Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of inspection robots, in particular to a pan-tilt side-mounted track inspection robot. Background Art
[0002] The pan-tilt heads used in the domestic rail-mounted inspection robots are all suspended from below. The advantage of this method is that the center of gravity of the robot is always kept at a low position, and the robot's movement posture is not easy to change. However, when the robot needs to observe the dome above the track, the robot body suspended under the pan-tilt head will block the camera, making it impossible to complete the observation. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the above problems existing in the prior art, the main purpose of the utility model is to provide a pan-tilt side-mounted track inspection robot.
[0004] The technical solution of the utility model is as follows: a pan-tilt side-mounted track inspection robot comprises an electrical installation box, a driving assembly is arranged on the top of the electrical installation box, one side of the electrical installation box is fixedly connected to a body side panel, a pan-tilt assembly is arranged on one side of the body side panel, a fixing hole for cooperating with the pan-tilt assembly is arranged inside the body side panel, and a network port is arranged on the outer wall of the electrical installation box and on the side away from the pan-tilt assembly.
[0005] As a preferred implementation, an antenna group is provided on the top of the electrical installation box and on a side away from the driving assembly.
[0006] As a preferred implementation, a temperature and humidity sensor is provided on the top of the electrical installation box and below the antenna group.
[0007] As a preferred implementation, an ultrasonic obstacle avoidance sensor is provided on one side of the electrical appliance mounting box.
[0008] As a preferred implementation, a robot status indicator light is provided on one side of the electrical appliance mounting box and below the ultrasonic obstacle avoidance sensor.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment, the outer wall of the electrical appliance mounting box is provided with mounting rivets.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment, a mounting groove for cooperating with the drive assembly is provided on the top of the electrical installation box.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of the utility model are:
[0012] In the utility model, the movement of the inspection robot can be controlled by the arranged driving assembly, and the pan-tilt assembly is installed through the through holes on the side panels of the fuselage and the fixing holes on the fuselage frame. The fuselage frame is welded by a combination of angle steel and sheet metal bending parts. The frame has high rigidity and the weight of the pan-tilt is low, so the installation strength of the pan-tilt is appropriate, and there will be no reciprocating movement due to insufficient installation rigidity during movement. After the pan-tilt is changed to side-mounted, in order to ensure that the mass distribution of the robot on the left and right sides of the track is uniform, the driving device of the robot is offset to the side of the pan-tilt. The pan-tilt assembly has two degrees of freedom in two directions, and can perform 360-degree rotation without dead angles in the horizontal direction and 180-degree pitch in the vertical direction. Therefore, the track-type robot with the pan-tilt side mounted can observe all information on the pan-tilt side without dead angles, which greatly improves the operation quality and use efficiency compared with traditional devices.

[0018] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments.
[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Example
[0020] like Figure 1-Figure 4As shown, the utility model provides a technical solution: a pan-tilt side-mounted track inspection robot, comprising an electrical installation box 1, a driving assembly 2 is arranged on the top of the electrical installation box 1, one side of the electrical installation box 1 is fixedly connected to a body side panel 9, a pan-tilt assembly 3 is arranged on one side of the body side panel 9, a fixing hole 10 for cooperating with the pan-tilt assembly 3 is arranged inside the body side panel 9, and a network port 8 is arranged on the outer wall of the electrical installation box 1 and on the side away from the pan-tilt assembly 3.
[0021] In this embodiment, the movement of the inspection robot can be controlled by the drive assembly 2, and the pan-tilt assembly 3 is installed through the through hole on the fuselage side panel 9 and the fixing hole 10 on the fuselage frame. The fuselage frame is welded by a combination of angle steel and sheet metal bending parts. The frame has high rigidity and the pan-tilt is relatively light, so the installation strength of the pan-tilt is appropriate, and there will be no reciprocating movement caused by insufficient installation rigidity during movement. After the pan-tilt is changed to side-mounted, in order to ensure that the mass distribution of the robot on the left and right sides of the track is uniform, the robot's drive device is offset to the pan-tilt side. The pan-tilt assembly 3 has two degrees of freedom in two directions, and can rotate 360 degrees horizontally without dead angles and pitch 180 degrees vertically, so the track-type robot with the pan-tilt side mounted can observe all information on the pan-tilt side without dead angles. Example
[0022] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, an antenna group 4 is arranged on the top of the electrical installation box 1 and on the side away from the driving component 2; a temperature and humidity sensor 5 is arranged on the top of the electrical installation box 1 and below the antenna group 4; an ultrasonic obstacle avoidance sensor 7 is arranged on one side of the electrical installation box 1; a robot status indicator light 6 is arranged on one side of the electrical installation box 1 and below the ultrasonic obstacle avoidance sensor 7; mounting rivets are arranged on the outer wall of the electrical installation box 1; and a mounting groove used in conjunction with the driving component 2 is arranged on the top of the electrical installation box 1.
[0023] In this embodiment, the antenna group 4 can provide a signal for the inspection robot, the temperature and humidity sensor 5 can detect the temperature and humidity near the inspection robot, and the ultrasonic obstacle avoidance sensor 7 can prevent the inspection robot from colliding with foreign objects when moving. The installation rivets can make the structure of the electrical installation box 1 more stable, and the robot status indicator 6 can be used to observe the use status of the inspection robot.
[0024] Working principle:
[0025] like Figure 1-Figure 4As shown, the movement of the inspection robot can be controlled by the drive assembly 2, and the pan-tilt assembly 3 is installed through the through hole on the fuselage side plate 9 and the fixing hole 10 on the fuselage frame. The fuselage frame is welded by a combination of angle steel and sheet metal bending parts. The frame has high rigidity and the pan-tilt is low in weight, so the installation strength of the pan-tilt is appropriate, and there will be no reciprocating swing caused by insufficient installation rigidity during movement. After the pan-tilt is changed to side-mounted, in order to ensure that the mass distribution of the robot on the left and right sides of the track is uniform, the robot's drive device is offset to the pan-tilt side. The pan-tilt assembly 3 has two degrees of freedom in two directions, and can rotate 360 degrees without dead angles in the horizontal direction and pitch 180 degrees in the vertical direction. Therefore, the track-type robot with the pan-tilt side mounted can observe all information on the pan-tilt side without dead angles. The antenna group 4 can provide signals for the inspection robot. The temperature and humidity sensor 5 can detect the temperature and humidity near the inspection robot. The ultrasonic obstacle avoidance sensor 7 can prevent the inspection robot from colliding with foreign objects when moving. By providing the installation rivets, the structure of the electrical installation box 1 can be made more stable, and by providing the robot status indicator light 6, the use status of the inspection robot can be observed, which greatly improves the operation quality and use efficiency compared with traditional devices.
