Diseño e implementación de un robot de batalla 12 libras utilizando un sistema de guarda motores para la etapa de potencia.

Abstract

The objective of this research project was to design and implement a 12-pound battle robot using a motor guard system for the power stage according to the regulations of the Ecuadorian CER Robotics Contest. The design and implementation of the battle robot was chosen because it is one of the categories that attracts the most attention within robotics competitions; while the implementation of the motor guard system is essential to safeguard the components of the traction system during a competition. Hall effect sensors were used to implement the engine guard system. Based on the tests carried out, it was determined that there is an error of ± 0.44% in the case of sensor 1 and an error of ± 0.29% for sensor 2; these sensors also have a coefficient of variation of 0.273 and 0.189 respectively, due to this, it was determined that the values obtained were stable. The power module is made up of two batteries, one battery is responsible for feeding the attack module and the other for feeding the traction system, protection system and communication module. From the tests carried out, an autonomy of 15 minutes of operation was determined for both batteries without the need for immediate recharging. Communication between the teleoperator and the robot is facilitated via a radio control that connects within a 15-meter range with good visibility of the robot without any radio control error signals or interference alerts. The attack module consists of a cam-type weapon made of steel that generates an approximate force of 159.79 N, capable of causing damage to an opponent. The response time of the protection system is 4.75 seconds from a high current detection. Thanks to the immediate response, the traction system and communication module components can be successfully protected.
