Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a ground restraint inspection robot. Background Art

[0002] Currently, inspection robots used in power distribution rooms and server rooms usually adopt a track solution. It mainly consists of a track and a robot. The track is installed on the main building, and the robot walks along the track driven by a motor. In addition, the robot is raised and lowered with the help of a telescopic rod track / accessories. The robot is equipped with a camera component, which, combined with the movement of the robot, can capture the instrument panels in different positions of the distribution cabinet / server. However, it is impossible to capture all instrument panels with height differences. At the same time, the problem with existing inspection robots that use tracks is that the installation cost of the track is high and the requirements for the track line layout are high. Therefore, it can only be used in places with flat roads and simple terrain. Utility Model Content

[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of the present invention are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the various components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0020] In addition, the terms "first," "second," and so on, used in this utility model are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, features specified as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one such feature. In the description of this utility model, "plurality" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0021] Moreover, the technical solutions between the various embodiments of the present invention may be combined with each other, but this must be based on the fact that ordinary technicians in this field can implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is mutually contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.

[0022] The utility model provides a ground restraint inspection robot.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, the ground constraint inspection robot provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes a walking base 10, a lifting constraint track 20 arranged on the walking base 10, and a drone module 30 arranged on the top of the lifting constraint track 20. The drone module 30 is equipped with a camera module 50 and a communication module. The drone module 30 can be extended and retracted along the extension direction of the lifting constraint track 20, and the walking bottom has multiple walking wheels 60.

[0024] In this embodiment, the ground constraint inspection robot includes a walking base 10, a lifting constraint track 20 arranged on the walking base 10, and a drone module 30 arranged on the top of the lifting constraint track 20. The drone module 30 is equipped with a camera module 50 and a communication module. The drone module 30 can be extended and retracted along the extension direction of the lifting constraint track 20.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 2 The drone module 30 includes a mounting frame, a power assembly 34 mounted on the mounting frame and capable of driving the drone to rise and fall in the height direction, and a mounting ball 32 mounted on the mounting frame. The camera module 50 and the communication module are both mounted on the mounting ball 32. In this embodiment, the mounting ball 32 is fixed by the mounting frame, and components such as the camera module 50 and the communication module are installed in the mounting ball 32 to maintain stability. It is understood that this application does not improve the specific principles of the camera module 50, the communication module, etc., and therefore existing devices such as the camera module 50 and the communication module can be directly adopted and will not be described in detail here.

[0026] Specifically, the mounting frame includes a first frame body 31 and a second frame body 33. The mounting ball 32 is disposed between the first frame body 31 and the second frame body 33. The power assembly 34 is connected to the first frame body 31. In this embodiment, the power assembly 34 can be controlled by an electric drive. When the power assembly 34 is in operation, the mounting frame is constrained by the lifting and restraining track 20 to only move up and down, thereby preventing the drone module 30 from tilting.

[0027] The first frame 31 includes a mounting base 311 and a plurality of connecting posts 312 connected to the mounting base 311. The connecting posts 312 are connected to the lower ends of the mounting balls 32. In this embodiment, the connection between the mounting balls 32 and the connecting posts 312 improves the stability of the mounting balls 32 during their upward and downward movement.

[0028] The second frame 33 also includes a mounting top plate 331 and a connecting arm 332 connected to the outer edge of the mounting bottom plate 311 and extending outward. The mounting top plate 331 is connected to the upper end of the mounting ball 32, and the communication component is connected to the connecting arm 332. In an alternative embodiment, there are two connecting arms 332, each of which bends in opposite directions and extends outward simultaneously.

[0029] In addition, in the present application, a thermal infrared sensor 40 is provided on the front side of the walking base 10, so that the situation in front of the robot when it is walking can be better detected to prevent collision.

[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural transformations made based on the contents of the present invention specification and drawings, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields, are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
