发明名称 APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING TETHERED ELECTRICAL POWER TO AUTONOMOUS MOBILE ROBOTS
摘要 <p>An apparatus includes a robot arm, an electrical power cord, a motor-driven cable reel, an end effector, and at least one sensor. The robot arm has a proximal end and a distal end, and is configured to move in response to one or more electrical signals. The electrical power cord extends through the robot arm from the proximal end to the distal end and has an electrical plug at an end thereof. The motor-driven cable reel dispenses and retracts the electrical power cord so as to control a length thereof. The end effector is disposed at the distal end of the robot arm, and is configured to selectively grasp and release the electrical plug. The sensor is disposed at the distal end of the robot arm, and is configured to produce sensor data for controlling the robot arm to dock the electrical plug into an electrical receptacle.</p>
