Crawling robot and crawling rod structure thereof

Abstract

The invention provides a crawling robot and a crawling rod structure thereof. The crawling robot comprises two or more sections of robot bodies and crawling rod structures arranged on the robot bodies, wherein each crawling rod structure comprises a transmission mechanism, one pair or more of support arms arranged on two sides of each robot body and capable of acting relative to the body through the transmission mechanism, and one or more tightening belts connected to the support arms; the tightening belts are in elastic self-adaptive connection with the support arms. According to the crawlingrobot, the support arms of the crawling rod structures are used for extending and tightening the tightening belts relative to the rod bodies and supplying enough support force to the tightening belts; the tightening belts and the robot bodies are capable of self-adaptively adjusting wrap angles among the tightening belts and the robot bodies and pillar bodies and generating good wrapping effects, so that the crawling robot can better crawl on various pillars with different diameters.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a crawling device applied to pole-shaped objects, in particular to a crawling robot and its pole-climbing structure. Background technique [0002] Existing robots or machine equipment are widely used in various fields. The inventor has developed a crawling device in order to work on columns with vertical heights such as flagpoles, utility poles, cables, and tree trunks. The innovative design of the huggable device adopts the method of flexible tension belt to achieve the characteristics of compact structure, adaptability to various cylindrical materials, and rapid and accurate climbing movement. However, in practice, the inventor found that the aforementioned flexible tension belt is due to Lack of support, it is easy to sag downward during the zooming process, and it is difficult to adjust the wrapping angle of cylinders with different diameters, which leads to the problem of poor fixing effect. At the same time, the existing ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] In view of the fact that the existing crawling robot adopts the fixing method of flexible tension belts, there is no support at both ends and it is easy to sag downward during the stretching process, and the fixation effect is not good due to the inability to adaptively adjust the wrap angle between different columns , and the problem that the body is too heavy, the inventor provides a crawling robot and its climbing pole structure, which is mainly used to increase the overall rigidity and light weight, and overcome the aforementioned problems
