需要说明的是,术语“第一”、“第二”仅用于描述目的,而不能理解为指示或暗示相对重要性或者隐含指明所指示的技术特征的数量。由此,限定有“第一”、“第二”的特征可以明示或者隐含地包括一个或者更多个该特征。进一步地,在本发明的描述中,除非另有说明,“多个”的含义是两个或两个以上。
下面结合图1-图8对根据本发明实施例的扫地机器人100进行详细描述,该扫地机器人100可用于对室内的地面进行清洁,但不限于此。
根据本发明实施例的扫地机器人100可以包括机器人本体1和充电座2,机器人本体1可以包括壳体、行走轮、驱动电机、毛刷等部件。
壳体可以形成为圆形或大体方形,壳体可以是塑料壳体。壳体的前侧可以设置有保险杠,保险杠与壳体之间可以设置弹簧,从而在壳体碰撞到障碍物后该弹簧能够缓冲障碍物施加给机器人本体1的碰撞力,进而保护机器人本体1。
壳体内可以设置有集尘杯,集尘杯可以具有至少一层过滤结构,壳体的底面23上设置有灰尘吸入口,灰尘吸入口可以连通集尘杯,在集尘杯的后侧,可以布置用于产生
负压的吸尘电机,在吸尘电机的作用下,灰尘能够从灰尘吸入口被吸入到集尘杯内,用户在使用扫地机器人100一定时间后,可以将集尘杯从机器人本体1内取出并倒掉灰尘,同时用户还可以定期对集尘杯以及过滤结构进行清洗。
集尘杯的两侧可以各设置一个行走轮,每个行走轮可以分别由一个单独的驱动电机驱动,在两个行走轮中间位置的前侧,还可以设置一个具有支撑以及转向功能的万向轮,但不限于此。
毛刷可以设置在壳体的底部且位于两个行走轮的前侧,毛刷可由单独的电机驱动旋转,毛刷能够将壳体底部以及壳体两侧的灰尘汇聚到灰尘吸入口处,从而使得灰尘能够更高效地被吸入到集尘杯内。
当然,应当理解的是,上述关于机器人本体1的构造均已为本领域的普通技术人员所熟知,上述的说明仅是示意性的,不能理解为是对根据本发明实施例的机器人本体1的一种限制。
应当理解的是,机器人本体1上还设置有第一充电端子(未示出),该第一充电端子可与充电座2上设置的第二充电端子21匹配,从而由充电座2向机器人本体1进行充电。
结合图1和图2所示,充电座2固定在地面200上方且充电座2的底面23与地面200间隔开,换言之,充电座2相比其正下方的地面200而言是悬空设置的,即充电座2的底面23与其正下方的地面200是彼此间隔开的。需要说明的是,这里的地面200可以理解为是充电座2下方的地板的上表面、瓷砖的上表面,当然还可以是地毯的上表面,但不限于此。
由此,由于充电座2的底面23与地面200是间隔开的,因此机器人能够对充电座2下方的地面200进行清洁。例如,充电座2与地面200之间的间距应当至少满足可以使得边刷能够在充电座2与地面200之间的竖向空间内自由旋转,从而将位于充电座2下面的地面200上的灰尘清扫干净。
作为优选的实施方式,充电座2的底面23与地面200之间的距离不小于机器人本体1的高度。这里,需要说明的是,机器人本体1的高度可以理解为是在机器人本体1静置在地面200上时,机器人本体1的顶面与地面200之间的竖向距离。更优选地,充电座2的底面23与地面200之间的距离要大于机器人本体1的高度。
这样,机器人本体1能够整体运动到充电座2的下方,从而充分对充电座2下方的地面200进行有效清洁。而且,由于充电座2相对地面200悬空布置,因此机器人本体1在运动至靠近充电座2的区域时也不用刻意避让充电座2,从而也能对充电座2周围的地面200进行有效清洁。
如图1-图3且结合图4所示,充电座2上构造有收容部24,该收容部24用于收容机器人本体1(如图3所示),并且在机器人本体1搁置在收容部24内后第一充电端子与第二充电端子21接触以形成电连接,从而充电座2可对机器人本体1进行充电。
这样,在机器人本体1的电量较低时,机器人本体1可向用户发出警示信号,例如以警示灯的形式向用户传递电量低的信息,用户可将机器人本体1放置在收容部24内,从而使得两个充电端子对接以形成电连接,进而由充电座2向机器人本体1进行充电。
根据本发明实施例的扫地机器人100,通过将充电座2相对地面200悬空设置,使得扫地机器人100的边刷可以对充电座2下面的地面200进行清洁或者机器人本体1可以直接运动到充电座2下面的地面200进行清洁,从而消除了扫地机器人100的部分清扫盲区,强化了扫地机器人100的清扫功能,提高了清扫效果。
同时,在给机器人本体1进行充电时,机器人本体1可以位于收容部24内,即机器人本体1将位于地面200上方,从而对于其它扫地机器人或者其它形式的吸尘器而言,仍然可以对充电座2下方的地面200进行有效清洁,而不会由于扫地机器人100搁置在地面200上而导致无法对其下方的地面进行清扫。
在本发明的一些实施例中,充电座2可以直接贴附在与地面200正交的墙壁300上。例如,一般地,墙壁300上设置有插座310,充电座2适于设在该插座310上并与插座310电连接。具体地,充电座2上可以设置有插脚,插脚可以***到插座310的插孔内,充电座2能够通过插脚与插座310的插接配合而定位在墙壁300上,由此通过插脚即可实现对充电座2的定位,同时也实现了与插座310的电连接,结构简单,维护方便。
但是,应当理解的是,充电座2与墙壁300的配合方式并不限于上述的插接配合方式,例如,充电座2也可以通过螺栓或螺钉而直接紧固在墙壁300上,或者直接紧固在插座310上。当然,墙壁300上或者插座310上也可以设置单独的支架,充电座2也可以固定在支架上,只要保证充电座2与正下方的地面200间隔开即可。
在本发明的一些实施例中,充电座2上设置有回航发射装置22,机器人本体1上设置有与回航发射装置22匹配的回航接收装置。应当理解的是,回航发射装置22和回航接收装置的具体构造和工作原理均已为现有技术,且已广泛应用到现有的扫地机器人与充电座上,因此这里对回航发射装置22以及回航接收装置不作特殊说明或限定。
通过设置回航发射装置22和回航接收装置,使得机器人本体1在电量较低时能够自动寻找充电座2并返回充电座2进行充电。
在本发明的一些实施例中,第二充电端子21的至少一部分(例如,第一子充电片211)构造为向内伸入到收容部24内的充电片,机器人本体1在搁置在收容部24内后,机器人本体1上的第一充电端子可以与该部分接触并形成电连接,从而充电座2能够向机器人本
体1进行充电。该充电片可以是金属弹片,由此对接方便,且能够保证充电过程中的可靠接触。
或者,在另一些实施例中,如图4且结合图6所示,第二充电端子21构造为充电片,充电片的第一端(例如,下端)从充电座2的底面向下延伸出以构成第二子充电片212且充电片的第二端(例如,上端)向内伸入到收容部24内以构成第一子充电片211。换言之,相比于上述实施例而言,该实施例中的第二充电端子21的其中一部分向内伸入收容部24内以形成第一子充电片211,另一部分可以从充电座2的底面向下延伸超出底面23以形成第二子充电片212。
由此,用户一方面可以直接将机器人本体1搁置在收容部24内,使得机器人本体1上的第一充电端子与第二充电端子21的伸入到收容部24内的部分211接触以形成电连接,从而对机器人本体1进行充电。
同时,机器人本体1也可以在回航发射装置22的引导下,自行运动到充电座2下方,使得机器人本体1上的第一充电端子能够与第二充电端子21的向下伸出其底面23的部分212接触并形成电连接,从而对机器人本体1进行充电。
简言之,该实施例中的机器人本体1既可以通过用户手动取放机器人本体1进行充电,当然机器人本体1也可以通过自动回航而实现自动充电过程,丰富了充电方式,提高了扫地机器人100的实用性。
在本发明的一些实施例中,如图4所示,充电座2可以包括底板部26、第一侧板部25和第二侧板部27,第一侧板部25和第二侧板部27分别设置在底板部26的前侧和后侧,第一侧板部25和第二侧板部27彼此相对且可平行设置,第一侧板部25、第二侧板部27和底板部26共同限定出上述的收容部24,收容部24可以是一个向上、向左、向右敞开的空间,但不限于此。
在本发明的一些实施例中,如上所述,机器人本体1的一种充电方式是搁置在收容部24内(如图3所示),此时机器人本体1和充电座2的重量可能全部由充电座2进行承载,为了提高充电座2的承载能力,防止充电座2掉落甚至损坏,作为优选的实施方式,如图7和图8所示,充电座2上可以设置有适于支撑充电座2的支撑结构3,该支撑结构3可以在机器人本体1搁置在收容部24内后支撑在地面200上,从而提高充电座2的稳定性。
例如,支撑结构3相对充电座2可上下移动,在机器人本体1向下搁置在收容部24内期间,机器人本体1适于抵靠支撑结构3并驱动支撑结构3向下运动直至支撑结构3的底面支撑在地面200上。
具体而言,支撑结构3可以为多组,每组支撑结构3可以包括支撑杆31和弹簧32,弹簧32套在支撑杆31上,支撑杆31的外周面上可以设置有环形凸缘311,弹簧32的上端弹
性地抵压在环形凸缘311上且弹簧32的下端可以弹性地抵压充电座2内的止抵面33上,弹簧32处于常压缩状态,从而弹簧32能够提供给支撑杆31一个向上的弹力,使得支撑杆31在未受到其它外力的情况下,通过弹簧的推抵作用,支撑杆31的上端可伸入到收容部24内,在用户将机器人本体1搁置在收容部24内期间,如图7和图8所示,机器人本体1将抵靠在支撑杆31的上端并推抵支撑杆31向下运动直至支撑杆31的底面支撑在地面上,从而支撑杆31能够至少部分分担机器人本体1的重力,提高充电座2的稳定性。
为了方便用户提拉机器人本体1,机器人本体1上可以设置有提手11,该提手11可以设置在机器人本体1的壳体上,例如壳体上可以设置有容纳槽,提手11可以收纳在容纳槽内,该提手11相对机器人本体1可先抽拉然后进行翻转,从而方便用户通过该提手11提拉机器人本体1。
下面对根据本发明实施例的用于扫地机器人100的充电座2进行详细描述,该充电座2用于向扫地机器人100的机器人本体1进行充电。
充电座2固定在地面200上方且充电座2的底面23与地面200间隔开,换言之,充电座2相比其正下方的地面200而言是悬空设置的,即充电座2的底面23与其正下方的地面200是彼此间隔开的。需要说明的是,这里的地面200可以理解为是充电座2下方的地板的上表面、瓷砖的上表面,当然还可以是地毯的上表面,但不限于此。
由此,由于充电座2的底面23与地面200是间隔开的,因此机器人能够对充电座2下方的地面200进行清洁。例如,充电座2与地面200之间的间距应当至少满足可以使得边刷能够在充电座2与地面200之间的竖向空间内自由旋转,从而将位于充电座2下面的地面200上的灰尘清扫干净。
作为优选的实施方式,充电座2的底面23与地面200之间的距离不小于机器人本体1的高度。这里,需要说明的是,机器人本体1的高度可以理解为是在机器人本体1静置在地面200上时,机器人本体1的顶面与地面200之间的竖向距离。更优选地,充电座2的底面23与地面200之间的距离要大于机器人本体1的高度。
这样,机器人本体1能够整体运动到充电座2的下方,从而充分对充电座2下方的地面200进行有效清洁。而且,由于充电座2相对地面200悬空布置,因此机器人本体1在运动至靠近充电座2的区域时也不用刻意避让充电座2,从而也能对充电座2周围的地面200进行有效清洁。
如图1-图3且结合图4所示,充电座2上构造有收容部24,该收容部24用于收容机器人本体1(如图3所示),充电座2上可以设置有充电端子(即,第二充电端子21),充电座2上的充电端子适于与机器人本体1上的充电端子(即第一充电端子)匹配。优选地,
在机器人本体1搁置在收容部24内后,充电座2上的充电端子可与机器人本体1上的充电端子接触并形成电连接,从而充电座2可对机器人本体1进行充电。
在本发明的一些实施例中,充电座2上的充电端子(即,第二充电端子21)的至少一部分(例如,第一子充电片211)构造为向内伸入到收容部24内的充电片。优选地,机器人本体1在搁置在收容部24内后,机器人本体1上的充电端子可以与该部分接触并形成电连接,从而充电座2能够向机器人本体1进行充电。该充电片可以是金属弹片,由此对接方便,且能够保证充电过程中的可靠接触。
或者,如图4所示,在一些实施例中,充电座2上的充电端子(即,第二充电端子21)构造为充电片,充电片的第一端(例如,下端)从充电座2的底面向下延伸出以构成第二子充电片212且充电片的第二端(例如,上端)向内伸入到收容部24内以构成第一子充电片211。换言之,相比于上述实施例而言,该实施例中的充电座2上的充电端子的其中一部分向内伸入收容部24内以形成第一子充电片211,另一部分可以从充电座2的底面向下延伸超出底面23以形成第二子充电片212。
由此,用户一方面可以直接将机器人本体1搁置在收容部24内,使得机器人本体1上的充电端子与充电座2上的充电端子的伸入到收容部24内的部分211接触以形成电连接,从而对机器人本体1进行充电。
同时,机器人本体1也可以在回航发射装置22的引导下,自行运动到充电座2下方,使得机器人本体1上的充电端子能够与充电座2上的充电端子的向下伸出其底面23的部分212接触并形成电连接,从而对机器人本体1进行充电。
在本发明的一些实施例中,充电座2可以直接贴附在与地面200正交的墙壁300上。例如,一般地,墙壁300上设置有插座310,充电座2适于设在该插座310上并与插座310电连接。具体地,充电座2上可以设置有插脚,插脚可以***到插座310的插孔内,充电座2能够通过插脚与插座310的插接配合而定位在墙壁300上,由此通过插脚即可实现对充电座2的定位,同时也实现了与插座310的电连接,结构简单,维护方便。
但是,应当理解的是,充电座2与墙壁300的配合方式并不限于上述的插接配合方式,例如,充电座2也可以通过螺栓或螺钉而直接紧固在墙壁300上,或者直接紧固在插座310上。当然,墙壁300上或者插座310上也可以设置单独的支架,充电座2也可以固定在支架上,只要保证充电座2与正下方的地面200间隔开即可。
在本发明的一些实施例中,充电座2上设置有回航发射装置22,机器人本体1上设置有与回航发射装置22匹配的回航接收装置。应当理解的是,回航发射装置22和回航接收装置的具体构造和工作原理均已为现有技术,且已广泛应用到现有的扫地机器人与充电座上,因此这里对回航发射装置22以及回航接收装置不作特殊说明或限定。
