Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of railway inspection technology, specifically a railway inspection device powered by solar energy. Background Technology

[0002] Railways occupy a very important position in my country's transportation industry. They serve not only as the main means of freight transport but also as one of the preferred modes of transportation for people traveling. However, with the increase in usage time and changes in the natural environment, problems such as changes in the geometric dimensions of railway tracks, deformation of the roadbed and ballast, and loss or misalignment of fasteners occur from time to time. Therefore, railway inspection devices have emerged.

[0003] Traditional railway inspection systems employ inspection vehicles, which are then driven by workers who constantly monitor the railway for damage. This method is not only inefficient but also prone to errors due to manual observation, resulting in high labor intensity for workers. Current technology utilizes automated trolleys that move automatically along the tracks. These trolleys are equipped with cameras that upload real-time data on track conditions to terminal devices, significantly reducing the workload for workers.

[0004] However, to accommodate the width of railway tracks, these automated trolleys are typically quite large, resulting in them occupying significant space during transport and causing inconvenience. Therefore, we propose a solar-powered railway inspection device to effectively address these drawbacks. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a railway inspection device powered by solar energy to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] A solar-powered railway inspection device includes an inspection device body, an inspection camera mechanism on the top surface of the inspection device body, auxiliary housings symmetrically arranged at the left and right ends of the inspection device body, the auxiliary housings being hinged to the inspection device body, a solar panel on the top surface of the auxiliary housing, a battery and a drive assembly inside the auxiliary housing, and wheels at the bottom of the auxiliary housing, the drive assembly being used to drive the wheels to rotate.

[0008] Optionally, the two ends of the inspection device body are open, and displacement blocks are slidably provided on the bottom walls of the two ends of the inspection device body. The displacement blocks and the corresponding sub-boxes are hinged together.

[0010] Optionally, the sub-box is provided with an extension block at one end near the hinge, and the top surface of the extension block is elastically connected to a locking block by a spring. Both ends of the inspection device body are provided with slots for the locking blocks to be inserted. When the end faces of the sub-box and the inspection device body abut, the locking blocks are inserted into the slots.

[0011] Optionally, a magnetic block is provided at the end of the sub-box away from the hinge. When both sub-boxes are rotated to the bottom of the inspection device body, the magnetic poles of the opposing ends of the magnetic blocks on the two sub-boxes are different.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 5 A solar-powered railway inspection device includes an inspection device body 100, an inspection camera mechanism 200 on the top surface of the inspection device body 100, and auxiliary housings 300 symmetrically arranged at the left and right ends of the inspection device body 100. The auxiliary housings 300 are hinged to the inspection device body 100. A solar panel 301 is provided on the top surface of the auxiliary housing 300. A battery and a drive assembly (not shown in the figure) are provided inside the auxiliary housing 300. A traveling wheel 302 is provided at the bottom of the auxiliary housing 300, and the drive assembly is used to drive the traveling wheel 302 to rotate. The solar panel 301 is used to power the battery, and the battery is electrically connected to the drive assembly to power the drive assembly.

[0024] The inspection device body 100 has open ends. Displacement blocks 101 are slidably mounted on the bottom walls of both ends of the inspection device body 100. The displacement blocks 101 and corresponding auxiliary housings 300 are hinged together. Sliding openings 102 distributed along the length of the inspection device body 100 are provided on the bottom walls of both ends, and the displacement blocks 101 are slidably connected to the sliding openings 102. That is, the auxiliary housing 300 is hinged to the bottom surface of the displacement blocks 101, and the displacement blocks 101 can slide along the length of the inspection device body 100.

[0025] Furthermore, the auxiliary housing 300 is provided with an extension block 303 at one end near the hinge. The top surface of the extension block 303 is elastically connected to a locking block 304 by a spring. Both ends of the inspection device body 100 have slots 103 for the locking blocks 304 to be inserted into. When the end faces of the auxiliary housing 300 and the inspection device body 100 abut, the locking blocks 304 are inserted into the slots 103. Specifically, in this embodiment, when the displacement block 101 is located inside the sliding port 102 and away from the center of the inspection device body 100, the extension block 303 is located outside the inspection device body 100.

[0026] Specifically, in this embodiment, the surface of the extension block 303 is provided with a groove, and a locking block 304 is connected to the groove by a spring. The locking block 304 is wedge-shaped and has a bevel at one end. Its function is to facilitate the insertion of the extension block 303 into the end of the inspection device body 100.

[0027] In some embodiments of this application, a magnetic block 305 is provided at the end of the secondary housing 300 away from the hinge. When both secondary housings 300 are rotated to the bottom of the inspection device body 100, the opposing magnetic poles of the magnetic blocks 305 on the two secondary housings 300 are opposite. The bottom wall of the inspection device body 100 is concave in the middle, and a handle 104 is provided on one side wall of the inspection device body 100. That is, when the secondary housing 300 is rotated to the bottom of the hinge, the magnetic blocks 305 on the two secondary housings 300 are opposite. Figure 2 In the indicated state, the walking wheels 302 can be retracted into the bottom recess of the inspection device body 100, allowing the auxiliary housing 300 to fit flush with the bottom surface of the inspection device body 100. Additionally, the handle 104 facilitates carrying by the user.

[0028] In summary, in specific applications, under the usage conditions, this embodiment, as follows: Figure 1 As shown, at this time, the two auxiliary boxes 300 are respectively snapped and fixed at both ends of the inspection device body 100, and the two walking wheels 302 can be located exactly on the two tracks of the railway. The drive component is used to drive the walking wheels 302 to rotate, thereby driving the device to move along the railway. The inspection camera mechanism 200 is used to capture the scene along the road and transmit the scene to the terminal device in real time, so that the staff can view it.

[0029] Additionally, when this device needs to be carried, manually push the locking block 304 out of the locking slot 103, then pull the two sub-boxes 300 outwards, causing the extension block 303 to move out from the end of the inspection device body 100. Then, flip the sub-boxes 300 half a turn so that they fit against the bottom surface of the inspection device body 100. Finally, bring the two sub-boxes 300 closer together so that the magnetic blocks 305 at their ends attract each other to fix the sub-boxes 300. When folded, the product has a box-like shape, making it easy to carry and transport.
