By providing the first positioning part 30 and the second positioning part 20, the walking assembly 3 can be meshed with the track 2 when walking on the track 2, and the mutual stopping effect between the first positioning part 30 and the second positioning part 20 is used to drive the walking assembly 3 to move, so as to avoid the walking assembly 3 from slipping during walking, and avoid the problem that the walking assembly 3 is easily deformed under the action of gravity, thereby improving the structural strength of the whole machine, and thus improving the detection accuracy of the inspection device.

[0030] Specifically, the travel assembly 3 further includes: a travel wheel 31 connected to the machine body 1, the travel wheel 31 is rotatably arranged around its own axis, and the first positioning portion 30 is arranged on the circumferential surface of the travel wheel 31.
