However, the movement method is completely dependent on the control program installed inside the equipment. There is no external limit device, and there are cases of bumps and collisions during movement, and even collisions that damage the equipment in the data center. Utility Model Content

[0007] Furthermore, the inspection track includes a chassis, a track base is fixedly installed on the side surface of the chassis, a No. 1 motor is embedded in the middle of the upper surface of the chassis, the output end of the No. 1 motor is fixedly connected to the middle of the bottom side of the turning platform, track grooves are opened on both side edges of the track base and the upper surface of the turning platform, racks are fixedly installed on both side edges of the bottom of the track groove, a number of brackets are relatively fixedly installed on the middle of the upper surface of the track base by bolts, and a permanent magnet is embedded on the upper surface of the bracket.

[0008] Furthermore, the inspection device includes a substrate, a magnetic proximity switch is embedded in the middle of the bottom side of the substrate, a host is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the substrate, and a second motor is embedded at the front edge of the upper surface of the host.

[0009] Furthermore, a base is fixedly installed at the output end of the second motor, one end of the base is hinged to one end of a first folding rod, the other end of the first folding rod is hinged to a second folding rod, and a camera is fixedly installed at one end of the second folding rod.

Under the limit guidance of the inspection track, drive the inspection device to perform inspection work along the planned moving route.

[0015] 2. The caster abuts against the upper and lower groove walls of the rail groove, and the rotating third gear is meshed and rubbed by the rack, so as to drive the inspection device to move above the inspection track. The cooperation of the rack and the third gear for movement replaces the traditional caster that relies solely on friction for movement, making the overall structure more precise in terms of the moving distance, so as to avoid errors in the moving distance and the instructions issued by the control program due to caster slipping and other reasons, which affect the fixed-point inspection effect.

Before backfilling and burying the chassis and the track substrate, a bracket embedded with a permanent magnet can be fixedly installed in the middle of the upper surface of the track substrate at the position that needs to be inspected key points. When the inspection device moves above the permanent magnet, the magnetic proximity switch is attracted by the magnetic force to connect the circuit, and taking this as a trigger condition, control the inspection device to expand and carry out detailed inspection work.
