. The bearing housing 40 and the mounting base plate 10 may be mounted on the chassis 200.
The mounting base plate 10 plays a role in supporting and fixing the whole suspension mechanism 100, so that the suspension mechanism 100 is formed into a modularized whole, thereby facilitating transportation and quick installation. The bearing seat 40 plays a limiting role on the rotating shaft 30 on one hand, and on the other hand, the bearing seat 40 is positioned between the mounting bottom plate 10 and the chassis 200, and the height of the bearing seat 40 enables a certain avoiding gap to be formed between the mounting bottom plate 10 and the chassis 200, so that interference with the chassis 200 in the left-right swinging process of the lever plate 20 is prevented.
Illustratively, the mounting base plate 10 is provided with a relief hole 11, and the lever plate 20 is positioned in the relief hole 11. The lever plate 20 is retracted through the retraction hole 11 during the left-right pivoting of the lever plate 20 about the pivot shaft 30 relative to the mounting base plate 10.
In some embodiments, the first road wheel 50 is a drive wheel and the second road wheel 60 is a driven wheel. For example, the first traveling wheel 50 may be driven by a motor to travel the second traveling wheel 60 together.
In some embodiments, the shaft 30 is disposed closer to the first road wheel 50 than the second road wheel 60. Referring to fig. 2, the horizontal length d1 between the shaft center of the rotating shaft 30 and the connection point of the first traveling wheel 50 with the lever plate 20 is smaller than the horizontal length d2 between the shaft center of the rotating shaft 30 and the connection point of the second traveling wheel 60 with the lever plate 20. I.e. the spindle 30 is closer to the driving wheel.
According to the lever balance principle, since the first traveling wheel 50 is a driving wheel, traveling is mainly realized by means of friction force between the first traveling wheel 50 and the ground, the closer the rotating shaft 30 is to the first traveling wheel 50, the smaller the moment arm between the first traveling wheel 50 and the lever supporting point is, so that moment between the first traveling wheel 50 and the second traveling wheel 60 can be balanced, and slipping phenomenon in the starting or accelerating process of the first traveling wheel 50 is prevented.
In some embodiments, the first traveling wheel 50 is rotatably provided on the lever plate 20 about a fourth axis L4 extending in the up-down direction; the second traveling wheel 60 is rotatably provided on the lever plate 20 about a fifth axis L5 extending in the up-down direction, thereby realizing steering during traveling.
For example, the first traveling wheel 50 is rotatably connected to the left end portion of the lever plate 20 by a first vertical shaft having an axis of the fourth axis L4. The second traveling wheel 60 is rotatably connected to the right end portion of the lever plate 20 by a second vertical shaft having a fifth axis L5.
The first traveling wheel 50 is connected with an outer gear ring, which is connected with a steering motor, and the outer gear ring is driven to rotate by the steering motor to realize rotation of the first traveling wheel 50 about a fourth axis L4 extending in the up-down direction. The first running wheel 60 may be, for example, a universal wheel.
The embodiment of the application also provides a mobile robot, which comprises: chassis 200, front suspension 101 disposed at the front of the chassis, and rear suspension 102 disposed at the rear of chassis 200, wherein front suspension 101 and rear suspension 102 are mobile robot suspension 100 as described in any of the embodiments above.
In the process of moving the mobile robot in the front-rear direction, if a road surface with high and low fluctuation is encountered, the lever plate 20 can swing left and right relative to the chassis 200 around the first axis L1, so that the chassis 200 is basically balanced and does not shake left and right, the mobile robot can stably pass through the road surface with fluctuation, and the chassis can keep the same height in no-load and heavy load so as to realize smooth butt joint.
In some embodiments. The rotation shaft 30 of the front suspension mechanism 101 and the rotation shaft 30 of the rear suspension mechanism 102 are arranged in a staggered manner in the left-right direction. That is, the axis of the rotation shaft 30 of the front suspension mechanism 101 is not collinear with the axis of the rotation shaft 30 of the rear suspension mechanism 102. By the structure, the mobile robot can be prevented from tilting to one side, and stability in the walking process is further improved.
In some embodiments. The first road wheel 50 of the front suspension mechanism 101 is disposed diagonally to the first road wheel 50 of the rear suspension mechanism 102, and the second road wheel 60 of the front suspension mechanism 101 is disposed diagonally to the second road wheel 60 of the rear suspension mechanism 102.
The first running wheel 50 of the front suspension mechanism 101 being diagonally arranged with respect to the first running wheel 50 of the rear suspension mechanism 102 means that the first running wheel 50 of the front suspension mechanism 101 is not on the same side as the first running wheel 50 of the rear suspension mechanism 102, e.g. the first running wheel 50 of the front suspension mechanism 101 is located on the left side of the front of the chassis 200 and the first running wheel 50 of the rear suspension mechanism 102 is located on the right side of the rear of the chassis 200. Similarly, the diagonal placement of the second road wheel 60 of the front suspension 101 with the second road wheel 60 of the rear suspension 102 means that the second road wheel 60 of the front suspension 101 is not on the same side as the second road wheel 60 of the rear suspension 102, e.g., the second road wheel 60 of the front suspension 101 is on the right side of the front of the chassis 200 and the second road wheel 60 of the rear suspension 102 is on the left side of the rear of the chassis 200.
The first traveling wheel 50 and the second traveling wheel 60 which are diagonally arranged are adopted, so that the power balance of the left side and the right side of the vehicle body can be ensured when the mobile robot walks, and the vehicle body is prevented from deviating from a motion track when the mobile robot walks; in addition, the in-situ rotation action of the mobile robot and the transverse and other angle actions can be realized.
The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application, but various modifications and variations can be made to the present application by those skilled in the art. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
