[0002] A grain warehouse inspection robot is a robot that walks inside a grain warehouse. Traditional grain warehouse inspection robots are equipped with special walking units to prevent the robot from getting stuck in grain when walking in the grain warehouse. At the same time, detection sensors are installed on the robot to detect environmental indicators such as temperature, humidity, and harmful gases inside the grain warehouse.

[0003] However, in a grain warehouse, since the grain on the surface is less affected by the accumulation effect, simple air detection on the surface is inaccurate, so regular sampling and inspection of the grain is required; however, in order to achieve the sampling function, the robot needs to be designed with a sampler. In order to obtain deeper grain samples, the sampler needs to be designed with an additional probe mechanism, which drives the sampling piece into the deep of the grain for sampling.

[0039] The embodiment of the present invention discloses a robot for grain depot inspection and a control system thereof. Figure 1-11 As shown, it includes a robot body 1, with multifunctional robotic arms 2 installed on both sides of the robot body 1. The multifunctional robotic arms 2 include cantilevers 21 and power arms 22 rotatably arranged on the cantilevers 21. The cantilevers 21 are rotatably arranged on the robot body 1 so that the two sets of power arms 22 and the robot body 1 form any angle. The outer surface of the power arm 22 is integrally formed with a continuous threaded blade 213, so that when the power arm 22 rotates parallel to the robot body 1, the threaded blade 213 pushes the robot body 1 to move;

[0040] A tunneling shell 23 is installed at the front end of the power arm 22. The diameter of the tunneling shell 23 gradually decreases at the end away from the power arm 22. A sampling unit 26 is movably connected to the tunneling shell 23. The sampling unit 26 includes a sampling seat 268 and a sample storage cylinder 269 installed in a circular array inside the sampling seat 268. A sampling tube 266 is provided in the middle of the multiple sample storage cylinders 269. The threaded blades 213 extend to the surface of the tunneling shell 23, so that when the power arm 22 rotates perpendicular to the robot body 1, it rotates into the grain pile through the threaded blades 213, and then samples are taken through the sampling tube 266 and stored in the sample storage cylinder 269.

[0041] The robot body 1 includes a main shell 11, a battery 12 is installed inside the end of the main shell 11, a transparent acrylic shell 14 is installed at the front end of the main shell 11, and the bottom of the transparent acrylic shell 14 is set as an upwardly inclined arc surface, so that the robot body 1 has an anti-sinking effect.

A variable frequency motor 25 is fixedly installed on the outer end of the fixed tube 24, and the other end of the drive shaft 211 is fixedly connected to the output end of the variable frequency motor 25. A wind breaking cover 27 is fixedly installed on the outside of the variable frequency motor 25. When the power arm 22 is driven forward, the wind breaking cover 27 uses its conical smooth surface to reduce the travel resistance, and provides additional anchoring when the power arm 22 supports the robot body 1 to go down a steep slope, thereby preventing the robot body 1 from slipping.

The excavation shell 23 is installed on the assembly portion 214 by screws, and a storage chamber for storing the sampling seat 268 is formed between the two.

The outer surface of the conical tunneling section 232 is integrally formed with dense tunneling threads 233. The dense tunneling threads 233 are connected to the threaded blades 213. When the dense tunneling threads 233 tunnel into the grain pile, they can be screwed into the grain pile more quickly due to their overall conical shape.

[0046] A positioning groove 2612 is provided on the outer wall of the sampling seat 268, and a positioning ridge 234 is integrally formed inside the assembly tube 231. The positioning ridge 234 is movably inserted into the positioning groove 2612. A battery seat 261 is fixedly provided on one section of the sampling seat 268.

The sampling tube 266 is connected to the end of the electric telescopic rod 262 by a bearing, and the output end of the rotating motor 265 is fixedly connected to the sampling tube 266.

[0047] A section of the sampling seat 268 away from the electric telescopic rod 262 is fixed with an annular cover 2611 for fixing the sample storage cylinder 269 by screws. A feed port 2610 facing the sample storage cylinder 269 is provided inside the sampling seat 268. A sampling groove 267 is provided on the outer wall of the sampling tube 266.

[0048] A plurality of detection sensors 16 are installed at the top end of the main shell 11. The plurality of detection sensors 16 are selected according to the different types of grain inside the granary to be detected, and are respectively used for detecting the humidity, temperature, oxygen concentration and other harmful gas concentrations in the air inside the granary.

[0049] Working principle: When the device is in use, it is placed on the grain pile in the grain warehouse, and then the device is connected to the external remote control through the wireless communication module inside it, and the real-time image is transmitted through the visual screen and the visual probe 111. By starting the frequency conversion motor 25, it drives the drive shaft 211 to rotate clockwise, and the drive shaft 211 drives the power arm 22 to rotate through the coupling 212. The threaded blades 213 on the outside of the power arm 22 rotate on the surface of the grain pile, thereby driving the entire robot body 1 to move on the grain pile through the spiral thrust. The curved surface at the bottom of the transparent acrylic shell 14 makes the robot body 1 have an anti-sinking effect, and in the process of moving, the cantilever 21 is driven to rotate by the servo torsion motor 19, thereby changing the vertical inclination angle of the power arm 22; the power arm 22 is driven to rotate by the steering motor 29, changing the horizontal angle of the power arm 22, so that the robot body 1 is turned, and has multiple motion modes to cope with different scenes;

[0050] When climbing a slope, for a higher slope, the servo torsion motor 19 drives the cantilever 21 to rotate, thereby adjusting the inclination angle of the power arm 22 and controlling the front end of the power arm 22 to tilt upward, so that the power arm 22 has an upward thrust when driven, thereby avoiding sinking when climbing;

[0051] When going down a small slope, when the slope is less than 30°, the front of the power arm 22 tilts downward, so that the front end of the robot body 1 fits into the slope of the grain pile, thereby preventing it from tipping over when going downhill;

[0052] When going down a steep slope, when the slope is greater than 30 degrees, the servo torsion motor 19 drives the cantilever 21 to rotate, causing the power arm 22 to flip to a state where the excavation shell 23 faces forward. At this time, the power arm 22 supports the robot body 1, so that the robot body 1 remains as horizontal as possible, and the power arm 22 is parallel to the slope. At this time, the frequency conversion motor 25 is reversed, and the power arm 22 supports the robot body 1 to slowly move downward. In the process of moving downward, the threaded blades 213 form a large friction resistance with the surface of the grain pile. At the same time, the windbreaker 27 acts in the opposite direction on the surface of the grain pile, playing an effective anchoring role, increasing resistance, and effectively preventing sliding;

[0053] When escaping from a difficult situation, when the robot body 1 is buried due to the collapse of the slope on the surface of the grain pile, the gyroscope 13 is used to determine whether the robot body 1 is currently facing upward or downward, and then the power arm 22 is determined to be facing upward or downward. If the power arm 22 is facing upward, the variable frequency motor 25 is controlled to rotate clockwise; if the power arm 22 is facing downward, the variable frequency motor 25 is controlled to rotate counterclockwise, so that the power arm 22 moves upward in the grain pile, thereby driving the robot body 1 to move upward and escape from the difficult situation.

[0054] This allows the entire robot body 1 to move forward and backward freely in the grain pile, and can calmly deal with various emergencies that may occur while walking in the grain pile;

[0055] During use, the device detects the temperature, humidity, oxygen concentration, carbon dioxide concentration, and other harmful gas concentrations inside the granary through multiple detection sensors 16 on the main housing 11. According to the characteristics of the products inside the granary, the corresponding sensor is selected to achieve effective detection of the internal air environment, helping warehouse managers to judge the current internal state of the granary;

[0056] During sampling, a set of servo torsion motors 19 drive a set of power arms 22 to flip forward, so that the excavation shell 23 at the front end of the power arm 22 has a downward trend. At this time, the other set of power arms 22 rotate clockwise to push the robot body 1 forward, and the flipped power arm 22 rotates counterclockwise. At the same time, the servo torsion motor 19 continues to slowly drive the power arm 22 to twist downward, and finally the power arm 22 is screwed downward into the grain pile. At this time, the whole Figure 3As shown, at this time, the electric telescopic rod 262 is started to push the sampling tube 266 downward, so that the sampling slot 267 is exposed in the grain pile. At this time, under the action of gravity and the internal pressure of the grain pile, the grain at the target position enters the sampling slot 267, and then the rotating motor 265 drives the sampling tube 266 to rotate, so that the sampling slot 267 is facing a group of feed ports 2610. At this time, the electric telescopic rod 262 contracts, driving the sampling tube 266 to move upward. At this time, under the action of the internal pressure of the grain pile, the grain remains in the sampling slot 267 and cannot escape, and finally the grain in the sampling slot 267 enters the sampling seat 268. At this time, the grain slides downward along the bottom end of the sampling slot 267 under the action of gravity, and enters the sample storage cylinder 269 through the feed port 2610. In this process In the embodiment, other feed ports 2610 are blocked by the outer wall of the sampling tube 266. When sampling, the outer wall of the output end of the electric telescopic rod 262 blocks all feed ports 2610, so that one sample storage cylinder 269 is filled each time during the sampling process, and then the rotary motor 265 is used to rotate and replace the next group of sample storage cylinders 269 for filling, so as to realize multi-point sampling and storage, and the power arm 22 is used as the storage component of the sampling unit 26 to reduce the size of the entire robot body 1, and the power arm 22 is used as the power part to probe into the grain pile during sampling, so as to realize deep sampling, and at the same time, there is no need to further design the excavation component of the sampler, the cost is lower, and there is more space on the robot body 1 to assemble the battery, so that the overall effective inspection mileage is increased.

[0057] After use, the excavation shell 23 is removed, the sampling unit 26 is pulled out along the positioning protrusion 234, and the annular cover 2611 is removed, and the multiple sample storage cylinders 269 can be pulled out one by one for sample transfer.
