Abstract
ABSTRACTThis paper is concerned with the design and implementation of an automatic charging system for the intelligent patrol robot. An economic and practical method combined with the infrared sensor and laser sensor is developed to realize the accurate automatic charge docking. The phase-shifted full-bridge ZVS-PWM converter is adopted to design an automatic charging pile, which uses a constant voltage limited current charging mode and improve the efficiency of the charging. Several simulations and experiments are implemented to test the automatic charge docking system, and the results could demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the system.
Highlights
With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, the intelligent patrol robots have been increasingly widely used in various fields, such as chemical plants, substations and coal mines (Song, Wang, & Sheng, 2016; Song, Wang, & Zou, 2017), to name a few
A lot of researchers have paid their attentions to the issue of automatic charging, where the development of automatic charge docking methods and the design of charging piles are still two difficult and complicated problems for the charging system of the intelligent patrol robot (Fang, Guo, Li, & Sun, 2011; Wang, Hou, Li, & Zhou, 2017)
The light sources are prone to be affected by the light of external environment especially in the daytime, the electronic map will become invalid when there are some changes in the environment, and the laser sensors are not accurate enough to locate the charging piles
Summary
With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, the intelligent patrol robots have been increasingly widely used in various fields, such as chemical plants, substations and coal mines (Song, Wang, & Sheng, 2016; Song, Wang, & Zou, 2017), to name a few. A lot of researchers have paid their attentions to the issue of automatic charging, where the development of automatic charge docking methods and the design of charging piles are still two difficult and complicated problems for the charging system of the intelligent patrol robot (Fang, Guo, Li, & Sun, 2011; Wang, Hou, Li, & Zhou, 2017). This paper is concerned with the design and implementation of an automatic charging system for the intelligent patrol robots, where a kind of phase-shifted full-bridge ZVS-PWM converter is adopted to design the charging system and an approach combined with infrared sensor and laser sensor is developed to realize the accurate automatic charge docking of the patrol robots.
