[0003] In the prior art, for example, Chinese Publication No. 216229371U discloses a coal conveyor corridor track inspection robot, comprising an I-shaped track and an inspection robot body that travels along the lower wing of the track. The inspection robot body comprises a frame, with auxiliary wheels disposed on the top of the frame that travel along the top surface of the lower wing of the track and positioning wheels that roll along the vertical sidewalls of the track waist. A camera is disposed at the bottom of the frame. Dust removal brushes are disposed on both sides of the frame parallel to the direction of travel of the auxiliary wheels, and a dust dump chute is disposed on the frame at an angle, outwardly of the dust removal brushes and in the same direction as the dust removal brushes. Advantages of this robot are that, compared with the prior art, the addition of dust removal brushes and dust dump chute allows for simultaneous cleaning of the track during inspection. The robot automatically inspects and monitors the corridor, providing timely feedback on corridor anomalies and improving monitoring efficiency. Dust removal brushes disposed on both sides of the robot body can move with the robot to promptly remove coal deposits from the track, thereby improving space utilization.
