[0002] When inspection robots need to conduct close-range monitoring over a large area in some scenarios, such as monitoring numerous instruments in power plants, fixed camera pans cannot accurately monitor the exact values ​​of each instrument, especially pointer-type instruments. The camera must face the instrument to read accurately. The camera pan can read accurately with a lifting rod. The existing electric lifting rods generally have two types of drive structures. One is a cheap pneumatic lifting rod, which is lifted and lowered by gas pressure. However, since high-pressure gas is required, it needs to be equipped with an air pump. In addition, the sealing of the lifting rod has high requirements. The other is a lifting rod structure that uses a drive motor, a lead screw and a wire rope. The lead screw is driven by a drive motor and then linked to the wire rope for lifting and lowering. However, this type of lifting rod has a complex structure, a large device size, and is inconvenient to use. In addition, its telescopic structure is relatively small and the lifting range is limited.

The multi-stage telescopic mechanism 3 comprises an intermediate tube 31 with openings at both ends and a hollow shape, and the end telescopic mechanism 4 comprises an inner tube 41 with openings at both ends and a hollow shape. The multi-stage telescopic mechanism 3 is provided with a plurality of intermediate tubes 31 of the multi-stage telescopic mechanism 3, and the intermediate tubes 31 of the plurality of multi-stage telescopic mechanisms 3 are telescopically sleeved in order from large to small in diameter. The intermediate tube 31 with the largest diameter is telescopically arranged in the outer tube 2, and the inner tube 41 is telescopically arranged in the intermediate tube 31 with the smallest diameter.

[0029] See also Figure 4-5 The lifting drive mechanism 5 includes an active screw rod 51 which is rotatably arranged in the outer cylinder 2 and extends axially along the outer cylinder 2 to the intermediate cylinder 31 and the inner cylinder 41. The active screw rod 51 is used to drive the intermediate cylinder 31 to extend and retract relative to the outer cylinder 2 while driving the inner cylinder 41 to extend and retract relative to the intermediate cylinder 31 synchronously, so that the intermediate cylinder 31 extends outward relative to the inner cylinder 41 while the inner cylinder 41 also extends outward relative to the intermediate cylinder 31, which not only improves the telescopic efficiency but also greatly increases the telescopic distance; when the electric lifting rod stops being used, the intermediate cylinder 31 can be retracted into the outer cylinder 2 while the inner cylinder 41 is also retracted into the intermediate cylinder 31, so that the entire structure is compact, occupies little space, and is easy to place and use.

[0030] See also Figure 5-7 The multi-stage telescopic mechanism 3 includes a first screw nut 32 and a hollow screw 33.

[0035] See also Figure 1 as well as Figure 5 The end telescopic mechanism 4 includes a second screw nut 42 connected to the bottom end of the inner cylinder 41, and the second screw nut 42 is threadedly sleeved on the hollow screw 33. The inner peripheral wall of the intermediate cylinder 31 is provided with a plurality of third guide grooves 312 along its axial direction, and the outer peripheral wall of the inner cylinder 41 is provided with a third convex strip 411 adapted to the plurality of third guide grooves 312 along its axial direction. The third convex strip 411 is used to limit the rotation of the outer cylinder 2 relative to the intermediate cylinder 31, and when the hollow screw 33 rotates, the second screw nut 42 drives the inner cylinder 41 to telescope relative to the intermediate cylinder 31, and in this process, the third guide groove 312 plays a guiding and limiting role.

[0037] See also Figure 2 as well as Figure 6The lifting drive mechanism 5 includes a servo motor 52, two bearing seats 53, a worm 54 and a worm wheel 55. The servo motor 52 and the two bearing seats 53 arranged opposite to each other are arranged on the bottom surface of the bottom plate 1 facing away from the outer cylinder 2. The worm 54 is rotatably mounted on the two bearing seats 53. The output shaft of the servo motor 52 is connected to one end of the worm 54 through a belt to drive the worm 54 to rotate. The worm wheel 55 meshing with the worm 54 is fixedly sleeved on one end of the active screw 51 passing through the bottom plate 1.

The instrument equipment is detected and read through the photographic platform 7. The photographic platform 7 can adopt the structure in the prior art, and its structure will not be repeated here.

[0039] The working principle of the utility model electric lifting rod is: Figure 1 as well as Figure 4-6 When the servo motor 52 is started in the forward direction, the worm 54 is driven by the belt to rotate, and the worm 54 drives the active screw 51 to rotate together through the worm wheel 55 meshing therewith. The first screw nut 32 is driven by the active screw 51 to move axially along the active screw 51, thereby driving the intermediate cylinder 31 to extend outward relative to the outer cylinder 2; at the same time, the active screw 51 drives the hollow screw 33 to rotate synchronously through the second guide groove 511, and under the drive of the hollow screw 33, the second screw nut 42 moves axially along the hollow screw 33, thereby driving the inner cylinder 41 to extend outward relative to the intermediate cylinder 31, and the telescopic speed is fast, so that the photographic platform 7 at one end of the inner cylinder 41 moves quickly to the preset position for detection and reading; on the contrary, when the servo motor 52 is started in the reverse direction, the movement or rotation direction of the above structure moves in the opposite direction, so that the inner cylinder 41 retracts into the intermediate cylinder 31 while the intermediate cylinder 31 retracts into the outer cylinder 2.
