[0025] When the second magnet body of the movable plate 11 contacts the magnetic switch body 16, and the magnetic switch body 16 controls the electric telescopic rod body 12 to be closed, and at this time, the movable ring 10 is located at the bottom of the cavity, and the movable plate 11 is located in the movable cavity, and the end face of the movable plate 11 is flush with the inclined surface of the fixed seat 7.
[0026] In addition, an auxiliary guide rail 2 is arranged on the top of the guide rail body 1, and a plurality of limit assemblies 3 are arranged at equal distances on one side of the auxiliary guide rail 2. The limit assembly 3 includes a limit seat, and a T-shaped slider 31 is slidably arranged at the movable plate 11 in the limit seat. The T-shaped slider 31 is provided with a groove on the side of the movable plate 11, and U-shaped fixing seats are symmetrically installed on both sides of the groove. A limit plate 32 is rotatably installed on one side of the U-shaped fixing seat through a fixed axis, and a T-shaped connecting block 321 is installed at one end of the limit plate 32. It is worth noting that the limit assembly 3 is aligned with the power indicator light of the cabinet in the fire control room, and the limit assembly 3 and the auxiliary guide rail 2 are fixed by a plurality of bolts.
[0027] At the same time, a third magnet body 33 is fixedly installed in the groove above the U-shaped fixing seat, and one side of the limiting plate 32 is located at the third magnet body 33 and is provided with a magnetic material that is adapted to attract the third magnet body 33 .
[0028] At the same time, the T-shaped connecting block 321 is slidably arranged in the limit seat, and an arc-shaped guide rod 322 is installed on one side of the T-shaped connecting block 321, one end of the arc-shaped guide rod 322 is connected to the limit ring, a first sliding groove is opened at the T-shaped connecting block 321 in the limit seat, a second sliding groove is opened at the limit ring in the limit seat, and a third sliding groove is opened between the first sliding groove and the second sliding groove in the limit seat. The cross-sectional area of the third sliding groove is equal to the cross-sectional area of the arc-shaped guide rod 322, and a spring body 323 is provided on the outer wall of the arc-shaped guide rod 322 on one side in the second sliding groove.
[0029] In the present invention, the guide rail body 1 cooperates with the drive mechanism 4 to enable the six-axis robot body 5 and the inspection component 6 to perform horizontal linear motion, and the six-axis robot body 5 can enable the inspection component 6 to move vertically up and down.
[0030] In the normal state, the second magnet body of the movable plate 11 is in magnetic contact with the magnetic switch body 16 , and the movable ring 10 is located at the bottom of the cavity, and a portion of the movable plate 11 extends out of the fixing seat 7 .
[0031] When the driving mechanism 4 gradually moves toward the limit assembly 3, the T-shaped slider 31 of the limit assembly 3 moves along the inclined surface of the fixed seat 7 and slides into the limit seat. At the same time, the movable plate 11 is located above the two limit plates 32. Under the action of the limit plates 32, the movable plate 11 moves toward the first magnet body 13 in the movable cavity, and finally the first magnet body 13 and the first magnetic block 111 of the movable plate 11 are magnetically attracted to each other. At this time, while the first magnet body 13 on one side of the movable plate 11 moves, the other end of the movable plate 11 moves toward the adjustable extended switch button 14 and contacts its flexible protrusion 112. The movable ring 10 gradually moves toward the fixed ring 15 and contacts the button body 151 at the bottom of the fixed ring 15. The two button bodies 151 are connected through electrical signals to control the closing of the driving mechanism 4 and the opening of the six-axis manipulator body 5 respectively.
[0032] Among them, since the limit component 3 is aligned with the power indicator light of the cabinet in the fire control room, when the six-axis manipulator body 5 is in operation, the timing inspection module in the inspection component 6 is used to set and control the inspection cycle and time of the inspection robot, the fault module is used to detect and handle faults in the robot or fire protection system, the alarm module is used to issue an alarm when a fire hazard or robot failure is detected, the fire linkage module is used to perform linkage control with other equipment in the fire protection system, the obstacle avoidance module is used to perceive obstacles in the robot's surrounding environment in real time to ensure that the robot will not collide with obstacles when performing inspection tasks, the remote control module is used to remotely control the main body and the operator's mobile phone, the controller is used for the module controller module can integrate the information of each module, perform logical judgment and processing, and the monitoring camera body is used to capture real-time images and videos for monitoring and recording the inspection process.
[0033] When the delay time of the adjustable extension switch body 14 is reached, the adjustable extension switch body 14 is controlled to open the electric telescopic rod body 12 through an electrical signal connection, and the output end of the electric telescopic rod body 12 extends and pushes the first magnetic block 111 of its movable plate 11 away from the first magnet body 13, and then its movable ring 10 gradually moves away from the fixed ring 15, and then the two button bodies 151 are respectively controlled to open the drive mechanism 4 and control the closing of the six-axis manipulator body 5 through electrical signal connections.
[0034] Then, the driving mechanism 4 continues to operate, and during the movement of the T-shaped slider 31, the limit plate 32 rotates downward under the pressure of the movable plate 11 until the movable plate 11 passes through its limit plate 32. At this time, the movable plate 11 rotates downward under the action of gravity and the second magnet body, and the second magnet body of the movable plate 11 contacts the magnetic switch body 16, and the magnetic switch body 16 controls the closing of the electric telescopic rod body 12. During the downward rotation of the limit plate 32, the T-shaped connecting block 321 moves downward along the first slide groove, driving its arc-shaped guide rod 322 and the limit ring to move downward, and at the same time, one side of the limit ring contacts with the spring body 323, and the spring body 323 is in a deformed state.
[0035] When the top of the limit plate 32 loses the pressure of the movable plate 11, the limit ring moves away from the T-shaped connecting block 321 under the action of the spring body 323, and drives the limit plate 32 to rotate toward the third magnet body 33, and is magnetically adsorbed and fixed to the magnet body 33, thereby limiting and fixing the limit plate 32.
[0036] In the present invention, through the coordinated arrangement of the guide rail body 1, the drive mechanism 4, the auxiliary positioning assembly, and the limit assembly 3, it can be ensured that the inspection assembly can be accurately aligned with the power indicator light of the cabinet, thereby reducing the positioning error caused by factors such as mechanical structure wear and sensor aging. At the same time, the cabinet can be inspected through the inspection assembly.
