DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The technical solution of the utility model is further described below, but the scope of protection required is not limited to the description.
[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, a self-adjusting tensioning device for a crawler unmanned platform walking system includes a tensioning device frame 1 and a tensioning wheel and a follower component 2; the tensioning device frame 1 is connected to the tensioning wheel and the follower component 2 through a shock-absorbing spring self-adjusting mechanism 3, a crawler anti-falling mechanism and a follower component 4.
[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, the tensioning device frame 1 is welded by aluminum plates and aluminum bars. The tensioning device frame 1 is respectively installed on both sides of the vehicle body by bolts and nuts to the frame base 101. The fixed guide rail 203 for moving the tensioning wheel 204 and the linear guide rail 5 for preventing the track from falling off are both connected to the tensioning device frame 1 by screws.
[0024] like Figure 3 and 4 As shown, the tensioning wheel 204 is installed on both sides of the frame through the tensioning wheel shaft 206, and the tensioning wheel and follower component 2 includes two tensioning wheels 204, a tensioning wheel shaft system, and a tensioning wheel shaft sleeve 202; the tensioning wheel shaft sleeve 202 and the tensioning wheel shaft 206 are coaxially clearance-matched and used to fix one end of the shock-absorbing spring 302; the two tensioning wheel shaft bearings 205 are interference-fitted with the tensioning wheel shaft 206 and are placed in the upper and lower fixed guide rail 203 grooves. At this time, the two tensioning wheel shaft bearings 205 are used as wheels that follow the tensioning wheel 204 and its tensioning wheel shaft system forward and backward. When the track is impacted, the shock-absorbing spring 302 contracts and drives the tensioning wheel 204 and its tensioning wheel shaft system to move backward to absorb the vibration impact of the entire machine, thereby solving the problem of the track breaking or falling off due to impact.
[0025] like Figure 5As shown, the shock-absorbing spring self-adjusting mechanism 3 includes a shock-absorbing spring 302 and a shock-absorbing fixed threaded rod 301, the shock-absorbing spring 302 and the shock-absorbing fixed threaded rod 301 are hinged by bolts, one end of the shock-absorbing spring self-adjusting mechanism 3 is fixed to the tensioning wheel shaft sleeve 202 by bolts and nuts, and the other end is connected to the threaded rod 301 by two locking nuts and fixed to the frame base 101. At this time, the two ends of the shock-absorbing spring self-adjusting mechanism 3 remain fixed to realize the spring shock-absorbing self-adjusting function.
[0026] like Figure 6 As shown, the crawler anti-drop mechanism and follower component 4 include two anti-drop baffles 402, two baffle connectors 403 and two linear guide sliders 401. The anti-drop baffle 402 is connected to the upper end of the baffle connector 403 by bolts and nuts, and the lower end of the baffle connector 403 is connected to the two ends of the tensioning wheel shaft sleeve 202 by screws. At this time, the tensioning wheel shaft sleeve 202 is restricted by the baffle connector 403 and will not rotate due to the rotation of the tensioning wheel shaft 206. The linear guide 5 is located between the tensioning device frame 1 and the baffle connector 403, and the linear guide slider 401 is connected to the baffle connector 403 by 4 screws and assembled in the linear guide 5. The function of the connection between the baffle connector 403 and the linear guide slider 401 is to limit the rotation of the tensioning wheel shaft sleeve 202 following the tensioning wheel shaft 206 and to realize the follow-up of the track anti-falling mechanism and the follower component 4, killing two birds with one stone.
[0027] Furthermore, the three sets of parts, namely, the anti-dropping baffle 402, the baffle connector 403, and the linear guide slider 401, are all placed at both ends of the head of the tensioning device frame 1 and are symmetrical.
[0028] Furthermore, the head of the tensioning device frame 1 is easy to disassemble and install, has an ingenious structure, and is easy to maintain.
[0029] Furthermore, the tensioning wheel 204 is symmetrically located at both ends of the tensioning wheel shaft 206, the tensioning wheel hub bearing 207 is connected to the bearing end covers 201 at both ends by screws, and the entire tensioning wheel 204 and its tensioning wheel shaft are symmetrically located at both ends of the head of the tensioning device frame 1.
[0030] Furthermore, the track anti-falling mechanism and the follower component 4 are installed on the left and right sides of the vehicle body through bolts and nuts. The track anti-falling mechanism and the follower component 4 can keep the track unmanned platform in a good tensioned working state when passing through complex road conditions such as ditches and ridges. When the track is impacted, the shock-absorbing spring self-adjusting mechanism 3 can play a buffering role to absorb the vibration impact of the entire machine, maintain the tension of the track, and prevent it from breaking or falling off due to impact.
[0031] Furthermore, the frame head stopper 102 can be used as a lock of the tensioning device frame 1. After the tensioning wheel shaft system and the shock-absorbing spring self-adjusting mechanism 3 are assembled, they can be directly placed in the tensioning device frame 1. The frame head stopper 102 can be connected to the frame base 101 with screws, which can achieve convenient assembly and disassembly, and low maintenance cost and time.
[0032] To sum up, the utility model adopts a combination of screw stroke adjustment and shock-absorbing spring adaptive adjustment. Through the tensioning wheel and shock-absorbing spring follow-up, the track anti-falling mechanism and the follow-up components, the track tensioning self-adjustment and the whole process of preventing the track from breaking and falling off can be realized; the track can be automatically tensioned and relaxed, and the adjustment amount is large. It adopts a combination of manual adjustment and automatic adjustment, has high reliability, ingenious structure, and low manufacturing and maintenance costs.
