Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of equipment management in oil and gas stations, and particularly relates to a double-pulse modulation type static electricity elimination device and method for movable equipment. Background Art

[0002] With the innovation and development of modern science and technology, the application of automation technology in production has become increasingly common, which can not only improve production efficiency but also ensure production quality. The application value of inspection robots in production supervision has gradually emerged and become an effective tool for assisting industrial production. It is imperative for relevant enterprises to actively seek measures to ensure the safe operation of inspection robots.

[0003] Static electricity of inspection robots is a common factor causing problems in operation. The types of faults caused by static electricity can be divided into two types. The first is the fault that causes damage to semiconductor devices such as storage elements and logic elements; the second is the fault that causes problems in the operation of inspection robot equipment. Currently, the design and research work on static electricity elimination devices for inspection robots focuses on the first type of fault. Generally, the reason for the first type of static electricity fault is closely related to the processing conditions of semiconductor devices during the assembly stage of inspection robots. In recent years, the scale and quantity of using high-integration semiconductors have been increasing day by day. Therefore, when an inspection robot is in operation, even a very small static electricity problem will damage the components.

[0004] When designing a static electricity elimination method for inspection robots, the focus is on the second type of static electricity fault. This type of fault can be simply understood as a kind of "noise problem". The cause of the static electricity fault is static electricity discharge, which is generally called a noise fault; the second type of fault is a familiar type. For example, when taking off chemical fiber clothes, there will be a "crackling" static electricity discharge sound on the body. In fact, this type of static electricity discharge fault will also be accompanied by electromagnetic wave noise. If not dealt with, it will have an adverse impact on the signal reception during the production stage. Because the consequences caused by electromagnetic wave noise are invisible and inaudible, it is fatal to the equipment. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the invention is to provide a double-pulse modulation type static electricity elimination device and method for movable equipment, so as to solve the problem that when an inspection robot or movable equipment is charged with static electricity, it will affect the safe operation and stable operation of various components.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] The present invention provides a dual-pulse modulated electrostatic elimination device for a movable device, which includes an electrostatic sensing probe. The electrostatic sensing probe is arranged on a housing and is connected to an electrostatic controller. The electrostatic controller is connected to a positive ion discharge needle, a negative ion discharge needle, and a fan. A positive charge receiving plate is symmetrically arranged at intervals above the positive ion discharge needle, and a negative charge receiving plate is symmetrically arranged at intervals above the negative ion discharge needle.

[0008] A further improvement of the present invention is that the fan is located between the positive ion discharge needle and the negative ion discharge needle.

[0009] A further improvement of the present invention is that the fan can shake its head left and right under the action of the electrostatic controller.

[0010] A further improvement of the present invention is that the positive charge receiving plate is connected to a negative ion electrostatic release electrode, and the negative charge receiving plate is connected to a positive ion electrostatic release electrode.

[0011] A further improvement of the present invention is that the negative ion electrostatic release electrode and the positive ion electrostatic release electrode are arranged on the housing.

[0012] A further improvement of the present invention is that an air inlet is arranged at one end of the housing, and an air outlet is arranged at the other end.

[0013] A further improvement of the present invention is that fixing chucks are arranged at both ends of the housing.

[0014] A further improvement of the present invention is that adsorption magnets are respectively arranged inside the fixing chucks.

[0015] The present invention provides a dual-pulse modulated electrostatic elimination method for a movable device. After the electrostatic sensing probe senses charge information, it feeds back the charge information to the electrostatic controller. The electrostatic controller receives the electrostatic charge information and controls the positive ion discharge needle or the negative ion discharge needle, and at the same time controls the operation of the fan, blows the ions generated by the positive ion discharge needle onto the positive charge receiving plate, and blows the ions generated by the negative ion discharge needle onto the negative charge receiving plate. When the charge receiving plate receives the charge, it transmits the charge to the inspection robot to eliminate the charge.

[0016] A further improvement of the present invention is that when the electrostatic sensing probe senses negative charge, the electrostatic controller turns on the positive ion discharge needle and the fan, and blows the generated positive ions onto the positive charge receiving plate; when the electrostatic sensing probe senses positive charge, the electrostatic controller turns on the negative ion discharge needle and the fan, and blows the generated negative ions onto the negative charge receiving plate; when the electrostatic sensing probe does not sense electrostatic charge, the electrostatic controller turns off the positive ion discharge needle, the negative ion discharge needle, and the fan.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] The device of the present invention is provided with an electrostatic sensing probe, which is connected to an electrostatic controller inside the housing. The electrostatic controller is connected to a positive ion discharge needle, a negative ion discharge needle, and a fan. A positive charge receiving plate is symmetrically arranged at intervals above the positive ion discharge needle, and a negative charge receiving plate is symmetrically arranged at intervals above the negative ion discharge needle. The electrostatic sensing probe is used to sense the electrostatic charge on the inspection robot. When the electrostatic charge is sensed, the electrostatic controller can control the positive ion discharge needle, the negative ion discharge needle, and the fan to operate, generate opposite electrostatic charges, and blow the charges to the corresponding charge receiving plates through the fan to neutralize the static electricity and eliminate the electrostatic charge.

[0019] Further, under the action of the electrostatic controller, the fan can shake its head left and right to ensure that when the positive ion discharge needle or the negative ion discharge needle operates alone, the fan can blow the ions generated thereon to the corresponding charge receiving plate.

[0020] Further, an air inlet is provided at one end of the housing, and an air outlet is provided at the other end, enabling the fan to inhale air from the air inlet and exhaust air from the air outlet during operation to ensure the air flow inside the housing.

[0021] Further, fixing chucks are provided at both ends of the housing, which can be clamped and fixed to the inspection robot.

[0022] Further, adsorption magnets are respectively arranged on the inner sides of the fixing chucks, which can make the fixation of the inspection robot and the electrostatic elimination device more firm.

[0023] The method of the present invention senses the charge information through an electrostatic sensing probe, and then feeds back the charge information to the electrostatic controller. The electrostatic controller controls the positive ion discharge needle, the negative ion discharge needle, and the fan. When the electrostatic sensing probe senses positive charges, the electrostatic controller controls the negative ion discharge needle and the fan to operate. When the electrostatic sensing probe senses negative charges, the electrostatic controller controls the positive ion discharge needle and the fan to operate. When the electrostatic sensing probe does not sense static charges, the electrostatic controller turns off the positive ion discharge needle, the negative ion discharge needle, and the fan, which can reduce unnecessary energy waste and extend the service life of the electrostatic elimination device at the same time.

[0064] Working principle:

[0065] The present invention uses the principle of dual-pulse modulation to eliminate static electricity. The technical method consists of an electrostatic sensing unit and an electrostatic elimination unit. The electrostatic sensing unit is closely attached to the outer wall of the robot. When the electrostatic sensing probe 10 senses the static electricity carried by the robot, it transmits the static electricity signal to the electrostatic elimination unit. The electrostatic elimination unit mainly includes an electrostatic controller 2 and an ion generator. The ion generator includes a positive ion discharge needle 4 and a negative ion discharge needle 5. The signal of the electrostatic sensing unit is transmitted to the electrostatic controller 2, and this signal includes the positive or negative and magnitude of the static electricity charge. The electrostatic controller 2 controls the operation of the ion generator according to the signal, transmits the ions generated by the ion generator to the charge receiving plate, and then conducts them to the inspection robot and movable equipment through internal wires to complete static electricity elimination. When the electrostatic sensing probe 10 senses negative charges, the electrostatic controller 2 turns on the positive ion discharge needle 4 and the fan 3 to blow the generated positive ions to the positive charge receiving plate 6-1. When the electrostatic sensing probe 10 senses positive charges, the electrostatic controller 2 turns on the negative ion discharge needle 5 and the fan 3 to blow the generated negative ions to the negative charge receiving plate 6-2. When the electrostatic sensing probe 10 does not sense static electricity charges, the electrostatic controller 2 turns off the ion generator and the fan 3 to avoid unnecessary energy waste and extend the service life. The present invention can eliminate both positive and negative static electricity phenomena. Especially when the inspection robot and movable equipment carry positive static electricity, it will have a deteriorating impact on the operation safety and stability of various components, making it difficult to ensure continuous operation. Designing and developing an electrostatic elimination device for inspection robots can improve the inspection speed and efficiency of inspection robots, reduce production hazards and difficulties, ensure that the start-up rate reaches the established standard, enhance the effective production time, improve the inspection ability of inspection robots, reduce equipment loss, and reduce energy consumption.
