Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fire protection technology, and more specifically, to a tracked collaborative fire-fighting robot. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of fire protection technology, fire trucks are large in size, rely on manual operation of water cannons, and have difficulty entering narrow and rugged terrains (such as ruins and forests), and their efficiency in locating fire sources is low. Tracked fire-fighting robots are widely used. Although tracked fire-fighting robots have strong terrain adaptability, they still cannot adapt well to complex terrains such as narrow and rugged terrains (such as ruins and forests), and their fire-fighting efficiency and accuracy need to be improved. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This application aims to solve the technical problem of how to improve the adaptability of tracked firefighting robots to complex terrain and improve the efficiency of firefighting operations, and provides a tracked collaborative firefighting robot that works in cooperation with a quadruped robot.

[0004] This disclosure provides a tracked collaborative firefighting robot, including a tracked firefighting robot, a quadruped robot storage bin, and a quadruped robot. The tracked firefighting robot includes a walking track, a main frame, a rotating fire extinguishing cannon, a lifting mechanism, a wireless communication module, and a control system. The walking track is connected to the main frame, the lifting mechanism is connected to the main frame, the rotating fire extinguishing cannon is connected to the lifting mechanism, and the wireless communication module is mounted on the main frame and electrically connected to the control system.

[0005] The quadruped robot's storage compartment is connected to the main frame of the tracked firefighting robot, and the quadruped robot is placed in the storage compartment. The quadruped robot includes a torso and four mechanical legs. The torso contains a controller, a wireless communication module, and a positioning module. A fire source detection device is connected to the torso. The fire source detection device is electrically connected to the controller, the positioning module is electrically connected to the controller, and the wireless communication module in the torso is electrically connected to the controller. The wireless communication module in the torso transmits wireless signals to the wireless communication module in the tracked firefighting robot.

[0006] Preferably, the fire source detection device is one or more of a flame sensor, a hazardous gas detector, a smoke sensor, a humidity sensor, and a camera.

[0007] Preferably, the positioning module is a 5G positioning module, a 4G positioning module, a BeiDou positioning module, or a GPS positioning module.

[0008] The beneficial effects of this disclosure are that quadruped robots enable automatic detection and reconnaissance of fire sources, and the quadruped robot and tracked firefighting robot work together to extinguish fires, improving environmental adaptability and expanding application scenarios, especially suitable for complex terrains such as narrow and rugged terrain. This facilitates efficient firefighting operations and also improves the accuracy of firefighting.

[0009] Quickly locating the source of the fire helps improve the efficiency of firefighting operations.

[0010] The entire tracked collaborative firefighting robot is versatile and highly flexible.

[0018] The application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0019] The specific embodiments described below are merely preferred embodiments of this application, and the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art can make modifications or variations based on the principles, concepts, and spirit of this application, and the resulting technical solutions should all be covered within the scope of protection of this application.

[0020] like Figure 1 and 3As shown, the tracked collaborative firefighting robot includes a tracked firefighting robot 100, a quadruped robot 300, and a quadruped robot storage compartment 200. The tracked firefighting robot 100 adopts a conventional structure found in existing technology, typically including a rotary fire monitor 101, a main frame 102, a lifting mechanism 103, a wireless communication module 104, walking tracks, and a control system. The walking tracks are connected to the main frame 102, the lifting mechanism 103 is connected to the main frame 102, and the rotary fire monitor 101 is connected to the lifting mechanism 103. The wireless communication module 104 is mounted on the main frame 102. The lifting mechanism 103 enables the rotary fire monitor 101 to rise or fall as a whole. The control system is used to control the operation of the lifting mechanism 103, the rotary fire monitor 101, and other units. The wireless communication module 104 is electrically connected to the control system.

[0021] The main technical improvement of this application lies in configuring a quadruped robot 300 and installing a quadruped robot storage compartment 200 on the main frame 102 of the tracked fire-fighting robot 100. The quadruped robot 300 is placed in the quadruped robot storage compartment 200, which may be equipped with a lid. The quadruped robot can be removed after opening the lid. The quadruped robot 300 adopts a conventional structure in the prior art, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the quadruped robot 300 typically includes a torso 301 and four mechanical legs 302. The four mechanical legs 302 are connected to the torso 301. The torso 301 houses a controller 305, a battery, a wireless communication module 303, a positioning module 306, etc. The positioning module 306 is used for positioning the quadruped robot; specifically, the positioning module 306 can be a 5G positioning module, a 4G positioning module, a BeiDou positioning module, or a GPS positioning module. A fire source detection device 304 is installed on the torso 301. The fire source detection device 304 installed on the torso 301 can specifically be a flame sensor, a hazardous gas detector, a smoke sensor, a humidity sensor, or a camera, etc.

[0022] like Figure 4 As shown, the fire source detection device 304 in the quadruped robot 300 is electrically connected to the controller 305, the positioning module 306 is electrically connected to the controller 305, and the wireless communication module 303 is electrically connected to the controller 305; the wireless communication module 303 transmits wireless signals to the wireless communication module 104 in the tracked fire-fighting robot 100.

[0023] Normally, the quadruped robot 300 is stored in the quadruped robot storage compartment 200 and not in use, while the tracked firefighting robot 100 performs firefighting operations. In certain scenarios, such as narrow, rugged terrain (e.g., ruins, forests), or other complex terrain, the lid of the quadruped robot storage compartment 200 is opened to retrieve the quadruped robot 300. (Refer to...) Figure 2The quadruped robot 300 is able to autonomously walk in narrow and rugged terrain. When the fire source detection device 304 detects a fire source, the wireless communication module 303 sends the location information generated by the positioning module 306 to the wireless communication module 104. The wireless communication module 104 sends the received location information to the control system of the tracked fire-fighting robot. The control system of the tracked fire-fighting robot controls the operation of the rotating fire-extinguishing water cannon 101 and the lifting mechanism 103, adjusting the pitch and azimuth angles of the rotating fire-extinguishing water cannon 101. The lifting mechanism 103 can also be used to adjust the vertical position of the rotating fire-extinguishing water cannon 101 to coordinate with the fire source so that the rotating fire-extinguishing water cannon 101 sprays water or fire extinguishing agent.

[0024] The elevation angle of the rotating fire extinguishing water cannon 101 can be adjusted within the range of 0 to 90°, and the azimuth angle can be adjusted within the range of 0 to 360°.

[0025] As can be seen, the quadruped robot 300 enables automatic detection and inspection of fire sources, and the quadruped robot and tracked firefighting robot work together to extinguish fires. This improves environmental adaptability, expands application scenarios, and enables precise and efficient firefighting operations in narrow, rugged, and other complex terrains. The mobility of firefighting operations has also been enhanced.

[0026] It should be noted that, if the quadruped robot 300 detects a fire source, the tracked firefighting robot 100 can move directly to the location of the quadruped robot 300 and then carry out firefighting operations at close range.

[0027] The tracked firefighting robot 100 can carry heavy firefighting equipment, which helps to improve the firefighting effect and efficiency.
