Abstract
Provided is a robot charging apparatus to wirelessly charge a robot capable of walking, which includes a plurality of receiving coils fixed to legs of a robot and a transmitting coil moved and provided according to a position of the robot and wirelessly charges the robot in such a manner that the transmitting coil is provided between the plurality of receiving coils and coupled to the receiving coils by a magnetic field output from the transmitting coil.
Claims14
A robot charging apparatus comprising:
- a first receiving coil fixed to a first leg of a robot capable of walking;
- a second receiving coil fixed to a second leg of the robot spaced apart from the first leg of the robot and coupled to the first receiving coil;
- and
- a transmitting coil installed in a charging body that interacts with the robot and moved and provided according to a position of the robot to which the first receiving coil and the second receiving coil are fixed,
- wherein the transmitting coil is installed inside or outside a wall constituting a space that allows wireless charging of the robot, and moved and provided according to the position of the robot between the first receiving coil and the second receiving coil fixed to the first leg and the second leg of the robot, respectively.
