[0021] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0022] Depend on Figures 1 to 5A mobile firefighting robot is provided, comprising a vehicle body 1, with a walking mechanism installed on the front and rear sides of the vehicle body 1. The walking mechanism includes a drive wheel 2, a track 3, a guide wheel 4, and multiple support wheels 5. The drive wheel 2 is mounted on the vehicle body 1 and is driven by a drive device on the vehicle body 1. A suspension 6 is fixed on the vehicle body 1 and located inside the track 3. The multiple support wheels 5 are rotatably connected to the suspension 6, and the guide wheels 4 are rotatably connected to the suspension 6. The drive wheel 2, support wheels 5, and guide wheels 4 are sequentially arranged inside the track 3.
[0023] The vehicle body 1 has a water inlet 7 on the right side. A support arm 8 is rotatably connected to the vehicle body 1. A fire monitor 9 is sway-connected to the support arm 8. The fire monitor 9 is connected to the water inlet 7. An infrared thermal imager 10 is installed on one side of the fire monitor 9. A searchlight 11 is installed on the other side of the fire monitor 9. A laser aiming device 12 is installed on the searchlight 11. Lighting lights 13 are installed on the front and rear sides of the support arm 8. A light strip 14 is installed around the circumference of the vehicle body 1. A warning light 15 and multiple sprinkler heads 16 are installed on the top of the vehicle body 1.
[0024] The tilt angle of the fire monitor 9 is 0 to 60°, and the rotation angle of the support arm 8 is -25° to +25°.
[0025] To better protect the guide wheel 4 and prevent foreign objects from entering the guide wheel 4, a protective plate 17 located on the outside of the guide wheel 4 is installed on the vehicle body 1.
[0026] The inlet 7 is connected to a DN65 / 80 quick connector, a DN65 / 80 standard connector, or a 360° rotary connector.
[0027] To facilitate the lifting of the vehicle body 1 by staff, two handles 18 are fixed on the front and rear sides of the vehicle body 1 respectively. The handles 18 are located above the tracks 3 and are used by firefighters when deploying and retrieving the firefighting robot. The inner space has good passage and can be easily gripped even when wearing firefighting gloves.
[0028] To facilitate wireless image transmission and real-time wireless linkage, an image transmission antenna 19 is installed on the vehicle body 1.
[0029] A data transmission antenna 20 is installed on the right side of the vehicle body 1. The data transmission antenna 20 adopts a flexible design, which can avoid damage to the antenna when moving the fire-fighting robot. The walking action of the fire-fighting robot and the action of the fire water cannon 9 are controlled through this antenna, with a transmission distance of ≥200m.
[0030] The vehicle body 1 houses a battery, and the exterior of the vehicle body 1 is equipped with a power display screen 21, a charging port 22, a main power switch 23, and an emergency stop button 24, all electrically connected to the battery. The power display screen 21 shows the remaining battery power in real time, reminding the operator to charge the battery promptly. The charging port 22 is used to charge the fire robot. The main power switch 23 is the main power switch for the fire robot, allowing for power-on and power-off operations. The emergency stop button 24 is used for emergency braking; pressing this button immediately stops all actions of the fire robot, and it can only be operated normally after resetting.
[0031] To facilitate the detection of obstacles in front of the vehicle body 1, a laser sensor 25 is installed on the left side of the vehicle body 1.
[0032] In use, the inlet 7 is connected to the fire hose, and the vehicle body 1 begins to move. The battery powers the drive unit, which drives the drive wheel 2 to rotate. The drive wheel 2 then drives the track 3, support wheel 5, and guide wheel 4 together. The track 3 is an all-terrain high-performance track made of flame-retardant rubber with embedded Kevlar fibers, adaptable to various harsh road conditions such as high temperature, high pressure, extreme cold, gravel, sharp objects, and mountain roads. When the vehicle body 1 moves to a suitable position, the support arm 8 is rotated, causing the fire monitor 9 to rotate at a suitable angle. Then, the swing angle of the fire monitor 9 is adjusted to activate it. The rated flow rate of the fire monitor 9 is 20 L / s, and the rated pressure is 0.8 L / s. MPa, the fire monitor 9 can spray water to the fire. An infrared thermal imager 10 is installed on one side of the fire monitor 9 for operation of firefighting robots beyond visual range and for object recognition and temperature detection. A searchlight 11 is installed on the other side of the fire monitor 9. A laser aiming device 12 is installed on the searchlight 11. The searchlight 11 and the laser pointing system can provide additional lighting and aiming assistance for firefighters when operating at night.
[0033] The warning lights 15 on the vehicle body 1 can provide optical warnings to the surrounding area while in motion to ensure safety. The flashing warning lights can also inform the operator of their own position. The headlights 13 on both sides of the vehicle body 1 can provide auxiliary lighting for firefighters during nighttime operations. The light strip 14 around the vehicle body 1 is a waterproof LED light strip, which can provide additional lighting for the surrounding area.
[0034] The vehicle body 1 is equipped with multiple spray nozzles 16. The spray nozzles 16 spray upwards, and the sprayed water mist falls onto the vehicle body 1, which serves as a water curtain for heat insulation and automatic cooling. This provides cooling protection for the robot itself when it approaches to extinguish fires or conduct reconnaissance.
[0035] This embodiment does not impose any limitation on the shape, material, structure, etc. of this utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of this utility model shall fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
