Robot for cleaning metal pipeline by laser light

Abstract

The invention provides a robot for cleaning a metal pipeline by laser light. The robot comprises a wheel type trolley, a connecting component and an equipment cabinet. The wheel type trolley comprises a laser light output component, a camera shooting component and a dust collection mechanism. The connecting component comprises an optical fiber, a cable, a data line and a dust collection pipe. The equipment cabinet comprises a laser device, an optical fiber coupler, a power driving component, a water cooling machine, a dust collector and an industrial computer. Laser light is output by the laser device, coupled into the optical fiber through the optical fiber coupler and transmitted to an optical fiber collimation system in the laser light output component loaded on the wheel type trolley through the optical fiber, and then passes through a scanning galvanometer and a rotary accessory component in the laser light output component, so that a linear light spot capable of rotating by 360 degrees is output. The linear light spot rotates by 360 degrees to scan the inner wall of the metal pipeline, and therefore the purpose of cleaning the pipeline is achieved. The robot is used for cleaning the metal pipeline on line, and therefore the cleanness of the metal pipeline is kept on line.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of laser cleaning equipment, and in particular relates to a robot that uses laser to clean metal pipes. Background technique [0002] For some metal pipes, such as light transmission pipes in high-power laser devices, after a period of use, particles, rust and other pollutants will appear on the surface of the pipe wall. Once the pipeline is installed, it cannot be disassembled and cleaned, and it is difficult for cleaning personnel to enter the pipeline for online cleaning. Laser cleaning technology can effectively remove particles, rust and other pollutants on the metal surface. Compared with other cleaning technologies (ultrasonic cleaning, chemical cleaning, grinding, etc.), this technology is characterized by: (1) good cleaning effect; (2) non-destructive Minimal damage; (3) No other reagents are used, non-toxic and harmless, and no additional pollution; (4) Can be cleaned online; (5) Does not affect t...
