[0023] Specific usage and function of this embodiment: In the present invention, first, when the automatic inspection function is needed during the ship inspection process, the base 1 can be installed on the dedicated driving guide rail of the ship by assembling the slide rail 2 of appropriate specifications at its bottom, and the base 1 can be connected with the slide rail 2 and the guide rail to realize the rapid inspection function of the base 1 along the predetermined route; After the base 1 is assembled, the gas cylinder 5 filled with helium is installed inside the storage box 3, and the storage box 3 and the gas cylinder 5 placed inside are pushed into the inner position of the groove opened in the base 1 by manually holding the handle 4 fixedly connected to the front end of the storage box 3, and the gas cylinder 5 is connected to the air pipe 12 wrapped around the outer side of the roller 7. Then, when it is necessary to use the lifting function for inspection work, the valve in the gas cylinder 5 can be opened, and the gas in the gas cylinder 5 can be pumped into the internal position of the air bag 13 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the support frame 14 through the air pipe 12, and the motor A8 installed on the outside of the side plate 6 can be started to rotate the roller 7 to release the air pipe 12, and the air bag 13 can be filled with helium and generate buoyancy through the release of the air pipe 12, and the buoyancy generated by the air bag 13 can be used to push the support frame 14 to quickly rise along the longitudinal groove opened in the guide frame 10 through the slider 15 fixedly connected to the outside thereof, and after the support frame 14 is raised, the inspection work of the ship's environment can be carried out through the inspection device 21 installed on the outside of the central controller 19; When the support frame 14 is lifted by the airbag 13, it will not move as fast as in the case of rigid drive during the ascending process. However, the flexible lifting of the airbag 13 can provide sufficient reaction time for the surrounding personnel during the upward movement of the support frame 14. At the same time, the lifting of the airbag 13 can ensure that the support frame 14 will not produce a severe collision even if it collides with other facilities on the ship during the upward movement, thereby achieving a more practical purpose. When the support frame 14 is moving upward, the slider 15 fixedly connected to the outside of the support frame 14 will slide along the longitudinal groove provided in the guide frame 10. When the slider 15 contacts the proximity switch 11 installed in the guide frame 10, if the support frame 14 still needs to be raised to inspect the ship, the guide frame 10 can be pushed upward by starting the electric push rod 9 installed on the top of the base 1 to continue to be used as a guide structure for the rise of the support frame 14.

When the central controller 19 rises with the support frame 14, the rangefinder 27 installed on the outside of the turntable 26 and the rangefinder 27 on the top of the turntable 26 will continuously identify and judge the surrounding environment, and synchronously feed back to the central controller 19 for processing. When the central controller 19 detects that there is an obstacle in the current rising environment, the pump A16 and the pump B17 installed at the bottom of the support frame 14 can be started to deflate and inflate the telescopic tube 18 in the direction where the central controller 19 needs to move and avoid, and the inflation of the telescopic tube 18 can drive the central controller 19 to move along the slide groove opened in the support frame 14 through the guide plate 20 to perform multi-directional automatic intelligent avoidance operations, thereby achieving a more practical purpose. The air shower 22 arranged on the outside of the central controller 19 can also continuously clean the lens of the patrol device 21 with air showers when the patrol device 21 inspects the condition of the ship, thereby achieving a more accurate inspection.
