Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of inspection robot maintenance technology, specifically an inspection robot maintenance platform. Background Technology

[0002] Inspection robots, as core equipment for automated operation and maintenance, have been widely applied in key areas such as power line inspection (e.g., monitoring the condition of high-voltage transmission lines and substation equipment), chemical industrial parks (e.g., detecting pipeline leaks and monitoring reactor temperatures), and rail transit (e.g., tunnel structure flaw detection and overhead contact line wear detection). By incorporating modular equipment such as high-definition cameras, infrared sensors, and gas detectors, they achieve all-weather, high-precision autonomous inspection of complex environments, effectively replacing traditional manual inspection methods and significantly improving operational safety and data collection efficiency. Against this backdrop, the need for regular maintenance of inspection robots is increasingly prominent—not only requiring calibration of core performance aspects such as sensor accuracy, motion mechanism flexibility, and battery life, but also replacing vulnerable components such as the robot casing and cable interfaces to ensure long-term stable operation.

[0003] However, there are still significant pain points in the existing maintenance process. The maintenance process of inspection robots usually relies on manual handling to move them to the maintenance platform. For inspection robots that are large in size and heavy in weight, the handling process is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but the need for multiple people to work together also increases labor costs. More seriously, during manual handling, the robot body is prone to collision with the ground due to slipping of hands, which can cause damage to core components such as precision sensors and robotic arm joints. The repair cost for such damage is often as high as tens of thousands of yuan, and it will also delay the normal execution of the inspection task. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a maintenance platform for inspection robots, which can lift different models of inspection robots to the maintenance platform, effectively reducing the labor intensity of workers.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a maintenance platform for an inspection robot, comprising a base plate, a support device fixedly connected to the base plate, a placement platform fixedly connected to the support device, a mounting column fixedly connected to the base plate, a support column rotatably connected inside the mounting column, a connecting plate fixedly connected to the support column, a gear fixedly connected to the support column, a drive mechanism for driving the gear to rotate fixedly connected to the base plate, a traction mechanism fixedly connected to the connecting plate, two lifting straps fixedly connected to the traction mechanism, and hooks installed on both lifting straps.

[0006] Furthermore, the support device includes telescopic rods fixedly connected to the four corners of the base plate, the output end of the telescopic rods being fixedly connected to the lower surface of the placement platform, and a hydraulic rod for lifting the placement platform being fixedly connected to the base plate.

[0007] Furthermore, a rotating platform is installed on the placement platform, and a button control panel is fixedly connected to the placement platform.

[0008] Furthermore, the driving mechanism includes a driver one fixedly connected to the base plate, a rotating shaft one fixedly connected to the output end of the driver one, and a gear two matching the gear one fixedly connected to the front end of the rotating shaft one.

[0009] Furthermore, the traction mechanism includes a second driver fixedly connected to the connecting plate, a second rotating shaft fixedly connected to the output end of the second driver, a winding wheel fixedly connected to the second rotating shaft, a traction rope fixedly connected to the winding wheel, a rotatable roller installed at the front end of the connecting plate, and two lifting belts fixedly connected to the front end of the traction rope.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] This inspection robot maintenance platform effectively reduces labor costs and labor intensity through automated hoisting and transfer mechanisms. A single person can complete the loading and unloading of the robot, avoiding the risk of equipment damage caused by manual handling. Its height-adjustable placement platform and rotatable worktable design can flexibly adapt to the maintenance needs of operators of different heights and the multifaceted maintenance needs of the robot, significantly improving the comfort and efficiency of maintenance operations.

[0016] 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.

[0017] Please see Figures 1 to 3 A maintenance platform for an inspection robot includes a base plate 1, a support device fixedly connected to the base plate 1, a placement platform 2 fixedly connected to the support device, a mounting column 3 fixedly connected to the base plate 1, a support column 4 rotatably connected inside the mounting column 3, a connecting plate 5 fixedly connected to the support column 4, a gear 6 fixedly connected to the support column 4, a drive mechanism for driving the gear 6 to rotate fixedly connected to the base plate 1, a traction mechanism fixedly connected to the connecting plate 5, two lifting straps 7 fixedly connected to the traction mechanism, and hooks 8 installed on both lifting straps 7.

[0018] The inspection robot maintenance platform of this utility model, when in use, places the inspection robot to be inspected on one side of the base plate 1, adjusts the position of the lifting straps 7, and binds the inspection robot with the two lifting straps 7 and hooks 8. The two lifting straps 7 can be lifted upward by the traction mechanism, thereby lifting the inspection robot upward. When the inspection robot is higher than the placement platform 2, since the support column 4 and the mounting column 3 are connected by bearings, the drive mechanism can apply force to the gear 6, thereby causing the support column 4 to rotate inside the mounting column 3 until the inspection robot is above the placement platform 2. Then, the lifting straps 7 are gradually released downward by the traction mechanism, so that the inspection robot falls onto the placement platform 2 for maintenance. In this process, there is no need for staff to move the inspection robot, which can greatly save the physical strength of the staff. Moreover, this process can be completed by one person. It should be noted that the control of the drive mechanism and the traction mechanism requires the staff to adjust the button control panel on the placement platform 2.

[0019] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support device includes telescopic rods 10 fixedly connected to the four corners of the base plate 1. The output end of the telescopic rods 10 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the placement platform 2. A hydraulic rod 11 for lifting and lowering the placement platform 2 is fixedly connected to the base plate 1.

[0020] Specifically, the height of the staff and the size of different inspection robots vary. The height of the platform 2 can be adjusted by the hydraulic rod 11, thereby adjusting the position of the inspection robot. This allows the position of the inspection robot to be adjusted according to the height of the staff, providing convenience for the staff and making the maintenance process more comfortable.

[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, a rotating platform 9 is installed on the placement platform 2, and a button control panel is fixedly connected to the placement platform 2.

[0022] Specifically, inspection robots are composed of various structural combinations and have many surfaces. During the maintenance process, it is necessary to constantly move the position to inspect each surface of the inspection robot or rotate the inspection robot, which is quite laborious. However, the inspection robot can be placed on a rotating platform 9 (existing technology, such as the JN-RZ-100 model under the Geno brand, which will not be elaborated on here), which allows the inspection robot to rotate without the need for staff to move, thus saving the staff's physical strength.

[0023] like Figure 3 As shown, the driving mechanism includes a driver 12 fixedly connected to the base plate 1, a rotating shaft 13 fixedly connected to the output end of the driver 12, and a gear 14 matching the gear 6 fixedly connected to the front end of the rotating shaft 13.

[0024] Specifically, after the two lifting straps 7 are tied to the inspection robot with hooks 8, and the inspection robot is positioned above the placement platform 2 by the traction mechanism, the driver 12 is started, causing the shaft 13 and gear 14 to rotate, thereby driving the support column 4 to rotate, thus lifting the inspection robot to the top of the placement platform 2. The inspection robot is then slowly released downwards by the traction mechanism and placed on the placement platform 2. The driver 12 is a forward and reverse motor. After the lifting and maintenance are completed, the inspection robot can be moved off the placement platform 2 by reversing the operation.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the traction mechanism includes a second driver 15 fixedly connected to the connecting plate 5, a second rotating shaft 16 fixedly connected to the output end of the second driver 15, a winding wheel 17 fixedly connected to the second rotating shaft 16, a traction rope 18 fixedly connected to the winding wheel 17, a rotatable roller 19 installed at the front end of the connecting plate 5, and two lifting belts 7 fixedly connected to the front end of the traction rope 18.

[0026] Specifically, after the two lifting straps 7 are tied to the inspection robot via hooks 8, the second driver 15 is started. The second driver 15 causes the second shaft 16 and the winding wheel 17 to rotate, thereby winding the traction rope 18, which in turn drives the lifting straps 7 at the front end of the traction rope 18 to lift upward, thus raising the inspection robot. Similarly, the second driver 15 is a forward and reverse motor, which can also lift the inspection robot downward.

[0027] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
