DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0014] Next, in combination with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0015] Embodiment 1: As Figures 1-3 shown, the present invention provides a multi-sensor component box for an orbital inspection robot, including a box body 1. Six circular grooves 14 are opened on the outer surface of the box body 1. Fixed wire connectors 5 are inserted through the outer surfaces of the six circular grooves 14. A circuit board 3 is fixedly arranged on the inner surface of the middle part of the box body 1. A plurality of wiring terminals 31 are fixedly arranged at the top of the circuit board 3. Buckles 4 are fixedly installed on the lower inner walls on both sides of the box body 1. Four first threaded grooves 10 are opened at the top of the box body 1. A box cover 2 is fixedly arranged at the top of the box body 1. Both the box cover 2 and the box body 1 are made of stainless steel to improve the protection of the circuit board 3 and the wiring terminals 31. Four bolts 21 are inserted through the outer surface of the box cover 2. The fixed wire connector 5 includes a wiring sleeve 51. One end of the wiring sleeve 51 passes through the circular groove 14 and abuts against the outer surface of the box body 1. A third threaded groove 55 is opened on the outer surface of one side of the wiring sleeve 51. A second threaded groove 52 is opened on the outer surface of the other side of the wiring sleeve 51. A plurality of elastic pieces 54 are fixedly connected to one end of the wiring sleeve 51. A fixed wire end 57 is threadedly sleeved on the outer surface of the second threaded groove 52. A nut 56 is threadedly sleeved on the outer surface of the third threaded groove 55. By inserting the six fixed wire connectors 5 through the six circular grooves 14 on the four end faces of the box body 1 respectively, a plurality of connection ports are provided for the wiring of the wiring terminals 31. The elastic pieces 54 arranged in a circular array in the fixed wire connector 5 are continuously gathered and clamped along the outer surface of the connecting wire body under the continuous rotation of the fixed wire end 57. The second threaded groove 52 and the third threaded groove 55 provide two different-direction clamping forces for the fixed wire end 57 and the nut 56 respectively. The operator can separate and disassemble the fixed wire connector 5 by rotating the nut 56 away from the third threaded groove 55, which is convenient for taking out and replacing the fixed wire connector 5 from the circular groove 14.

[0016] The buckle 4 includes a support plate 41, the bottom end of the support plate 41 is fixedly connected to the lower inner wall of the box body 1, one side of the top end of the support plate 41 is fixedly connected to a rotating seat 42, a pressing plate 43 is rotatably connected between the inner walls on both sides of the rotating seat 42, one end of the pressing plate 43 is rotatably connected to a roller 44, one end of the support plate 41 is threadedly inserted with a threaded rod 46, one end of the threaded rod 46 is fixedly connected to a knob 48, the other end of the threaded rod 46 is rotatably connected to a sliding block 47, and two limiting plates 45 are fixedly connected to the top end of the support plate 41. By rotating the knob 48 at one end of the buckle 4, the sliding block 47 slides linearly between the two limiting plates 45 under the restriction of the two limiting plates 45. The sliding sliding block 47 continuously approaches the pressing plate 43, so that the roller 44 at one end of the pressing plate 43 abuts against the inclined surface of the sliding block 47. The continuously moving sliding block 47 drives the roller 44 to rotate. While the roller 44 rotates, the pressing plate 43 is tilted downward in the direction of the circuit board 3, so that one end of the "L"-shaped pressing plate 43 clamps and presses one end of the circuit board 3, which facilitates the pressing and fixing and the disassembly and removal operations of the circuit board 3. Both sides of the bottom end of the box body 1 are fixedly connected with first side plates 11, two fixing grooves 12 are formed on the outer surfaces of the two first side plates 11, both ends of the box body 1 are fixedly connected with second side plates 13, and the second side plates 13 are "L"-shaped. The four bolts 21 and the four first threaded grooves 10 are on the same vertical line. Installation grooves are formed on the outer surfaces of the two second side plates 13. The operator can fixedly install the box body 1 at a specified position through the four fixing grooves 12 in the two first side plates 11 on both sides and the second side plates 13, which further improves the stability of the box body 1 during the continuous movement of the robot. One end of each of the six wiring sleeves 51 penetrates through the six circular grooves 14, and through grooves are formed on the outer surfaces of the wiring sleeves 51 and the wire fixing ends 57. A plurality of elastic pieces 54 are distributed in a circular array, and the plurality of elastic pieces 54 are inclined. The six wiring sleeves 51 are used in cooperation with the six circular grooves 14, which facilitates the operator to pass the wire body to be connected through the wiring sleeves 51 and extend it inside the box body 1 through the six circular grooves 14 and the wiring sleeves 51. The inclined plurality of elastic pieces 54 are for facilitating the clamping and gathering movement centered on the wire body under the movement of the wire fixing end 57. One end of the sliding block 47 is an inclined surface, and the sliding block 47 is located between the two limiting plates 45. The outer surfaces of both ends of the sliding block 47 are slidably attached to the outer surfaces of one ends of the two limiting plates 45. The two limiting plates 45 provide linear guidance for the movement of the sliding block 47, which facilitates the inclined surface of the sliding block 47 to push out and rotate the pressing plate 43 through linear movement.

[0017] Working principle: When the sensor needs to be wired, the bottom end of the box body 1 is fixed at a designated position through the first side plate 11 and the second side plate 13 on both sides, and then one end of the multiple connecting wires are respectively passed through the six fixed wire connectors 5, and the wire ends of the connecting wires pass through the third thread groove 55 from one end of the fixed wire end 57 to reach the inside of the box body 1, and the wire ends are respectively connected to the multiple wiring terminals 31 at the top of the circuit board 3. The operator rotates the fixed wire end 57 so that the fixed wire end 57 is continuously rotated and clamped through the second thread groove 52. The multiple inclined spring pieces 54 are gathered toward the outer surface of the wire body under the continuous movement of the fixed wire end 57. When one end of the fixed wire end 57 abuts against one end of the wiring sleeve 51, one end of the multiple spring pieces 54 jointly locks the wire body of the connecting wire. The operator can continuously abut and clamp the wiring sleeve 51 against the outer surface of the box body 1 by rotating the nut 56 under the action of the third thread groove 55. When replacement is required, the nut 56 is rotated to disengage one end of the wiring sleeve 51, and the wiring sleeve 51 is pulled away from the inner wall of the circular groove 14. When the circuit board 3 needs to be fixed, the operator can turn the knob 48 in the buckle 4 so that the knob 48 is threadedly rotated along the inner wall of one end of the support plate 41, and the rotating threaded rod 46 slides horizontally between the two limit plates 45 along the top of the support plate 41. The sliding sliding block 47 tilts and ejects the roller 44 through the inclined outer surface of one side, causing the roller 44 to rotate at one end of the pressure plate 43. The rotating roller 44 tilts and moves one end of the pressure plate 43 downward under the action of the inclined ejection, so that one end of the pressure plate 43 clamps one side of the circuit board 3, thereby completing the purpose of fixing the circuit board 3. Rotating the knob 48 in the opposite direction makes it convenient for the operator to disassemble the circuit board 3 and the terminal 31.

[0018] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is also intended to include these modifications and variations.
