[0024] The present invention discloses a tread-tooth type load vehicle, and the following specifically describes an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] Combined with Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the tread-tooth type load vehicle includes a vehicle frame, a traveling device, and a lifting mechanism. The traveling devices are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the vehicle frame. The traveling device includes a motor 6, a first traveling mechanism, a second traveling mechanism, and a plurality of tread teeth 5. The motor 6 is fixedly connected to the vehicle frame. The first traveling mechanism includes a first tread plate 101, a second tread plate 102, and a gear 2. There is a distance between the first tread plate 101 and the second tread plate 102. The first tread plate 101 is adjacent to the vehicle frame, and the first tread plate 101, the second tread plate 102 are fixedly connected to the vehicle frame. As Figure 6As shown in the figure, first tread plates 101 and second tread plates 102 are provided with first sliding grooves 20 on their edges. The second traveling mechanism is located between the first tread plates 101 and the second tread plates 102, and there are gaps between the second traveling mechanism and the first tread plates 101 and the second tread plates 102. The second traveling mechanism includes a first support plate 13 and a second support plate 14, and the first support plate 13 and the second support plate 14 are fixedly connected with a distance therebetween. As Figure 7 shown in the figure, each tread tooth 5 is located between the first support plate 13 and the second support plate 14, wherein the first support plate 13 is located on the left side of the tread tooth 5, and the second support plate 14 is located on the right side of the tread tooth 5. A second sliding groove 21 is provided at the edge of the first support plate 13 adjacent to the tread tooth 5, and a second sliding groove 21 is also provided at the edge of the second support plate 14 adjacent to the tread tooth 5. The second sliding groove 21 on the first support plate 13 corresponds to the second sliding groove 21 on the second support plate 14.
[0026] Combined Figure 3 with Figure 4 shown in the figure, the first traveling mechanism is connected to the second traveling mechanism through a plurality of first telescopic rods 4. The plurality of first telescopic rods 4 are arranged on the outer side walls of the first tread plates 101 and the second tread plates 102, and a pressing rod 17 is provided at the lower end of the first telescopic rod 4. A plurality of first moving grooves 19 are provided on the first tread plates 101 and the second tread plates 102 along the vertical direction and can be adapted to the pressing rod 17. A plurality of second moving grooves 15 are provided on the first support plate 13 and the second support plate 14 along the horizontal direction and are adapted to the pressing rod 17. A pressing rod 17 is connected between the end of the first telescopic rod 4 on the first tread plate 101 and the end of the first telescopic rod 4 at the corresponding position on the second tread plate 102. The pressing rod 17 penetrates through the first moving groove 19 and the second moving groove 15. A limiting rod 18 is fixedly connected between the first tread plate 101 and the second tread plate 102. Corresponding limiting grooves 16 are provided on the first support plate 13 and the second support plate 14 along the vertical direction and are adapted to the limiting rod 18. The limiting rod 18 penetrates through the limiting grooves 16, and the second traveling mechanism moves up and down relative to the first traveling mechanism through the cooperation of the limiting grooves 16 and the limiting rod 18.
[0027] As Figure 5 shown in the figure, the front and rear ends of the first tread plates 101 and the second tread plates 102 are both rotatably connected to the gears 2. Through holes 22 are provided at the front and rear ends of the first support plate 13 and the second support plate 14. The motor 6 is in transmission connection with the gears 2 by passing a transmission shaft 7 through the first tread plates 101, the second tread plates 102, the first support plate 13 and the second support plate 14. The through holes 22 are adapted to the transmission shaft 7, and the diameter of the through holes 22 is much larger than the diameter of the transmission shaft 7. Chains 3 are connected between the two gears 2 on the first tread plate 101 and between the two gears 2 on the second tread plate 102. The motor 6 drives the chains 3 to move through the transmission shaft 7 and the gears 2.
[0028] As Figure 8 shown, each tread tooth 5 is evenly surrounded between the edges of the first tread plate 101 and the second tread plate 102. The tread tooth 5 is approximately triangular, and a buffer pad 501 is fixed on one side, and the buffer pad 501 protrudes from the edges of the first tread plate 101 and the second tread plate 102. On the left and right sides of the tread tooth 5 adjacent to one end of the buffer pad 501, a first connecting shaft 502 is provided, and on the left and right sides of the tread tooth 5 far from the buffer pad 501, a second connecting shaft 504 is provided. The outer end of one side of the first connecting shaft 502 is rotatably connected to the chain 3. On both the left and right sides of the first connecting shaft 502, pulleys 503 adapted to the first chute 20 are provided, and the first connecting shaft 502 moves along the first chute 20 through the pulleys 503. The second connecting shaft 504 is adaptively arranged in the second chute 21 and moves along the second chute 21.
[0029] There are four lifting mechanisms in total. The lifting mechanism includes a second telescopic rod 8, a protective shell 9, a slider 11 and a roller 12. The second telescopic rod 8 and the protective shell 9 are fixedly connected to the vehicle frame. The second telescopic rod 8 is located at the top of the protective shell 9. The lower side of the protective shell 9 has an opening, and the upper side has a connection hole adapted to the second telescopic rod 8. On the side walls of a pair of opposite sides in the protective shell 9, third moving grooves 10 are correspondingly provided. The slider 11 is adaptively arranged in the protective shell 9. Both sides of the slider 11 have sliding rods adapted to the third moving grooves 10, and the slider 11 moves up and down along the third moving grooves 10 through the sliding rods. A roller 12 is provided at the bottom of the slider 11. The slider 11 moves up and down along the protective shell 9 driven by the second telescopic rod 8, so that the roller 12 realizes the position conversion of protruding or retracting relative to the protective shell 9.
[0030] The toothed load vehicle has two motion modes, namely the flat-ground walking mode and the stair-climbing walking mode, and the two modes can be switched under the cooperation of the first telescopic rod 4 and the second traveling mechanism. When in the flat-ground walking mode, the motor 6 drives the gear 2 to rotate through the transmission shaft 7, and the gear 2 drives a plurality of toothed teeth 5 to move along the first chute 20 and the second chute 21 simultaneously through the chain 3. Moreover, the side of the toothed tooth 5 provided with the buffer pad 501 protrudes from the edges of the first tread plate 101 and the second tread plate 102 to contact the relatively flat ground, and the buffer pad 501 is used for buffering and shock absorption. When in the stair-climbing walking mode, the motor 6 drives the gear 2 to rotate through the transmission shaft 7, and the gear 2 drives a plurality of toothed teeth 5 to move along the first chute 20 and the second chute 21 simultaneously through the transmission shaft 7. Subsequently, the first telescopic rod 4 drives the pressure rod 17 to move downward along the first moving groove 19, the pressure rod 17 presses down the second traveling mechanism through the second moving groove 15, and at the same time, the limiting groove 16 moves downward along the limiting rod 18. The limiting rod 18 and the limiting groove 16 cooperate to limit the second traveling mechanism. As the second traveling mechanism is pressed down, the position of the second chute 21 relative to the first tread plate 101 and the second tread plate 102 will be changed, thereby changing the angle of the toothed tooth 5, and further enabling the buffer pad 501 of the toothed tooth 5 to fully contact the top surface of the stairs, realizing the stair-climbing function. When encountering a complex road surface, the movable end of the second telescopic rod 8 expands and contracts, driving the slider 11 to move downward along the third moving groove 10 of the protective shell 9 through the slide rod, so that the roller 12 protrudes from the protective shell 9 and completely lifts the vehicle frame, and only the roller 12 contacts the ground. At this time, the staff pushes the vehicle frame and moves it using the roller 12.
