[0019] Secondly, this utility model is described in detail with reference to the schematic diagrams. When describing the embodiments of this utility model, for ease of explanation, the cross-sectional views illustrating the device structure may be partially enlarged, not adhering to the usual scale. Furthermore, the schematic diagrams are merely examples and should not limit the scope of protection of this utility model. In addition, actual manufacturing should include the three-dimensional spatial dimensions of length, width, and depth.

[0020] Example 1 Reference Figure 1-4 This is the first embodiment of the present utility model, which provides an inspection robot for power grid equipment management, including an inspection robot body 1. A connecting plate 2 is fixedly connected to the right side of the inspection robot body 1. A receiving groove 3 is opened inside the connecting plate 2. A swing rod 4 is placed inside the receiving groove 3. The bottom of the left end of the swing rod 4 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the receiving groove 3. The right end of the swing rod 4 passes through and extends out of the right side of the connecting plate 2. An auxiliary mechanism 5 is provided inside the receiving tank 3; A fixing mechanism 6 is provided at the top of the swing arm 4.

[0021] Specifically, by setting up auxiliary mechanism 5 and fixing mechanism 6, the automatic swing cleaning function of brush plate 506 can be realized, and the brush plate 506 can be quickly disassembled and installed, effectively removing obstacles on the road surface and ensuring the stable operation of the inspection robot body 1.

[0022] Furthermore, the turntable 501 and eccentric slider 502 in the auxiliary mechanism 5 are driven by the motor 503, which in turn drives the swing rod 4 to swing back and forth in the receiving groove 3, thereby enabling the brush plate 506 to sweep the road surface. The fixing mechanism 6 achieves quick assembly and disassembly of the brush plate 506 through the cooperation of the fixing rod 603 and the fixing hole 605.

[0023] Example 2 In the second embodiment of this utility model, the auxiliary mechanism 5 includes a turntable 501, an eccentric slider 502, and a motor 503. The turntable 501 is placed inside the receiving groove 3. The top of the turntable 501 is rotatably connected to the top of the receiving groove 3. The top of the turntable 501 extends through and out of the top of the connecting plate 2. The top of the connecting plate 2 is fixedly connected to the motor 503. The top of the turntable 501 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 503. The bottom of the turntable 501 is fixedly connected to the eccentric slider 502. A stroke groove 504 is provided on the left side of the top of the swing rod 4. The bottom of the eccentric slider 502 is slidably connected to the inside of the stroke groove 504. A groove 505 is provided on the right side of the bottom of the swing arm 4, and a brush plate 506 is placed at the bottom of the swing arm 4. The top of the brush plate 506 is slidably connected to the inside of the groove 505.

[0024] Specifically, by setting up the auxiliary mechanism 5, the brush plate 506 can be driven to swing back and forth, thereby continuously cleaning the road obstacles in front of the inspection robot body 1, ensuring its stable passage and improving the operational safety in complex environments.

[0025] Furthermore, the motor 503 is started, which drives the turntable 501 to rotate. Since the bottom of the turntable 501 is fixed with an eccentric slider 502, and the eccentric slider 502 is slidably connected in the stroke groove 504 at the top of the swing rod 4, the rotational motion of the turntable 501 is converted into the reciprocating swing of the swing rod 4 through the eccentric slider 502. Then the swing rod 4 drives the brush plate 506 to swing back and forth. During the swinging process, the brush plate 506 can clean the road surface in front of the inspection robot body 1 in the direction of travel, effectively removing stones, dust or other obstacles on the road surface, thereby ensuring the safe movement of the inspection robot in complex environments.

[0026] Example 3 In the third embodiment of this utility model, the fixing mechanism 6 includes a receiving block 601, a movable plate 602, and a fixing rod 603. The top of the swing rod 4 is fixedly connected to the receiving block 601. The receiving block 601 has a groove 608 inside. The movable plate 602 is placed inside the groove 608. The movable plate 602 is slidably connected to the inside of the groove 608. The top of the movable plate 602 is fixedly connected to the spring 604. The top of the spring 604 is fixedly connected to the top of the groove 608. The bottom of the movable plate 602 is fixedly connected to the fixing rod 603. The bottom of the fixing rod 603 extends through and into the interior of the slide groove 505, and the top of the brush plate 506 is provided with a fixing hole 605, which is used in conjunction with the fixing rod 603. A through groove 606 is provided on the front side of the receiving block 601, and a pull handle 607 is placed on the front side of the receiving block 601. The rear side of the pull handle 607 is slidably connected to the inside of the through groove 606, and the rear side of the pull handle 607 is fixedly connected to the front side of the moving plate 602.

[0027] Specifically, by setting the fixing mechanism 6, the brush plate 506 can be quickly disassembled and replaced, while ensuring its stable connection during the cleaning process, thus improving equipment maintenance efficiency.

[0028] Furthermore, pull the handle 607 upwards. Pulling the handle 607 causes the moving plate 602 to move upwards, and the moving plate 602 causes the fixing rod 603 to move upwards. When the fixing rod 603 moves out of the fixing hole 605, the locking state of the brush plate 506 is released. Then, the brush plate 506 is removed along the slide groove 505. After maintenance, insert the brush plate 506 into the slide groove 505, release the handle 607, and under the reset action of the spring 604, the moving plate 602 and the fixing rod 603 automatically move downwards, so that the fixing rod 603 is reinserted into the fixing hole 605, realizing the quick installation of the brush plate 506.

[0029] Working principle: In use, motor 503 is first started, driving turntable 501 to rotate. Since an eccentric slider 502 is fixed to the bottom of turntable 501 and slidably connected to the stroke groove 504 at the top of swing rod 4, the rotational motion of turntable 501 is converted into the reciprocating swing of swing rod 4 via the eccentric slider 502. Then, swing rod 4 drives brush plate 506 to swing back and forth. During the swinging process, brush plate 506 can clean the road surface in front of the inspection robot body 1 in the direction of travel, effectively removing stones, dust, or other obstacles from the road surface, thus ensuring the safe movement of the inspection robot body 1 in complex environments. When brush plate 506 needs maintenance or cleaning, first move pull handle 607 upward. Pull handle 607 moves moving plate 602 upward, and moving plate 602 moves fixing rod 603 upward. When fixing rod 603 moves out of fixing hole 605, the locking state of brush plate 506 is released. Then, remove brush plate 506 along slide groove 505. After maintenance, insert brush plate 506 into slide groove 505, release pull handle 607, and under the reset action of spring 604, moving plate 602 and fixing rod 603 automatically move downward, so that fixing rod 603 is reinserted into fixing hole 605, realizing quick installation of brush plate 506.

[0030] In summary, by using the combined components of the inspection robot body 1, connecting plate 2, receiving groove 3, swing rod 4, auxiliary mechanism 5, turntable 501, eccentric slider 502, motor 503, stroke groove 504, sliding groove 505, brush plate 506, fixing mechanism 6, receiving block 601, moving plate 602, fixing rod 603, spring 604, fixing hole 605, through groove 606, pull handle 607, and groove 608, the problem of existing inspection robots generally lacking road obstacle removal capabilities is solved. This makes them prone to obstruction when driving in complex ground environments. When stones, mud, or debris get stuck in the wheel set, it not only affects the robot's stability but also increases the risk of operational failure, thus making it difficult to guarantee the continuity and reliability of inspection tasks.
