Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, there is a lack of professional equipment for the detection of wind turbine blades in China, and the traditional rope approach method is usually used. This kind of detection method similar to "spider man" is not only inefficient, but also cannot guarantee the safety of workers, and is affected by the weather. The environment has a greater impact

Abstract

A robot platform for wind driven generator blade detection comprises a connecting plate (3), two straight walking devices (1) and a steering device (2). The structures of the two straight walking devices (1) are completely identical, and the two straight walking devices (1) are symmetrically mounted on the two sides of the lower surface of the connecting plate (3); the steering device (2) is mounted in the center of the lower surface of the connecting plate (3); each straight walking device (1) comprises two supporting frames (19), two sliding blocks (12), two guide rails (15), a straight walking top plate (11), a straight walking bottom plate (10), three suction cup assemblies, an obstacle crossing assembly and a push-pull rod (17). The steering device (2) comprises two micro vacuum pumps (24), a steering top plate (21), a steering bottom plate (22), six suction cup assemblies, two obstacle crossing assemblies and a steering engine (23). The robot platform is easy to steer, high in wall face adaptability, small in operation resistance and easy to control and has large application prospects in the field of wind driven generator blade detection.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of detection of blades of wind power generators, in particular to a robot platform for detection of blades of wind power generators. Background technique [0002] Wind turbine blades are one of the core components of wind turbines and a device for capturing wind energy, and their performance directly affects the performance of the entire system. Various media in the air are eroding the blades almost all the time, and regular inspections should be carried out every year to ensure the normal operation of the blades. [0003] At present, there is a lack of professional equipment for the detection of wind turbine blades in China, and the traditional rope approach method is usually used. This kind of detection method similar to the "spider man" is not only inefficient, but also cannot guarantee the safety of workers, and is affected by the weather. The environment has a greater impact. Therefore, researching a robot plat...
