[0003] The intelligent inspection robot is generally designed as a device with multi-angle monitoring and shooting, and can move freely on the ground. The device has an intelligent system inside, and is widely accepted and applied in the form of an intelligent robot. Because the intelligent inspection robot has high intelligence and convenient real-time monitoring functions, it is now widely used not only in power grids and power plants, but also in fields and places, such as factories, libraries and other indoor and outdoor places.
[0004] In some usage sites, after long-term use, or when the site itself is prone to generating a lot of dust, a layer of dust will adhere to the robot's shooting surface, and the dust will block the shooting line of sight, greatly affecting the inspection shooting. In addition, on rainy days, as rain falls on the transparent plate of the camera surface, the water droplets have the effect of refracting light, which will also affect the shooting effect of the optical camera, thereby affecting the good use of the intelligent inspection robot. Therefore, a new type of intelligent inspection robot is needed. Utility Model Content

[0032] Embodiment 3
[0033] Combined with Figure 1-4 A camera 8 is connected to one side of the monitoring device 7, and searchlights 31 are connected to both ends of the monitoring device 7 near the camera 8 to provide light for the monitoring device 7 to perform shooting and monitoring. A transparent baffle 9 is connected to the monitoring device 7 above the camera 8. A water pipe 21 is connected to the top of the monitoring device 7, and a No. 1 water pump 22 is connected to the water pipe 21, which is used to transport the water in the water supply tank 20 to each nozzle 24 for spraying through the water pipe 21. The water pipe 21 is downwardly connected to a plurality of nozzles 24 that cooperate with the camera 8, and the bottom end of the nozzle 24 extends to the bottom of the transparent baffle 9.

[0034] Water is sprayed on the camera 8 through multiple nozzles 24 arranged above the monitoring device 7, so that the dust attached to the surface of the camera 8 can be cleaned. The power provided by the No. 1 water pump 22 makes the water flow sprayed by the nozzle 24 more intense, thereby making the dust removal effect at the camera 8 faster and more effective.
[0035] Embodiment 4
[0036] Combined with Figure 1-5A water collecting tank 25 is connected to the lower side of the monitoring device 7 near the camera 8, and a waste water tank 27 is connected to the side of the body 1 away from the water supply tank 20. A drain pipe 26 is connected between the bottom of the water collecting tank 25 and the waste water tank 27. A telescopic hose 23 is connected to the water supply pipe 21 and the drain pipe 26, so that when the monitoring device 7 rotates on the body 1, it is not restricted by the water supply pipe 21 and the drain pipe 26. A drain port 28 is connected to one side of the bottom of the waste water tank 27 for discharging water in the waste water tank 27. A No. 2 water pump 29 is connected to the drain port 28 to speed up the drainage speed and drain the water in the waste water tank 27. A connecting shaft 34 is rotatably connected in the water collecting tank 25. A No. 4 motor 33 that cooperates with the connecting shaft 34 is connected to the side of the water collecting tank 25 away from the monitoring device 7 to provide power for the rotation of the connecting shaft 34. The connecting shaft 34 is located in the water collecting tank 25 and is connected to a scraper 32 that cooperates with the camera 8.
[0037] The sewage from cleaning the camera 8 can be collected by the water collecting trough 25 provided below the monitoring device 7 to prevent it from flowing downwards and polluting the body 1 and the ground of the inspection site. The scraper 32 is provided with a sponge pad. The scraper 32 is driven by the No. 4 motor 33 to rotate back and forth on the surface of the camera 8 of the monitoring device 7, so that the fan-shaped area passed by can be scrubbed, thereby making the operation effect of the surface of the water-washing camera 8 more significant. When raindrops fall on the surface of the camera 8 on rainy days, the rainwater on the surface of the camera 8 can be scraped off like a car wiper, and the rainwater can be prevented from covering the surface of the camera 8 and affecting the shooting and inspection effect of the monitoring device 7.
[0038] When the utility model is implemented, the device roughly operates similarly to ordinary intelligent inspection robots on the market. It moves in the inspection site through the power provided by the power wheel 14 below and the matching No. 2 motor 16. When turning is required, the guide wheel 17 controlled by the No. 3 motor 19 in the body 1 can help with the reversal. The monitoring device 7 above the body 1 is equipped with a camera 8, which can shoot and monitor the equipment and facilities in the site. The monitoring device 7 is equipped with an adjustment function, which respectively achieves the effect of adjusting the horizontal position angle and the vertical direction angle through the rotating support column 2 and the electric telescopic mechanism that lifts up and down, thereby realizing intelligent inspection; after long-term use, or when the inspection site is heavily dusty, the intelligent control system can start the No. 1 water pump 22 on the water pipe 21 on one side of the body 1, so that the clean water in the water supply tank 20 of the body 1 passes through the various nozzles above the surface where the camera 8 is provided. 24 is sprayed toward the camera 8, and under the scraping and scrubbing action of the scraper 32 driven by the No. 4 motor 33, the dust attached to the shooting surface of the monitoring device 7 is washed away, so as to prevent the dust from covering the shooting line of sight and affecting the inspection effect. After flushing, the sewage with dust flows into the sump 25 under the monitoring device 7, and enters the waste water tank 27 of the body 1 along the drain pipe 26 for temporary storage. When it is necessary to process it, the No. 2 water pump 29 on one side of the bottom of the waste water tank 27 is turned on, and the waste water is discharged uniformly through the drain port 28. When encountering the situation of inspection on rainy days, the scraper 32 located on the surface of the camera 8 can rotate back and forth at the camera 8 at a suitable running speed, so as to scrape off the rainwater falling on the shooting place of the monitoring device 7, similar to the windshield wiper of a car, so that the scraped surface can be kept clean for a short time, which is conducive to the intelligent robot to perform inspection, monitoring and shooting tasks well on rainy days.
[0039] The above description of the utility model and its implementation methods is not restrictive. The drawings show only one implementation method of the utility model, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. In short, if ordinary technicians in this field are inspired by it and design structural methods and embodiments similar to the technical solution without creativity without departing from the purpose of the invention of the utility model, they should all fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
