Electromagnetic docking structure and method for traction robot

Abstract

The invention discloses an electromagnetic docking structure of a traction robot, which is applied between two devices of a traction robot and a material vehicle, and is used to establish and disconnect the traction connection relationship between the two, including a first docking unit and a second docking unit One of the two is installed on the traction robot, and the other is installed on the material vehicle; the first docking unit includes two electromagnets and a controller, and the controller can control the communication between the two electromagnets. 1. Power off; the second docking unit includes a bar-shaped unit that can be attracted by a magnet; the distance between the two electromagnets is smaller than the length of the bar-shaped unit. In the electromagnetic docking structure and method of the traction robot of the present invention, the first docking unit and the second docking unit are respectively arranged on the traction robot and the material vehicle, and when docking is required, the electromagnet is energized to make it attract with the strip unit, and the docking accuracy is improved. The requirements are low, the success rate is greatly improved, and there is no large mechanical impact during docking, and the docking process is soft and smooth.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of robots, in particular to an electromagnetic docking structure and method for a traction robot. Background technique [0002] At present, in the industry, the way of robot towing material trucks is to sneak under the material trucks for mechanical hitch traction or use hooks for mechanical hitch traction. These structures can be classified as hard docking, which requires high placement of material trucks. Once there is a large deviation in the placement of the material truck, the success rate of the hook will be greatly reduced, which will affect the industrial production cycle and production efficiency, and there are also many potential safety hazards. Contents of the invention [0003] Purpose of the invention: In order to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides an electromagnetic docking structure and method for a non-submersible traction robot with a high docking su...
