Pipeline ditch detecting robot and system thereof

Abstract

The invention relates to a pipeline ditch detecting robot system which comprises a robot, a control box and a cable connected with the robot and the control box. The robot comprises a vehicle body, walking mechanisms, a lifting mechanism and a pan-tilt camera shooting device. The side face of the vehicle body is in the shape of a big-end-up trapezoid. The walking mechanisms are two sets of crawler type walking mechanisms on the two sides of the vehicle body. Each crawler type walking mechanism comprises a driving wheel, a guide wheel, two track rollers, a plurality of weight bearing wheels and a track, wherein the driving wheels, the guide wheels, the track rollers and the weight bearing wheels are sleeved with the tracks. The driving wheels and the guide wheels are arranged at the two ends of the upper portion of the vehicle body, track guide wheels are arranged between the driving wheels and the guide wheels, and the weight bearing wheels are arranged at the lower end of the vehicle body to bear the vehicle body and elements on the vehicle body. The system is simple in structure, has complete functions, is convenient to operate, and can adapt to more complex conditions.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of mobile robots, and in particular relates to a pipeline and trench detection robot for cable detection and a system thereof. Background technique [0002] As my country's electricity demand continues to increase and the scale of the power grid continues to expand, the application of underground cables has become more and more widespread, and the frequency of corresponding cable failures has also become higher. The cable is laid in the cable trench, and it is difficult to detect it in real time. Therefore, in the past, the cable was repaired by measuring and finding the fault point through the instrument after the cable failed. This method cannot avoid the occurrence of cable faults and the corresponding economic losses. In addition, the cable trench is left unattended for a long time, and the environment of the cable trench is harsh, which increases the risk of maintenance personnel. Therefore, the situation in the cable...

Problems solved by technology

These robots are not only complex in structure, but also have some deficiencies in performance: the robots disclosed in '664 and '925 have complex structures, and the robots cannot overcome obstacles when they retreat, and the platform of the robot does not have the function of platform lifting, although It can be used for the detection of cable tunnels, but the effect is not ideal when used in cable trenches with narrow spaces

The obstacle surmounting performance of the robot disclosed in '339 is relatively poor. Although it has the manual upgrade function of the pan / tilt, it can be applied to pipes or ditches with different pipe diameters, but the lifting of the pan / tilt needs to be manually operated, and the range of the pan / tilt can be lifted still very limited
