Embodiment Construction

[0017] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0018] The purpose of the present invention is to design a kind of pneumatic pole-climbing robot based on the principle of bionic peristalsis, specifically a robot capable of climbing poles within a certain range of diameter. The present invention is a pneumatic pole-climbing robot based on bionic creep, which is modeled on the inchworm-style crawling manner, which is actually a design based on bionics, and is also called inchworm-style crawling. This crawling method is inspired by an insect in nature—the inchworm. The crawling process of this insect is as follows: the body is stretched, the front and rear claws grasp the ground; the hind claws are released, the body bends and shrinks to the shortest; The front paws are loosened, and the body is stretched to the longest; the front paws grasp the ground, the rear paws are released, and...

Abstract

The invention provides a pneumatic pole climbing robot based on bionic worming principles. The robot comprises a base and a main body support, wherein a steel rail is disposed on one side of the main body support, and a climbing drive air cylinder support is disposed on the other side; a climbing drive air cylinder is installed in the climbing drive air cylinder support; a composite slide car and a lower slide car are installed on the steel rail; a claw supporting frame is installed on the lower slide car and the composite slide car respectively; two fingers are in hinged connection to each claw supporting frame; a claw drive air cylinder is disposed between the two fingers on each claw supporting frame; an output end of the drive air cylinder is connected to the composite slide car by a fisheye bearing; fixed pulley bases are disposed on the upper and lower ends of the main body support; two fixed pulleys are installed on each fixed pulley base; and a closed rope structure composed of a steel wire rope and a damping spring is disposed on the four pulleys. According to the invention, the robot is simple and compact; mass of the robot is greatly reduced; and workloads of processing and manufacture of the robot are reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to robot technology, in particular to a pneumatic pole-climbing robot based on the principle of bionic peristalsis, which is suitable for the field of cleaning service robots. Background technique [0002] In modern life, billboards, large street lamps, cable-stayed steel cables of bridges, and telephone poles have emerged in large numbers. Most of the walls of these infrastructures are made of fiberglass, coated metal, paint and other materials, which will form a dust layer after a long period of accumulation in the outdoor environment, and will also cause corrosion to the facilities themselves. Therefore, frequent maintenance of these facilities is required. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a mechanical structure that can climb poles and carry operating mechanisms, so that the mechanism can be used as a platform that can carry actuators to replace people working at high altitudes, thereby liberating people from this...
