<p>A charging system for a legged mobile robot that facilitates positioning of a robot to be charged and does not put a load on the robot is provided. The charging system includes a battery (2), a power receiving connector (4) and a movable shutter member (5) capable of being opened and closed on a rear cover (3), which are provided on a robot (1), and a holder (21), a power supplying connector (22), a slide mechanism (23), a base plate (25), a charging power supply (26) and the like, which are provided on a charging station (20). The robot (1) performs a predetermined positioning on the base plate (25) and then moves the center of gravity rearward to connect the power receiving connector (4) to the power supplying connector (22). In this step, when the rear cover (3) of the robot (1) is guided by a first guide section (21a) of the holder (21), the slide mechanism (23) allows the holder (21) to move horizontally. Thus, even if the robot (1) and the charging station (20) are slightly misaligned with each other, the robot (1) can be easily positioned correctly.</p> |
