Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0025] The following embodiment of the present application takes the structure and control method of a crawling robot dedicated to an underwater gate slot space as an example to explain the solution of the present application in detail, but this embodiment cannot limit the scope of protection of the present application.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the present invention provides a crawling robot dedicated to underwater gate slot space, comprising: Robot host 1; The door slot crawling installation layer 2 is connected to the robot host 1; A stainless steel frame 3 is arranged on the door slot crawling installation layer 2, and a bottom crawling wheel 4 is arranged at the bottom of the stainless steel frame 3, and side crawling wheels 5 are arranged on both sides; The side crawling wheel telescopic mechanism 7 is arranged inside the stainless steel frame 3; The motor 8 is arranged in the motor fixing seat 9, one side of which is connected to the robot main body 1, and the other side of which is connected to the side crawling wheel telescopic mechanism 7.

[0027] In the embodiment of the present invention, the arrangement of the bottom crawling wheels and the side crawling wheels enables the robot to move flexibly in the gate slot space, and both straight-line forward movement and lateral adjustment become easy and convenient, which significantly improves the efficiency of obstacle removal operations. The use of a stainless steel frame provides a solid support structure for the robot, ensuring its stability and durability during operation; the design of the side crawling wheel telescopic mechanism enables the side crawling wheels to be flexibly retracted and retracted according to actual needs, further enhancing the robot's ability to operate in narrow spaces and improving the thoroughness and accuracy of obstacle removal; the setting of the motor provides strong power support for the robot's crawling and operation, ensuring that it has sufficient power to clear various obstacles, thereby improving the operating effect.

[0028] In the specific implementation process of the present invention, the robot host 1 is connected to the door slot crawling installation layer 2, and a control system is provided inside the robot host 1. On the groove crawling installation layer 2, a bottom crawling wheel 4 is provided at the bottom of the stainless steel frame 3, the stainless steel frame 3 is provided with a side crawling wheel 5, and a side crawling wheel telescopic mechanism 7 is provided inside the stainless steel frame 3. The side crawling wheel telescopic mechanism 7 is connected to the motor 8. The motor 8 is controlled to work through the control system inside the robot host 1, and the robot host 1 controls the side crawling wheel telescopic mechanism 7 through the motor 8 to perform the task.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a crawling robot dedicated to underwater gate slot space also includes: The side crawling wheel telescopic mechanism 7 is fixedly arranged inside the stainless steel frame 3 and is connected to the side crawling wheel 5 through the compression spring 6.

[0030] In the embodiment of the present invention, this design enables the side crawling wheels to automatically adjust their positions when encountering gate slots of different widths, thereby enhancing the robot's adaptability to different working environments. The compression spring provides a certain preload force for the side crawling wheels, so that they can fit more stably on the side walls of the gate slots during crawling, thereby improving the crawling stability of the robot. The side crawling wheel telescopic mechanism is fixed inside the stainless steel frame and connected to the side crawling wheels through compression springs, thereby reducing manufacturing costs and maintenance difficulties. When the robot encounters an obstacle, the side crawling wheels can automatically adjust their positions under the action of the compression springs to better overcome the obstacle, thereby improving the robot's obstacle-crossing ability. The setting of the compression springs can also play a buffering role when the side crawling wheels encounter excessive pressure, thereby protecting the crawling wheels from damage. like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the side crawling wheel telescopic mechanism 7 includes: A fixed bottom plate 71 connected to the motor fixing base 9; The limiting seat 76 is connected to the fixed bottom plate 71; The screw rod fixes the bearing seat 72 and is connected to the limit seat 76; The support shaft 75 is arranged inside the limiting seat 76; A coupling 74 connected to the motor 8; The ball screw 73 is disposed inside the limit seat 76, with one side connected to the coupling 74 and the other side connected to the support shaft 75.

[0031] In the embodiment of the present invention, the connection between the fixed base plate and the motor fixing seat provides a stable base for the entire side crawling wheel telescopic mechanism. The connection between the limit seat and the fixed base plate, and the connection between the screw fixed bearing seat and the limit seat together constitute a precise limit on the movement of the ball screw, which is helpful to control the telescopic range of the side crawling wheel and improve the movement accuracy and stability of the robot. The motor is connected to the ball screw through a coupling to achieve efficient power transmission; the ball screw, as a precision transmission element, can convert the rotational motion of the motor into linear motion, thereby driving the telescopic movement of the side crawling wheel; the support shaft is arranged inside the limit seat and connected to the other side of the ball screw, thereby enhancing the load-bearing capacity of the entire telescopic mechanism, so that the side crawling wheel can more stably support the weight of the robot during the telescopic process; by driving the rotation of the ball screw driven by the motor, the telescopic position of the side crawling wheel can be flexibly controlled, thereby improving the adaptability and movement flexibility of the robot in different working environments.

[0033] In the embodiment of the present invention, the threaded connection between the ball screw and the screw nut ensures that the rotational motion can be efficiently converted into linear motion. The design of the ball reduces friction, makes the transmission smoother, and improves the efficiency of energy transfer; due to the characteristics of the threaded connection, the ball screw can accurately control the moving distance of the support shaft when rotating, and the fixed connection between the screw nut and the support shaft provides a stable support for the entire telescopic mechanism.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the ball screw 73 passes through the screw fixing bearing seat 72, and the contact surface between the ball screw 73 and the screw fixing bearing seat 72 is a smooth surface.

[0035] In the embodiment of the present invention, the design of the smooth surface significantly reduces the friction between the ball screw and the screw fixing bearing seat. This helps to reduce energy consumption, reduce wear, and extend the service life of the components. The ball screw can transmit power more efficiently when rotating, thereby improving the transmission efficiency of the entire telescopic mechanism. The contact design of the smooth surface makes the ball screw more stable when moving, reduces vibration and noise, and improves the movement performance of the robot; the design of the smooth surface simplifies the maintenance process; the reduced friction and smooth movement characteristics help to improve the positioning accuracy and repeatability of the telescopic mechanism.

The parameter setting can ensure the stability and efficiency of the screw during movement, thereby improving the overall mechanical properties of the robot. The setting of the motor speed parameters enables the robot to move at the required speed, which helps to ensure the adaptability and flexibility of the robot in different application scenarios.

[0040] like Figure 7 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, according to the initialization setting, the location is updated to obtain an updated location, including: According to the initialization settings, through the formula: and ; To get the updated location; n is the number of revolutions of the screw, Is displacement is the current location is the initial position, is the lead of the screw, is the thread pitch, It is the angle.

[0041] In an embodiment of the present invention, through formula calculation, the number of revolutions that the screw needs to rotate and the resulting displacement can be accurately planned, thereby ensuring that the robot or related mechanism can accurately move to the target position. Taking into account the lead and pitch of the screw, the calculation process can optimize mechanical efficiency, reduce unnecessary energy loss, and ensure the smoothness of movement. The introduction of the angular displacement as a calculation parameter can enhance the control accuracy of the movement direction of the robot or mechanism, and enable precise operations in complex environments. Using formulas for calculations can simplify programming logic, making the robot control program easier to write and maintain, and reducing development costs and time. This calculation method can adapt to different working environments and task requirements, and different motion planning and control strategies can be achieved by simply adjusting the parameters in the initialization settings.

[0042] like Figure 7 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the target position coordinate information is obtained by calculating the error between the updated position and the target position, including: pass , to obtain the target position coordinate information, where , is the target location of error.

Knowing the precise coordinates and error information of the target position, the robot or system can optimize its path planning algorithm and select a more efficient and direct path to reach the target position; the precise target position coordinates and error information make the control strategy of the robot or system more precise and effective, and can achieve better performance under different environments and task requirements.

[0045] In an embodiment of the present invention, by calculating the center of the path and adjusting the path radius and angle according to the center, the robot can flexibly plan an arched path that adapts to different environments and task requirements, and introduce random factors and angle adjustment amounts so that the generated arched path has a certain degree of randomness and variability, thereby enhancing the robot's adaptability to different scenarios; by accurately calculating the center, radius and angle of the path, the robot can accurately control its motion trajectory to ensure accurate movement along the planned arched path. The planning of the arched path helps the robot to use space more efficiently and avoid unnecessary turns and pauses, thereby improving movement efficiency; mathematical formulas and geometric relationships are used for calculations to simplify the algorithm implementation of path planning and control.

[0046] like Figure 7 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the target angle and the number of rotations of the lead screw are calculated according to the positional relationship between the adjacent path points of the bow, so as to realize the control association between the motor and the lead screw, including: According to the position relationship of adjacent path points in the arch path, To get the target angle. and are the position coordinates of adjacent path points, is the target angle; According to the comparison target angle With current angle The difference determines the rotation direction and speed of the motor; According to the position relationship of adjacent path points in the arch path, and , to realize the control association between the motor and the screw, where: is the distance between the path points. is the number of revolutions of the screw, is the lead of the screw, is the thread pitch.
