[0051] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a specific embodiment of the material surface processing robot of the present invention is used to process the material surface of an ore-heating furnace. An ore-heating furnace is also called an arc furnace or a resistance furnace, and is mainly used for reducing and smelting ores to produce various ferroalloys, industrial silicon, calcium carbide and other products. The ore-heating furnace includes a furnace body, an electrode system, a charging system and a smoke exhaust system. The ore-heating furnace uses the arc heat generated by the electrodes and the resistance heat of the charge to melt the charge and cause a reduction reaction. The current is introduced into the furnace through the electrodes, and an arc is generated between the electrodes and the charge, and the high temperature of the arc melts the charge. At the same time, the resistance of the charge itself also generates heat, which further promotes the melting and reaction of the charge. The ore-heating furnace is mainly used in ferroalloys, industrial silicon, calcium carbide and other industries. For example, in ferroalloy production, it can be used to produce ferrosilicon, ferromanganese, ferrochrome, etc.; in industrial silicon production, it is one of the main production equipment; in calcium carbide production, lime and coke are reacted in the ore-heating furnace to generate calcium carbide. Since a large amount of electrical energy is required to maintain high temperature, the energy consumption of the ore-heating furnace is relatively high.

By using a robotic arm and various tools, the material surface conditions and the position status of the robot are monitored in real time through sensors, and feedback is given to the control system to adjust the movement of the robot.

[0055] In this embodiment, a rotating platform is arranged between the vehicle body structure and the mobile mechanism 1, and the rotating platform includes a rotating outer ring and a fixed inner ring that cooperate with each other, the fixed inner ring is installed on the upper part of the mobile mechanism 1, and the rotating outer ring is installed on the lower part of the vehicle body structure.

The vehicle body structure is installed above the moving mechanism 1 through a rotating table, and can rotate relative to the moving mechanism 1. The operating arm is installed on the vehicle body structure, which is used to automatically process the material surface. The operating arm can be installed with different operating tools as needed to meet the established requirements. The operating arm can be extended and extended and pitched relative to the vehicle body structure. The movement of the moving mechanism 1, the rotation of the vehicle body structure, and the movement of the operating arm all rely on electronic control and hydraulic drive, and need to introduce power, signals and hydraulic connections through the connecting mechanism.

The hydraulic power required by the working part of the lower chassis of the vehicle body structure enters the oil chamber 429 of the hydraulic sleeve 427 through the hydraulic oil inlet oil port 428 on the hydraulic sleeve 427, and the oil chamber 429 is connected to the oil inlet port 425 on the annular tube 423, enters the annular tube 423, and then passes through the oil outlet 426 at the bottom of the annular tube 423 as the hydraulic oil outlet, thereby transmitting the hydraulic power to the lower chassis of the vehicle body structure and the moving mechanism 1 when the upper part of the vehicle body structure is rotating.

[0083] The electrical connector 3 and the electro-hydraulic connector 4 enable the robot to have very strong flexibility when working in special harsh working conditions, avoid safety hazards, improve the reliability and working performance of the whole machine, and meet the application requirements of various working conditions. When the signal line and hydraulic oil pass through at the same time, it is necessary to ensure that the signal line has good insulation and protection to avoid being corroded by the hydraulic oil; it is best to have isolation measures between the two to prevent the signal line from being squeezed and damaged. In this embodiment, the electrical connection component 41 is used to rotate and cooperate to realize the transfer of the signal line, and then the electro-hydraulic connection component 42 is used to rotate and cooperate to realize the rotation connection and cooperation of the hydraulic pipeline at the same time, which is not affected by the rotation of the vehicle body structure, and can pass the signal lead-in line 7 through the hollow structure 40, and realize the isolation between the electrical signal transmission and the hydraulic connection, thereby improving reliability. The hollow structure 40 is located at the rotation center of the vehicle body, so when the vehicle body structure rotates relative to the moving mechanism 1, the position of the hollow structure 40 does not change, and the oil outlet 426 of the ring pipe 423 is also basically in the center position. The oil pipe connected to it is always in the center position and will not change its position relative to the vehicle body structure when the robot posture changes, thereby avoiding pipeline interference and entanglement caused by position changes. The signal lead-in wire 7 and the hydraulic pipeline will not be intertwined or entangled, thereby improving the safety of the robot.

[0084] It can be seen from the above technical solution that the advantages and positive effects of the material surface processing robot of the present invention are:

[0085] In the present invention, an electric connector 3 is used to introduce electric power, and an electric-hydraulic connector 4 is used to realize the reasonable layout of the electric control and hydraulic control inside the robot, which can improve the connection and layout of the electric control and hydraulic control of the robot, and improve the reliability and safety of material surface processing, which has a very huge progressive significance.

[0086] Those skilled in the art should understand that the specific structures and processes shown in the above specific embodiments are only exemplary and not restrictive. Moreover, those skilled in the art can combine the various technical features shown above in various possible ways to form new technical solutions, or make other changes, which are all within the scope of the present invention.
