[0022] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0023] Example 1, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an inspection robot suitable for centralized parking areas of electric bicycles includes a base plate 1, a fence 2 fixedly connected to the upper end of the base plate 1, a bracket 3 fixedly connected to the upper side of the fence 2, a canopy 4 fixedly connected to the upper end of the bracket 3, three electric slide rails 5 connected at a height on the lower side of the bracket 3, an inspection robot 8 slidably connected to the lower side of the electric slide rail 5 located in the middle, and fire-fighting components 6 slidably connected to the lower side of the electric slide rails 5 located on both sides, with fire extinguishers 7 movably connected to the middle of each of the two fire-fighting components 6;

[0024] The inspection robot 8 utilizes existing technology, including a dual-spectrum camera and a smart vision perception structure. The dual-spectrum camera can identify the location of vehicles and fire sources through a visible light module, while the infrared thermal imaging module can detect abnormal temperatures in batteries and roads. The two are integrated for monitoring, achieving visual positioning and temperature warning, reducing false alarm rates, and providing accurate coordinates of the ignition point for the fire-fighting component 6.

[0025] In daily use, electric bicycle owners can park their electric bicycles inside the enclosure 2. Several smart charging piles are installed on the top of the base plate 1, and owners can use the charging piles to charge their electric bicycles. The inspection robot 8 moves back and forth under the drive of the electric slide rail 5 to monitor the parking and charging status of electric bicycles inside the enclosure 2.

[0026] Example 2: Based on Example 1, this example adds a fire-fighting component 6, which can provide early warning when the inspection robot detects hidden hazards such as battery overheating or aging wiring, and move the fire extinguisher to the fire point to extinguish the fire, thereby improving fire-fighting efficiency.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, the fire-fighting component 6 includes a rotating part 61 that is slidably connected to the lower side of the electric slide rail 5. An adjusting part 62 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the rotating part 61. Four fixing parts 63 arranged in a ring array are threadedly connected to the lower side of the adjusting part 62.

[0028] like Figure 4 As shown, the rotating part 61 includes a housing 611 slidably connected to the lower side of the electric slide rail 5. A gear 612 is rotatably connected to the middle of the bottom wall of the inner surface of the housing 611, and a gear 613 is rotatably connected to one side of the bottom wall of the inner surface of the housing 611. The gear 612 and the gear 613 mesh with each other. A motor 614 is fixedly connected to the top wall of the inner surface of the housing 611. The output end of the motor 614 is fixedly connected to the gear 613 through a coupling.

[0029] like Figure 5 As shown, the adjustment part 62 includes an I-shaped plate 621 rotatably connected to the lower end of the outer shell 611. A cylindrical shell 622 is provided on the lower side of the I-shaped plate 621. A connecting rod 623 is rotatably connected to the left side of both ends of the I-shaped plate 621. A connecting rod 624 is rotatably connected to the middle of both ends of the I-shaped plate 621. Two electric actuators 625 are rotatably connected to the lower end of the I-shaped plate 621. The output ends of the two electric actuators 625 are rotatably connected to a connecting rod 624 that is close to each other.

[0030] In this embodiment, when the inspection robot 8 detects a fire, it transmits a signal to the PLC controller installed at the entrance of the fence 2. The PLC controller then transmits the fire signal to the electric slide rail 5, the fire-fighting components 6, and platforms such as the duty room and property management.

[0031] After receiving the signal, the electric slide rail 5 and the fire extinguishing component 6 move the fire extinguishing component 6 to the coordinates of the fire point. The motor 614 drives the gear 2 613 and the gear 1 612 to rotate. The gear 1 612 drives the adjusting part 62 to rotate, turning the nozzle of the fire extinguisher 7 towards the fire point. Then, the electric push rod 625 pushes the connecting rod 2 624 to move and rotate, which in turn drives the connecting rod 1 623 to rotate. The connecting rod 2 624 and the connecting rod 1 623 together push the cylindrical housing 622 and the fire extinguisher 7 inside to rotate, so that the nozzle of the fire extinguisher 7 is aimed at the fire point, and then the fire extinguisher 7 is used to extinguish the fire.

[0032] Fire extinguisher 7 is an intelligent fire extinguisher in the existing technology. After receiving the signal from the PLC controller, it connects to the fire extinguisher nozzle pipeline through a solenoid valve or an electric ball valve to spray the fire extinguishing medium to extinguish the fire.

[0033] Specifically, both connecting rods 623 and 624 are rotatably connected to the cylindrical housing 622.

[0034] Furthermore, the lower side of gear 612 passes through the outer shell 611 and is fixedly connected to the I-beam plate 621.

[0035] like Figure 5 As shown, the fixing part 63 includes a threaded rod 631 threadedly connected to one side of the cylindrical housing 622, and the threaded rod 631 passes through the cylindrical housing 622 and is fixedly connected to a clamping plate 632.

[0036] After the fire is extinguished, the used fire extinguisher 7 can be replaced. Rotate the threaded rod 631 to move it away from the fire extinguisher 7, so that the four clamping plates 632 are separated from the outer surface of the fire extinguisher 7. The fire extinguisher 7 can then be removed from the fire-fighting assembly 6. After that, place the new fire extinguisher 7 into the middle of the cylindrical housing 622, and then rotate the threaded rod 631 to push the clamping plates 632 to clamp and fix the fire extinguisher 7.

[0037] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
