Floor Finishing Material Installation System

This technology features a mobile platform equipped with a pivotable guide mechanism that travels between floor leveling materials. By pressing the guide rollers against the materials when moving off the previously installed finishing area, the system maintains platform stability and orientation for autonomous navigation.

Traditional manual floor installation suffers from inconsistent quality and safety risks for workers. Furthermore, existing dedicated robots are limited to specific architectural environments, resulting in poor versatility, increased costs, and reduced productivity due to the need for separate robots for different tasks.

This technology incorporates a material feed opening and an internal lowering device at the rear of the mobile platform, along with a pivotable guide mechanism at the front that inserts into and rolls along the gaps between floor leveling materials. This design assists with autonomous movement and orientation on top of previously installed materials, automating the sequential installation process. Applicable to rehabilitation training, gait assistance, and medical/welfare services, it enhances construction efficiency, productivity, safety, and cost-effectiveness in the field of finishing material installation.

Key Features:
  • A mobile guide unit that inserts into and rolls along the gap between two adjacent floor leveling materials as the drive shaft pivots downward.
  • Multiple obstacle detection sensors installed along the sides of the mobile platform to identify obstructions.
  • Bumper sensors installed around the lower perimeter of the mobile platform to detect collisions.
  • A mobile platform featuring an elongated rear opening for feeding floor finishing materials, which are then lowered onto the pre-installed floor leveling materials inside the body.

This invention was developed with support from the Ministry of Science and ICT for the development of intelligent painting and masking collaborative robots.
