[0048] Example 2
[0049] like Figure 1-5, 11-15 The six-turn bucket 21 in the present invention may be a spiral material-taking structure 24; the structure of the spiral material-taking structure 24 is: it includes a barrel cover 241, a spiral barrel 242, a servo motor 244, a spiral fan wheel 245 and a spiral fan wheel drive shaft 246, the lower side of the barrel cover 241 is fixedly provided with a spiral barrel 242, the middle part of the spiral barrel 242 is vertically provided with a spiral fan wheel drive shaft 246, the lower part of the spiral fan wheel drive shaft 246 is spirally distributed with a plurality of spiral fan wheels 245, the upper part of the spiral fan wheel drive shaft 246 extends through the upper side of the barrel cover 241 or is connected to the lower side of the barrel cover 241, the upper side of the barrel cover 241 is provided with a servo motor 244, and the power output end of the servo motor 244 is power-connected to the upper part of the spiral fan wheel drive shaft 246.

The power output end of the servo motor 244 passes through the interior of the cylinder cover 241. The power output end of the servo motor 244 is connected to the upper part of the spiral impeller drive shaft 246 via a belt drive structure. The lower end of the spiral impeller drive shaft 246 is flush with the lower end of the spiral cylinder 242. The lower end of the rotating surface of the spiral impeller 245 located at the lowermost side of the spiral impeller drive shaft 246 is flush with the lower end of the spiral cylinder 242.

[0050] The connecting plate 243 of the present invention is connected to the power end of the six-axis robot, and is correspondingly inserted into the mash in the ground cylinder. The servo motor 244 drives the spiral fan wheel transmission shaft 246 to drive the spiral fan wheel 245 to rotate, and the mash in the ground cylinder is transmitted into the spiral barrel 242. Since the area of the spiral fan wheel 245 is large, and the multiple spirally distributed spiral fan wheels 245 form a continuous shielding in the vertical direction, and there is more moisture in the mash, it is easy to form agglomerates. After the mash is transferred into the spiral barrel 242, the spiral fan wheel 245 stops rotating, and almost no mash is spilled from the bottom of the spiral barrel 242, thereby realizing continuous and automatic material removal.
[0051] The rest of the structure is the same as that of the first embodiment.
[0052] The present invention mainly includes: a walking system 1, a tool system 2, a quick change system 3 and a control system 4.
[0053] Travel system 1 is a tracked vehicle with a track width less than the spacing between the underground cylinders. The tracked vehicle drives the other systems to move and retrieve materials from the underground cylinders throughout the workshop. Tool system 2 consists of a six-claw bucket, a tailings cleaning tool, and a cylinder cleaning tool, used for underground cylinder retrieving, tailings cleaning, and cleaning, respectively. Quick-change system 3 includes a six-axis robot and a quick-change mechanism. By controlling the opening and closing of the quick-change mechanism, the required tools can be quickly switched. The quick-change mechanism is installed at the end of the six-axis robot and is connected to the tool end through the quick-change mechanism. The robot control system controls the six-axis robot's movements.
[0054] The control system 4 controls the movement of the crawler vehicle and the robot, and the pneumatic control component controls the connection and disconnection of the quick change.
[0055] When retrieving materials from the ground cylinder, the crawler vehicle moves to the corresponding position; the robot's quick-change end moves to the top of the retrieving quick-change end, is positioned by pins, and the robot is connected to the six-claw bucket; the robot moves with the six-claw bucket and hovers just above the ground cylinder, and the 3D camera on the six-claw bucket takes pictures to identify the center position of the ground cylinder and the material surface height. The software sends instructions to the robot through calculation, and the robot takes action after reading the instructions, thereby controlling the digging position and digging height of the six-claw bucket. The motor of the six-claw bucket rotates forward, the bucket opens, and the robot carries the six-claw bucket into the ground cylinder and inserts it into the material. The motor of the six-claw bucket reverses, the bucket closes, and the robot moves the six-claw bucket out of the ground cylinder and moves it above the material car to open and complete the digging. After two or three digging operations, the visual system recognizes the position of the center of the material surface in the ground cylinder after digging and the remaining material around it close to the cylinder wall. There is a certain height difference. When this height difference reaches a certain level, the visual system determines that the next action requires a scraping operation and sends an instruction to the robot. The robot moves the six-claw bucket to the top of the ground cylinder. The visual system confirms the position of the ground cylinder and the remaining material on the cylinder wall again to prevent the bucket from being damaged by going too deep into the cylinder. The software sends the instruction to the robot through calculation. After reading the instruction, the robot drives the six-claw bucket to move so that one side is close to the cylinder wall. Finally, the robot rotates the sixth axis to complete the cylinder wall scraping operation. At this time, the height difference between the material surface of the ground cylinder close to the cylinder wall and the material surface in the center of the ground cylinder becomes smaller. The visual system determines that the next action is to perform digging. The above operations are repeated in sequence until the visual system determines that the remaining material in the ground cylinder does not need to be digged anymore, and all digging work of this ground cylinder is completed; when the digging work is completed, the control system determines to perform tail material cleaning. The robot needs to place the six-claw excavator bucket on the quick-change bracket seat on the side of the crawler vehicle. Specifically, insert the tool end support guide pin into the guide hole of the support block on the crawler end, and insert the copper sleeve on the tool end connecting plate into the two positioning pins on the quick-change bracket seat on the crawler vehicle to control the robot to disconnect from the six-claw excavator bucket.

[0057] When the ground cylinder cleaning work is performed, the quick-change end of the robot is moved to the top of the cylinder cleaning tool quick-change end, the robot is connected with the cylinder cleaning tool through positioning by the pin, the robot drives the cleaning brush to dip in the water bucket to take the pepper water into the ground cylinder, the cleaning brush is closely attached to the cylinder wall through the movement of each joint of the robot to clean the inside of the ground cylinder, and finally the cylinder cleaning tool is placed on the quick-change support seat at the side of the tracked vehicle.
[0058] The six-claw excavator is connected with the robot through the quick-change mechanism, and the six-claw excavator and the robot cooperate with each other to realize the functions of material taking and scraping of the ground cylinder.
