For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0023] The present invention is described in detail below.
[0024] like Figure 1-Figure 12 As shown: A magnetic steel structure high-altitude obstacle-crossing intelligent welding robot comprises a body 1 with a magnetic attraction component 2 at the bottom, a welding mechanism 3 installed on the body 1, a moving mechanism 4 connected to the body 1 and used to control the movement and steering of the body 1, and an obstacle-crossing mechanism 5 installed on the body 1; the steering described here includes the change of the moving direction of the body 1 and the turning of the entire body 1; The vehicle body 1 includes a bottom plate 11 for installing the welding mechanism 3 and a bottom plate 2 12 hinged to the bottom plate 11 and rotating around the X-axis direction; the obstacle crossing mechanism 5 includes an obstacle crossing component 1 installed on the bottom plate 11 and connected to the bottom plate 2 12.
[0025] Through the articulation of the bottom plate 11 and the bottom plate 2 12, and through the obstacle crossing component 1, the angle formed by the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 1 11 is controlled to change; thus, the present invention has the ability to cross obstacles and the acute angle, obtuse angle or right angle formed by the surface of the steel member, and can move under different road conditions; when it moves to the welding position, welding can be performed through the welding mechanism 3; Specifically, when moving on a steel structure with a flat surface, the bottom surfaces of the bottom plate 11 and the bottom plate 2 12 are on the same plane; When the moving trajectory changes from a plane to an angle, the obstacle crossing mechanism 5 controls the bottom plate 2 12 to rotate around the X-axis direction, changing the angle formed by the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 1 11, so that the moving mechanism 4 can act on the surface of the steel structure with an angle or an obstacle (or obstacle protrusions, convex columns), and move on the surface of the steel structure. During the movement process, the magnetic attraction force of the magnetic attraction component 2 is used to adsorb the present invention to the steel structure to prevent the present invention from falling off.
[0026] In some possible implementations, in actual use, the surface of the steel structure is often curved, such as a cylindrical steel pipe column or a cylindrical steel pipe; in order to enable the present invention to move on a steel structure with a curved surface; like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 As shown, the vehicle body 1 further includes a bottom plate 3 13 hinged to the bottom plate 2 12 and rotating around the Y-axis direction, and a bottom plate 4 14 hinged to the bottom plate 3 13 and rotating around the X-axis direction; the bottom plate 4 14 and the bottom plate 1 11 are hinged to each other and rotate around the Y-axis direction; the hinge points of the bottom plate 1 11 and the bottom plate 2 12, and the hinge points of the bottom plate 3 13 and the bottom plate 4 14 are on the same straight line arranged along the X-axis direction; the hinge points of the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13, and the hinge points of the bottom plate 4 14 and the bottom plate 1 11 are on the same straight line arranged along the Y-axis direction; When moving on a steel structure with a flat surface, the bottoms of the bottom plate 11, the bottom plate 2 12, the bottom plate 3 13, and the bottom plate 4 14 are on the same plane; The bottom plate 11 is hinged to the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 2 12 rotates relative to the bottom plate 11 around the X-axis direction, the bottom plate 2 12 is hinged to the bottom plate 3 13 and the bottom plate 3 13 rotates relative to the bottom plate 2 12 around the Y-axis direction, the bottom plate 3 13 is hinged to the bottom plate 4 14 and the bottom plate 3 13 can rotate with the bottom plate 4 14 around the X-axis direction, the bottom plate 4 14 is hinged to the bottom plate 11 and the bottom plate 4 14 can rotate with the bottom plate 11 around the Y-axis direction; Figure 1 Place, Figure 2 It is shown that the sides of the bottom plate 11 and the bottom plate 2 12 close to the bottom plate 3 13 and the bottom plate 4 14 are coplanar, and the sides of the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13 close to the bottom plate 1 11 and the bottom plate 4 14 are coplanar; the sides of the bottom plate 3 13 and the bottom plate 4 14 close to the bottom plate 1 11 and the bottom plate 2 12 are coplanar, so that when the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13 are driven by the obstacle crossing mechanism 5 to move on the surface of the steel structure with an angle or the obstacle, the rotation angles of the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13 around the X-axis direction are consistent; When moving on a steel structure with a curved surface, the plane where the bottom plate 1 11 and the bottom plate 2 12 are located and the plane where the bottom plate 3 13 and the bottom plate 4 14 are located can change their angles around the Y axis, so that the moving mechanism 4 can always act on the steel structure with a curved surface, thereby making the present invention applicable to movement on steel structures with surfaces of different curvatures.
[0027] In some possible embodiments, the obstacle crossing mechanism 5 also includes an obstacle crossing component 2 installed on the bottom plate 4 14 and coordinated with the bottom plate 3 13; when moving on the steel structure surface with an angle or obstacle, the bottom plate 2 12 is driven to rotate around the X-axis direction by the obstacle crossing component 1, and at the same time, the bottom plate 3 13 is driven to rotate around the X-axis direction by the obstacle crossing component 2, thereby realizing the synchronous movement of the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13 around the X-axis direction.
[0028] In some possible implementations, in order to effectively control the movement of the vehicle body 1, the moving mechanism 4 includes a moving component 1 and a moving component 2 symmetrically arranged along the Y-axis direction; when there are only the bottom plate 11 and the bottom plate 2 12, the moving component 1 and the moving component 2 will be connected to the outer side surfaces of the bottom plate 1 11 and the bottom plate 2 12 respectively; When there are bottom plate 11, bottom plate 2 12, bottom plate 3 13, and bottom plate 4 14, the moving assembly 1 is installed on the outer sides of bottom plate 11 and bottom plate 2 12; the moving assembly 2 is installed on the outer sides of bottom plate 3 13 and bottom plate 4 14, and the moving mechanism 4 also includes a supporting roller 44 arranged at the bottom of the vehicle body 1; like Figure 4As shown, there are multiple groups of support rollers 44, which are arranged at the bottom of the bottom plate 11 and the bottom plate 2 12, and are used to effectively support the vehicle body 1; the multiple groups of support rollers 44 are on the same axis arranged along the Y-axis direction, and are located on the side of the bottom plate 11 and the bottom plate 2 12 close to the moving component 2; of course, they can also be arranged at the bottom of the bottom plate 3 13 and the bottom plate 4 14, which will not be repeated here, so as to achieve support for the bottom plate 11, the bottom plate 2 12, the bottom plate 3 13, and the bottom plate 4 14.
[0029] In some possible implementations, in order to effectively drive the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13 to rotate around the X-axis direction through the obstacle crossing mechanism 5, so that the present invention can have the ability to cross obstacles and the acute angle, obtuse angle or right angle formed by the steel structure; the obstacle crossing component 1 has the same structure as the obstacle crossing component 2 and is symmetrically arranged along the Y-axis direction; like Figure 2 As shown, the obstacle crossing component 1 includes a rotating shaft 113 installed on the bottom plate 11 and rotatably matched with the bottom plate 11, a driving motor 1 that is transmission-connected to one end of the rotating shaft 113 and installed on the bottom plate 11, and a driving arm 151 that is connected to the other end of the rotating shaft 113 and the other end of which is slidably hinged to the bottom plate 2 12; the axial direction of the rotating shaft 113 is arranged along the X-axis direction; The obstacle crossing component 2 includes a rotating shaft 2 installed on the bottom plate 4 14 and rotatably matched with the bottom plate 4 14, a driving motor 2 which is transmission-connected to one end of the rotating shaft 2 and installed on the bottom plate 4 14, and a driving arm 2 52 which is connected to the other end of the rotating shaft 2 and slidably hinged to the bottom plate 3 13; the axis of the rotating shaft 2 is arranged along the X-axis direction and is in the same straight line as the axis of the rotating shaft 1 113; Specifically, drive motor 1 is located in base plate 11, one end of shaft 113 is transmission connected to drive motor 1, and the other end passes through the outside of base plate 11 to connect with drive arm 1 51; similarly, drive motor 2 is located in base plate 4 14, one end of shaft 2 is transmission connected to drive motor 2, and the other end passes through the outside of base plate 2 12 to connect with drive arm 2 52.
[0030] Specifically, when moving to the surface of a steel structure with an angle or an obstacle, when the part is about to move from one surface to another, first control the permanent magnets of the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13 to retract to reduce the adsorption force, and at the same time, the permanent magnets on the bottom plate 1 11 and the bottom plate 4 14 are extended to increase the adsorption force to avoid falling off; two sets of rotating shafts are respectively driven to rotate by two sets of driving motors (driving motor 1 and driving motor 2), so that the plane where the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13 are located is located above the other surface of the steel structure, and the entire vehicle body 1 is controlled to move forward on this surface through the moving mechanism, and drives the bottom plate 1 11 , the bottom plate four 14 moves toward the surface. When the bottom plate one 11 and the bottom plate four 14 move to the surface, the obstacle crossing component one and the obstacle crossing component two make the entire vehicle body 1 act on the surface, and then the permanent magnets of the bottom plate two 12 and the bottom plate three 13 are controlled to extend to increase the adsorption force, and at the same time, the permanent magnets on the bottom plate one 11 and the bottom plate four 14 are retracted to reduce the adsorption force; after the bottom plate one 11 and the bottom plate four 14 move to the surface, the reverse rotation of the driving motor (driving motor one, driving motor two) changes the angle of the driving arm one 51 and the driving arm two 52 on the surface, and makes the angle between the driving arm one 51 and the driving arm two 52 and the surface 0°; It should be noted that when the surface of the steel structure is a plane, the driving arm 1 51 and the driving arm 2 52 will be arranged along the Y-axis direction.
[0031] In some possible implementations, a connecting shaft 121 is provided on the bottom plate 12 to be slidably hinged to the driving arm 1 51 and arranged along the X-axis direction; a connecting shaft 2 is provided on the bottom plate 13 to be slidably hinged to the driving arm 2 52 and arranged along the X-axis direction; the axes of the connecting shaft 121 and the connecting shaft 2 are on the same straight line; Specifically, Fig.11 , Fig.12 As shown, a slide groove 511 is provided on one side of the driving arm 1 51 close to the bottom plate 2 12 and along its length direction, one end of the connecting shaft 121 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 2 12 and the other end is slidably disposed in the slide groove 511 and is hingedly matched with the driving arm 1 51; Similarly, a slide groove 2 is provided on one side of the driving arm 2 52 close to the bottom plate 3 13 and along its length direction, one end of the connecting shaft 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 3 13 and the other end is slidably provided in the slide groove 2 and hingedly cooperated with the driving arm 2 52; Specifically, when adjusting the angle between the bottom plate 11 and the bottom plate 2 12, the driving motor 1 drives the rotating shaft 113 to rotate, thereby causing the driving arm 151 connected to the rotating shaft 113 and located on the outside of the bottom plate 11 to rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 113. Since the other end of the driving arm 151 is slidingly hinged to the bottom plate 2 12, the bottom plate 2 12 is driven to rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 113 until the rotation angle between the bottom plate 11 and the bottom plate 2 12 meets the requirements. The rotation control of the bottom plate 3 13 is the same as that of the bottom plate 11, and will not be repeated here.
[0032] In some possible implementations, in order to effectively achieve adsorption of the vehicle body 1 and the surface of the steel structure so that the present invention does not fall off during movement, the magnetic attraction component 2 includes several groups of permanent magnets arranged at the bottom of the vehicle body 1, and of course, electromagnets can also be used.
[0033] In some possible implementations, in order to prevent the permanent magnet from falling off due to the reduction of the adsorption force when the distance between the permanent magnet and the steel structure surface increases when crossing obstacles or moving on the surface of a steel structure with an angle; the permanent magnet is telescopically matched with the vehicle body 1, and a vertical telescopic component connected to the permanent magnet is arranged inside the vehicle body 1; and a slide groove is arranged on the vehicle body 1 for use with the permanent magnet.
[0034] If the distance between the permanent magnet and the surface of the steel structure increases, the adsorption capacity will weaken. By controlling the permanent magnet to move closer to the surface of the steel structure, the adsorption force between the two can be increased. Furthermore, the vertical telescopic assembly is used to telescope each group of permanent magnets along the Z-axis direction, thereby changing the distance between the permanent magnets and the surface of the steel structure to adjust the adsorption force between the vehicle body 1 and the surface of the steel structure; when the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13 are adjusted, the permanent magnets in the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13 are first controlled to shrink into the vehicle body 1 to reduce the adsorption force, and then the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13 are adjusted; when the adjustment is in place and the entire vehicle body can move normally, the permanent magnets in the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13 are controlled to extend to increase the adsorption force; In some possible implementations, in order to further enhance the adsorption of the present invention to the surface of the steel structure, a magnetic attraction component 2 is provided on the moving mechanism 4, and the magnetic attraction component 2 is a permanent magnet in a strip shape.

[0039] The moving mechanism 4 adopts a four-wheel drive structure, so that the moving mechanism 4 can effectively drive the entire device to move.
[0040] In some possible implementations, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the welding mechanism 3 includes a support shaft 31 installed on a base plate 11, a welding robot arm 33 installed on the support shaft 31 and rotatably cooperated with the support shaft 31, a welding gun 34 installed on the welding robot arm 33, a path identification module 32 installed on the support shaft 31 and used for path identification, and a weld identification module 35 installed on the welding robot arm 33 and used for weld identification.

[0044] like Figure 6 As shown, a method for using the magnetic steel structure high-altitude obstacle-crossing intelligent welding robot described above specifically includes the following steps: The path recognition module 32 recognizes the path. During the movement, the vehicle body 1 adaptively adjusts the angles formed by the bottom plate 11 and the bottom plate 4 14, the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13 according to the surface shape of the steel structure, and adjusts the corresponding permanent magnets to meet the adsorption requirements; When moving to the surface of a steel structure with an angle or an obstacle, when starting to move from one surface to another, first retract the permanent magnets on the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13 to reduce the adsorption force, and at the same time extend the permanent magnets on the bottom plate 1 11 and the bottom plate 4 14 to increase the adsorption force and avoid falling off; control the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13 to rotate around the X-axis direction through the obstacle crossing mechanism 5 to change the angle formed by the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 1 11, the bottom plate 3 13 and the bottom plate 4 14, so as to adapt to moving on the surface of a steel structure with an angle or an obstacle, and drive the bottom plate 1 11 and the bottom plate 4 14 to move to another surface through two sets of driving wheel groups 1 41, and change the adsorption force by controlling the expansion and contraction of the permanent magnets during the movement to avoid falling off; When the entire vehicle body 1 is located on another surface, the obstacle crossing mechanism 5 controls the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13 to move toward the side close to the surface; then the permanent magnets of the bottom plate 2 12 and the bottom plate 3 13 are controlled to extend to increase the adsorption force, and at the same time, the permanent magnets on the bottom plate 1 11 and the bottom plate 4 14 are retracted to reduce the adsorption force; after the bottom plate 1 11 and the bottom plate 4 14 move on the surface, the reverse rotation of the driving motor (driving motor 1 and driving motor 2) changes the angle of the driving arm 1 51 and the driving arm 2 52 on the surface, and makes the angle between the driving arm 1 51 and the driving arm 2 52 and the surface 0°; When moving to the weld position, the weld identification module 35 identifies the weld and controls the welding gun 34 to perform welding through the welding robot arm 33; during welding, by controlling the moving mechanism 4 to move synchronously along the length direction of the weld, accurate and stable welding operations are achieved, improving welding quality and efficiency, while reducing welding defects caused by human factors.
