Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of departure train detection, in particular to an easily disassembled railway departure train inspection device. Background Art
[0002] In order to ensure the normal operation of railway trains, departing railway trains need to undergo technical status inspections such as traction and braking. Currently, most vehicle sections use undercarriage inspection robots to complete the above-mentioned technical status inspections of departing trains.
[0003] However, existing departure train operation yards have a large number of vehicle tracks, most often exceeding 10. When using existing undercarriage inspection robots for technical status inspections, one robot is typically deployed for each track. Furthermore, to prevent the risk of derailment during operation, the undercarriage inspection robot is installed in a vertically oriented track located in the middle of a dedicated track using a position-limiting installation method. The cost of a single undercarriage inspection robot is typically around several hundred thousand yuan. This dedicated undercarriage inspection method is costly, and because the inspection robot is assembled to the track using a position-limiting installation method, it is difficult to disassemble and assemble.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] It should be noted that in the description of this utility model, “upper”, “lower”, “top”, “bottom”, orientation or position relationship is based on the attached Figure 1 Regarding the orientation or positional relationship shown, it should be understood that these orientation terms are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.
[0028] In one embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the easily detachable railway departure train inspection device of this embodiment includes a running rail 200 and an inspection robot 100 assembled on the running rail 200. The inspection robot 100 is provided with a main body 110 and a guide mechanism fixedly connected to the bottom of the main body 110.
[0029] The inspection robot 100 mainly carries detection devices such as an infrared rangefinder and an area array camera, and can transmit the captured images and data to a remote monitoring system for processing or process them autonomously to realize the inspection of various technical conditions of the departing train.
[0030] The guide mechanism includes two sets of guide components, which are respectively located on both sides of the geometric center plane perpendicular to the inspection robot 100 and the walking rail 200;
[0031] Both guide assemblies are equipped with fixed guide wheels 120 that abut the wall of the running rail 200 and telescopic guide wheels 130 that can be controlled to extend and retract perpendicular to the running rail 200. The fixed guide wheels 120 and telescopic guide wheels 130 of each guide assembly are located on either side of the running rail 200. The telescopic guide wheels 130 and the fixed guide wheels 120 are both fixedly connected to the main body 110 and are located in the same plane.
[0032] In this embodiment, the fixed guide wheel 120 can be fixedly fitted to one side of the walking rail 200, and the telescopic guide wheel 130 can be telescopically fitted to the other side of the walking rail 200. When the inspection robot 100 is disassembled and installed, the telescopic guide wheel 130 can be stretched to release the limit of the inspection robot 100, and the inspection robot 100 can be installed by pressing it, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the inspection robot 100.
[0033] When the inspection robot 100 is easy to disassemble and assemble, a single inspection robot 100 can be used to inspect departure trains on multiple tracks, reducing the cost of vehicle inspection at the departure train operation site.
[0034] In one embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the telescopic guide wheel 130 is provided with a fixed seat 131, an elastic component, a fixed plate 132 and a rotating wheel 133; a limit plate 134 and a first connecting leg 135 parallel to the walking rail 200 are provided on the top of the fixed seat 131, the first connecting leg 135 is fixedly connected to the main body 110, the fixed plate 132 is fixedly connected to one end of the fixed seat 131 close to the walking rail 200, and the rotating wheel 133 is connected to the fixed plate 132.
[0035] Specifically, the fixing seat 131 is a channel steel structure with an opening facing the main body 110 .
[0036] The elastic component is arranged on the side of the limit plate 134 away from the walking rail 200, and the elastic component is provided with a limit rod 136 and a compression spring 137, and the compression spring 137 is sleeved on the limit rod 136; the axis of the limit rod 136 is perpendicular to the walking rail 200, one end of the limit rod 136 is fixedly connected to the first connecting leg 135, and the other end of the limit rod 136 is fixedly connected to the limit plate 134.
[0037] The fixing plate 132 provides support for the limiting rod 136, while the first connecting leg 135 secures the entire telescopic guide wheel 130 to the main body 110 and provides support for the limiting rod 136. The axis of the limiting rod 136 is perpendicular to the running rail 200, so the compression spring 137 deforms perpendicularly to the running rail 200, thereby enabling the telescopic guide wheel 130 to extend and retract along the running rail 200.
[0038] It should be noted that the compression spring 137 in this embodiment can be selected with a suitable stroke size or different specifications according to the pressing force between the inspection robot 100 and the walking rail 200 .
[0039] In one embodiment, the telescopic guide wheel 130 is also provided with a sliding assembly, which is arranged on the side of the limit plate 134 close to the running rail 200; the sliding assembly is provided with a slider 138 and a linear guide rail 139 whose guide rail direction is parallel to the axis of the limit rod 136, and the slider 138 is clamped with the linear guide rail 139 in the vertical direction and is slidably connected in the horizontal direction; the slider 138 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate 132, and the linear guide rail 139 is fixedly connected to the main body 110.
[0040] Specifically, during the deformation of the compression spring 137, the slider 138 slides relative to the linear guide rail 139. The function of the sliding assembly is to enhance the vertical connection strength between the telescopic guide wheel 130 and the main body 110, thereby preventing the telescopic guide wheel 130 from deforming during operation of the inspection robot 100.
[0041] A handle 400 is provided at one end of the fixing base 131 away from the running rail 200, and the handle 400 is integrally connected to the fixing base 131. The handle 400 is used to control the compression or extension of the telescopic guide wheel 130.
[0042] In one embodiment, among the two sets of guide assemblies, the telescopic guide wheels 130 of one set of guide assemblies and the fixed guide wheels 120 of the other set of guide assemblies are located on the same side of the running rail 200 .
[0043] The telescopic guide wheels 130 and the fixed guide wheels 120 of the two sets of guide assemblies are arranged in the above-mentioned manner. The telescopic guide wheels 130 are cross-distributed, which can prevent the inspection robot 100 from being offset due to uneven force during driving, thereby causing inspection failure.
[0044] In one embodiment, the fixed guide wheel 120 is provided with a second connecting leg and a rotating wheel 133 , the second connecting leg is fixedly connected to the main body 110 , and the rotating wheel 133 is fixedly connected to the second connecting leg.
[0045] In one embodiment, Figure 4As shown, the two side walls of the track 200 are inclined inward from top to bottom, and the side walls of the rotating wheel 133 are inclined outward from top to bottom. The inclination angle of the side walls of the track 200 is the same as the inclination angle of the side walls of the rotating wheel 133.
[0046] Specifically, the side wall inclination angle of the running rail 200 is the same as the side wall inclination angle of the wheel 133, which can ensure that the wheel 133 of the inspection robot 100 is in surface contact with the side of the running rail 200, achieving close fit, preventing the inspection robot 100 from accidentally derailing during operation, and improving driving safety.
[0047] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation methods of the present invention. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art would be able to make various modifications and improvements without departing from the scope of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the appended claims.
