Embodiment Construction

[0026] In order to have a clearer understanding of the technical features, purposes and effects of the present invention, the specific implementation manners of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Such as figure 1 As shown, the present invention proposes a walking mechanism 100 of a pipeline robot. The walking mechanism 100 of the pipeline robot includes: a worm 9 and a motor 12 driving the worm. The axis of the worm coincides with the axis of the pipeline. The motor 12 can be selected A motor with a cable, such as a DC servo torque motor 200LYX03, in order to have a simple and compact structure, the motor 12 is sequentially connected with the worm 9 through the coupling 10 along the length direction; the three sets of planetary gear sets are respectively located in three planes, as mentioned here The three planes do not include three parallel planes. The plane where each planetary gear set is located refers to the ...

Abstract

The invention provides a travelling mechanism of a pipeline robot. The travelling mechanism of the pipeline robot comprises a worm, a motor and three planetary gear sets, wherein the motor is used for driving the worm, and the axis of the worm is superposed with that of a pipeline; the three planetary gear sets are respectively positioned in three planes; each planetary gear set comprises a worm gear engaged with the worm, a sun gear coaxially connected to the worm gear, and two planetary gears which are mutually separated and respectively engaged with the sun gear; each planetary gear is coaxially connected with a travelling wheel, and the diameter of the travelling wheel is greater than that of the planetary gear; and one of the two travelling wheels is hinged on a rotating shaft of thesun gear through a first connecting rod arm, and the included angle formed between the first connecting rod arm and a second connecting rod arm is 0 to 180 degrees. According to the travelling mechanism, a closed force system is not required to be formed by an external spring force in the robot, and the worm drives the planetary gears to rotate, so that a transmission mechanism is integrated withan adjusting mechanism and the structure is simpler.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of robots, in particular to a walking mechanism of a pipeline robot. Background technique [0002] In general industry, nuclear facilities, oil and gas, military equipment and other fields, pipelines are widely used as an effective means of material transportation. In order to improve the life of pipelines and prevent accidents such as leakage, it is necessary to carry out effective inspection and maintenance of pipelines, and pipeline robots are produced to meet this need. Pipeline robot is a kind of machine, electricity and instrument that can walk automatically along the inside or outside of a small pipeline, carry one or more sensors and operating machinery, and perform a series of pipeline operations under the remote control of the staff or the automatic control of the computer. system. At present, there are many research results of pipeline robots at home and abroad, but the detection and maintenance of tiny p...
