Problems solved by technology

Previously, the non-excavation "earth-piercing dragon" special operation robot for underground pipe laying and the arching mud robot for salvage of sunken ships have been developed in China. The power source of such robots is generally hydraulic or pneumatic, and the structure adopts reciprocating The impact squeezes the soil forward, which has the disadvantages of high energy consumption and complicated control system
A domestic university has designed a robot that imitates an earthworm arch hole in a soil environment. It has three body segments that can move axially and radially expand and contract, and imitate the creeping and crawling of earthworms. In the stage of virtual simulation, there is still a big gap from practical application
Japan has developed a small drilling robot "Digbot" for geological survey. The robot adopts the design of "double reverse drill bit" to eliminate the resistance moment of the soil during drilling. The rear part of the robot uses an electromagnetic solenoid. Provides forward thrust to the robot, but this method provides limited thrust and no steering capabilities
The United States has developed a self-propelled deep-hole drilling equipment, which is divided into two sections, front and rear, and moves forward by imitating an inchworm. It can be used for extraterrestrial planetary exploration and can also be used for underground drilling on the earth. However, the robot has a complex structure and is expensive to manufacture. Expensive, not suitable for high-volume production applications
Although earth-drilling robots have been studied at home and abroad for many years, due to the complex underground soil environment and high performance requirements for robots, many earth-drilling robots are still in the laboratory research stage

Embodiment Construction

[0031] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0032] see Figure 1-7 , the self-propelled ground-drilling robot of this embodiment is mainly composed of four parts: a head 1, a robot body 4, a screw rod 12, and a support foot 8, including a drilling system for cutting and transporting the soil, and providing power for movement. system, a control system that controls the drilling system and the power system.

[0033] Drilling system comprises conical drill bit 1, motor 2 and screw rod 12 three parts. Drill 1 ( Figure 4 ) top is an auger bit, and the rear part adopts a hollow form, and the bit surface is provided with cutting teeth 26, which facilitates the cutting of soil, while the hollow structure is beneficial for soil debris to enter the soil-discharging auger 12, and finally discharge from the fuselage afterbody. The motor 2 has double output shafts, which are respectively connecte...

Abstract

The invention discloses a self-propelled drilling robot which comprises a drilling system, a power system and a control system, wherein the drilling system is used for realizing cutting and conveying of soil; the power system is used for providing the motion capability; the control system is used for controlling the drilling system and the power system; the power system is connected with the drilling system through a transmission; and the control system is in communication connection with the power system and the drilling system. Under the drive of a motor, the robot can realize moving forwards and steering by being pushed by supporting feet. Moreover, the robot is provided with a detection device, a gyroscope and a control circuit board. The application of a combined cable to transmission of a power source and information is beneficial for implementing remote real-time monitoring on the robot by personnel above the ground. The robot has simple mechanism and compact structure, is provided with a drill bit and a dumping device, is beneficial for moving in a self-propelled mode, can successfully drill into the ground, can freely move and steer in the soil, and is suitable for exploration of underground mineral resources, geological exploration, earthquake and mining disaster rescue and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of robots, and relates to a self-propelled earth-drilling robot that can be used in underground mineral deposit exploration, geological exploration, earthquake, mine disaster rescue and the like. Background technique [0002] my country is one of the few countries with large mineral resources in the world. However, most of the mineral resources are stored underground or on the seabed. Under the ruins of buildings or underground, it is difficult for rescue personnel and equipment to directly reach the victims, which causes great difficulties for rescue work. Environments such as underground, seabed or building ruins are inaccessible or not allowed to be directly accessed by humans, and setting up large-scale excavation equipment on the ground often has the disadvantages of time-consuming, high energy consumption, high cost, and limited by ground environmental conditions. [0003] As a typical representative o...
