The driving wheel 223 is driven to rotate by the driving motor 221, so that the whole inspection moving mechanism 20 moves along the extension direction of the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12. The driving wheel 223 and the output shaft of the driving motor 221 are connected through a key, so as to ensure the relative position of the driving wheel 223 and the driving motor 221 in the axial and circumferential directions.
[0035] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the support frame 21 is an inverted T-shaped frame comprising a horizontal plate 212 and a vertical plate 211 which are connected with each other, the vertical plate 211 is located at one side of the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12, the vertical plate 211 comprises a first vertical plate section, a second vertical plate section and a third vertical plate section which are connected in sequence downward along the height direction, the horizontal plate 212 is divided into a first horizontal plate section and a second horizontal plate section which are connected with each other by the vertical plate 211, the second horizontal plate section is located at the side of the vertical plate 211 close to the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12, the first mounting position is located at the side of the first vertical plate section away from the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12, the second mounting position is located at the side of the third vertical plate section away from the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12 and / or on the first horizontal plate section, the first buffer limiting part 23 is arranged on the second vertical plate section, and the second buffer limiting part 24 is arranged on the second horizontal plate section.
[0036] Thus, the driving part 22 and the support frame 21 are integrated and installed, and the structure assembly after the driving part 22 and the support frame 21 are connected is miniaturized. Specifically, in the embodiment, the first vertical plate section has threaded holes at four corners in the circumferential direction, the motor body of the driving motor 221 has corresponding four through holes on the side facing the first vertical plate section, the driving motor 221 and the first vertical plate section are fixedly connected through four screws, the first vertical plate section further has an avoiding hole, the output shaft of the driving motor 221 passes through the avoiding hole and is located above the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12, and the driving wheel 223 is connected to the end of the output shaft above the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12 through a key and abuts against the top wall of the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12. Further, the driving power supply 222 in the embodiment is arranged on the first horizontal plate section, and the driving part 22 further includes a battery fixing strip, and the driving power supply 222 is fixed on the first horizontal plate section through the battery fixing strip. The second vertical plate section and the second horizontal plate section each have an avoiding hole for the first buffer limiting part 23 and the second buffer limiting part 24 to pass through, respectively.
[0037] As shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the support frame 21 includes a vertical plate 211 and a horizontal plate 212 connected to each other, and the plurality of buffer limiting parts include a first buffer limiting part 23 and a second buffer limiting part 24, the first buffer limiting part 23 includes a first elastic member 231 and a first limiting assembly, the second buffer limiting part 24 includes a second elastic member 241 and a second limiting assembly, the first limiting assembly is movably arranged through the horizontal plate 212 in the horizontal direction, one end of the first limiting assembly abuts against the side wall of the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12, and the other end of the first limiting assembly is in abutting stop cooperation with the horizontal plate 212, both ends of the first elastic member 231 are connected to the first limiting assembly and the horizontal plate 212, respectively, the second limiting assembly is movably arranged through the vertical plate 211 in the vertical direction, one end of the second limiting assembly abuts against the bottom end of the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12, and the other end of the second limiting assembly is in abutting stop cooperation with the vertical plate 211, both ends of the second elastic member 241 are connected to the second limiting assembly and the horizontal plate 212, respectively. In the embodiment, the first limiting assembly abuts against the side wall of the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12 through the elastic force of the first elastic member 231, and the second limiting assembly abuts against the bottom end of the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12 through the elastic force of the second elastic member 241, so as to ensure the flexible support and limiting effect of the first buffer limiting part 23 and the second buffer limiting part 24 on the support frame 21.
[0038] Specifically, the vertical plate 211 has a guide segment 2111 extending in the horizontal direction, the vertical plate 211 has a first guide hole 2112 penetrating through the guide segment 2111, the first guide hole 2112 includes a first hole segment and a second hole segment, the first hole segment is located on a side of the second hole segment away from the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12 and has a smaller radial dimension than the second hole segment, the first limiting component includes a side positioning piece 232, a side positioning bracket 233 and a side positioning wheel 234 connected in sequence, the side positioning bracket 233 includes a first guide rod segment 2331 and a first mounting segment 2332, the side positioning wheel 234 is rotatably arranged on the first mounting segment 2332, the first guide rod segment 2331 has a smaller radial dimension than a maximum radial dimension of the first mounting segment 2332, a first elastic piece 231 is sleeved on the first guide rod segment 2331 and abuts against the bottom wall of the second hole segment and the first mounting segment 2332 at two ends respectively, so that the side positioning wheel 234 abuts against the side wall of the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12, a free end of the side positioning piece 232 is located outside the first hole segment, a connecting end of the side positioning piece 232 is located in the first hole segment and connected with the side positioning bracket 233, the free end has a larger radial dimension than the first hole segment, and the free end of the side positioning piece 232 and an end portion of the guide segment 2111 are in abutting fit.
[0039] In the embodiment, the guide segment 2111 and the first guide hole 2112 are both located on the second vertical plate segment and extend in the horizontal direction, the free end of the side positioning piece 232 and the end portion of the guide segment 2111 are in abutting fit, and the first mounting segment 2332 has a larger radial dimension than the second hole segment and is in abutting fit with the vertical plate 211. In this way, the movement of the side positioning bracket 233 is limited, so that the first buffer limiting portion 23 is prevented from being disabled due to the side positioning bracket 233 moving out of the first guide hole 2112. The first hole segment and the first guide rod segment 2331 are in limiting fit, so as to guide the movement of the side positioning bracket 233 and prevent the movement from deviating. The first elastic piece 231 is partially arranged in the second hole segment, so as to facilitate the installation and placement of the first elastic piece 231. The side positioning bracket 233 is tightly abutted against the side wall of the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12 under the elastic action of the first elastic piece 231.
[0040] Specifically, the side positioning piece 232 in the embodiment is a screw, the end portion of the first guide rod segment 2331 has a threaded hole, and the side positioning piece 232 is arranged in the threaded hole. The first mounting segment 2332 is a strip structure with a concave cross section, the side positioning wheel 234 includes a connecting shaft and a wheel body, the connecting shaft is arranged in the first mounting segment 2332, and the wheel body is rotatably sleeved on the connecting shaft through a bearing. An outer peripheral portion of the wheel body protrudes from a region surrounded by the first mounting segment 2332, so as to ensure that the wheel body abuts against the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12. The radial direction of the wheel body is parallel to the top wall of the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12, and the axial direction of the wheel body is parallel to the side wall of the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12, so as to ensure that the movement track of the side positioning wheel 234 is the same as the extension track of the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12.
[0041] Furthermore, the first limiting component also includes an anti-rotation structure 235, which is disposed between the first hole section and the first guide rod section 2331 to limit the rotation of the first guide rod section 2331 within the first hole section.
[0042] In this embodiment, the anti-rotation structure 235 restricts the relative rotation of the side support 233 and the guide section 2111 in the circumferential direction, ensuring that the movement trajectory of the side positioning wheel 234 is the same as the extension trajectory of the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12. This avoids the side support 233 rotating, causing the movement trajectory of the side positioning wheel 234 to intersect with the extension trajectory of the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12, which could lead to the inspection motion mechanism 20 getting stuck during movement. This ensures the reliability of the inspection motion mechanism 20 moving along the inverted L-shaped hanging rail.
[0043] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the horizontal plate 212 has a through second guide hole 2121. The second limiting assembly includes a lower positioning member 242, a lower bracket 243, and a lower positioning wheel 244 connected in sequence. The lower bracket 243 includes a second guide rod segment 2431 and a second mounting segment 2432. The lower positioning wheel 244 is rotatably mounted on the second mounting segment 2432. The radial dimension of the second guide rod segment 2431 is smaller than the maximum radial dimension of the second mounting segment 2432. The second elastic member 241 is sleeved on the second guide rod segment 2431. Both ends are fixedly connected to the top wall of the horizontal plate 212 and the second mounting section 2432 respectively, so that the lower positioning wheel 244 and the bottom wall of the inverted L-shaped hanging rail 12 abut against each other. The free end of the lower positioning member 242 is located on the lower side of the second guide hole 2121. The connecting end of the lower positioning member 242 passes through the second guide hole 2121 and is connected to the lower bracket 243. The radial dimension of the free end of the lower positioning member 242 is greater than the radial dimension of the second guide hole 2121. The free end of the side positioning member 232 is engaged with the bottom wall of the horizontal plate 212.
[0044] In the embodiment, the second guide hole 2121 is located on the second horizontal plate segment and extends in the vertical direction, the free end of the lower positioning member 242 is in abutting engagement with the bottom wall of the horizontal plate 212, and the radial dimension of the second mounting segment 2432 is greater than that of the second guide hole 2121 and is in abutting engagement with the horizontal plate 212. In this way, the movement of the lower support 243 is limited, so as to avoid the situation that the lower support 243 moves excessively out of the second guide hole 2121 and causes the second buffer limiting portion 24 to fail. The second guide hole 2121 and the second guide rod segment 2431 are in limiting engagement, so as to guide the movement of the lower support 243 and avoid the situation that the movement deviates.
[0045] Specifically, the lower positioning member 242 in the embodiment is a screw, the end of the second guide rod segment 2431 is provided with a threaded hole, and the lower positioning member 242 is arranged in the threaded hole. The second mounting segment 2432 is a strip structure with a concave cross section, and the structure of the lower positioning wheel 244 is the same as that of the side positioning wheel 234, including a connecting shaft and a wheel body.
