Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of crawler chassis, and in particular relates to a crawler chassis device with variable ground contact pressure ratio. Background Art

[0002] Crawler chassis is a kind of traveling device widely used on complex roads. The current crawler chassis is mainly composed of traveling mechanism, crawler, driving wheel, track roller, supporting roller, tensioning device, power unit and guide wheel. The supporting roller, driving wheel, track roller, guide wheel and tensioning device are all installed on the traveling mechanism, and the crawler works with these wheels. The driving wheel of the power unit rotates, and the gear on the driving wheel engages with the track chain, continuously rolling up the crawler from the back. The grounded crawler exerts a backward force on the ground, and the ground correspondingly exerts a forward reaction force on the crawler, which is the driving force that pushes the machine forward. The traditional ordinary crawler chassis cannot change the crawler ground contact area, has a low running speed, has a large weight, and the contact pressure between the crawler and the ground is uneven, which will cause great damage to the road surface. Therefore, in order to effectively improve the flexibility and adaptability of the crawler chassis, the crawler chassis structure needs to be upgraded.

[0003] At present, the designs for crawler chassis mainly include: the Chinese invention patent with application announcement number CN111361645A and titled "An all-terrain four-track chassis and agricultural machinery" discloses an all-terrain four-track chassis, including a frame, a flat crawler walking mechanism, a body leveling mechanism, and a steering mechanism; the number of flat crawler walking mechanisms is four groups, which are distributed in a rectangular shape, and each group of flat crawler walking mechanisms is installed on the frame through a group of body leveling mechanisms; the steering mechanism is located between the last two groups of flat crawler walking mechanisms, and drives the last two groups of flat crawler walking mechanisms to turn synchronously. After adopting this structure, the center of gravity of the whole machine tends to the geometric center of the body, making the body more stable on terrain with a large slope, and the frame is horizontal and vertical, which effectively prevents the body from tilting and can work better. The application publication number is CN116729513A, a deformable crawler chassis discloses a deformable crawler chassis based on dual drive motors and dual servos control, which is applied to the obstacle crossing of a low-lying crawler robot chassis, and includes four parts: a front crawler group, a rear crawler group, a deformable clutch, and a frame. The front crawler group and the rear crawler group directly contact the ground to achieve basic movement; the deformable clutch is used to change the front crawler group between the first clutch position, the second clutch position, and the third clutch position, thereby changing the shape of the chassis to adapt to different terrains; the frame is used to fix the front crawler group, the rear crawler group, and the deformable clutch. The deformable crawler chassis of the present invention makes up for the problems of large space occupation of traditional high-passability crawler chassis and low load capacity of traditional deformable crawler chassis, realizes simple installation of the crawler chassis, simple working principle analysis, and realizes high-performance obstacle crossing of the low-height crawler robot chassis with a more streamlined and reliable structure.

[0004] The above invention patents have optimized and improved the structure of the crawler chassis, which has improved the stability of the crawler chassis during driving to a certain extent, but cannot solve the problems of excessive ground contact pressure and uneven ground contact pressure, which leads to ground damage and low driving speed. The present invention can realize that the crawler chassis can autonomously change the contact area of ​​the crawler according to different ground environments, thereby reducing damage to the ground and increasing the driving speed, and enhancing the adaptability and flexibility of the whole machine.

[0063] The pressure sensor 102 detects the pressure of the ground on the crawler 101 and transmits it to the circuit control group 4;

[0064] The circuit control group 4 compares the pressure signal detected by the pressure sensor 102 with the preset value. When the pressure signal detected by the pressure sensor 102 is less than the preset value, the circuit control group 4 controls the extension and contraction amount of the electric cylinder device to increase, thereby increasing the distance between the upper layer 208 of the frame and the chassis 209 of the frame, driving the pressure rod 307 to lower the height of the guide wheel 301, and then adjusting the angle between the section between the guide wheel 301 and the fixed wheel 302 in the V rod 304 and the horizontal plane. Preferably, the maximum angle can be increased to 35°, thereby increasing the contact area between the crawler 101 and the ground. Fig.10 As shown;

[0065] When the pressure signal detected by the pressure sensor 102 is greater than the preset value, the circuit control group 4 controls the extension and contraction of the electric cylinder device to decrease, thereby reducing the distance between the upper frame 208 and the frame chassis 209, driving the pressure rod 307 to increase the height of the guide wheel 301, and reducing the contact area between the crawler 101 and the ground. Fig.11 shown.
