Abstract

The invention provides a wall-climbing robot suction cup device adaptive to complex surfaces, and relates to the fields of robots, machine design, mechanical drive, mechatronics and the like. The suction cup device is divided into three parts and mainly comprises a suction cup and a support thereof, rotating motors, a control system, corresponding sensors and connecting wires. The first motor is fixedly connected with an upper cover plate of a shank support, and the upper cover plate and a semispherical outer cover are fixedly connected through bolts. A first motor output shaft is connected with a second motor wrapping part through a key, and the second motor wrapping part is fixedly connected with the second hollow shaft motor. A second motor power output shaft is connected with the suction cup through a key, the sensors are evenly distributed on the periphery of the outer edge of the suction cup, and the control system is connected with the motors and the sensors through cables penetrating through a shank support channel. The sensors are used for detecting whether the suction cup touches a wall, the relative position between the suction cup and the adsorbed wall is judged, the control system controls the motors in real time, and the phenomenon that the skirt of the suction cup is curled is prevented. The wall-climbing robot suction cup device is suitable for a multi-legged robot or a wall-climbing robot or the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical fields of robots, mechanical design, mechanical transmission, mechanical electronics, etc., and in particular relates to a wall-climbing robot sucker device adapted to complex surfaces. Background technique [0002] In recent years, a large number of fruitful results have emerged in the field of wall-climbing robots, and the development in the field of wall-climbing robots at home and abroad is particularly rapid. At present, wall-climbing robots are mainly used in nuclear industry, petrochemical industry, shipbuilding industry, fire department and investigation activities, etc., such as cleaning the outer wall of high-rise buildings, detecting and maintaining the outer wall of storage tanks in petrochemical enterprises, and inspecting large-area steel plates. Spray paint, and carry out rescue and disaster relief in high-rise accidents. Wall-climbing robots Now wall-climbing robots are mainly divided into three c...
