Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wall-climbing robots, and more specifically, to a wall-climbing robot. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous advancement of the social urbanization process, high-rise buildings have sprung up. High-rise buildings save a large amount of land resources, accelerate urban construction, and promote social development. Along with the rapid increase in the number of high-rise buildings, the problem of their large maintenance and cleaning difficulty has become increasingly prominent.

[0003] A wall-climbing robot is a device for realizing high-altitude operations. Such robots are mainly divided into two types. One is a magnetic adsorption high-altitude cleaning robot, which relies on magnetic adsorption materials to adsorb to high-altitude wall surfaces. Usually, it has a strong adsorption force and can realize adsorption movement on high-altitude wall surfaces and complete specified operations through magnetic tracks, wheels, positioning suction cups or foot-type structures. The other is a high-altitude wall-mounted track type, usually installing high-altitude wall tracks on the outer wall high-altitude wall surfaces when building a building.

[0004] Among them, through retrieval, it is found that the patent with the patent application number CN202121016811.2 discloses a wall-climbing robot, including a vehicle board, wheels are installed at each corner of the vehicle board, an adsorption component is installed on the vehicle board; a thrust component is installed above the vehicle board, and the thrust component rotates relative to the vehicle board. When the adsorption component and the thrust component are turned on, the vehicle board moves relative to the wall surface.

[0005] When this structure is in use, through the thrust component and the adsorption component, an adsorption air flow is generated in the adsorption component, so that the vehicle board can be adsorbed on the wall surface. At the same time, the thrust component generates different thrust air flows, and this thrust air flow can make the vehicle board have a thrust inclined downward, so that the vehicle board can move stably on the wall surface. However, the stability of the robot during climbing is assisted by the thrust generated by the air flow, which also results in a large resistance when the robot climbs on the wall surface, affecting the climbing efficiency. Summary of the Utility Model

[0006] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the utility model provides a wall-climbing robot, aiming to solve the problems proposed in the above background art.

[0007] The utility model is implemented as follows. The utility model provides the following technical solution: a wall-climbing robot, including a protective cover, and a positioning and climbing component is arranged on the protective cover.

[0008] The positioning and climbing component includes a reinforcing support frame arranged inside the protective cover. An installation cavity groove is penetrated through the reinforcing support frame. Valves are arranged at both ends of the reinforcing support frame, and a positioning suction cup is arranged at one end of each valve.

[0009] Support wheels are arranged on both sides of the protective cover. An anti-slip wheel is sleeved outside the support wheel. A number of auxiliary suction cups are distributed outside the anti-slip wheel. A pump is arranged at one end of the valve, and a controller is arranged on the pump.

[0010] It can be seen that in the above technical solution, the support wheel and the anti-slip wheel rotate, which is conducive to the device moving on the wall surface. When the support wheel and the anti-slip wheel rotate, each auxiliary suction cup will come into contact with the wall surface one by one, increasing the friction between the anti-slip wheel and the wall surface and ensuring the stability during its displacement. Moreover, when the device is in use, the controller controls the operation of the pump, and the air flow is delivered to the positioning suction cup through the valve. Through the corresponding cooperation of each positioning suction cup and the pump, the functions of alternate adsorption are realized through the suction and deflation of each positioning suction cup, ensuring the stability of the device during displacement on the wall surface.

[0011] Optionally, in a possible implementation manner, a scraping plate is arranged at one end of the reinforcing support frame. The scraping plate is detachably connected to the reinforcing support frame. The scraping plate and the positioning suction cup are on the same axis line. A reinforcing support plate is arranged at the top of the reinforcing support frame. A clamping block is arranged on the reinforcing support plate, and a sensor is arranged on the clamping block. A limiting port is penetrated through the surface of the protective cover, and the limiting port matches the clamping block. Driving motors are arranged on both sides of the inner wall of the protective cover, and each driving motor is installed on the reinforcing support frame. A rotating shaft is arranged at the output end of the driving motor, and the rotating shaft is installed on the support wheel.

[0012] It can be seen that in the above technical solution, the scraping plate cleans the impurities on the adsorption path of the positioning suction cup to ensure the stability of the positioning suction cup during adsorption. At the same time, through the setting of the installation cavity groove, the cleaning mechanism can be installed on the reinforcing support frame to clean the wall surface, which is conducive to the device installing different tools.

[0013] The technical effects and advantages of the present utility model:

[0014] By setting the positioning and climbing component, compared with the prior art, through the corresponding cooperation of each structure, when the support wheel and the anti-slip wheel rotate, each auxiliary suction cup will come into contact with the wall surface one by one, increasing the friction between the anti-slip wheel and the wall surface;

[0015] Through the corresponding cooperation of each positioning suction cup and the pump, the functions of alternate adsorption are realized through the suction and deflation of each positioning suction cup, ensuring the stability of the device during displacement on the wall surface;

[0016] The impurities on the adsorption path of the positioning suction cup are cleaned by the scraper to ensure the stability of the positioning suction cup during adsorption. Brief Description of the Drawings

Detailed Embodiments

Through the corresponding cooperation of each positioning suction cup 5 and the pump 6, through the suction and deflation of each positioning suction cup 5, the function of alternating adsorption is realized, ensuring the stability of the device during displacement on the wall. At the same time, when the device is displaced, the impurities on the adsorption path of the positioning suction cup 5 are cleaned by the scraper 8, ensuring the stability when the positioning suction cup 5 adsorbs, and the specific structure of the component is set as follows;

[0026] The positioning and climbing component includes a reinforcing support frame 2 arranged inside the protective cover 1.
