Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The tracked chassis is a walking device widely used in complex road surfaces. The current tracked chassis mainly comprises a walking mechanism, a track, a driving wheel, a track roller, a supporting roller, a tensioning device, a power device and a guide wheel. The supporting roller, the driving wheel, the track roller, the guide wheel and the tensioning device are all installed on the walking mechanism, and the track cooperates with these wheels. The power device drives the rotation of the driving wheel, and the teeth on the driving wheel are engaged with the track chain to continuously wind the track from the rear. The track in contact with the ground exerts a backward force on the ground, and the ground correspondingly exerts a forward reaction force on the track, which is the driving force for driving the machine to move forward. The conventional ordinary tracked chassis cannot change the track ground contact area, has a low running speed, a large self weight and an uneven track-ground contact pressure, which can cause great damage to the road surface. Therefore, in order to effectively improve the flexibility and self-adaptability of the tracked chassis, the structure of the tracked chassis needs to be upgraded.

[0003] The current design of tracked chassis mainly includes: a Chinese invention patent with the application publication number CN111361645A and the name of "all-terrain four-tracked chassis and agricultural machinery" discloses an all-terrain four-tracked chassis, which comprises a vehicle frame, a flat track walking mechanism, a vehicle body leveling mechanism and a steering mechanism. The number of flat track walking mechanisms is four, which are distributed in a rectangular shape. Each flat track walking mechanism is installed on the vehicle frame through a set of vehicle body leveling mechanisms. The steering mechanism is located between the rear two flat track walking mechanisms and drives the rear two flat track walking mechanisms to perform synchronous steering. After adopting this structure, the center of gravity of the whole machine tends to the geometric center of the vehicle body, so that the vehicle body is more stable on a terrain with a large slope, the vehicle frame is horizontal and vertical, effectively preventing the machine body from tilting, and better operation can be achieved. A deformable tracked chassis with the application publication number CN116729513A discloses a deformable tracked chassis based on double-drive motors and double-rudder control, which is applied to the obstacle crossing of a low-crouching tracked robot chassis and comprises a front track group, a rear track group, a deformation clutch and a vehicle frame. The front track group and the rear track group directly contact the ground to realize basic movement; the deformation clutch is used to change the front track group between the first clutch position, the second clutch position and the third clutch position, so as to change the shape of the chassis to adapt to different terrains; the vehicle frame is used to fix the front track group, the rear track group and the deformation clutch. The deformable tracked chassis of the present application solves the problems of large space occupation of the traditional high-passability tracked chassis and low load capacity of the traditional deformable tracked chassis, realizes simple installation and simple working principle analysis of the tracked chassis, and realizes high-performance obstacle crossing of the low-height tracked robot chassis with a more simplified and reliable structure.

[0004] The above invention patents all optimize and improve the structure of the track chassis, to some extent, improve the stability of the track chassis in driving, but cannot solve the problems of ground damage and low driving speed caused by excessive ground contact pressure and uneven ground contact pressure. The present application can change the ground contact area of the track according to different ground environments, thereby reducing the damage to the ground and improving the driving speed, and enhancing the adaptability and flexibility of the whole machine.

[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 stretching and retracting amount of the electric cylinder device to be large, reduces the distance between the upper layer 208 of the vehicle frame and the vehicle frame chassis 209, drives the pressure rod 307 to lower the height of the guide wheel 301, and then adjusts the angle between the section of the V-shaped rod 304 between the guide wheel 301 and the fixed wheel 302 and the horizontal plane, preferably, which can be increased to 35° at the maximum, and the contact area of the track 101 and the ground is increased, as shown in Figure 10 ;

[0065] When the pressure signal detected by the pressure sensor 102 is greater than the preset value, the circuit control group 4 controls the stretching and retracting amount of the electric cylinder device to be small, reduces the distance between the upper layer 208 of the vehicle frame and the vehicle frame chassis 209, drives the pressure rod 307 to increase the height of the guide wheel 301, and reduces the contact area of the track 101 and the ground, as shown in Figure 11 .
