[0061] 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 some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the present invention and its application or use. 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.

[0062] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a drive device, which includes a fixed structure 10, a drive assembly 20, a first reset structure, a first limiting wheel group 40, a second limiting wheel group 50, and a second reset structure. The drive assembly 20 is fixed to the fixed structure 10, and the drive assembly 20 includes a drive structure 21 and a rolling structure 22. The rolling structure 22 is used to abut against the running track 100. The drive structure 21 is driven and connected to the rolling structure 22 to drive the rolling structure 22 to move along the extension direction of the running track 100. The drive structure 21 drives the fixed structure 10 to move through the rolling structure 22. The first reset structure is arranged between the drive assembly 20 and the fixed structure 10, and the first reset structure is used to drive the drive assembly 20 to move in a direction close to the running track 100. The first limiting wheel group 40 is fixed to the fixed structure 10, and the first limiting wheel group 40 is used to abut against the running track 100. A first adjustment structure is provided between the first limiting wheel group 40 and the fixed structure 10, and the first adjustment structure is used to adjust the position of the first limiting wheel group 40 relative to the running track 100. The second limiting wheel set 50 is fixed to the fixed structure 10 and is used to abut the travel track 100. The first limiting wheel set 40 and the second limiting wheel set 50 cooperate to clamp the travel track 100. A second reset structure is provided between the second limiting wheel set 50 and the fixed structure 10 and is used to drive the second limiting wheel set 50 toward the travel track 100. During use of the drive device, the main body 111 of the inspection robot is fixed to the drive device.

[0063] By applying the technical solution of the present application, the drive assembly 20 can drive the fixed structure 10 to move along the extension direction of the walking track 100. Since the first limiting wheel group 40 and the second limiting wheel group 50 are fixed on the fixed structure 10, the drive assembly 20 can drive the first limiting wheel group 40 and the second limiting wheel group 50 to move along the extension direction of the walking track 100, and thus can drive the movement of the main body 111 of the inspection robot. By using the first limiting wheel group 40 and the second limiting wheel group 50 in coordination, the walking track 100 can be effectively clamped to prevent the drive device from skidding or derailing during driving, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the drive device in complex environments. The presence of the first adjustment structure allows the position of the first limiting wheel group 40 relative to the walking track 100 to be adjusted. This adjustability helps the drive device adapt to walking tracks 100 of different diameters or shapes. The first reset structure and the second reset structure can automatically drive the drive assembly 20 and the second limiting wheel set 50 to move closer to the walking track 100 when the drive device deviates from the walking track 100, thereby achieving a rapid reset of the drive assembly 20 and the second limiting wheel set 50, reducing manual intervention by staff and improving the continuity and efficiency of the inspection operation. In addition, the first reset structure, the first adjustment structure, and the second reset structure can respectively effectively ensure the tight contact between the drive assembly 20, the first limiting wheel set 40, and the second limiting wheel set 50 and the walking track 100, thereby ensuring that the drive assembly 20 moves normally along the walking track 100, and at the same time ensure that the first limiting wheel set 40 and the second limiting wheel set 50 cooperate to clamp the walking track 100 firmly, thereby preventing the drive device from falling off the walking track 100, thereby preventing the drive device from slipping when traveling on the walking track 100, improving the adaptability of the drive device to harsh working environments such as high dust and high humidity, thereby ensuring the reliable operation of the inspection robot throughout its life cycle.

[0064] Furthermore, since a driving device is used to drive the inspection robot to move, the workers are prevented from being exposed to a dangerous working environment. Therefore, the use of the driving device makes the inspection robot suitable for dangerous working environments such as those prone to corrosion and explosion.

[0065] Optionally, the running track 100 is preferably a round tube, or a steel wire rope.

[0066] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the driving device includes two driving assemblies 20 , four first limiting wheel sets 40 and two second limiting wheel sets 50 .

[0067] The fixing structure 10 includes a fixing seat 11 , two first connecting portions 12 , four second connecting portions 13 and two third connecting portions 14 .

[0068] The two first connection parts 12 are respectively located on both sides of the fixing base 11 . The first connection parts 12 are swingably arranged on the fixing base 11 . The two first connection parts 12 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the two driving components 20 . The driving components 20 are fixed on the corresponding first connection parts 12 .

[0069] Specifically, in the present application, the first connecting portion 12 is a clamp structure, which is configured to facilitate fixing of the drive assembly 20 while ensuring the stability of fixing the drive assembly 20 .

[0070] Furthermore, the two drive assemblies 20 are respectively arranged on both sides of the fixed structure 10 , which can distribute the driving power more evenly, avoid the deviation or wear that may be caused by unilateral driving, and ensure the smooth operation of the driving device on the walking track 100 .

[0071] In this application, the angle between the axes of the two drive assemblies 20 is set to 60°.

[0072] Two of the second connection parts 13 are located on one side of the fixed base 11, and the other two second connection parts 13 are located on the other side of the fixed base 11, and the first connection part 12 is located between the two second connection parts 13 on the same side, and the second connection parts 13 are fixed on the fixed base 11. The four second connection parts 13 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the four first limiting wheel groups 40, and the first limiting wheel groups 40 are fixed on the corresponding second connection parts 13.

[0073] The two third connecting parts 14 are respectively located at both ends of the fixing base 11. The third connecting parts 14 are swingably set on the fixing base 11. The two third connecting parts 14 are set in a one-to-one correspondence with the two second limiting wheel groups 50. The second limiting wheel groups 50 are fixed on the corresponding second connecting parts 13.

[0074] In this way, through the arrangement of four first limiting wheel groups 40 and two second limiting wheel groups 50, the lateral displacement of the driving device on the walking track 100 can be effectively limited, ensuring that the inspection robot can remain stable when running at high speed or encountering external interference such as wind and vibration, avoiding derailment of the driving device and improving safety performance.

[0075] In addition, the swingable design of the first connecting part 12 and the third connecting part 14 enables the drive assembly 20 and the second limiting wheel group 50 to self-adjust according to the slight bending and undulations of the walking track 100, thereby maintaining good contact and operation even on uneven walking track 100, thereby enhancing the adaptability of the drive device to different walking track 100 conditions.

[0076] Specifically, the fixing base 11 includes a body 111 , two first fixing shafts 112 and two second fixing shafts 113 .

[0077] The two first fixed shafts 112 are respectively located on both sides of the main body 111, and the first fixed shafts 112 extend along the extension direction of the main body 111. The two second fixed shafts 113 are respectively located at both ends of the main body 111. There is an angle between the first fixed shaft 112 and the second fixed shaft 113. The two first fixed shafts 112 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the two first connecting parts 12, and the first connecting parts 12 can be swingably arranged on the corresponding first fixed shafts 112. The two second fixed shafts 113 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the two third connecting parts 14, and the third connecting parts 14 can be swingably arranged on the corresponding second fixed shafts 113.

[0078] The first reset structure includes a first torsion spring 31 . The first torsion spring 31 is sleeved on the first fixed shaft 112 . One end of the first torsion spring 31 abuts against the body 111 , and the other end of the first torsion spring 31 abuts against the first connecting portion 12 .

[0079] The second reset structure includes a second torsion spring 32 . The second torsion spring 32 is sleeved on the second fixed shaft 113 . One end of the second torsion spring 32 abuts against the body 111 , and the other end of the first torsion spring 31 abuts against the third connecting portion 14 .

[0080] With such an arrangement, the first torsion spring 31 and the second torsion spring 32 can automatically restore the drive assembly 20 and the second limiting wheel assembly 50 to their initial positions respectively after the external force disappears, thereby ensuring the stability of the fixing seat 11, reducing the displacement caused by vibration or external force, and ensuring the reliable operation of the fixing seat 11 and its connected equipment.

[0081] At the same time, the above structure is adopted to facilitate the assembly of the first reset structure and the second reset structure, and can ensure the reset effect of the first reset structure and the second reset structure at the same time, with a simple structure and easy operation.

[0082] like Figure 8 As shown, a rotation hole 141 is provided at the end of the third connecting portion 14 , and the rotation hole 141 is rotatably sleeved on the second fixed shaft 113 .

[0083] like Figure 2 As shown, a first adjustment hole 131 is provided on the second connection portion 13 , and the first position-limiting wheel assembly 40 includes a fixing frame 41 and a first wheel body 42 .

[0084] The fixing frame 41 is provided with a connecting hole 411 , which is connected to the first adjustment hole 131 via a locking member 91 . The connecting hole 411 , the first adjustment hole 131 and the locking member 91 cooperate to form a first adjustment structure.

[0085] The first wheel body 42 is rotatably disposed on the fixing frame 41 . When the fixing frame 41 moves along the extending direction of the first adjustment hole 131 , the first wheel body 42 can move closer to or farther away from the travel track 100 .

[0086] Thus, the first adjustment structure allows the first wheel body 42 to move along the extension direction of the first adjustment hole 131, thereby achieving fine adjustment of the distance between the first wheel body 42 and the running track 100. This adjustment capability ensures that the first wheel body 42 can accurately adapt to the running track 100 and maintain good contact and positioning even in the event of minor irregularities or wear on the running track 100.

[0087] The first adjustment structure allows the drive device to adapt to different sizes or shapes of running tracks 100, increasing its flexibility and applicability in different working environments. This design enables the drive device to operate stably on various types of running tracks 100 without the need to frequently replace or adjust the first limiting wheel assembly 40.

[0088] The use of the first adjustment hole 131 and the locking member 91 simplifies maintenance. Workers can easily adjust the position of the first limiting wheel assembly 40 without disassembling the entire drive unit, reducing maintenance costs and time while also minimizing potential malfunctions caused by improper adjustment. Furthermore, machining of the first limiting wheel assembly 40 and the second connecting portion 13 is facilitated, resulting in a simple structure and easy operation.

[0089] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the second limiting wheel group 50 includes a bracket 51 and a second wheel body 52. ​​The second wheel body 52 is rotatably set on the bracket 51, and the bracket 51 is rotatably set on the corresponding third connecting part 14 to change the angle between the second wheel body 52 and the walking track 100.

[0090] This arrangement allows the drive unit to adjust the angle between the second wheel 52 and the track 100, allowing it to adapt to tracks 100 with varying curvatures and inclinations, enhancing its ability to navigate complex terrain. This design allows the second wheel 52 to automatically adjust its angle when the track 100 curves or navigates up and down slopes, ensuring stable contact with the track 100 and improving its adaptability and flexibility.

[0091] Moreover, in the present application, a second groove 521 is provided on the second wheel body 52, and the second groove 521 abuts against the walking track 100. The second groove 521 is adapted to the structure of the walking track 100. Such a setting can ensure the tightness of the cooperation between the second wheel body 52 and the walking track 100.

[0092] Furthermore, the second limiting wheel assembly 50 further includes a transmission shaft 53, which is disposed on the bracket 51. The second wheel body 52 is sleeved on the outside of the transmission shaft 53, and the second wheel body 52 is fixedly connected to the transmission shaft 53 so that the transmission shaft 53 and the second wheel body 52 rotate synchronously. The driving device also includes a tachometer wheel assembly 60, which is fixedly connected to the transmission shaft 53 to calculate the rotational speed of the second wheel body 52.

[0093] With this arrangement, by combining the speed-measuring wheel assembly 60 with the drive shaft 53, the rotational speed of the second wheel 52 can be monitored in real time, thereby calculating the actual movement speed of the inspection robot. This precise speed measurement is crucial for controlling the movement speed of the inspection robot and ensuring its stable operation on the travel track 100, especially in applications requiring precise positioning or speed regulation.

[0094] In this application, the second wheel body 52 is connected to the transmission shaft 53 through a keyway structure.

[0095] Specifically, in the present application, a fixing hole is provided at the end of the third connecting part 14, a connecting part is provided on the bracket 51, a fastening hole is provided on the connecting part, the fixing hole is sleeved on the connecting part, and a third bearing 54 is provided between the fixing hole and the connecting part, the fixing screw 56 is threadedly connected to the fastening hole, and a flat washer 55 is provided between the fixing screw 56 and the third bearing 54 to achieve the fixation of the third bearing 54 and complete the connection between the third connecting part 14 and the bracket 51 at the same time.

[0096] like Figure 7 As shown, the speed measuring wheel assembly 60 includes a speed measuring magnet 61 , a housing 62 , a speed measuring control board 63 and a cable 64 .

[0097] The speed measuring magnet 61 is fixed to the end of the transmission shaft 53 .

[0098] The housing 62 is fixed on the bracket 51 and covers the outer side of the speed measuring magnet 61 . The housing 62 has a communication port.

[0099] The speed control board 63 is located in the housing 62 and is fixed on the housing 62 . The speed control board 63 is arranged opposite to the speed magnet 61 .

[0100] One end of the cable 64 is electrically connected to the speed control board 63 through the communication port.

[0101] With this arrangement, the speed-measuring magnet 61 is fixed to the end of the transmission shaft 53 and rotates with the transmission shaft 53. The relative motion with the speed-measuring control board 63 generates a changing magnetic field, enabling the speed-measuring control board 63 to accurately detect the rotational speed and direction of the transmission shaft 53. This non-contact detection method avoids mechanical wear and improves the accuracy and stability of speed measurement.

[0102] At the same time, the shell 62 is covered on the outside of the speed measuring magnet 61, and the cable 64 is electrically connected to the speed measuring control board 63 through the connecting port, which not only protects the internal speed measuring magnet 61 and the speed measuring control board 63 from the influence of the external environment such as dust, liquid, and corrosive gas, but also isolates electromagnetic interference, ensuring the accuracy of the speed measuring data and the reliability of the speed measuring system.

[0103] The speed measuring magnet 61 is embedded in the groove at the shaft end of the transmission shaft 53 , and the speed measuring magnet 61 is preferably a radial magnet.

[0104] like Figure 1 As shown, the driving device further includes a commutation sensor 71 and two magnet assemblies 72 .

[0105] The reversing sensor 71 is fixed to the fixed structure 10 .

[0106] The magnet assembly 72 is used to be fixed on the walking track 100. The two magnet assemblies 72 are respectively located on both sides of the fixed structure 10, and the position of the magnet assembly 72 relative to the walking track 100 is adjustable. The magnet assembly 72 cooperates with the reversing sensor 71 to control the moving direction of the drive assembly 20.

[0107] With this arrangement, the commutation sensor 71 can detect the magnetic field changes of the magnet assembly 72, thereby accurately controlling the movement direction of the drive assembly 20. This non-contact detection method makes the steering control more sensitive and accurate, and can achieve automatic direction switching without physical contact.

[0108] Furthermore, the adjustability of the magnet assembly 72 means that the magnetic field strength and position can be adjusted based on the characteristics of the track 100, such as its location and material, to ensure the effective operation of the commutation sensor 71. This is particularly important for inspection robots operating in complex and changing working conditions, improving their adaptability and reliability in different environments.

[0109] In the present application, the reversing sensor 71 is fixed on the first frame 73 , and the first frame 73 is detachably connected to the fixing frame 41 .

[0110] Furthermore, in the present application, the driving device includes two commutation sensors 71 , which are respectively located on both sides of the fixed structure 10 , and the two magnet assemblies 72 are arranged in a back-to-back manner. Such an arrangement can further ensure the accuracy of the detection of the commutation sensor 71 .

[0111] In this application, the magnet assembly 72 includes a commutation magnet 721 and a first connecting frame 722. The commutation magnet 721 is fixed on the first connecting frame 722. A second adjustment hole is provided on the first connecting frame 722. A second frame 74 is provided on the walking track 100. The first connecting frame 722 is adjustably arranged on the second frame 74 through the second adjustment hole.

[0112] like Figure 10 As shown, the commutation sensor 71 is composed of a housing 711 and a magnetic switch 712. The magnetic switch 712 is composed of two normally open reed switches and is installed parallel to the commutation magnet 721 of the magnet assembly 72. When the commutation sensor 71 moves to a distance less than or equal to 50 mm from the magnet assembly 72, the reed switch in the magnetic switch 712 changes from a normally open point to a normally closed point, and the signal is triggered.

[0113] Specifically, the housing 711 is made of non-metallic material.

[0114] like Figure 1 As shown, the driving device further includes a positioning sensor 81 and a positioning component 82.

[0115] The positioning sensor 81 is fixed on the fixed structure 10 .

[0116] The positioning assembly 82 is used to be fixed on the travel track 100 , and the positioning assembly 82 is arranged at one end of the fixed structure 10 to fix the positioning sensor 81 . The positioning sensor 81 cooperates with the positioning assembly 82 to determine the position of the driving assembly 20 .

[0117] With this arrangement, the positioning sensor 81, in conjunction with the positioning assembly 82 fixed to the travel track 100, can monitor and determine the specific position of the drive assembly 20 on the travel track 100 in real time, thereby achieving precise control of the inspection robot's movement. This is crucial for accurate navigation and positioning over long distances on the travel track 100 or between multiple workstations.

[0118] In the present application, the positioning sensor 81 is fixed on the third frame 83 , and the third frame 83 is detachably connected to the fixing frame 41 .

[0119] Among them, in the present application, the positioning assembly 82 includes a positioning card 821 and a second connecting frame 822, the positioning card 821 is fixed on the second connecting frame 822, the second connecting frame 822 is provided with a third adjustment hole, and a fourth frame 84 is provided on the walking track 100, and the second connecting frame 822 is adjustably set on the fourth frame 84 through the third adjustment hole.

[0120] Furthermore, in the present application, the positioning card 821 is arranged parallel to the positioning sensor 81, and the positioning card 821 triggers the positioning sensor 81 in a contactless manner. The positioning sensor 81 is an RFID card reader, which is installed parallel to the positioning card 821. When the positioning sensor 81 moves to a distance of less than or equal to 100 mm from the positioning component 82, the positioning sensor 81 detects the information of the positioning card 821.

[0121] The reversing sensor 71 and the positioning sensor 81 are respectively located at two ends of the fixed structure 10 .

[0125] With this arrangement, the roller 222 is sleeved on the outside of the connecting sleeve 221. The connecting sleeve 221 is driven to rotate by the driving structure 21, thereby driving the roller 222 to move along the running track 100. The contact between the roller 222 and the running track 100 is achieved through the first groove 2221. The design of the first groove 2221 ensures that the roller 222 fits tightly with the running track 100, reducing lateral slippage during rolling and improving the driving efficiency and stability of the drive device.

[0126] Specifically, in the present application, the driving structure 21 includes a driving motor 211 and a reducer 212 . The rolling structure 22 also includes a first bearing 223 , a second bearing 224 , a bearing sleeve 225 , a washer 226 and a locking nut 227 .

[0127] The drive motor 211 and the reducer 212 are combined into an integrated structure, forming a reduction motor. A first bearing 223 is mounted on the output shaft of the reducer 212, along with a washer 226. A bearing sleeve 225 is mounted on the outer ring of the first bearing 223, which is positioned and fixed to the end stop of the reducer 212. A second bearing 224 is mounted within the connecting sleeve 221, the outer ring of which is bonded to the roller 222. The connecting sleeve 221 and the second bearing 224 are sleeved onto the output shaft of the reducer 212, with the second bearing 224 in contact with the bearing sleeve 225 and secured by a locknut 227.
