Pipeline self-adaptive detection robot

Abstract

The invention discloses a pipeline self-adaptive detection robot. The pipeline self-adaptive detection robot comprises a robot body, reducing mechanisms, a curve adaptation mechanism, wall-attached wheels, a camera holder, a communication cable and a control module, wherein the robot body is divided into a front section and a rear section, the front section and the rear section are connected through the curve adapting mechanism, and the curve adapting mechanism ensures that the robot can pass through a bent pipeline; the communication cable is fixed to a rear end cover of the rear section of the robot body and used for being connected with a computer outside a pipeline, a control module arranged on the robot body is controlled through the computer, and the camera holder is installed on a front end cover of the front section of the robot body. The reducing mechanisms are fixedly installed on the rear end cover of the front section of the robot body and the front end cover of the rear section of the robot body respectively and are arranged in an axial symmetry mode. The robot disclosed by the invention can move in a vertical, horizontal, inclined and bent pipeline, and a clear imageis provided through the camera carried on the robot.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a pipeline self-adaptive detection robot, which is suitable for detection and inspection of the internal conditions of the cargo ship pipeline system. [0002] technical background [0003] In the shipbuilding industry, the piping system is intricate, with many bends, verticals, inclinations, diameter changes, etc. It is difficult for traditional inspection methods to efficiently inspect the interior of the pipeline without dead ends. Most of the pipeline robots used in other industries are only suitable for the detection of horizontal pipelines. Although the latest pipeline robots can adapt to the above complex situations, they use a large number of sensors or have extremely high requirements for control technology. Contents of the invention [0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide a pipeline self-adaptive detection robot, which can not only a...
