When the staff fails to clean the dust in the mine environment, the dust will enter the interior of the rail robot due to gas circulation, which will cause the interior of the rail robot to be damaged or even explode and cause a fire due to excessive dust. For this reason, we propose a belt conveyor inspection robot. Utility Model Content

[0016] Beneficial Effects

[0017] The utility model provides a belt conveyor inspection robot. Compared with the prior art, it has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. A belt conveyor inspection robot, wherein the inspection robot body is slidably installed on a track through an electric pulley, the electric pulley facilitates the inspection robot body to actively walk on the track, the host computer is installed in the inspection robot body, and the host computer controls the dual-light camera and multi-function sensor on the inspection robot body to inspect the mine belt conveyor. There is a lot of dust under the mine, and an explosion-proof shell is installed on the outer periphery of the host computer, and an explosion-proof net is installed on the inner side of the explosion-proof shell.
