TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of fire-fighting equipment, in particular to a full-terrain multi-functional fire-fighting operation robot. BACKGROUND

[0002] In modern fire-fighting work, the complexity and danger of fire accidents are increasing. Traditionally, fire-fighting personnel mainly rely on manual fire-fighting by entering the core area of the fire scene. However, in the face of high-risk complex scenes such as chemical fire, high-rise building fire or large warehouse fire, the fire scene often has risks such as high temperature, toxic and harmful gases, explosion risk and building structure collapse, which seriously threaten the safety of fire-fighting personnel. At the same time, due to the limitation of human endurance and mobility, fire-fighting personnel are difficult to quickly reach the core area of the fire scene, which may delay the expansion of the fire.

[0003] In order to reduce personnel risk and improve rescue ability, some fire-fighting robot devices have appeared in the market. These devices usually have basic walking function and are equipped with fire water cannons or water guns, which can realize remote water spraying and make the operator work at a safe distance. However, these existing fire-fighting robots still have significant shortcomings.

[0004] On the one hand, the mobile chassis is designed mainly for flat and hard road surface, and has poor passing ability and obstacle crossing ability when facing complex unstructured terrains such as ruins, stairs, mud or obstacles commonly seen in fire scenes, and is easy to be trapped and difficult to penetrate into the key position of the fire scene. On the other hand, its function is relatively single, mostly focusing only on water spraying, lacking comprehensive disposal ability for multiple disasters, such as lacking multiple functions of breaking, smoke exhaust, material transportation or environment detection, and being difficult to adapt to complex and variable actual combat needs. Therefore, neither the traditional manual method nor the primary fire-fighting robot can well solve the problem of safe, efficient and multi-functional collaborative operation in complex and dangerous environment.

The superconducting electromagnetic conversion valve group 6321 realizes rapid response of water flow on-off and flow regulation by virtue of the low resistance characteristic of superconducting materials, cooperates with the pressure sensor 6323 to monitor the water pressure between the main water channel 631 and the valve group in real time, controls the water pressure fluctuation, ensures the stability of the pressure and flow of the sprayed water flow, avoids the scattering of the water flow or the long-short range of the range caused by the sudden change of the pressure, and improves the fire extinguishing precision. The recoil suppression muzzle brake 6322 is installed in the same section as the valve group, absorbs the recoil force generated when the water cannon is sprayed through the internal multi-chamber diversion structure to effectively suppress the displacement or shaking of the robot caused by the recoil, and ensures the continuous and accurate attack on the fire source.

[0043] The superconducting electromagnetic conversion valve group 6321 includes a three-position four-way valve and a driving assembly electrically connected with the three-position four-way valve. The three-position four-way valve has three working positions and four ports, which can realize multi-dimensional accurate control of water flow direction, flow rate and pressure, so that the robot can quickly adapt to fire mutation scenes and avoid the decrease of fire extinguishing efficiency caused by mode switching delay; the driving assembly is electrically connected with the three-position four-way valve, and cooperates with the water pressure data fed back by the pressure sensor 6323 in real time, so that when the sensor detects pipeline pressure fluctuation, the driving assembly immediately adjusts the opening of the three-position four-way valve to dynamically balance the flow rate and pressure, and ensures the stability of the jet flow. In addition, the integrated structure of the three-position four-way valve reduces the installation space compared with the dispersed valve group, and is suitable for the compact rack 1 layout of the robot.

[0044] The water cannon power assembly 632 further includes a water bomb launching chamber 6324, a ceramic columnar water flow nozzle 6325 and a magnetic suspension water bomb storage bin 6326 arranged between the pressure sensor 6323 and the main water channel 631; the water bomb launching chamber 6324 and the ceramic columnar water flow nozzle 6325 are both installed on the magnetic suspension water bomb storage bin. The magnetic suspension water bomb storage bin 6326 adopts non-contact suspension technology to eliminate the influence of robot running vibration or water cannon recoil on the water bomb, and avoids damage or displacement of the water bomb due to collision. The water bomb launching chamber 6324 connects the storage bin and the main water channel 631, converts the main water channel pressure fed back by the pressure sensor 6323 in real time into accurate launching power, dynamically adjusts the launching speed and trajectory of the water bomb according to the fire situation, realizes directional removal of the fire point behind the long-distance fire source or the barrier, and the ceramic columnar water flow nozzle 6325 can maintain smooth jetting under high-pressure water flow mode and can withstand impact load during water bomb launching due to the high hardness and wear resistance of ceramic materials, thereby avoiding nozzle blockage, deformation or corrosion.

[0045] The ceramic columnar water flow nozzle 6325 can be replaced with various shapes and sizes of nozzles. Different shapes and sizes of nozzles can be directly and quickly replaced, so that the robot can flexibly cope with diversified fire situations. The columnar nozzle can be used to form a high-pressure jet for close-range concentrated fire extinguishing, the fan-shaped nozzle can be switched to expand the water curtain range for long-distance large-area coverage, the atomizing nozzle can be used to reduce air temperature and suppress rekindling in high-temperature smoke diffusion scenes, and the narrow slit focusing nozzle can be used to accurately penetrate narrow gaps or hidden fire sources. The nozzle made of ceramic material has high hardness and high temperature resistance, and is more resistant to erosion and corrosion than traditional metal nozzles. In combination with the replaceable design, the function can be restored by replacing the damaged nozzle.

[0046] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the present application is that the anti-skid pattern 212 structure of the track 211 chassis 21 significantly increases the contact friction with the ground, and cooperates with the driving characteristics of the walking wheel, so that the robot can stably cross the high-risk terrain. The shock absorbing spring 31 arranged on the rack 1 can effectively absorb the impact vibration generated in the process of advancing due to the ups and downs of the terrain or the collision of obstacles, avoid the damage of internal precision sensors, control systems and power elements due to high-frequency vibration, prolong the service life of the equipment and ensure the stability of the operation process; The grabbing structure 411 of the first mechanical arm 41 and the cutting structure 421 of the second mechanical arm 42 form an obstacle removal operation cooperation system, the grabbing structure 411 can quickly remove small obstacles or transfer dangerous goods, and the cutting structure 421 can accurately cut large obstacles, to open a direct channel to the fire source for the robot, and improve the rescue efficiency; The multiple cameras 52 arranged in the advancing direction cooperate with the top antenna 51, the former can collect the images of the terrain and the fire field situation in front in real time, and the latter can stably return the picture and equipment state data to the remote control console through anti-interference communication technology, so that the operator can fully master the on-site information and accurately adjust the instruction; The water cannon device 63 driven by the hydraulic arm 62 can adjust the spray angle through multi-degree-of-freedom swing according to the position of the fire source and the size of the fire, combined with the strong impact force and coverage range of high-pressure water flow, which can not only extinguish the fierce fire at close range, but also suppress the spread of fire at a distance; The power supply system provides continuous energy support for each module, cooperates with the internal voltage stabilization and overload protection design, and ensures that the power of the robot does not be interrupted in long-time high-intensity operation.
