[0027] Example 1

[0028] Reference Figures 1-3 This is the first embodiment of the present invention, which provides a power equipment inspection device, which includes a main body 100 and a replacement component 200.

[0029] Specifically, the main body 100 includes a traveling wheel 101, a support rod 102, and a detection head 103. The traveling wheel 101 is located at the lower end of the main body 100, the support rod 102 is located at the upper end of the main body 100, and the detection head 103 is located on the support rod 102. The main body 100 also includes a motor for driving the traveling mechanism and a controller electrically connected to the detection head. This is prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0030] Replacement component 200 includes connector 201 and terminal 202. Connector 201 is located at the lower end of detection head 103, and terminal 202 is located at the upper end of support rod 102. Connector 201 and terminal 202 are detachably connected.

[0031] When using the device, if the detection head 103 needs to be maintained or replaced, simply operate 202 to remove the detection head 103. When connecting, simply align the connector 201 with the terminal 202 and insert it to complete the connection. During connection, the seam between the connector 201 and the terminal 202 is covered by the terminal 202 to prevent external liquids from entering and damaging the circuit.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] Reference Figures 2-6 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the previous embodiment.

[0034] Specifically, the connector 201 includes an annular platform 201a, a lug 201b, and a spiral groove 201c. The annular platform 201a is disposed on the side wall of the connector 201, the lug 201b is disposed at the lower end of the annular platform 201a, and the spiral groove 201c is disposed on the inner wall of the lug 201b.

[0035] The lower end of the lug 201b extends beyond the lower end face of the connector 201.

[0036] Specifically, the connector 202 includes a housing 203, a locking cylinder 204, a rotating cylinder 205, and a disengaging cylinder 206. The lower end of the housing 203 is connected to the support rod 102. The locking cylinder 204 is disposed inside the housing 203, the rotating cylinder 205 is disposed inside the locking cylinder 204, and the disengaging cylinder 206 is disposed outside the housing 203.

[0037] The locking cylinder 204 can both rotate and move axially. The locking cylinder 204 can lock the connection between the connector 201 and the end 202. The rotating cylinder 205 can be connected to the connector 201. The disengaging cylinder 206 can drive the rotation and movement of the locking cylinder 204 to disengage the rotating cylinder 205. It is worth noting that there is a baffle at the upper end of the housing 203. In the initial state, the upper end of the locking cylinder 204 is in contact with the baffle. The inner diameter of the locking cylinder 204 is smaller than the inner diameter of the baffle. Therefore, the end face of the locking cylinder 204 will extend out of the baffle. The height of the locking cylinder 204 is greater than the height of the rotating cylinder 205. When connected, the locking cylinder 204 will cover the joint between the connector 201 and the rotating cylinder 205 to improve the sealing performance.

[0038] Specifically, the housing 203 includes an annular groove 203a, a straight groove 203b, and a first sliding groove 203c. The annular groove 203a is disposed at the lower end of the housing 203, and the straight groove 203b and the first sliding groove 203c are disposed on the side wall of the housing 203.

[0039] Specifically, the first groove 203c includes a short groove 203d, a long groove 203e, a first inclined groove 203f, a second inclined groove 203g, a limiting groove 203h, and a limiting block 203i. The first inclined groove 203f connects the middle part of the long groove 203e to the upper end of the short groove 203d. The second inclined groove 203g connects the lower end of the long groove 203e to the lower end of the short groove 203d. The limiting groove 203h is located at the lower end of the long groove 203e. The limiting block 203i is provided with a first spring 203j and an inclined surface 203k. The limiting block 203i slides with the limiting groove 203h. The first spring 203j is located between the end faces of the limiting block 203i and the limiting groove 203h. The inclined surface 203k is located at the upper end of the limiting block 203i.

[0040] It is worth noting that the upper ends of the short groove 203d and the long groove 203e are flush, the pitch of the first inclined groove 203f is the same as that of the spiral groove 201c, and the limiting block 203i is used to limit the movement sequence of the round rod 204c in the first sliding groove 203c, and its inclined surface 203k faces away from the second inclined groove 203g.

[0041] Specifically, the rotating drum 205 is provided with a turntable 205a, a swivel block 205b, and a second sliding groove 205c. The turntable 205a is located at the lower end of the rotating drum 205 and slides in cooperation with the annular groove 203a. The swivel block 205b is located on the side wall of the rotating drum 205 and slides in cooperation with the spiral groove 201c.

[0042] Specifically, the second slide 205c includes a straight section 205d and an inclined section 205e, with the upper end of the inclined section 205e connected to the lower end of the straight section 205d;

[0043] In the initial state, the projections of the straight section 205d and the short groove 203d completely coincide, and the projections of the inclined section 205e and the second inclined groove 203g completely coincide.

[0044] Specifically, the locking cylinder 204 is provided with a locking groove 204a, a second spring 204b, a round rod 204c, and a disengagement hole 204d. The locking groove 204a is provided on the inner wall of the locking cylinder 204, the second spring 204b is provided between the locking cylinder 204 and the lower end of the housing 203, and the round rod 204c passes through the side wall of the locking cylinder 204. One end of the rod is slidably engaged with the first sliding groove 203c, and the inner end is slidably engaged with the second sliding groove 205c.

[0045] It is worth noting that the size of the locking groove 204a matches the lug 201b. In the initial state, the rotating block 205b is located in the locking groove 204a. In the initial state, one end of the round rod 204c is located at the intersection of the short groove 203d and the first inclined groove 203h, and the other end is located at the upper end of the straight section 205d. During connection, the lug 201b is aligned with the locking groove 204a, that is, the rotating block 205b is aligned with the entrance at the lower end of the spiral groove 201c. The connector 201 is pressed down. With the cooperation of the rotating block 205b and the spiral groove 201c, the rotating cylinder 205 rotates. Through the cooperation of the round rod 204c and the straight section 205d, the locking cylinder 204 also rotates. Thus, the end of the round rod 204c located in the first sliding groove 203c moves along the first inclined groove 203f. Since the pitch of the first inclined groove 203f and the spiral groove 201c is the same, the locking cylinder 204 rotates. The falling height of 4 is consistent with the falling height of connector 201, and the rotation angle of locking cylinder 204 is consistent with the rotation angle of rotating cylinder 205. When the end of connector 201 is in contact with the end of rotating cylinder 205, the rotating block 205b is inserted into the bottom of spiral groove 204a. One end of round rod 204c is located in the middle of straight section 205d (before reaching the end point), and the other end is located at the intersection of first inclined groove 203f and long groove 203e. At this time, the projections of long groove 203e and straight section 205d are on the same straight line. Therefore, under the action of second spring 204b, locking cylinder 206 moves upward and covers the lug 201b and the joint between connector 201 and rotating cylinder 205. At this time, one end of round rod 204c is located at the upper end of straight section 205d, and the other end is located at the upper end of long groove 203e. At this time, locking cylinder 206 cannot rotate, and connector 201 and end 202 are connected and locked.

[0046] Specifically, the release cylinder 206 is provided with an opening 206a, a groove 206b, a third spring 206c, and a release rod 206d. The opening 206a penetrates the side wall of the release cylinder 206, the groove 206b is provided inside the opening 206a, the third spring 206c is provided between the release cylinder 206 and the end face of the housing 203, and the release rod 206d is provided inside the opening 206a.

[0047] In the initial state, the third spring 206c is at its original length, one end of the release rod 206d extends out of the opening 206a on the outer wall of the release cylinder 206, and the other end extends out of the opening 206a on the inner wall of the release cylinder 206, and slides with the straight groove 203b to ensure that the release cylinder 206 can only move axially.

[0048] Specifically, the release rod 206d is provided with a ring plate 206e and a fourth spring 206f. The ring plate 206e is slidably engaged with the column groove 206b, and the fourth spring 206f is disposed between the end faces of the ring plate 206e and the column groove 206b.

[0049] In the initial state, the fourth spring 206f is at its original length. After the connector 201 and the end 202 are connected and locked, the disengagement hole 204d coincides with the opening 206a. When disengagement is required, first clamp the connector 201 to prevent axial rotation, then press the disengagement rod 206d to extend it into the disengagement hole 204d, and move the disengagement cylinder 206 downward. This will drive the locking cylinder 206 downward, so that one end of the round rod 204c moves along the long groove 203e, and the other end moves along the straight section 205. As the cylinder moves downwards, when the end reaches the intersection of the straight section 205d and the inclined section 205e, the locking groove 204a disengages from the lug 201b. Continuing downwards, it disengages from the disengaging cylinder 206. At this point, the round rod 204c enters the inclined section 205e, causing the rotating cylinder 205 to rotate. Since the joint 201 does not rotate axially, the rotating block 205b gradually separates from the spiral groove 201c. When one end of the round rod 204c moves to the bottom of the long groove 203e, the other end moves to the bottom of the inclined groove 205e, and the rotation... When cylinder 205 resets, connector 201 and end 202 are completely disengaged. At this time, release cylinder 206. Under the action of the third spring 206c, release cylinder 206 resets. Under the action of the second spring 206c, locking cylinder 206 resets. The reset process is as follows: one end of round rod 204c in the first slide groove 203c is restricted by the limiting block 203h and can only move along the second inclined groove 203g. The other end of round rod 204c moves along the inclined section 205e. During this process, locking cylinder 205... 06 Rotate upward (since the second inclined groove 203g and the inclined section 205e have the same shape, the rotating drum 205 does not rotate). When the round rod 204c moves to the intersection of the straight section 205d and the inclined section 205e, that is, the intersection of the second inclined groove 203g and the short groove 203d, the locking groove 204a moves to the lower end of the rotating block 205b. At this time, under the action of the second spring 206c, the round rod 204c continues to move upward along the direction of the straight section 205d and the short groove 203d until it finally resets.

[0050] When in use, simply align the lug 201b of the plug 201 with the locking hole 204a and insert it to complete the connection. When you need to disconnect, simply clamp the connector 201, press the disconnect rod 206d and move the disconnect cylinder 206 downwards to complete the disconnection.

[0051] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
