[0040] Embodiment 1
[0041] Referring to Figures 1-7 , for the first embodiment of the present utility model, an anti-collision mechanism is provided. This device includes
[0042] The installation unit 100 includes an installation seat 101, a support frame 102 disposed on the installation seat 101, and a support base 103 disposed directly below the installation seat 101; the installation unit 100 is used to install the entire anti-collision mechanism on the surface of the control box 401.
[0043] The buffer unit 200 includes an adjustment plate 201 disposed on the support frame 102, an adjustment plate 202 slidably disposed at one end of the adjustment plate 201, a fixed shaft 203 disposed on the adjustment plate 202, and a buffer assembly 204 disposed on the adjustment plate 202; and, the hydraulic unit 300 includes a support plate 301 disposed on the adjustment plate 202, a push bucket 302 disposed on the support plate 301, and a hydraulic assembly 303 disposed on one side of the push bucket 302. The buffer assembly 204 in the buffer unit 200 and the hydraulic assembly 303 in the hydraulic unit 300 are both for providing support and reaction force to the intelligent inspection device after it falls, ensuring that the intelligent inspection device does not collide.
[0044] Among them, the buffer assembly 204 includes a sector guide rail 204a disposed on the adjustment plate 202, a guide block 204b disposed on the adjustment plate 201, a guide rail groove 204c disposed on the sector guide rail 204a, and a connecting column 204d slidably disposed in the guide rail groove 204c, and the connecting column 204d is disposed between the guide blocks 204b; a limit sleeve 205 is disposed on the fixed shaft 203, and a pressing member 206 is slidably disposed on the limit sleeve 205, and one end of the pressing member 206 is slidably disposed on the fixed shaft 203. The guide block 204b slides on the sector track to support the adjustment plate 201 and the adjustment plate 202, preventing displacement at the connection between the adjustment plate 201 and the adjustment plate 202.
[0045] Among them, the buffer assembly 204 further includes an adjusting rod 204e disposed on the guide block 204b, a positioning sleeve 204f disposed on the adjusting rod 204e, an adjusting rod 204g slidably disposed on the positioning sleeve 204f, and an adjusting rod 204h rotatably disposed on the adjusting rod 204g. One end of the adjusting rod 204h is rotatably disposed on the fan-shaped track. The diameter of the adjusting rod 204g is smaller than that of the adjusting rod 204e. When the adjusting rod 204g slides in the adjusting rod 204e to enable the adjusting plate 202 to slide on the fan-shaped track, the connection point between the adjusting rod 204g and the adjusting rod 204h remains unchanged, and always presses the pressing member 206 to form a first-stage buffer.
[0046] During use, the pusher 302 on the support plate 301 can push the obstacles on the road surface to both sides away from the crawlers 402c, and the length of the pusher 302 is greater than the distance between the two crawlers 402c, so as to prevent the obstacles pushed by the pusher 302 from shifting under the crawlers 402c, effectively preventing the protrusion of the obstacles from hindering the advancement of the anti-collision mechanism.
[0047] If it is difficult for the pusher 302 to push the obstacles protruding from the ground, at this time, the buffer assembly 204 starts to work. Taking the fixed shaft 203 as the fulcrum, the guide block 204b and the connecting column 204d slide and buffer on the fan-shaped track. The adjusting plates 201 and 202 are used to connect the support frame 102 and the support plate 301. The adjusting rod 204g can extend and contract in the adjusting rod 204e. The angle of the connection point between the adjusting rod 204g and the adjusting rod 204h gradually becomes smaller, pressing the pressing member 206. The addition of the buffer assembly 204 provides additional stability. When encountering difficult-to-push obstacles or collisions, the buffer assembly can absorb the impact and reduce the impact on the main structure, thereby improving the overall stability.
[0048] The pressing member 206 is composed of a telescopic column 303e and a spring. The telescopic column 303e can extend into the fixed shaft 203 when the spring is squeezed, forming the first-stage buffer of the anti-collision mechanism and increasing the anti-squeezing ability of the anti-collision mechanism. Since the pressing member 206 is composed of the telescopic column 303e and the spring, this design can absorb more energy when the spring is compressed, reduce the wear of other components of the anti-collision mechanism, and thus improve the durability of the anti-collision mechanism.
[0049] Embodiment 2
[0050] Refer to Figures 3-5, which is the second embodiment of the present utility model. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the hydraulic component 303 includes a fixed base 303a disposed on the support plate 301, a hydraulic base 303b slidably disposed on the fixed base 303a, a hydraulic component 303c disposed on the hydraulic base 303b, a telescopic sleeve 303d disposed between the hydraulic components 303c, and a telescopic column 303e disposed on the telescopic sleeve 303d. What the hydraulic component 303 realizes is to control the movement of the telescopic column 303e in the telescopic sleeve 303d through the hydraulic base 303b, so as to support the support frame 102.
[0051] Compared with Embodiment 1, further, a first connecting base 303f is provided on the hydraulic component 303c, a positioning column 303g is provided on the connecting base, a second connecting base 303h is provided on the telescopic column 303e, and a positioning hole 303i is provided on the second connecting base 303h. The positioning column 303g is positioned in the positioning hole 303i to prevent displacement when the first connecting base 303f contacts the second connecting base 303h, facilitating the sensing joint to sense the pressure brought by the outside world.
[0052] During the use process, the buffer component 204 is the first-stage buffer for the anti-collision mechanism. When the guide block 204b and the connecting column 204d slide in the guide rail groove 204c, the telescopic column 303e also slides in the telescopic sleeve 303d. When the angle between the connecting points of the second adjusting rod 204g and the third adjusting rod 204h in the buffer component 204 is relatively large, the telescopic rod pushes the hydraulic base 303b at one end of the telescopic sleeve 303d to slide a certain distance on the fixed base 303a, preventing the telescopic column 303e and the telescopic sleeve 303d from breaking due to excessive angle. Moreover, the telescopic sleeve 303d and the hydraulic base 303b are movably connected, and the telescopic sleeve 303d can adjust the angle on the hydraulic base 303b. Similarly, the hydraulic component 303c and the hydraulic base 303b are also movably connected, and the hydraulic component 303c can also adjust the angle on the hydraulic base 303b.
[0053] When the second connecting base 303h on the telescopic column 303e fits with the first connecting base 303f, the positioning column 303g is positioned in the positioning hole 303i, and the hydraulic base 303b controls the extension of the hydraulic component 303c, adjusting the tilted first adjusting plate 201 and the second adjusting plate 202 to the normal working angle, thereby avoiding damage to the anti-collision mechanism.
[0054] The remaining structures are the same as those in Embodiment 1.
[0055] Embodiment 3
[0056] Refer to Figures 1-7 , which is the third embodiment of the present utility model. The difference between this embodiment and the second embodiment is that an intelligent inspection device includes
[0057] The control unit 400 includes a control box 401, and a moving component 402 is arranged on the control box 401; and, the detection unit 500 includes a control base 501 arranged on the control box 401, a detection component 502 movably arranged on the control base 501, and a grasping component 503 arranged on one side of the detection component 502. The control box 401 is used to transmit instructions to the moving component 402, the detection component 502 and the grasping component 503 to control their operations; the moving component 402 drives the movement of the intelligent inspection robot, the detection component 502 is used to detect the items to be detected, and the grasping component 503 is used to grasp the items to be grasped.
[0058] Compared with Embodiment 2, further, the moving component 402 includes a main wheel 402a arranged on the control box 401, and a secondary wheel 402b arranged on one side of the main wheel 402a. A crawler 402c is arranged on the main wheel 402a and the secondary wheel 402b. The main wheel 402a drives the rotation of the crawler 402c. While the secondary wheel 402b supports the crawler 402c, it is also driven to rotate by the rotation of the crawler 402c.
[0059] Among them, the detection component 502 includes a support member 502a arranged on the control base 501, an adjustment member 502b rotatably arranged on the support member 502a, and a detection camera 502c arranged on the adjustment member 502b. The support member 502a and the adjustment member 502b can make the movement and rotation of the detection camera 502c more flexible.
[0060] Among them, the grasping component 503 includes a robotic arm base 503a rotatably arranged on the control box 401, a robotic arm telescopic rod 503b telescopically arranged on the robotic arm base 503a, and a robotic claw 503c movably arranged on the telescopic rod. The robotic base controls the robotic arm telescopic rod 503b and the robotic claw 503c to grasp the items to be grasped.
[0061] Among them, an installation card block 504 is arranged on the control box 401, and a circuit contact plate 505 is arranged on the installation card block 504. An installation base is installed on the installation card block 504. The circuit contact plate 505 on the installation card block 504 is in contact with the circuit contact plate 505 on the installation base to realize the electrical signal control of the hydraulic base 303b.
[0062] During use, before the intelligent inspection robot is ready for work, the staff installs the anti-collision mechanism on the surface of the control box 401 of the intelligent inspection robot, fixes the installation seat 101 on the installation block 504, and the circuit contact plates 505 on the surface of the installation block 504 and the installation seat 101 are in contact. The circuit of the sensing joint in the hydraulic base 303b is closed, and the sensing joint in the hydraulic base 303b works to sense the pressure on the connecting base.
[0063] During the working process, the intelligent inspection robot moves to the working location according to the instructions of the staff. The main wheel 402a on the control box 401 drives the crawler 402c to move, and the movement of the crawler 402c drives the secondary wheel 402b to rotate. The crawler 402c adopts a triangular design. The triangular crawler 402c robot can cope with different road conditions, improving the passing rate of the intelligent inspection robot on the working road surface. Moreover, according to the principle that a triangle has stability, the triangular crawler 402c intelligent inspection robot is more stable during the traveling process.
[0064] The adjusting member 502b, the supporting member 502a, and the control base 501 can be adjusted according to the shooting angle of the detection camera 502c. On the one hand, by adjusting the angle of the camera, images in different directions and positions can be captured more flexibly, which is very useful for scenarios that require observation or analysis from multiple angles. On the other hand, adjusting the position and angle of the camera can help avoid shooting dead angles, ensuring the clarity and coverage of the images, thereby improving the quality of image acquisition.
[0065] The robotic arm base 503a on the control box 401 controls the mechanical telescopic rod 503b and the robotic claw 503c. The mechanical telescopic rod 503b can extend and retract the length of the telescopic rod. On the one hand, the mechanical telescopic rod 503b can control the robotic claw 503c to grab the detection object. On the other hand, the extended robotic claw 503c can grab the obstacles on the surface of the camera, preventing the camera of the intelligent inspection robot from being blocked and unable to detect the obstacles.
[0066] The remaining structure is the same as that of Embodiment 2.
[0067] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not restrictive.
