Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, since the positions of the optical sensing device and the collision plate are often highly overlapping, they are easy to form obstacles to each other, which reduces the obstacle avoidance function of the self-mobile robot

Embodiment approach 1

[0066] The inventors of the present application found that in the prior art, self-moving robots for intelligent cleaning usually include: a main body, an optical sensing device installed on the main body, and a strike plate connected to the main body. The sensing device is used to obtain the information of the surrounding obstacles to build a map and avoid obstacles.

[0067] In order to make the visual field of the optical sensing device clear and to observe the scene of the target route of the self-mobile robot, usually, a light-transmitting part is arranged on the collision plate, and a lens is arranged on the light-transmitting part. However, this arrangement creates a gap between the impact plate and the main body, causing dust to enter, thereby polluting the optical sensing device and reducing the service life of the optical sensing device.

[0068] However, in order to prevent the optical sensing device from being exposed to the dusty environment, generally, the front e...

Embodiment approach 2

[0090] The inventors of the present application have found that, in order to ensure the obstacle avoidance effect, the self-mobile robot is further provided with some other optical sensing devices.

[0091] In view of this, the second embodiment of the present application provides a self-moving robot. The second embodiment is a further improvement based on the first embodiment. The main improvement is that, see figure 2 As shown, in the second embodiment of the present application, the optical sensing device 21 includes an infrared sensing component 21b; the rear buffer see-through window 42 is at least partly transparent, and the infrared sensing component 21b faces the transparent portion of the rear buffer see-through window 42 light part. The infrared sensing component 21b can detect obstacles in the path of the self-mobile robot through the light-transmitting part of the rear buffer see-through window 42, so that the route can be planned in advance and the probability of...

Embodiment approach 3

[0098] In order to ensure the dustproof effect, the sealed space formed by the sealing structure 4 is completely sealed, so when the self-mobile robot is hit, the air pressure inside and outside the sealed space will be different.

[0099] At the moment of impact, the flexible seal 41 is squeezed, and the gas pressure in the sealed space increases. When the impact disappears and the impact plate 3 drives the flexible seal 41 to recover, it will stretch the sealed space together, so that the air in the sealed space The air pressure becomes thinner and the pressure decreases. These pressure changes will slightly hinder the movement range of the striker 3, which is not conducive to the cushioning effect of the striker 3, and also increases the strength requirements for the flexible seal 41.

[0100] In view of this, the third embodiment of the present application provides a self-mobile robot. The third embodiment is a further improvement based on the first embodiment or the second...

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of electrical equipment, and provides a self-moving robot which includes a body, a bump plate and a flexible sealing part. The body is provided with an optical sensing device, the bump plate is movably connected to the body, the flexible sealing part is arranged between the body and the bump plate, the flexible sealing part defines a sealed space, and the sealed space is configured to accommodate at least part of the optical sensing device, wherein the flexible sealing part can expand and contract along with the movement of the bump plate. The dust-proof effect can be significantly improved on the basis of ensuring an obstacle avoidance function of the self-moving robot to protect the optical sensing device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electrical equipment, in particular to a self-moving robot. Background technique [0002] A self-moving robot (Robot) is a machine device that performs work automatically. It can accept human command, run pre-programmed programs, and act according to principles formulated with artificial intelligence technology. Self-moving robots can replace humans in some dangerous environments or manufacturing procedures, or replace humans in appearance, behavior or cognition. [0003] With the development of the industrial age and the improvement of mechanical technology, automation equipment and remote control technology are becoming more and more mature. Many self-moving robots have the ability to plan their own moving paths and are applied in various subdivisions. For example, sweeping robots used in households, AVG cars used in industry, etc. [0004] In order to realize the function of planning the moving path...
