Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a laser cleaning robot. Background Technology

[0002] Laser cleaning technology has gradually become a research hotspot due to its advantages such as non-contact operation, high precision, and environmental friendliness. Its principle is to achieve surface cleaning through the interaction of laser light with contaminants (such as ablation, vibration, or vaporization).

[0003] Laser cleaning equipment has a wide range of applications, especially handheld and portable laser cleaning equipment, which can effectively remove rust and oil from metal surfaces without being limited by product shape or operating space.

[0004] However, for some large equipment, such as rails and structural steel, it is impossible to fix the equipment with fixed mechanical clamps. The only way to clean them is by hand using a handheld laser cleaning gun. The whole process is time-consuming. Moreover, in actual operation, the laser cleaning gun plus the fiber optic cable is heavy, and the operator cannot actually hold the laser cleaning gun for a long time. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above problems, a laser cleaning robot was specially developed, which can realize automated laser cleaning of long and large parts.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a laser cleaning robot, comprising: a laser emitter, driven rollers, and a main drive wheel. The driven rollers are located at the front and rear ends of the laser emitter, and the main drive wheel is located between the two driven rollers. The main drive wheel includes a drive motor, a gear set, and an active roller. The drive motor is located inside the laser emitter, and the active roller is located at the bottom of the laser emitter. The drive motor and the active roller are connected by a gear set for transmission.

[0007] Furthermore, the laser emitter includes an emitter body and an emitter handle. The emitter handle is located in the lower middle part of the emitter body, the drive motor is located inside the emitter handle, and the active roller is located at the bottom of the emitter handle.

[0008] Furthermore, the top of the laser emitter is provided with a connecting boss, and one end of the driven roller is connected to the connecting boss.

[0009] Furthermore, the connecting boss includes a first connecting boss and a second connecting boss. The height of the first connecting boss is smaller than that of the second connecting boss. A driven roller located at the front end of the laser emitter is connected to the first connecting boss, and a driven roller located at the rear end of the laser emitter is connected to the second connecting boss.

[0010] Furthermore, a first reinforcing crossbar is provided between the two main bars, and a second reinforcing crossbar is provided between the two auxiliary bars.

[0011] Furthermore, the driven rollers located at the front and rear ends of the laser emitter each include two main rods, two secondary rods, and two driven wheels. The main rods are connected to the connecting boss, one end of the secondary rod is sleeved inside the main rod, and the other end is connected to the driven wheel.

[0012] Furthermore, an adjusting screw is provided between the first reinforcing crossbar and the second reinforcing crossbar.

[0013] The advantages of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. A driven roller and a main drive wheel are installed on the laser emitter. The driven roller can adjust the angle and height of the laser emitter. After the laser emitter is positioned, the drive motor can drive the laser emitter to move forward or backward. The entire cleaning process does not require holding the laser emitter, which greatly reduces the workload of the operator.

[0015] 2. The driven rollers can be folded up. Fold the two driven rollers at the front and back towards the top of the laser emitter. After folding, it can be used normally as a traditional handheld laser emitter. Attached Figure Description

[0016] Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of the laser cleaning robot of this utility model (with the driven rollers in the unfolded state).

[0017] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model laser cleaning robot (driven roller in folded state).

[0018] Figure 3 This utility model presents a schematic diagram of the main drive wheel in a laser cleaning robot.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0020] A laser cleaning robot includes a laser emitter, driven rollers, and a main drive wheel. The driven rollers are located at the front and rear ends of the laser emitter, and the main drive wheel is positioned between the two driven rollers. The main drive wheel includes a drive motor, a gear set, and an active roller. The drive motor is located inside the laser emitter, and the active roller is located at the bottom of the laser emitter. The drive motor and the active roller are connected via a gear set. The laser emitter includes an emitter body and an emitter handle. The emitter handle is located in the lower middle part of the emitter body, the drive motor is located inside the emitter handle, and the active roller is located at the bottom of the emitter handle. A connecting boss is provided on the top of the laser emitter, and one end of each driven roller connects to the connecting boss. The connecting boss includes a first connecting boss and a second connecting boss. The first connecting boss is shorter than the second connecting boss. The driven roller located at the front end of the laser emitter connects to the first connecting boss, and the driven roller located at the rear end of the laser emitter connects to the second connecting boss. The driven rollers located at the front and rear ends of the laser emitter each include two main rods, two auxiliary rods, and two driven wheels. The main rods are connected to the connecting boss, and one end of each auxiliary rod is fitted inside the main rod, while the other end is connected to the driven wheel. A first reinforcing crossbar is provided between the two main rods, and a second reinforcing crossbar is provided between the two auxiliary rods. An adjusting screw is also provided between the first and second reinforcing crossbars.

[0021] The actual usage method is as follows:

[0022] Laser cleaning robots can be applied to many different products and fields. Taking a cleaning track as an example, during use, the two driven rollers are unfolded, first the rear driven roller, then the front driven roller. The driven rollers are connected to the connecting boss with bolts. When unfolded, the bolts are relatively loose, allowing the driven rollers to rotate. After adjusting the angle, the bolts need to be tightened to ensure the driven rollers do not wobble. The adjustment process requires not only adjusting the angle of the driven rollers but also adjusting the length of the front and rear driven rollers. The length is adjusted using a lead screw. Turning the lead screw causes the auxiliary rod to extend and retract within the main rod. Typically, in the case of a cleaning track, the length of the front driven roller is shorter than that of the rear driven roller.

[0023] In addition, driven wheels can be designed with different structures according to actual needs, such as transverse rollers (which serve as guides) and elastic support components (which are used for non-linear path processing).

[0024] After the driven rollers are folded down, it functions the same as a traditional handheld laser cleaning gun.

[0025] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-limiting in all respects. The scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and it is therefore intended to include all variations falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalents of the claims within this invention.
