The specific implementation of this utility model is described in more detail below with reference to specific embodiments:

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment of the invention provides a flying wall-climbing robot with modular functional components, including a frame 1, a flight component 2, a movement component 3, a control module (not shown), and modular functional components. The flight component 2 is connected to the frame 1 and is used to drive the frame 1 to fly. The movement component 3 is connected to the frame 1 and is used to drive the frame 1 to move along the wall surface. The control module is connected to the frame 1 and has a first connection port 4. The modular functional components have a second connection port 5, which is detachably connected to the first connection port 4. Specifically, this embodiment enables rapid installation of the modular functional components to the frame 1 through the matching connection of the first connection port 4 and the second connection port 5, while also enabling electrical connection between the two. In use, modular functional components with corresponding functions can be selected and installed according to the needs of different application scenarios, allowing the flying wall-climbing robot to perform corresponding functions in corresponding application scenarios, thereby improving the versatility of the flying wall-climbing robot. For example, when the application scenario is to remove hollow areas from the surface of a building wall, a corresponding hammering mechanism (modular functional component) can be selected and installed on frame 1. The hammering mechanism then strikes the hollow areas on the building wall surface, removing the tarpaulin and facilitating subsequent surface repair. Similarly, when the application scenario is to clean the building wall surface, a high-pressure water gun (modular functional component) can be installed on frame 1. The high-pressure water jet from the gun then cleans the surface. Furthermore, when the application scenario is to inspect the appearance of the building wall surface, a corresponding camera (modular functional component) can be installed on frame 1. The camera then captures images of the building wall surface to assess its quality in subsequent steps.

[0032] As one of the optional implementations of this embodiment, the modular functional components include a hammering mechanism, a camera, and a high-pressure water gun.

[0033] In one optional implementation of this embodiment, the first connection port 4 includes a male terminal 41 and a retaining ring 42, with a snap-fit ​​groove 43 formed between the male terminal 41 and the retaining ring 42. It is easy to understand that the male terminal 41 has multiple male terminals, which can achieve electrical connection when matched with corresponding female terminals.

[0034] In one optional implementation of this embodiment, the second connection port 5 includes a female terminal 51 and a snap-fit ​​boss 52. The female terminal 51 is matched and connected to the male terminal 41, and the snap-fit ​​boss 52 is snapped into the snap-fit ​​groove 43. Specifically, the female terminal 51 has multiple female terminals, which can achieve electrical connection when matched with the corresponding male terminal. Further, the female terminal is disposed on a frustum structure with a certain angle, and the male terminal has a corresponding slot. Through the matching of the frustum structure and the slot, the male terminal and the female terminal can be quickly positioned.

[0035] As one optional implementation of this embodiment, a fastener (not shown) is also included, which securely connects the first connection port 4 and the second connection port 5. The fastener includes, but is not limited to, bolts, screws, and pins. Specifically, in this embodiment, the fastener is preferably a bolt. A first threaded hole 44 is provided at the first connection port 4, and a second threaded hole 53 corresponding to the position of the first threaded hole 44 is provided at the second connection port 5. The fastener can pass through the first threaded hole 44 and the second threaded hole 53 and be tightened to achieve a secure connection between the first connection port 4 and the second connection port 5.

[0036] As one optional implementation of this embodiment, the modular functional component is a hammering mechanism 6. The hammering mechanism includes a base 61, a swing servo motor 62, a connecting rod 63, and a hammer head 64. The base 61 has a second connection port 5. The swing servo motor 62 is connected to the base 61. One end of the connecting rod 63 is connected to the swing servo motor 62, and the other end of the connecting rod 63 is connected to the hammer head 64. Specifically, the swing servo motor 62 can drive the hammer head 64 to reciprocate within a certain angle range. When the hammer head 64 contacts the hollow area of ​​the wall, the hammer head 64 strikes the hollow area, thereby knocking the wall plaster at the hollow area to detach the wall plaster from the surface of the building wall for subsequent repair.

[0037] In one optional implementation of this embodiment, the moving component 3 includes a drive motor (not shown), an active track wheel 31, a track 32, and a driven track wheel 33. The drive motor is connected to the frame 1, and its output end is connected to the active track wheel 31. The driven track wheel 33 is rotatably connected to the frame 1, and the track 32 drives the active track wheel 31 and the driven track wheel 33. Specifically, the drive motor can drive the active track wheel 31 to rotate, and the track 32 drives the active track wheel 31 and the driven track wheel 33. The track 32 transmits power, thereby driving the driven track wheel 33 to rotate, thus enabling the frame 1 to move on the wall surface.

[0038] In one optional implementation of this embodiment, the flight assembly 2 includes a support frame 21, a ducted motor 22, and a flight fan blade 23. The frame 1 has a ducted opening 11, and the support frame 21 is connected inside the ducted opening 11. The ducted motor 22 is mounted on the support frame 21, and the output end of the ducted motor 22 is connected to the flight fan blade 23. Specifically, when the ducted motor 22 is working, it can drive the flight fan blade 23 to rotate, thereby enabling the frame 1 to achieve flight.

[0039] As one optional implementation of this embodiment, the frame 1 includes a housing 12 and a near-wall effect plate 13, with the near-wall effect plate 13 disposed on the side of the housing 12 near the wall. Specifically, the high-speed rotation of the flight component 2 generates a high-speed airflow. Due to the restrictive effect of the near-wall effect plate 13 on the airflow, the high-speed airflow exists between the near-wall effect plate 13 and the wall surface, thereby generating a high-speed airflow between the wall surface and the near-wall effect plate 13. According to Bernoulli's principle, the air pressure on the side where the high-speed airflow is located is low, thereby generating a pressure difference on both sides of the near-wall effect plate 13. Under the action of the pressure difference, it can be ensured that the flying wall-climbing robot can stably adhere to the wall surface.

[0040] As one optional implementation of this embodiment, a power supply 7 is also included, which is electrically connected to the flight component 2, the moving component 3, and the control module. The power supply 7 can supply power to the flight component 2, the moving component 3, and the control module, thereby ensuring their normal operation and improving the endurance of the flying wall-climbing robot.

[0041] This embodiment uses a modular functional component as an example to illustrate the hammering mechanism. The specific implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows:

[0042] First, the flight component 2 is activated, propelling the frame 1 to a preset position on the building wall surface. Then, the movement component 3 is activated, allowing it to move across the wall surface. When the flying wall-climbing robot reaches a hollow area on the wall, the hammering mechanism is activated. This mechanism hammers the hollow area, causing the plaster to break and fall off, thus removing the plaster from the hollow area for subsequent surface repair. When it's necessary to replace a modular component with a different function, the second connection port of the hammering mechanism is disconnected from the first connection port, and the second connection port of the corresponding modular component is installed back onto the first connection port, enabling rapid replacement of the modular component. The flying wall-climbing robot can then perform the next functional operation.

[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
