The following describes the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the application with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in connection with fig. 1-5, the present application provides a robot 100.

In some embodiments, robot 100 is used to implement a predetermined function. In particular, the robot 100 may be configured to perform movement, carrying, gripping, flying, cleaning, inspection, or other predetermined functions. In some embodiments, the robot 100 is a wheel-foot robot 100 that can be moved in different ways to accommodate different road conditions.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 2 and 3, the robot 100 utilizes a pluggable battery module 900a as a power supply. In some embodiments, the robot 100 includes a battery holder 20, the battery holder 20 for receiving a pluggable battery module 900a. Further, the robot 100 includes at least two battery holders 20, so that the robot 100 can be loaded with at least two pluggable battery modules 900a, when one of the battery modules 900a has low power, the battery module 900a can be taken out of the battery holder 20 for charging, and the other battery module 900a can remain in the other battery holder 20 and provide power for the electric devices of the robot 100.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 2 and 3, at least two battery holders 20 are disposed side-by-side. Further, the robot 100 includes a substrate 101. The battery holder 20 is mounted on the substrate 101. The substrate 101 supports the plurality of battery holders 20. In some embodiments, the robot 100 further includes a battery module 900b fixedly disposed, and the fixed battery module 900b may also provide power to the electrical devices of the robot 100, thereby improving the battery capacity of the robot 100. Further, the power of the pluggable battery module 900a may be transferred to the fixed battery module 900b, and the fixed battery module 900b may also be used for power storage during kinetic energy recovery. In some embodiments, the fixedly disposed battery module 900b is mounted on the substrate 101. Further, the fixedly disposed battery module 900b is located between two adjacent battery holders 20.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 1 and 2, the robot 100 further includes a housing 102, the housing 102 for providing enclosure protection. The battery holder 20 is at least partially housed within the housing 102. In one embodiment, the ports of the battery holder 20 are flush with the surface of the housing 102 to facilitate removal of the battery module 900a and to provide better protection for the battery module 900 a.

As shown in fig. 6 to 11, the present application further provides a battery holder 20.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 6 to 8, the battery holder 20 includes: the device comprises a base 30, a locking piece 40, a transmission frame 50 and a trigger piece 60. The base 30 is provided with a chamber 31, and the base 30 is also provided with a pick-and-place port 32 communicated with the chamber 31. At least two latch members 40 are disposed along opposite sides of the housing 30. The latch 40 has a locked position and an unlocked position relative to the housing 30. The locking element 40 penetrates into the chamber 31 to a greater extent in the locked position than in the unlocked position. The transmission frame 50 is movably connected to the base 30, and a plurality of movable ends of the transmission frame 50 and at least two locking pieces 40 form a transmission fit capable of causing the locking pieces 40 to move from the locking position to the unlocking position when the transmission frame 50 moves along a predetermined direction. The trigger 60 is movably connected to the base 30. The trigger 60 is configured to provide a transfer fit between the trigger 60 and the other movable end of the drive housing 50 such that the drive housing 50 is movable in a predetermined direction.

Specifically, the battery module 900a enters and exits the chamber 31 from the access port 32. The outer circumference of the battery module 900a is provided with a limit structure. Before the battery module 900a enters the chamber 31, the locking members 40 are in the locking position, the trigger member 60 acts and drives the transmission frame 50 to move along the preset direction, and when the transmission frame 50 moves along the preset direction relative to the base 30, the plurality of locking members 40 are moved from the locking position to the unlocking position, so that the battery module 900a can pass through any cross section of the chamber 31 and then be installed in place. After the latch 40 is reset to the locked position, the latch 40 cooperates with the limiting structure of the battery module 900a to limit the battery module 900a from exiting the chamber 31. Because the number of the locking pieces 40 is at least two, and the locking pieces 40 are arranged on the two opposite sides of the base 30, the battery module 900a is locked by the locking pieces 40 from different angles, so that the battery module 900a can be reliably limited in the cavity 31, and the battery module 900a is effectively prevented from shaking in the cavity 31 or being accidentally separated from the cavity 31 due to the fact that the battery module 900a is only locked on one side. Meanwhile, the action of the trigger piece 60 can drive the locking pieces 40 at two sides of the seat body 30 to simultaneously withdraw from the cavity 31, so that the stability of the battery module 900a is improved, and meanwhile, complicated contact operation can be avoided, thereby being beneficial to ensuring the convenience in use of the battery seat 20.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 5, the battery module 900a spacing structure is a side groove 901. The latch 40, when inserted into the side groove 901, can limit the movement of the battery module 900a in the direction of withdrawing the chamber 31 by abutting against the inner surface of the side groove 901.

In some embodiments, the battery module 900a retention feature is a side tab. After the battery module 900a is mounted in place, the latch 40 abuts against the surface of the side projection facing away from the bottom side of the chamber 31, so that the battery module 900a can be restricted from moving in the direction of exiting the chamber 31.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 8 and 11, the base 30 is provided with a slot 33. The locking member 40 is slidably inserted into the slot 33 and slidably disposed between the locking position and the unlocking position. Specifically, the inner wall surface of the slot 33 defines the movable range of the latch 40, and plays a sliding guiding role on the latch 40, so that the latch 40 can be switched between the locking position and the unlocking position by sliding in the slot 33.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 6 and 7, the base 30 has a half-open structure, and the sliding direction of the latch 40 is perpendicular to the depth direction of the cavity 31, so that the latch 40 can generate a larger horizontal limiting area for the battery module 900a at a smaller sliding distance.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 8 and 10, the base 30 includes a main box 34 and a side tube 35 connected to the outside of the main box 34, the main box 34 forming a boundary of the chamber 31. The slot 33 extends through the main casing 34 and the side cylinder 35, and the longitudinal direction of the side cylinder 35 is perpendicular to the depth direction of the chamber 31. Specifically, since the length direction of the side tube 35 is perpendicular to the inner wall surface of the chamber 31, the latch member 40 has a sufficient movable range, and the latch member 40 can completely withdraw from the chamber 31 in the unlocking position, so that the battery module 900a can be more conveniently taken out, and the wall thickness requirement of the main box 34 is reduced, thereby contributing to saving the material of the seat 30.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 8 and 10, the battery holder 20 further includes a first elastic member 45. The first elastic member 45 is connected between the latch member 40 and the base 30, and the first elastic member 45 transmits a first restoring elastic force to the latch member 40 in the direction of the unlock position and the lock position. Specifically, since the direction of the first restoring elastic force is the same as the direction pointing to the locking position along the unlocking position, the first elastic member 45 can automatically restore the latch member 40 to the locking position. After the battery module 900a is placed in the cavity 31, the triggering piece 60 is released, and the locking piece 40 loses the driving force transmitted by the transmission frame 50 and then moves to the locking position under the action of the first reset elastic force, so that the locking piece automatically cooperates with the limiting structure of the battery module 900a, and the battery module 900a is automatically limited in the cavity 31.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 8 and 9, the battery holder 20 further includes a blocking piece 39, and the blocking piece 39 is connected to the outer side of the side tube 35. The first elastic member 45 is elastically abutted against the blocking piece 39 between the locking members 40. The end of the latch 40 facing away from the chamber 31 abuts against the first resilient member 45. Thus, the first elastic member 45 can automatically move the latch member 40 to the locking position in a direction deeper into the chamber 31. More specifically, the flap 39 is attached to the main tank 34 by fasteners 42.

Further, as shown in fig. 8 and 11, the end of the latch member 40 near the center of the chamber 31 is provided with an inner inclined surface 43, and the inner inclined surface 43 is inclined toward the bottom side of the chamber 31 in a direction from the inner surface of the chamber 31 toward the center of the chamber 31. In the process of placing the battery module 900a into the cavity 31, when the battery module 900a abuts against the inner inclined surface 43, the battery module 900a generates pushing pressure on the latch member 40, one component of the pushing pressure is opposite to the direction of the first restoring elastic force, and when the component is greater than the first restoring elastic force, the latch member 40 compresses the first elastic member 45 and pushes the first elastic member to the unlocking position, so that the battery module 900a can smoothly enter the cavity 31, the operation of the trigger member 60 is avoided, and the convenience in use of the battery holder 20 is improved.

Specifically, the number of the locking members 40 on both sides of the base 30 may be equal or unequal.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 6, the drive rack 50 is rotatably coupled to the housing 30. The movable ends of the transmission frame 50 and the at least two locking pieces 40 form a transmission fit which can lead the locking pieces 40 to move from the locking position to the unlocking position when the transmission frame 50 rotates along a preset direction. The trigger 60 forms a transfer fit between the trigger 60 and the other movable end of the drive housing 50 that causes rotation of the drive housing 50 in a predetermined direction. Specifically, since the transmission frame 50 is rotatably connected to the base 30, when the trigger member 60 acts on the movable end of the transmission frame 50, the transmission frame 50 can be rotated relative to the base 30. The other movable end of the transmission frame 50 can form a transmission function to the locking piece 40 while rotating relative to the base 30, so that the transmission function can be formed with the locking piece 40. In one embodiment, trigger 60 is swung downwardly by depressing the movable end of drive bracket 50, at which point drive bracket 50 swings upwardly adjacent the movable end of latch 40.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 6 and 9, the drive rack 50 includes a pry bar 51 and a link 52. A pry bar 51 is rotatably connected to the outside of both sides of the base 30. The link 52 is connected to the pry bar 51, and a transmission fit is formed between the pry bar 51 and the at least one latch 40, which is capable of causing the latch 40 to move from the latched position to the unlatched position. The trigger 60 and the link 52 form a transfer fit therebetween that causes the pry bar 51 to rotate in a predetermined direction. Specifically, since the latch 40 is disposed at two sides of the base 30, and the pry bar 51 is disposed outside two sides of the base 30, the pry bar 51 can be used to transmit driving force to the latch 40 at different sides, so that the latch 40 can be withdrawn from the locking position to the unlocking position. The trigger 60 is in transmission engagement with the pry bar 51 by the link 52, and the length and direction of the link 52 are set according to the positional relationship between the trigger 60 and the pry bar 51. In one embodiment, the link 52 is connected to an end of the pry bar 51. In one embodiment, the pry bar 51 and the connecting rod 52 are formed by bending the same bar, so that the pry bar 51 and the connecting rod 52 may be integrally disposed.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 6 and 9, one movable end of the driving frame 50 forms a transmission fit with the latch member 40, the other movable end of the driving frame 50 forms a transmission fit with the trigger member 60, and the driving frame 50 is located between the two movable ends with respect to the rotation axis of the base 30. Specifically, the rotation axis of the transmission frame 50 located between the two movable ends can facilitate controlling the length of the pry bar 51 and reducing the requirement for the movement range of the trigger piece 60 with respect to the case where the rotation axis is located outside the connection line of the two movable ends. By controlling the distance between the two movable ends relative to the rotation axis, the acting force between the trigger piece 60 and the transmission frame 50 is close to the transmission acting force between the transmission frame 50 and the locking piece 40, so that damage to the transmission part between the locking piece 40 and the transmission frame 50 caused by improper force application is avoided, and the condition that the trigger piece 60 needs larger force to drive the transmission frame 50 to rotate due to the lever problem is avoided. More specifically, the case where the rotation axis is outside the line connecting the two movable ends, it is understood that one of the movable ends of the transmission frame 50 is located between the other movable end and the rotation axis.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 6, one end of the link 52 is connected to one pry bar 51, the other end of the link 52 is connected to the other pry bar 51, and the two pry bars 51 are respectively located on two sides of the base 30. Specifically, the trigger piece 60 and the single connecting rod 52 form a transmission fit, and the single connecting rod 52 drives the two prying bars 51 to rotate, so that the transmission structure between the trigger piece 60 and the connecting rod 52 can be simplified, the moving synchronism of the two prying bars 51 can be improved, the locking pieces 40 on two sides of the base 30 can synchronously withdraw from the cavity 31, and the battery module 900a can be conveniently and rapidly taken out.

In other embodiments, the pry bars 51 on both sides of the base 30 may be connected to separate connecting rods 52, and the connection to the different pry bars 51 may be disposed side by side in the axial direction. Since the end of one link 52 is disposed adjacent to the end of the other link 52, the trigger 60 can be brought into contact with both links 52 at the same time, and thus the two pry bars 51 can be rotated synchronously with respect to the base 30.

In some embodiments, a transfer fit is formed between the pry bar 51 and one of the latch members 40 that causes the latch member 40 to move from the latched position to the unlatched position. In other embodiments, when a plurality of locking members 40 are provided on one side of the base 30, a single pry bar 51 may be used to drive the plurality of locking members 40 on the same side of the base 30 from the locked position to the unlocked position.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 6, the trigger 60 may be in a transmission fit with the pry bar 51 through an abutting connection, and when the trigger 60 moves relative to the base 30, the trigger 60 can abut against the link 52 to rotate the link 52 and the pry bar 51 relative to the base 30. In other embodiments, the link 52 and the trigger 60 may be in a nested relationship, such that the trigger 60 can rotate the link 52 and the pry bar 51. In other embodiments, the transmission rack 50 may be slidably coupled to the base 30. After the trigger 60 acts on a movable end of the transmission frame 50, the transmission frame 50 integrally slides relative to the base 30. The other movable end of the transmission frame 50 can form a transmission function to the locking member 40 when moving relative to the base 30.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 6 to 9, the base 30 further includes a support 36 connected to one side of the main box 34, and the first pin member 53 is disposed through the pry bar 51 and connected to the support 36, and the pry bar 51 is rotatably disposed around the first pin member 53, so that the pry bar 51 can rotate relative to the base 30.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 6, the lower end surface of trigger 60 abuts link 52. Specifically, by transmitting a pressing force to the trigger 60, the lower end surface of the trigger 60 pushes the link 52, and the crow bar 51 can be rotated about the rotation axis with respect to the base 30. Under the leverage of the pry bar 51, the downward force of the trigger 60 against the link 52 is transmitted to the latch 40 and causes the latch 40 to withdraw from the cavity 31. More specifically, the lower end surface of the trigger 60 is the surface of the trigger 60 near the bottom side of the chamber 31.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 4 and 6, trigger 60 is slidably coupled to housing 30. Specifically, when the trigger 60 slides relative to the base 30, the trigger 60 abuts against the transmission frame 50, thereby forming a transmission engagement that enables the transmission frame 50 to rotate. In one embodiment, when trigger 60 is downwardly urged against link 52, the end of pry bar 51 adjacent link 52 swings downwardly and the end of pry bar 51 adjacent latch 40 swings upwardly. In other embodiments, trigger 60 is rotatably coupled to housing 30. Specifically, the trigger 60 forms a cam structure, and when one end of the trigger 60 swings relative to the base 30, one side of the end of the trigger 60 abuts against the transmission frame 50, thereby forming a transmission fit that enables the transmission frame 50 to rotate. More specifically, the path of movement of trigger 60 approximates a straight line segment because the arc of rotation of trigger 60 is small.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 1 and 4, the robot 100 further includes a button 103 movably inserted in the housing 102, and a transmission fit is formed between the button 103 and the trigger 60. In one embodiment, when the button 103 is pressed, the button 103 pushes inwardly against the trigger 60, and then the trigger 60 pushes against the drive frame 50. Specifically, by providing the trigger 60, the extension length of the button 103 is advantageously reduced, facilitating the installation of the battery holder 20.

In other embodiments, the trigger 60 is movably disposed through the housing 102, and an end surface of the trigger 60 remote from the transmission frame 50 is exposed to the housing 102. Specifically, since the trigger 60 is directly exposed to the housing 102, the trigger 60 can be directly operated, and thus the use of the button 103 can be avoided, which is advantageous in simplifying the structure of the robot 100.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 4 and 6, the base 30 further includes a support cover 37 coupled to the main box 34. The support cover 37 cooperates with the outer wall of the main casing 34 to define the sliding direction and sliding range of the trigger 60 relative to the base 30. Specifically, the support cover 37 is connected to the main box 34 by fasteners 42. More specifically, the fastener 42 is a screw.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 8 and 10, the battery holder 20 further includes a pressing block 70 movably connected to the transmission frame 50. The end of the pressing block 70 adjacent to the latch 40 is provided with a first inclined surface 71. The first inclined surface 71 is inclined in a direction approaching the seat body 30 in a direction from the pressing block 70 toward the latch 40. The latch 40 is provided with a second inclined surface 44, and the second inclined surface 44 is inclined in a direction away from the housing 30 in a direction from the latch 40 toward the pressing block 70. The second inclined surface 44 abuts against the first inclined surface 71. Specifically, when the transmission frame 50 is connected to the pressing block 70 and the pressing block 70 is moved in a direction from the pressing block 70 toward the latch 40, a pressure effect is generated between the second inclined surface 44 and the first inclined surface 71. In the case where the second inclined surface 44 is parallel or nearly parallel to the first inclined surface 71, the first inclined surface 71 generates a directional component force to the latch 40, which is directed away from the base 30 and in the same direction as the direction from the locked position to the unlocked position, so that the latch 40 is moved from the locked position to the unlocked position, thereby forming a transmission engagement capable of causing the latch 40 to move from the locked position to the unlocked position when the transmission frame 50 moves in a predetermined direction.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 6 and 9, the end of the pry bar 51 near the pressing block 70 is provided with a first waist-shaped hole 511, and the length direction of the first waist-shaped hole 511 is parallel to the length direction of the pry bar 51. The second pin member 54 is connected to the pressing block 70, and the second pin member 54 is inserted into the first waist-shaped hole 511. When the pry bar 51 swings near one end of the pressing block 70, the pry bar 51 pushes the second pin shaft member 54 through the inner wall of the first waist-shaped hole 511, so that the pressing block 70 slides relative to the base 30. Specifically, the rod portion of the second pin member 54 is screwed to the pressing block 70 after passing through the first waist-shaped hole 511. The outer diameter of the end portion of the second pin member 54 is greater than the width of the first waist-shaped aperture 511.

In other embodiments, the battery holder 20 is provided with a traction rope and a guide wheel with a groove at the edge outside the holder body 30, and the traction rope is hung on the guide wheel to maintain the traction rope in a position. The pulling rope is connected to the locking member 40, so that the pulling rope can drive the locking member 40 to move between the locking position and the unlocking position. The movable end of the transmission member, which is close to the locking member 40, is connected to the traction rope, and the locking member 40 is driven to move by the traction rope, so that a transmission fit capable of causing the locking member 40 to move from the locking position to the unlocking position when the transmission frame 50 moves along a preset direction is formed. More specifically, the end of the pry bar 51 relatively close to the press block 70 is fixedly connected to the traction rope.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 8 and 10, the housing 30 includes a main box 34 and a side cover 38 connected to the main box 34. The chamber 31 is provided in the main tank 34. The pressing block 70 is slidably accommodated in a space surrounded by the side cover 38 and the main casing 34. Specifically, the pressing block 70 may be slidably disposed with respect to the base 30 in a predetermined direction under the limitation of the inner surface of the side cover 38 and the outer surface of the main box 34, and the first inclined surface 71 and the second inclined surface 44 may be accurately abutted. Further, as shown in fig. 8 and 9, the pressing block 70 has an outer cylinder portion 73, the side cover 38 is provided with a second waist-shaped hole 381, the length direction of the second waist-shaped hole 381 is parallel to the sliding direction of the pressing block 70 relative to the base 30, and the outer cylinder portion 73 is accommodated in the second waist-shaped hole 381, so that the directional stability of the pressing block 70 is improved, and the first inclined surface 71 and the second inclined surface 44 are more accurately abutted. More specifically, the second pin member 54 penetrating the first waist-shaped hole 511 is simultaneously fixedly penetrated into the outer cylinder 73, thereby contributing to the improvement of the compactness of the battery holder 20. More specifically, the outer cylindrical portion 73 is provided on a side of the pressing block 70 facing away from the main casing 34. In one embodiment, the two side covers 38 are attached to both sides of the main box 34 by fasteners 42.

In some embodiments, the battery holder 20 further includes a second elastic member. The second elastic member is connected between the pressing block 70 and the seat 30, and transmits a second restoring elastic force to the pressing block 70 along the direction of the pressing block 70 pointing to the latch member 40. Specifically, since the direction of the second restoring elastic force is the same as the direction along which the pressing block 70 points to the locking member 40, the second elastic member can automatically separate the pressing block 70 from the locking member 40, so that the first inclined surface 71 is separated from the second inclined surface 44, and a condition for restoring the locking member 40 to the locking position is provided, so that the locking member 40 can be moved to the locking position. Further, to improve the compactness of the battery holder 20, the second elastic member is accommodated in the side cover 38. In one embodiment, the second elastic member is a compression spring, and the second elastic member abuts between the pressing block 70 and an inner surface of the side cover 38 facing away from the latch member 40. In another embodiment, the second elastic member is a tension spring, and the second elastic member is connected between the pressing block 70 and the inner surface of the side cover 38 facing the latch member 40.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 1, the upper end edge of the battery module 900a is flush with the access opening 32 after the battery module 900a is received in place in the chamber 31. In other embodiments, the outer end surface of the battery module 900a is flush with the surface of the housing 102 after the battery module 900a is received in place in the chamber 31.

In some embodiments, as shown in connection with fig. 4 and 5, the battery holder 20 further includes a jacking assembly 80 connected to the bottom side of the holder body 30. When the latch 40 is in the unlocked position, the lifting assembly 80 is used for pushing the bottom end of the battery module 900a, so that the upper edge of the battery module 900a is lifted relative to the picking and placing opening 32, or the outer end surface of the battery module 900a protrudes relative to the housing 102, thereby facilitating the removal of the battery module 900a from the battery holder 20.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 4 and 5, the jacking assembly 80 includes a jacking rod 81 and a third elastic member 82. The jack 81 has a compressed position and a released position relative to the housing 30. The ram 81 penetrates into the chamber 31 to a greater extent in the released position than in the compressed position. In the release position, the push rod 81 penetrates the chamber 31 from the bottom of the housing 30 and is used to push against the inner end of the battery module 900 a. In some embodiments, in the compressed position, the ram 81 is completely withdrawn from the chamber 31 so that the inner end surface of the battery module 900a can be fully contacted with the bottom surface of the chamber 31. In some embodiments, the third elastic member 82 abuts between the housing 102 and the jack 81. Specifically, the third elastic member 82 is elastically compressed by the pushing of the push rod 81 by the battery module 900a, and after the push rod 81 reaches the compressed position, the latch 40 is restored to the locking position, the position of the battery module 900a is restricted, and the push rod 81 is maintained in the compressed position. After the latch 40 is switched to the unlocking position, the elastic force of the third elastic member 82 ejects the battery module 900a to the outside of the chamber 31.

Specifically, under the abutment of the jacking assembly 80 against the inner end surface of the battery module 900a, the battery module 900a can be kept close to the locking pieces 40 on two sides, so that the battery module 900a can be prevented from shaking in the battery holder 20 better.
