Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of heat dissipation device technology, specifically a heat dissipation device for an inspection robot. Background Technology

[0002] With the advancement of technology, inspection robots have been widely used in many fields such as industry, energy, and security. They can replace humans in performing inspection tasks in dangerous, harsh, or highly repetitive environments, such as high-temperature power plants, poorly ventilated underground utility tunnels, and large warehouses. During the performance of these tasks, the electronic components inside the inspection robot (such as processors, motors, and sensors) work continuously, generating a large amount of heat. Therefore, there is an urgent need in the market for a heat dissipation device for inspection robots.

[0003] Meanwhile, the patent specification with announcement number CN214870627U discloses a heat dissipation device for a poultry farming inspection robot, "including a buckle plate, a water tank is provided on the left side of the buckle plate, a buckle block is fixedly connected to the upper part of the right side wall of the water tank and is attached to the buckle plate, a support soft block is fixedly connected to the lower part of the right side wall of the water tank, support plates are fixedly connected to the upper and lower parts of the left side wall of the water tank, a water return heat dissipation component is rotatably connected between the two sets of support plates, a motor is fixedly installed at the bottom of the lower support plate, and bevel gears that can mesh with each other are sleeved and fixed at the output end of the motor and the lower end of the water return heat dissipation component."

[0004] Most existing inspection robots rely on ventilation holes for heat dissipation, which is inefficient and cannot effectively dissipate the heat generated by the internal electronic components. This results in components being in a high-temperature environment for extended periods, making them prone to malfunction and affecting the robot's normal inspection work. Furthermore, the heat dissipation devices lack effective dust prevention measures. When heat dissipation is not needed, external dust can easily enter the robot through the ventilation holes and accumulate on the electronic components, not only affecting the heat dissipation effect but also potentially causing safety hazards such as short circuits.

[0005] Therefore, a heat dissipation device for inspection robots is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, this utility model provides a heat dissipation device for an inspection robot, including an inspection robot body 1. A PLC control module 7 and a temperature sensor 8 are installed inside the inspection robot body 1. A heat pipe 61 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the inspection robot body 1. A second heat pipe 63 is fixedly connected to both ends of the first heat pipe 61. Heat sinks 6 are fixedly connected to the upper and lower inner walls of the inspection robot body 1. Several heat sinks 62 are fixedly connected to one end of each heat sink 6. The inner surfaces of the heat sinks 62 are fixedly connected to the second heat pipe 63. Two cooling fans 5 are fixedly connected to one end of each heat sink 62, and the upper and lower ends of the two cooling fans 5 are fixedly connected to the upper and lower inner walls of the inspection robot body 1, respectively. A dustproof mechanism 2 is provided on the inner surface of the inspection robot body 1, effectively conducting and dissipating the heat generated by the inspection robot body 1 during operation, maintaining the internal temperature of the robot within a suitable range, ensuring the normal operation of various electronic components, and avoiding performance degradation, malfunctions, or even damage due to overheating.

[0028] Specifically, heat pipe 61 is composed of multiple "U"-shaped tubes spliced ​​together, which can increase the contact area between heat pipe 61 and the air or other media inside the robot body, thereby improving the heat absorption efficiency.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, several heat sinks 62 are distributed at equal intervals, and the size of the heat sinks 62 is the same, which ensures the performance consistency of each heat sink 62 during the heat dissipation process. This allows the entire heat sink group 62 to stably and efficiently dissipate the heat conducted from the heat pipe 63, thereby improving the overall stability and uniformity of heat dissipation.

[0030] Furthermore, the dustproof mechanism 2 includes four dustproof plates 4, which are rotatably connected to the opening at one end of the inspection robot body 1. Each of the four dustproof plates 4 has two fixed connecting blocks 21 at one end, with corresponding connecting blocks 21 arranged in a mirror image. Connecting blocks 21 on the same vertical side are rotatably connected to a connecting rod 23. One end of one connecting rod 23 is rotatably connected to a rotating rod 22, and one end of the rotating rod 22 is rotatably connected to a lever 24. The rotation of the dustproof plates 4 can block the opening of the robot body, preventing external dust and debris from entering the robot and reducing the adverse effects of dust accumulation on internal components and the heat dissipation system. When the dustproof plates 4 rotate around the rotatable connection point with the opening at one end of the inspection robot body 1, the dustproof plates 4 and the robot body... The angle formed by the body opening changes, and this change directly affects the effective opening size of the heat dissipation vents. When the internal temperature of the inspection robot body exceeds the preset value and requires complete heat dissipation, the power motor 3 drives the dustproof plate 4 to be parallel to the opening of the robot body, and the heat dissipation vents are fully opened, with the opening area at its maximum. At this time, the ventilation and heat dissipation will reach the optimal level. When the inspection robot body is dissipating heat normally, the power motor 3 drives the dustproof plate 4 to gradually move closer to the position perpendicular to the opening, and the opening area of ​​the heat dissipation vents gradually decreases, and the ventilation volume will also decrease accordingly. When the inspection robot stops working and does not need to dissipate heat, the power motor 3 will drive the dustproof plate 4 to be completely perpendicular to the opening position, so that the interior is in a completely sealed state, which can effectively prevent dust from entering the interior of the inspection robot body and keep the interior clean.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a power motor 3 is embedded on the outer surface of the inspection robot body 1. The power motor 3 passes through the inspection robot body 1 and is fixedly connected to the lever 24, which improves the ease of use and timeliness of the dustproof mechanism 2, and can better control the state of the dustproof plate 4 according to the working status of the robot and environmental requirements.

[0032] It is worth noting that sealing plates 25 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the three dustproof plates 4 at the top, and sealing grooves 26 are opened on the three dustproof plates 4 at the bottom to cooperate with the sealing plates 25. The three sealing plates 25 and the three sealing grooves 26 are coated with sealing paint 27. The sealing paint 27 is made of rubber, which further enhances the sealing effect at the opening of the robot body and effectively prevents the entry of dust, water vapor and other small particles. Even in harsh environments, it can better protect the cleanliness of the robot's internal environment.

[0033] The power motor 3 is existing technology and will not be described in detail. Additionally, this utility model also includes a power supply, controller, and switch, which are not the main technical points of this patent and will not be described in detail. The wiring diagram of the motor in this utility model is common knowledge in the field, and its working principle is already known technology. The appropriate model is selected based on actual use; therefore, the control method and wiring layout of the motor will not be explained in detail.

[0034] Working principle and process: When the inspection robot body 1 generates heat during operation, the heat is first transferred to heat pipe 61, which is fixedly connected to its inner surface. Heat pipe 61 absorbs the heat and transfers it to heat pipe 63, which in turn transfers it to the heat sink 62. Two cooling fans 5, fixed to one end of several heat sinks 62, then begin to operate. This series of heat transfers and the activation of the cooling fans 5 are all managed and controlled by the inspection robot's PLC control module 7. The PLC control module 7 monitors the internal temperature of the inspection robot body 1 in real time. When the temperature reaches a preset threshold, the temperature sensor 8 transmits the sensed temperature to the PLC control module 7. The PLC control module 7 sends a command to the cooling fans 5 to start the heat dissipation process, ensuring that the heat can be dissipated in a timely manner. The rotation of the cooling fans 5 generates airflow, causing air to flow quickly over the heat sinks 62, thereby... The heat from the heat sink 62 is carried away, effectively reducing the internal temperature of the inspection robot body 1 and maintaining its normal operating temperature range. When the aforementioned heat dissipation is in progress, the power motor 3 is turned on, driving the lever 24 to move. The lever 24 drives the rotating rod 22 connected to it to move, and the rotating rod 22 drives the connecting rod 23 to rotate. Under the action of the connecting block 21, the rotation of the connecting rod 23 will cause the dustproof plate 4 to rotate around the rotating connection point at one end of the opening of the inspection robot body 1, thereby realizing the opening and closing action of the dustproof plate 4. When the inspection robot body 1 does not need heat dissipation, the power motor 3 will drive the dustproof plate 4 to close. The sealing plate 25 will cooperate with the sealing groove 26 to further enhance the sealing effect, effectively preventing external dust, moisture and other impurities from entering the inspection robot body 1 through the gaps in the dustproof plate 4, thus playing a good dustproof role.
