Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sump dredging robots, in particular to sump dredging robots. Background Art

[0002] The camera of a dredging robot is an important component for real-time monitoring and observing the internal situation of a pipeline. Through the camera, the dredging robot can transmit images and videos of the pipeline interior to an operator or a monitoring system to help the operator understand the actual situation of the pipeline.

[0003] Due to the large amount of sediment at the bottom of the sump, a relatively large amount of dirt will adhere to the camera of the dredging robot. The dirt on the camera of the dredging robot will cause the camera's field of view to be blurred, affecting the observation and operation of the dredging robot on the environment. Therefore, in order to ensure the normal operation of the dredging robot, it is necessary to clean the dirt on the surface of the camera in a timely manner to improve the working efficiency and accuracy of the dredging robot.

[0004] To solve this problem, a common dredging robot will add a wiper blade in front of the lens of the camera. The wiper blade is driven by a motor to rotate around the lens to scrape the dirt on the lens, so that the camera can take clearer pictures.

[0005] However, after the above-mentioned wiper blade scrapes the dirt, the dirt usually adheres to the wiper blade. When the wiper blade is used next time, the dirt will come into contact with the lens again, which easily causes a mud film to adhere to the lens, and this will affect the shooting clarity of the camera.

During this period, the situation in the internal pipes of the water collection well can be viewed through the camera 204, so that corresponding measures can be taken.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] Reference Figures 1 to 5 , which is the second embodiment of the utility model. This embodiment is based on the previous embodiment, and the difference is that a protective component 300 is connected to one side of the fixing rod 202, and the protective component 300 includes a connecting cover 301, a lens 302 connected to one side of the connecting cover, and a connecting piece 303 connected to the bottom of the connecting cover 301. After the camera 204 is installed on the clamp 203, the connecting cover 301 needs to be sleeved onto the lens of the camera 204, so that the lens of the camera 204 itself can be protected from dirt by the connecting cover 301 and the lens 302.

[0037] The connecting member 303 is connected to one side of the fixing rod 202 by bolts. One side of the connecting cover 301 is in contact with one side of the camera 204. After the connecting cover 301 is sleeved on the lens of the camera 204, the place where the through hole is opened on the connecting member 303 is pushed to the place where the through hole is opened on the fixing rod 202, and then the connecting member 303 and the fixing rod 202 are connected together by bolts.

[0038] In summary, after the camera 204 is installed on the clamp 203, the connecting cover 301 is sleeved on the lens of the camera 204, then the place where the through hole is opened on the connecting member 303 is pushed to the place where the through hole is opened on the fixing rod 202, and finally the connecting member 303 and the fixing rod 202 are fixed by bolts.

[0039] Embodiment 3

[0040] Refer to Figures 1 to 6 This is the third embodiment of the present utility model. This embodiment is based on the previous embodiment. The difference is that a cleaning assembly 400 is connected to one side of the connecting cover 301. The cleaning assembly 400 includes a rotating seat 402, a fixing groove 403 connected to one side of the rotating seat 402, a scraping rod 404 slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixing groove 403, and a magnet 405 connected to one side of the scraping rod 404. A hole is opened at the middle position of the connecting cover 301. The place where the rotating seat 402 is connected to the fixing groove 403 is arranged in the hole, while the place where the rotating seat 402 is not connected to the fixing groove 403 is inside the connecting cover 301. At the same time, triangular scraping blades are arranged on both sides of the scraping rod 404. When the rotating seat 402 rotates, the fixing groove 403 will drive the scraping rod 404 to rotate, and the scraping rod 404 will rotate to scrape the dirt on the two lenses 302.

[0041] The rotating seat 402 is rotatably connected to one side of the connecting cover 301. A servo motor 401 is installed on the inner wall of the connecting cover 301. The output end of the servo motor 401 is connected to one side of the rotating seat 402. The outer wall of the servo motor 401 is connected to the connecting cover 301 by bolts. Here, a flange is provided at the output end of the servo motor 401, and one side of the flange is connected to the rotating seat 402 by bolts.

[0042] The length of the scraping rod 404 is greater than the diameter of the lens 302. The magnet 405 is magnetically connected to one side of the fixing groove 403. A rubber block 406 is connected to the outer wall of one side of the magnet 405. The rubber block 406 is made of insulating material.

[0043] On one side of the fixed groove 403, there is a sliding groove 407. A rubber rod 408 with a square shape is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 407. The length of the rubber block 406 is greater than that of the fixed groove 403. The material of the sliding groove 407 is polytetrafluoroethylene, which has a relatively large coefficient of friction. At the same time, the rubber rod 408 is made of rubber and also has a relatively large coefficient of friction. When the rubber rod 408 is located in the sliding groove 407, only the frictional force between the two will ensure that the rubber rod 408 remains in place when it rotates a certain angle.

[0044] On one side of the rubber rod 408, there is a lead block 409. A groove with the same outer shape as the outer wall of one side of the fixed groove 403 is provided on the outer wall of one side of the lead block 409. The side of the lead block 409 with the groove is slidably connected to the outer wall of the fixed groove 403. The outer wall of one side of the lead block 409 is in contact with the outer wall of one side of the sliding groove 407. The weight of the lead block 409 is relatively heavy. When the rubber rod 408 is vertical, it will affect the downward movement of the rubber rod 408. At this time, the rubber rod 408 and the lead block 409 will move downward to the lower part of the fixed groove 403.

[0045] In summary, when cleaning the dirt on the lens 302, the servo motor 401 is started to drive the rotating seat 402 to rotate. At this time, the scraping rod 404 will be driven to rotate. When the rotating seat 402 rotates clockwise, it will drive the scraping rod 404 to rotate towards the left lens 302. At this time, the scraping rod 404 will scrape the dirt on the lens 302. When the scraping rod 404 rotates clockwise to the vertical state, the rubber rod 408 will also rotate to the vertical state. At this time, the rubber rod 408 will drop downward under the influence of the weight of the lead block 409, and the lead block 409 will hit the rubber block 406. Because the lead block 409 is heavy, a certain impact force will be generated. At this time, the magnet 405 and the scraping rod 404 will be hammered downward, so that the scraping rod 404 will return to its original position. When the scraping rod 404 falls, the fixed groove 403 will scrape the dirt on the scraping rod 404, thus avoiding the secondary pollution of the lens 302 by the dirt on the scraping rod 404. When the rotating seat 402 continues to rotate clockwise, it will drive the scraping rod 404 to continue scraping the dirt on the left lens 302. When the rotating seat 402 rotates counterclockwise, it will repeat the above work for the right lens 302;

[0046] It should be noted that when the two sides of the rubber rod 408 are replaced and drop downward, the lead block 409 will knock off the dirt scraped from the fixed groove 403. In this way, when the two sides of the fixed groove 403 rotate to the lower part in turn, the dirt will be knocked off by the lead block 409.

[0047] Importantly, it should be noted that the construction and arrangement of the present application shown in multiple different exemplary embodiments are merely illustrative. Although only a few embodiments are described in detail in this disclosure, those who refer to this disclosure should easily understand that many modifications are possible without substantially departing from the novel teachings and advantages of the subject matter described in this application (for example, the dimensions, scales, structures, shapes and proportions of various elements, and parameter values (such as temperature, pressure, etc.), installation arrangements, use of materials, color, orientation changes, etc.). For example, elements shown as integrally formed may be composed of multiple parts or elements, the positions of the elements may be inverted or otherwise changed, and the nature, number or position of discrete elements may be altered or changed. Therefore, all such modifications are intended to be included within the scope of the present utility model. The order or sequence of any process or method steps may be changed or reordered according to alternative embodiments. In the claims, any "means plus function" clauses are intended to cover the structures that perform the recited functions herein, and not only structural equivalents but also equivalent structures. Other substitutions, modifications, changes and omissions may be made in the design, operating conditions and arrangement of the exemplary embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the present utility model is not limited to a specific embodiment, but extends to various modifications that still fall within the scope of the appended claims.

[0048] In addition, in order to provide a concise description of the exemplary embodiments, not all features of the actual embodiments may be described (i.e., those features that are not relevant to the currently contemplated best mode of carrying out the present utility model, or those features that are not relevant to the implementation of the present utility model).

[0049] It should be understood that in the development of any actual implementation, as in any engineering or design project, a large number of specific implementation decisions may be made. Such development efforts may be complex and time-consuming, but for those of ordinary skill in the art who benefit from this disclosure, without excessive experimentation, such development efforts will be a routine task of design, manufacturing and production.

[0050] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present utility model and not to limit them. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present utility model may be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present utility model, and they should all be covered within the scope of the claims of the present utility model.
