It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so as to describe the embodiments of the present invention described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices; "fixed" or "fixed connection" generally refers to common mechanical connection methods, such as threaded connection, welding or bonding, etc.
[0053] In the prior art, when inspecting a photovoltaic power station, inspection equipment performs inspection work through inspection vehicles or inspection drones. The inspection vehicles are easy to control and can locate faults in the power station. However, due to the terrain restrictions of the photovoltaic site, it is difficult to conduct inspections in certain sites. Inspection drones are easily affected by the weather and are difficult to conduct inspections. In addition, current inspection equipment easily absorbs dust during inspections, affecting subsequent inspection work.
[0054] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide an integrated inspection robot. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the inspection robot includes a walking inspection part 100 and a flying inspection part 200, which are used to perform inspections on the road surface and in the air respectively. The two can perform independent and synchronous inspections, or they can perform inspections separately. The walking inspection part 100 is provided with a cavity for accommodating the flying inspection part 200. When the flying inspection part 200 is not performing inspections, it is placed inside the cavity and does not perform inspections, but moves with the walking inspection part 100. Inspection devices 300 are provided on both the walking inspection part 100 and the flying inspection part 200. The inspection device 300 is configured as a camera component, which is used to capture images during inspections and remotely transmit the captured images to the main controller for identification.
[0055] In order to conveniently control the entry and exit of the flight inspection part 200, the flight inspection part 200 is sealed and placed to extend its service life; a sliding plate 104 and a sliding drive member are provided on the walking inspection part 100, and the sliding drive member can be set as an electric telescopic member, which is installed inside the cavity and connected to the sliding plate 104 to drive the sliding plate 104 to move in and out of the cavity, and a slide rail is provided at the bottom of the sliding plate 104 to enable the sliding plate 104 to move stably in the cavity; the flight inspection part 200 is placed on the sliding plate 104, and the sliding plate 104 slides in and out of the cavity, thereby driving the flight inspection part 200 in and out of the cavity. Before the flight inspection part 200 needs to perform inspection work, the sliding plate 104 is controlled to move out of the cavity, so that the flight inspection part 200 is separated from the walking inspection part 100, and can independently perform inspection.
[0056] In order to ensure the sealing of the cavity and prevent the flight inspection part 200 from absorbing dust when placed, a sealing plate 107 is set on the sliding plate 104. The sealing plate 107 is vertically arranged with the sliding plate 104 and is located on one side of the flight inspection part 200. The sealing plate 107 is sealed and connected to the walking inspection part 100. Therefore, when the flight inspection part 200 is located inside the cavity, the sealing plate can seal the cavity to prevent external impurities from entering the cavity.
[0057] In order to prevent the flying inspection part 200 from shaking on the sliding plate 104 when the walking inspection device 300 is working, in order to ensure the stability of the flying inspection device 300 on the sliding plate 104; Figure 4 As shown, the flight inspection part 200 is configured as a drone body 201 and a landing gear 202 fixed to the bottom of the drone body 201, and the landing gear 202 is configured as a frame structure to reduce the weight of the drone; Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a fixing groove 105 is opened on the sliding plate 104, and the bottom of the landing gear 202 includes at least one rod body that can be inserted into the fixing groove 105; the landing gear 202 and the drone body 201 are limited by limiting the rod body at the bottom of the landing gear 202 so that it cannot be separated from the fixing groove 105. Specifically, a limiting plate 106 is installed on the sliding plate 104, and the bottom of the limiting plate 106 is in contact with the upper surface of the sliding plate 104. The center of the limiting plate 106 is connected to the sliding plate 104 through a rotating shaft. The rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the center of the limiting plate 106 so that when the rotating shaft rotates, the limiting plate 106 can rotate accordingly. A rotating shaft is installed at the bottom of the sliding plate 104. The dynamic driving member can be set as a structure of a motor and a reduction box, which is connected to the rotating shaft by the motor and drives the rotating shaft to rotate to drive the limit plate 106 to rotate on the sliding plate 104; in the present embodiment, the rotation angle of the limit plate 106 is set to 90°, and the state of the limit plate 106 is divided into a limit state and a non-limit state; in the limit state, part of the limit plate 106 moves to the upper end of the fixed groove 105 to limit the landing gear 202 from being separated from the fixed groove 105, thereby fixing the UAV on the sliding plate 104; in the non-limited state, the limit plate 106 moves to not contact the fixed groove 105, the landing gear 202 is not restricted, and the UAV can take off and land normally for inspection work.
[0058] In order to timely remove the dust absorbed by the drone during the inspection work, the drone body 201 and the inspection device 300 thereon are cleaned to ensure the stability of the inspection work; a first cleaning mechanism 400 is arranged on the sliding plate 104, and the first cleaning mechanism 400 cleans the drone before the drone is started and after landing, that is, the drone body 201 is blown and cleaned before and after the limit plate 106 is released from the limit; specifically, the first cleaning mechanism 400 is set as a fan, an air supply pipe 401, a mounting hole 402 and an air outlet net 404; the fan is installed on the inner wall of the cavity as an air supply source, the mounting hole 402 is opened at the upper end of the sliding plate 104 as an air outlet end, the air supply pipe 401 is installed at the bottom of the sliding plate 104, the air supply pipe 401 connects the air outlet end of the fan and the mounting hole 402 as a connecting air pipe, and the air inlet pipe of the fan is connected to the outside world; the air outlet net 404 can be detachably installed inside the mounting hole 402 to facilitate the replacement of the air outlet net 404.
[0059] In addition, in order to improve the compatibility between the limit plate 106 and the first cleaning mechanism 400, the limit plate 106 is arranged to close the mounting hole 402 when it has not moved to the upper end of the fixing groove 105, that is, when it is in an unlimited state, to restrict the air outlet, and at the same time prevent external dust from being adsorbed onto the air outlet net 404, thereby preventing dust and impurities from clogging the air outlet net 404 or entering the air supply pipe 401.
[0060] Through the above technical solution, by setting the flying inspection part 200 in the walking inspection part 100, when it is necessary to conduct an inspection through the flying inspection part 200, it can directly detach from the walking inspection part 100 to conduct the inspection work, which can meet the various inspection requirements in the air and on land, and meet the inspection requirements in different environments. The two can conduct inspection work independently or at the same time, and the inspection is convenient and efficient.
[0061] At the same time, when the inspection work is carried out at the same time, the inspection work can be carried out on the same area to be inspected, and the collected objects can be transmitted to the main controller for comparison and identification. The inspection pictures taken from different angles can avoid errors during the inspection.
[0062] By setting up the first cleaning mechanism 400, the drone is blown and cleaned before take-off and after landing to remove impurities adsorbed on the drone and the inspection device 300 during the inspection work, thereby ensuring the cleanliness and stability of subsequent inspection work; the limit plate 106 is effectively combined with the first cleaning mechanism 400, which can not only prevent external impurities from entering, but also facilitate control.
[0063] The convenient control is specifically reflected in: when an unlocking command is issued to the drone, the fan is started first to blow air to clean the drone, and after a delay of 4-10 seconds, the motor is started to control the limit plate 106 to rotate to unlock it; similarly, when the drone inspection is completed and a locking command is issued, the motor is started first to control the limit plate 106 to rotate to lock it, and then the fan is started to blow air to clean it. The use of linked system control does not require independent control of the fan.
[0064] In order to carry out comprehensive cleaning and improve the cleaning effect; Figure 7As shown, the air outlet net 404 is configured as a fixed part 4041 and a movable part 4042, and the fixed part 4041 is installed in the mounting hole 402; one end of the movable part 4042 is hinged to the fixed part 4041 through a rotating shaft, a telescopic rod 405 is arranged at the bottom of the movable part 4042, and a cross bar for installing the telescopic rod 405 is reserved in the mounting hole 402 of the sliding plate 104, one end of the telescopic rod 405 is hinged to the bottom end of the movable part 4042, and the other end is hinged to the cross bar to ensure that the telescopic rod 405 can be tilted, and the movable part 4042 of the air outlet net 404 is driven to tilt back and forth by the telescopic rod 405, and the inclination angle of the movable part 4042 is adjusted by the telescopic rod 405, thereby adjusting the direction of the air outlet, and performing multi-angle cleaning on the drone.
[0065] In order to further adjust the blowing cleaning angle of the air outlet and improve the cleaning effect; a guide block 403 is arranged on the sliding plate 104, and the guide block 403 is fixed on the sliding plate 104 and is located on one side of the movable part 4042 of the air outlet net 404. The guide block 403 is provided with a concave arc surface on the side facing the movable part 4042, so that the gas blown out of the movable part 4042 can be reflected and blown toward the drone for cleaning, and impurities can be placed from the side into the mounting hole 402.
[0066] In order to ensure the stability of the inspection device 300 installed on the walking inspection part 100 and prevent external impurities from being adsorbed on the inspection device 300 when no inspection work is performed; the walking inspection part 100 is configured as an inspection vehicle body 101 and an installation mechanism for installing the inspection device 300. The inspection vehicle body 101 is provided with a cavity for placing the drone.

[0067] In order to stably clean the inspection device 300 on the walking inspection part 100, a second cleaning mechanism 500 for cleaning the inspection device 300 is provided in the mounting portion 103. The second cleaning mechanism 500 includes an opening and closing cover 501, a cylinder 502, an exhaust port 503, a telescopic airbag 504, an air intake pipe 505, an air intake channel and an air blowing hole 506. Fig. 9 As shown, the opening and closing cover 501 adopts a semi-arc structure and is slidably arranged inside the installation cavity 1031 for opening and closing the inspection port. The opening and closing cover 501 cooperates with the inner wall of the installation cavity 1031 to seal the installation cavity 1031. A blowing hole 506 is opened on the side of the opening and closing cover 501 facing the inspection device 300. The blowing hole 506 is used to blow air toward the inspection device 300 for cleaning. The cylinder 502 is installed on the top wall of the installation cavity 1031 and is connected to the opening and closing cover 501 to drive the opening and closing cover 501 to move up and down in the installation cavity 1031. Fig.10 As shown, the exhaust port 503 is opened at one end of the installation part 103 away from the inspection port, which is used to discharge the gas and impurities blown out from the blowing hole 506. The installation column 1032 and the inner wall of the installation cavity 1031 are spaced apart to form an air flow channel 507.

[0069] In order to prevent external impurities from colliding with the inspection device and causing damage, a protective plate 508 is provided at the top of the installation portion 103. The edge of the protective plate 508 is bent downward to form a side protective plate 508, forming a cover style to protect the top of the inspection device 300.

[0071] The general control center issues a first inspection instruction, and the walking inspection part 100 performs the first inspection task in the area to be inspected;
[0072] When the walking inspection part 100 walks to an area that is difficult to walk or when the flying inspection part 200 needs to perform synchronous inspection, the walking inspection part 100 issues an unlocking command, and the flying inspection part 200 is moved out of the walking inspection part 100 through the sliding plate 104, and the inspection part is cleaned and then unlocked;
[0073] After the flight inspection part 200 is unlocked, a second inspection instruction is sent to the flight inspection part 200 through the walking inspection part 100. After the flight inspection part 200 takes off, the second inspection task is performed, and the walking inspection part 100 performs the first inspection task in other areas simultaneously;
