[0038] To ensure installation stability, existing inspection robots typically use bolts or other methods to install the gimbal to the mobile chassis. This method is inconvenient for installation and disassembly, and it is very inconvenient to remove the gimbal and inspection equipment for maintenance.
[0039] To solve this technical problem, this utility model provides a gimbal adjustment and fixing device 1 for an inspection robot, thereby solving the above-mentioned problem.
[0040] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The inspection robot gimbal adjustment and fixing device 1000 includes a chassis 1, a mounting base 2, and a locking frame 3. The top surface of the chassis 1 is recessed with a mounting position, and the side wall of the mounting position is recessed with a mounting groove 11. The mounting base 2 is installed in the mounting position, and the side of the mounting base 2 is provided with a locking groove facing the mounting groove 11. The gimbal 4 and the detection equipment 5 are installed on the top of the mounting base 2. The locking frame 3 is set in the mounting groove 11 and can extend out of the mounting groove 11 to insert into the locking groove and lock the locking groove.
[0041] When mounting base 2 needs to be assembled, simply insert mounting base 2 into the mounting position and adjust the locking bracket 3 so that it extends into the mounting groove 11 of mounting base 2 to secure mounting base 2. By using the locking bracket 3, which can extend out of the mounting groove 11, to secure mounting base 2 into the mounting position of chassis 1, the ease of assembly and disassembly of mounting base 2 and the gimbal 4 and testing equipment 5 on mounting base 2 can be improved while ensuring the stability of the mounting position.
[0042] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment of this utility model, there are two slots, namely a first slot 21 and a second slot 22 arranged longitudinally at intervals. The slot frame 3 includes:
[0043] The frame 31 is slidably disposed within the mounting groove 11;
[0044] Roller 32 is located on the upper side of the frame 31, and the side of roller 32 extends into the first locking groove 21;
[0045] The positioning plate 33 is located on the lower side of the frame 31. The positioning plate 33 extends into the second positioning groove 22 to hold and fix the second positioning groove 22.
[0046] Spring 34, with its two ends abutting against one side wall of frame 31 and mounting groove 11 respectively.
[0047] With this configuration, during the insertion of the mounting base 2 into the mounting position, the mounting base 2 fits snugly against the side wall of the mounting position, causing the roller 32 to press into the mounting groove 11. The roller 32 then pulls the frame 31 and the locking plate 33 back into the mounting groove 11. As the mounting base 2 continues to move downwards, when the second locking groove 22 of the mounting base 2 reaches the locking plate 33, the first locking groove 21 moves to the roller 32. At this point, under the reset action of the spring 34, the locking plate 33 and the roller 32 extend out of the mounting groove 11 again, respectively inserting into the second locking groove 22 and the first locking groove 21. The locking plate 33 then holds the second locking groove 22 in place, thus achieving stable installation of the mounting base 2. Therefore, the entire installation operation of the mounting base 2 can be achieved simply by inserting it into the mounting position, which is very convenient.
[0048] The mounting base 2 includes a pushing device 23, which is disposed within the second locking slot 22. The pushing device 23 is used to push the locking plate 33 out of the second locking slot 22 when the mounting base 2 is lifted. Using the pushing device 23 to push out the locking plate 33 facilitates the removal of the mounting base 2. The pushing device 23 can be either an electric push rod or a manual push.
[0049] When the pushing device 23 is manually pushed, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The upper half of the second locking groove 22 is provided with guide grooves on both sides. The opening of the second locking groove 22 facing the mounting groove 11 is consistent with the outline of the locking plate 33. The pushing device 23 includes:
[0050] Pushing member 231, with both ends of the pushing member 231 slidably disposed in the guide groove, and the pushing member 231 and the positioning plate 33 are on the same horizontal plane;
[0051] Wedge block 232 is located below pusher 231. Wedge block 232 can move upward to push pusher 231 toward locking plate 33 to push locking plate 33 out of second locking groove 22.
[0052] Connecting bar 233 is located on top of wedge block 232 and extends through mounting base 2 to the top of chassis 1.
[0053] With this configuration, when it is necessary to disassemble the mounting base 2, simply pull the connecting strip 233 upwards. At this time, the wedge block 232 presses against the pushing block, causing the pushing block to move towards the locking plate 33, so that the locking plate 33 retracts into the mounting groove 11. Then, the mounting base 2 can be easily removed. The disassembly process is quite convenient.
[0054] In this embodiment, the mounting base 2 has a vertically oriented sliding channel, the bottom end of which connects to the second locking groove 22. The connecting strip 233 is slidably disposed within the sliding channel. This arrangement ensures that the connecting strip 233 slides stably within the sliding channel.
[0055] In this embodiment, a sliding hole is provided on one side of the top of the sliding channel, which connects the sliding channel and one side of the mounting base 2. A pull plate 234 is provided on the top of the connecting strip 233, which extends to the outside of the mounting base 2. With the pull plate 234 provided, when the user needs to disassemble the mounting base 2, he only needs to lift the pull plate 234 to move the connecting strip 233 upward. After the locking plate 33 retracts into the mounting groove 11, the mounting base 2 can be lifted out, making the disassembly process smoother and more convenient.
[0056] The pusher 231 has an inclined surface on the side facing the wedge block 232. The wedge block 232 contacts the inclined surface of the pusher 231, and the pressing and pushing process of the two inclined surfaces is smoother.
[0057] The top of the pusher 231 facing the mounting plate 33 has a slope. With this design, after the pusher 231 pushes the mounting plate 33, the pusher 231 is driven to the opening of the second mounting slot 22. The slope is provided to prevent the top edge of the mounting plate 33 from being held in place when it is pulled out along with the mounting base 2, which would cause the mounting plate 33 to get stuck and prevent the mounting base 2 from being removed, thus improving the practicality of the product.
[0058] The number of the mounting bracket 3 and the pushing device 23 are two, arranged opposite to each other. The product has higher stability, and when removing the mounting base 2, the user can use both hands to grab one of the pull plates 234 to lift the mounting base 2 out.
[0059] The top edge of the mounting position is provided with a guide bevel. This design facilitates the assembly process of the mounting base 2.
[0060] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the technical concept of the present utility model and the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
