Abstract

This utility model discloses an intelligent spraying robot for corrosion protection of the outer wall of a large storage tank with adaptive curved surfaces, specifically relating to the field of storage tank spraying technology. It includes a frame, a camera module, and wings. The wings are installed on the outer wall of the frame, and a base box is installed at the bottom of the frame. An adaptive pressure-contact component is provided at the front end of the base box. This utility model, by incorporating a protective tube and a pressure-contact rod, allows the front end of the pressure-contact rod to protrude beyond the wing during contact with the outer wall of the storage tank after the device is raised. This allows it to contact the tank wall first, and a spring assists in collision buffering. Through the protective tube, pressure-contact rod, and spring, the device maintains its safety while adhering to the tank wall. A ball bearing at the front end of the pressure-contact rod reduces friction when it contacts the tank wall, thus achieving an adaptive pressure-contact protection function for the spraying robot during use.

The main functions of spray painting for corrosion protection of large storage tanks include extending service life, improving safety, and ensuring the quality of stored goods. Spray painting for corrosion protection forms a protective layer on the surface of the storage tank, isolating it from external corrosive media and slowing down the rate of metal oxidation, thereby extending the service life of the storage tank.

[0003] The intelligent spraying robot for anti-corrosion of large storage tanks is not convenient to get close to the outer wall of the storage tank when spraying.

[0004] Therefore, an intelligent spraying robot for anti-corrosion of large storage tank exterior walls with adaptive curved surfaces is needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an intelligent spraying robot for corrosion protection of the outer wall of a large storage tank with adaptive curved surfaces, so as to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the spraying robot is not convenient to get close to the outer wall surface of the storage tank for spraying operations.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an intelligent spraying robot for anti-corrosion of the outer wall of a large storage tank with adaptive curved surfaces, comprising a frame, a camera module, and wings. The front end of the frame is provided with a front groove, and the camera module is movably installed inside the front groove. Wings are installed on the outer side wall of the frame. A base box is installed at the bottom end of the frame. An adaptive pressure assembly is provided at the front end of the base box. The adaptive pressure assembly includes a protective tube, a pressure rod, a roller groove, a ball bearing, a slider, and a spring. The protective tube is installed at the front end of the base box, and the pressure rod is movably installed inside the protective tube. The front end of the pressure rod extends to the outside of the protective tube. A roller groove is provided at the front end of the pressure rod, and a ball bearing is movably installed inside the roller groove. A slider is fixed at the rear end of the pressure rod, and a spring is installed at the rear end of the slider.

[0007] As a further technical solution of this utility model, two sets of protective pipes are installed at the front end of the bottom box, and the two sets of protective pipes are symmetrically distributed.

[0008] As a further technical solution of this utility model, a slot is provided on the surface of the rear end of the bottom box, a socket is provided at the rear end of the slot, a compression paint can is inserted into the front end of the socket, a pressure nozzle is movably installed at the front end of the compression paint can, and a pressure plate is installed on the outer side wall of the pressure nozzle.

[0009] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the slot is provided with an internal thread, and the socket is provided with an external thread.

[0010] As a further technical solution of this utility model, a guide ring is installed at the front end of the bottom box, a spray nozzle is movably installed inside the guide ring, a pressure ring is fixed at the rear end inside the spray nozzle, and the rear end of the pressure ring contacts the surface of the front end of the pressure plate.

[0011] As a further technical solution of this utility model, a push plate is fixed at the rear end of the top of the spray nozzle, and an electric push rod is installed at the rear end of the push plate.

[0012] As a further technical solution of this utility model, landing brackets are installed on both sides of the bottom end of the base box, a wind duct is installed at the center of the bottom end of the base box, a fan is installed inside the wind duct, and isolation nets are installed at both ends inside the wind duct.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by setting a protective tube and a pressure rod, the pressure rod is movably connected to the protective tube and elastically connected to the protective tube by a spring. After the device is raised, during the process of contacting the outer wall of the storage tank, the front end of the pressure rod protrudes from the wing position and can contact the tank wall first. The spring can assist in collision buffering. Through the protective tube, pressure rod and spring, the auxiliary device can adhere to the tank wall while maintaining its own safety. The ball located at the front end of the pressure rod can reduce the friction when the pressure rod contacts the tank wall during the process of moving along the tank wall. This realizes the adaptive pressure protection function when the spraying robot is used.

[0014] With a slot and a compressed paint can, the compressed paint can is inserted into the slot at the rear of the base box after being snapped into the socket. After installation and fixation through threaded engagement, the pressure ring on the inside of the spray gun contacts the pressure-sensitive nozzle at the front of the compressed paint can. Activating the electric push rod can pull the spray gun through the push plate, and the pressure ring presses the pressure-sensitive nozzle to perform the painting process. This makes the installation and use of the compressed paint can of the painting robot convenient.

[0015] By installing an air duct located at the center of the bottom of the base box, the fan inside the air duct can be activated to apply lateral thrust. The auxiliary device contacts the tank wall, thus realizing the lateral auxiliary function when the painting robot is in use. Attached Figure Description

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.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides an embodiment of an intelligent spraying robot for anti-corrosion of the outer wall of a large storage tank with adaptive curved surfaces, including a frame 1, a camera module 3, and wings 4. The front end of the frame 1 is provided with a front groove 2, and the camera module 3 is movably installed inside the front groove 2. The wings 4 are installed on the outer side wall of the frame 1. The bottom end of the frame 1 is provided with a base box 5. The front end of the base box 5 is provided with an adaptive pressure assembly, which includes a protective tube 6, a pressure rod 7, a roller groove 8, a ball bearing 9, a slider 10, and a spring 11. The protective tube 6 is installed at the front end of the base box 5. Two sets of protective tubes 6 are installed at the front end of the base box 5. The two sets of protective tubes 6 are symmetrically distributed. The pressure rod 7 is movably installed inside the protective tube 6. The front end of the pressure rod 7 extends to the outside of the protective tube 6. The front end of the pressure rod 7 is provided with a roller groove 8. The ball bearing 9 is movably installed inside the roller groove 8. The rear end of the pressure rod 7 is fixed with a slider 10. The rear end of the slider 10 is installed with a spring 11.

[0024] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, during use, two sets of protective tubes 6 are symmetrically distributed at the front end of the bottom box 5, protruding from the upper wing 4. When close to the tank wall, the elastically telescopic contact rod 7 at the front end of the protective tube 6 contacts the tank wall first, ensuring that while contacting the tank wall, it does not affect the normal use of the wing 4. The ball bearing 9, which is movably installed at the front end of the contact rod 7, can reduce the friction between the tube and the tank wall during the movement.

[0025] The rear end of the base box 5 is provided with a slot 12, the rear end of the slot 12 is provided with a socket 13, the slot 12 is provided with an internal thread, the socket 13 is provided with an external thread, a compression paint can 14 is inserted into the front end of the socket 13, a pressure nozzle 15 is movably installed at the front end of the compression paint can 14, a pressure plate 16 is installed on the outer side wall of the pressure nozzle 15, a guide ring 17 is installed at the front end of the base box 5, a spray cylinder 18 is movably installed inside the guide ring 17, a pressure ring 19 is fixed at the rear end inside the spray cylinder 18, the rear end of the pressure ring 19 contacts the front end surface of the pressure plate 16, a push plate 20 is fixed at the rear end of the top of the spray cylinder 18, and an electric push rod 21 is installed at the rear end of the push plate 20.

[0026] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, when using it, first insert the compressed paint can 14 into the inside of the socket 13, and then insert it into the slot 12 at the end of the bottom box 5. Rotate the socket 13 to complete the installation of the compressed paint can 14 through the thread. At this time, the touch-sensitive nozzle 15 at the front end of the compressed paint can 14 contacts the pressure ring 19 inside the spray cylinder 18. Start the electric push rod 21, and the spray cylinder 18 can be moved inward through the push plate 20. The pressure ring 19 presses the touch-sensitive nozzle 15. After the nozzle opens, the paint can be sprayed outward along the spray cylinder 18.

[0027] Both sides of the bottom of the base box 5 are equipped with landing brackets 22, and a wind duct 23 is installed at the center of the bottom of the base box 5. A fan 24 is installed inside the wind duct 23, and isolation nets 25 are installed at both ends inside the wind duct 23.

[0028] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, when in use, when the fan 24 inside the air duct 23 at the bottom center of the bottom box 5 is started, a lateral thrust can be generated. The auxiliary device contacts the tank wall, and the isolation net 25 located at the front and rear openings of the air duct 23 can prevent debris from affecting the normal use of the fan 24.

[0029] Working principle: In use, first install the compressed paint can 14. After inserting the compressed paint can 14 into the inside of the socket 13, insert it into the slot 12 at the rear end of the base box 5. Rotate the socket 13 to complete the installation of the compressed paint can 14 through the thread. At this time, the pressure nozzle 15 at the front end of the compressed paint can 14 contacts the pressure ring 19 inside the spray tube 18. The auxiliary device 4 rises along the can wall. At the same time, when the fan 24 inside the air duct 23 at the bottom center of the base box 5 is started, a lateral thrust is generated. The auxiliary device contacts the can wall, and the isolation net 25 located at the front and rear openings of the air duct 23... This prevents debris from affecting the normal operation of the fan 24. During the contact process between the device and the tank wall, the elastically telescopic contact rod 7 at the front end of the protective tube 6 contacts the tank wall first, ensuring that the contact with the tank wall does not affect the normal operation of the wing 4. The ball bearing 9, which is movably installed at the front end of the contact rod 7, can reduce the friction between the device and the tank wall during the movement. During this process, the electric push rod 21 is activated, which can drive the spray cylinder 18 to move inward through the push plate 20. The pressure ring 19 presses the contact nozzle 15. After the nozzle opens, the paint can be sprayed outward along the spray cylinder 18. At this time, it is only necessary to control the device to move along the tank wall to perform the painting process.
