Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning machinery technology, and in particular to a rescue site cleaning robot. Background Technology
[0002] Post-disaster relief and reconstruction work faces enormous challenges. Disaster sites often contain multiple sources of danger: on the one hand, there is a risk of biological contamination, such as the remains of victims, bloodstains, and excrement that may carry pathogens; on the other hand, there is a significant risk of chemical contamination, including hazardous waste from social sources such as cleaning agents, pesticides, herbicides, paints, solvents, and oily substances (such as fuel and lubricating oil from damaged vehicles or gas stations) left at the scene, which can easily cause soil and water pollution and even trigger secondary environmental disasters.

The output ends of the second rotary drive motors 11 are connected to Mecanum wheels 12.
[0027] This invention utilizes robots to replace manual labor in performing cleanup tasks in high-risk post-disaster environments, effectively avoiding direct contact between rescue personnel and dangerous sources such as bloodstains, pathogens, chemicals, and sharp debris. The robot body 1 is equipped with multiple Mecanum wheels 12 at its bottom, enabling omnidirectional movement and allowing for flexible turning, lateral movement, and rotation in narrow, rugged, and unstructured ruin environments. The rotating sweeping mechanism 4 drives the first gear 8 to drive the second gear 9 via the first rotating drive motor 7, thereby rotating the sweeping component 10 to achieve efficient sweeping of scattered rubble, dust, debris, and other debris on the ground. Equipped with a spraying mechanism 3, it can spray water after sweeping to improve environmental management. The vision mechanism 2 at the front end can collect real-time on-site image information, supporting remote control or semi-autonomous operation, improving the accuracy and intelligence of the cleanup operation.
[0028] This embodiment describes a rescue site cleaning robot. The cleaning component 10 includes a connecting frame 13 and multiple brush discs 14. Multiple connecting arms 15 are provided along the edge of the connecting frame 13, and the bottom of each connecting arm 15 is connected to one of the brush discs 14.
