Abstract

A human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle is provided. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle may include a vehicle body and two wheels mounted on the vehicle body. The two wheels may rotate around the vehicle body in a radial direction. The vehicle body may include a support frame, two pedal devices mounted on the support frame, a controller, and a driving device configured to drive the two wheels. The support frame may be an integral structure rotatably connected to the two pedal devices. The two pedal devices each may include a pedal foot board and a first position sensor. The first position sensor may be mounted between the pedal foot board and the support frame, and configured to detect stress information of the pedal device. The controller may be configured to control the driving device to drive the two wheels to move or turn based on the stress information of the pedal devices.

First claim

a driving device configured to drive the two wheels,
wherein a wheel shaft is mounted between each of the two wheels and the vehicle body; the wheel is rotatably connected to the vehicle body through the wheel shaft; and a center of gravity of the vehicle body is lower than a center of gravity of the wheel shaft;
the support frame is an integral structure rotatably connected to the two pedal devices;
the two pedal devices each includes a pedal foot board and a first position sensor, wherein the first position sensor is mounted between the pedal foot board and the support frame, and configured to detect stress information of the pedal device; and
the controller is configured to control the driving device to drive the
two wheels to move or turn based on the stress information of the pedal devices.

2. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 1 , wherein each of the first position sensors includes two sensing component regions located at two portions of the pedal foot board; and
each of the first position sensors detects stress information of the two positions of the pedal foot board through the two sensing component regions to generate the stress information of the two pedal devices.

3. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 2 , wherein each of the two sensing component regions includes a first force receiving portion and a second force receiving portion, wherein
the first force receiving portion of each of the sensing component regions abuts one of the support frame and the pedal foot board; and
the second force receiving portion abuts the other one of the support frame and the pedal foot board.

4. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 3 , wherein the first position sensor includes a front end, a rear end, and a connect portion connecting the front end and the rear end; and
each of the front end and the rear end includes the first force receiving portion, the second force receiving portion, and the sensing component region located between the first force receiving portion and the second force receiving portion.

5. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 3 , wherein a first gap is configured between the pedal foot board and the sensing component region.

6. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 3 , wherein a bottom surface of the one of the first force receiving portion or the second force receiving portion that abuts the pedal foot board is suspended.

7. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 6 , wherein each of the two pedal devices further includes a sensor holder mounted on the support frame; and
the one of the first force receiving portion or the second force receiving portion that abuts the support frame abuts the support frame via the sensor holder.

8. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 7 , wherein the first force receiving portion abuts the pedal foot board;
the second force receiving portion abuts the sensor holder; and
the bottom surface of the first force receiving portion is suspended.

9. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 8 , wherein a second gap is configured between the sensor holder and the sensing component region.

10. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 1 , wherein the bottom surface of each of the two pedal devices is recessed upward to accommodate a part of the support frame.

11. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 1 , wherein a guiding rail having a concave portion is mounted on the support frame; and
one or more pedal device fixing brackets are inserted into the guiding rail to mount and hold the two pedal devices.

12. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 11 , wherein the guiding rail that the one or more pedal device fixing brackets inserted into includes either an integral guiding rail or two separate guiding rails on two sides of the vehicle respectively.

13. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 11 , wherein the pedal device fixing bracket includes:
an insertion part horizontally inserted into the guiding rail; and
an installation part extending out of the guiding rail configured to mount and hold the two pedal devices.

14. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 1 , wherein one end of the wheel shaft is connected to the wheel and the other end of the wheel shaft is connected to a wheel shaft fixation board that is mounted on the vehicle body.

15. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 14 , wherein a motor holder matching with the wheel shaft fixation board is mounted on a side of the support frame; and
a center of gravity of the motor holder is lower than the center of gravity of the wheel shaft.

16. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 15 , wherein a receiving chamber matching with the motor holder is mounted on the support frame; and
the motor holder includes:
a plug end, configured to direct the motor holder to be plugged in the receiving chamber; and
a cap portion connected to the plug end, configured to seal the receiving chamber.

17. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 1 , wherein a connection component is placed in the human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle, the connection component including a power source connection component, a Hall connection component, and a temperature connection component configured to transmit temperature signals.

18. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 17 , wherein the power source is placed in the support frame, the power source including a temperature sensor configured to monitor an internal temperature of the power source; and
the temperature connection component is connected to the temperature sensor.

19. The human-machine interaction somatosensory vehicle of claim 1 , wherein a wheel cap is mounted on an outer side of each of the two wheels and anti-collision rubber is mounted on the wheel cap.
