The push rod end of the electric push rod 2.2 and one end of the connector 2.3 are fixed. The other end of the connector 2.3 is fixed to the upper surface of the guide rail connector 2.4. The guide rail connector 2.4 slides between the two ends of the straight guide rail 1.3 and the ends of the first C-shaped guide rail 1.1 and the second C-shaped guide rail 1.2. Two first grooves 1.31 are symmetrically formed on the upper surfaces of both ends of the straight guide rail 1.3. The upper surfaces of the ends of the first C-shaped guide rail 1.1 and the second C-shaped guide rail 1.2 are provided with second grooves 1.32 that are symmetrically arranged with respect to the first grooves 1.31. A movable groove 1.33 is provided at the middle position of the ends of the first C-shaped guide rail 1.1 and the second C-shaped guide rail 1.2. Two symmetrically arranged second track grooves 2.41 are formed in the guide rail connecting member 2.4.

The mounting plate 2.42 slides and overlaps in the first groove 1.31 and the second groove 1.32. A protrusion 2.43 that matches the movable groove 1.33 is fixed at one end of the guide rail connecting member 2.4. The sliding position of the guide rail connector 2.4 is controlled by the extension and retraction of the electric push rod 2.2, so that the moving platform 3 can switch tracks between the first C-shaped guide rail 1.1 and the second C-shaped guide rail 1.2.
[0030] The mobile platform 3 includes: a housing 3.1, a drive motor 3.2, a first bevel gear 3.3, a rotating shaft 3.4, track wheels 3.5, a second bevel gear 3.6, a guide wheel 3.7, and an auxiliary wheel 3.8. The drive motor 3.2 is fixed inside the housing 3.1 and is connected to a controller 6. The first bevel gear 3.3 is fixed on the output shaft of the drive motor 3.2. A rotating shaft 3.4 is rotatably mounted inside the top of the housing 3.1, with both ends of the shaft extending through the sides of the housing 3.1 and fixed to track wheels. The second bevel gear 3.6 is fixed in the middle of the wheel 3.5 and the shaft 3.4. The first bevel gear 3.3 and the second bevel gear 3.6 are engaged in transmission. Four guide wheels 3.7 are horizontally installed on the top outer side of the housing 3.1. Two auxiliary wheels 3.8 are also installed on the same side of the housing 3.1 as the track wheel 3.5. The track wheel 3.5, guide wheels 3.7 and auxiliary wheels 3.8 are all slidably placed in the first track groove 1.4 and the second track groove 2.41, so that the moving platform 3 moves smoothly in the guide rail 1.

The controller 6 is connected to the user terminal through a signal transmission unit and a cloud server.
[0032] The user terminal is a mobile phone or a computer.
[0033] During use, managers can control the start and stop of the drive motor 3.2 through the user terminal, and manually adjust the extension and retraction states of the two electric push rods 2.2 to control the running trajectory of the mobile platform 3, so that the mobile platform 3 moves along the predetermined trajectory. During the movement, the video and temperature data monitored by the camera 4 and temperature sensor 5 at the bottom of the mobile platform 3 are transmitted to the user terminal, so that the staff can understand the operation status of the user terminal in real time and achieve the early warning effect.
[0034] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 7 The diagram illustrates the working principle of the mobile platform 3 switching tracks between the first C-shaped guide rail 1.1 and the second C-shaped guide rail 1.2:
[0035] When both electric push rods 2.2 are in the extended state, the moving platform 3 can only move within the range of the first C-shaped guide rail 1.1 and the straight guide rail 1.3;
[0036] When both electric push rods 2.2 are in the retracted state, the moving platform 3 can only move within the range of the second C-shaped guide rail 1.2 and the straight guide rail 1.3;
[0037] When switching tracks, for example, when the mobile platform 3 is moving along the first C-shaped guide rail 1.1 into the straight guide rail 1.3, the push rod of the electric push rod 2.2 away from the mobile platform 3 is retracted, so that after the mobile platform 3 leaves the straight guide rail 1.3, it directly enters the second C-shaped guide rail 1.2. At this time, the push rod of the other electric push rod 2.2 is also retracted, thereby ensuring the normal movement of the mobile platform 3.
[0038] When the trajectory is switched again, the mobile platform 3 moves along the second C-shaped guide rail 1.2 into the straight guide rail 1.3. By controlling the push rod of the electric push rod 2.2 away from the mobile platform 3 to extend, the mobile platform 3 moves directly into the first C-shaped guide rail 1.1 after leaving the straight guide rail 1.3. At this time, the push rod of the other electric push rod 2.2 is also extended, thus ensuring the normal movement of the mobile platform 3.
[0039] 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, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
