Track type inspection robot walking mechanism

Abstract

The invention relates to a track type inspection robot walking mechanism. The track type inspection robot walking mechanism comprises support plates, at least two wheel discs and a plurality of crawling wheel claws, wherein the plurality of crawling wheel claws are connected from end to end to form a chain transmission mechanism; each support plate is of a U shape with a small top and a large bottom; the support plates and the wheel discs are fixed on a robot; the bottoms of the support plates are in contact with the inner wall of the chain transmission mechanism; the support plates are located at transition positions of the crawling wheel claws for grasping and releasing an operation tack; the robot drives the wheel discs to rotate; the wheel discs drive the crawling wheel claws to move;when the crawling wheel claws move to the support plates, the crawling wheel claws are in contact with the support plates, so that the crawling wheel claws are opened; when the crawling wheel claws continuously moves until the crawling wheel claws are separate from the support plates, the crawling wheel claws are closed and are used for clamping the operation track, so that the robot is driven tosafely and stably move on the complicated operation track.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of inspection robots, and more specifically relates to a walking mechanism of a rail-type inspection robot. Background technique [0002] After entering the 21st century, my country's science and economy are advancing at a high speed, and the use of robots is becoming more and more extensive. At the same time, higher and higher requirements are placed on the performance of robots. The track-type inspection robot needs to move back and forth on the track repeatedly to complete the inspection work, and the stability and reliability of the robot's movement along the track become important indicators. [0003] Due to the influence of its own characteristics, the operating path of the track-type inspection robot may be more complicated, such as the presence of large-angle slopes, smooth road sections, and irregular tracks. In these more complex road sections, it is necessary to achieve safety and stability of the robot. T...
