Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of building facilities technology, specifically to an intelligent inspection robot for building facilities. Background Technology

[0002] Intelligent inspection robots for building facilities are robots capable of autonomously inspecting and monitoring building facilities. They integrate various sensors, image recognition, and machine learning technologies to detect various problems and anomalies in building facilities, including structural damage, leaks, and electrical malfunctions. Intelligent inspection robots typically possess the following functions: Autonomous navigation: The robot can perceive its surrounding environment through sensors such as LiDAR and cameras, and can plan and execute paths to complete inspection tasks. Image recognition: The robot can identify various problems in building facilities, such as cracks and leaks, and can generate corresponding reports. Sensor monitoring: The robot is equipped with various sensors, such as temperature and humidity sensors, to monitor the environmental parameters of building facilities in real time and can automatically trigger alarms. Data analysis and prediction: The robot can analyze and model the data collected during the inspection process to provide suggestions for facility maintenance and upkeep, and can predict potential faults and problems. Remote control and management: The robot can be remotely controlled and managed through a cloud platform, allowing users to view inspection results and monitoring data at any time, and remotely operate the robot to perform specific tasks. By using intelligent building inspection robots, inspection efficiency can be improved, labor costs can be reduced, and building facility problems can be detected and resolved in a timely manner, ensuring the safety and reliability of buildings.

[0003] The working principle of intelligent inspection robots for building facilities mainly includes the following aspects: Sensors: The intelligent inspection robot is equipped with various sensors, such as cameras, ultrasonic sensors, and infrared sensors. These sensors can perceive changes in the surrounding environment and the position of objects, thereby helping the robot to navigate and identify targets. Map Generation: The robot uses sensors such as LiDAR to scan the surrounding environment and then uses algorithms to generate a map. This map is used for the robot's localization and navigation, enabling it to move autonomously within the building facility. Target Recognition: The robot uses sensors such as cameras to identify targets in the building facility, such as monitoring equipment, pipes, and wires. Through deep learning algorithms, the robot can determine whether the target's status is normal, such as whether there are problems like damage or leaks. Autonomous Navigation: Based on the generated map and target recognition results, the robot determines the optimal travel path through path planning algorithms. The robot uses wheeled or tracked drives to move and uses an inertial navigation system and sensors to update its position in real time for precise navigation. Task Execution: According to the requirements of the inspection task, the robot can perform different operations, such as taking pictures, recording data, and reporting anomalies. The robot can automatically complete the corresponding operations according to preset rules and conditions and transmit data to the control center or personnel via a wireless network. Based on the above working principles, the intelligent inspection robot for building facilities can realize functions such as intelligent inspection, target recognition, and anomaly reporting, thereby improving inspection efficiency, reducing labor costs, and promptly identifying and resolving problems in building facilities.

[0004] However, existing intelligent inspection robots for building facilities generally can only monitor objects within a certain range when inspecting and monitoring facilities on construction sites. This results in some building facilities being missed, leading to a failure to predict and warn of problems in a timely manner. Furthermore, some intelligent inspection robots cannot adjust their height, making it impossible to observe certain tall buildings. Therefore, we propose an intelligent inspection robot for building facilities. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an intelligent inspection robot for building facilities to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an intelligent inspection robot for building facilities, comprising a mobile body, the top of which is fixedly connected to a support column, the top of which is fixedly connected to the bottom of a tripod, the top of which is fixedly connected to the bottom of a disc, a monitoring camera rotatably mounted on the top of the disc, and sensors arranged around the monitoring camera. The support column has a telescopic structure and a rotating structure inside. The telescopic structure allows the support column to be raised, enabling monitoring of high-altitude building facilities; the rotating structure allows the disc to rotate, allowing the monitoring camera to monitor building facilities more comprehensively. The disc also has a multi-angle structure inside, allowing the sensors to rotate around... The monitoring camera moves in a circular motion to eliminate blind spots. The telescopic structure includes a rack, a half-gear, a T-shaped rod, a cylinder, a vertical rod, and a spring. The inner wall of the support column is slidably connected to the surface of the rack, and the surface of the rack meshes with the half-gear. When the intelligent building facility inspection robot is working, the T-shaped rod is rotated, causing the cylinder to rise. Simultaneously, the vertical rod on the cylinder drives the disc to rise, increasing the overall height of the intelligent building facility inspection robot and enabling it to monitor high-altitude building facilities. The surface of the half-gear is fixedly connected to the surface of the T-shaped rod, the top of the rack is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cylinder, the top of the cylinder is fixedly connected to the bottom of the vertical rod, and a spring is fitted onto the surface of the vertical rod.

[0007] Preferably, the rotating structure includes a threaded groove. The surface of the cylinder is provided with a threaded groove, and the surface of the threaded groove is slidably connected to the surface of the pin. The pin passes through the cylinder. When the intelligent inspection robot for building facilities is working, the cylinder will rotate due to the cooperation between the threaded groove on the surface of the cylinder and the pin. This will cause the disc to rotate, and at the same time, the monitoring camera on the disc can monitor the surrounding building facilities from all directions.

[0008] Preferably, the multi-angle structure includes: a U-shaped block, the surface of the disc being fixedly connected to the bottom of the U-shaped block, the inner wall of the U-shaped block being slidably connected to the bottom of the T-shaped block, the top of the T-shaped block being fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal plate, the top of the horizontal plate being hinged to the round rod, the top of the round rod being fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider, the surface of the slider being slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixed block, the fixed block being penetrated by a vertical rod, the surface of the slider being fixedly connected to the bottom of the L-shaped rod, and the surface of the L-shaped rod being fixedly connected to the surface of the sensor. When the disc rotates, the sensors around the monitoring camera also move in a circular motion around the monitoring camera, thus preventing blind spots in the monitoring camera. Furthermore, the multi-angle structure ensures that the intelligent inspection robot for building facilities will not experience incomplete monitoring due to the inability to adjust the angle of the surrounding area.

[0009] Preferably, the support column has a cavity inside, which allows structures such as half gears, cylinders, and racks to move.

[0010] Preferably, the surface of the U-shaped block is provided with a groove for the T-shaped block to move. This groove allows the T-shaped block to move while simultaneously driving the fixed block to rotate on the vertical rod as the disc rotates.

[0011] Preferably, the bottom of the fixed block is provided with a groove for the slider to move. The groove allows the L-shaped rod connected to the slider to rotate when the slider moves.

[0012] Preferably, the disk has a cavity inside, which allows the fixed block, U-shaped block and slider to move normally without being affected.

[0013] Preferably, the top of the support column has a hole, which allows the spring and vertical rod at the top of the column to pass through when the column moves.

[0014] Preferably, the tripod has a hole in the middle for the spring to move, which allows the spring and the vertical rod at the top of the cylinder to pass through when the cylinder moves.

[0015] Preferably, the monitoring camera has a groove around its perimeter, which prevents the sensor from shifting when it makes circular motion.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides an intelligent inspection robot for building facilities, which has the following beneficial effects: 1. This intelligent building facility inspection robot, through the installation of a telescopic structure, allows the T-shaped rod to start working after the robot patrols to a designated location. Simultaneously, the half-gear on the T-shaped rod drives the rack to move upward inside the support column. At this time, the cylinder at the top of the rack drives the vertical rod to move upward, thus raising the height of the intelligent building facility inspection robot, enabling it to monitor building facilities at higher locations.

[0017] 2. This intelligent building facility inspection robot, through the setting of a rotating structure, after the intelligent building facility inspection robot patrols to the designated location, the rack moves upward through the half gear. At this time, the pin on the surface of the support column will fit into the threaded groove on the surface of the cylinder. As the cylinder moves upward, due to the threaded groove on the surface of the cylinder, the cylinder will rotate. When the cylinder rotates, the vertical rod at the top of the cylinder will also rotate, thereby allowing the monitoring camera to rotate, so as to monitor the surrounding building facilities.

[0018] 3. This intelligent building inspection robot, through its multi-angle structure, allows the disc at the top of the vertical pole to rotate as the vertical pole rotates. Simultaneously, the T-shaped block inside the U-shaped block on the disc's surface slides within the groove of the U-shaped block. This, in turn, causes the round rod on the horizontal plate at the top of the T-shaped block to move the slider within the groove of the fixed block. At this point, the fixed block rotates inside the monitoring camera, and the sensor on the fixed block performs a circular motion around the monitoring camera. This allows for multi-angle and all-around monitoring. Attached Figure Description

[0021] like Figure 1-6 As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: an intelligent inspection robot for building facilities, comprising a mobile body 1, the top of the mobile body 1 being fixedly connected to a support column 2, the top of the support column 2 being fixedly connected to the bottom of a tripod 3, the top of the tripod 3 being fixedly connected to the bottom of a disc 4, a monitoring camera 5 being rotatably mounted on the top of the disc 4, and sensors 6 being arranged around the monitoring camera 5. The support column 2 has a telescopic structure 7 and a rotating structure 8 inside. The telescopic structure 7 allows the support column 2 to be raised, thus enabling monitoring of building facilities at higher locations; the rotating structure 8 allows the disc 4 to rotate, allowing the monitoring camera 5 to monitor building facilities more comprehensively. The disc 4 has a multi-angle structure 9 inside, which allows the sensors 6 to move in a circular motion around the monitoring camera 5. The telescopic structure 7 includes: a rack 71, a half-gear 72, a T-shaped rod 73, a cylinder 74, a vertical rod 75, and a spring 76. The inner wall of the support column 2 is slidably connected to the surface of the rack 71, and the surface of the rack 71 meshes with the half gear 72. When the intelligent inspection robot of building facilities is working, the T-shaped rod 73 rotates, which causes the half gear 72 on the T-shaped rod 73 to move the rack 71 upward on the inner wall of the support column 2. At the same time, the cylinder 74 at the top of the rack 71 also moves upward. Meanwhile, the vertical rod 75 on the cylinder 74 moves upward under the action of the spring 76, which raises the entire support column 2, thereby monitoring the building facilities at high altitudes. The surface of the half gear 72 is fixedly connected to the surface of the T-shaped rod 73, and the top of the rack 71 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cylinder 74; The top of the cylinder 74 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the vertical rod 75, and a spring 76 is fitted on the surface of the vertical rod 75.

[0022] The rotating structure 8 includes a threaded groove 81. The surface of the cylinder 74 is provided with the threaded groove 81, which is slidably connected to the surface of the pin 82. The pin 82 passes through the cylinder 74. When the intelligent inspection robot of building facilities is working, the T-shaped rod 73 is rotated. Then, when the cylinder 74 moves on the inner wall of the support column 2, the threaded groove 81 on the surface of the cylinder 74 will rotate under the action of the pin 82. When the cylinder 74 rotates, the vertical rod 75 at the top of the cylinder 74 will also rotate. At this time, the disc 4 connected to the vertical rod 75 will also rotate, so that the monitoring camera 5 on the top of the disc 4 can rotate, thereby monitoring the building facilities in various directions.

[0023] The multi-angle structure 9 includes: a U-shaped block 91; the surface of the disc 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the U-shaped block 91; the inner wall of the U-shaped block 91 is slidably connected to the bottom of the T-shaped block 92; the top of the T-shaped block 92 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal plate 93; the top of the horizontal plate 93 is hinged to the round rod 94; the top of the round rod 94 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider 95; the surface of the slider 95 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixed block 96; the fixed block 96 is penetrated by the vertical rod 75; the surface of the slider 95 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the L-shaped rod 97; and the surface of the L-shaped rod 97 is connected to the surface of the sensor 6. With a fixed connection, when the disc 4 rotates, the U-shaped block 91 on the disc 4 will also rotate. At the same time, the T-shaped block 92 in the groove of the U-shaped block 91 will slide in the groove of the U-shaped block 91, and the round rod 94 on the horizontal plate 93 at the top of the T-shaped block 92 will drive the slider 95 to slide in the groove of the fixed block 96. At this time, the fixed block 96 will rotate on the vertical rod 75. At the same time, when the slider 95 slides and the fixed block 96 rotates, the sensor 6, which is fixedly connected to the L-shaped rod 97, will make a circular motion around the monitoring camera 5.

[0024] The support column 2 has an internal cavity that allows the half gear 72, cylinder 74, and rack 71 to move. The surface of the U-shaped block 91 has a groove for the T-shaped block 92 to move. This groove allows the T-shaped block 92 to move while the disk 4 rotates, simultaneously causing the fixed block 96 to rotate on the vertical rod 75. The bottom of the fixed block 96 has a sliding groove for the slider 95 to move. This groove allows the L-shaped rod 97 connected to the slider 95 to rotate while the slider 95 moves. The disk 4 also has an internal cavity. The structure can be made so that the fixed block 96, U-shaped block 91 and slider 95 can move normally without being affected. The top of the support column 2 has a hole, which allows the spring 76 and vertical rod 75 at the top of the cylinder 74 to pass through when the cylinder 74 moves. The middle of the tripod 3 has a hole for the spring 76 to move, which allows the spring 76 and vertical rod 75 at the top of the cylinder 74 to pass through when the cylinder 74 moves. The periphery of the monitoring camera 5 has a groove, which prevents the sensor 6 from shifting when it makes a circular motion.

[0025] Working Principle: The telescopic structure 7 raises the height of the support column 2, enabling monitoring of elevated structures. The rotating structure 8 rotates the disc 4, allowing the monitoring camera 5 to provide more comprehensive monitoring of the structures. When the intelligent inspection robot is working, the T-shaped rod 73 rotates, causing the half-gear 72 on the T-shaped rod 73 to move the rack 71 upwards on the inner wall of the support column 2. Simultaneously, the cylinder 74 at the top of the rack 71 also moves upwards. Furthermore, the vertical rod 75 on the cylinder 74, under the action of the spring 76, moves upwards, raising the entire support column 2 and enabling monitoring of elevated structures. When the intelligent inspection robot is working, rotating the T-shaped rod 73, and then the cylinder 74 moving on the inner wall of the support column 2, causes the threaded groove 81 on the surface of the cylinder 74 to open under the action of the pin 82. When the cylinder 74 rotates, the vertical rod 75 at the top of the cylinder 74 also rotates, and the disc 4 connected to the vertical rod 75 also rotates. This allows the monitoring camera 5 on the top of the disc 4 to rotate, thereby monitoring the building facilities in various directions. By setting up a multi-angle structure 9, the sensor 6 can make a circular motion around the monitoring camera 5. When the disc 4 rotates, the U-shaped block 91 on the disc 4 also rotates. At the same time, the T-shaped block 92 in the groove of the U-shaped block 91 will slide in the groove of the U-shaped block 91, and the round rod 94 on the horizontal plate 93 at the top of the T-shaped block 92 will drive the slider 95 to slide in the groove of the fixed block 96. At this time, the fixed block 96 will rotate on the vertical rod 75. At the same time, the L-shaped rod 97 on the fixed block 96 will make a circular motion around the monitoring camera 5 when the slider 95 slides and the fixed block 96 rotates.

[0026] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
