Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of inspection robot installation technology, specifically to an installation bracket for the track support of a pipe gallery inspection robot. Background Technology
[0002] The utility tunnel inspection robot is an intelligent inspection device specifically designed for underground utility tunnel environments. Equipped with an advanced mobile platform, it can move flexibly in the complex terrain and narrow spaces of the utility tunnel, carrying out inspection work according to a preset route or autonomously planned path.
[0003] Currently, most existing utility tunnel inspection robots rely on dedicated robot tracks and power supply sliding contact lines to ensure stable operation and continuous power supply. However, the brackets used to fix these tracks have certain shortcomings. They are not only aesthetically unappealing but also have issues with structural design and quality control. Furthermore, due to the limited space inside the utility tunnel, when the robot track passes through special nodes such as ventilation openings, hoisting openings, and branch openings, the overhead floor may have openings or obstructions, leaving the robot track without support points and making installation impossible. Fixing the track also easily occupies the original space of the hoisting opening, affecting the original function of that node and impacting the operation and maintenance of the utility tunnel.

[0026] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms indicating orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model; in the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" or "several" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly and specifically defined.
[0028] Please see Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model is an installation bracket for a robot track support for pipe gallery inspection, including a robot track support fixing component 1 and a robot track support 2. The robot track support fixing component 1 is fixed to the side wall by expansion bolts, and the robot track support 2 is connected to the robot track support fixing component 1 by a first bolt 6. The bottom of the robot track support 2 is fixed with an external robot track by a second bolt 8.
[0029] During the use of the mounting bracket in this application, the robot track bracket fixing component 1 and the robot track bracket 2 are assembled to facilitate the fixing of both ends of the robot track bracket fixing component 1 to the side wall, and the bottom of the robot track bracket 2 can be used to hang and fix the external robot track, making construction and operation convenient.
[0030] The mounting bracket described in this application demonstrates superior performance during installation, bringing significant convenience and flexibility to construction. Its unique detachable design allows for flexible fixation of the robot track support at special nodes such as ventilation openings, material inlets, and branch points in pipe racks, ensuring that the functionality of each node is not affected by track installation. The robot track bracket fixing component 1 is secured to the side wall using expansion bolts. This fixing method is not only robust and durable, but also allows for easy adjustment of the installation position according to actual needs. Before laying the track, construction personnel can carefully plan the track route in advance, and then flexibly install any number of mounting brackets according to the planned route, greatly improving construction efficiency and accuracy. It is worth mentioning that the mounting bracket itself has extremely high structural strength, capable of withstanding large loads while maximizing installation freedom. Whether in complex spatial layouts or special construction environments, it can easily cope, providing a solid guarantee for the safe and stable operation of the inspection robot.
[0031] In this specific embodiment, the robot track bracket fixing component 1 includes a main support tube 4 and a sheet support plate 5.

The robot track bracket fixing component 1 is designed to be easy to assemble and install, and is fixed to the side wall by expansion bolts. The installation position of the expansion bolts can be adjusted laterally or longitudinally along the side wall, and the installation position can be adjusted at will according to actual needs.
[0032] When installing the robot track bracket fixing component 1, the sheet support plate 5 is attached to the wall panel. After confirming the position, the expansion bolts are driven into the sheet support plate 5 and the wall panel through the threaded hole 3 to fix the robot track bracket fixing component 1. The other side of the robot track fixing component 1 is installed in the same way.
[0033] In this specific embodiment, the robot track support 2 includes a support tube 7. A threaded hole is opened in the center of the bottom end of the support tube 7 and the robot track is connected by four sets of second bolts 8. The second bolts 8 are evenly distributed at the bottom end of the support tube 7. The support tube 7 is used to strengthen the overall structure of the robot track support fixing part 1 and the robot track support 2. When the external robot track is suspended, it provides a solid guarantee for the safe and stable operation of the inspection robot.
[0034] In this specific embodiment, the bottom end of the main support pipe 4 is provided with two sets of first bolts 6 for connecting the robot track bracket 2; the robot track bracket 2 and the robot track bracket fixing part 1 are detachably connected; the detachable connection method facilitates assembly or disassembly for reuse.
