Description

Technical Field

[0002] During the construction of high-speed railway tunnels, gas is easily excavated as the tunnel is excavated, causing the gas content in the tunnel to exceed the standard. Although the tunnel is usually equipped with a ventilation system to deliver fresh air into the tunnel, as gas is continuously produced, the gas will accumulate in local areas of the tunnel, causing the local gas content to still exceed the standard. Sparks can easily cause an explosion, posing a huge safety hazard.

[0003] At present, during the tunnel construction process, special personnel are usually arranged to conduct inspections. The content of harmful gases such as gas in the tunnel is detected by detection instruments. If the gas content is detected to be excessive, an alarm will be issued in time, and the handling personnel will be notified to ventilate the area where the gas content exceeds the standard in time to reduce the concentration of gas in the local area. However, the manual inspection in the tunnel has a high labor intensity for the inspectors, and the inspection interval is long, making it difficult to conduct frequent inspections, which leads to the problem that the gas content in the local area of ​​the tunnel is still easily exceeded during tunnel construction.

In this embodiment, the supporting foot 82 includes a vertical rod 821, a supporting motor 822 and a supporting screw 823, the vertical rod 821 is slidably mounted on the sliding rod 812 along the vertical direction, the supporting motor 822 is mounted on the sliding rod 812, the supporting motor 822 is electrically connected to the power supply 7 and the control panel 5, the supporting screw 823 is vertically coaxially mounted on the output shaft of the supporting motor 822, and the supporting screw 823 is threadedly connected to the vertical rod 821.

[0049] Before the extension arm 63 is extended to adjust the position of the ventilation hose 62 and the sprinkler head 93, the control panel 5 sends an electrical signal to the drive motor 813 and the support motor 822, the drive motor 813 is started, and the output shaft of the drive motor 813 drives the screw 814 to rotate, the screw 814 drives the slide bar 812 to slide in the direction away from the guide sleeve 811, and the slide bar 812 can drive the support foot 82 to move in the direction away from the base 1, and then the output shaft of the support motor 822 drives the support screw 823 to rotate, driving the vertical rod 821 to approach the ground and abut against the ground, and the support feet 82 on different sides of the base 1 extend from the base 1 and abut against the ground, so that different sides of the base 1 can be supported, thereby improving the stability of the base 1 and reducing the possibility of tipping over due to the center of gravity of the base 1 being shifted due to the expansion of the extension arm 63.

[0050] The implementation principle of the intelligent inspection robot for a gas tunnel in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: the walking mechanism 2 drives the base 1 to move back and forth in the tunnel along the length direction of the tunnel. During the movement, the camera 14 shoots the environment in the tunnel. At the same time, the gas detector 3, the temperature sensor 10 and the humidity sensor 11 frequently and periodically detect the gas concentration, temperature and humidity at different positions in the tunnel, replacing the original manual inspection method. After detection, the gas detector 3, the temperature sensor 10 and the humidity sensor 11 send an electrical signal to the control panel 5. If the gas detector 3 detects that the gas concentration of the gas in the tunnel is higher than the set value, the control panel 5 controls the alarm 4 to sound an alarm to promote the construction personnel in the tunnel. At the same time, the control panel 5 controls the fan 61 and the extension arm 63 to blow air to the gas with higher gas concentration in a targeted manner to reduce the gas concentration of the gas in the local area, effectively improving the problem that the local gas content of the tunnel is prone to exceed the standard during tunnel construction, and can also reduce dust in the area with higher dust concentration in the tunnel through the spraying mechanism 9, thereby reducing the dust concentration in the working environment of the construction personnel in the tunnel.

[0051] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
