Self-adapting pipe robot

Abstract

The invention discloses a self-adaptive conduit robot, relating to the field of robot technology, particularly relating to the field of technology about a robot used to test, clean and maintain conduits. The invention comprises a machine body. At least three sets of drive units are evenly arranged along the periphery of the machine body; a slide shaft is arranged on the periphery of the machine body, and both ends of the slide shaft are connected with the machine body respectively; a securing fitting is welded at the middle part of the slide shaft; two slide blocks are coated on the slide shafts on both sides of the securing fitting respectively. Two pressure springs are coated on the periphery of the slide shaft arranged between the securing fitting and the slide block; two reset springs are coated on the periphery of the slide shaft arranged at the outer side of the securing fitting. Both ends of each first connecting rod are connected with a slide block and a roller respectively, and both ends of a second connecting rod are connected with the end part of the slide shaft and the first connecting rod respectively. A power control device is arranged on each group of machine bodies. The invention has sound bearing capacity, and is applicable to conduit work under various environments; and high use value and easy assembly and disassembly are achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of robots, in particular to the technical field of robots for detecting, cleaning and maintaining pipelines. Background technique [0002] Robot technology is a comprehensive technology integrating automatic control technology, mechanical design and manufacturing, artificial intelligence, testing technology, information technology, and computing technology. It represents the development level and integrated application level of the above-mentioned technologies in a country, and also reflects the The level of industrialization of a country. [0003] Today, when pipelines are widely used, the detection, cleaning and maintenance of pipelines have become an urgent problem to be solved. However, the closed nature of the pipeline and the working environment determine the difficulty of this work. Today, through the efforts of scholars from various countries, although various types of pipeline robots have appeared...

Problems solved by technology

However, pipeline robots have not developed as rapidly as we expected. The reason is that the fundamental mechanical structure has not achieved a major breakthrough, that is to say, it is still difficult to realize the technical realization of robots operating in complex pipelines.

Even if individual research institutes use complex intelligent technology and information technology to realize this function, the high price makes it only stay in the laboratory stage

[0005] For the cleaning, repairing, testing, flaw detection and other operations of pipelines, the technology is relatively mature at present, and a variety of powerful and light-weight devices have been developed at home and abroad, but the lack of good carriers for carrying these devices has affected their use.
