Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of coal mining technology, and in particular to an inspection robot lifting platform. Background Technology

[0002] In coal mines, inspection is a crucial daily task. Inspection robots address safety and efficiency issues associated with manual inspections, while robot lifting platforms facilitate automated entry and exit, allowing for convenient relocation. Existing inspection robots often operate on fixed tracks and within fixed areas, resulting in blind spots. Given the varying elevations and non-linear shapes of coal mine tunnels, especially at bends, fixed-angle inspections easily create blind spots, impacting efficiency. Furthermore, the complex underground environment increases the risk of tipping over or falling, rendering inspections ineffective. Obstacles along the inspection route require manual clearing, increasing safety risks and hindering tasks such as sampling and transport. Utility Model Content

[0003] Based on existing technical problems, this utility model proposes a lifting platform for inspection robots.

[0004] The present invention discloses an inspection robot lifting platform, including a chassis, wherein a lifting platform that can be raised and lowered is provided on the top of the chassis.

[0005] The upper surface of the lifting platform is equipped with an electric rotating gimbal, and the lifting platform drives the electric rotating gimbal to achieve the up and down movement.

[0006] The upper surface of the electric rotating gimbal is equipped with a robotic arm.

[0007] Preferably, tracks are provided on both the left and right sides of the bottom of the chassis, and the chassis is driven to move by the tracks.

[0008] The above technical solutions enhance the stability and obstacle-crossing capabilities of inspection robots, enabling them to adapt to various complex underground road environments, especially better handling uneven road surfaces and potholes.

[0009] Preferably, a hydraulic pump station is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the chassis, and a hydraulic cylinder is rotatably installed on the right side of the hydraulic pump station. The hydraulic pump station controls the oil supply action of the hydraulic cylinder through pipelines.

[0010] By using the above technical solution to supply oil to the hydraulic cylinders via a hydraulic pump station, the height of the inspection robot can be flexibly adjusted according to different underground environments, thereby enhancing its passability and providing different viewing angles.

[0011] Preferably, the upper surface of the chassis is further hinged to both sides with a first telescopic rod that is slidably connected to the lower surface of the lifting platform. The lower surface of the lifting platform is installed with the first telescopic rod through a sliding groove. The upper surface of the chassis is also fixedly installed with a sliding groove, and the inner wall of the sliding groove is slidably connected to a second telescopic rod that is hinged to the lower surface of the lifting platform.

[0012] Through the above technical solution, the hydraulic cylinder, the first telescopic rod and the second telescopic rod work together to control the height of the lifting platform. This not only allows for tunnel inspections at different heights, but also enables the use of the space between the lifting platform and the chassis to store or place materials or items.

[0013] Preferably, the upper surface of the electric rotating gimbal is provided with a mobile power supply, and the upper surface of the electric rotating gimbal is fixedly installed with the top of the robotic arm. The upper surface of the mobile power supply is also provided with a telescopic camera that can be raised and lowered. The mobile power supply also supplies power to the telescopic camera. The telescopic camera is used to inspect the coal mine tunnel. The maximum lifting height of the telescopic camera is less than the height of the robotic arm.

[0014] Through the above technical solution, the telescopic camera adopts a wirelessly connected spherical telescopic camera, which can obtain the maximum inspection angle, can rotate 360° in all directions, provide different perspectives, and facilitate the background monitoring and observation of the telescopic camera.

[0015] Preferably, the top of the robotic arm is hinged to an electric telescopic rod that is electrically connected to the mobile power supply. An electric hydraulic clamp is fixedly installed at the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod. The electric hydraulic clamp is controlled by the rotation of the electric rotating platform and the telescopic movement of the electric telescopic rod to clean obstacles on the inner wall of the tunnel.

[0016] The above technical solution can capture the specific situation underground and transmit it to the database in real time. Based on the real-time images transmitted by the telescopic rotating camera, the manual monitoring personnel can quickly and accurately issue various task requirements. The telescopic rotating camera is equipped with an electric hydraulic rod at the bottom, which can be adjusted in height as needed. Combined with the electric rotating gimbal for angle adjustment and the height adjustment of the lifting platform, more accurate and detailed data can be collected, improving work efficiency.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0018] 1. By installing tracks on the chassis, the stability and obstacle-crossing performance of the inspection robot are increased, thus adapting to various complex road environments underground, especially better handling uneven road surfaces and potholes.

[0019] 2. By using a liftable platform set on top of the chassis and a hydraulic pump station to drive the hydraulic cylinder, the height of the inspection robot can be flexibly adjusted. The height of the inspection robot can be adjusted according to different underground environments, which not only enhances its passability but also provides different height perspectives.

[0020] 3. The electric rotating gimbal installed on the lifting platform can rotate 360° in all directions, providing different viewing angles and facilitating manual monitoring and observation.

[0021] 4. The robotic arm, mounted on the upper surface of the electric rotating gimbal, is driven by an electric motor to extend and perform various grasping tasks, such as transporting medical supplies during underground rescue, pushing or prying away obstacles, extracting test samples, and other grasping tasks. The robotic arm has a telescopic function, a larger grasping range, and a wider range of practical applications.

[0022] 5. The telescopic camera mounted on the upper surface of the electric rotating pan-tilt head can capture the specific situation underground and transmit it to the database in real time. Based on the real-time images transmitted by the telescopic camera, the monitoring personnel can quickly and accurately issue various task requirements. The telescopic camera is equipped with an electric hydraulic rod below it, which can be adjusted in height as needed. Combined with the angle adjustment of the electric rotating pan-tilt head and the height adjustment of the lifting platform, more accurate and detailed data can be collected, improving work efficiency.

[0031] The hydraulic cylinder 4, the first telescopic rod 11, and the second telescopic rod 7 work together to control the height of the lifting platform 8. This not only allows for tunnel inspections at different heights, but also enables the use of the space between the lifting platform 8 and the chassis 1 to store or place materials or items.

[0032] By using the lifting platform 8 set on top of the chassis 1 and the hydraulic pump station 3 to drive the hydraulic cylinder 4, the height of the inspection robot can be flexibly adjusted.

[0035] The upper surface of the electric rotating gimbal 12 is provided with a robotic arm 14.

An adjustable telescopic camera 13 is also mounted on the upper surface of the mobile power supply 5, which also supplies power to the telescopic camera 13. The telescopic camera 13 is used to inspect the coal mine tunnel. The maximum height of the telescopic camera 13 is less than the height of the robotic arm 14. The telescopic camera 13 is a wirelessly connected spherical telescopic camera, which allows for the acquisition of the maximum inspection angle, enabling 360° rotation and providing different perspectives, facilitating background monitoring and observation.

[0037] Furthermore, the top of the robotic arm 14 is hinged to an electric telescopic rod 6 that is electrically connected to the mobile power supply 5. An electric hydraulic clamp 15 is fixedly installed at the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 6. The electric hydraulic clamp 15 is controlled by the rotation of the electric rotating gimbal 12 and the telescopic movement of the electric telescopic rod 6 to clean the obstacles on the inner wall of the tunnel.

[0038] It can capture the specific situation underground and transmit it to the database in real time. Based on the real-time images transmitted by the telescopic camera 13, the manual monitoring personnel can quickly and accurately issue various task requirements.
