Abstract:
1. A robot with an automatic charging function, comprising: a body, an arm mechanism rotatably connected to the body, a head mechanism and a driver rotatably connected to drive the arm mechanism; wherein a receiving space is formed in the body for receiving the arm mechanism, the receiving space has a first side wall, and the first side wall defines a through hole; the head mechanism comprises conduction terminals for receiving power from power outlets of a charging station; when a power of the robot is lower than a preset level, the driver is configured to drive the arm mechanism to rotate out of the receiving space of the body, simultaneously, the driver is configured to drive the head mechanism to rotate relatively to the arm mechanism till the two conduction terminals of the head mechanism are electronically connected to the power outlets of the charge station, thereby receiving power from the charge station; wherein the driver includes a first driver mechanism and a second driver mechanism, the first driver mechanism is configured to drive the arm mechanism and the head mechanism to rotate relatively to the body; and the second driver mechanism is configured to drive the head mechanism to rotate relatively to the arm mechanism; and the head mechanism further comprises a first connection portion rotatably coupled to the head mechanism, and a second connection portion connected to the first connection portion and rotatably coupled to the body; the second connection portion defines a through hole; an axis, which is fixed over and protrudes from the through hole of the second connection portion, is set in the second connection portion on a first side of the arm mechanism; the axis is rotatably fixed in the through hole of the receiving space, and configured to rotatably fix the arm mechanism to the body.
